Dear Seeker of Health:
The whole-food supplements in our
catalogue represent the cornerstones necessary for maintaining vibrant health or
overcoming a health challenge. Pure water, vitamins, minerals, enzymes,
probiotic bacteria, fibre, green superfoods and essential fatty acids are the
raw materials and tools necessary for nourishing and building the body.
The quality of the nutritional
supplements and food we eat will determine to a large extent how well we look,
feel, think and grow. Quality food provides vital nutrients for cellular
metabolism of energy molecules while allowing the cells to efficiently eliminate
waste products. Our exceptional whole-food supplements can improve the body’s
nutritional status and well-being no matter how ideal we feel our present eating
habits may be.
The restoration and maintenance
of ideal biological terrain including body and brain function can be achieved by
re-acidifying the stomach and the colon. The ideal colon pH allows for the
proliferation of resident friendly bacteria (including acidophillus), which in
turn eliminates parasites, pathogenic bacteria, putrefaction and mucoid plaque.
The blood should be alkaline while the stomach should be acidic in order to
break down proteins and eliminate incoming parasites. The consumption of a
natural diet with appropriate supplementation promotes a return to the correct
pH levels needed in each system of the body. Usually people who feel like they
have too much stomach acid actually have too little. Inflamed tissue is
sensitive and even a little acid will irritate the gut lining.
Properly digesting and
assimilating the food we eat ensures getting our money’s worth both
nutritionally and economically. Gas and bloating after a meal are symptoms of
intestinal malfunction; enzymes and probiotic bacteria ensure peak digestion by
breaking down and extracting all the available nutrients from our food. Our
bodies, therefore, do not have to manufacture and use up valuable metabolic
enzymes for the digestion process. The use of supplemental enzymes takes the
burden off the internal organs, resulting in more energy and vitality.
By greatly reducing our intake of
cooked starches, refined and processed vegetable oils and sugars, we can
accelerate the body’s ability to heal and thrive. One highlight of our diets
should be green foods high in nutritional antioxidants including potent blends
of organic grass juices, vegetables from both the land and sea, combined with
the best of Chinese, Ayurvedic and Western herbal medicine.
Organic, low-glycemic, complex
carbohydrates, together with adequate high-quality vegetable and animal fats and
proteins, contain food-form vitamins & minerals that our bodies recognize. By
eating a high percentage of pre-digested live foods such as fruits, raw
vegetables, sprouted grains, soaked seeds and nuts, fermented foods - and
enzymes taken along with our meals - we provide the body with readily available
fuel to allow healing and rejuvenation to take place.
Some examples of low-glycemic
carbohydrates are cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, brussel sprouts, string beans,
tomatoes, eggplant, avocado, kale, okra, raspberries, cranberries, olives,
coconuts, etc. Conversely, excessive sugar consumption (rice, bread, potatos,
pasta, cooked grains, etc.) promotes the acceleration of the aging process yet
every cell in the body runs on sugar. Choose your sugar wisely – eat foods such
as romaine lettuce, cucumbers, zuccini, blueberries, strawberries, apples,
pears, etc. Try to combine fats with carbohydrates in order to have a more
gradual release of sugar into the blood stream (i.e. apples blended with hemp
butter and avocado).
Vibrancy and longevity are the
rewards for a diligent and conscientious effort toward eating a high quality
whole-foods diet.
We have fine food supplements
that are not usually found in most health food stores. Please study our
catalogue carefully and if you need clarification on any points raised, do not
hesitate in calling or writing with your questions or comments.
Yours in Health and Happiness,
Jerry Zeifman
