			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You’ve been told that glutathione increases energy on a cellular level. How does it do this? Since glutathione is not the actual fuel for the “engines” or “energy factories” of our cells, what part does it play in the creation of cellular energy? These are questions we would all like answers to, but not if they make us feel like we’re back in Chemistry 101! Hopefully, what you read below will provide a nontechnical  explanation for these questions.</p>
<p>The Tiger in Your Tank Is Called <strong>ATP</strong>. It’s obvious that all cells must produce energy to survive. We know that the “gasoline” or “electricity” that powers our cells is called <strong>ATP</strong> (adenosine triphosphate). If your car runs out of gas, it can sit for a while until you replenish the supply. Not so with our cellular fuel. Our cells simply cannot survive unless they have a continual, sufficient supply of “cellular gasoline” or <strong>ATP</strong>. So the process of creating fuel in each and every cell must go on constantly. A single cell may have a couple of hundred energy factories or cellular power plants called mitochondria or it may contain thousands of them. Your hard-working heart cells have been estimated to have 5,000 mitochondria each1! The complex process of turning nutrients into <strong>ATP</strong> in the mitochondria depends on many oxidation and reduction reactions.</p>
<p>Redox is the shorthand term for the chemical reaction where atoms are changed by either losing elections (oxidation) or gaining electrons (reduction). </p>
<p><strong>The Process</strong><br />
Understanding the exact process of <strong>ATP</strong> creation didn’t happen until 1937. Hans A. Krebs finally figured out a metabolic pathway in the cells that explained how energy is created. There were many scientists who played a key role in understanding how this pathway worked, but because Krebs had the insight that the pathway was a cycle, the process was named for him and is usually called the <strong>Krebs</strong> cycle. You will also read of it as the “citric acid cycle” or the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) or occasionally, the Szent- Györgyi-Krebs cycle (adding the name of the scientist who mapped out many of the molecules and the sequence of reactions of the Krebs cycle). Since we are not doing Chemistry 101, describing this process could be as simple as saying it’s a metabolic dance of electrons being transported and transferred, through complex processes of reduction and oxidation. Remember that transferring (or grabbing!) electrons is also what starts the cycle of free radical damage.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/2010/06/21/explanation-of-glutathione-in-energy-production/glutgraph/"  rel="attachment wp-att-370"><img src="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/glutGraph-300x104.jpg" alt="glutGraph" title="glutGraph" width="300" height="104" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-370" /></a></p>
<p><strong>The Role of <a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">Glutathione</a></strong><br />
Oxidation is like a flame, wonderful when harnessed, dangerous when out of control. When we are young, the oxidation necessary for energy production is highly efficient with only a small amount of oxygen not<br />
utilized. Even this minor oxygen loss (1-3%) unfortunately results in the production of free radicals. And this is where <strong><a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">glutathione</a></strong> comes in to neutralize those free radicals. A one-to-three percent oxygen loss causing free-radical production doesn’t sound too bad, does it? But say you are no longer 20 years of age and correspondingly, your cellular mitochondria are not as efficient as they once were. More and more free radicals are generated in the oxidative energy process and they are, in turn, damaging the mitochondria themselves. The powerful <strong><a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">antioxidant, glutathione</a></strong>, quenches a number of free radicals, including the highly dangerous hydroxyl radical by donating an electron. <strong><a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">Glutathione</a> itself does not become a free radical</strong> even though it has given up an electron.</p>
<p>No wonder it is called the <strong>Master Antioxidant</strong>!<br />
Now that it is quenched, the extremely harmful hydroxyl radical is halted from its real dirty work:  generating other free radicals like peroxynitrite and the radicals of oxidized fats (lipids). Glutathione has just halted a literal cascade of free radicals by quenching the hydroxyl free radical. But you need to know just what a favor glutathione has done for you in preventing peroxynitrite production. </p>
<p><strong>Peroxynitrite is truly pernicious!</strong><br />
Martin L. Pall, PhD, professor of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Science at Washington State University stated: “Peroxynitrite reacts with and inactivates several of the enzymes in mitochondria so that mitochondrial and energy metabolism dysfunction is one of the most important consequences of elevated<br />
peroxynitrite.”2</p>
<p>Translation: When the mitochondria have suffered enough free radical damage as to become dysfunctional,<br />
energy production is impaired. Your cells do not get the amount of energy they need to function properly. Your cells may function at a level below the optimum although you probably won’t feel it. There is yet one more free-radical mitochondrial consequence as a result of low glutathione levels that you “will” be aware of. Richard Van Konynenburg, PhD, wrote: “The resulting partial blockades in the Krebs cycles and the<br />
respiratory chains in the red, slow-twitch skeletal muscle cells decrease their rate of production of ATP. Since ATP is what powers muscle contractions, the lack of it produces physical fatigue. It becomes chronic because GSH [glutathione] remains depleted.”3 You might think of free radicals as a band of marauders circling an oil tanker, preparing to hijack the precious commodity that fuels cars and trains and pretty much the entire Western world. <a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">Glutathione</a> molecules could be considered a group of highly efficient bodyguards — handing out electrons and turning vicious marauders into mild-mannered bystanders.</p>
<p><strong>Glutathione Praise from Dr. Keller</strong><br />
As you understand this intricate energy creation process, perhaps you will appreciate more a statement by the creator of MaxGXL, Dr. Robert H. Keller. Dr. Keller said that <a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">glutathione</a> is “critical to cell functions such as the TCA (Kreb) cycle and then the respiratory chain that uses 4 molecules of ATP to generate 32 molecules of ATP.”</p>
<p><em>Is it vital for you to have those <a href="http://connieclark.maxgxl.com/max4u/pages/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:com.max.web.page.MaxGXLPage" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/connieclark.maxgxl.com');">glutathione</a> bodyguards on energy duty?</em> Van Konynenburg certainly thinks so as he wrote, “GSH [glutathione] plays very important roles in maintaining mitochondrial function and integrity.”4  Perhaps it’s enough to remember that <strong>glutathione</strong> is there to assure that the creation of cellular energy is not hampered by free radical damage. While this is not by any means the only role glutathione plays in keeping your body running smoothly, it is a vitally important role. Now you have one more reason to appreciate Dr. Keller’s marvelous, patented product!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/2009/08/23/glutathione-the-great-multi-tasker/side_glut/"  rel="attachment wp-att-126"><img src="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/side_glut.jpg" alt="side_glut" title="side_glut" width="162" height="90" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-126" /></a>Suppose you were told you weren`t getting enough cellular oxidation or <strong>toxin protection</strong>, despite consuming each and every high antioxidant food and the best antioxidant supplements available?  Do you wonder how that is possible, or would you simply ignore it?  Please read on. How it could be, as reported by many health experts, is that
<ul>
your glutathione levels are too low.</ul>
<p>This is a <strong>very common situation</strong> with all the oxidation stress our toxic environment provides, along with a little assistance from our very own personal stress.</p>
<p><strong>What makes Antioxidants Necessary?</strong></p>
<p>Oxidation occurs at the cellular level during the body`s efforts to create energy and fortify cells metabolizing oxygen. The oxygen molecules that aren&#8217;t fully absorbed <strong>become toxins</strong>, unstable atoms missing an electron, which begin robbing cells of electrons to balance and stabilize themselves. Then the atoms robbed of the electron become <strong>poisons</strong> and continue the oxidation process, stealing electrons as required from other sources.</p>
<p>A sequence of events then occurs. This changes the identity and function of those atoms as they combine in <strong>abnormal ways</strong>, ultimately causing cellular and DNA damage. And eventually,  countless medical concerns and disease will breed freely. It is the negative effects of oxygen, similar to the way metal becomes rusty with exposure to air. We must continue to breathe, so you&#8217;ll encounter some free radicals shed from just that.</p>
<p>Moreover, the air we breathe is loaded with toxins and pollutants, as well as in the majority of the foods we eat, and any pharmaceuticals that may have been taken. Every one of these create more free radicals  while stressing the body with poisonous matter. Add this to the immune system`s damage from psychological stress with our current lifestyle and the craziness around us. Well then, it truly is amazing that so many of us still remain ambulating and communicating!</p>
<p>But we need so much protection from all this in order to move and converse better and longer and stay away from hospitals meanwhile. So whatever can neutralize the free radical oxidation process while eradicating toxins is <strong>critical</strong>. Enter antioxidants, comprising the most overlooked yet <strong><a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">most critical one</a></strong> of them all: glutathione, the main element to <strong>maximum oxidation protection</strong> and detoxification while building a strong immune system.</p>
<p><strong>Several Glutathione Details</strong></p>
<p>Glutathione has been labeled as the master antioxidant. It is an intracellular antioxidant essential for greatest antioxidant activity from all other antioxidants, including vitamin C, vitamin E, CoQ10, and all the blueberries you can eat. It removes toxins from cells, and protects against radiation.</p>
<p>There is however a problem. Purchasing something that says it is glutathione is a <strong>waste</strong> of supplement popping money. The body`s digestive system is quite poor at taking glutathione into where it needs to go. <strong><a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">There is hope</a></strong>, there are other solutions to raise the body`s glutathione, which are disclosed later herein.</p>
<p>It is the body`s intracellular function to produce glutathione in the liver and body cells from three amino acids, cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycene. Sufficient amounts are needed to catalyze and retain all the antioxidant`s you consume for your protection. It even serves as protection to prevent antioxidants from becoming free radicals (poisons) themselves, regenerating and recycling them. As you get older, your body`s ability to produce glutathione slows down.</p>
<p>Many now consider reduced glutathione production as the <strong>real cause</strong> of rapid aging and ailments that are considered &#8220;normal&#8221; from aging, including Alzheimer`s, inflammatory conditions from allergy to arthritis, asthma, COPD, Parkinson`s Disease, and coronary and autoimmune diseases. DNA damage resulting from toxins frequently leads to cancer. This is a standard scheme that goes askew as we age. If one can enhance internal glutathione production, the energized immune system will create a strong basis of good health, regardless of age.</p>
<p>Glutathione in our bodies can go inactive when it becomes saturated from doing it`s work, but it tends to replenish itself. Under ideal environmental conditions, 10% of the glutathione remains inactive, or oxidized, while the other 90% is active, or reduced, and continues to stabilize cell molecules and other antioxidants, plus remove toxins. This is the function of normal metabolism`s waste removal of poisons by glutathione. But the battering of additional toxins from our environment is too much to maintain that 90/10 ratio.</p>
<p>As active glutathione drops below 90% and allows the inactive to grow beyond 10%, the fight for the best possible total wellness becomes a losing struggle. It becomes too complex to remove toxins naturally. As they build up, active glutathione lessens even more. Active or reduced glutathione is also known as GSH, while inactive or oxidized glutathione is known as GSSG. When GSH falls below 70%, one`s health begins serious declining. It`s a major time of trouble.</p>
<p><strong>How to Enhance GSH</strong></p>
<p>Since supplements labeled glutathione are <strong>virtually worthless</strong>because the digestive system won`t take it in, what distribution systems can enhance the body`s ability to create and maintain the proper level of GSH? Well, intravenous glutathione will have immediate results for extreme situations, but cannot contribute to the cycle of circulating GSH. Plus, it is extremely expensive. It`s like recharging a car battery with a broken alternator. The instant the battery empties, the car quits running.</p>
<p>For continual, permanent protection, it`s necessary to utilize precursors that energize the cells to create their own GSH glutathione, as required internally, via the liver and body cells. So it`s important to supply the body GSH precursors. Of the three amino acids that generate GSH (active glutathione) in the liver and cells, cysteine is considered the most critical link. It has been identified that cysteine, balanced properly with glutamic acid and glycene, stimulates GSH production. </p>
<p>S-Adenosylmethionine (SAM-e), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and supplements made from unadulterated, whey protein elevate cysteine levels. Whey protein products that specialize in boosting the liver`s GSH production have become the easiest and most common choice. Whey is a by product of cheese or yogurt processing. Unadulterated means the whey comes with no additives or preservatives. Additionally, the milk sources are non-hormone injected organic fed cows or goats. There are a small number of whey protein products that promote GSH production with cysteine. However, the glutathione levels are not significantly increased and are not recycled.</p>
<p>But finally, there is a <strong><a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">nutritional supplement </a></strong>that does provide the necessary precursors to the cells to produce their own GSH glutathione, internally, via all body cells. Because of the research and breakthrough discovery of glutathione&#8217;s importance to total wellness, Dr. Robert Keller, having spent many, many years perfecting a <strong><a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">glutathione accelerator</a></strong>, formulated and introduced MaxGXL, which
<ul>
allows the body to manufacture its very own cellular glutathione and improves your overall total wellness of your body.</ul>
<p>On average, the increased level of glutathione is <strong>200%</strong>. This one and only breakthrough total wellness product is science-based, with double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical studies and has a composition patent (typically reserved for only pharmaceutical products). You can&#8217;t get better than this and it is <strong>the only proven product</strong> that raises your glutathione levels significantly. You can learn more about this important, vital nutritional supplement at <a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">http://www.connielclark.com</a> and become focused on your very own <strong>total wellness</strong> regimen.</p>
<p>In addition to the supplementation you end up using, or instead of using a supplement, here are some foods that are useful toward the GSH, glutathione circulating process. It is important to consume organic foods as the toxins added to conventional foods minimize the GSH levels. Unfortunately, you need to eat so much of these foods that it is literally impossible to do so to significantly raise your levels of glutathione. But these foods certainly are beneficial to your total wellness.</p>
<p>All meats are high in cysteine, but unless you can go truly organic, the hormones and toxins will virtually neutralize GSH. Watermelon, walnuts, avocado, asparagus, broccoli, and tomato are good choices for glutathione enhancement, as are many dark green leafy vegetables. Ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, wheat germ and oat flakes fill out this list.</p>
<p>The investigation and finding of glutathione`s importance, and the process to manufacture it within the body for proper distribution is relatively recent. GSH glutathione`s importance as an essential antioxidant is indisputable. The health implications for just this one single agent, internally promoted by proper precursors, are thorough and all-encompassing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t posted lately on what glutathione means to our <strong>total wellness</strong> and recently I discovered something new that has happened to my health because of glutathione.  I have had a very weak, splitting fingernail all of my life (my sister, Pattie, also has this same health issue).  This specific fingernail has never grown past about a 1/16 of an inch.  It always split and had to be cut down, way down&#8230;so could never grow fairly long fingernails because of this one fingernail.</p>
<p>No longer is that true.  I discovered several weeks ago that my fingernail is strong with no splits evident at all.  I can grow it longer now and have much prettier, healthier nails.  It did take a while for this particular <strong>total wellness</strong> benefit to show up but after taking MaxGXL, a glutathione accelerator, for about 8 months, my fingernails are beautiful and strong.</p>
<p>Energy is the greatest <strong>total wellness</strong> benefit I&#8217;ve received from glutathione.  I used to take at least 3 naps a day in order to function.  I no longer take even one nap because my energy level is sustained throughout the entire day and I feel able to do all that I need to do on any given day.  This has never been the case for me before glutathione.</p>
<p>Even if I had never gained all this sustained energy, the <strong>total wellness science behind glutathione</strong> is worth the optimized health you have from having <strong>sustained high levels of glutathione</strong> in your body.  There is <strong>only one science-based product</strong>, proven with double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, clinical studies that raises our bodies glutathione levels to where they were when we were just young things in this crazy life of ours.  That product is MaxGXL and you can learn more about this product at my website, <a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">http://www.connielclark.com</a> and can order from this site, as well.  For <strong>total wellness</strong>, you can do no better than MaxGXL.</p>
<p>In case you&#8217;ve forgotten the information about glutathione and <strong>total wellness</strong>, let me refresh your memory on this amazing master antioxidant in our bodies&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Dr. Robert Keller MD, MS, FACP Creator of MAX GXL™</strong><br />
The Worlds Most Powerful Antioxidant is Not in a Berry, a Fruit or a Drink…It’s in Your Body!<br />
It’s called Glutathione or GSH and every cell in your body requires an adequate supply to function and to stay healthy. It’s your body’s super defender against illness, infection, toxins, and disease. GSH is critical to optimum brain function, and is also your body’s first line of defense against diseases of aging and the harmful affects of stress and overexertion.</p>
<p><strong>Glutathione: The Body’s Master Antioxidant</strong><br />
Glutathione (GSH) is a small protein produced naturally in our cells when certain required elements are present. It functions both as an antioxidant and an antitoxin, and is a major defense system against illness and aging. Our glutathione level actually indicates our state of health and can predict longevity. Although there are more than 60,000 published papers on the beneficial effects of glutathione replacement, it is still largely ignored by mainstream medicine. In the near future the importance of glutathione will be widely recognized because it has the ability to boost the immune system and fight off the damage of free radicals on the cells.</p>
<p><strong>The Power of Glutathione</strong><br />
Glutathione has been shown to slow down the aging process, detoxify and improve liver function, strengthen the immune system and reduce the chances of developing cancer. Glutathione also works to help improve mental functions, increase energy, improve concentration, permit increased exercise, and improve heart and lung function &#8211; just to name a few.  <strong><a href="http://www.connielclark.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connielclark.com');">Total Wellness</a></strong> is really what Glutathione is all about.</p>
<p><strong>Increasing Age and Other Factors Reduce the Body’s Production and Utilization of GSH.</strong><br />
Research has shown that individuals who have low levels of glutathione are susceptible to chronic illness.<br />
Research shows that GSH levels decline by 8% to 12% per decade, beginning at the age of 20. Levels of<br />
glutathione are further reduced by continual stress upon the immune system such as illness, infection, and<br />
environmental toxins. As we now know, a lowered immune system can bring about illness and disease. This is a ferocious cycle. While you need glutathione for a productive immune system, a weakened immune system hampers the production of glutathione.</p>
<p><strong>Supplements Containing Glutathione Alone Will Not Increase the Body’s GSH Levels.</strong><br />
It is pointless to purchase supplements that merely contain glutathione, because the digestive system breaks down ingested glutathione and it will not be absorbed into your system. On the other hand, MaxGXL™ provides the proper nutrients needed to promote the body’s own ability to manufacture and absorb glutathione. MaxGXL™ also aids in liver support by destroying environmental poisons helping the liver to function as the main production site and storehouse for glutathione.</p>
<p><strong>MaxGXL™</strong><br />
MaxGXL’s™ Patented Formula Dramatically Increases Intercellular GSH. MaxGXL™ provides the proper nutrients needed to promote the body’s own ability to manufacture and absorb glutathione. MaxGXL™ also aids in liver support by destroying environmental toxins, thus helping the liver to function as the main production site and storehouse for glutathione.</p>
<p><strong>MaxGXL™ Stimulates the Body’s Production.</strong><br />
The data indicate MaxGXL‘s™ effectiveness not only in populations who are immune-suppressed, but also in those who are stressed, aging, lacking sleep, or with any prolonged illness. In these situations, MaxGXL™ stimulates the body’s production of glutathione to compensate for the body’s accelerated use of it, strengthening your natural defenses, decreasing your risk of illness and guarding against the effects of the body’s aging process.</p>
<p><strong>Total Wellness</strong> is what Glutathione is all about!  And I am thrilled to share this &#8220;total wellness&#8221; concept with everyone that I can.  Because it takes many years to build up toxins in our bodies and reap the results of these toxins, you need to realize that it will take many months for total wellness to become the norm for our bodies.  You need to given glutathione a chance to work in the crevices of our bodies (specifically, the cells of our bodies) in order to reap the total wellness benefits of glutathione.</p>
<p>Remember, I said earlier, that it took about 8 months before I saw my fingernails becoming super healthy for the first time ever.  And, it took a few months for me to realize that my energy levels had become sustainably high throughout my day.  I will keep on keepin&#8217; on and hope that you will too.</p>
<p>Warmly,<br />

Healthy Systems (<a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/optforsuccess" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">www.healthysystems.com/optforsuccess</a>) is the home of the best tasting Organic Aloe Vera in the industry.  It is said that a company is only as a good as it&#8217;s product line.  At Healthy Systems we believe this.  However, we also believe that the people have a lot to say about a company.</p>
<p>What are people saying about Healthy Systems US patented Organic Aloe Vera product line?</p>
<p>A sincere, unsolicited recommendation is the ultimate voice for our product line, our service, our company and about our thousands of dedicated affiliates and customers.</p>
<p>The simple truth is the products, (especially our Organic Aloe Vera line) makes our affiliates and customers very healthy.  That makes them happy &#8230;and that&#8217;s what makes them keep coming back.</p>
<p>And to you &#8230;whether you found us by searching for information about arthritis, burns, yeast infections or you were referred to us by one of our many affiliates, we would like to welcome you to our home, <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/optforsuccess" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">www.healthysystems.com/optforsuccess</a>.  Look around, take your time and explore our site.</p>
<p>If you have a specific question or concern &#8230;just send us an email and we promise to get back to you within 24 hours.</p>
<p>We also promise you the &#8220;best tasting Aloe Vera&#8221; in the market place.</p>
<p>That said &#8230;here is a little basic information about our unique, organic, and US patented Aloe Vera.</p>
<p>Of the 240 species, four are recognized as having nutritional value, with barbadensis miller leading the group.   Barbadensis is the type of Aloe Vera used in most commercial products available today.</p>
<p>The gel contains over 75 nutrients and 200 active compounds, including 20 minerals, 18 amino acids and 12 vitamins.  A high quality product, which uses only the nutritious inner gel &#8230;not the outer rind &#8230;the rind of the leaf, is one of the most nutritious drinks and best skincare products, available.</p>
<p>Aloe Vera is proven to increase new cell growth three fold and promotes rapid wound healing after skin resurfacing treatments using chemical and mechanical procedures.  Aloe Vera is effective in treating a variety of dermatological conditions and diseases of the skin.  Aloe Vera penetrates deeply without the aid of &#8220;heat.&#8221;  Aloe Vera relieves pain, swelling and tightness associated with strains, sprains and burses while reducing inflammation in muscles, tendons (tendonitis) and joints (bursitis).  Aloe Vera relieves itching and skin irritations resulting from many causes.  It also promotes healing of chemical burns, minor sunburns, razor burns, floor burns and mat burns.</p>
<p>Taken internally, Aloe Vera acts as an aid in digestive, inflammation problems and combats yeast infections.</p>
<p>My very favorite flavor of Aloe Vera is Mango-Papaya&#8230;yummy!!!<br />

And, of course, if you add a <a href="http://www.connieclark.maxgxl.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.maxgxl.com');">glutathione accelerator </a>to your health regimen, you will be optimizing your health even more. Glutathione is widely recognized as the most powerful of all antioxidants, and one scientist has referred to it as “the great multi-tasker” in a 2006 article. MaxGXL® is <strong>not</strong> a glutathione supplement, but rather provides the body with the precursors it needs to manufacture and absorb glutathione.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/2010/01/25/beat-the-january-blues/ps_wellness_012009_top/"  rel="attachment wp-att-192"><img src="http://www.behealthysolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/ps_wellness_012009_top-300x165.jpg" alt="ps_wellness_012009_top" title="ps_wellness_012009_top" width="300" height="165" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-192" /></a></p>
<p>Many psychologists worldwide theorize that January is the most <a href="http://www.melaleuca.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.melaleuca.com');">depressing</a> month of the year. Some even say it can lead to Seasonal Affective Disorder, also known as SAD. So how can you celebrate the Holidays in usual fashion without feeling a little let down when it’s all over? </p>
<p>Hey, December was a blast! Driving life down a happy highway of gift-giving and present-unwrapping, tickling scents and tasty treats, friends and family gathered together for a special time that comes but once a year. </p>
<p>In the heap and hype of the holidays, you ignore your thinning wallet’s starvation and splurge on your loved ones–or yourself–in a manner likely unequalled by any other time of the year, and all during the heat of an economic downturn. Your soul’s warming cheer makes the cold weather seem like perfect holiday weather. And to top off your New Year’s celebrations, amid your Holiday Season high, you set exciting resolutions that’ll improve your life ten-fold once they’re achieved.</p>
<p>Then your holiday season high ends abruptly when you wake up New Year’s Day.</p>
<p>All the traits that created your holiday cheer suddenly turn on you to create a feeling of January dejection.</p>
<p>While it may be too late to prevent over-eating, over-spending, and over-expecting, it’s never too late to <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">repair the damage</a>. Here are a few suggestions to help you dig yourself out of January <a href="http://www.melaleuca.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.melaleuca.com');">depression</a> or steer clear of it altogether.</p>
<p><strong>Be Grateful </strong><br />
One of the best ways to cheer up is to count your blessings. Make a written list of the things you have and how much better life is with them. Though deceptively simple, the act of writing out the things you’re grateful for activates a different part of the brain than just thinking about them. Plus, your list may come in handy later down the road on other blue days.</p>
<p><strong>Get Outside</strong><br />
It may be cold, but going for a walk and breathing in fresh air can refresh your mind and body. Besides, <a href="http://www.melaleuca.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.melaleuca.com');">indoor air quality is at its worst during the Winter</a>. </p>
<p><strong>Exercise</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">Depression</a>, especially in seasonal situations, has been linked to chemical imbalances inside the brain. Exercise is scientifically linked to your brain’s neurotransmitters, which help balance the brain’s chemicals. Though exercise has not been proven to completely cure depression, mental health experts agree that going for a daily jog or hitting the weights can help you work out your worries or subside your struggles.2</p>
<p><strong>Talk </strong><br />
It always helps to talk–to a friend, to a family member, to a loved one. Anybody who will listen will help just by listening. And it never hurts to listen to their struggles, too. </p>
<p><strong>Do What Makes You Happy </strong><br />
It’s a pretty simple concept. If you’re not happy, do something that will make you happy. But don’t indulge in destructive activities that may make you feel good now, but may hurt later down the road like overeating, alcoholism, over-spending, or using drugs. Instead, try to engage in activites that’ll make you happy in short-term and long-term respects. Uplifting activities like playing, reading, exercising, chatting, serving, watching movies, and the like might be the right way to go. </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.melaleuca.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.melaleuca.com');">Try Our All-Natural Luminex</a></strong><br />
The Wellness Company offers an all natural, patented supplement that can give you a more positive outlook on life. <a href="http://www.melaleuca.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.melaleuca.com');">Luminex®</a> helps regulate the key neurotransmitters in your brain linked to depression. It’s not an antidepressant prescription, but a vitamin supplement that includes St. John’s Wort, Griffonia, and vitamin b12, all proven to aid your brain’s neurotransmitters.</p>
<p><strong>Consider the Circumstances</strong><br />
Depression in January is often a phase. You made it through last January. Rediscover the tools that helped you through last year’s phase and put them to work.</p>
<p><strong>Seek Help </strong><br />
If you can’t seem to climb out of the hole with any of these suggestions, seek help. There are literally thousands of support outlets online. Just search for “depression support” and you’ll find a myriad of help. There’s a lot of help out there because you’re not alone. Depression is a common struggle, especially in January. And if you’re still struggling, visit a doctor or counselor. Medication may be the solution.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s to a very special and enlightening year!  I hope that you are looking forward to 2010 as much as I am.  Last year was a tough year for me, as were the previous 3 years.  I lost my mother-in-law, my mother, my father and my 15 year old dog, Pepper.  These last few years were my first time for facing death and trying to make peace with this phenomena of life&#8230;not very easy for me.</p>
<p>It has been very hard on my health, taking care of my mother-in-law, mother and father for the past 8 years or so.  Stress does that to us many times over our lives.  Eventually, we must <strong>take a hard look at ourselves and decide to focus again on what will best serve us for a good and healthy life</strong>.</p>
<p>That is the point where I am at this time and my optimism has kicked in again.  I&#8217;m grateful for that and I&#8217;m also focusing on my spiritual growth, as well.  I&#8217;ve decided to work with an <strong>energy healer and am looking forward to experiencing this opportunity for growth and better health</strong>.  I will try to keep you updated on my progress and how this energy healing works.</p>
<p>In the meantime, I want to share again one of the most important <strong>&#8220;health breakthroughs&#8221;</strong> I&#8217;ve ever seen in my 40 plus years of researching and studying the health industry.  If you google &#8220;<a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">glutathione</a>&#8220;, you will find out how intensely important it is to your body and your health.</p>
<p>However, glutathione cannot be introduced to the body just by taking a pill, tablet, liquid or capsule supplement.  It is destroyed in the stomach acid almost immediately.  Finally, a doctor of renown, Dr. Keller, developed and formulated (with a composition patent, reserved for pharmaceuticals only) a glutathione accelerator, <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">MaxGXL</a>, which introduces the precursors needed by our bodies to manufacture our own glutathione.</p>
<p>Scientists call it the <strong>&#8220;Master Antioxidant&#8221;</strong>.  Glutathione has never been able to be introduced into the body and recycle itself prior to this product.  Doctors, researchers, and scientists have been looking for a way for a very long time to get glutathione levels in the body raised so that the body functions properly.  Glutathione has been used intraveneously in ER for a long time for life-threatening health problems.  But, of course, it is terribly expensive and you have to have it done over and over again because it doesn&#8217;t allow the body to recycle it and manufacture its own glutathione.  </p>
<p>Glutathione is natural to the body; we are born with the ability to manufacture our own glutathione.  But as we age, have illnesses/disease, take in toxins over the years from chemicals and pollution, our body&#8217;s ability to manufacture its own glutathione declines rapidly.  This <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">health product, <strong>MaxGXL</strong></a>, is the first scientifically-based with placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical and crossover studies to give the body what it needs to produce/manufacture its own glutathione.</p>
<p>I am including some links for you to check out, if interested, to learn more about how this all works.  If you would give me your address, I will send you more information.  Plus, you can Google glutathione and see more about all the studies that have been done.</p>
<p>Please feel free to call me anytime with questions.  I would also be able to connect you with some doctors that you could talk to about this product, as well.  There is a very unique and special vitamin/mineral supplement that supports the <strong>MaxGXL</strong> with additional support for manufacturing glutathione in the body; it is called <strong>Max-n-Fuze</strong> and has a <strong>nanotechnology delivery </strong>system.</p>
<p>My sister is taking MaxGXL, as I am and also my husband and youngest son.  I have some wonderful friends and business partners who would be willing to share their personal testimony about this product and how it has helped them.  I will also try to get a hold of some testimonies pertaining to your health issue and be more pertinent to your needs if you wish to learn more.</p>
<p>To learn about this new discovery that has been awarded a “Composition Patent” which is usually only given to Prescription Drugs, and to learn about this AMAZING product called <strong>MAX GXL</strong>&#8230;. </p>
<p>First go to <a href="http://www.stevenkscott.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.stevenkscott.com');">http://www.stevenkscott.com</a> and watch the 5 minute interview with LARRY KING LIVE to know who Mr. Scott is…..</p>
<p>Then go to <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">http://www.connieclark.max4u.com</a> and click on a 14 minute information video with Mr. Scott talking about <strong>MaxGXL</strong> and World Famous Dr. Robert Keller ( a Triple Board Certified MD in Oncology, Hematology, and Immunology.  Then click on Products, then MaxGXL for a wealth of information.  Then click on Testimonials.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');"><strong>Aloe Vera</strong></a>, the Miracle Plant &#8230;Aloe Vera is one of the most versatile plants in the world &#8230;even with all the notable factors of other healing plants. The Aloe Vera plant is not exclusive in it&#8217;s nature for healing powers &#8230;there are many other plants that are used for healing purposes, as well, like: Noni, Eucalyptus, Yucca, Evening primrose, Madagascar periwinkle, Grape seed, Grape skin and many others.</p>
<p>Aloe Vera rises to the top of the list when it comes to a very complete chemistry composition.  <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">Aloe Vera</a> contains 21 key vitamins and minerals and it also possesses all 22 amino acids plus ligin, saponins, a long list of anthraguinones and an effective amount of complex enzymes.</p>
<p>This unique composition of nutrients enjoys the presence of its active component&#8230; called polysaccharides, which trigger Aloe&#8217;s extensive enzymatic activity. Polysaccharides are plant sugars that play an important part of it&#8217;s complex activity.</p>
<p>One of the most important health factors is that Aloe Vera has no toxicology levels. When given to animals in large doses, there have been absolutely no amounts of toxicity &#8230;leaving no animal either harmed, ill, or dying.</p>
<p>Aloe Vera finds where it is needed and goes to work building your body&#8217;s own immune system. This process is notable when working with the malfunction of various body systems &#8230;which happens when the immune system malfunctions. Aloe Vera helps the communication of the systems to get back in balance &#8230;the process of phagocytosis.</p>
<p>Simply said &#8230;history has proven that <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">Aloe Vera</a> has a synergy factor second to none. And with all of the&#8230; on going science &#8230;Aloe Vera still remains a mystery. That&#8217;s why we call it the &#8220;Miracle Plant.&#8221; Now, isn&#8217;t Aloe Vera something worth adding to your diet? </p>
<p>Just by adding two to four ounces of Organic Aloe Vera Juice to you&#8217;re diet everyday&#8230;it will benefit the immune system and synergize the healing process. </p>
<p>But remember, know your supplier!!  The best Aloe Vera that I&#8217;ve found if through Healthy Systems:<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">Healthy Systems Nutritionals</a></strong><br />
&#8220;100 % Organic Aloe Vera Juice&#8221;  Guaranteed<br />
&#8220;Best Tasting Aloe Vera Juice&#8221;<br />
with four unique flavors:<br />
1) Mango-Papaya (my favorite)<br />
Cran-Grape<br />
Strawberry-Kiwi<br />
Natural</p>
<p><strong>Certified Organic </strong><br />
Here is some basic information about their unique, organic, and US patented Aloe Vera.  </p>
<p>There are over 240 species of Aloe Vera, growing mainly in the dry regions of Africa, Asia, Europe and America.  Although Aloe Vera is a member of the Lily family, it is very cactus-like in appearance.  </p>
<p>Of the 240 species, four are recognized as having nutritional value, with barbadensis miller leading the group.  Barbadensis is the type of Aloe Vera used in most commercial products available today.  </p>
<p>The gel contains over 75 nutrients and 200 active compounds, including 20 minerals, 18 amino acids and 12 vitamins.  A high quality product, which uses only the nutritious inner gel …not the outer rind …the rind of the leaf, is one of the most nutritious drinks and best skincare products, available. </p>
<p>Aloe Vera is proven to increase new cell growth three fold and promotes rapid wound healing after skin resurfacing treatments using chemical and mechanical procedures. </p>
<p>Aloe Vera is effective in treating a variety of dermatological conditions and diseases of the skin.  Aloe Vera penetrates deeply without the aid of &#8220;heat.&#8221; </p>
<p>Aloe Vera relieves pain, swelling and tightness associated with strains, sprains and burses while reducing inflammation in muscles, tendons (tendonitis) and joints (bursitis).  </p>
<p>Aloe Vera relieves itching and skin irritations resulting from many causes.  It also promotes healing of chemical burns, minor sunburns, razor burns, floor burns and mat burns.  </p>
<p>Taken internally, Aloe Vera acts as an aid in digestion, inflammation problems and combats yeast infections.</p>
<p>You really can&#8217;t go wrong with this great Aloe Vera and it is affordable by most people.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>PARKINSON’S</strong> </p>
<p>Jean, Improved Cellular Function-Neurologic</p>
<p>I am a 52 year old woman with Parkinson’s.  I was diagnosed in 2002, at the age of 47.  My neurologist is Ali H. Rajput, OC, SOM, MBBS, FRCPC, of Royal University Hospital, Saskatoon, Canada.  I was last seen by Dr. Rajput in December of 2006, when it was determined I could no longer work (I was a bakery manager at the time).  This is a part of his letter to my family doctor.  “Jean was examined 3 hours and 30 minutes after the last dose of Sinemet.  There was a 2+ resting tremor in the left upper limb and 1+ resting tremor in all other limbs.  There is 2+ postural tremor in the right upper limb and 1+ in the left upper limb.  Her pronation/supernation is at 2+ on the left side and 1+ on the right side, and heel tapping is 3+ on the left and 1+ on the right.  There is 1+ rigidity.  Her posture is stable; she is therefore at Stage 2 disability.”</p>
<p>I first started taking the <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">glutathione supplement</a> in late May 2007. I started with three capsules in the morning and three in the afternoon. I felt nauseated, weak, developed a headache, and broke out in hives. So I then started taking only 1 capsule twice daily for three days. Then I went to 1 and 2 for 3 days. I still did not feel really well. Then I went to 2 and 2. By day 10, I started to feel really good. I actually slept for 4 hours straight, something that had not happened in the last 2 years. By day 12, I was feeling great!  My medication did not “wear off” in one to one-and-a half hours like it usually did, but lasted 3 hours before wearing off!  My pain level went from about an 8 to a 2.  For the first time since about January of 2007, I did not have to use a cane to walk!  What a wonderful feeling that was! There was no more Parkinson’s shuffle, and the cramping in my left arm and leg was minimal. And instead of sleeping half the afternoon away, I only need about a 15-minute nap. I started taking 3 and 3 capsules on about day 30.  The hives have gone away and no more headaches.  So, to sum up the first 3 months:</p>
<p>1)  My energy level increased (from about a 2 to a 6)<br />
2)  I sleep for about three hours straight and for a total of about 6 hours per night, whereas before, I was lucky to get a total of 4 hours per night.<br />
3)  My medications last 3 to 3-and-a-half hours instead of 1 to 1-and-a-half hours, resulting in:<br />
a)  Less tremors<br />
b)  Less muscle cramping<br />
c)  Less muscle rigidity<br />
d)  Do not lose my voice very often<br />
e)  Do not have as much trouble swallowing<br />
f)  Pain in joints is minimal (as opposed to all day)<br />
g)  Do not need cane to walk<br />
h)  Less depression<br />
i)  My thinking is a lot clearer, not so foggy in the morning<br />
j)  Panic attacks are less<br />
k)  I feel more confident in such things as my driving, going out alone, etc.<br />
l)  Overall, more “on” time than “off” time</p>
<p>In September, I felt the <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">glutathione supplement </a>was not working as well, so I started taking 3 in the morning, 3 just after lunch, and 3 at around 4 or 5 p.m.  This seems to be working well.<br />
_______________________________________________________<br />
I am amazed the more I read about <a href="http://www.connieclark.max4u.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.connieclark.max4u.com');">MaxGXL</a> (glutathione accelerator) and how it is changing people&#8217;s lives.  This is the most phenomenal health breakthrough I have seen in my 35 plus years of research and study in the alternative health arena.</p>
<p>Since I have been taking MaxGXL, I have gained so much energy that I no longer need 3 or 4 naps a day, like I did before taking MaxGXL.  My energy stays constant all day long now without any downtime and I am thrilled.  I have chronic depression and take meds for that&#8230;.have been taking meds for almost 20 years.  I&#8217;ve noticed, though, that my mood levels have risen in the most positive way since taking MaxGXL.  Maybe I will be able to go off my meds one of these days.</p>
<p>Warmly,<br />
Connie Clark<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Aloe Plant</p>
<p>Do you, your family or friends suffer from<br />
	<strong>Acid Reflux or Allergies?</strong></p>
<p>Then let me ask you this &#8230;do you suffer from such things as auto-immune disorder, blood sugar imbalance, Crohns Disease, digestive problems, chronic fatigue syndrome, diverticulitis, diverticulosis, Epstein Barr, hiatal hernia, irritable bowel syndrome, spastic colon, ulcers and ulcerative colitis, just to name a few?  It&#8217;s time you take responsibility for your own health.  You can begin to enhance your immune system with <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">Healthy Systems Aloe Pure 5000 drink</a>.</p>
<p><strong>About the Plant</strong></p>
<p>The Aloe Vera Plant is an herb resembling the cactus in appearance, but it is actually a perennial succulent belonging to the lily family.  It&#8217;s botanical name is Aloe barbadensis.  The word Aloe Vera, Vera is the Latin word which stands for true.  It was named in ancient times because this species of Aloe was thought to have the best medicinal properties.</p>
<p><strong>Treatment for Inflammation!</strong></p>
<p>Aloe Gel has been used to treat inflammation for more than 2000 years.  The gel is the most ingenious mixture of antibiotic, astringent, coagulating agents, while also being a natural pain and scar inhibitor and a growth stimular, stimulating new cell growth threefold.  <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">Used as a drink internally</a>, Aloe Vera will aid digestion and reduce the effects of arthritis, stomach ulcers, diabetes and a variety of other serious conditions.</p>
<p>During the past hundred years, significant scientific understanding of the science of Aloe Vera has evolved.  Researchers throughout the world have revealed more and more of the biological mechanisms for the activity of Aloe Vera, and new clinical indications for it&#8217;s use in the <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">treatment for human disease and regulating metabolism</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Help Support Your Healthy Immune System!</strong></p>
<p>Aloe Vera for overall health, helps support your own <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">healthy immune system</a>, as well as many other natural body functions with an average daily consumption of two to eight ounces.  By all accounts, including several of our own, two to four ounces of <em>100% stabilized Aloe Vera</em>, taken twice daily, are able to offer a maximum of relief to arthritis suffers.  Usually it takes two to three weeks for this to come to fruition, but the positive effects are consistent and apparently wide spread.  </p>
<p>Often users report a decrease in stiffness and soreness, especially in early morning, as well as an increase in flexibility and strength in their joints.  Interestingly, when one stops drinking the Aloe Vera, it takes about three weeks for the benefits of the Aloe Vera to disappear.</p>
<p>Testing the use of whole leaf Aloe compared to the use of individual molecules from the plant has shown that the whole leaf Aloe Vera is up to six times more effective than the individual Aloe Vera components alone.</p>
<p><strong>Misbranded, Mislabeled, or Misformulated?</strong></p>
<p>This highlights the importance of a couple of things.  First, a major problem:  There are a good many commercial Aloe Vera Drinks on the market that are either <strong>mislabeled, misbranded, or misformulated</strong>.  Some contain an excessive amount of unregulated laxative contaminants bitter to the taste, and are then diluted with water to make them more palatable.  Though the product may be labeled as containing 99% Aloe Vera, analysis often reveals contents of 65% to 85% water.  This is not only misleading, but in direct violation of FDA regulation.</p>
<p>So, &#8220;caveat emptor&#8221; (let the buyer beware), is certainly a criteria which applies here.  The important issue is to know your supplier.  Find a <a href="http://www.healthysystems.com/?fqaflt=optforsuccess&#038;" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.healthysystems.com');">respectable company with an impeccable reputation and a loyal customer following</a>.  Continued usage of a product is a good indication of a satisfied customer.</p>
<p>I personally love the Mango Papaya flavor; it is absolutely delicious!</p>
<p>Warmly,<br />
