Purium's L.O.V.E. Super Meal

With my hectic lifestyle I often need to eat on the run. Not good. It is hard to find a meal you can grab and go with that has real nutrition without at least sacrificing flavor. I often look for ways to get my nutrients in a liquid form. Purium Health Products has several options.

You could says they carry a lot of 

Liquid Gold.

Purium's L.O.V.E. Super Meal is a truly yummy way to get everything your body craves in a quick meal. You can buy flavors* too, adding some fun to getting a healthy complete meal. No more tasteless, hard to digest protein drinks or bars. [Boy do I remember those; ick!] L.O.V.E. is gluten free, soy free, and dairy free. It contains 36 Certified Organic ingredients. And you would have to eat 7 bowls of whole grain cereal or pasta to equal the fiber you'll get from one serving of  L.O.V.E. 

Immune and energy boosting ingredients.

Take a peek>>>>

                                                           

I took this right from Purium website:

36 pure, natural, certified organic, vegan ingredients.
Purium has literally reinvented fast food.
L.O.V.E. Super Meal is faster, healthier and less expensive than any food source on the planet. Period.

L.O.V.E. Super Meal is a meal replacement that is 7 supplements in 1:

1. Weight Loss Formula
2. Protein Drink
3. Fiber Supplement                                                                             
4. Essential Fatty Acid Supplement
5. Super-Antioxidant Drink
6. Immune Support Supplement
7. Energy Drink

By now you can see that there are no fake ingredients in L.O.V.E. Super Meal. 

So much of what we eat is made in a chemist lab. Who could have ever imagine it would come to this, but it has and we need to be extraordinarily careful about what we are putting in (and on) our bodies.

All you need is L.O.V.E.

Live. Organic. Vegan. Energy.

*Here are the flavors you can choose from:

Gaining The Slight Edge Using Purium Products

I love the fact that I can peruse the internet to find the answers to questions and grow in my knowledge of ...whatever. Today I was looking for websites and blogs that had great information about coconut oil; its usages and benefits since I recently did a review on Puriums's Organic Tropic Coconut Extra Virgin Oil. Now I'd like to share a few links to other sites. (1) Food Matters and (2) Wellness Mama. These two sites have a plethora of tips, recipes, and facts about living healthfully.  


So why take you to there? They have an amazing wealth of information. My hope is to get you excited about living a holistic life. If you can learn to make even small changes you'll see real differences in how you feel and that will encourage you to take another step and so on. What do small changes look like? Evaluate your situation.

• Health (What are you experiencing? Digestion issues including a bloated gassy stomach? Are you over-weight? Do you feel sluggish? Do you care?)
• Lifestyle (Including who you live with. How busy are you, etc.)
• Do you have addictions that may block you from reaching your aspirations to live healthier and happier? (Smoking, Food, Drugs, Alcohol)

Any positive action is a step forward.

Look at your personal living patterns. Are you serious about living a holistic life? Take action. In The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson talks about the little things we do that change our course in life. I would liken this to a ship that gets just a few degrees off course. The result can be fatal. When we make small positive changes, however, we inevitably produce inspiring results.



What small change can you make today? Using any one the many Purium Products is a great way to change your diet*. I have been using Purium since the Spring of 2013. Recently, I had a conversation with my daughter. We talked about how my hip, knee, back, and energy level had improved. My Fibromyalgia episodes are fewer and less debilitating pain. Just saying it out loud brought me affirmative joy. I really do feel healthier. The reason it's working is that Purium is a pure organic product grown to produce the maximum nutrients in their most usable form by a company that stands behind its products.

*The definition of diet* is included here, because, so many of us think the word as only meaning that we cannot have what we want because our body isn't the way it should be (to fat) or because we have health issues (high blood pressure or allergies). You are on a diet no matter what you eat. I'd like to help you choose to eat to live and to be able to walk away from the mindset that diets are evil.

Purium Joint-Flex and Fibromyalgia Pain

Fibromyalgia will rock your world. It will change your perspectives and alter your life path. From the moment I knew something was wrong I searched for solutions and answers to questions I wasn't sure how to ask. It was in the Summer of 2001, I had been studying for my fitness certification and was struggling to prepare. Just 6 weeks before my certification test I was fortunate enough to have a close acquaintance literally spend 3 hours over the phone and in person go over material she had gathered. That Summer feels like a million year ago. I have come a long way from the days I struggled to walk and could barely stay awake.

I have used many products over the years. Finding Purium was a perfect solution for me. You can try $50 worth of product for free. Purium stands by their product with a 100% guarantee. You can order online and the products arrives quickly. It is important that it's organic and pure too. 
 

Joint-Flex, part of Purium's Anti-aging line, supports healthy joint function. Recently, I had an exceptionally busy schedule and didn't order when I needed to before I ran out. I thought I even cut back hoping I wouldn't run out. Wrong! I did and boy what a noticeable difference it made in my pain levels. When I resumed my dose I found within a day, seriously one day, that my pain level dropped. I combine the use of Joint-Flex with Apothe-Cherry to increase the medicinal benefits. My Purium website states about Joint-Flex:

• Can support body’s response to inflammation
• Can help enhance flexibility
• May stimulate the rebuilding of connective tissues
• Can inhibit the neural transfer of pain signals

The above statements have not been evaluated by the FDA and were not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

I would like to mention that I do not and will not take prescription medication for my fibromyalgia. You have to make the decision for yourself, (consult your doctor, etc). For me these are life giving pure and natural foods that have no ill side effects. I haven't magically changed and I can't run marathons but as a wife, mom, author, Freedom Fighter, and professional driver I am doing amazing. Would you love to take your health to the next level?

Purium Organic Tropic Oil Review

Extra-Virgin Coconut Oil
Organic, Pure, Raw, Non GMO,
Gluten Free, Soy Free, Vegan, Kosher

Years ago I tried to add coconut oil to my families diet. It was so strong smelling when I cooked with it. Too strong. The flavor didn't bother me, although it was different than I was use to, but most of the family rejected it. So...I gave up. When I joined Purium I decided to their Organic Tropic Oil a try. I am so glad I did. It's delicious!

Here are some of the benefits as listed on My Purium website:

• Supports healthy immune function (especially when used raw)
• Is a healthy alternative to butter and other oils
• Does not contain any cholesterol nor promote platelet stickiness in the blood.
• Stable under high heat, which means it is ideal oil for cooking
• May help improve nutrient absorption

And just think, Tropical Oil is the ideal healthy and safe oil for pan frying and baked goods. You can use it raw as a substitute for butter on your toast, hot cereal or pancakes. It makes an excellent skin moisturizer and can used to treat burns and cuts. 

One more thing, Purium is proud to announce that the Organic Tropic Oil is the first Purium product that has received this prestigious NON-GMO Project verification. Importantly, we believe that Purium is the FIRST and ONLY network marketing company that is able to use this seal! We are working toward another Non-GMO Project Verification; this time it will be for our Power Shake.

What is the Non-GMO Project? This information is taken from the Non-GMO Project website. 

The retailers who started the Non-GMO Project were motivated by a simple idea. They believed that consumers in North America should have access to clearly-labeled non-GMO food and products, now and in the future. That conviction continues to guide the Non-GMO Project, as North America’s only independent verification for products according to best practices for GMO avoidance.

While you delight your senses you can know that, once again, Purium is bringing you the best of the best. Why? Because they believe in being the best, providing the best, and they are willing to stand by their products.

Purium's Apothe-Cherry Review

Apothe-Cherry from Purium is my go to sleep aid. Stress, fibromyalgia, illnesses, etc can lead to sleepless nights. So, today I'm highlighting Purium’s Apothe-Cherry™ .

  Here is some information from my Purium website: Purium’s Apothe-Cherry™ is made from Sour/Tart Cherries, which are nature’s most nutritionally dense food. They contain a wide variety of antioxidants and phyto-chemicals, and each serving contains 7,000 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) units. We recommend combining this product with our 40x Aloe Vera Concentrate.

• Contains melatonin, which may help balance circadian rhythms for proper sleep
• May support healthy joint function
• Promotes healthy uric acid metabolism
• Is a rich source of anti-oxidants
• Can help prevent or even reverse premature aging   

 I found with regular use I am sleeping deeper and because it has no drug in it there is no negative side effects that an over-the-counter product will give you. At the end of a long day I like to fill a wine glass with 2 ounces of Apothe-Cherry and 6-8oz of water. I sip it like a glass of wine and relax with a book; then I head to bed. In the morning I wake up feeling genuinely refreshed.

Fibromyalgia affects people differently. I have studied and experimented with several different nutritional and herbal products, and even an over-the-counter sleep-aid. It is reasonably priced and made by company with integrity. Purium has everything I need. They carry organic wholefood nutrient dense products. 

I enjoy the ability to share these products with other people who are looking for a way to maintain and increase their level of health as well as a viable business opportunity. Feel free to contact me with questions or for a no obligation $50 gift certificate.

How I Avoid Over-the-Counter and Prescription Drugs

I avoid over-the-counter drugs and prescriptive medicines because I have never felt comfortable taking them. Though I have suffered through a bad car accident and through other emotionally traumatizing experiences I have taken prescribed medicines sparingly or refused them all together. 

After some really difficult things happened to me in the late 70's, I found I had an increase in symptoms that left me, well, basically sick. I started looking for answers including a visit to the doctor. By the time I made an appointment I had a good idea that I had a severe problem with yeast and hypoglycemia. The doctor dismissed anything I told him and said I needed to be on anti-depressants. I refused. So I headed to the health food store and looked at books. I found a book, read it, started the diet it recommended and my symptoms melted away. 




        versus....                


This experience and many that followed lead me to believe a few fundamental things about health:

• Health begins with eating and drinking healthy foods

    

                            

It is a fact, we are what we eat. We are affected by what we use on our skin as well. The soil and seeds. The water and fertilizers. Even the weather affects our foods. Lack of nutrients in the soil or lack of water; hurt our foods.  Pesticides and GMO's affect our food. Always look for safe and reliable food and skin care sources.

• Beware of 'degree thumping' doctors 

Many doctors know next to nothing about nutrition, don't believe in alternative medicines and practices, and feel you should believe what they say because they have a degree in medicine. Don't get my wrong there is a time and a place for doctors and there are many good doctors to be found. I have the best pediatrician I have ever had in my 31 years as a mom of nine. There have been many doctors in my families lives and a few times they have seen us through difficult and life threatening illnesses.

•  Educate yourself on any subject you need information on before you make decisions; especially addressing fears.

In other words, do the research. Read and study. Any decision you make should be researched by you and/or someone you trust. This is taking control of your health. You need to listen to your body, and believe me, it's talking to you.

• Herbs and wholefoods are life saving and giving....they are pretty much phenomenal

When pregnant with one my kids I was bit by a spider. At least it was the only explanation we could give to what happened to me. Coming back from getting the mail my foot was really hurting. On closer inspection I had 3 red marks. The first on top of my right foot, it was the biggest and swelling rapidly. The other two on my left foot. They were swelling but not as bad. Within an hour the toes on my right foot were almost completely swollen together and my ankle had disappeared because the swelling was up to my calf. 

I called my midwife and started a poultice. The pain was horrendous. We noticed an improvement in a few hours. Within days I was back to normal shoes and I never saw a doctor. (Disclaimer: Each of us have to decide to how to care for ourselves and our families; this was my choice.)

Finally, no research, no product, will ever change your health if you don't commit to the self-discipline required to make a real difference. I know it is easier said than done. Having real support is amazing. With Purium it is available. Education and even the ability to be on an encouragement calls and to receive text message while you are doing the 10-day Transformation, for instance. They don't stop there. A continuation program is available. If you need advice from someone there is free naturopathic advice.

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.
