			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>There is so much information about health that it is easy to be overwhelmed by the tsunami.</strong></p>
<p> Books, magazines, infomercials, talk shows, television ads, radio ads, newspaper ad feature experts dissecting real and imaginary health concerns that “every American should know about.”  Media advertisers are bombarding you with sound bites or glossy pages for: prescriptive medicine, natural advances and smiling faces extolling near miraculous additions to everyday food.</p>
<p><strong> Is it any wonder that this torrent of minutia has you confused?</strong></p>
<p> Your challenge is to remove yourself from this quagmire of irrelevance and come face-to-face with this warning about your health that is similar to a sign you often see in antique stores, “<em><strong>You break it – you bought it</strong></em>.”  Your motto, concerning your health, should be:  “<strong><em>It is easier to stay healthy than to become healthy</em></strong>.”</p>
<p> Certainly, you need to consider the possibility of the “bad luck” of an unforeseen accident or a particularly virulent infective agent, but, if you manage the factors that you can control, it is more likely that you will enjoy the benefits of being healthy.</p>
<p> Personally, I cover the known deficiencies that exist in my, and everyone’s, diet – <a title="Everyone needs them - no one gets them" href="http://nupro.net/store/products.asp?cat=pH+Balancing+%2D+Phase+1&amp;partner=nno" target="_self">the essentials for wellbeing</a>.  Next, I filter my choices through a question that I ask myself before I choose to do something:  “Will my body thank me for this later?”  When the answer is yes, more often than not, I know I am contributing to my wellbeing.  If the answer is no, I use a <a title="What is a nutraceutical supplement?" href="http://nupro.net/store/whatisanutraceutical.asp?partner=nno" target="_self">nutraceutical supplement </a>that is formulated with combinations of complementary, natural ingredients, intended for a particular purpose, to fill the gap left by my choices.</p>
<p><strong> Declining Health Is Not Inevitable, But It Is Predictable.  </strong> The predictors are:</p>
<p><strong> You are what you eat.</strong></p>
<p>Joel Wallach, DVM, ND, a noted author, sought out speaker and producer of a controversial tape: <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dead Doctors Don’t Lie</span> frequently points out:  “<em>If a visit to the Super Market results in bags of cans, boxes and bags of food, you should throw away the contents and eat the packaging</em>.”  The message is that processing, preserving, enhancing the appearance and taste of these products significantly diminishes their nutritional value.  Whole food, fresh, ripe and properly prepared, is the superior choice.</p>
<p> <strong>Keep your body clean.</strong></p>
<p>In 2006, The American Holistic Medical Association, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Guide To Holistic Health</span> reports:  “There are an estimated 80,000 chemicals regularly in use today, with an additional 1,000 to 2,000 chemicals added to this list each year.  Only 3 percent of them have been tested to determine whether they are toxic or carcinogenic.  In 1998, the United states released approximately 500 billion tons of toxic chemicals into the environment.”</p>
<p> People shower or bathe everyday to keep the outside of their bodies clean.  It is the healthy thing to do.  What about the inside?  The “stuff” in the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat builds up over time.  <a title="Why are you storing all that stuff?" href="http://nupro.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=000rph1&amp;partner=nno" target="_self">Keeping the inside of your body as clean as the outside pays dividends</a>.</p>
<p><strong> Take responsibility.</strong></p>
<p><a title="or pay to be sick." href="http://nupro.net/store/healthbudget.asp?partner=nno" target="_self">Invest in your health</a>.  You have the most to lose if your health is compromised.  Stop expecting that someone or some magical machine; thing or plant will fix what you have broken.  It is your body that maintains your health using the nutrients derived from the things you put in your mouth.  Ask the question:  “Will my body thank me for this later?” </p>
<p> <strong>Do the best you can.</strong></p>
<p>Stress, fast food, skipping meals and inactivity are one set of predictors; rest, a healthy diet and moderate exercise are another.  Choose wisely.  Make changes where you can, then use <a title="Don't settle for less than Radiant Health" href="http://nupro.net/store/categories.asp?partner=nno" target="_self">supplements to fill the gap</a>.  Just remember:  “You break it, you bought it.”</p>
<p> <strong><em>Health is a journey that features you, the person who has the most to gain, or lose, when you choose a path.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong> NOTE:</strong>  Are you doing the best you can?  <a title="How healthy are you?" href="http://nupro.net/store/nuprohealthmeter.asp?partner=nno" target="_self">Take the test</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Parasites are a topic most people do not want to consider.</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://nupro.net/store/images/parasitecollage.jpg" alt="150 different human parasites" width="244" height="125" align="left" hspace="10" vspace="5" />People believe that intestinal parasites are are limited to Third World countries and that they are uncommon in the U.S.</p>
<p><strong>Nothing could be further from the truth <em>!</em> </strong>Recent studies it has been estimate that <span style="background-color: yellow;">85% of the North American adult population has at least one form of intestinal parasite or organ parasite living in their bodies.</span> Some authorities feel this figure may be as high as 95%.</p>
<p><strong>How can we possibly get infected in the United States?</strong></p>
<p>Here are just a few of the ways:</p>
<ul>
<li>increased international business and tourist travel,</li>
<li>armed forces returning home,</li>
<li>immigration,</li>
<li>contaminated water supplies,</li>
<li>swimming in contaminated lakes and streams,</li>
<li>your pets or other peoples pets,</li>
<li>food supplies, such as pork, processed meats, uncooked meats, chicken, lamb, and even fish may contain human intestinal parasites and organ parasites &#8211; to name a few.</li>
</ul>
<p>The lack of treatment for intestinal and organ parasites is the #1 contributing factor in the prevalence of colon parasites, intestinal parasites and organ parasites in people -  and it is solely responsible for infesting other people with the same unwelcome guests.</p>
<p><strong>Like it or not, everyone is affected by parasites</strong>.</p>
<p>Parasites are organisms that derive nutrition and shelter by living in or on another organism – living and dying in the host (your body), reproducing, along the way, to assure that there are future generations to live and die in their host – producing others to be passed on to another unsuspecting host.  Just about any part of your body is vulnerable to infestation: the lungs, liver, esophagus, brain, blood, muscles, joints, skin&#8230;and even your eyes!</p>

<li>Parasites <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>are not limited</strong></span> to 3rd World Countries or poor people,</li>
<li>they are found in all climates.</li>
<li>Besides the probability of local parasitic contamination &#8230; vacations &#8230; natural disasters &#8230; flooding &#8230; accidents at up-stream sewage treatment plants &#8230; increased mobility &#8230; international air travel &#8230; immigration and Armed Forces personnel returning home &#8230; significantly increases the likelihood of a parasitic contamination is being delivered to you from some other place.</li>

<p><strong>Parasites may do any or all of six things</strong>:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Intestinal parasites and organ parasites cause physical damage</strong> to the body by perforating the intestines, circulatory system, lungs, liver, other organs and tissue essentially making Swiss cheese of them. Food allergies, for example, may be one of the indications of a parasitic condition of the intestine which allows food to leak into the lymph system, causing an immune response to the leaked material.</li>
<li><strong>Weaken, damage or block certain organs</strong> just with their presence.</li>
<li><strong>Lump together into a mass.</strong> Parasites may exist in the brain, heart, lungs, other organs, structures and tissue of your body.</li>
<li><strong>Weaken the host by robbing the host of essential nutrients</strong>, taking a portion of the nutrients on which the host depends.</li>
<li><strong>Poison the host with their wastes.</strong> In the best case, the host does double duty disposing of its waste and that of the parasites. Worse, when the host has difficulty disposing of the parasite&#8217;s wastes, a poisoning occurs called verminous intoxication.</li>
<li><strong>Fool the host&#8217;s immune system</strong> into believing the parasite is part of its body.  The parasitic population is allowed grow unaffected by any of the body&#8217;s normal defense mechanisms.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Symptoms of intestinal parasites, colon parasites and organ parasites may include:</strong></p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Constipation</span>: due to worms actually blocking the intestine.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Diarrhea</span>: certain parasites release a hormone like substances that can lead to a watery stool.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Gas and Bloating</span>: Some human parasites that live in the small intestine causing inflammation that produces gas and bloating.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Irritable Bowel Syndrome</span>: Human parasites can irritate, inflame and coat the lining of the intestines causing symptoms of this disease.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Joint and Muscle Aches and Pains:</span> Parasites can migrate and become enclosed in a sac in joint fluids, worms can do this in muscles as well.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Anemia:</span> Some intestinal worms attach themselves to the lining of the intestines;  feeding on the vital nutrients of the host.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Allergies:</span> Parasites can penetrate the intestinal lining allowing large undigested food particles into the body which can create the immune system response that is often assumed to be an allergy.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Skin Conditions:</span> Intestinal worms can cause hives, rashes, weeping eczema and a whole host of other skin conditions.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Nervousness:</span> Human parasites create wastes and toxic substances that can be severe irritants to the central nervous system. Restlessness or anxiety are often the symptoms associated with these parasitic wastes.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Sleep Disturbances:</span> Multiple awakenings at night between the hours of 2 and 3 AM are possibly caused by the liver attempts to flush toxic wastes, produced by parasitic infestations, out of the body.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Tooth Grinding and Clenching:</span> This has been observed in patients with known cases of human parasitic infestations.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Chronic  Tiredness:<strong> </strong></span><strong></strong>fatigue, flu like complaints, apathy, impaired concentration, depression, and memory problems. The human parasites are simply stealing your food and nutrients and overwhelming your body with their wastes.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Immune System Dysfunctions:</span> Human parasites depress the immune system by the continued stimulation of the immune system which over time exhausts your defense system.</p>
<p><span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Excess Weight, Acne and Others:</span> These can be telltale signs of parasitic invasion including, excessive hunger, asthma, bad taste in the mouth and bad breath, epilepsy, migraines and even heart disease and other degenerative disease.</p>
<p><strong>Everyone can be affected </strong>by intestinal parasites, colon parasites and even organ parasites;<strong> </strong>robbing you of essential nutrition, living, reproducing, dying, weakening and damaging your body, creating wastes that burden or even poison your body, repeating the cycle over and over with each new generation, in increasingly larger numbers.</p>
<p><strong>Nothing New</strong></p>
<p>Humans have been using natural means to treat parasites since the beginning of recorded history.</p>
<ul>
<li>They dealt with parasites <strong>in the spring</strong>, after a long winter of close contact with other humans,</li>
<li><strong>in the fall</strong>, after a summer of contamination from the environment, water, food and soil or</li>
<li><strong>anytime they felt their energy and vitality slipping away</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Classic herbal methods for managing intestinal parasites, colon parasites and organ parasites include: Wormwood, Clove and Black Walnut.  More modern Nutraceutical formulations have given rise to even more efficient natural means for dealing with parasites.</p>
<p>Why wait? The benefits of dealing with parasites, interrupting their life cycles and protecting yourself from further invasion are obvious.   <a href="http://nupro.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=14">Learn how you can deal with parasites.</a></p>
