Traditional saunas to 195°F. Infrareds heat up in about 10-20 minutes. A traditional sauna, sized properly, will heat a sauna in 20-35 minutes. However, heating up an infrared only provides for that &#8220;toasty&#8221; feeling. To perspire, you must be exposed to the infrared rays. It generally takes 12-20 minutes of exposure to begin sweating.</p>
<p><strong>FAR Infrared Saunas</strong></p>
<p>Infrared heat primarily warms only objects in its direct path and has a lesser effect on temperature of the surrounding air.</p>
<p><a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunbather.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-375" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="sunbather" src="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunbather-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>To understand how infrared heat works, picture yourself outdoors on a summer day with the sun beaming overhead. Your body feels warm from the sun and you become hot. Then a cloud passes overhead, blocking out the sun. The temperature outside has not changed, but you feel cooler in the shade. The sun’s infrared rays were heating your body.</p>
<p>Infrared heaters warm the body in the same manner as natural sunlight. Infrared emitters in the sauna mimic and intensify this effect. All life requires heat from the sun.</p>
<p>FAR infrared heat is not ultraviolet radiation but a narrow band of energy within the 5.6 to 15 micron (µ) level. This type of energy travels only 2-3&#8243; deep into the body to increase circulation and nourish damaged tissue.</p>
<p>The sun is the primary source of radiant energy, but not all of this energy is beneficial. Sunlight also contains harmful solar radiation. Although life needs energy from the sun, too much sunlight damages the skin.</p>
<p>Infrared heat provides all the healthy benefits of natural sunlight without any of the dangerous effects of solar radiation. FAR infrared heat therapy uses the wavelength of the visible and non-visible light spectrum of sunlight that heats the body normally.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunchart.jpg"></a>Infrared, the healthy part of sunlight:<br />
</strong><a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunchart.jpg"></a><a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunchart.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-377" title="sunchart" src="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/wp-content/uploads/sunchart.jpg" alt="" width="388" height="277" /></a>Sunlight is part of a wide spectrum of frequencies, including ultraviolet and infrared rays. Visible sunlight is in the middle of this spectrum.</p>
<p>At a higher frequency, visible light changes to ultraviolet rays that can cause sunburn. At a lower frequency, however, sunlight changes to gentle infrared rays. It is these rays that allow the sun to warm you, even on a cold winter&#8217;s day.</p>
<p>Varying in wavelength from 0.76µ to 1000µ, infrared light is everywhere, even in the palm of your hand; as infrared heat is produced as a natural by-product of energy production within the body.</p>
<p><strong>The West Coast Saunas frequencies:<br />
</strong>Within this wide spread of frequencies, the 5.6-15 micron range is the most therapeutic to the human body. Split evenly between the 9.4 µ pivot point of peak human output, our authentic Carbon Wave 360 heating panels are within the desired range for maximum human benefit. We utilize Carbon based mixed materials consisting of 20 different kinds of organic minerals and elements. The operating temperature of our infrared saunas is between 120° and 150°F, compared to traditional saunas which operate at 185° to 195°F. This is important because one can withstand longer therapy sessions, resulting in increased sweat production. Carbon Wave 360 heaters are not only efficient but luxurious, cost effective and safe.</p>
<p><strong>Infrared means deep heat:<br />
</strong>Because infrared penetrates safely and comfortably up to 3 inches inside your body, even your deep tissues and organs are stimulated, meaning you perspire. Hard to reach impurities are eliminated through your skin using lower, comfortable temperatures.</p>
<p><strong>Increases blood circulation and strengthens your cardiovascular system:<br />
</strong>As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder pumping more blood, achieving the conditioning benefits of continuous exercise. By widening your blood vessels and enriching your blood with oxygen you feel more energetic and your skin gets a beautiful, youthful glow.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Regular use of a sauna may impact a similar stress on the cardiovascular system as running, and its regular use may be as effective [at] burning calories.&#8221;<br />
</em>- Journal of the American Medical Association</p>
<p><strong>Infrared, ideal for detoxification<br />
</strong>Dr. Toshiko Yamazaki, M.D. owns a clinic in Japan where she has done extensive research on the therapeutic uses of far infrared. In her book, &#8220;The Science of Far-Infrared Therapies&#8221;, she explains that one of the reasons FIR (Far-Infrared) has beneficial results in a variety of illnesses is the ability of FIR waves to remove toxins, which are often at the core of many health problems.</p>
<p><strong>Saunas Provide a Series of Health Benefits</strong></p>
<p><strong>Pain Relief:</strong> Heat relieves pain by expanding blood vessels and increasing circulation. Better circulation allows more oxygen to reach injured areas of the body and helps reduce pain and speed up the healing process.</p>
<p><strong>Weight Control:</strong> Perspiring is part of the complex thermoregulatory process of the body that increases the heart rate, cardiac output, and metabolic rate. The process requires a large amount of energy and reduces excess moisture, salt and subcutaneous fat. Fat becomes water-soluble and the body sweats out fats and toxins.</p>
<p><strong>Exercise:</strong> During a 10-20 minute sauna session, your heart rate increases by 50-75%. This provides the same metabolic result as physical exercise. The increased cardiac load is the equivalent to a brisk walk. There is a nominal effect on blood pressure because the heat also causes blood vessels in skin to expand to accommodate increased blood flow.</p>
<p><strong>Detoxification:</strong> Toxins such as sodium, alcohol, nicotine, <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cholesterol</a> and carcinogenic heavy metals (cadmium, lead, zinc, <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/herbalchelator" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/herbalchelator';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">nickel</a>) accumulate in the body during modern daily life. The body eliminates most toxins naturally by sweating. Heat therapy stimulates the sweat glands that cleanse and detoxify the skin. The heat simply speeds up the body&#8217;s natural process.</p>
<p><strong>Induced Fever:</strong> Most illnesses are accompanied by a fever. During a fever, the body heats up to eliminate viruses and attack foreign agents. Often misunderstood, this rise in temperature is a natural stage of the immune system&#8217;s healing process and is one of the best ways to rid the body of chemicals and unwelcome visitors. The immune system weakens the hold of viruses and bacterial growth. Saunas induce an &#8220;artificial fever&#8221; by heating up the body but without the pains of an illness. Subsequently, the body wards off invading organisms much more easily because the immune system is activated consistently by the &#8220;artificial fever.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Reduce Stress: </strong>Heat therapy loosens the muscles and relaxes the body. Many massage therapists use heat to provide more thorough and effective treatment.</p>
<p><strong>Benefit to Skin:</strong> Heat improves circulation, expels dirt &amp; chemicals and removes dead cells on the surface of the skin. This leads to a more soft and clear complexion.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don&#8217;t let discomforts and disease rule your life. It’s a natural thing to resist change in our lives especially when we are set in our ways. We tend to keep on doing what we have always done until we can&#8217;t continue any more. For too many of us, this means that we are bound to become ill, and continue getting worse until we finally come to the realization that we must change our behavior, or remain sick till the day we die.  </p>
<p>How did we get to this place? One day at a time&#8230; If you want to see a different outcome, a change in the state of your health, you will have to change your lifestyle. As soon as you understand the Holistic Health paradigm you will realize that most diseases are preventable. True health is attained by ridding the body of toxins and pollutants. <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">Deep cleansing</a> of the <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a> is where it all begins. As it is said, death begins in the <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a>. So many of us concentrate on keeping our external bodies clean. We shower or bathe every day, wash our face and hands every day, shampoo our hair and brush our teeth every day, and yet the inside of our bodies are like cesspools. We just don&#8217;t focus on the inside of our bodies until we come down with a sickness or a disease.</p>
<p>So many of us in America today are sick and dying. We put our trust in the medical community and pharmaceutical drugs that have great side effects and are destroying our organs. There are so many natural alternatives that many do not want us to know about. Things such as herbs, vitamins, nutrients, even electrical frequencies. Things that are so inexpensive and easily obtainable for true health and wellness. It is your right to end the cycle of illness. When you take an active role in your health and wellness you are empowering yourself to overcome or prevent illnesses for which &#8220;there is no known cure&#8221;. That&#8217;s a lie promoted by the unholy alliance of pharmaceutical industry and big media companies. When your cellular terrain is in order, degenerative illness cannot take hold &#8211; it is like a fish out of water.</p>
<p>This blog will help you discover a True and Simple Way to Stay Healthy. </p>
<p>Your Diagnosis<br />
It is unlawful in most countries to offer a diagnosis of an illness without being a licensed physician. That legislation protects society from quackery, for the most part. Modern medicine has evolved dramatically in the last century, and diagnoses are usually highly accurate. Unfortunately, the chemical model of intervention that is applied to degenerative disease caused by cellular terrain conditions is usually ineffective and frequently harmful in the long run. </p>
<p>You may choose of your own free will to use any products or healing modalities you expect to help YOU, based on your own research.</p>

<p>Overview:<br />
<a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">Vitamin B3</a> is one of 8 B vitamins. It is also known as <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">niacin</a> (nicotinic acid) and has 2 other forms, niacinamide (nicotinamide) and inositol hexanicotinate, which have different effects from niacin. </p>
<p>All B vitamins help the body to convert food (carbohydrates) into fuel (glucose), which is &#8220;burned&#8221; to produce energy. These B vitamins, often referred to as B complex vitamins, also help the body metabolize fats and protein. B complex vitamins are necessary for healthy skin, hair, eyes, and liver. They also help the nervous system function properly. </p>
<p>Niacin also helps the body make various sex and stress-related hormones in the adrenal glands and other parts of the body. Niacin is effective in improving circulation and reducing cholesterol levels in the blood. </p>
<p>All the B vitamins are water-soluble, meaning that the body does not store them. </p>
<p>You can meet all of your body&#8217;s needs for B3 through diet; it is rare for anyone in the developed world to have a B3 deficiency. In the United States, alcoholism is the prime cause of <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">vitamin B3</a> deficiency. </p>
<p>Symptoms of mild deficiency include indigestion, fatigue, canker sores, vomiting, and depression. Severe deficiency can cause a condition known as pellagra. Pellagra is characterized by cracked, scaly skin, dementia, and diarrhea. It is generally treated with a nutritionally balanced diet and niacin supplements. Niacin deficiency also results in burning in the mouth and a swollen, bright red tongue. </p>
<p>Very high doses of B3 (available by prescription) have been shown to prevent or improve symptoms of the following conditions. However, taken at high doses niacin can be toxic, so you should take doses higher than the Recommended Daily Allowance only under your doctor&#8217;s supervision. Researchers are trying to determine if inositol hexanicotinate has similar benefits without serious side effects, but so far results are preliminary. </p>
<p>High Cholesterol<br />
Niacin (but not niacinamide) has been used since the 1950s to lower elevated LDL (&#8220;bad&#8221;) cholesterol and <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">triglyceride</a> (fat) levels in the blood and is more effective in increasing HDL (&#8220;good&#8221;) cholesterol levels than other cholesterol-lowering medications. However, side effects can be unpleasant and even dangerous. High doses of niacin cause flushing of the skin (which can be reduced by taking aspirin 30 minutes before the niacin), stomach upset (which usually subsides within a few weeks), headache, dizziness, and blurred vision. There is an increased risk of liver damage. A time-release form of niacin reduces flushing, but its long-term use is associated with liver damage. In addition, niacin can interact with other cholesterol-lowering drugs (see &#8220;Possible Interactions&#8221;). You should not take niacin at high doses without your doctor&#8217;s supervision. </p>
<p>Atherosclerosis<br />
Because niacin lowers LDL and triglycerides in the blood, it may help prevent atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and is sometimes prescribed along with other medications. However, niacin also increases levels of homocysteine levels in the blood, which is associated with an increased risk of heart disease. This is another reason you should not take high doses of niacin without your doctor&#8217;s supervision. </p>
<p>Diabetes<br />
Some evidence suggests that niacinamide (but not niacin) might help delay the onset of insulin dependence (in other words, delay the time that you would need to take insulin) in type 1 diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, the body&#8217;s immune system mistakenly attacks the cells in the pancreas that make insulin, eventually destroying them. Niacinamide may help protect those cells for a time, but more research is needed to tell for sure. </p>
<p>The effect of niacin on type 2 diabetes is more complicated. People with type 2 diabetes often have high levels of fats and cholesterol in the blood, and niacin, often in conjunction with other drugs, can lower those levels. However, niacin can also raise blood sugar levels, resulting in hyperglycemia, which is particularly dangerous for someone with diabetes. For that reason, anyone with diabetes should take niacin only when directed to do so by their doctor, and should be carefully monitored for hyperglycemia. </p>
<p>Osteoarthritis<br />
One preliminary study suggested that niacinamide may improve arthritis symptoms, including increasing joint mobility and reducing the amount of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) needed. More research is needed to determine whether there is any real benefit. </p>
<p>Alzheimer&#8217;s disease<br />
Population studies show that people who get higher levels of niacin in their diet have a lower risk of Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. No studies have evaluated niacin supplements, however. </p>
<p>Skin conditions<br />
Researchers are studying topical forms of niacin as treatments for acne, aging, and prevention of skin cancer, although it&#8217;s too early to know whether it is effective. </p>
<p>Dietary Sources:<br />
The best dietary sources of <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/niacin';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">vitamin B3</a> are found in beets, brewer&#8217;s yeast, beef liver, beef kidney, fish, salmon, swordfish, tuna, sunflower seeds, and peanuts. Bread and cereals are usually fortified with niacin. In addition, foods that contain tryptophan, an amino acid the body coverts into niacin, include poultry, red meat, eggs, and dairy products. </p>
<p>Available Forms:<br />
Vitamin B3 is available in several different supplement forms: niacinamide, niacin, and inositol hexaniacinate. Niacin is available as a tablet or capsule in both regular and timed-release forms. The timed-release tablets and capsules may have fewer side effects than regular niacin; however, the timed-release versions are more likely to cause liver damage. Regardless of which form of niacin you&#8217;re using, doctors recommend periodic liver function tests when using high doses (above 100 mg per day) of niacin. </p>
<p>How to Take It:<br />
Daily recommendations for niacin in the diet of healthy individuals are listed below. </p>
<p>Generally, high doses of niacin are used to control specific diseases, such as high cholesterol. Such high doses are considered &#8220;pharmacologic&#8221; and must be prescribed by a doctor, who will have you increase the amount of niacin slowly, over the course of 4 &#8211; 6 weeks, and take the medicine with meals to avoid stomach irritation. </p>
<p>Pediatric </p>
<p>Infants birth &#8211; 6 months: 2 mg (adequate intake)<br />
Infants 7 months &#8211; 1 year: 4 mg (adequate intake)<br />
Children 1- 3 years: 6 mg (RDA)<br />
Children 4 &#8211; 8 years: 8 mg (RDA)<br />
Children 9 &#8211; 13 years: 12 mg (RDA)<br />
Males 14 &#8211; 18 years: 16 mg (RDA)<br />
Females 14 &#8211; 18 years: 14 mg (RDA)<br />
Adult<br />
Males 19 years and older: 16 mg (RDA)<br />
Females 19 years and older: 14 mg (RDA)<br />
Pregnant females: 18 mg (RDA)<br />
Breastfeeding females: 17 mg (RDA)<br />
Precautions:<br />
Because of the potential for side effects and interactions with medications, you should take dietary supplements only under the supervision of a knowledgeable health care provider.<br />
High doses (50 mg or more) of niacin can cause side effects. The most common side effect is called &#8220;niacin flush,&#8221; which is a burning, tingling sensation in the face and chest, and red or &#8220;flushed&#8221; skin. Taking an aspirin 30 minutes prior to the niacin may help reduce this symptom. </p>
<p>At the very high doses used to lower cholesterol and treat other conditions, liver damage and stomach ulcers can occur. Your health care provider will periodically check your liver function through a blood test. </p>
<p>People with a history of liver disease or stomach ulcers should not take niacin supplements. Those with diabetes or gallbladder disease should do so only under the close supervision of their doctor. </p>
<p>Niacin should not be used if you have gout. </p>
<p>Taking any one of the B complex vitamins for a long period of time can result in an imbalance of other important B vitamins. For this reason, it is generally important to take a B complex vitamin with any single B vitamin. </p>
<p>Possible Interactions:<br />
If you are currently taking any of the following medications, you should not use niacin without first talking to your health care provider. </p>
<p>Antibiotics, Tetracycline &#8212; Niacin should not be taken at the same time as the antibiotic tetracycline because it interferes with the absorption and effectiveness of this medication. (All vitamin B complex supplements act in this way and should therefore be taken at different times from tetracycline.) </p>
<p>Aspirin &#8212; Taking aspirin before taking niacin may reduce flushing associated with this vitamin, but should only be done under your doctor&#8217;s supervision. </p>
<p>Anticoagulants (blood thinners) &#8212; Niacin may make the effects of these medications stronger, increasing the risk of bleeding. </p>
<p>Blood Pressure Medications, Alpha-blockers &#8212; Niacin can make the effects of medications taken to lower blood pressure stronger, leading to the risk of low blood pressure. </p>
<p>Cholesterol-lowering Medications &#8212; Niacin binds bile-acid sequestrants (cholesterol-lowering medications such as colestipol, colesevelam, and cholestyramine) and may decrease their effectiveness. For this reason, niacin and these medications should be taken at different times of the day. </p>
<p>Recent scientific evidence suggests that taking niacin with simvastatin (a drug that belongs to a class of cholesterol-lowering medications known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, or statins), appears to slow down the progression of heart disease. However, the combination may also increase the likelihood for serious side effects, such as muscle inflammation or liver damage. </p>
<p>Diabetes Medications &#8212; Niacin may increase blood glucose (sugar) levels. People taking insulin, metformin, glyburide, glipizide, or other medications used to treat high blood sugar levels should monitor their blood sugar levels closely when taking niacin supplements. Isoniazid (INH) &#8212; INH, a medication used to treat tuberculosis, may lower levels of niacin in the body and cause a deficiency. </p>
<p>Nicotine Patches &#8212; Using nicotine patches with niacin may worsen or increase the risk of flushing associated with niacin. </p>

<p>Listen to Your Body Signals </p>
<p>These signals are in the form of body symptoms. A slight deficiency and you will notice slight depression and lack of well-being. The body is telling you, help, I&#8217;m in trouble. Then you start getting headaches, pain in the lower back, stiff, tight muscles, particularly in the back. The body is telling you, I&#8217;m in worse trouble, help me! Now! </p>
<p>But you ignore these messages. You haven&#8217;t learned to read and decipher them. You seek professional advice and &#8230; Well, you know what they advise. </p>
<p>Time goes by and now you start getting muscle cramps, then calcium deposits, muscle twitches and tics, high blood pressure. You ignore it and don&#8217;t do anything about these signals. </p>
<p>You start to get nervous; you jump at sudden sounds. You are told that you are getting old, that you can expect this sort of thing. You now have trouble sleeping and continually wake up feeling tired. Your body goes into spasms (involuntary and abnormal muscular contractions) and jerks. Your body is calling out, you idiot, I need help now! </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t Ignore Warning Signals </p>
<p>You ignore these signals. Next, you find yourself with a chest pain, called angina. You ignore this also because no one else seems to know what is causing it. You never did learn how to take care of your own body and have always left it to the so-called experts. These experts don&#8217;t know either. </p>
<p>The next thing that happens is suddenly your heart starts racing. It goes out of rhythm. You don&#8217;t know what to do and neither does anyone else. Then one day, after working out hard physically or being under stress, you suddenly have a heart attack. Your body is telling you, I am in real trouble; I am almost at the end of the line. I need magnesium urgently and fast. NOW! The body is crying out for magnesium. It cannot function unless it has sufficient of this mineral. If you are lucky enough to be in an emergency room with a properly trained resident, he will inject magnesium sulfate into your body and you will probably survive. Which begs the question, WHY WAIT? </p>

<p>THE CAUSE &#8212; A TOXIC, POLLUTED, DISTORTED <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">COLON</a></p>
<p>The #1 health problem in America that doctors don&#8217;t tell you about, yet can easily be corrected resulting in miraculous healing and a flat stomach!</p>
<p>WE ALL NEED INTERNAL CLEANSING</p>
<p>A simple thing like cleansing and detoxifying the <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a> can produce miraculous benefits, eliminate so many health disorders, restore normal bowel movements, lose weight and shrink or eliminate a pot belly, producing a flat stomach!</p>
<p>A clean, unabused, nontoxic <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a> is essential towards a health life. Bowel movements, 2 to 3 a day are essential, yet so many barely go for days. A polluted colon practically invites cancer &#8212; in cancer, the colon is like a rotting sewer line.</p>
<p>Colon cleansing was an accepted medical practice 70 years ago, known to produce good health yet has been completely abandoned (no money in it) and replaced by drugs/surgery. Some therapists still effect true healing with colon detoxification.</p>
<p>THE MOST ABUSED ORGAN</p>
<p>In the 20th century we have introduced an avalanche of chemicals, pollutants and toxins into our food and body products that have disturbed the natural working order of the body and impaired functioning of vital organs!</p>
<p>We are born with a clean, unabused, uniform colon. But commercial processed food with foreign  substances unnatural to the body cause abnormalities that result in a colon becoming abused, obstructed and distorted.</p>
<p>THE CAUSE OF A POT BELLY &#8212; A POLLUTED, SAGGING COLON</p>
<p>Americans are plagued with pot bellies because the transverse colon that supports the stomach is sagging. The colon walls can be lined with layers of fecal matter imbedded in toxic <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">mucus</a> often the consistency of hard rubber. Blockage can be so severe, feces can barely pass through. Documented cases show this accumulated trash weighing up to 40 lbs.!</p>
<p>There is a direct correlation between the condition of the intestinal tract and functioning of the body. When the bowel fails to release all its waste toxemia occurs. A toxic liquid enters the bloodstream, organs, tissue, arteries, veins, lymph and cells. This autointoxication is at the root of so many diseases, illnesses and afflictions. Colon blockage also prevents nutrient absorption; vitamins and minerals barely get through no matter how much one takes.</p>
<p>The need to detoxify and <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cleanse the colon</a> has never been greater. So many are toxic-ridden and suffer from a host of problems of epic proportions.</p>
<p>THE MOST POWERFUL THING ONE MUST DO IS DETOXIFY AND <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">CLEANSE THE COLON</a></p>
<p>By eliminating encrusted fecal matter accumulated over years and stripping the <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">mucus</a> that is lining the colon, you remove a major contributor to disease. Fecal matter retention causes the lymphatic system to become congested. A toxic lymph is usually present during acute illness preventing white blood cells from fighting disease. The dominant symptom in many illnesses indicates an origin in the colon. </p>
<p><a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/parasitedetox" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/parasitedetox';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">Parasites</a>, <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/parasitedetox" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/parasitedetox';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">worms</a> and bad bacteria remain in the colon; they  thrive on pollution, filth, stagnant putrefactive matter.</p>
<p>The body can be like a walking garbage can carrying rotting matter in the colon for 5 years or more. But the bowel can again funtion efficiently for waste elimination and nutrient absorption, essential for good health and healing and allow friendly bacteria to return, safe from putrification. The solution is simple! </p>
<p>Thoroughly <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cleanse the colon</a> to remove all toxic debris and stop eating junk and processed foods with unnatural substances. The body will respond with amazing reversal to restore balance, peace,  harmony and a state of excellent health.</p>
<p>AMAZINGLY MANY LOSE 5 TO 25 LBS. AND POT BELLY SHRINKS</p>
<p>The saying &#8220;death begins in the colon&#8221; is true, then life begins again after colon cleansing. It&#8217;s actually frightening to see the poisons, junk, foreign substances and decaying fecal matter that the body has been holding onto for so many years.</p>

<p><strong>The #1 Health Problem in America that doctors don&#8217;t tell you about yet can easily be corrected resulting in miraculous healing and a flat stomach.</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>We all need internal cleansing</em></strong></p>
<p>A simple thing like cleansing and detoxifying the <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a> can produce miraculous benefits, eliminate so many health disorders, restore normal bowel movements, lose weight and <strong>shrink or eliminate a pot belly</strong> producing a flat stomach.  A clean, unabused, nontoxic <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/colonpills';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">colon</a> is essential towards a healthy life.  Bowel movements, 2 to 3 a day are essential, yet so many barely go for days.  <strong>A polluted colon practically invites cancer</strong> – in cancer, the colon is like a rotting sewer line. </p>
<p>Colon cleansing was an accepted medical practice 70 years ago, known to produce good health, yet has been completely abandoned and replaced by drugs and surgery.  Some therapists still effect true healing with colon detoxification.</p>
<p><strong><em>The most abused organ</em></strong></p>
<p>In the 20th century, we have introduced an avalanche of chemicals, pollutants and toxins into our food and body products that have <strong>disturbed the natural working order of the body and impaired functioning of vital organs.</strong>  We are born with a clean, unabused, uniform colon.  However, commercial processed food with foreign substances<strong> unnatural to the body</strong> cause abnormalities that result in a colon becoming abused, obstructed and distorted.</p>
<p><strong><em>The cause of a pot belly – a polluted, sagging colon</em></strong></p>
<p>Americans are plagued with pot bellies because the transverse colon that supports the stomach is sagging.  The colon walls an be lined with layers of fecal matter imbedded in toxic <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/mullzyme';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">mucus</a> often the consistency of hard rubber.  Blockage can be so severe that feces can barely pass through.  Documented cases show this accumulated trash weighing up to 40 lbs!</p>
<p><strong><em>There is a direct correlation between the condition of the intestinal tract and functioning of the body</em></strong></p>
<p>When the bowel fails to release all its waste, <strong>toxemia</strong> occurs.  A toxic liquid enters the bloodstream, organs, tissues, arteries, veins and cells.  This <strong>autointoxication</strong> is at the root of so many diseases, illnesses and afflictions.  Colon blockage also prevents nutrient absorption and vitamins and minerals barely get through no matter how much one takes.</p>
<p><strong>The need to detoxify and <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cleanse the colon</a> has never been greater.  So many people are toxic-ridden and suffer from a host of problems of epic proportions.</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>The most powerful thing one must do is detoxify and <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cleanse the colon</a></em></strong></p>

<p>The body can be like a walking garbage can carrying rotting matter in the colon for 5 years or more.  However, the bowel can again function efficiently for waste elimination and nutrient absorption which is essential for good health and healing and allow friendly bacteria to return, safe from putrification.  The solution is simple.  Thoroughly <a href="http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse" style="color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;color:#33CC00;text-decoration:underline;" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmouseover="self.status='http://thebreathoflife.net/learningcenter/recommends/coloncleanse';return true;" onmouseout="self.status=''">cleanse the colon</a> to remove all toxic debris and <strong>stop eating junk and processed foods with unnatural substances.</strong>  The body will respond with amazing reversal to restore balance, peace, harmony and a state of excellent health.  Many lose 5 to 25 pounds and the pot belly shrinks.</p>
<p>The saying <strong><em>death begins in the colon</em></strong> is true.  <strong><em>Life begins again</em></strong> after colon cleansing.  It is actually frightening to see the poisons, junk, foreign substances and decaying fecal matter that the body has been holding onto for so many years.</p>

In treating over 300,000 patients, it is the bowel that invariably has to be cared for before any healing can take place.”</td>

<p>As you can imagine, without magnesium your body is going to be performing at very much less than full capacity.  A deficiency in magnesium can go from slight to very severe and your body will be signaling to you that it is in trouble.</p>
<p><strong><em>What depletes magnesium?</em></strong></p>
<p>Aluminum in food and drink containers, baking powder and anti-perspirants blocks many normal magnesium functions.  Unfortunately, a staple of our society&#8217;s diet is white flour and 85% of its magnesium has been removed.  Our high consumption of fats and proteins inhibits magnesium absorption.  Environmental pollutants in air, soil and water, emotional stresses and many prescription drugs all aggravate magnesium depletion. </p>
<p>80% or more of the Unites States population is deficient in magnesium including many who take supplements regularly.  These people may still think that regular magnesium supplements will fix magnesium deficiency.  Unfortunately, this is not the case.  The stress of our modern lifestyle, whether chemical, environmental or mental, depletes magnesium reserves far more rapidly than was previously realized.</p>
<p>The following is a list of things which cause magnesium depletion:  mental stress, physical stress, coffee, sugar, high sodium diet, alcohol, cola type sodas, tobacco, high perspiration, medical drugs of all types, low thyroid, chronic pain, diuretics, a high carbohydrate diet and a high calcium diet.   The more dominant they are in your life, the more magnesium your body will need.  </p>
<p><strong>Calcium?</strong> Yes.  Excess calcium can become a real problem.  Excess magnesium, on the other hand, is impossible.  Excess calcium combined with low magnesium will create osteoporosis and fragile bones.</p>
<p><strong><em>Magnesium to Calcium Ratio</em></strong></p>
<p>The ratio between magnesium and calcium is very important when dealing with the cause and prevention of a number of disorders including cardiovascular health, heart disease and high blood pressure. The absorption and metabolism of magnesium depends upon calcium intake and vice versa.  Therefore, the balance between these two minerals is especially important.  In view of the overwhelming benefits of magnesium, the traditional ratio of approximately 2 parts calcium to 1 part magnesium needs to be revised.  The ideal ratio for most people&#8217;s needs is equal amounts of calcium and magnesium.  If calcium consumption is high, then magnesium intake also needs to be high.  Since calcium and magnesium depend on each other to be assimilated into your body, they should never be taken alone.  Milk has a ratio of about 8 calcium to 1 magnesium causing a problem with milk drinkers.  The high calcium intake can cause a magnesium deficiency which creates ill health.</p>
<p>Magnesium regulates the entrance and utilization of calcium in the cells.  Without magnesium, calcium remains in the body unused.  This will result in calcium deposits in the joints which aggravates arthritis, gallstones, kidney stones and in extreme cases, calcification of the brain and other body organs.  This, in turn, results in memory loss as well as the loss of ability to reason and eventually, the termination of life.  All of these conditions have frequently been known to disappear after taking extra magnesium.</p>
<p>Again, magnesium and calcium must be in the correct proportions.  Otherwise, the calcium becomes a pollutant in the body.  The rule is <strong>“never take calcium without magnesium.”</strong>  Calcium depends on magnesium for it to assimilate but magnesium does not require calcium in order to function.  In fact, in many cases, magnesium taken on its own without any calcium will help you feel more energetic, stronger and give you a multitude of other benefits as a result of the magnesium being present to do its job.</p>
<p><strong><em>Excess Calcium Can Cause Magnesium Deficiency</em></strong></p>
<p>America has the highest rate of milk consumption.  America has the highest consumption rate of calcium supplements.  Yet America has the highest occurrence of osteoporosis in the Western world. Taking more calcium will not fix a calcium deficiency which is quite evident from statistics.  Yet more magnesium will handle the calcium deficiency as well as the magnesium deficiency.</p>
<p>A magnesium deficiency can result in symptoms of internal stress, even when the person takes supplements, if they take more calcium than magnesium.  Extra magnesium can often mean the difference between a stressed body and a completely relaxed one.</p>
<p><strong><em>Listen to Your Body Signals</em></strong></p>
<p>These signals are in the form of body symptoms.  A slight deficiency and you will notice slight depression and lack of well being.  The body is telling you <strong>“help, I&#8217;m in trouble.”</strong>  You start getting headaches, pain in the lower back and stiff tight muscles, particularly in the back.  The body is telling you <strong>“I&#8217;m in worse trouble.  Help me now!”</strong></p>
<p>However, you ignore these messages.  You have not learned to read and decipher them.  You seek professional advice and&#8230;well, you know what they advise.</p>
<p><strong><em>Magnesium Supplementation is Necessary</em></strong></p>
<p>The recommended daily requirement of magnesium is impossible to obtain from food sources because our soils have been seriously depleted of this mineral by herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers.  Even at the risk of long term health, your body will draw magnesium out of storage in the bones to maintain levels required for health.</p>
<p>Many debilitating and life threatening diseases are associated with magnesium deficiencies such as heart problems, strokes, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, migraine headaches, asthma, premenstrual syndrome, attention deficit disorder, anorexia and bulimia, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, hypoglycemia and kidney disease.</p>
<p>Magnesium is a key essential nutrient.  It is necessary for every major process in your body such as digestion, protein synthesis, cellular energy production and glucose metabolism.  Magnesium is also needed for bone strength, muscle strength and heartbeat as well as the functioning of your nervous system.  Without these taking place efficiently, your body is in trouble.</p>

<p>Oral magnesium supplements are often ineffective and laxative at therapeutic levels requiring about a year to raise levels significantly.  Intravenous magnesium is the most rapid but most people do not like needles and it may be difficult to find a physician to prescribe them.  The simple, painless, no risk method is absorption of magnesium through your skin.</p>

<p>Add about 2 oz. Magnesium Oil or Gel to your daily bath and soak for at least 20 minutes. Let dry and do not rinse it off. After bathing or showering, apply to your skin anywhere, then let dry. Dilute with water, if desired. If you feel the need, you may rinse it off in the shower or bath. Your body will absorb the magnesium it needs.</p>
<p>As a daily foot soak, in a small basin, add enough Magnesium Oil, or dilute 50/50 with water, to cover the tops of your toes. Soak for 20-30 minutes. When used full strength, the Magnesium Oil may be reused as long as it stays clean. If desired, rinse feet after soaking and towel dry.</p>
<p>As a body spray, mix a solution of 50% Magnesium Oil with 50% water. Spray your entire body and air dry for best results. There is no need for additional washing or rinsing. However, once dried, the natural salts in the Magnesium Oil may be uncomfortable and rinsing is fine.</p>
