Water, Water Everywhere...
I've always known that drinking water is important for my health, but lately I've been noticing even more how badly I feel physically when I DON'T drink enough water. As a runner I try to make an even more concerted effort to continually hydrate myself, but I get distracted by handling my herd of kids and day to day activities, so in turn I wind up putting my health last and forget to drink. What I'm realizing is that by neglecting to rehydrate is that I'm more irritable, have more headaches, and less energy.... So I'm actually less productive, and feel awful to boot. I'm also guilty of treating dehydration symptoms with meds like ibuprofen and caffeine rather than drinking more water, which in turn actually dehydrates me even more! Vicious cycle. So today, I'm committing to drinking more than enough water, and at the end of the day I will report how I feel and what I've noticed physically and mentally by guzzling enough. Do you know of any good ways to keep up with how much water you drink during the day? What do you notice physically when you fail to drink???

Health Messes
As most of you know, I have dealt with a Bipolar Type 2 diagnosis since 2008. Wow, that's 5 years! And it's been a hideous mess of ups and downs, one nervous breakdown, and constantly adjusting medicines that have side effects, and the roller coaster of feeling mentally foggy and alert. I also feel like an inadequate mom to my herd of four kids most of the time because I have zero energy (especially in a down cycle) and am irritable and can't focus. I used to feel so sharp mentally, like I could handle anything that came my way, and now there are days I feel like I'm holding on by a thread.
After being frustrated, I began to research my tail off.... And everywhere I look, I keep encountering the suggestion that a chronic yeast (candida) infection throughout the body can mimic Bipolar symptoms, or aggravate depression, among other mental illnesses, if they truly are present. Here is an article discussing the connection : https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.freeconferencecallhd.com%2Fplayback.html%3Fn%3D-17-65-67122213730126-17-65-67-17-65-6712774-17-65-67120-17-65-67%253B0NzE1NDAwOTc%253D0&session_token=GSCDzH2K19NhVWuS3TKAgnJuzJx8MTM2NzAxNTQ0OUAxMzY3MDAxMDQ5 Finding out that I might be able to be freed from the prison of pharmaceuticals that I now take daily, has been liberating. I have been investigating ways to eliminate the yeast from my body, and so far, have started the following things:
1) A cup of organic plain yogurt (for probiotic purposes)
2) A diet eliminating high sugar contents and anything that has been fermented (yes, even cheese) to rid my system of yeast and to quit feeding the already present yeast.
3)Adding Raw Manuka Honey to theplain yogurt as well as cinnamon, which has antibacterial and anti fungal properties. Raw Manuka honey is taken from hives on the Tea Olive trees in New Zealand. I will do an entire post on this later on... It's amazing stuff. https://www.magnesoothe.com/the-power-of-activated-manuka/
4) Working to alkalize my body. Bacteria and fungi hate alkalinity. Using It It Works Greens and Alkaline Water.
I will research and experiment until I find a natural path to ridding myself of these problems.

A Year to a New Me!
This weekend trip to St. Louis has been incredible for so many reasons... I got to meet and spend time with so many great people that are members of the It Works Family... I gained knowledge on how to help my business grow and help my team succeed... But I feel like the most important information I gained was on improving my own health and well being. I had the privilege of hearing Dr. Don VerHulst discuss natural options on preventing illness and maintaining a harmonious state in our "earth suits" that God has placed us in. I've always tried to stay in good physical shape and make healthy choices, but I'm learning that even with the best intentions that I've been taking the wrong approach in several cases in improving my health. What's amazing is that not only did Dr. Don teach me the "10 Keys to Health"... But that my company, It Works, has so many tools and supplements to help me reach that goal. I cannot wait to share all of the things he taught us and how I'm implementing them with all of you, and to discuss the chronic health issues I'm desperately seeking to eliminate. What health issues would you like to kick to the curb?!

Best. Running. Skirt. Ever.
My friend, Tabitha Hedrick, owner of TStar Running (http://TStarRunning.com) has invented (yes, invented AND patented) the world's most awesome running skirt. Ever. The unique design has hidden pockets in the waistband of the skirt that can hold your energy gels, phone, keys, small child, whatever and things NEVER FALL OUT. I have worn these skirts in an endless number of training runs, Half Marathons and my Marathon, last October, and they are nothing short of amazing. The compression shirts never move, and you can choose any spandex that can be bought. So I knew that when I had a specific need/idea in mind for my newest running skirt that she was my go-to gal. I decided that I wanted to be able to carry my .38 special with me on runs for safety purposes, and that I wanted it to be concealed, but easily accessible, as well as comfortable to run in. With a few extra measurements, she DID IT!!!! It arrived at my house today, and I tried it on (perfect custom fit, of course) and tried out the gun pocket. AMAZING. I cannot WAIT to take this skirt on a run!!! If you love running, or skirts, or running skirts, you HAVE to own one (or many) of her custom sewn awesome ones! P.S. This is not a paid endorsement. I just feel the need to share this awesomeness with the world!

Black Cumin and its Power!
Black cumin: The secret miracle heal-all remedy
Monday, January 28, 2013 by: Jonathan Benson, staff writer
What if we told you there was a seed so densely packed with healing compounds that cancer, bacteria, viruses, ulcers, diabetes, chronic inflammation, and many other common health conditions hardly stand a chance in its presence? Not to be confused with black sesame seed which looks strikingly similar, black cumin, also known as "black seed," is the seed in question, and it is all these things and more, hence its historical reputation as "a remedy for all diseases except death."
If you have never heard of black cumin (Nigella sativa), it is probably because the seed is rarely talked about in modern Western society. Even though its use as both an herb and a folk remedy dates back many centuries, black cumin has long been shelved in favor of pharmaceutical remedies that are far less effective and elicit harmful side effects. But if you are tired of trying to overcome your ailments with patented drugs, you may want to consider adding black cumin to your diet.
Since 1964, there have been at least 458 published, peer-reviewed studies involving black cumin, according to GreenMedInfo.com, and these studies confirm what Middle Eastern and North African cultures have known for thousands of years -- black cumin is essentially a miracle heal-all remedy. According to the Green Med Info reference page for black cumin, the seed has been scientifically confirmed as being:
• Analgesic (pain-killing)
• Antibacterial
• Anti-inflammatory
• Anti-ucler
• Anti-cholinergic
• Anti-fungal
• Anti-hypertensive
• Antioxidant
• Antispasmodic
• Antiviral
• Bronchodilator
• Gluconeogenesis inhibitor (anti-diabetic)
• Hepatoprotective (liver protecting)
• Hypotensive
• Insulin sensitizing
• Interferon inducer
• Renoprotective (kidney protecting)
• Tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitor
Specifically, black cumin has been shown to provide pain relief for patients being treated for acute tonsillo-pharyngitis; prevent disease that would otherwise be caused by exposure to chemical weapons; aid in the long-term treatment of patients addicted to opioid drugs; alleviate the symptoms of allergic rhinitis; fight Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection; treat type-2 diabetes; relieve asthma symptoms; lower blood pressure; prevent epileptic seizures; and eliminate fungi and candidiasis, among many other functions (http:// www.greenmedinfo.com/ substance/ nigella-sativa-aka-black-se ed).
Black cumin as powerful preventive, treatment for cancer
If all this is not enough, black cumin has long been regarded throughout the Middle East as one of the most powerful anti-carcinogenic herbs in existence. Studies have shown that regularly taking black cumin or black cumin oil can help prevent the growth and spread of colon cancer cells, but the seed is also useful in preventing and treating many other types of cancer as well (http:// www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ pubmed/12881014). In fact, researchers at the Cancer Immuno-Biology Laboratory in South Carolina found that black cumin helps stimulate the activity of neutrophil granulocytes, the most abundant type of white blood cell in the body, which are responsible for targeting cancer cells and eliminating them before they can develop into tumors.
"Black Cumin Oil (Black Seed) generally helps stimulate the production of bone marrow and cells of the immune system," wrote the authors in their study. "It increases the production of interferon, protects normal cells from the damaging effects of viral disease, destroys tumor cells and increases the number of antibody producing B cells" (http://www.alyusra.com/ blackseed/ Black%20Seed%20Research.htm).
Because it has a spicy, nutty flavor, black cumin can be sprinkled whole or ground up on food, and the oil can also be used on salads and other dishes. The seeds can also be ground and added to water to create a mucilaginous gel similar to what develops when chia seeds are added to water. This gel can be drunk or used as an egg replacement in gluten-free and flour-free baking.

Lemons Rock!
Here is some good info on Lemons... I Love Lemons!
10 Reasons Why You Should Drink Warm Lemon Water in the Morning
Instead of getting a cup of coffee, why not replace it with a warm water lemon drink!? Below are the good factors to consider.
1. Boosts your immune system: Lemons are high in vitamin C, which is great for fighting colds. They’re high in potassium, which stimulates brain and nerve function. Potassium also helps control blood pressure.
2. Balances pH: Drink lemon water everyday and you’ll reduce your body’s overall acidity. Lemon is one of the most alkaline foods around. Yes, lemon has citric acid but it does not create acidity in the body once metabolized.
3. Helps with weight loss: Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps fight hunger cravings. It also has been shown that people who maintain a more alkaline diet lose weight faster.
4. Aids digestion: Lemon juice helps flush out unwanted materials. It encourages the liver to produce bile which is an acid that required for digestion. Efficient digestion reduces heartburn and constipation.
5. Is a diuretic: Lemons increase the rate of urination in the body, which helps purify it. Toxins are, therefore, released at a faster rate which helps keep your urinary tract healthy.
6. Clears skin: The vitamin C component helps decrease wrinkles and blemishes. Lemon water purges toxins from the blood which helps keep skin clear as well. It can actually be applied directly to scars to help reduce their appearance.
7. Freshens breath: Not only this, but it can help relieve tooth pain and gingivitis. The citric acid can erode tooth enamel, so you should monitor this.
8. Relieves respiratory problems: Warm lemon water helps get rid of chest infections and halt those pesky coughs. It’s thought to be helpful to people with asthma and allergies too.
9. Keeps you zen: Vitamin C is one of the first things depleted when you subject your mind and body to stress. As mentioned previously, lemons are chock full of vitamin C.
10. Helps kick the coffee habit: After taking a glass of warm lemon water, most people suggests of less craving for coffee in the morning.
Why it has to be warm water not cold? Cold water likely provides a shock or stress factor to the body. It takes energy for your body to process cold water.
The recipe is really simple - a cup of warm water (not hot) and the juice from half of a lemon.

Defining Gel and Peripheral Neuropathy
*** As Always, I want to include that I do not have a medical degree, and that I cannot provide medical advice, but the testimonials from It Works products are amazing! The impact and results cannot be ignored! I know also that our Defining Gel has many uses other than Cellulite firming, which is it's marketed use! I have personally seen amazing results on Eczema***
TESTIMONY!!
"OK this is my story about Defining Gel!!! (Love it) I have suffered from Peripheral Neuropathy for almost 5 years & am amazed at how much better my feet look & feel This is a very graphic picture of my feet before It Works & after. I am using Defining Gel on my feet twice a day, Greens once a day & the wraps ..... .... Once again, sorry I know the picture is graphic!"---Debbie www.rockyourbodywraps.com

Avoid Splenda!
Toxic Chemical Being Sold as a Health-Conscious Sweetener
February 21, 2012
Splenda Essentials pretend to be health-supporting, when in fact they seem to have more in common with pesticides than with sugar.
Sucralose, sold under the brand name Splenda, is simply chlorinated sugar; in chemical terms, it is a chlorocarbon. The idea behind this is that the body would no longer recognize it as sugar. But, as Johns Hopkins-trained physician and biochemist James Bowen, MD, points out, chlorine is “nature’s Doberman attack dog—a highly excitable, ferocious atomic element employed as a biocide in bleach, disinfectants, insecticide, WWI poison gas and hydrochloric acid.” Common chlorocarbons include chlordane and DDT, a product so harmful that it is now banned for agricultural use the world over.
Now Splenda is selling a product called Splenda Essentials. Different formulations contain B vitamins, antioxidants (vitamins C and E), or fiber. The marketing and advertising appear to be targeting health-conscious people who are interested in vitamins and nutrition—despite the fact that Splenda is highly toxic and has no place in a healthy diet.
Splenda’s advertising says the addition of B1, B5, and B6 “help support a healthy metabolism.” The antioxidant product “contains vitamin C and E, like those found in fruits and vegetables,” while the fiber product is touted as containing “one gram of healthy fiber.” It is worth noting that the regular Splenda product already contains fiber—the powdery dextrose and/or maltodextrin that forms the carrier for the sweetener—but only between 0.5 and 1.0 grams of it. For the fiber product, they bumped it up an even 1.0 grams. Whoopee.
For the vitamins, Splenda has added 20% of the recommended daily allowance; for the fiber, they’ve added 0.03% of the RDA.
With the minute amounts of nutrients per packet, one would need to be consuming unconscionable numbers of packets to make any impact at all on one’s health—that is, provided one weren’t also consuming the sucralose itself! As we noted last year, Splenda alters the microflora in the intestine and “exerts numerous adverse effects,” according to a Duke University study, including an increase in body weight (not quite what a “diet aid” is supposed to do!) and an elevation of liver enzymes, which hurts the bioavailability of nutrients.
In “The Lethal Science of Splenda, a Poisonous Chlorocarbon,” Dr. Bowen says that “any chlorocarbons not directly excreted from the body intact can cause immense damage to the processes of human metabolism and, eventually, our internal organs. The liver is a detoxification organ which deals with ingested poisons. Chlorocarbons damage the hepatocytes, the liver’s metabolic cells, and destroy them.”
Dr. Bowen notes that the high solvency of chlorocarbons like Splenda attacks the human nervous system and can produce cancer, birth defects, and immune system destruction. In test animals, Splenda produced swollen livers (as do all chlorocarbon poisons), calcified their kidneys, shrunk their thymus glands (the biological seat of immunity) and produced liver inflammation.
Our colleagues at ANH-Europe point out other adverse effects in animals as a result of sucralose ingestion: DNA damage in gastrointestinal organs, increase in the number of normal cells in the surface tissue of the kidney, hemorrhagic degeneration of the adrenal cortex (which regulates carbohydrate and fat metabolism, salt, and water balance), incidence of cataracts, marked gastrointestinal disturbance, and deaths in pregnant rabbits and aborted rabbit fetuses. Splenda’s adverse effects in humans include headaches and migraines and a long list of consumer-reported side effects including skin rashes/flushing, panic-like agitation, dizziness and numbness, diarrhea, swelling, muscle aches, intestinal cramping, bladder issues, and stomach pain.
Splenda has replaced aspartame as the number one artificial sweetener in foods and beverages; aspartame’s popularity declined after the public learned that that it is both a neurotoxin and an underlying cause of chronic illness. As Dr. Bowen warns, “We should not be fooled again into accepting the safety of a toxic chemical on the blessing of the FDA and saturation advertising. In terms of potential long-term human toxicity we should regard sucralose with its chemical cousin DDT, the insecticide now outlawed because of its horrendous long term toxicities at even minute trace levels in human, avian, and mammalian tissues.”
Splenda’s online marketing includes a series of YouTube videos called Splenda Essential Choices for Healthy Living, which features an ADA-certified Registered Dietitian giving people health advice—though we might call it “natural health lite”—including prominent endorsements of Splenda Essentials.
ANH-USA is filing a citizen petition with the Federal Trade Commission regarding Splenda’s deceptive advertising. Their marketing clearly targets health-conscious people interested in nutrition, while trying to pass off a toxic chemical as healthy.
February 21, 2012
Splenda Essentials pretend to be health-supporting, when in fact they seem to have more in common with pesticides than with sugar.
Sucralose, sold under the brand name Splenda, is simply chlorinated sugar; in chemical terms, it is a chlorocarbon. The idea behind this is that the body would no longer recognize it as sugar. But, as Johns Hopkins-trained physician and biochemist James Bowen, MD, points out, chlorine is “nature’s Doberman attack dog—a highly excitable, ferocious atomic element employed as a biocide in bleach, disinfectants, insecticide, WWI poison gas and hydrochloric acid.” Common chlorocarbons include chlordane and DDT, a product so harmful that it is now banned for agricultural use the world over.
Now Splenda is selling a product called Splenda Essentials. Different formulations contain B vitamins, antioxidants (vitamins C and E), or fiber. The marketing and advertising appear to be targeting health-conscious people who are interested in vitamins and nutrition—despite the fact that Splenda is highly toxic and has no place in a healthy diet.
Splenda’s advertising says the addition of B1, B5, and B6 “help support a healthy metabolism.” The antioxidant product “contains vitamin C and E, like those found in fruits and vegetables,” while the fiber product is touted as containing “one gram of healthy fiber.” It is worth noting that the regular Splenda product already contains fiber—the powdery dextrose and/or maltodextrin that forms the carrier for the sweetener—but only between 0.5 and 1.0 grams of it. For the fiber product, they bumped it up an even 1.0 grams. Whoopee.
For the vitamins, Splenda has added 20% of the recommended daily allowance; for the fiber, they’ve added 0.03% of the RDA.
With the minute amounts of nutrients per packet, one would need to be consuming unconscionable numbers of packets to make any impact at all on one’s health—that is, provided one weren’t also consuming the sucralose itself! As we noted last year, Splenda alters the microflora in the intestine and “exerts numerous adverse effects,” according to a Duke University study, including an increase in body weight (not quite what a “diet aid” is supposed to do!) and an elevation of liver enzymes, which hurts the bioavailability of nutrients.
In “The Lethal Science of Splenda, a Poisonous Chlorocarbon,” Dr. Bowen says that “any chlorocarbons not directly excreted from the body intact can cause immense damage to the processes of human metabolism and, eventually, our internal organs. The liver is a detoxification organ which deals with ingested poisons. Chlorocarbons damage the hepatocytes, the liver’s metabolic cells, and destroy them.”

It Works New Headquarters!
Not bad for a Debt-free Company, Huh???? It Works Buy $3.1 Million Palmetto HQ
"It Works! Global, a supplement company based in Palmetto, has purchased a new headquarters to accommodate its rapidly expanding business.
The company paid $3.125 million for a 36,000-square-foot retail plaza that overlooks Manatee River. About 800 customers each month will come from around the country to decide whether they’d like to become independent distributors selling It Works! dietary supplements and weight loss body wraps, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune said.
It Works! Owner Mark Pentecost now sells his product to 33,000 independent distributors worldwide, the Herald-Tribunesaid. He also owns Stoneybrook Golf Course at Heritage Harbour.
The plaza at 908 Riverside Drive in Palmetto was built in 2002 and was one of the first properties in the area to be foreclosed on six years ago as the property market bubble burst, the Herald-Tribunesaid. "
