Access Bars

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

I love having the Access Bar for a pre-workout “snack” because of the fat burning technology the bar offers. They help me with my workouts too.
If I et one 15 – 20 minutes before a workout, my performance is improved and I am using a good source of energy as I am not exercising on an empty stomach.

Because they taste so good, I love cutting the Access bars into slivers when I’m having a sweet-tooth craving. A few slivers of the Access Bar always seems to do the trick and it help prevent binging on not-so-great snacks. These two flavors pictured are ling-time favorites!

Let’s Stop Poisoning Our Children!

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

Every year five to ten million household poisonings are reported. Many are fatal, and most of the victims are children.(2)
The real tragedy is, accidents like these can easily be avoided. But most parents aren’t aware that there are effective products
on the market that are much safer than nationally advertised brands and, in most cases, cost less.

If you are not already using non-toxic products In your home, we need to talk!

An Aspirin a day …

…does more than keep the doctor away.


We are not talking Tylenol; that’s Acetaminophen. Aspirin has shown effectiveness in diabetes, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular disease, cancer, the list goes on. In fact, research shows that it has multiple anti-cancer mechanisms. Aspirin has been shown to:

  • Reduce inflammation
  • Reduce blood clotting
  • Reduce lipolysis (the breakdown of fats that drive cancer progression)
  • Reduce the formation of new blood vessels to tumors (angiogenesis)
  • Act as an antioxidant
  • Counter the effects of estrogen
  • Counter the harmful effects of seed oils
  • Help to restore mitochondrial function (the brain of a cell)
  • Help to restore glucose metabolism

But before you run to the store to start taking aspirin, read on to get the full picture.

Aspirin has a lot of great benefits, the most common being for cardiovascular health. It helps to thin the blood and therefore prevent blood clots that can lead to stroke. Many individuals have been advised by their doctors to take a low dose aspirin (81 mg or baby aspirin) every day because of high homocysteine levels indicating a higher propensity for blood clotting. This “thick sticky blood” can also be a great environment for cancer cells, which is another reason some individuals take it..

Research warns against aspirin due to its harmful effects on the digestive system. However, other studies show that it may actually be protective. One found that low‐dose aspirin is associated with a 54% reduced risk of gastric cancer. Other research suggests that it may mitigate the effects of gluten sensitivity. But before you reach for the Bayer, know this:

Many aspirin brands contain heavy metals, something you don’t want in your body. You may want to try an aspirin powder such as Health Natura which is 99% pure—meaning it has no starches, binders, preservatives, etc. It’s a powder that you mix with water or even add to smoothies.

You need to know WHY you are taking a medication (or in this case, an over the counter option) and continue to monitor results, because you may not always need that aspirin.

What is affecting your skin?

Before I started my healthy journey, I was oblivious at the fact that everything added to the laundry wash and dry cycle is ABSORBED into our skin.
Thinking about that makes my skin crawl…especially after recently hearing about the cancer-causing toxins found in Aveeno and Neutrogena products.
My laundry soap, scent booster, stain remover, bleach alternative, fabric softener and dryer sheets from my online shopping club are all eco-friendly,
non-toxic and scented only with essential oils!
I will never judge anyone else’s choices, because I am far from perfect. but I will try to encourage you to join me in trying to do better. If I could encourage you to swap one item to a safer alternative I would start with your laundry line. Detergent, fabric softener, melaboost, and dryer sheets!

Always check the labels

Cellulose is actually mulched wood turned into a powder and yes, it’s in the Parmesan cheese.
Buy a block of Parmesan cheese and grate your own.

How are you doing?

In this economy it’s so scary with businesses shutting down or filing for bankruptcy.
How many people do you know that have been laid off?

I have a proven second stream of income that has a 96% monthly reorder rate and true residual income.
No hamster wheel of starting at zero at the beginning of every month. I would love to talk to anyone that
is open to learn something new!!

Melatonin

This hormone has been around a long time to help improve sleep. But research show that melatonin can have anti-cancer benefits too.
It’s been shown in several clinical studies to reduce side effect severity when taken along side chemotherapy and radiation. But adding melatonin to one’s daily regimen can help with survival rate and tumor regression.

How much melatonin should you take depends on your health and what your goals are.

To improve sleep, it’s generally suggested to take one to three mg of melatonin before bedtime. However, for those fighting cancer or who are in remission, human studies show that higher doses (20mg/night) can result in even higher survival rates by almost double.

It also can help minimize the negative effects of cancer treatments. 

  • Decrease the level of fatigue
  • Improve cognitive function (brain fog)
  • Protect agains lower platelet counts and neurotoxicity
  • Reduce symptoms of depression

Even if cancer is not your concern, we are exposed to so much artificial light (televisions, computers, phones, tablets, etc), that our melatonin levels can drop and our sleep cycles can be disrupted. 

Consider adding Melatonin to your supplements to help create a great night’s sleep!

HOW CAN WE LIVE OUR BEST LIVES?

Living our best lives is not just about making good nutrition and fitness choices that affect our health. It’s also about how we choose to live day to day. Audrey Hepburn offered three suggestions on how to live our best lives. Her timeless wisdom touches the soul and offers a guiding light to follow.

SEEK BEAUTY IN OTHERS — When we choose to see the beauty in people, it takes a lot more than judging at first glance. Take the time to uncover the goodness in others. Doing this can lead to wonderful relationships and personal growth.

GENTLE WORDS HAVE POWER  — Words possess extraordinary power. Words can uplift or wound, we must choose carefully. When we choose kindness in our speech, it can ignite a ripple effect of positivity in both our professional and personal spheres.

WALK WITH CONFIDENCE — Confidence transcends self-belief; it’s an acknowledgment that we’re never truly alone on our journey. When we realize that countless others have confronted similar challenges, we can emerge victorious.

A slight shift in our mindset can yield monumental results in our personal and professional life. Seek beauty, speak kindly, and stride with confidence—our pathway to success and fulfillment commences with these elegantly straightforward principles.

Wishing 2025 is your best year ever!

There’s nothing like waking up with GC in your cup!
