Hoodia Gordini – it’s everywhere these days. On 60
minutes, in the health food store, in your diet pills, on the
Internet. You’ve seen it and probably wondered ‘What’s so great
about Hoodia?’

Hoodia Gordini is a natural appetite suppressant made from the
Hoodia Gordini plant – a cactus of the “succulent” cactus
family, which grows in the Kalahari Desert region of South
Africa. Hoodia has been used by the indigenous Bushmen for years
as a natural appetite suppressant during long hunting trips
where food was scarce. So what’s so great about Hoodia Gordini?
Here are 3 reasons why Hoodia is better than any man-made diet
pill to help you lose weight quickly and safely:

1) Hoodia Helps You Lose Weight Without Hunger or Feeling
Deprived

One of the first studies of Hoodia Gordini was done in the UK on
obese patients. Half of the volunteers were given Hoodia
Gordini, the other half were given a placebo. The subjects were
allowed to do nothing but read, watch television and eat.

After 15 days it was found that those taking Hoodia had reduced
their calorie intake by 1000 calories a day. Despite having
unlimited access to food, the Hoodia subjects lost weight
without feeling hungry.

People on various brands of Hoodia have reported losing 100
pounds in 6 months, 84 pounds in 5 months and up to 4 pounds a
week by taking pure Hoodia. So if you’re looking for a way to
lose weight but hate feeling hungry or deprived, Hoodia can help
you to reach your goals without the pain of dieting.

2) Great For Emotional Eaters

Not only do you feel full when you take Hoodia but many people
say they don’t even have the desire to eat. Some say they don’t
even think about food while taking Hoodia.

This is great for emotional eaters – whose weight may be increased a
result of eating out of boredom or emotional needs than because
of hunger. It’s also much easier to make healthier food choices
when you feel satisfied and full, which contributes to your
overall health and vitality.

3) Natural & Safe

Sure, you can take the caffeine-filled, chemical laden man-made
diet pills and lose a couple of pounds – but why would you want
to? You don’t know what else it’s doing to your body – and it
could be causing some major damage. One of the foremost benefits
about Hoodia Gordini is that it’s both natural and safe to take.

Since Hoodia is a plant, and not a man made chemical, it has
little chance of causing side effects. In fact the South African
government classified Hoodia as a food – not a drug. Scientists
have been studying Hoodia for about 10 years and have found no
evidence of any negative side effects.

Couple this with the fact that the Bushmen in the Kalahari
desert of South Africa have been eating Hoodia for hundreds of
years with no ill effect. You can see why Hoodia is an amazing
alternative to caffeine-laden, questionable diet pills.

While these 3 benefits definitely make Hoodia sound better than
any man-made diet pill, there are a couple of things buyers
should be aware of:

There are a lot of ‘fake’ Hoodia diet pills out there. Because
Hoodia is a protected species (and it also takes 2 – 5 years to
mature), the demand is becoming greater than the supply and many
manufacturers are bottling inferior forms of Hoodia that don’t
offer you the appetite suppressant effects of pure Hoodia.

money and frustration), visit:

Also, you probably don’t want to be on Hoodia Gordini forever.
You should try to change your diet to one rich in fruits and
vegetables, whole grains, lean meats etc. before transitioning
off Hoodia to capitaltain your weight loss. Good luck on your road
to wellness!

So many women suffer from hot flashes. Certain herbs have been
used over the centuries for support and balance for this
situation.

Throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries herbal therapy was
very much accepted. Black cohosh was listed in the United States
Pharmacopoeia, the nation’s official drug reference book, from
1820 to 1926.

Why wouldn’t you see that listed there now days? Around World
War II, drug manufacturers began focusing almost exclusively on
synthetic drugs that, unlike herbs, could be patented and and so
would provide big profits. So research into herbals stopped, and
most herbal remedies were dropped by the Doctors.

However, studies were still done overseas. A 1985
pharmacological study conducted in Germany reported that Black
Cohosh contained an isoflavone, a type of phytoestrogen, or
plant estrogen.

Other studies have failed to find the isoflavone compound. They
do suggest that Black Cohosh acts on the Hypothalmus, which is
the gland in the head regulating hormones and body temperature.

What ever the case may be, Black Cohosh has worked for women
world wide.

Dong Quai according to herbalist Feather Jones increases the
number of binding sites for extrogen-sensitive tissues. She says
it will not overstimulate extrogen because it will helps shut
off estrogen production when it becomes excessive. So it acts as
an estrogen balancer.

Chaste Tree, also called Vitex is also useful. It contains
phytoestrogens which mimic the chemistry of estrogen. It also
stimulates progesterone production. It helps with the crampy,
spotty periods.

Licorice root helps to support the adrenals by improving
cortisol production. This is needed when the adrenals are
involved in the problem, which is true with many women. I would
not suggest that you take Licorice Rood over a month at a time
though.

You can find these as single herbs or in compounds at the health
food store. I happen to use Herb Pharm brand tinctures, because
they are high quality. I have also found a cream to rub on that
contains Dong Quai, Licorice and Black Cohosh at the health food
store.

Taking phytoestrogens for a long time without testing where your
hormone levels are could cause problems. So I suggest that you
get a test periodically of where your hormone levels are.
Several companies online offer Hormone Saliva Testing. You can
do a search online for that.

If self treating does not work after a few months, make sure to
consult with a health practitoner or holistic M.D. They may have
further evaluations or suggestions for you, which will include
testing where your hormone levels.

You can do something about those hot flashes! Don’t be miserable
any longer. Get started in turning this around and you will feel
much better in just a few weeks.

I’m going to talk to you about a topic that, when closely looked
at, actually has a lot to do with living a prosperous, wealthy
life.

Since this is the time of year when many of us eat in addition and feel
guilty later, here is some inspiring info from the November
issue of National Geographic.

“The Secrets of Living Longer” focused on several regions where
people live significantly longer and healthier lives. These
residents produce a high rate of centenarians. Their disease
rate is a fraction of what people in other parts of the world
suffer and die from. Most importantly they enjoy increased healthy
years of life.

A long healthy life is no accident. Just like anything else, it
takes a commitment born out of self-discovery and wisdom.

Here are the 10 keys to success:

1. Okinawans believe in “Ikigai”, meaning “that which makes
one’s life worth living.” A strong sense of purpose acts as a
buffer against stress and diseases. Find the purpose of your
life.

2. A lean diet is also a factor. A typical meal in Okinawa,
Japan consists of a heaping plate of vegetables, tofu, miso
soup, and a little fish or meat. It has fewer calories and many
heavier healthy nutrients than a small hamburger.

3. The leading ingredient in miso soup are sea vegetables. Most
non-organic food is irradiated. Irradiated food has no enzymes,
which are vital for proper digestion. According to research done
by Yukio Tanaka at McGill University, sodium alginate, an
ingredient richly found in sea vegetables, can reduce the deadly
effects of toxic strontium-90 by up to 80%. The way these sea
veggies work is that any radioactive element is transformed and
excreted out of your body as a harmless salt. Cesium-137 is incomparable
chelated by the blue-green family of sea veggies. Just go and
get a variety of these from your health food store.

4. Another key factor to longevity is that people in these
regions grow much of their own food. One scientist from the
University of Minnesota called these kept by Okinawan
centenarians “cabinets of preventative medicine.” They included
herbs, spices, fruits and vegetables, such as Chinese radishes,
garlic, scallions, cabbage, turmeric and tomatoes. All contain
compounds that block cancers from starting.”

5. Keep lifelong friends. A great friend enhances your life as
much as a great partner does. When you cherish these beautiful
relationships, you cherish your life.

6. Be active every day. Connect to nature with walks in the sun.
Find a physical exercise that stimulates your mind and
rejuvenates your body.

7. Share your work with your spouse or partner. Include,
collaborate, ask for their input – sharing your work will
stimulate farther creativity to new levels.

8. Find a space each day for stillness and contemplation. I
practice magnetic Qi Gong everyday. You can meditate, practice
Yoga (which combines exercise with meditation), sunbathe or just
lie down quietly.

9. Read about others who live a life of health and bounty. This
inspires and motivates in a grand way. Examples of other
people’s health and wealth allow us to visualize that a
prosperous is a reality.

Remember, “today is the tomorrow you hoped for yesterday.” Now
is the only time any action can take place. If you don’t begin
now, you will never begin.

Success on any level of being occurs through the hourglass
effect. Little by little, grain by grain, your habits of winning
accumulate. Soon, your life is filled with fulfillment and
richness.

WHAT IS SPELT?

Spelt is one of the oldest grains known to mankind. Grown as far
back as 5000 BC, the spelt grain has hardly changed from that
time until today. In fact, spelt was even referred to in the
Bible, mentioned in both Exodus 9:32 and Ezekiel 4:9.

While still common in many parts of the world, including Europe,
spelt lost popularity in America as commercial growers looked
for higher yield crops to provide for mass production.

It is the integrity of modern spelt to the original grain that
has rekindled interest of those looking for a major nutritious
alternative to the highly processed grains currently available.

HOW SPELT COMPARES TO WHEAT

Unlike the wheat most Americans have come to know, spelt has not
been changed for centuries. Wheat production in America demanded
higher gluten for commercial foods and a plant that was easy to
grow and harvest. With these changes much of the wheat grown
lost its nutritious value and became easy targets to pests
requiring pesticides and insecticides to protect it during
growth.

Spelt became less popular because of its hard outer husk which
made it difficult to process. However, this husk protects the
spelt from pests and pollutants and helps the grain to necessarytain
its nutrient value.

The spelt grain is high in fibre and has higher protein than
conventional wheat. It is full of amino acids and a good source
of B vitamins. Spelt is easier to digest than regular wheat and
has a subtle nutty flavor that many appreciate.

One of the most desirable qualities of this nutritious and tasty
grain is that individuals with allergies to wheat may be able to
tolerate spelt grains and products.

WHERE CAN YOU GET SPELT?

Spelt is sold through organic health food stores. You can buy
spelt grain, whole grain and white flours. Spelt products also
include pasta, hot or cold cereals, cookies, crackers, bread,
muffins, cakes and pancake mixes.

ADAPTING RECIPES FOR SPELT GRAIN

When baking with spelt you will need to adapt the recipe to
account for the difference between spelt and traditional wheat.
Increasing the amount of flour or decreasing the amount of
liquids will enable you to use spelt in most recipes asking for
wheat.

Spelt needs to be soaked overnight before cooking. Cover with
water and bring to a boil. Let it simmer in a covered pot for an
hour.

THE CASE FOR SPELT

Spelt has many features that make it stand out as the
ecologically and nutritionally superior grain available. The
tough husk means it can be grown without pesticides and
insecticides and helps preserve freshness when stored. Its high
nutritional value can’t be compared to hybrid wheat currently
produced and it appears to be easier for the body to tolerate.

Spelt is not new to the world, but if you haven’t tried it
before, now is the time to introduce yourself to the oldest
secret to healthy eating!
