Building Your Immune System and Fighting Viruses

Illnesses and your immunes are the soldiers on the battlefields of our bodies. To be on the winning side you must put your body on high alert. Think of your immune system as the minutemen and bacteria and viruses the enemy that seeks to destroy. 

Staying on alert can only happen if you understand some simple principles. Your mom probably mentioned these a few times (or more).

• Water 

• Rest and Balance

• Exposure (elements) 

• You are what Eat (or don't) ....food as fuel...nutrition

I was blessed to have had a mom who wasn't into canned and box. They did enter our home and I was exposed to Hamburger Helper and Spam. For the most part we ate fresh or frozen vegetables. My lunches always had milk, fresh fruit and vegetables, a sandwich with lettuce, and a cookie. When I wanted chips it was denied as being unnecessary, unhealthy, and not cost effective. We were limited on sodas to a few a week at home; not for school lunches. 

I have taken this a step further. The only sodas my kids see are a rare health food store bottle. Root Beer or more often Ginger ale with extra ginger for some stomach issues and menstrual cramps. This morning my youngest has whole grain penne with olive oil, fresh basil and tomatoes, broccoli with homemade ranch dip (made with mostly plain yogurt with live cultures), a whole grain fruit bar, and rice milk. I added a very sinful homemade thumbprint cookie made with real butter, no artificial anything. Perfect. No. But, I have found that they are happy and healthy....and I like to bake. 

Even though I try to buy local and fresh organic when I can, the reality is, our soil here in America is depleted. If there aren't enough things to worry about and contend with we now we have watch out for GMO's. We are exposed to so much; daily! The water we drink, did you know we need a half-ounce per pound of our weight, has to be constantly monitored for purity. Our schedules are overloaded (by our own design really) and even when we try to back off, something rears its ugly head to send us back to the hurry, hurry treadmill. Balance?! What's that and how do you get it? 

The product information listed below was taken from my Purium website. These products are just a part of my effort to live a holistic life. Strengthening my immunes is not an option. Fibromyalgia leaves many bedridden and with a large family and work I just couldn't let it win. I have used other products but I kept searching for a product that would "holistically" provide me with pure and safe nutrients at a reasonable, doable price. These are phenomenal.

A responsive immune system is the centerpiece of preventative health. Plant-powered nutrition can’t cure diseases, but it can help support the immune system so diseases never start in the first place or are dealt with quickly and efficiently. Stress can compromise even the healthiest person, so take the Super Immunity Booster Pack as your insurance policy against disease.

Direct Sales Health Products

Are you already using a green food health product, like Purium, and are looking to ramp up and sell it? Or are you looking for a product to increase your nutrition intake, something you can be passionate about and use a direct sales opportunity for yourself and others?

When looking for a holistic approach to nourishing your body and a way to live and share a company uses whole food extracts that will repair your body from the inside out. Life changing literally on a cellular level. Here are specific criterion to look for when considering a company:

• I have to need or want the product

Marketing something you need or want will make selling it easier. What's your passion? What health needs do you have? For instance, someone you know may be looking to lose weight, while you are looking for increased success when you run marathons by using whole foods and herbal supplements instead of risking the use of artificially stimulating your body with drugs. Maybe you are concerned, and rightfully so, that the foods eat don't really have the nutrients we need to thrive.

• It has to have a worthwhile purpose

Each of us has the ability to have a positive effect on the people we interact with every day. We can travel to other places to help in person, donate money or necessities to people in need or to causes where already formed organizations are working in an area you are passionate about; such as human trafficking.

I chose Purium because of my passion to encourage families and individuals to eat to live not to live to eat. Thanks to my mom I have a good understanding of the importance of nutrition and a good physical foundation. When I became pregnant with my first child I read everything I could get my hands on what to eat when you're pregnant, then when she was around 10 months old, my little one developed allergies and my quest for knowledge deepened. I found I truly love every aspect of food and nutrition. One of my passions was born. 

Our children deserve the best we can give them while their young bodies are forming. Women need good nutrition for our ever changing bodies, energy for working and running a home and raising their children. Men need strength and energy for their everyday hard working lives. As we age are needs change. Maybe anti-aging products is your passion, helping to ending obesity in America, or maybe you'd like to become part of the Million Moms Movement.

• It has to be a quality product(s)

No matter how much you like a product you'll need to make sure it is safe and consistent. The anti-alternative world uses quality control of herbs to needle (pun intended) those of us who pursue natural means of taking care of ourselves. Years ago I told a doctor that I had increased my calcium and mineral intake to relieve my leg cramps while I was pregnant with one my kids. He literally laughed at me. A year later a big study came out touting what my midwife had already taught me. I digress. The fact is though, when it comes to quality assurance they are right. 

Purium believes in only the best. The Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Certification Program is a way insure the company you are buying from uses standardized methods. It is crucial for safety and consistency in usage. Quality and control of that quality. Having a GMP certification was important. You will have more confidence when you know your product has integrity. 

As one of the world's largest certifiers, operating in the US, Canada, Latin America, and Japan, Quality Assurance International (QAI) is a for profit corporation. They are also a USDA-accredited certifying agency (ACA). They provide organic certification in conformity of the USDA's National Organic Program. Once certified you remain in good standing unless it is revoked, suspended, or surrendered. Purium's QAI certified manufacturing operation is Organic by Nature, Inc.

Trust in your chosen company is increased when you can show credentials, ingredients, and then results. The guarantee is a bonus.

• It has to have a good compensation plan

If you are even thinking about a direct sales network marketing business you must seriously at the compensation plan. Familiarize yourself with more than what it takes to get started. Learn what your monthly expectation will be. Do have to sell a certain amount every month? Do they have auto-ship? Is it mandatory? Will they be there for you (ie, training and support)?

My company of choice amazing me, I never have to pay for shipping (100+BV) and I receive my products quickly too. Purium has immense potential. 

It has to be able to go the distance.

A health foods company must have a vision.  For a company to go the distance you must be able to feel genuine results. I noticed a huge difference in how I felt when I missed taking Joint Flex and others because the potency of Purium's formulations. Fresh ingredients you can usually find only in the best juice bars … organic kamut grass, organic spirulina and organic barley green juice. Foods for living a holistic life.

A company should be established and growing. As stated on the Purium website, Purium is open in the U.S. and Canada and has sister divisions in Norway and all 27 countries of the European Union. We are a word of mouth company that is world wide with plenty of "Growability".

I love nutrition. Green foods are especially important in our diets. The fact is that the number one way to take care of your bodies health isn't a health care insurance plan. It is, however, a health plan. After all, a pound of prevention is worth an ounce of cure. Mom was right. Your quality of life is determined by the choices you make every day. Everything, what you eat, the quantity, the quality, exercise, rest and destressing time will effect you and the people around you. We must eat. We must rest. We must use our muscles. We must find balance or be unbalanced.

So, while Purium provides an opportunity for people to do something to help others make positive changes in their lives it also gives them the chance to become healthier from the inside out by feeding their bodies the quality nutrients they crave. None of this would mean as much if it weren't for compensation plan and the vision that Purium has for changing the world health; one person at a time.
