Why I Recommend Modifilan

Modifilan is a concentrated extract from the richest type of Brown Seaweed – Laminaria. This unique nutritional product brings up high volume of all-important organic elements found in seaweed. Patented technology of extraction takes off heavy outer fiber of Laminaria leaf, enhances minerals, vitamins and polysaccharides for easier digestion and better results. FORTY pounds of raw seaweed are needed for production of only ONE pound of Modifilan - highly potent, fully bioavailable, concentrated natural source of:

-           ORGANIC IODINE

-           POLYSACCHARIDES

 -           FUCOIDAN

 -           FUCOXANTHIN

-           72 MINERALS AND VITAMINS

Iodine feeds the Thyroid gland, which controls metabolism. 

Alginate is a natural absorbent. Its molecule passes via the digestive tract and binds withtoxic metals that are often secreted there through the bile. Then, since our bodies cannot absorb Alginate (particularly when it is complexed with the heavy metals) it passes through and is excreted, taking the heavy metals with it. 

Fucoidan promotes apoptosis (self-destruction of cancer cells) and it helps to naturally eliminate harmful cells.

I have been taking Modifilan for many years, since I found high load of heavy metals in my tissues through Tissue Mineral Analysis. Check out my previous  blog on it. I offer this test to my clients via ARL services - fairly inexpensive and quick way to see what you carry in your tissues. Also I  recommend MODIFILAN to everyone as a prophylactic nutritional supplement. It is the best recipe of Nature for a very healthy food. 

In simple words, MODIFILAN is just a concentrated dried juice of kelp – easy to digest, rich with ALL naturally occurring minerals and vitamins of raw seaweed.

Modifilan is available for purchase at $24 per 90-count bottle or a box of 12 bottles at $20.67 per bottle, totaled to $248. You can order it from my Shop page, or ask me directly at your next appointment.

When you learn, teach

Many of you know we were away for two weeks in Tucson Arizona at The Creative Health Solutions Clinic run by anti-aging health coach and Jing Master, Truth Calkins. Renowned health and wellness expert on the West Coast due to his successful practice while working at Erewhon Natural Foods Market, where he ran the Tonic Bar.

Truth's approach to health is rooted in four principles:

• Healthy Diet
• Supplements + Herbs
• Exercises
• Electromagnetic Medicine

After this amazing first-hand experience, I am now a believer in his approach, which is comprehensive, common sense but more cutting edge, than anything I was aware of. Truth (it is his real name) will be revealing his teachings online by the end of this year. You'll be the first to know and I have his permission to share with you what I learned and experienced so far. I'm in the process of writing a series of blog posts around the critical components of the four  principles.

Meanwhile here are my personal stats after two weeks on Truth's protocol:

• lost 10.5 lb
• completely off coffee - goodbye my "BulletProof" Buttered One
• completely off salt and sugar - means no dark chocolate or fresh fruit/berries for me for now, no himalayan salt ether
• rosacea from my cheeks and chin - disappeared for good
•  deep sleep without regular Melatonin or occasional Glycine - new norm
• off my daily thyroid meds - was long desire of mine - so far, so good. I do not recommend you to do the same here. I am not your doctor,  just sharing my story.

While away, I read quite a few new books per Truth's recommendations. Check them out on my website here in the first two rows: My Favorite Books.

Stay tuned!

Remembering Dr. Chipper

It has been two years this August 2nd since Dr. Chipper passed on. We miss him terribly and I know many of you remember his presence with warm feelings. He was a great addition to our life and practice and I firmly believe he  orchestrated Dr. Dexter coming into our lives.

60th Birthday – Let the Good Times Roll

Last month my dear husband gave me the best 60th birthday present - a getaway experience at The Buttermilk Inn,  which included great farm to table dinner, breakfast, lunch and Spa treatments.  You can see some  of the dishes of my celebratory  dinner: Fritz with Truffle oil, fantastic  fresh greens salad with goat cheese, and then Nicholas devouring Ruben sandwich at lunch. Yes, in our raw/vegetarian  family style eating, Ruben sandwich  is a rare treat for my man. It  happens once every three years, and I am happy to share this moment with you.

We all have the most comforting favorite childhood food, for me it is potatoes in any shape/form -the Irish streak in me,  for Nicholas it is famous NYC Ruben.

Our Dr. Dexter, the dog had fabulous time kissing Holly, the donkey every time we passed by the pastures with llamas and donkeys, chasing ducks to the pond or posing with Hudson river on the background.

Golden Milk

I first got the taste of Golden Milk - a healthy drink with many healing properties, especially for endocrine issues at The Raw Food Institute, the place I go four times a year to cleanse with gourmet raw food and green juices and to share the gifts of Reflexology.

The combination of turmeric, honey,  coconut oil, coconut milk and spices is warming, rejuvenating and delicious. I certainly recommend you to make it and taste for yourself.

Curcumin, which has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, is the most active constituent of turmeric. It has been shown to improve circulation and estrogen metabolism. In Ayurveda, turmeric is considered an important tool in combating everything from amenorrhea and endometriosis to fibroids and cysts

If you take turmeric as a supplement in a pill form, it will not be well absorbed unless taken with black pepper or piperine, a constituent of black pepper responsible for its pungency.

How to make Golden Milk:  

Step 1: Turmeric Paste: 

Mix three ingredients in a small sauce pan. Turn the heat to medium high and stir constantly until the mixture is a thick paste. This does not take long.  Let this mixture cool and keep it in a small jar in the fridge.

1/4 cup of turmeric powder ~1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper ~1/2 cup of filtered water

Step 2: Golden Milk

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of coconut or almond milk (see my blog on home made almond milk) 
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• 1/4 teaspoon of your turmeric paste from fridge
• Honey
• Cinnamon
• Cayenne pepper

Combine first three ingredients in a pot, heat to medium, whisk until fully mixed, do not allow the mixture to boil, add honey, cinnamon, cayenne to taste.

Drink Golden Milk before bed. Sweet healthy dreams!
