NOT THE SAME OLD STUFF

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Last night I called India. I talked with the doctor who developed our products.

My first questions: “Why do our products stand out from all the others on the market?”

Answer: “Our formulas are over 4000 years old. They stand the test of time. We took them, tested them, and isolated what worked, used up-to-date scientific methods, animal studies, even human studies where possible, removed harmful elements, and tested them again for results.”

“They get quick results, promote anti-aging, can be taken safely with conventional medicines if needed and promote better health. You can use our products safely from womb to tomb.”

“Herbs use a holistic approach and work on the systems of your body. Conventional medicine is like a “laser beam” directed to work on one specific problem.”

It was a great conversation. Of course there was more to it than that, but this is the simplified version.

Our products work and are “not the same old stuff” you get everywhere else.

Go to Himaacala Health today to receive a free month’s supply.

ARE YOUR ARTERIES ALL CLOGGED UP

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Here I was flat on my back lying on a hospital cart looking up at the big screen in front of me. Doctors and nurses all around me were calling out orders. What was going on?

I was mostly awake. It was quite fascinating. On the screen was something that looked like a road map. “Give me two more atmospheres,” and then again “another atmosphere,” the doctor said. What is an “atmosphere?” It was weird!

The little streets on the road map were really the arteries of my heart. The doctors and nurses were trying to save my life. My artery was completely blocked. No blood was making it through. I was having a heart attack. I was dying.

Funny thing! I never thought I was going to die. It never crossed my mind in the least.

As you can tell, I made it or I would not be writing this blog.

While in the ICU, I asked the nurse, “What is an atmosphere?” She told me that this meant that the doctor wanted more dye so he could see the artery better.

Later, I was given an x-ray picture that showed all of my arteries and there was the one that was blocked. Question: How did this happen to me? I have always tried to be fit and healthy. How could this have possibly happened?

I have now learned about LDL, HDL, Triglycerides and a lot of other things I really didn’t want to know. I have tried a number of drugs that were supposed to reduce my total cholesterol. Statins had awful side effects and damaged some of my muscles. There was another one that was supposed to work on the stomach. It gave me severe stomach cramps. So I stopped that one. On and on it went.

About a year ago, I started using the herbal cholesterol support supplements from Himaacala Health. Today my HDL, (the good cholesterol) is up 29% and the best it has been for over 10 years. My Triglycerides are down 12%. My total cholesterol is not quite where it needs to be, but it is headed in the right direction.

Question: Are your arteries clogged up? I suggest you find out. A very simple, easy, inexpensive test can tell you.

I just read an article published by Reuters U.S. News organization entitled “One-fifth of U.S. teens have unhealthy cholesterol. It points out that one in five teens have unhealthy cholesterol levels. This is a major risk factor for heart disease in adults, it says.

The article says, “Bad cholesterol can help clog arteries while good cholesterol carries away the bad stuff.”

I HAD A VERY GOOD DAY TODAY

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

I am so excited today!

A few years ago I had a heart attack. You have to know I don’t like to go to doctors at best. When I was in church Sunday I had a big cramp on the left side of my chest and it really hurt. It wouldn’t stop cramping for several minutes. My daughter and wife knew for sure I was having another heart attack. I tried to tell them it was only a cramp.

The next day, after much pressure from my family I ended up going to the doctor.

At 7:30 a.m. this morning, there I was at my Cardiologists getting ready for tests. One of them was a stress test, which I hate most of all.

Let me give you a little background. Over the last year I have not been watching my weight, so gradually I have added about 20 pounds to my normally slim trim body which has ruined my handsome physique. My exercise has been down to … what should I say … zero.

So here is an out of shape, fat guy ready to get checked out to see if my heart is still working. My blood pressure was way up. Of course it was high. You know how it is when you go to the doctors to get checked out. It was
“‘white coat syndrome” for sure, they said. Finally on to the tread mill. Of course my blood pressure was too high for me to do the test. What was I thinking? Quick recommendation by the nurse: Injection instead of running to save me.

Poked, jabbed, photographed, tested and all that stuff, I got to wait and wait and wait for the doctor to give me the results.

First thing the doctor said, “Everything looks good. No problems. No damage. No problems with your heart.” My blood pressure immediately went down and I was relieved, to say the least.

I got a copy of my Lab Results and found that my HDL Cholesterol was the best it has been for over 10 years, and increase of about 29%. My Triglycerides had gone down between 12-13%. My LDL was up a little, which was attributed to my additional weight and lack of exercise.

How does an out of shape fat person do so well? The only thing we could attribute this improvement to was for the past year I have been taking Cholesterol Support from Himaacala.com.

To sum it all up: I am very happy today. Stress test over. Other tests over. And I am still alive.

It has been a very good day!

Enlarged Prostate May Cause Frequent Urination in Men

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

As men get older, they may experience an increase in the frequency of having to urinate.  There are many reasons this may occur including:

  •  diabetes
  •  diuretics
  • dysfunction of the bladder
  • cancer of the bladder

All of these are known to cause frequent urination but there is one very common cause that is overlooked by many men and that is an enlarge prostate.  Enlarged prostate affects many men, especially as they get older.  What is the cause of an enlarged prostate?

The prostate wraps around the urethra between the rectum and the pubic bone.  Early in the development of an enlarged prostate, the muscle of the bladder contracts more powerfully than usual and pressurizes urine through the urethra.  The bladder muscle resonds by gaining thickness and sensitivity.  This causes the need to urinate often.

You can help this problem naturally by using our all natural Prostate Support.  You can read more about this product and receive a free bottle at Himaacala.com.

Help for Bedwetters

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

And excerpt from Kidshealth.org on bedwetting says:

Bedwetting is an issue that millions of families face every night. It is extremely common among young kids but can last into the teen years.

Doctors don’t know for sure what causes bedwetting or why it stops. But it is often a natural part of development, and kids usually grow out of it. Most of the time bedwetting is not a sign of any deeper medical or emotional issues.

All the same, bedwetting can be very stressful for families. Kids can feel embarrassed and guilty about wetting the bed and anxious about spending the night at a friend’s house or at camp. Parents often feel helpless to stop it.

Bedwetting may last for a while, but providing emotional support and reassurance can help your child feel better until it stops.

How Common Is Bedwetting?

Enuresis, the medical name for bedwetting, is a common problem in kids, especially children under the age of 6 years. About 13% of 6-year-olds wet the bed, while about 5% of 10-year-olds do.

Bedwetting often runs in families: kids who wet the bed often have a relative who did, too. If both parents wet the bed when they were young, it’s very likely that their child will.

Coping With Bedwetting

Bedwetting usually goes away on its own. But until it does, it can be embarrassing and uncomfortable for your child. So it’s important to provide support and positive reinforcement during this process.

Reassure your child that bedwetting is a normal part of growing up and that it’s not going to last forever. It may comfort your child to hear about other family members who also struggled with it when they were young.

Herbs 101: Ashwaganda

Friday, January 8th, 2010

Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is often compared to Chinese ginseng in its memory enhancing, and anti-ageing benefits but without the stimulant action of Ginseng. This shrub has a characteristic odor and grows in the Indian subcontinent. The main active chemicals in this plant are steroidal lactones.

Memory Enhancement:
The active principles of Ashwagandha were able to reverse cognitive deficits as well as changes in nerve signaling chemicals after 2 weeks of treatment in a rat model of Alzheimer’s disease. In normal and amnesic mice, Ashwagandha treatment for 7 days showed improved memory consolidation and learning. In cultured cells, Ashwagandha extract promoted growth of dendrites and branching of nerve-like cells suggesting nerve cell-to-cell contact and communication.
