Turning back the years (internally)

These are part of my notes from a workshop by Carla Greene at the 2012 Young Living Essential Oils convention.

For the aging process, it is 80% lifestyle and 20% genetics. Did you know that diet and smoking are equal causes of getting cancer?

Proper nutrition can prevent genes from expressing itself (meaning, can prevent a bad gene).  A lot of us are over fed and under nourished.  The soil nowadays is depleted and doesn’t transfer all of the nutrients.  Our food today has fewer nutrients than the food we had 100 years ago.  If supplements don’t have good binders, it goes out in our pee.  Make sure that the supplements are from a whole food source or your body may not be able to absorb all of the vitamins and minerals.  Think of supplements as insurance. 

How can essential oils help us?
-    Can deliver therapeutic effects
-    Deliver nutrients
-    Preserve well-being
-    Sustain a healthy immune system

Did you know that the root cause of the majority of chronic health conditions is inflammation?
Did you know that free radicals speed up the aging process and that enzymes can slow it down?

How can some of these supplements with essential oils help us?
-    Omega Blue – fish oil (omega 3 fatty acids)
       o    Can reduce wrinkles
       o    Reduce inflammation
       o    Helps cell wall to be healthy
-    Ningxia Red – whole food antioxidant drink
       o    When choosing a super fruit drink, don’t choose one with junk juices like pear, apple, and grape as it raises the glycemic index (high sugar spikes causes wrinkles).
       o    Kills free radicals
-    Essentialzyme-4 - enzymes
       o    When you are 20 years old, you have 98% of your enzymes.  When you are 40, you have 75%.  And when you are 70, you have 33%.  Most of us have an enzyme deficiency.  It will take us 2-3 years to build up our reserves.
       o    Decreases swelling and inflammation
       o    Restores blood circulation
       o    Improves the removal of waste products

Why put essential oils in supplements?  The results are 1/3 faster than a high quality supplement and within a month you will know the difference.  After 3 months, you will see more of a difference with your energy level, movements (less stiff joints), emotional well-being, and bowel movements.
