Hi Terry
I really thought you were about 42…lol.
I searched for ways of branding myself on Sunday not knowing what primary company you was involved in and hitting that return button has kinda killed 3 birds with one stone.
I watched a J Budd video and it was linked to you…lol
My health is what I have to get in key and in UK Mannatech is not a name everyone knows. The one that helps you lose weight with herbshake is one we all know.
Looking on ways to better my diabetes is what I want.
Is core greens part of Mannatech products?
Phytochemicals is not a buzz word over here yet. We are still getting a grips with glycemic index…lol

That’s right Beverly. I actually have a friend in Iowa who empties septic tanks for a living.

And he says he can still read Centrum’s label. Think about that.

One A Day has about a 7% absorption rate.

Unless vitamins and minerals a predigested plants and put into a supplement none of them are much good. Plant sourced vitamins and mineral have 100% absorption because your body basically digest them like they are a salad.

If you are interested in learning more…let me know.

Be Well,

Terry,
Phytochemicals are so good for your Endrocrine system.Its a shame we can’t get the nutrients from our foods anymore. The bigger problem are all the people that still believe you can.Those same people think buying a bottle of 500 vitamins for $10 is a DEAL! I tell them a DEAL for the septic system.
I know I am preaching to the choir because you seem to agree with my way of thinking.
Thanks for the great article.
Beverly

HI Kellie,

Right on!

As a marathon runner I’m always looking for ways to fuel my body more effectively. I discovered for myself that life is a balance and so is my diet. Intelligent supplementation has been key for slowing my aging process down. At 52, many people think I’m in my 40s and even my 30s.

We all need to remember…garbage in–garbage out. Good stuff in–good stuff out.

Be Well,

Terry

Hi Terry, Great post. I think more people actually know what they need to do but it is like they just do not want to hear it. Eating right and exercising takes discipline and it just seems like so many people are not willing to make the changes necessary to be healthier. On the flip side, when you do make the switch to a healthier lifestyle, it is not always easy to find the “good stuff”. Sometimes it can be a real challenge. We all need to keep posting information like this in an effort to see more change.

Hi Steve, congrats man for taking responsibility for your health. This is something that is easy to do and easy not to do. Hope you are exercising and drinking lots of filtered water too!

Be Well,

Great article!! I was diagnosed with diabetes a few years ago and decided I was going to control my blood sugar with medications. I exercise, eat a well balance diabetic diet and take a special mixture of nutrient supplements. One of the supplements is a product called Core Greens, a phytonutrient and chlorophyll product. I have taken my A1c from a 11.7 to a 4.7. Your article helps people to understand the need for better products. We are not getting the nutrients we need even when we are are eating healthy.

Hey Eleni, it is a problem in many developed countries thanks to the marketing hype of the good old USA.

We need to be an example for others and help those who want to be helped.

Thanks for your insight Eleni!

Be Well,

Terry

Right on Terry! This is a chronic problem we are having in here in our country! It’s such a shame. Most people don’t know this and even when we do (i.e. you and me) they make it so difficult for us to actually try and get the good wholesome fuel we want to put in our bodies! ughh! so frustrating…but knowing is half the battle!

Thanks for spreading the word!

…and don’t forget Scott, many people are seen by multiple doctors and in many cases no one looks at the body as a whole to see what’s wrong.

My dad is currently dealing with prostrate cancer and the team of doctors have not been working as a team which can lead to lots of problems.

The health care system in America is not about health care it is about sick care.

Unfortunately, while we pay more for medical needs (drugs and procedures) the World Health Organization ranks the USA at #77 which is horrible.

Prevention is the key to protecting your family from many of these problems.

I believe it four corner stones…
1) Exercise
2) Drinking lots of quality water
3) Eating 5-7 superfoods per day (minimum)
4) Intelligent Supplementation

Be Well My Friends!
