What If Your Body’s DNA Is Written In Pencil?

Spiritual teachers have known for millennial that our body is programmable by language, words and thought. This has now been scientifically proven and explained.

DNA is an amazing molecule and is one of the great wonders of biology. During the 90’s, while western scientists focused on 5% of the DNA (ignoring the other 95% which they dimmed “Junk DNA”), a group of Russian scientists was formed to study the complete human genome. They refused to accept that such a huge majority of DNA could hold no research value.

Chronic Inflammation – the Silent Killer

Inflammation is a vital part of the body’s immune response. It is the body’s attempt to heal itself after an injury; defend itself against foreign invaders, such as viruses and bacteria; and repair damaged tissue.

The Good and The… Ugly.
Without inflammation, wounds would fester and infections could become deadly. It is often characterized by redness, swelling, warmth, and sometimes pain and some immobility. You actually need some level of inflammation in your body to stay healthy.

About The Efficacy And Safety Of Sunscreens

According to the Environmental Working Group’s (EWG) 11th Annual Sunscreen Guide, there are currently more than 880 beach and sport sunscreens, 480 moisturizers and 120 lip products with SPF but the surprising truth is this: beyond the knowledge that sunscreens prevent sunburns, little else is known about the safety and efficacy of sunscreen lotions and sprays.

The Sunshine Vitamin
Perhaps the most well-known contribution sunlight has to our well-being is triggering Vitamin D synthesis. The term “vitamin D” refers to a group of fat-soluble compounds that serve as hormone precursors to the active form of vitamin D, called calcitriol.

​One form of vitamin D is vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), found in fish, egg yolks, and cheese, and synthesized in the skin of humans and animals. At least 1,000 different genes governing virtually every tissue in the body are now thought to be regulated by D3, the active form of the vitamin, including several involved in calcium metabolism and neuromuscular and immune system functioning. Another form, vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), is synthesized by plants, such as mushrooms, and is the form most often used to fortify foods such as milk.

The Most Overlooked Wellness Essential
The role sunlight plays in our health is a major factor in restoring optimal vitality. Sunlight – nature’s full-spectrum light – is the most overlooked wellness essential. Without the sun, there would be no life on this planet. Our physiology, metabolism, cognitive and emotional abilities are all affected by the sun’s activity. Research shows that our genes are programmed to respond to exposure to full spectrum light. Sunlight is critical for the healthy development, growth and maintenance of our body and mind. It contributes to increased cell function, metabolism, detoxification and healthy levels of cortisol and melatonin, which balance our sleep and energy levels.

Write something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview.

Do not wait until you feel thirsty!
Increasing your water intake is arguably the simplest and most inexpensive way to improve your overall health and slow down the aging process.

Here are a few guidelines to help you stay hydrated:
A pure source of water is essential. Drink only purified water (best options: under-the-sink RO system or RainFreshWater.com).
Drink one-half of your body weight (pounds) in ounces of water daily. In other words, if you weigh 140 pounds, you should drink 70 ounces of water daily. On average, men should consume about 3 liters (13 cups) and women about 2.2 liters (9 cups) of water each day.
Wake up with Water. Sleeping utilizes energy and water stores and leaves us dehydrated in the morning. Begin your day with 16 oz of water or more to replenish used stores and for colon cleansing purposes. This will in turn enhance metabolism and help you burn fat.
Minimize caffeine & alcohol consumption. Also, eliminate consumption of soft and energy drinks. Diuretics further dehydrate the body and strip it of valuable mineral and alkaline buffering stores. This leads to chronic conditions and further tissue insult.

High quality drinking water is increasingly difficult to come by in this day and age. The health conscious amongst us know that drinking unfiltered tap water is generally not a great idea.
The EPA and Congress regulate about 100 pollutants and 91 chemicals through the Safe Drinking Water Act. Yet there are more than 60,000 chemicals used within the U.S., many of which have been identified as probable carcinogens. According to some estimates, there are now more than 2,100 known chemical toxins present in U.S. tap water.

A common and easily corrected deficiency that is present in what is estimated to be upward of 75 percent of society is chronic dehydration.
​
Chronic dehydration is a condition that occurs over time when a person does not drink enough fluids day after day. While chronic dehydration does not have the sudden and intense nature of the acute form, it may result in many serious health problems.

​Quoting the late Dr F. Batmanghelidj, M.D, who dedicated his life to researching the effects of dehydration, and the correlation between dehydration and disease: “My research revealed that unintentional dehydration produces stress, chronic pains and many degenerative diseases. Dry mouth is not the only sign of dehydration and waiting to get thirsty is wrong”.
Let’s examine quickly some of the major symptoms associated with chronic dehydration:
