The Miracle Juice of Aloe Vera

Back when I was a child, we had an aloe vera plant and one time I cut my hand. My mother cut one of the leaves and some gel oozed out. It helped my cut and I was in amazement of this wonder plant that could be used to help heal wounds and burns. Aloe vera to me is a miracle plant and scientifically research has been studying it since the 1930's when the US as well as Russia showed that it has a dramatic effect to heal wounds, ulcers(aloe vera juice), burns. It puts a protective coat on the affected area, which speeds up healing. This is due partly to aloectin B, which stimulates the immune system. It a great emollient, secretes bile and can also be used for a laxative. Very soothing for upset stomachs and if you have digestive problems and become sick easily, drink some aloe vera juice before eating.

Now, March 1-15th, one of my very favorite products with Nature Sunshine is on special! I have used it before and it soothes the skin as well as the tissues lining the digestive tract. I generally take some before I eat. I will not lie and say that it taste delicious and many companies will say that, but most aloe vera on the main markets have lost many of the original benefits of the plant due to over-processing. Do be wary of companies that claim their aloe vera juice taste great. Removing some of the 'disgreeable taste' of the plant leaves a product that is only 10-15% aloe vera!. I can tell you that it will soothe your stomach as it does mine and you will feel better in long run, knowing you are taking care of your health and not becoming dependent on a drug or tums. Tums is another product that is not good to become dependent upon. Aloe vera on the other hand is a healing plant! Take a look at my site on aloe vera
I love this deal as you can stock up if you want or just order one for now and see what a wonder plant it is!

Get A Peaceful Night's Rest

Get a peaceful night's rest and Nature Sunshine has some specials, my favorite natural supplements and I have used these and they both help with sleep!

Melatonin Extra: the benefits


  • Supports the nervous system.
  • Helps promote the body’s natural sleep rhythm.
  • Helps you feel more alert and rested after a night’s sleep.
  • May help fight jet lag.
  • Provides 3 mg melatonin per capsule.
Melatonin Extra®—3 mg [Glandular] is an exclusive NSP formula containing melatonin, a natural compound produced by the pineal gland (located in the center of the brain). Melatonin is vitally important to health when you consider three factors: aging, energy and sleep. As people age they produce less melatonin. 

Melatonin can help restore the body’s natural sleep rhythm. Used as directed, it may help you feel more alert and satisfied after a full night of rest. In addition, mounting evidence shows that melatonin acts as a powerful antioxidant, meaning it may benefit the body’s immune system. 

Each capsule of Melatonin Extra contains 3 mg of melatonin (derived from non-bovine sources), combined with Ginkgo biloba concentrate (standardized to 24 percent glycosides), Ginkgo biloba leaves (may aid circulation to the brain), eleuthero (a famous adaptogen known to have a calming effect on the nervous system) and 30 IU (100 percent Daily Value) of vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol).

CAUTION: Melatonin should not be taken during the day; it may cause drowsiness. It is not recommended for use by children, teenagers or pregnant or lactating women. Do not take this product when driving a motor vehicle or operating machinery.

Adults: Take 1 capsule 30 minutes prior to bedtime.



Nutri-calm, benefits:


  • Supports the nervous system.
  • Soothes frayed nerves.
  • Aids in relaxation and encourages restful sleep.
  • Boosts the immune system.
  • Is a source of antioxidants (vitamin C and lemon bioflavonoids).
  • Provides 100% or more of the daily value of nine important nutrients.
Nutri-Calm® [Nervous] is a key product designed to support the nervous system, especially when under stress. During times of stress, the body rapidly loses B vitamins. Nutri-Calm provides generous amounts of these nutrients in a base of herbs known to support optimal nervous system health.
 
Adults: Take 1 tablet with a meal three times daily. 


My favorite is Nutri-Calm, its very safe to use and it helps me to wind down when I've had a long stressful day!

Collodial or Silver Shield

Have you ever heard of Nature Sunshine's own Sliver Shield? It is collodial silver, perhaps you have heard of collodial silver? Let me tell you a little story of my own experience of it-a true story at that. I have never gotten the flu shot! Many years ago, I almost did though. Some people at work had about talked me into in it, and my other co-worker got it, but had gotten the flu afterwards. So I backed out and decided not too. I have always went with my natural remedies as a defense. They had always worked for me too! Around flu season, I would just stock up on vitamin c, elderberry or echinecea and drink green tea. Someone had recommended Nature Sunshine's Silver Shield and I had bought some, but with my other remedies, just put it up in the medicine cabinet and hadn't used it.

Then, about three years ago, there was a bad virus being passed around at work, people were getting ill, going back and forth to the doctors, but simply re-infecting, despite taking antitbiotics, etc. Some people had the thing for several weeks. As I mentioned I have a great immune system, but after being around the constant coughing, sneezing, etc for several weeks at a time, I got it :( It was a bad one alright, now iniitally I did try and get into see a doctor, but when I called to make an appointment, was told the doctor was all booked and wouldnt be able to see me for at least three weeks! Well, to heck with that, no wonder I always go with my own natural meds instead of seeing a doctor when I get sick! I said no way! By that time, I'd either be well or dead lol. So I decided to just tough it out, I had already missed a day of week. I was out of both my immunity herbals(echinecea & elderberry). I sure didnt feel like going to a store as I was sick anyways and wasnt eating a whole lot. Then, I remembered the Silver Shield in the cabinet. So I decided to try it! You add it to your water and drink. By the way, you will not taste any silver, it is tasteless, in fact you dont even know its in your water! Well, I took it faithfully that day and I started to feel a lot better! Plus, I was able to relax and go off to sleep better. The next day I was feeling better. I was still coughing, but not as often, I decided to back to work the following day as I was past the constant coughing stage and no longer sick of my stomach! I did and my co-workers could not believe I had made a speedy recovery like that after a few more days! Some of them had returned to see doctors and taken all of their antibiotics only to get sick again. I never got sick again :) Silver Shield works! I believe everyone should have some in their medicine cabinet. Try it today! Its in out Top Sellers!

Nature Sunshine and Flower Remedies

I am really excited that one of the companies I often use now has Flower Remedies! Have you ever heard of Flower Remedies. For starters, there are frequently used in the UK for children who have attention deficient problems. But then again, in the UK, children are not diagnosed as often with that disorder and put on what is really a dangerous drug. Unfortunately, but true. A child has to go through strict testing for that to be determined and then if so, flower remedies are used rather than ritalin, prozak, etc.

Flower Remedies are safe holistic essences, which have absolutely no side effects. They are not even herbs(which I believe herbs so often get a bad rep in the mainstream news) Think about how many people in this country have died of drug prescription drug overdoses, but with herbs, it does not happen as often. I have seen people on all of these remedies and know that they work. But anyways, back to the Flowers, they are not harvested same way as herbs.

When the sun comes up on a bright morning and there is still dew, go to the flower you want to use. Some people recommend saying a prayer, but I do think it is nice to 'ask to use the flower'. I believe that all life can feel things, I really do. I used to watch my mother grow flowers and ironically she would talk about how she would often 'talk to her flowers' and when she gave them attention they bloomed, flourished and looked gorgeous. People around wondered how she did it and spoke of her 'green thumb'. I think it was more than a green thumb though. One time, she was not feeling too well in the early stages of some of her plant life and the poor flowers at that time did not make it, and had a very short life span. She remarked that the reason was that she never got to spend as much time with them while they were being prepped. At the time, I didnt pay any attention to such things as this, but nowadays, I do strongly believe that, so for that reason, I believe you should asks the flower before you cut some of its blooms

The first thing to do is get a bowl of pure sping water, as this is what you will be putting the blooms in. Fill the bowl and as the dew is still on the ground and the early morning sun is coming out, go out and greet the plant.  You should also make sure this will be a full sunny day as if it is overcast, it will not work. Then, when ready, put the bowl with spring water right on the side of the plant with the foliage hanging over the bowl. Look for the prettiest blooms too as that is what you need. Cut the blooms right over the water as the ideal situation is to have the blooms fall right inside the bowl of water. If you have touch some, its not really that big of a deal, as long as for most part, you let the blooms fall into place. Then sit the water right in the sun and you will let it sit in the sun for the next 3-4 hours. During this time period, the blooms are going to become energized with the sun within the spring water. This is how you make your essence. When finished, have some small amber glass bottles available with top droppers as you want to put the essence under your tongue, although you may put it in some water to drink throughout the day. Get some brandy or vodka as this will be your natural preservative for the flower essence. You can also use vegetable glycerin and it will taste better as well(Nature Sunshine uses this as their preservative & you just wanna use their remedies all day lol,) It is actually a good idea when giving to people you dont know as well for those who have issues with alcohol. Fill half the small amber bottle with brandy or glycerine and then top off with your new essence. Very easy

Flower Remedies are for emotional ills. Dr Edward Bach identified 38 remedies altogether for emotional well-being, not physical, although according to Dr Bach, when we have our emotional health and issues balanced out, we will be physically healthier. Dr Bach, was a medical practitioner in England who had first turned to homeopathy, but then later formulated the 38 Flower Remedies and completed case studies on people. I have used Flower Remedies and sincerely believe in their benefits. I would certainly turn to them to help my child rather than a dangerous drug like ritalin. I'm so happy now that Nature Sunshine has them! You know how to create them, grow some flowers and go with it! I will have some later blogs on the varied remedies and what all they are used for. For example, guese what Impatiens is used for? Did ya guese right? For those who are always in a hurry and never very patient. I want to start creating my own remedies, but in the meantime, thanks Nature Sunshine for having them :)
Check them out!
