Beat Hair Loss With Alive Vegital Silica

Categories: Hair Loss

BEFORE Shannon Chung Spring 2008: Hair Loss

In an earlier article I provided a regime on how to combat hair loss.  The following is a link to my previous article on http://www.alivehealthblog.com/category/hair-loss/ The article covered all of things we can do to prevent hair loss, or get hair back once it has been lost.  One of the key supplements when dealing with hair loss is Vegital Silica.  I have been taking Alive Vegital Silica for about a year and a half for my hair, skin, nails and bones.  I have seen a tremendous difference and people that know me cannot believe the change in my hair!  It is always improving, but I thought I would post a before and after picture so you can see for youself.  Not only did I experience dramitic hair loss, the little hair that I did have was incredibly thin and broken.  I could not wear a head band or a hair clip of any kind at one point; it would just fall out. 

AFTER Shannon Chung Fall 2009: Hair Growing Back Using Alive Vegital Silica

So how much should you take?  For severe hair loss take 4 capsules of Alive Vegital Silica everyday; 2 after breakfast and 2 after dinner.  On average people see results in about three to six months.  Also I was doing other things like ensuring my protein intake was sufficient as well as using Shen Min Topical Hair Solution.  I massage Shen Min into my scalp every night.  Also I make sure that I do not use any harsh chemicals in my hair.  I use Herbal Glo Thinning Hair Shampoo and i try to avoid any hair product like hair spray.  Internal is the first and best thing you can do for stopping hair loss.   Don’t forget that this is not a miracle, you have to make taking your supplements a high priority.  Think of it as important as brushing your teeth.  Once you start seeing the results you will be so happy.

As always we hope we see you soon!  We would love to help you with your hair. No one wants to live with hair loss if they don’t have to.  There are many ways to combat hair loss, again read the previous article on hair loss for a solid regime.  The link is posted above.  Alive Vegital Silica is only available at Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun or Supplements Plus.  We have had this high quality silica for years and it has helped many customers over the years.  The key is to remember to take it everyday morning and night.  Remember, Vegital Silica is not only important for your hair, skin and nails, it is also vital for your bones!  When taken correctly, it has been shown to repair little tiny fractures in the bone.  When you are continuously repairing your skelatal system, it makes it even harder for you to break a bone if you were to fall.  A long time customer of ours who is in her 70’s told us she has been taking our Vegital Silica for years.  One day she fell and she went to the doctor to make sure everything was okay and the doctor was surprised that she didn’t break anything at her age! 

Happy New Year!  Here’s to Health and Happiness!  See you soon.

Leaf Source – Nature’s Health Enhancer

Categories: Hair Loss, Hot products, Supplements

If you have tried everything for your joints and the pain always seems to linger, Leaf Source is for you.  If you have tried everything for energy and nothing quite hits the spot, Leaf Source is for you.  If your immune system seems to be down no matter what and you are worried about the HINI virus, then definately give Leaf Source a try. 

Leaf SourceIn a nutshell, Leaf Source helps with:

  • Arthritic pain, joint problems
  • Inhibiting viral activity
  • Inflammation
  • Bone loss
  • Immune balancing
  • Fatigue
  • Nutrient absorption
  • Increased alkalinity

It can be overwhelming trying to dicipher which products to use.  Leaf Source is honestly one of those products that is truly amazing and really works.  It is 100% organic, vegetarian and it can be taken with any supplements that you are already using.  If you are on any medications, you just need to take it two hours apart.  Leaf Source has over 10 years of scientific research to show its usefullness in conquering pain, balancing your immune system as well as increasing your energy! 

What is Leaf Source?  It is derived from a sea bed deposit dated at over 100 million years.  It is found in New Mexico where there is organic mineral composite from fossilized tropical vegetation.  This means that it contains humic and fulvic acids, proteins, macro and micronutrients, organic carbon compounds, plant hormones, and enzymes. 

You may have noticed that the wording above says, (Leaf Source balances the immune system).  The word balance is extremely key.  While many people need to boost the immune system there are many people with auto immune disorders such as arthritis and they want exactly the opposite.  Their immune systems are over active and they need to be very wary before taking supplements that could boost their immune system.  Therefore, it is important to note that Leaf Source is auto immune friendly because it balances the immune system only. 

Leaf Source also enhances the absorption of the nutrients you are consuming.  For example, if you suffer from joint pain you can take your glucosamine with Leaf Source.  People are taking Leaf Source with their calcium, multivitamin, silica as well as other supplements and they are really noticing the difference. 

I would encourage everyone to take Leaf Source because there are no side effects, there are no complications when taking it with other supplements.  If you are taking prescriptions or over the counter medications it is always advised that you take natural supplements at least two hours apart from medications, but other than this Leaf Source is for everyone.  There has been such positive results, for example, one lady had been suffering with shingles and could not find anything that would help, and she found Leaf Source to be the difference.  I also take this product with my hair loss supplements and my multi vitamin.  I have noticed my hair and nails getting stronger as well.  I know others have seen this as well, but it is really encouraging when you see the results for yourself.  I have also seen my energy increase, and this has helped me wake up a little earlier to do the things I need to do like, exercise and make my lunch in the morning. 

Leaf Source is always at Alive Health Centre and right now it is on special for $25.99 and when you buy 2 you get 5% off, or when you buy 6 bottles you get 1 FREE.  As always feel free to come into Alive at the Oakrdige location for more information I am always happy to help you with your health.

Hair Loss Solutions

Categories: Hair Loss

Both men and women experience hair loss for many different reasons. It can be from a lack of nutrients, hormonal changes, stress or vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Of course it can be from a combination of the items listed as well. There are safe and natural ways we can fix the problem of hair loss.

Hair LossFirst of all diet and physical activity is the place to start. Take a look at what your typical day looks like. Are you starting out with a healthy breakfast? Furthermore are you making sure you wake up in time to even have your breakfast? Almost 50% of people in North America skip their breakfast. Not only is this contributing to hair loss, it also creates problems for your metabolism and achieving weight loss. Your body will go into starvation mode and want to hold onto your body fat. A healthy breakfast would consist of the following choices: whole grain cereal, sprouted grain toast, green tea, eggs, oatmeal, or better yet a smoothie. A smoothie is one of the better choices because you can get a good quality isolate protein (PVL brand), greens such as chlorella and spirulina (Progressive, or Sequal Brand), soluble and insoluble fibre (Fibre Smart Renew Life Brand), B vitamins (B-Complex Alive or Prairie Naturals Brand) and your omega oils (3-6-9 Udo’s Brand) all at one time!

Your scalp lives in protein, therefore having protein at every meal is essential for healthy hair as well as your muscles. Keep in mind that there are sources other than having red meat at ever meal, for example Vega is a natural vegetarian source. This superior clean product uses pea, hemp, brown rice and other vegan sources. Also you can get your protein from, a whey protein, lean chicken breast or even your legumes.

Next we will move onto stress. Most of us are dealing with stresses, some positive and some negative. Regardless of what kind, your body can feel it and ultimately show it through hair loss and other more serious conditions or diseases. So first and foremost try to eliminate negative stress where ever you can and then supplement your diet with a B-Complex. Above the liquid B-Complex was suggested by Prairie Naturals. For those of you who are not fond of liquids, Alive has an excellent B-Complex that comes in either capsule, or tablet.

The other deficiency that is apparent with people who experience hair loss is silica. Alive has excellent silica that is in capsule form. When I was in University I experienced a lot of hair loss and the silica was a huge part of my daily supplement intake. I took two capsules after my breakfast and two capsules after my dinner. I did this for 4 months. Now I take two after my breakfast and one after my dinner.

Lastly, how long until you will see results? Remember supplements are not magic pills, they definitely help you but they take time and it is different for each individual. They also depend on your diet and exercise. On average people see a difference in about three months. This gives you time to see the new hair growth. You will see that the new hair grows in is thicker and that the amount of hair strands will increase.

Remember, if you have any further questions you can always come into the Oakridge Alive where myself or other Alive associates can give you more information to suite your individual needs.
