As always Lorna Vanderhaeghe never disappoints.  Right now her GLA Skin Oil is in the Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus Flyer.  This is a must product.

  • Improves calcium retention in bones
  • Treats eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis
  • Stops breast and period pain
  • Stops cradle cap and dermatitis in infants
  • Can also be applied topically along with oral treatment

GLA is a ” Very” Essential Fat! As many of us know, unfortunately the North American diet is made up predominantly of bad fats from red meats and processed foods. To make matters worse when an enzyme in the body is impaired we can’t make the good fats GLA, EPA or DHA. We can overcome this problem by supplementation with L.V. GLA (gamma linolenic acid).  What to expect from this product: Ensures beautiful, smooth, glowing skin, Improves calcium retention in bones, Treats eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis, Stops breast and period pain, Stops cradle cap and dermatitis in infants. Women are always looking for something to ease PMS symptoms, GLA can help! In many women with breast pain and terrible PMS their ability to make GLA is often impaired. One trial done at the breast clinic at the University of Hong Kong used GLA for the treatment of cyclical breast pain. Of the 66 women in the study 97% responded to treatment with GLA after 6 months.  Bye bye cramps, hello beautiful healthy skin!

EACH TEASPOON CONTAINS:         GLA ……………………………………………. 500mg

Alive Health Centre Flyer – Anti-Ageing

Categories: Alive Brand, Anti-Ageing, Antioxidants, Energy, Enzymes, FLYER SALE!, Hot products, Immune System, Mental Well Being, Savings At Alive!, Wrinkles

ASK ALICE, is the column that always is featured on the front page of the flyer.  This flyer is all about Anti-Ageing and here is what Alice Chung the owner of Alive Health Centre and Chains has to say!

Anti-Ageing – What does this mean to YOU?

 

Someone once told me bluntly: “The bad news is, we are all going to die one day, but the good news is we have a choice of how to live the years we spend on this earth.” So the next time someone splashes the words Anti – Ageing in front of you, think about what it means to you? For some it is: to regain well-being and vitality, to optimize the body’s ability to defend against pathogens and to help protect against the ageing process. A common argument is that we are all going to age and that it is inevitable; an attitude conveying “why bother”. It is true, we are all going to get old, BUT it is the quality of life that we are striving for. You can live 90 years, but of those 90 years don’t you want to be functional, walking around, telling stories and laughing? That is why my team at Alive Health Centres + chains and I are whole heartedly committed to changing the world through healthy living. We strive to prevent signs of accelerated ageing such as premature memory loss, pains, frequent infections, persistent fatigue, digestion problems and age related illnesses.  How can this be achieved?  It takes more than just exercise and healthy eating, it takes vitamins and one of my favourite essential supplements is Royal Jelly because it is truly one of the most all encompassing nutrients out there. While it appears costly, the abundance of health benefits makes the Alive Brand Royal Jelly PRICELESS! I often kid that Royal Jelly is part of my health insurance.  In all seriousness, it is working for me every day by protecting my body’s cells from free radicals, allowing the brain to focus, keeping healthy skin, hair and nails, protecting my immune system, providing me with antibacterial properties and countless other functions. Now when you hear the words Anti-Ageing remember it is more than banishing that stubborn wrinkle, but rather preventing more serious health issues that can get in the way of living. Remember, LIFE is the most important thing and together we can make the most of it…

 

As always, thank you for reading!  We look forward to helping you at a location near you! Also, we are happy to help you with processing a mail order.  Call us toll free at 1 866-499-9546

Take a “Time Out” This Summer: Mental Well Being

Categories: Mental Well Being, Quick Tips, Stress

We tend to focus on eating right as well as our physical well-being.  While these are most definitely important we cannot neglect our mental well-being.  People often do not know how to slow down or how to take a moment to be in the moment. Some people have never heard of mental well-being and perhaps npw is the time to give it a try!  Summer is an excellent time to get on the right track for your mental well being journey.  Most of us claim to be too busy to take “time out” for ourselves and that it is just another thing to remember to do! BUT to be mindful of your mental well-being is no joke.  Without peace, calmness and serenity people quickly become stress balls, which as we all know stress is the cause of a lot of our diseases today.

Why try starting a mental well-being regime in the summer?

  • The days are longer, therefore you will feel like you have more hours in the day to incorporate time for yourself.
  • More day light hours usually translates into happier people because you are able to get more Vitamin D, if you are feeling happier you are more likely to have the desire to try something new as well as stick with it.
  • In a lot of cases people tend to be on holidays in the summer therefore you will feel more relaxed to start a new regime, once you get a good hold of what works for you, you will be more likely to follow through in the the fall and winter with your mental well-being routine

What can you do to help your mental state?

  • You can always try yoga which will focus on mental and still your physical well-being.
  • Meditation can be simple.  Don’t start with high expectations.  Start small and work your way up.  It can be something as simple as thinking about positive thoughts for 5 minutes a day.  This can greatly put things in perspective for you.  Repeating positive thoughts for 5 minutes in the morning sets you up for a productive day.  When people say they do not have time for this, I say try setting your alarm clock 5 minutes earlier.
  • Try to lay down flat on your back while listening to relaxing music.  Start by relaxing your eyes, your nose, your checks, your ears and basically you work from head all the way to your toes, by really focusing on your body and nothing else.
  • Be mindful all day long.  What does this mean?  This means look after yourself and your mental state all day long.  Stress that you can cut out right away is stop “people pleasing”.  People pleasing really messes with your mental state and can actually become quite dangerous to your body.  Stay true to yourself! When we think of toxins, we often think of doing a cleanse to clean out all of the bad foods we have been eating, but never underestimate the power of toxic relationships!  Get rid of them!  We must always respect one another, but you do not have to make it your mission to love everyone and spend time with everyone that walks into your life.  Set boundaries and learn how to say “no”.  You can say things politely and with respect.  Just remember, if you do not take care of yourself, no one else will… this especially rings true for your mental well-being.  No one can read your mind and make all your stresses go away, only YOU can.
  • You can try finding solace in spirituality.  It does not have to be religious based.  Find what ever works for you.
  • Take a bath! Soak your feet or just take a walk.
  • If you really truly feel bummed out there are safe and natural supplements that can definitely help.  Fish oil with a high concentration of DHA essential fatty acid, vitamin D, a good quality multi can also do wonders!

Lastly, taking time to smell the flowers is never a waste of time.  Repeat this over in your head three times. Life is a beautiful thing and while working hard is a wonderful trait to have there has to be a balance.  It may not seem like it right now, but it catches up with us.  I myself love to work and I love seeing the hard work pay off, but I notice how the quality of my work goes up when I take time for myself.  At the end of the day there is no recipe for how to nurture your mental state, so just do what is best for you!  As always we thank you for reading and we look forward to helping you at a location near you!
