Sunjing and Limu Plus  ~~ the Dynamic Duo~~!

Sunjing

I had dropped my children off at school and was headed home. While at a stop sign I was rear-ended by a truck and my car was pushed into the intersection about 2-3 feet. At first when I got out of the car I thought I was okay as I went to inspect the damage of the car. Then I began to feel a lot of pain and stiffness in my neck, back, shoulders and right wrist.

I was taken to the hospital by ambulance. I was in pain all over my body and my right wrist was swollen, painful, bruised, and I had difficulty moving it like normal. They told me that they would need to put a cast on it but the swelling needed to go down, and to return in 48 hours and not to expect a dramatic difference.

They also informed me that I would be in a lot of pain and would barely be able to walk especially by the third day after the accident. I refused all medications and once they put a splint on my wrist I went home to use my Sunjing™ and Limu Plus®. Within the first 24 hours I drank a bottle of Limu Plus®. and continuously rolled on Sunjing™ on all my sore muscles and wrist. The next morning I was a little sore, but nothing too terrible, about the way you would feel after a light workout.

That Saturday morning, 48 hours after the accident I woke up feeling minimal to no soreness, there was very little pain in my wrist, the bruising and the swelling on my wrist was completely gone. When I went for them to look at my wrist and put a cast on it; they asked me what happened to it, what did I do?  I said nothing other than use this product I sell called Sunjing™. I took it out of my purse and showed it to them and they could not believe that little bottle had done that. They examined my wrist again and told me it looked as if I did not need a cast, that there were a lot of changes in my wrist within those 48 hours. I was told that those types changes are usually consistent with children with the same injuries, but adults usually take longer. I was told to keep using the Sunjing™ and the
splint.

Update: April’s Testimonial on the Health Show Conference Call included some more great news… April told us that her doctor told all her friends (MD’s). Then as chance would have it April saw her doctor at a public event where she and other doctors were working in a first aid tent when April’s doctor exclaimed “This is the person I was telling you about!” Bottom line the doctors bought a dozen bottles on-the-spot. Aprils told us that she’d just received an order of Sunjing™ and had it in her car. Her doctor has since received more information (taken from the Health Show) and is studying the product.

Researchers in the US have pointed to growing consumption of ‘nutrition’ bars and functional beverages as a risk to health they say these new foods threaten to leave a generation with permanent damage to oral health and raise the numbers of obese.

With quick meals in the form of cereal bars and carbonated drinks proving popular throughout the Western world, especially for the fast-paced lifestyle of teenagers and young adults, a study in this month’s General Dentistry journal warns that these may have long-term effects.

”Premature loss of tooth enamel and weakening of overall tooth structure are two devastating oral affects of teens’ poor diet that can not be reversed later in life,” explained author Jane Soxman.

Soxman warned that despite the importance of adolescence for bone growth, fizzy drinks and sugary, high-carbohydrate foods are rapidly displacing healthier options such as milk, fruits and vegetables. Many cereal bars, marketed as healthy, often contain large amounts of sugar.

”The easy access of sugary beverages and foods from home to school and everywhere in between has compromised the health of teens’ teeth, and helped fuel the national obesity epidemic,” added Julie Barna, spokesperson for the Academy of General Dentistry.

Dr Soxman’s research shows that drinking carbonated beverages seems to be one of the most significant causes of increased cavities and obesity for today’s teenagers. And as younger children become addicted to the caffeine and sugar contained in many fizzy drinks, the problems will only increase. Being overweight puts adolescents at significant health risks including increased incidence of hypertension and elevated cholesterol leading to heart disease, type II diabetes and osteoporosis.

The phosphoric, citric, tartaric and/or carbonic acid in fizzy drinks has also now been linked to breaking down the tooth enamel around dental sealants and restorations further compromising dental health.

And the phosphoric acid in most regular and diet cola drinks limits calcium absorption, with a direct influence on bone density, report the researchers. They say that by the age of 16, girls have accumulated 90 to 97 per cent of their bone mass making adequate calcium intake vital, yet statistics in the US and Europe show that many girls are not receiving enough calcium through their diets. Some research has linked soft drink consumption to bone fractures in teenage girls.

”These girls are at an extreme risk for developing osteoporosis, already exhibiting symptoms of this disease in their teen years,” said Dr Soxman. ”Early education on the importance of calcium consumption is key to reversing this trend.”

As all of you who are reading this forum know we have an amazing product called Coral Calcium+ which offers some amazing benefits. Benefits like: replenishing minerals, enhances nutrient bioavailability, strengthens bones and teeth, provides electrolyte balance and provides proper pH balance and so much more.

I would like to take a moment and offer you a very basic explanation as to why pH balance is so important:

Your body operates ideally within a narrow pH range of 7.36 – 7.44. It is naturally more alkaline than acidic; eventhough, some of the systems (like the digestive system) are acid. If the pH levels get too acid, a condition called acidosis can occur. Acidosis occurs when your blood pH level falls below 7.30. How does this impact you? In many way! One of those is fatigue. It has been stated that to be healthy the body cannot be acid. It must maintain the proper pH levels.

SO WHAT IS pH?
In general, our body must maintain a near perfect pH balance. It is critical to the maintenance of good health.The symbol ‘pH’ is used to represent the acidity or alkalinity level. pH stands for ‘potential for hydrogen’. Some have called it ‘potential for health’. Anything from 0-6.9 is acid and from 7-14 is alkaline. Essentially every function of the body is dependent on our bodies maintaining a precisely balanced pH in the blood, and other critical bodily systems. One of the key systems, for example, is the enzyme system. The enzyme system, as well as the electrical functions of our body, is dependent on electrolytes. Electrolyte levels are dependent on pH. This would indicate (as reported by A.C. Guyton and J. E. Hall in their Textbook of Medical Physiology, 9th edition) that without proper pH levels, it should be difficult for the cells to incorporate the necessary nutrients and energy for good health. This could lead to the cell weakening, which could lead to weakened tissue and ; then, to the organs themselves malfunctioning. This becomes even more serious as the body’s systems are affected, often times, leaving the body open to ‘invaders’ of all types. It has been stated that poor health most often begins after out pH balance is impacted due to a deficiency of minerals, especially electrolyte minerals like sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, lithium, and phosphorus.

We must remember that the changes in pH do not have to be major: most elements of the body have a very definite pH range and slight changes impact chemical reactions both within and outside the cell. This is why maintenance of pH levels are critical to overall body balance. To show the extreme opposites of the ph spectrum, a body that is too acid may slip into a coma and a body that is too alkaline might slip into convulsions — neither is good (Textbook of Medical Physiology, 7th edition). It is the proper balance that produces good health. However, if the PH shifts within a cell or organ, chaos results.

The chief culprits in mineral depletion within our body are the acid-forming foods we eat and what we drink( almost all of the fluids we drink on a daily basis are acidic. Coffee, tea, milk, soft drinks, fruit juices and even water. For example. a carbonated beverage has a pH of 2, orange juice is ph of 3, and average tap water is 4.5. So drink bottled water you may be saying–well it is typically a pH of only 6) and the other major cause of acidity is stress. In addition, antibiotics which can destroy the friendly bacteria create a problem because the bacteria that ‘grow back’ are often acid forming and can potentially create a problem that could drain the body of health enhancing electrolyte minerals. Some other causes of electrolyte loss might be: strenuous exercise, sickness, infection, or even fasting.

It is important that we maintain a perfect pH balance. The pH of the body systems have very exact ranges (Richard Anderson, Cleanse and Purify Thyself). He even points out that the food we eat must be at an optimum pH level before the body can absorb it. ome examples of pH ranges: saliva (6.0-7.0); stomach (1.0-3.5); pancreas (8.0-8.3); intestines (7.5-8.0) and blood (7.35-7.45).

If we can maintain the proper pH balance, we should maintain good health.

The Coral Calcium product provides a range of minerals including proper amounts of calcium and magnesium that assist the body in maintaining this critical pH balance.

VitaChe is a very potent formula that contains what many refer to as optimum doses of the appropriate nutrients. VitaChe is target nutrition for blood sugar and circulatory concerns. It contains over 39 nutrients which offer beneficial support as antioxidants, cell membrane stabilizers, circulatory enhancers and much more.

One of the key facets of a product that enhances circulatory function is its ability to address the presence of heavy metals that may collect in the bloodstream. The body addresses these unpleasant substances with natural chelating agents like flavanoids: vitamins A, C and the Bs; beta-carotene; L-Methionine; L-Cysteine; chromium, copper; Zinc; and Co Q Enzyme 10 (to name a few). These are a vital part of the VitaChe formulation.

Many of these powerful nutrients pull double duty. I’d like to point out just a few of the nutrients that make VitaChe so powerful:

Ginger is an herb which research indicates is effective as a strong antioxidant and a very powerful contributor to maintaining cholesterol within normal ranges. It also has a major impact on the output of bile, which is critical to normal cholesterol balance.

Fenugreek is a fiber from seed powder. It has demonstrated the ability to maintain blood sugar within normal ranges and cholesterol within normal ranges.

Taurine is an amino acid that assists with regular heart beat, maintenance of cell membrane stability and addresses brain activity. Studies have demonstrated its ability to improve heart function and maintain blood pressure within normal ranges.

Folic Acid helps to reduce dangerous homocysteine levels. 20% – 40% of people with heart concerns have elevated homocysteine levels.

Bioflavanoids enhance the absorption of C. They work with the C to protect and preserve the structure of capillaries and they promote circulation. They also help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.

Bromelain assists with digestion and assimilation.

Biotin is a member of the B vitamin family. It increases the effectiveness of Co Q 10. It is important to the maintenance of blood sugar levels and is great for hair and nails.

Butcher’s Broom has major significance in the support of venous concerns. It is also effective in the maintenance of the lymphatic system. The active ingredients are called ruscogenins–they have demonstrated pharmacological actions such as strengthening veins and capillaries.

Chromium is very beneficial to maintaining both blood sugar and blood lipid levels within normal ranges.

Hawthorn Berry contains many active flavanoid compounds that are very effective for cardiovascular concerns like improvement of blood supply to the heart and metabolic processes in the heart like those that relate to contraction of the heart muscle.

Magnesium is so very important to the heart. It is important to cardiovascular support and proper functioning of the heart. It functions to improve energy production within the heart; it has dilating properties which may improve delivery of oxygen to the heart and it impacts heart rate. It also helps maintain cholesterol levels within normal ranges. It also impacts insulin secretion and action.

Niacin offers benefit for maintaining cholesterol and triglycerides within normal levels and circulatory characteristics. We use the inositol hexaniacinate form which is more specific to circulatory issues than other forms of niacin and does not have the other side effects like flushing. This form of niacin is also considered more effective with periphery circulatory issues (concerns in extremities).

I could go on and on with the other stars like L-Carnitine, selenium, L-Arginine, choline, and others. However, I believe you get the idea as to why we at Vitacorp International consider this formula to be such an amazing product.
