Side<br />effects from prescriptions outweighed any relief and standard<br />treatment just made it more comfortable to live with, but did<br />not get rid of it. The treatments also reduced quality of life,<br />as it caused weight gain and dulls sensation. I was totally<br />skeptical when my Watkins Associate told me to try Petro-Carbo<br />Salve. I used it on one bad area, just to test it, and I was<br />amazed at how fast my skin returned to normal. Areas that had<br />plagued me for years began clearing in days.

This information is for<br />educational purposes only and does not constitute claims made<br />for any product or a diagnosis for any ailment.<br />_______________<br /><br />Cause...<br />Many respiratory conditions such as colds and flu are caused by<br />viruses that attach themselves to the lining of the nose or<br />throat and then spread through the upper respiratory system. In<br />response, the immune system floods the area with infection-<br />fighting white blood cells. The symptoms of a cold or the flu<br />aren't produced by the viruses, but are actually the result of<br />the body trying to stave off the infection. They are more<br />common in winter, when indoor heating reduces the humidity in<br />the air; this lack of moist air dries out the nasal passages<br />and creates the perfect environment for viruses to reproduce.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Rezist Plus<br />Why...<br />Contains ImmuneEnhancer™, found to be twice as effective as<br />echinacea in boosting the immune system. Also contains<br />elderberry juice concentrate, along with astragalus known as<br />powerful immune boosters.<br /><br />Helpful Hint...<br />Elderberry juice has been found in several studies to have a<br />specific antiviral effect against the influenza virus.

Menthol contains natural purifying,<br />antimicrobial properties and causes a cool sensation in the<br />nose.<br /><br />*-Testimonials—*<br />These are personal testimonials. Individual results may vary.<br />Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.<br /><br />"I love Watkins Rezist Plus because I have allergy and sinus<br />problems and since taking Rezist Plus I haven't been suffering<br />with either of these, nor have I had a cold or any other upper<br />respiratory problems. It has truly enhanced my life.

I put Watkins Menthol Camphor Ointment on his chest,<br />and immediately his breathing became easier."<br />—Nina Law, Indiana<br /><br />"I use Watkins Menthol Camphor Ointment to clear up headaches<br />and sinus problems by rubbing on temples, forehead and the back<br />of my neck at the onset of a headache.

Researchers<br />suggest that aloe vera accelerates healing and reduces pain<br />associated with canker sores and blisters on the lips and mouth<br />and could be a very inexpensive alternative remedy. Author<br />Richard L.Wynn discusses a study done on a patient with lichen<br />planus, a disease affecting the skin and oral mucus membranes.<br />The patient drank 2 ounces of aloe vera juice daily and<br />topically applied aloe vera to the lips. The oral lesions<br />cleared up in four weeks and complete success was achieved. Dr.<br />Wynn cited the study as showing that oral health problems can<br />be treated with aloe vera. "Aloe Vera can be taken both as the<br />aloe vera juice and aloe vera gel. These are the two modes of<br />delivery recognized by the FDA," said Dr.Wynn.<br /><br />Watkins Aloe Vera Juice is 99.7% pure, cold-processed and<br />stabilized, and Watkins Aloe Vera Gel Capsules contain<br />concentrate equal to one teaspoon of pure gel. The recommended<br />use is 2 to 6 ounces of juice or one gel capsule per day. For<br />the greatest benefits, drink at least 2 ounces of Watkins Aloe<br />Vera Juice daily and when symptoms appear, place a clean,<br />sterile pin through the end of the gel capsule or cut open a<br />gel capsule with clean, sterile scissors or a knife, and<br />squeeze the aloe onto the sore to speed healing.<br /><br />Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit...

This information is for<br />educational purposes only and does not constitute claims made<br />for any product or a diagnosis for any ailment.<br />_______________<br /><br />Cause...<br />Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread muscle pain and<br />fatigue. The cause is unknown, but thought by some to be due to<br />low levels of serotonin which may produce muscle pain. Others<br />suggest it may be caused by extremely high levels of substance<br />P, believed to transmit pain messages from the body to the<br />brain.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Linimax™<br />Why<br />Contains glucosamine, boswellia, curcumin and whole grape<br />extract(a source of grapeseed extract) and ginger. Many<br />fibromyalgia sufferers have found Linimax to be very helpful in<br />relieving pain and have been able to resume normal daily<br />functions as a result. Boswellia and curcumin help to reduce<br />the pain associated with inflammation. Glucosamine protects<br />from further damage and helps to repair damage. Ginger provides<br />an analgesic effect.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Mood Plus(Balance Plus)<br />Why...<br />Contains St. John's Wort which helps to raise serotonin levels,<br />which, in turn, helps to improve pain tolerance and improve<br />mood and emotions. This should not be taken along with anti-<br />depressants. Talk to your physician if you are on anti-<br />depressants. The doctor may prescribe a lower dose of<br />antidepressants while starting Mood Plus(Balance Plus) and<br />keep lowering the dose until you can just take Mood Plus. Also<br />contains rhodiola rosea root which helps to increase energy in<br />those who are exhausted and fatigued. Helps to improve sleep.<br />If having trouble sleeping, take two tablets 30 to 60 minutes<br />before bedtime.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins E+CoQ10<br />Why...<br />CoQ10 helps to relieve the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome,<br />which often accompanies fibromyalgia. Vitamin E, selenium and<br />hawthorn, found in Watkins E+CoQ10 help to improve circulation<br />and protect from further damage.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Superfood Multiple(Super Multi) and<br />Female Formula<br />Why...<br />Both contain magnesium and vitamin C which are important for<br />people with fibromyalgia. Many people with fibromyalgia are<br />deficient in magnesium. Magnesium is important for energy and<br />muscle relaxation. Vitamin C with bioflavonoids help to protect<br />muscle cells from damage, which is what leads to pain and other<br />symptoms. Also increases the immune system.<br /><br />Antioxidant formula: The antioxidant vitamins C, E, beta<br />carotene and selenium help fight the damage that leads to<br />inflammation. Watkins Superfood Multiple, Female Formula and E+<br />CoQ10 contain optimum levels of these antioxidants.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa),<br />Rezist Plus and Aloe Vera Juice<br />Why...<br />Candida(yeast) infection is common among fibromyalgia<br />sufferers. Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa) and Rezist Plus<br />contain pre and probiotics which help to rid the body of "bad"<br />bacteria and replace it with "good' bacteria. The "good"<br />bacteria helps to keep the "bad" bacteria out of the body. Use<br />Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa) first to cleanse the body,<br />get rid of toxins and allow the good bacteria to overtake the<br />bad. Then use Rezist Plus on a daily basis to maintain a high<br />level of good bacteria in the body and to help keep harmful<br />toxins and bad bacteria out. Aloe Vera Juice promotes digestion<br />and normal bowel activity.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Fruit/Veggie Complex(Watkins Harvest)<br />Why...<br />Contains fruit enzymes, vitamin C and mixed carotenoids which<br />protect the body from damage that can lead to pain.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Balanced Ginseng<br />Why...<br />Useful for combating stress and fatigue which often accompanies<br />fibromyalgia.<br /><br />What May Help: Watkins Liniment and Analgesic Balm<br />Why...<br />Contain capsicum(red pepper) that produces a warming effect on<br />the skin. Liniment provides relief from the discomfort of minor<br />muscle pain, soreness, stiffness and backache. Analgesic Balm<br />provides quick, temporary relief from minor arthritic and<br />rheumatic aches.<br /><br />*-Testimonials—*<br />These are personal testimonials. Individual results may vary.<br />Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.<br /><br />"I have fibromyalgia, and since using Watkins Linimax™, it has<br />helped me function almost normally again. It has reduced my<br />muscle pain, fatigue and the flair ups don't come as often. I<br />don't plan on ever living without Linimax™."<br />—Rebecca Metcalf, Michigan<br /><br />"My daughter and I have both had great results from using<br />Watkins Linimax™: My rheumatologist stopped the NSAIDs, as the<br />results from using Linimax™ were much better and my daughter<br />was told by a new neurologist that she had the beginning of<br />Fibromyalgia and to take "Linimax™." This doctor had no idea I<br />was a Watkins Associate, but I guess news travels fast when<br />something really works."<br />—Charlene Forde, Minnesota<br /><br />"I've had fibromyalgia for several years and lived with<br />constant pain and had not been able to have a good night's<br />sleep because of the pain. Since taking Watkins Linimax™, I am<br />finally able to sleep and I don't hurt nearly as much. With the<br />help of Linimax, I am also able to hold down a full time job,<br />which many fibromyalgia sufferers are unable to do because of<br />the pain. I've introduced Linimax to several others and they<br />are all just as satisfied as I am with Watkins Linimax™."<br />—Joyce Ludwig, Minnesota<br /><br />"Having suffered from fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome<br />for over a decade, I have spent thousands of dollars looking<br />for answers, but did not find any relief until I began taking<br />Watkins Dietary Supplements. My daily supplement regimen<br />includes Watkins Linimax™ for the pain, Rezist Plus for my<br />immune system, Aloe Vera Juice for digestion, Garlic Oil<br />Softgels and E+CoQ10 for my heart and Superfood Multiple<br />(Super Multi) and Fruit/Veggie Complex(Watkins Harvest) to<br />maintain overall health. Before I started taking Watkins<br />Dietary Supplements, I could hardly get through the day. Now,<br />although I still have many difficult days, I am able to<br />tolerate the pain and can function better than I ever have<br />since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue.<br />Watkins Dietary Supplements are truly a lifesaver for me!"<br />—Cheryl Young, British Columbia<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit...

This information is for<br />educational purposes only and does not constitute claims made<br />for any product or a diagnosis for any ailment.<br />_______________<br /><br />Acne<br /><br />Cause...<br />Acne occurs when the sebaceous glands of the skin secrete too<br />much sebum.

In addition, a<br />2003 study published in the Alternative Medicine Review found<br />that dietary supplements consisting of vitamins, minerals,<br />phytonutrients and other essential nutrients were as effective<br />as medication in reducing symptoms of ADD and ADHD.<br /><br />*-Testimonials—*<br />These are personal testimonials. Individual results may vary.<br />Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.<br /><br />Derron Lemke's Amazing Story<br />Derron, the son of Sue Skomsky, was experiencing severe<br />behavioral problems that seriously impacted his performance at<br />school and life at home. He was diagnosed with ADD(Attention<br />Deficit Disorder) and given a prescription for Ritalin, which<br />he took for eight years. In search of an alternative, the<br />family traveled hundreds of miles to consult with a doctor of<br />research specializing in children with ADD. The specialist<br />placed Derron on a program of dietary modification and<br />intensive vitamin supplementation, believing that proper<br />nutrition could correct the chemical imbalances in the boy’s<br />brain. The program worked well, well enough that Derron was<br />allowed to stop taking the Ritalin. But in order to get all of<br />the nutrients prescribed by the specialist, Derron had to take<br />upwards of ten pills every morning; "not a very pleasant way to<br />start the day," according to Sue.<br /><br />When Sue noticed that Watkins Superfood Multiple was similar to<br />the nutrition profile of the vitamins Derron was taking, she<br />faxed the ingredient statements to their specialist, who "was<br />amazed at the formulations," said Sue, "and gave instant<br />approval. She got totally excited!" Since Derron started taking<br />Watkins Superfood Multiple, his whole outlook has changed. His<br />grades in school have been excellent and he has not had a<br />single episode. Although every case is different and needs to<br />be evaluated by a physician, Derron's physician, Dr. Brian<br />Baxter, agrees that "Derron has done very well. The combination<br />of the diet and the vitamins have allowed him to stop taking<br />Ritalin. It's certainly a very holistic approach and an<br />alternative to prescription drugs."<br />—Sue Skomsky, New York<br /><br />"My daughter had been struggling in school, she couldn't focus<br />and her grades were falling. Her teacher thought she had<br />attention deficit disorder. I started giving her Watkins<br />Children's Chewable, and in two weeks, her teacher said,<br />"Whatever you are doing...keep it up." She finished the year<br />with straight As."<br />—Tawny Dawson, Pennsylvania<br /><br />"My son has been taking Superfood Multiple(Super Multi) for<br />several months and he is a different little boy! He is getting<br />much better grades and has been able to focus at school, which<br />was very difficult for him before taking the Watkins vitamins."<br />—Kelly Borchardt, Ontario<br /><br />The following testimonial does not relate directly to behavior,<br />but since recurring infections affect school attendance and<br />therefore, performance, this testimonial has been included.<br /><br />"My 8-year old daughter used to have ear infections every month.<br />Since using Watkins Children's Chewables, she no longer has ear<br />infections and has missed no days of school from illness.We use<br />many of Watkins dietary supplements and it's the best health<br />insurance investment we've ever made."<br />—Laurie Bird, Arizona<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit...

After age 40, you don't<br />produce as much CoQ10, which means everything slows down. Your<br />heart and brain are not as efficient and even your skin doesn't<br />produce new cells as rapidly, making your skin look older.<br /><br />Low levels can also lead to fatigue and weight gain. Recently,<br />CoQ10 was shown to slow the progression of Parkinson's disease<br />and may hold promise for other brain disorders. CoQ10 dietary<br />supplements are recommended if you are over the age of 40, to<br />strengthen your heart, protect your brain and energize your<br />entire body.<br /><br />Score a perfect 10 with Watkins E+CoQ10. Keep your heart and<br />entire body energized with this unique, heart healthy blend of<br />all natural vitamin E, selenium and hawthorn in a softgel.

It can help you<br />to peel off the pounds. Raking and planting burn 324 calories<br />per hour. Pushing a motorized lawn mower, trimming shrubs and<br />weeding burn 364 calories per hour. Digging, spading and<br />tilling burn a whopping 404 calories per hour.<br /><br />It's no wonder gardeners are a healthier bunch. They tend to<br />have lower blood pressure, more strength and endurance,<br />stronger bones and muscles, healthier hearts and lower body fat.<br />Gardening is also good for your mind. It's both calming and<br />stimulating and helps you to relieve tension. You'll rake in<br />even more benefits when the fruits of your labor are consumed.<br /><br />To protect your green thumb and the rest of your hands, use<br />Watkins all natural Old Red Barn Salve after gardening, with<br />natural plant oils and vitamin E. It will soothe and protect<br />your hands and keep you feeling more like a gladiola and less<br />like a pansy.

The more you<br />learn about nutrition and exercise, the more you will<br />recognize their importance in your chosen lifestyle.<br /><br />Yes, you can make a positive difference in your health and<br />environment...<span class="fullpost"> <p>Are you getting the bargain you think you are? You may not be<br />getting the bargain you think you are. Experts say too often<br />you may be buying far more good health than you really need.<br /><br />The reason being, that a tablet or capsule can only hold so<br />much. When a multi-vitamin supplement contains an<br />overabundance of nutrients, many different minerals and is<br />packed with herbs along with vitamins is it really a bargin?<br /><br />The greater the number of different ingredients in a single<br />tablet or capsule, the less of each individual ingredient you<br />can have. This could make the tablet or capsule hardly worth<br />taking sometimes because it contains so little of each<br />nutrient.<br /><br />This can hurt you in other ways. You may think you're getting<br />more protection than you really are. This can be especially<br />true for women when the mineral is calcium.<br /><br />You can't fit all of a women's calcium needs into one multi-<br />vitamin supplement. For women calcium should always be taken<br />as a separate supplement. Particularly to women, buying a<br />multi-vitamin supplement that boasts a complete nutrient<br />package can be misleading.<br /><br />Can excessive nutrient levels cause health problems? The fact<br />is something as natural and healthy as a supplement can make<br />you feel sick. Your reaction to a specific supplement could<br />be caused by the way the supplement is manufactured or even<br />the source of the nutrients themselves.<br /><br />Your reaction to a supplement may result in everything from<br />dizziness to headaches. Also fatigue, hives or other allergic<br />type reactions. Switch brands if a supplement you take doesn't<br />agree with you. You might be surprised to see a real<br />difference in how your body reacts.<br /><br />Many experts say when it comes to choosing a brand of<br />supplements name recognition counts. The bigger more<br />experienced companies are more likely to give you a higher<br />quality product. Also important is seeking a supplement with<br />no sugars, starches, binders or fillers of any kind.<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br />_______________<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit "My Wellness Store".<br /><br />Wellness is My Profession ...

The more you<br />learn about nutrition and exercise, the more you will<br />recognize their importance in your chosen lifestyle.<br />_______________<br /><br />Making certain your supplements are getting into your<br />bloodstream should be your goal. If you x-ray someone's<br />stomach, you can often see dark shadows indicating<br />undissolved supplements that were consumed many hours before.<br />These undissolved supplements often carry the equivalent of a<br />bullet proof vest in the form of a hard shell coating.<br /><br />To help ensure that your supplements do dissolve quickly and<br />completely, look for products that carry the "U.S.P Approved"<br />(U.S. Pharmacopeia) seal on the label. This seal means your<br />supplements were tested by a government agency and found to<br />dissolve in a minimum amount of time.<br /><br />U.S.P. approval is a voluntary action and not all companies<br />do it or comply with the agency's recommendations. There are<br />also companies that don't seek U.S.P. approval who make<br />supplements with a high dissolution rate.<br /><br />All you need is vinegar and water to check your supplement<br />dissolution rate. Simply mix equal parts of water and vinegar<br />in a glass container. Next, drop in your supplement and check<br />it after 40 minutes. Your supplement should be well on the<br />way to being dissolved. If it's not, it's probably going to<br />pass through your body undigested.<br /><br />Finally, always check the expiration date before buying a<br />supplement. If you don't find one, don't buy the product. If<br />you do find one, you should be able to finish the bottle<br />before the expiration date.<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br />_______________<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit "My Wellness Store".<br /><br />Wellness is My Profession ...

The more you<br />learn about nutrition and exercise, the more you will<br />recognize their importance in your chosen lifestyle.<br />_______________<br /><br />Do you need Dietary Supplements? Scientists now know that<br />foods alone cannot supply you the higher levels of nutrients<br />needed.<br /><br />Like the nutrients that enhance your mental function or mood.<br />Even the nutrients that offer you protection from cancer,<br />heart disease, birth defects, bone fractures, mental decline<br />and aging.<br /><br />About half of American consumers now use supplements,<br />according to recent surveys. As astonishing and unbelievable<br />as this may be, more than a third of our middle class<br />American children and the vast majority of adults are<br />severely malnourished. Both groups eating for taste, cost and<br />convenience.<br /><br />A good diet is your basic foundation for better health. The<br />generally accepted balanced diet or mistakenly accepted<br />standards of RDAs are not adequate to prevent chronic<br />malnutrition.<br /><br />You should eat natural whole foods rich in a variety of<br />nutrients to maintain good health. Equally important for<br />optimum nutrition, these nutrients should be supplied in the<br />right proportions. Today more than ever supplementing your<br />diet is simply necessary, if you hope to experience optimum<br />health.<br /><br />Normal nutrition may seem adequate. Most of life on this<br />planet can survive with less than optimal levels of nutrition.<br />However when an effort is made to optimize your nutrition,<br />by providing more than what is just normal or adequate, your<br />life wil become significantly better, healthier and longer.<br /><br />Scientific studies have proven that good diets with generous<br />nutrient intakes can help optimize your health and protect<br />you against serious diseases. It seems the "well balanced<br />diet" is at best a prescription for mediocrity! This should<br />be your first step toward greater nutritional awareness. Next<br />is the adoption of other healthy lifestyle choices.<br /><br />Dietary supplements are not meant to replace your diet and no<br />supplement can do this. The best advice on the use of dietary<br />supplements is to first establish a healthful diet. Then<br />supplement your diet responsibly, based on your individual<br />personal needs and lifestyle.<br /><br />Think Wellness!<br /><br />To learn more about natural based complementary and<br />alternative products that enhance your lifestyle goals, you<br />are cordially invited to visit "My Wellness Store".<br /><br />Wellness is My Profession - Solutions is My Business<br /><br /><br /><br /></span></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19390642-116750707065401605?l=thinkwellnessinfoblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02993934346576716670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19390642.post-1165700751596466192006-12-09T16:40:00.000-05:002007-01-14T14:23:30.546-05:00<span style="font-family:arial;">Yes, you can make a positive difference in your health and<br />environment...<span class="fullpost"> <p>This health article is intended to be a primary source of<br />wellness information for you and your family. The more you<br />learn about nutrition and exercise, the more you will<br />recognize their importance in your chosen lifestyle.<br />_______________<br /><br />In the United States the prevalence of obesity(a condition<br />characterized by excessive bodily fat) has doubled in the<br />past two decades.<br /><br />Nearly one third of adults are obese. That is, they have a<br />body mass index(BMI) of 30 or greater. This has become one of<br />the fastest growing segments of our population. With a BMI<br />greater than 30 you have accompanying comorbidities.<br /><br />The prevalence of overweight among our children and<br />adolescents has increased substantially over the last two<br />decades. It is estimated that as many as 16 percent of our<br />children and adolescents are overweight. This represents a<br />doubling of the rate among children and a tripling of the<br />rate among adolescents.<br /><br />Excess body fat leads to a higher risk for premature death,<br />type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular<br />disease, stroke, gall bladder disease, respiratory<br />dysfunction, gout, osteoarthritis and certain kinds of<br />cancers. Thus this high prevalence of overweight and obesity<br />has become a great public health concern.<br /><br />The goal for overweight children and adolescents, should be<br />to slow your rate of weight gain while achieving normal<br />growth and development. Even modest weight loss of 10<br />pounds has health benefits and the prevention of further<br />weight gain becomes very important. Ideally, the goal for<br />adults is to achieve and maintain a body weight that<br />optimizes their health.<br /><br />Maintaining a healthy weight throughout childhood may reduce<br />the risk of you becoming an overweight or obese adult. The<br />keys to controlling your body weight are, eating fewer<br />calories while increasing your physical activity.<br /><br />Overweight and obesity are currently significant public<br />health issues. If your at a healthy weight you should strive<br />to maintain your weight and if you are underweight you may<br />need to increase your weight.<br /><br />Not all Americans need to lose weight!<br /><br />To learn more about natural based products that will enhance<br />your lifestyle goals, you are cordially invited to visit "My<br />Wellness Store".<br /><br />Wellness is My Profession - Solutions is My Business</span></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19390642-116570075159646619?l=thinkwellnessinfoblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Rickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02993934346576716670noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19390642.post-1157382389464856742006-09-04T10:04:00.000-05:002006-09-04T10:06:29.486-05:00<span style="font-family:arial;">If your looking for a gift of quality that requires no work<br />on your part...<span class="fullpost"> <p>Make every gift giving occasion extra special with a beautiful<br />gift tray filled with Watkins quality products!
