Allergies and Food Addictions – NO MORE by Dr. Eleonore Blaurock-Busch PhD

>> Friday, April 17, 2015


A Self-Help Book for Allergy Sufferers, and all those who want to feel better, physically and psychologically.



This book explains food allergies and how you can alleviate or get rid of your problems. About 1-5% of the total population has food allergies; more than 120 foods are recognized to cause them. This book lists the foods that most commonly cause reactions on a worldwide basis, namely: milk, egg, peanut, tree nuts followed by cereals (mainly wheat), soybeans, fish, and shellfish. It also explains why some foods temporarily cause problems, and others may turn out to be problematic for you throughout life. The book tells you how to identify temporary food sensitivities and genetically-based food allergies.

More often, people with pollen allergy experience allergic symptoms when they eat certain fruits, vegetables or nuts. The author explains why cross-reactions occur and how you can alleviate hay fever symptoms through sensible eating and living. Food addictions are part of the food allergy complex, and you will learn how to manage it all. You will be rewarded by feeling better physically and emotionally.

The book describes how you can reduce food reactions by improving digestive functions. It also explains why some nutritional supplementation can help to reduce allergy suffering. Most of all, the book teaches how to plan a sensible and tasty diet through proper food rotation. Food groups are listed with a diet plan and tasty menus. You will learn why a temporary avoidance of specific foods changes your allergy symptoms into a manageable and temporary problem. Symptoms will disappear, one after the other. With a little discipline in preparing daily menus, you will eventually be able to eat most, if not all foods - without suffering from allergies symptoms. Try it.

Exit Strategy: Depriving Death of Its Strangeness by David B. Oliver

>> Wednesday, April 8, 2015


Instead of crawling into a cave, or fighting to futility, David Oliver chose to use his “Stage IV” cancer diagnosis as an opportunity to help others. Although given a death sentence, he has written this compelling and inspirational story that has reached around the world. It will make you laugh, cry, and want to rise up and give him a standing ovation.



For David Oliver, it was hearing “Stage IV” and “not curable,” that made his knees go weak. Receiving the bad news that he had terminal cancer was devastating. His choices, like most persons given a death sentence, were to retreat, fight, or accept it. He chose the latter, to accept and seize the moment to share his story so that it might help persons with cancer, and those who care for them. He takes the reader on a roller-coaster journey of anxiety and fear, from needle and open biopsies to chemotherapy infusion rooms, blood transfusions, PET scans, medication chaos and inside his “chemo brain.” He shares how his body is racked with nasty chemicals that kill both bad and good cells, leaving a residue of neuropathy at his extremities and a body vulnerable to blood clots, cramps, bruising, and more.



And in the midst of all the pain and the ordeal of appointments, procedures, and prescriptions, he finds time to tell a love story. His relationship with his wife, Debbie, is one that intensifies with every unexpected episode. The two of them experience an intimacy that transcends dying to focus instead on living. They achieve a level of togetherness that few others attain. Time takes on new meaning, and making every moment count is never ending. Support from others is also celebrated, documented, and tells a story of its own.



An Associated Press article reached over 800 media outlets about David and resulted in invitations requesting him to explain his decision to engage rather than disengage, approach rather than withdraw, teach rather than quit, and to keep on living in the midst of dying. He does this with a keen sense of humor and teasing which is his style, and which, in the process, makes others comfortable.



The desire to tell about his journey, to teach everyone from medical students to physicians, to persons with cancer and their caregivers, and to family members and others who struggle with this cunning, baffling disease, becomes his goal, his mission. It gives him meaning and purpose rather than pain and despair. And by incorporating his memoirs, the reader can see how his life experiences provide a foundation, an explanation for his choices and decision-making. And by going public in producing with his wife many five-minute YouTube videos, he finds himself on a national and international stage. A CBS This Morning with Charlie Rose appearance results in local, regional, and even international interviews and coverage. He quickly learns that this cancer thing is bigger than his story.



Attention to coping skills is particularly helpful to others facing this illness, and David’s envisioning of how a world-class cancer center should and could operate is imaginative, innovative, and inspiring. Sharing how he wishes to “die well,” is powerful, detailed, and instructive. It is the source of the title, “Exit Strategy,” for it is his plan. This is followed by what life will be for others when he is gone and lessons learned from this journey with cancer.



The subtitle “Depriving Death of its Strangeness,” is a major goal, it is a hoped for takeaway by the reader. David is very clear in reminding us all that none of us gets out of this alive. At one time or another, all living things die and humans over the years have demonstrated 100% mortality. Yet denying its reality, hiding the wrinkles, making dead people look alive in caskets, and millions and millions of dollars spent on making us look and feel young, accomplishes very little and in the end, leads us to fear death, hide it, and certainly not talk about it. David hopes that his dying is a role model for his children and grandchildren, that they see it as a natural, expected part of living. Thus it is OK to think, talk about, and plan for it. And most importantly while embracing death, to celebrate life.









About David B. Oliver


David B. Oliver has spent much of his life studying and teaching about aging and end-of-life care. When diagnosed in 2011 with Stage Four nasopharyngeal cancer, he realized that this was his ultimate teaching opportunity—the chance for an educator to experience and chronicle terminal cancer from the patient's perspective. In this groundbreaking and inspiring book, Oliver makes the most of that opportunity, sharing what 'dying well' can teach us about life, love, and hope.

Sexy Healthy Grandmother, Healthy You Healthy Me by London Renee

>> Thursday, March 5, 2015


"Start now, while you are young" You are going to age, so why not age gracefully? Another quote Venus likes to share is,“Our health always seems much more valuable after we lose it”—unknown source. Don’t let this happen to you. Protect your health and care about your body, that great gift from the Creator. We are getting older and living longer, so why not be healthy, sexy and beautiful doing it.



Venus is a mother of three and grandmother of 14. She has studied natural health for the last 25 years and enjoys eating for good health. Eating for a healthy brain, heart, lungs, kidneys and liver, the body, mind and the soul, is thinking about the whole of the body. For 13 years Venus has been licensed as a skin specialist and for over 20 years as a natural health life coach. Her three passions in life are Spirituality, Family and Natural Health.

She believes that whenever you are sick or feeling weak, your immune system is weakening. She says our bodies are starving from lack of nutrients and physical challenges, and the foods we eat are mostly devoid of nutritional value. Our bodies need help. We need more of the green foods, foods with life in them, supplements to help keep the immune system healthy and strong. We need to exercise so that we stay in shape for this long life we are living. As we age our systems go through changes. The process starts the moment we are born and worsens as we get older.









About London Renee

Herbal Rituals by Judith Berger

>> Wednesday, March 4, 2015


Herbal Rituals weaves elements from disparate myths, religious rituals, Native American traditions, and memories from the author's childhood to create a living, breathing tapestry, situating the reader vividly into each month of nature's yearly cycle. It includes recipes for meals, medicinal infusions, herbal honey, brandies, lotions, soothing baths, and rituals in the spirit of each season.



Herbal Rituals is about connecting with Nature and the plant world in order to keep us near to the ground of our own souls. The book records, month by month, a yearlong journey in to the earth's natural cycle. Month by month readers are given a poetic description of a facet of the earth's temperament, offering us an opportunity to immerse ourselves in Nature's unique expression of birth, growth, fruition, decay, death and regeneration, the primary cycle that weaves a thread of continuance through our lives. Each monthly chapter discusses one or two herbs in detail - what it's like, how it grows, what it does - as well as presenting recipes for teas, lotions and foods, along with rituals appropriate to the season that can bring your life into harmony with the moods of nature. Even in an urban environment, the constant presence of the elemental natural world and the use of herbs can be a touchstone to bring both body and soul back to a natural cadence. For thousands of years, humans have used herbs and trees for just this kind of medicine, in addition to calling on the plants as a source of nutrition, remedy, heating, shelter and magic. These are the old ways.









About Judith Berger


Judith Berger has been studying and practicing herbal medicine since 1986. She integrates decades of experience as an herbalist with her medical background as a physician assistant to serve clients and patients interested in integrative care. She also teaches yoga, and, when not writing, spends much of her free time in the mountains and fields of New York State, receiving and learning more about the gifts of the plant world. She believes that natural medicine is our birthright and that imbibing herbs in many forms provides vitality and pleasure, the root of all wellbeing.

6 Newly Discovered and Never Before Published Secrets to Eternal Youth and Immortality by Eternal Youth Empire

>> Wednesday, November 26, 2014


The title says it all and delivers exactly as promised. Those who wish a FREE jump start into the master class http://surfinguniverse.com/forums/topic/is-it-possible-to-be-ageless/



For TV appearances on this book visit the YouTube channel of TrueGreyt. Thank you!



Reviewed by the ONLY institute for anti-aging in America, The Buck Institute, who could not find any erroneous information with the k



As frequently seen on TV

http://www.YouTube.com/TrueGreyt



This is the superGenius edition of this Guide, brought to you by

health and wellness guru Veronica Grey

recipient of 2014 Worldwide Leaders in Healthcare Honor and Award

for Life Extension & Age Reversal from International Association of Health Care Professionals.



WHAT IF YOU COULD REVERSE THE AGING PROCESS and recapture your youth and hold it as long as you like? That is what this Guidebook teaches. No one would want to live forever old and feeble. But what if you could live as long as you like, look exactly the way you intend, and feel as strong and healthy as possible, creating wealth that lasts as long as you live? Here is how, because AGING is a CHOICE.



Each time you buy into aging you are actually CHOOSING it.



Aging is bull. Did you know that our body produces BRAND NEW CELLS every 18 months? You literally have a brand new you every 18 months.

If you look or feel older that is because you PROGRAM yourself to.



You have heard we only use a certain amount of our actual brain. Here is how to access the parts relating to age-reversal.



All this information is written in a very simple "non-scientific" manner. A teenager can understand it!

"If you can live for the next 10 years, you can live forever!"After reading this Guide, you will be able to attain and maintain the age you intend to look and feel, as long as you like. Guaranteed. You will actually be able to reverse your aging process.



Why go with this Guide? There are only 3 institutes for anti-aging in the world and only one in America. As such, in 2008, we presented The Buck Institute of Anti-Aging in Marin County, CA, with our Guideposts because we wanted to share our findings with them for two reasons. First to be of service in case our ideas could be helpful to their case studies and second to see if our Guideposts were possibly incorrect because we would not want to widely circulate erroneous advice. Because we are not scientists working in conjunction with the Buck Institute, they cannot directly endorse us but the result was they also did not find anything wrong with our Guideposts. Had they found errors in our hypotheses they would have let us know. So we are happy to now be of service and share our irrefutable solutions for age-reversal with you.



Legal disclaimer: This book is 100% tax deductible, thereby making it a FREE gift from us to you! Simply reference our Federal EIN 61-1555550 to claim your exemption equal to the amount you "paid." When you make a "payment" it is actually a donation since we are a charity. Your donation is voluntary and without condition. Legally we can't "owe" you anything in exchange for making this donation. However, we GIFT this book to you as part of our mission to serve. THANKS!



HOWEVER:

Please make a note that Eternal Youth Empire has been replaced by "Israel-Light: High Intensity Discharge (for those who wish to sleep in peace)" a charity organization with the same tax exempt ID. The reason that E.Y.E. has been renamed is because the founders had a one time change of heart and believe that might be better to age gracefully and sleep peacefully rather than to go against mother nature, the natural law, and God (Israel), which is what trying to remain eternally youthful in any way is. The change of heart came about from a sort of "Frankenstein" experience, in discovering that THESE SECRETS DO WORK! The question is, what are the consequences? So buyer beware, these secrets WILL REVERSE YOUR AGE. Just like the "Curious Case of Benjamin Button" starring Brad Pitt and directed by David Fincher. As such, tread carefully, the same way that we tread carefully with new concepts such as gene splicing, and nanotechnology, and stem cell research. Thank you for not throwing the baby out with the bathwater because the excellent content is still worth obtaining and knowing all this, we choose to still embody this lifestyle every day. Namaste.









About Eternal Youth Empire


"We here at Israel-Light: High Intensity Discharge for those who wish to Sleep in Peace are a collaboration of scientists / artists / farmers / environmentalists / philosophers / healers / entrepreneurs / visionaries / vegetarian animal lovers / attorneys / surfer mavericks who bring you the most revolutionary and enlightening methods to assist you pro actively on your path of eternal youth, immortality, and longevity. We are folks just like you who have more life experiences than degrees to which we attribute our learning. But sure, we have degrees and even awards too, if that sort of thing impresses you. What impresses us is a nice day surfing. Surfing and going home to your spouse? Even better."

Ebola 2014 by Leah Roberts

>> Sunday, November 9, 2014


The 2013-2014 Ebola outbreak has created a need for a complete resource that can be understood by both medical personnel and those outside of the medical field. This is a comprehensive and current summary of information available about Ebola at this time.



The Ebola outbreak that began in December 2013 has garnered the concern of the global community. There have been many questions about this disease as the numbers of cases and death tolls continue to rise. Many rumors have surfaced and there are those profiting on the sale of protective equipment by amplifying those aspects about the disease and its sequences of events that cause fear. There has long been a need for a short but thorough reference for Ebola and this was the motive behind this publication. Information contained in this reference is cited to additional resources that provide more in-depth knowledge for those interested. The topics covered are current, comprehensive, fact-based and do not attempt to convey blame or sell products. Knowing about this virus, the disease it causes, and the improvisation used in Africa should provide a strong basis for managing and containing the outbreak in Africa as well as other countries where travel introduces the disease. Knowledge is power and this short resource provides that to its readers with a complete list of all of the references and their links where appropriate.
