Your Gut Health



In Today’s Modern World,  it is difficult to find a person whose intestinal functioning is not impaired as a result of poor dietary habits and adverse environmental influences. Constipation, intestinal gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and the growing problem of fungal diseases and parasites can often be traced back to disrupted intestinal functions. 



Through our past eating habits, emotional pressures and environmental stress our bodies have become reservoirs for toxic waste. Layer upon layer of mucoid plaque has been built up in our intestinal tract. Elimination of waste does not function at optimal levels, our kidneys aren’t excreting fully, our liver is not detoxifying completely, the bile is not flowing properly, the pancreas can not produce the enzymes meant for digestion, fats and cholesterol have built up, skin problems have emerged, chronic fungal problems or candida won’t go away, and our immune systems have become so compromised.  


In our modern culture, we seem to have lost touch with the basic understanding of how real health is attained. 
 
Through applying the principles of modern scientific research with the traditions of cleansing the intestine through the use of herbs and natural substances, the body can be helped exponentially. For thousands of years native peoples have known that healing comes from our connection with the Earth to help us regain vibrant health.
Cleaning your colon is one step to getting it all out. When you combine colon cleansing with other body cleansing processes, like liver cleansing and other advanced protocols, it's possible to reach even deeper levels of toxicity in the body, which can remove even more difficult to eliminate disease.







Right now there's a war raging inside your digestive tract. Billions of "good guy" beneficial bacteria (called probiotics, which literally means "for life") are defending you against an army of  pathogens. Your total health depends upon the good guys.


 If you suffer from frequent gas, bloating, constipation, and diarrhea, these are warning signs that your good guys are loosing the war. 




Let’s learn to incorporate Fermented Foods in our diet. It May Be the Healthiest, Most Affordable and Easiest to Make Superfoods on the Planet ! Yes, including Probiotic Desserts ..

Discover the Yin-Yang Herbs to Make You Feel Better in our Cleansing with SuperHerbs Workshop

It's  a field of healthcare that will hopefully help us achieve radiant health. By grasping the secrets of the Chinese healthcare art on how herbs are classified, selected and used


 Did you know that in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), it’s not just the nutrients in a food but also the “hot” and “cold” of certain foods that can make you feel better?  Here’s why : each food has an energetic property of yin or yang. These are thought of as complimentary pairs that are constantly shifting in relationship to one another. Easy ways to think about it: Yin is to yang as night is to day…quiet is to busy…and cold is to hot. It is believed that we absorb yin (cold) or yang (hot) energy from the foods we eat—and that medical conditions are manifestations of these yin-yang imbalances. This means: We can  correct imbalances with the appropriate yin-yang foods. Find out more about this approach to healing

 The warming and cooling properties of a food has more to do with the food’s balance and contrast among ingredients and the effect of these on the body when the food is ingested. TCM categorizes foods as cold, cooling, neutral, warming and hot. As explained above, yin is related to cold foods and yang to hot foods. STAYING IN BALANCE The concept of yin and yang was introduced by Confucius in his five classic works, the I Ching. The philosophy states that imbalances in the life force (qi) cause illness and unhappiness. Hence, by adjusting your diet you can regain equilibrium. Using yin-yang foods to gain equilibrium is not an exact science. There is no one percentage or quantity of yin-yang foods to eat.

 Focus mainly on eating foods that support his yin/yang needs. Common health conditions and their imbalances include… Conditions affected by too much heat (yang) in the body: High blood pressure, skin rash, hot flashes. Consume: Cool or cold foods that promote yin energy. Conditions arising from too much cold (yin) in the body: Fatigue, depression, muscle ache, stuffy nose, cough with clear white phlegm, fluid retention. Consume: Warm or hot foods that promote yang energy. Conditions that alternatively arise from too much cold or heat in the body: Constipation, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, asthma, headache. Consume: Some conditions are helped by either hot or cold foods. Take constipation, for example. If you have dry, hard stools, then you have yin-deficient constipation and need more moisture/yin foods. If you have yang-deficient constipation with wetter stools, then you may need more yang foods. 

 The yin-yang value of some foods… You can balance the yin-yang property of your food by adding “cold” spices and foods to warm or hot foods and vice versa. Yang foods (hot): Cayenne pepper, dried ginger, soybean oil, cinnamon, black pepper, chili powder, horseradish, lamb, trout and whole green or red peppers. Yang foods (warming): Cherries, coconut, lemons, raspberries, cauliflower, mustard greens, onion, coffee, garlic, fresh ginger, chestnuts, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, chicken, shrimp, mussels, lobster, turkey, yogurt, butter. Yin foods (cooling): Apples, bananas, pears, strawberries, broccoli, cabbage, eggplant, spinach, Swiss chard, celery, soybeans, buckwheat, sesame oil. Yin foods (cold): Papaya, watermelon, grapefruit, tomatoes, asparagus, cucumbers, summer squash, romaine lettuce, seaweed, barley, tofu. Neutral foods: Neutral foods are believed to be nourishing to everyone—and don’t increase the yin or yang balance in the body. Neutral foods include apricots, figs, pineapple, beets, cabbage, carrots, olives, pumpkin, string beans, yams, eggs, oats, almonds, peas, peanuts, rice, beef, oysters, pork, whitefish, salmon, sardines, herring and saffron. If you are interested in learning more about how yin-yang foods can help you, join our workshop. Hope to see you there !

Today's Daily Burst

Here' a drink that would go well with our Kefir Cake. You can make your own twist to this thirst-quenching, electrolyte-boosting “energy” drink.  It is similar to commercially made sports drinks thanks to the potassium and magnesium in molasses. It looks like iced coffee…and is tastiest served chilled, without ice. Here’s what you need for four servings: 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar…1/4 cup honey…2 Tablespoons unsulphured molasses…1 Tablespoon lemon juice…1 teaspoon ground ginger. In a pot, combine the first three ingredients with 4 cups cold water. Warm just until the honey dissolves. Mix in the lemon juice and ginger. Chill well. Serve in a chilled glass. Enjoy!
