A Trip To The Health Food Store

The goodies we found at our local health food store!



                      









This past weekend the hubby and I visited a local health food store.  We went there to pick up some fresh juice and produce but came back home with what we hope will make a significant difference in our health.  As you may know, I am looking to lower my blood pressure naturally and for my husband, he is looking for more energy.

I picked up some information on Diatomaceous Earth (food grade).  DE is a natural source of silica which is necessary for calcium absorption.  It is also known to regulate bowel movement, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, help stabilize blood-sugar levels, increases energy, nourishes skin, hair and nails, calms nerves, improves sleep, helps with weight loss and joint issues, cleanses digestive tract of parasites and detoxifies heavy metal while not interfering with  medications.   DE can be used for numerous things while still safe for human and animal consumption.

A couple of employees at the store said that they are currently taking DE and are very happy with the results.  I started to wonder why DE and it's benefits are not well known if it's suppose to be so good.  I found out that, like so many other things I'm learning about, it can not be patented for profit so mainstream companies have kept quiet about it.

After quite a bit of research, I have decided to try it for about a month to see if reap any of the benefits.       I will keep you all posted as the month goes on.  If you are interested in DE, I will provide a link below that will give you a lot more information about it.

My husband spoke to one of the personnel that I spoke to about the DE.  He was looking for something to give him energy during his long travel for work.  He currently is taking an energy aid but wants something that is more natural and healthy.  The lady that was helping us swore by Bee Pollen!  Yes, bee pollen.  Of course it wouldn't be wise to try this if you have a bee allergen.  It looks like very tiny pellets and it needs to be kept refrigerated.  Apparently bee pollen is the most complete whole super food available to humans and contains over 185 nutritive substances.  It is extremely high in protein, contains a host of amino acids, and contains most every vitamin.  Bee pollen also contains 5,000 enzymes an co enzymes.  It is documented that bee pollen supports healthy red blood cells, healthy skin, give you max energy, sexual stamina, mental capacity, supports thymus gland, positive mood, and longevity.  Here is a link that will give you more information if you are interested:  www.mercola.com

YOU SHOULD  ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE TRYING ANY OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED.

  1. I've heard a long time ago that Bee Pollen was good for energy, I just forgot all about it. I'll be picking some up. Can't wait to hear your update with the DE!
