“Our climate in Hawaii is humid at times and so the Recovery beverage mix became a solid mass because I didn’t use it frequently. I put the whole remaining solid chunk into my Vita Mix to pulverize it back into a powder. Then I put some of it back into the VitaMix with water, some ice and some Brown Cow vanilla yogurt. It was SO delicious….tasted like an orange Creamsicle from my youth. Besides it tasting so good and hitting the spot after exercise, it also renews your energy. We will never have another Recovery mix last long enough to harden on us ever again. I am sure that you could do this in a regular blender as well as a VitaMix.”
Serving for two (Blend to mix and enjoy):
1 cup or so of cold water.
3 to 5 ice cubes
3 scoops of Recovery
½ to 1 cup of vanilla yogurt

“Don recently fell at the golf course in the rough looking for a ball. He tripped over a rock and took a bad fall. The fingernail on his left hand split and was swollen. I mixed a poultice with the powder from Bone/Skin Poultice, Lobelia and Golden Seal into the salve of Golden Salve. He has been putting this on every day and the pain is gone, the split of the nail that ran almost the length of the whole nail has healed!! Herbs really do work!! He also used the Silver Shield Gel on the scrapes on his arm which were red and inflamed. They healed so quickly. Phyllis, Honolulu, HI

Increased Blood Levels of the Omega-3 Fatty Acids EPA and DHA
Could Postpone Age-related Cognitive Decline That May Precede
Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease
Currently, about 12 million people in the US plus the EU suffer from Alzheimer’s, with estimates predicting this figure will triple by 2050. But regular consumption of omega-3-rich food could prevent age-related cognitive decline.
Over a period of five years, consumption of approximately 400 mg omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA a day reduces cognitive decline when compared with those who consume only about 20 mg a day of the fatty acids. Greater blood omega-3 fatty acid levels may prevent a decline in verbal fluency.
The brains of Alzheimer disease patients have a lower content of DHA in the grey matter of the frontal lobe and hippocampus than do the brains of persons without the disease.
People who are hypertensive may benefit from enriching their diet with omega-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids, found mostly in cold-water fish and other foods of marine origin.
For safety, only use extracted fish oils are molecularly distilled to one part per billion to remove contaminants.

Nutri-Burn—Great New Taste
and All the Nutrition You Need!
Nutri-Burn high-protein meal replacement is a weight watcher’s dream—a quick, easy and complete reduced-calorie meal come true. It can also be taken while on trips to provide nourishment when cooking may be impracticable, to provide essential nutrition and electrolytes for convalescents, and to benefit athletes with its body-building and energizing nutrients. Many people use it daily as a convenient meal substitute (breakfast anyone?) even if they do not need to lose weight.
Satisfied Until Lunch
“Nutri-Burn is a fantastic meal replacement. I love the chocolate-fudge flavor and look forward to it every morning. I can’t eat a more healthful breakfast for the same price and for the same amount of calories that are in Nutri-Burn. It contains everything good—vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, good fats and carbohydrates—and nothing bad. The appetite-suppressing ingredients and the nutrients in Nutri-Burn easily get me through until lunch. I wouldn’t take it if it didn’t keep me satisfied. In fact, I put down sod in my yard for the past two Saturdays. I had a Nutri-Burn shake for breakfast each time, and it gave me plenty of energy to lay sod for four or five hours before eating lunch. And, when I’m working my office job, it’s a breeze to make it to lunch. I take Nutri-Burn because it makes me feel good about what I’m doing for my body.” Matt Savage, NSP Customer, Provo, UT

Losing Weight and Feeling Great
“I have lost 10 pounds so far with Nutri-Burn*, and I feel great taking it! I have it every day for breakfast and lunch. My work keeps me busy throughout the entire day, and sitting down to eat a meal at lunchtime is often not an option. The appetite-suppressing ingredients and protein and fiber in Nutri-Burn keep me satisfied all day long, and I know I’m getting the right nutrition for my body. I love the chocolate-fudge flavor and am excited to try the new vanilla flavor so I can mix in a little GreenZone® or some of my favorite fruits, too!” Sharon Salyer, Area Manager, Kansas City, MO

SHOULD I HAVE A FLU SHOT?
Flu vaccines can contain a number of chemical toxins, including ethylene glycol (antifreeze), formaldehyde, phenol (carbolic acid) and even antibiotics like Neomycin and streptomycin. In addition to the viruses and other additives, many vaccines also contain immune adjuvants like aluminum and squalene.
The purpose of an immune adjuvant added to a vaccine is to enhance (turbo charge) your immune response to the vaccination. Adjuvants cause your immune system to overreact to the introduction of the organism you’re being vaccinated against. Adjuvants are supposed to get the job done faster (but certainly not more safely), which reduces the amount of vaccine required per dose, and the number of doses given per individual.
A 2000 study published in the American Journal of Pathology demonstrated a single injection of the adjuvant squalene into rats triggered “chronic, immune-mediated joint-specific inflammation,” also known as rheumatoid arthritis. (The American Journal of Pathology, The Endogenous Adjuvant Squalene Can Induce a Chronic T-Cell-Mediated Arthritis in Rats, 2000 http://ajp.amjpathol.org/cgi/content/abstract/156/6/2057) The researchers concluded the study raised questions about the role of adjuvants in chronic inflammatory diseases.
Do yourself a favor this flu season and avoid the vaccine with its inherent (and unknown dangers) and the flu by making the healthy choice to start taking care of your body and giving it what it needs so your immune system can respond favorably to the flu. To get off to a great start, take Super Trio packets twice daily. Then consider adding the following items:
• Take a minimum of 2000 mg. of Vitamin D3. Many experts suggest 4000 mg. daily.
• Get plenty of rest and exercise. Listen to your body when you are tired and take some “down time.”
• Balance your body’s pH (viruses can’t live in a neutral pH) by eating healthy foods and avoiding sugar and sugar laden products. If you crave sweets have a Nature’s Sweet candy bar which contains Xylitol. GreenZone Ultimate (bulk), Barley Juice Powder Conc( capsules)., or Super Algae (capsules) taken daily can also help balance the pH. Have Xylitol lemonade, hot or cold, instead of soda.
• Get a good multivitamin with minerals every day such as Vitawave (liquid) or Super Supplemental (tablets) (alone or in Super Trio).
• Use probiotics daily such as Bifidophilus Flora Force or Probiotic Eleven.
• Add a product(s) daily to build the immune system such as Thai-go, Trigger Immune TCM Conc., Immune Stimulator and/or Colostrum with Immune Factors through out the cold and flu season.
• When exposed to illness boost your immune response with Fizz Active-Immune.
• Have plenty of Silver Shield on hand to use at the very first signs of a cold or the flu. Olive Leaf Extract and VS-C when combines with Silver Shield are very effective at knocking out an infection if you start it as soon as you get symptoms.
