circulatory and digestive systems. CHLOROPHYLL is the green pigment in
plants that harnesses the sun's energy in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll
is to plants what blood is to humans. Interestingly, the chlorophyll
molecule is chemically similar to human blood, EXCEPT, it's central atom
is magnesium, whereas that of human blood is iron. HOWEVER...when
chlorophyll is consumed and assimilated by humans, it fortifies and
oxygenates our blood and assists the body in building our IRON supply in
the blood. REMEMBER...chlorophyll is NOT iron, therefore it is
difficult to get too much chlorophyll, but you can get too much iron.
Iron supplements are often synthetic, causing a build-up and often
causing constipation.
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARE LOW IN IRON?
People may have different symptoms...but I will share my experience.
I have battled it at times...as YES it often is a reaction in
menstrual or
Menopause process. First indication is a general weakness in the
nerves and muscles feeling as if I have no strength, a tingling in the
fingers, and a slight depression and feeling of wanting to weep.
A single test you can do yourself, which always proves true for women
and men who have used it, (thanks to my aunt's wisdom) is : Go to a
mirror, pull down your lower eye-lid and look at the inner color of the
eye-lid. If it is pale (often the same color as your skin) you are low
in iron. It should be a healthy red.
Iron deficiency is most often caused by insufficient intake...However,
it can result from intestinal bleeding, excessive menstrual bleeding,
poor digestion, long term illness, ulcers, prolonged use of antacids,
excessive coffee or black tea consumption, deficiency of Vitamins B6 or
B12. Use Sunrider's VITASPRAY to help hemoglobin production. And last
but not least...Dr. Jensen in his book "Nature Has A Remedy" says "Cast
out fear. Stop using the motor force of the brain, such as that used in
leadership, driving in traffic, working with a high-pressure boss,
antagonism, resistive feelings, lecturing, gossiping and heavy
responsibilities. Get exercise. Iron attracts oxygen. Send the
anemic to the mountains, where the air is alive and pure and where
nature develops the will faculties." INTERESTING, huh!!
There are many liquid chlorophyll products on the market. Some are good,
some not as good. Dr. Chen of Sunrider, began researching Evergreen
with the understanding that the human body can only use chlorophyll in
its natural oil soluble state. However, all liquid chlorophyll
supplements, in order to remain stable, become water soluble during
processing and the body can't get as much from them. Thus the key word
is ASSIMILABLE.
Dr. Chen said drinking Evergreen would be like giving the body a blood
transfusion.
EVERGREEN comes in a ½ oz vial of liquid...10 vials to a box . (See
catalog)
Mix 1 vial of Evergreen into at least 8 oz or more of water or liquid.
You may add it to Calli or Fortune Delight.
Lorene H. in Illinois reports that they have brought down
grandchildren's fevers quickly, by opening a vial, inserting a straw and
letting the child sip it right out of the vial.
It is wonderful for digestive disturbances and bowels or bleeding in the
colon. It sweetens the breath, digestive system and bowels, and
lubricates the illeocecal valve, the valve that sometimes sticks in your
lower right abdomen where the small intestine empties into the large
intestine (colon), and causes discomfort and back-up...and if you drink
chlorophyll regularly, you probably won't need underarm deodorant.
Helps with kidney and bladder function to eliminate water retention in
the body. Chlorophyll is great for nausea or morning sickness in
expectant mothers.
Good for colic in babies. Research in World War II revealed applying
chlorophyll
to wounds helped keep the wounds clean and speed
healing. Helps keep infection down in the body.
Other iron food include: blackstrap molasses, dulse, kelp, almonds,
beets.
Another SUNRIDER food that is a good source of iron is DANDELION.
But none as QUICKLY effective as SUNRIDER's refreshing slightly mint
flavored EVERGREEN.
