THREE MYTHS ABOUT SOY

Myth #1: Soy Causes Cancer. Because soy isaflavones have a similar chemical structure to human estrogen, people battling hormone-related cancers were encouraged to avoid soy. But over 2000 peer reviewed studies have confirmed that soy can actually reduce the side effects of cancer and reduce the likelihood of it returning.

Myth #2: Soy Inhibits Thyroid Function. In the past, research suggested soy consumption could have a negative effect on thyroid function. However, in those studies, what was more commonly identified was the deficiency in iodine levels combined with the soy intake.
In summary, more iodine (and not less soy) is what is needed to maintain thyroid function.

Myth #3: Soy Does Not Help With Heart Health. In 2017, the FDA reversed their position on soy and heart health, thereby declaring that soy did not help with heart health. In fact, an analysis published in the Journal of the American Heart Association concluded that soy is heart-healthy and that it lowers LDL “bad” cholesterol that can increase the risk for heart disease.

Being Frugal

Who else here is frugal?

I sure am! I cut open bottles to get every last drop.

This lotion took me a year to use up because I bought two—one for upstairs and one for downstairs. It’s great for eczema and rosacea, but I just love that it keeps my hands soft even after washing, and it kills germs with just one application.

Clean savings!

I don’t know about you but my frugal self will always try to save money wherever I can—especially with this crazy inflation.

Last year, I happily purchases some household goods from my favorite online wellness store. The package arrived two days later. My favorite product wa part of the order it comes in concentrated form. This small bottle concentrate costs $6.99, but when mixed as directed, makes six spray bottles of full-strength cleaner. This makes it so economical— at $1.16 per spray bottle. That’s less than what you’d pay at the Dollar Tree.

It’s time for me to reorder this all-purpose cleaner and I still don’t have to go to the store for it and I know it will be here in two or three days.

I love these kind of savings!

This is worth sharing

For twelve years I was selling products that I loved and loved seeing others feeling the same. It was party plan days (100 years ago) and those social times themselves were fun!

Then there was a day that selling to meet quotas became a pressure for me–and starting over at zero income at the beginning of the month was pressure to me. When I started home care for my parents, the work at home behind those successful years was too much pressure for me. So I walked away.

After a a few years, I found a line of safer for you, less expensive, better-performing products that I loved and got really excited when I learned I did not have to sell them to make money. That fit my lifestyle!! (anything involving just talking fits my lifestyle.)

I discovered that this online Wellness company shared its revenue with those who referred shoppers to the Shopping Club instead of using paid advertising. That was the reason they could use natural, better working ingredients and sell their products for such reasonable prices. No paid advertising saves billions! For twenty years, I have gotten a check every single month from my referrals. Why does it work? People love the products and 96% of the customers I refer order the next month.

Would you really enjoy a check you could depend on every month that did not require selling products? It’s an income stream that doesn’t interfere with your main business/priorities – it fits in between very nicely.
People are needing solutions these days.

There’s nothing better

than a great cup of organic black coffee early in the morning.

Starting the day off right!

Success isn’t easy

Success is not something that you have to go out and find. It’s something that you have to work for and you have all the tools necessary within yourself to enable you to succeed. So start using the tools that you have been gifted. Will it always be easy, no. Will it be difficult at times, yes. Will it be worth it, you bet it will! Remember keep going, never quit.

Our bodies need magnesium

I know mine does. I had a doctor once tell me that many asthmatics were low in magnesium and it seemed to be a factor in severity of asthma attacks. Once I heard that, I figured I’d tart taking magnesium. After all what could happen? My asthma could get better? For me that would be a win. So I started with some supplements and they helped.

But then I came across Mela-Out and it was a powdered magnesium to mix into your water. I had to try it.I found d out drinking one glass of Mela-Out Magnesium helped me to relax and breathe easier. I also became better at managing everyday stress. So, in my case, my doctor was right!

Benefits of Magnesium:

Magnesium helps you sleep
Magnesium calms your mind
Magnesium reduces muscle cramps
Magnesium relieves headaches
Magnesium strengthens bones
Magnesium lowers blood pressure

Magnesium is involved in over 600 enzymatic reactions in the body and if you aren’t supplementing, you’re probably not getting enough.

You are important enough to take care of you!

Frankincense oil has a rich historical significance

In ancient Egypt, Frankincense was used in religious ceremonies, embalming practices, and as a perfume. The Greeks and Romans also highly valued Frankincense, using it in their religious rituals and as a key ingredient in cosmetics and perfumes. Additionally, Frankincense played a prominent role in traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda, where it was believed to promote overall well-being and balance the body’s energy. These cultural uses highlight the enduring reverence for Frankincense oil throughout history and its integral role in natural healing – and also why it’s so highly coveted today.

Here are some uses:

1. Arthritis & Pain Reliever

Frankincense oil contains potent anti-inflammatory compounds, such as the terpene boswellic acid, which can help reduce inflammation in the body. It has been traditionally used to alleviate symptoms of conditions like arthritis, joint pain, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Scientific studies have been conducted that show that frankincense led to reduced cartilage loss, less joint inflammation and relieved symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

2. Skin Health & Anti-Aging

Frankincense oil can help reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and is widely regarding amongst anti-aging circles for its ability to diminish wrinkles. Additionally, it has antiseptic qualities that can support healthy skin and may be used to address skin conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and dryness. Frankincense oil is also a powerful astringent, meaning it helps protect skin cells. It can be used to help reduce acne blemishes, mask the appearance of large pores, prevent wrinkles, and it even helps lift and tighten skin to naturally slow signs of aging.

3. Respiratory Support

Inhalation of frankincense oil vapor or using it in a diffuser can provide respiratory benefits. Frankincense oil has expectorant properties, which means it can help loosen and expel mucus and phlegm from the respiratory tract. This can ease congestion, relieve coughs, and promote clearer breathing. Its antimicrobial properties also help combat infections caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi.

4. Stress And Anxiety Relief

The calming and grounding properties of frankincense oil make it an effective natural remedy for reducing stress and anxiety. Its aroma promotes relaxation, deep breathing, and a sense of tranquility, making it a popular choice for aromatherapy and meditation practices. One study identified that frankincense oil showed to reduce stress and anxiety-related behavior in rats, showing promise of its effectiveness on humans.

5. Sleep Aid

Frankincense oil’s calming effects extend to improving sleep quality. It can help soothe the mind, promote relaxation, and create an environment conducive to restful sleep. Diffusing frankincense oil in the bedroom or applying it topically before bedtime may aid in achieving a more peaceful night’s sleep. Many people who battle insomnia have found Frankincense to be a useful tool to sleep longer and harder through the night.
