Training Center in Albuquerque

We are very excited to announce that we will be opening a training center in Albuquerque.  We should be ready to have classes by mid June. We will have classes on health, herbs, diet, cooking and many other topics. Watch healthandweightlossclinic.com for more information.

What Excitotoxins do to you

Excitotoxins are food additives that are added to our food to enhance flavor, give a uniform taste and color.  However did you know what excitotoxins do to you?

1. Rob you of the ability to feel full although you have eaten. 
2. Over stimulate the pancreatic production of insulin that turns the sugar in the blood stream to fat and stores it on your body. 
3. Cause exhaustion shortly after you have eaten. 
4. Cause you to crave food. 
5. Over stimulate the nerves, then kills it (the black widow of food additives). 

If you have more body fat than you think you should, you need to wrap your head around this fact: YOU ARE A VICTIM. The makers of all the food products use these food additives and many others that I have not yet talked about to do only one thing: get your money. Through advertising and political lobbies, they make “bad” look good and legal. That doesn’t make it moral. Again, we cannot change them but we can use the information in the WoW plan to free ourselves from their influence in our lives forever. 

To see what excitotoxins are in our food see this article.

Spotlight on: Travl

TRAVL can be used as a catalyst.  Let’s say, for instance, that you are taking an herbal formula and you want it to work a little bit faster, or a little better; take one capsule of TRAVL with the formula.  One is sufficient as a catalyst.  If you are taking a handful of herbs, add some TRAVL.  It increases the absorption, and gets the herbs into the system much faster. (WARNING this will have the same effect on pharmaceuticals in that it will dump all the medicine in the pharmaceuticals at once and that is not good)

Traditional use of the contents: Ginger’s influence is slow starting, but has a high sustained level of action upon the circulatory system. Also used for nausea, cramps and dizziness.  Cayenne positively influences the circulatory system, and helpful for dizziness, heart problems, and for both heat and cold tolerance. Peppermint Leaf has been used for pain, nerve disorders, headache and insomnia.  Rosemary Leaf is used for circulatory problems, allergies, nervous   allergies, and pain and digestive pain.  

Recipe: Pumpkin Nut Chiffon 

Dr James suggests that you get 3-5 tablespoons of coconut oil a day.  Why not enjoy eating that coconut oil.  This is one of our favorites way to add coconut oil to our diet:

1 cup Coconut Oil 

1/3 cup Honey 

1/3 cup Pumpkin 

1 1/2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice 

1/2 teaspoon Vanilla 

1/2 cup Chopped nuts 

Whip coconut oil with mixer until fluffy (2-3 minutes). Add honey, pumpkin, spice, and vanilla; continue whipping until well combined, approx. 1 minute; scrape sides as necessary. Add nuts, mix to combine. I use mini silicone baking cups but mini muffin tins work great or just spread on baking sheet and freeze 20 minutes. Cut into 1 inch squares.

How to Choose your oils

Continuing our series on good fats and oils, this month we tell you how to choose good oils:

Fats and oils are very important to health but only unrefined, extra virgin, unrefined virgin, unrefined cold pressed or unrefined expeller pressed oils. NO canola or supermarket oils. Fats and oils are not the enemy and are essential (coconut is one of the best).

Fats & Oils

Unrefined is the first thing to look for. If not on the bottleSTOP. You don’t want it. 

LOOK FOR – Unrefined: this is el primo. When it is on the bottle continue to look for:

Extra Virgin - an excellent choice. Generally the fullest flavor and aroma and the best quality.   Or 

Virgin - a very good choice still very aromatic and flavorful.   Or

Cold Pressed - good quality and good to cook with.    Or

Expeller Pressed - decent quality and ok to cook with.

Oils to avoid have the words:

Refined - very bad, even though the label may say extra virgin, virgin, cold pressed or expeller processed.

Pure - very bad even though the label may say extra virgin, virgin, cold pressed or expeller processed.

Polyunsaturated - stay away from these oils, they are very bad not because they are polyunsaturated but that is all they are.

Vegetable oil - a term that allows almost any chemical they want to use including solvents and deodorizers.

Shortening - most generally made of rancid oils. Nickel is used in process of hydrogenation.

Margarine – the melting point is well above normal body temperature and cannot be used in the body.

Hydrogenated oil or partially hydrogenated - most generally made of rancid oils. Nickel is used in processing of hydrogenation.

Canola oil – whether found in a health food store or not is a genetically created (GMO) plant from the rape seed which is very toxic to humans. NO canola or supermarket oils.

Spotlight on: Vitamin D

Vitamin D helps the body absorb minerals, strengthens cells bones and teeth, and strengthens the immune system and fight diseases.  Vitamin D has also been shown to help the body keep fat from building up.

A lack of D vitamin makes us susceptible to flu and other illness. In the US each year 1 million people get the flu and of these half are hospitalized and of those 1,000 die from the flu, the other 34,000 deaths reported as the flu upon closer examination of records are pneumonia not flu. Proponents of the flu shot will admit it will not help pneumonia.

The flu shot is not the answer even if there were proof that it was effective and there is none. These shots put in to the body a toxic dose of mercury established by the CDC (25 mcg for a person weighing under 350 lbs.), also aluminum, and Ethylene glycol (Antifreeze), and last years Flu virus. What an adverting campaign. If it is last years Flu, whether you got it or not, you probably have antibody’s to defeat it unless you’re overwhelmed by all the other toxins in this shot.

To prepare for the flu season get plenty of good sunshine and boost your immune system with C-Plexand Fection. If you already have the flu and want help try:

1. 1,000 IU Vitamin D per 1 lb. body weight 1 dose a day for 3 days.
2. C-Plex, Throb Eaz and Fection

Recipe: Red Chili Sauce

Red chili is in season here in New Mexico.  This sauce will give a wonderful addition to your meals.  We even use it as a salad dressing, good tasting and no excitotoxins

10 pods Red chili

3 cups Water

1 tablespoon Coconut oil

1/4 cup Flour, sprouted

1 teaspoon Salt, sea

1/2 teaspoon Oregano

2 cloves Garlic, fresh, minced

1. Roast the chilies in an oven at 200 degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes. Stir frequently so they do not burn. Remove the seeds and stems.
2. Put chilies and water into medium pan. Simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Put 1/2 the chilies with some of the cooking water into a blender. Purée and then strain. Discard the peels and seeds. Repeat with the other 1/2 of the chilies.
4. Heat oil in medium saucepan. Add sprouted flour and brown for 1 minute.
5. Add strained chili, the remaining cooking water and one additional cup of water.
6. Add, salt, oregano and garlic. Simmer for 15 minutes. 

Or a quick sauce, use frozen red chili purée instead of soaked dried chilies. Defrost the frozen chili and follow steps 4 through 6.  For enchilada sauce some like to add tomato juice for a more mild flavor.

Avocados

This is the third article in our series of good fats and oils.  We have talked about coconut oil, butter and now avocado. 

First off lets address the concern that avocados are high in fat. Yes avocados do have a high fat content (85% of the calories come from fat.) However the fat that is in avocados is essential to good health. The fat in avocados not only have been shown to help prevent heart disease and cancer, avocados also contain many essential nutrients and helps with the absorption of fat soluble vitamins and nutrients. Studies of people who eat avocados have shown that even though they have a diet that is higher in fat from the avocados the people in the study did not any more body fat in fact in some cases it was lower, yet all of the people that had avocado in their diet had a better concentration of vitamins E and K, and better absorption of potassium and magnesium.  So even though there is fat in avocados it is very beneficial in fact essential.

One key group of nutrients in the avocado is the carotenoids.  Carotenoids are a group of antioxidants that help repair cell damage, clean the body of toxins, and improve eye health. Carotenoids also help with skin health and elasticity. Avocados are also high in the vitamins A,B,C,E, and K, as well as phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, copper and iron.

As a part of the WoW plan adding avocado to your diet will give many added health benefits.  We suggest adding avocado to your salads, and as a garnish to many meals.

Spotlight on Bladney

BLADNEY gets it’s name from both bladder and kidney. When people experience swelling, puffiness, lower back pain or painful urination, they need fluid removed from their system.  BLADNEY is not primarily a diuretic.  It is a formula that supplies the urinary tract with what it needs to function properly.

 BLADNEY puts into the system what it needs in order to be healthy, so that the normal body function returns and the kidney and bladder do their jobs.  In order for the body to deal with swollen tissues properly, it is necessary to continually drink water to keep the body from hoarding the fluid in it’s tissues.  Water, coupled with the BLADNEY formula, helps to normalize the body’s sodium and potassium levels.  BLADNEY helps keep the potassium in the system, unlike many chemical diuretics that chase it right out.

Recipe: Ways to use avocado

1.  One of my favorite ways to eat avocado is to spread the avocado on toast and lightly sprinkle with sea salt.  If you have never had it that way I strongly suggest it.

2. As a salad dressing:

one avocado

olive oil

salt 

pepper 

garlic

onion powder

Green Chili (optional, but we love it)

Mash the avocado and add the spices to taste. Add olive oil to a creamy texture. Mix in with your salad.  This salad dressing will make the nutrients in your salad much more absorbable and easy to digest.

Coconut Oil

Spotlight on Healthy Cell

Recipe:  Cabbage Carrot Slaw

Coconut OIl

There are a few products that we recommend everyone use when they come to the clinic. Just by making these few changes it can dramatically change a person’s health. These changes are minerals, vitamins and change their oil to coconut oil.   We wanted to explain why it is so important to change your oil to coconut oil.

Fats and oils are the fuels of the liver, just like when you use bad gas in your car it can cause problems throughout your car, bad fats and oils can cause problems throughout your body. Virgin Raw coconut oil like Tropical Traditions Gold Label coconut oil in a persons diet has been shown to:

• improve the absorption of nutrients
• boosts energy
• normalizes body weight
• helps with digestive disorders
• reduces candida
• builds up the immune system
• strengthens the liver
• cleans out the arteries
• cleans out the bowels
• helps with normal bowel function
• normalizes the bodies use of sugar (diabetes and hypoglycemia)
• Clears up skin conditions
• plus many other benefits

As you can see by this list just changing your oil to coconut oil can dramatically change your overall health and we all want to be healthy.  We suggest getting at least 3 tablespoons of extra virgin coconut oil each day.  We know that it will help with your health.

Spotlight on: Healthy Cell

Have you heard about these green super food powders on the market today?  There are several available on the market.  We had thought that we could just pull one off the shelf and use it.  We should know better by now shouldn’t we.  As we looked at the products we saw many ingredients that we did not like such as caffeine, sugar, and excitotoxins. We tried some and we called them all pond scum, they were nasty! So we knew we could make the same thing but be in control of what went into the powder and control the taste.  That is how Healthy Cell was born.

Healthy Cell is a powder that we have been using in the clinic for several years now. It gets its name from the fact that it helps feed our cells to make them healthy.  We use it to help clients alkalinize their body, lose weight, build muscles, clean out toxins, normalize body functions and increase energy. People who use the Healthy Cell have said the change in their health has been amazing.

To use mix 1 scoop (one tablespoon) in 8 ounces of water. Taken 2-3 times daily.

Recipe:  Cabbage Carrot Slaw

This recipe comes from our WoW diet program.  This 60 day program helps detoxify, lose weight and have much better health and attitudes.  In the clinic the program costs nearly $2000.  We are working on making the program available for just the cost of the supplements around $500-$600. The program will be available this month.

   1 1/2 cups cabbage, chopped fine

    1 1/2 cups carrots, grated fine

    1/2 cup onions, chopped fine

    1/2 cup celery, chopped fine

    1 tablespoon lemon juice

    1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

    1/2 teaspoon sea salt

I use my food processor with the chopping blade to chop my vegetables. I cut the cabbage into 2 inch pieces and then pulse till all big pieces are chopped, same with the celery and onion. Mix everything together and chill for an hour.
