Why You Need Them & The Most Important Supplements I Take Everyday
I’m sure you have joked once or twice to your spouse or your children, “Do you think I’m made out of money?”
Yet the truth of the matter is if you fall into the hands of the wrong medical professionals, you are going to get financially milked, like a cow.
In fact, I have joked over the years about the nature of the farmer-ceutical industry: it’s designed to harvest sick people and sell them treatments for profit! You are worth a LOT of money to them, so they don’t want you discovering natural ways to stay healthy!
Doctors fall in with the master plan of the drug cartels. As well-meaning as they might be, most doctors simply cannot accept that natural remedies – many of which have been around for millennia – have been proven to help prevent heart attacks, strokes and countless other diseases.
Here’s the real truth: People who take supplements spend much less money on hospital bills and other medical expenses.
A recent study has made this abundantly clear. The report estimates that overall medical costs in America alone would drop by nearly $11 BILLION A YEAR just by giving supplements to people at risk of various medical conditions.1
The study, funded by the Council for Responsible Nutrition, concluded that:
If every cardio patient in the U.S. over the age of 55 took omega-3s and vitamins B6, B12 and B9 (folic acid) supplements, the chances of ending up in a hospital were radically reduced and the combined health-cost savings would be more than $1 billion a year.
If all U.S. cardio-diabetic patients over 55 in the U.S took a chromium supplement, the total combined savings in health costs would be $970 million a year.
If all Americans over 55 with age-related eye diseases took the potent antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin, the estimated combined savings would be $967 million a year in medical costs.
Multiply that by all the countries around the world and you will see there literally trillions of unnecessary spending on health care. No wonder Big Medicine has recently launched a campaign to bring natural supplements under regulatory control, so they can get rid of them. They don’t like competition!
Well, I know how to beat them at their game!
Do I Have to Take Handfuls of Pills Every Day?
You’ve probably seen so-called “health fanatics” taking ghastly handfuls of pills and capsules every day and thought: “If that’s the price of health, I’d rather take my chance,” right?
You may have read that Suzanne Sommers takes 60 pills a day (plus hormones and vaginal creams).
She still looks good but that’s a lot for anyone to take. She’s covering every base. A simpler (and healthier) strategy is to get 80% of the benefits with just 20% of the intake. Sound good?
Plus, you may be worried about safety issues. You will read things like taking 400 international units (IU) of vitamin E a day for several years, led to a 17% increase in prostate cancer in men. But, that’s actually false reporting (typical of Big Pharma science): a separate group of men in the study who took both selenium and vitamin E showed no significantly increased risk for prostate cancer.
It’s important to examine the effects of vitamins and minerals together, not in isolation, because they may work synergistically to confer health benefits.
That’s why advice from an expert, who isn’t trying to sell you anything, can be so helpful.
So What Are You Going To Do?
I’ve selected 5 all-natural most important supplements, that are going to help you increase your longevity and well being.
Do what I tell you and it could be worth an extra 20 years of active, vibrant living.
In fact, what I’m about to tell you is so important I recommend you forward this email to a friend and if they haven’t signed up for my newsletter, they can click this link to get my newsletter for free.
Note: no formulation is perfect. These are the best around but I’d tweak each of them just a little, if they were my products.
Crucial Supplement #1: Passion 4 Life Liquid Vitamins and Minerals
I personally take this #1 product every day. I’m 70 years old but feel like I did 30 years ago! Passion 4 Life formula is easy to swallow, tastes good, and out-performs handfuls of supplements. Because this is a liquid, it is readily absorbed and brain scans show active uptake and benefits to the brain within minutes of taking your dose!
The price will surprise you too; with monthly autoship, it’s one of the best value supplements around (contains known anti-cancer mineral selenium, 100 mcg).
You can click the link and order directly from Passion 4 Life.
Crucial Supplement #2: Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids
The number one silent killer and the cause of almost all diseases is inflammation. It damages tissues and ages us fast.
That’s a shame because you can easily “cool off” inflammation with this class of nutrient. Omega-3s are probably the #1 anti-inflammatory substance we can dose on. Omega-3s reduce your chances of a heart attack and stroke, and they regulate your triglyceride levels much better than statins. Among their other benefits, they reduce the risk of cancers in the colon, breast and prostate.2
Omega-3s are plentiful and easy to swallow (no fishy taste) if you take it as capsules.
Take 60 mg. of the EPA form and 500 mg. of the DHA form. Make sure you get them from a combination of squid oil and krill oil, because these sources are less polluted than fish oil.
The formulation I recommend is Dr. Sears Omega Rejuvenol, which contains some useful extra vitamin A, vitamin D3 and valuable astaxanthin as well as vital omega-3s.
Crucial Supplement #3: Magnesium Oil Spray
This is another one I take daily.
Magnesium is one of the most essential nutrients in our bodies. It plays an important role in over 300 enzymatic reactions within the body including the metabolism of food and synthesis of fatty acids and proteins. Magnesium is involved in neuromuscular transmission and activity and muscle relaxation.
Magnesium deficiency, especially prevalent in older populations, is linked to insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, coronary heart disease and osteoporosis.
You must ensure you have adequate magnesium intake. Spraying magnesium oil on your skin is a ridiculously cheap way to stay healthy!
Dr. Barbara Hendel’s Magnesium Oil Spray is mined from the deep underground at the site of the ancient Zechstein Sea in The Netherlands. It’s non-greasy and absorbs rapidly leaving little residue and no unpleasant scent. Magnesium Oil is not actually an oil, it just feels like it! This nutrient product consists of a supersaturated solution of magnesium chloride and pure water. You rub it in your skin till it disappears.
You can buy Dr. Barbara Hendel’s Magnesium Oil directly on Amazon or from Swanson Vitamins.
Crucial Nutrient #4: The Glucose Tolerance Factor
Diabetes is now the fastest growing disease in the world, doubling every few years, and is a global public health crisis that threatens the economies of all nations, particularly developing countries.
I have often remarked that diabetes is really like accelerated aging. Everything that can go wrong as you age happens faster when you have uncontrolled diabetes. The sad thing is that even bringing your blood glucose and A1c (HbA1c) levels to normal does not protect you from this scourge! Do not get diabetes.
The cause is, quite simply, our bad diets, loaded with refined sugar and carbohydrates. The cure is equally simple: eat better, avoiding all sweetened, manufactured and refined foods.
But there is one vital mineral that the world needs today, to help hold back the tide of diabetes and that is chromium. It’s been nicknamed “The Glucose Tolerance Factor” because it helps regulate glucose metabolism. Without it, the body has a struggle to prevent obesity and avoid diabetes from ruining your arteries, skin, eyes and joints.
You need: 400 mcg of chromium, either as the polynicotinate or niacin-bound chromium.
Get chromium polynicotinate by Solgar directly from Amazon.
Take 1 200-mcg capsules daily but if you also take Passion 4 Life (it already contains 200 mcg).
Crucial Nutrient #5: Look After Your Eyes
Your eyes need high concentrations of two crucial substances: Lutein and Zeaxanthin.
Lutein protects the retina against sun damage. Zeaxanthin protects the retina from damaging byproducts created during common biochemical reactions. Together, they help ward off many age-related eye diseases, including macular degeneration.
Thing is, these two substances are found in abundance in the yolks of organic, free-range eggs. But since eggs got a bad rap, due to the anti-cholesterol folly, most people ended up deficient. The result is a huge rise in macular degeneration as the population ages.
You don’t want to grow old blind. Look after your eyes now. Eat yellow egg yolks from free-range or pastured chickens raised outdoors (not pale synthetic yolks and remember egg whites are definitely NOT healthy, whatever the popular perception is).
Dose I recommend: Lutein 20 mg. and Zeaxanthin 1 mg.
You can buy Swanson Ultra Synergistic Eye Form Lutein & Zeaxanthin directly from Amazon.
Remember all good health measures are anti-ageing!
Sugar is particularly deadly for brain function. Ronald Reagan’s notorious sweet tooth may have led to his Alzheimer’s. Also bad are excess alcohol, tobacco, and stress. Take exercise, the most important supplements I’ve mentioned above regularly, and you can create your own personal anti-aging regime.
