Supergreens Green Drink

You have to eat a list of alkaline foods if you want to be healthy. Our body can serve us well if we really take care of it. Eating junk food and dead foods can put a strain in your health. If you value your health then eat a good list of alkaline foods.

Let me tell you something about our body.

Our body has a chemical balance that we have to keep. That balance depends on our food intake. If we take in dead food and junk foods, we will get sick no matter how much we exercise. The only way we can combat acidity imbalance in the body is to try a great alkaline diet system.

Here are a few tips we can fight acidity.

1. Incorporate vegetables and fruits in your diet. There is no wonder about the healing properties of vegetables and fruits. Not only are they delicious, they are also nutritious.

Vegetables and fruits will help fill your diet with essential vitamins and minerals. All this will give you reserve energy that you never thought you have.

2. If you have time - exercise. If you don't have the time - make the time to exercise. Exercising is very important to the body. A sedentary lifestyle may be comfortable, but you will be unhealthy. Not only that, you will also suffer poor muscle build up that can lead to injuries.

Be sure to consult a doctor before you engage in any exercise regimen.

3. Change your lifestyle bit by bit. You don't have to change your lifestyle significantly. All you need to do is take a closer look at your diet. Substitute nutritional foods and replace the dead foods that you are used to. Try and follow a list of alkaline foods. Alkaline foods can help your body balance its inner structure.

You can still drink a bottle or two if you are on an alkaline diet. The promise is that this diet will never interfere with your lifestyle. You can eat a list of alkaline foods and you will crave alkaline foods. This diet is unlike other diets that need strict discipline.

Yo-yo diets need so much more of your attention and time. Eating from a selected a list of alkaline foods is a snap. Just follow the alkaline list and the alkaline chart and you will be on your way to a healthy and balanced diet.

The Top 7 Guiding Principles to Extraordinary Weight Loss in 7 Days

By Dawn Sanders

Apr 26, 2007

We, The Detox Diet Divas, Scrub the cells of our body to uncover the vital, lean, happy, joyful being we were designed to be! That’s right: scrubbing, cleaning – detoxifying from the inside out and the outside in. Getting the junk out.

You may be thinking… why do we want to focus on cleansing and detoxifying at a cellular level? What does that have to do with weight loss?!

The Diva’s Answer: Cellular health has been the missing link in zillions of diets on the market, and cleansing your cells will not only melt away the pounds but will also give energy, clarity, emotional balance, and vitality which you may not have experienced since infancy.

When our precious cells and internal fluids are acidic from eating too much sugar, refined and processed foods, coffee, tea, alcohol, etc., etc., etc, they just aren’t functioning at top performance by any means. Your blood is fighting and working like a crazy lady to maintain a clean, balanced environment. As a matter of fact, blood must preserve a healthy balanced internal pH of 7.3 (pH is measured from 0-14, 7 being neutral – below 7 is acidic and above 7 is alkaline).

The KEY as revealed by Dr. Robert Young, in the pH Miracle for Weight Loss: When the cells (which make up the blood) are overly acidic, the blood will do anything it can to balance. It will do so by stuffing the acidic waste in fat cells! The body actually creates fat cells to carry acids away from your vital organ, so these acids don’t literally choke your organs to death. Fat is a response from the body to an alarming condition of acidosis. FAT IS SAVING YOUR LIFE!

So how do Diva’s rejuvenate their cells for weight loss and radiant living?

There are 7 Guiding Principles of the DETOX DIET DIVAS. These principles take in to consideration all aspects of your life. This is a program for living so it will encompass much more than what you consume. Let’s get started:

1. Drink Water - You know this one right? - Lots of water! 1 liter per 30 lbs. of your body weight. But did you know this? You need to drink clean, purified, ALKALINE water. There are many ways to alkalize water, but the simplest is by adding a teaspoon of baking soda to a 16 ounce glass of water and then add lemons. (Yes, lemons are alkalizing.)

2. Sweat - with low impact exercise. Great possibilities are one or more of the following: elliptical machines, rebounders, a fast paced walk, biking, swimming, or the latest . The key here Diva’s is to sweat, sweat, sweat! Acidic overload is removed from the body when we perspire.

3. Consume Alkaline Foods – 80% of your diet should be alkaline-based. What is alkaline? Green Foods: foods that have life and oxygen like spinach, cucumbers, lettuce, grapefruit, lemon, almonds (raw), and coconut milk. I have a detailed list available at www.detoxdietdivas.com. And you’re going to have to let go of those highly acidic foods that are keeping those acid fat cells happy. These include: Coffee, Black Tea, Alcohol, sugar (or anything ending in “ose” like fructose), honey and agave (although Stevia is okay), white flour, and any processed foods. We want to rejuvenate our cells by eating foods that are rich in energy and nutrients.

4. Reduce Stress – Most Diva’s love these options: Yoga, Meditation, Deep Breathing Exercises, Tai Chi and other martial arts, reading, sitting by a stream…. The possibilities are endless and wonderful to imagine!

5. Positive SELF-TALK – The words we speak and think have tremendous power in impacting the acidity of your cellular makeup. When you speak in positive, loving and uplifting ways, the pH of your cells take a huge leap forward toward Alkalinity. Think before you speak.

6. Take Nutritional Supplements and include a high quality SUPERGREEN -- You’ll give your body a huge helping hand if you’ll supplement the nourishment of your cells with vital concentrated nutrients found in SuperGreens and mineral supplements that alkalize the cellular fluids with sodium bicarbonate, potassium, magnesium, and calcium.

7. Use the power of VISUALIZATION – Envision yourself right now as that lean, radiant Diva you are. See yourself having attained the weight and the extraordinary life you desire. The power of visualization is HUGE!

Look at how you can incorporate these changes little by little into all aspects of your daily living. Before you eat anything ask yourself “is this going to help my cells or hurt my cells.”. If you are upset about anything, instead of reacting, take a long deep breath in, then exhale slowly, and just let it go. You will be giving your magnificent cellular makeup a tremendous gift. If you want help, I’m available for individual consultations.

Utmost threat to the human civilization is polluted environment. The challenge extends to maintaining our body basics, which faces continuous threats and creates negative impacts to human health conditions. The major threat is toxin accumulation at colon, as the rectification is next to impossible. Naturally, the colon is our digestive system and carries the body wastes. The old saying prevention is better than cure, still prevails. Medical Science recommends colon detox as a means for cleansing the system against waste elimination, which is rather difficult in nature. For a healthy and full filling experience, cleaning plays a very important role.

The colon related medical issues are on all time high. The notable causes for these issues are, ignoring exercise routine, fast food affinity, less vegetable and fruits intake, high sugar intake, work stress etc. Be it at home or at work, our body is exposed to the environment and its reactions. General day-to-day problems such as constipation may root Diverticula, a type of herniations that extend beyond the colon wall. The colon bags are filled with toxic junks, which in turn get absorbed back into blood vessels. These waste material ills the body and cause major energy deficiency, sickness, weakness and other supplementary diseases.

A non-maintained bowel holds a high volume of toxic elements. This adds up to swelling at lower extremities and unnatural weight gain. A proper cleansing of colon may help in managed weight loss after the toxic elements leaves the body. A systematically managed colon should be treated as one of the high priority requirement of our body. Once the toxins are taken out from the system it doesn't come back to the body. A hygienic colon brings all very positive effect on mind. You can combat depression and always feel energetic. You can experience the life in a better way. Eliminating body waste also helps in minimizing the chances for body aches and joint pains. The toxins generated from the body waste are also responsible for untimely headaches. Colon cleansing a better skin face glow and better look.

Educating ourselves on the colon detox may help us living a healthier life and cope better with the environmental changes that may affect our body. Doctors may help us understanding the pollution level which impact on the liver, kidneys or the colon. For us it would really be a surprise to know what level of waste we're carrying with us. A properly clean colon should stimulate the colon. The detoxification process removes accumulated toxins from the colon. Body hydration is an important process for cleansing which maintains the adequate water level. Apart from that sufficient oxygen for healthy healing and better energy level is essential for colon movement. Some other additional benefits of colon cleansing are clear skin, increased energy levels, improved level of constipation, overall healthful feeling and absorption of vitamins and minerals from food in a better way. So from the above facts we can guess the importance of colon cleansing detox.

The pH level (the acid-alkaline measurement) of the internal environment affects every cell in the body. Extended acid imbalances as well as an imbalanced body pH are not well tolerated by it.

The Entire Metabolic Process Depends On An Alkaline Environment

As a matter of fact, the entire metabolic process depends on a balanced internal alkaline environment. A chronically over-acidic pH corrodes body tissue, slowly eating into the 60,000 miles of veins and arteries like acid eating into marble. If left unchecked, it will interrupt all cellular activities and functions, from the beating of the heart to the neural firing of the brain.

Above all, the acid-alkaline balance is a well known theory of the cause of overweight. It has shown that fat is actually an over-acidification problem. Why? Because the body creates fat cells to carry acids away from vital organs, so these acids literally don't choke the organs to death. Fat is saving life! Fat is actually a response from the body to an alarming over-acidic condition.

The 4 Rules Of New Levels Of Health, Wellness And Energy

The solution is to alkalize and energize the body and its cell system. Changing to an alkaline lifestyle can result in a lean, trim body, while experiencing a new level of wellness, energy and fitness. These rules guide on how to become healthy, well balanced and fit again.

1. More Green and Yellow Vegetables and Grasses: Fresh vegetables and grasses are an excellent source of the alkaline salts that are anti-yeast, anti-fungal, and anti-mycotoxic. The chlorophyll (or "blood of the plant") contained in plants and grasses is identical to the blood of humans, except for one atom. Green foods such as wheat grass and barley grass are some of the lowest-calorie, lowest-sugar, and most nutrient-rich foods on the planet. Also juiced, green vegetables are very cleansing. Vegetables and grasses are also loaded with fiber.

2. More Healthy (and NOT animal) Proteins: Broccoli, spinach, sprouts, garbanzo beans, tofu or fresh fish with scales and fins carry the sub-cellular units and the amino acids to make proteins in amounts that are congruent with the body's needs. Also, all green vegetables are high in calcium. Animal protein foods are unhealthy and provide more protein than is required by the human body. Our bodies are only 7 % protein. Animal protein foods often contribute factors to the body that are unneeded and then represent a challenge to dispose of (e.g., saturated fats).

3. More Alkaline Green Food Supplements: In case one shouldn't be able to completely change the diet to green and alkaline food, taking powdered alkaline supplements sprouted for maximum cell absorption is an option, like, for instance Supergreens. With powdered greens the need to constantly eat healthy vegetables and greens disappears. Taking alkalizing, pH balancing and highly energizing SuperGreens is an easy way of adding 49 different grasses, vegetables, sprouted grains and leaves, as well as 125 vitamins, minerals and amino acids to your diet. If taken daily, they even allow to not changing eating habits, although it is recommended, of course.

4. More Alkali-forming Foods: Good alkali forming foods include fresh sprouts, spinach, kale, Swiss chard, avocados, lemons, limes, cucumbers, celery, cauliflower, Brussel sprouts, asparagus, green beans, eggplant, broccoli, fresh tomatoes, zucchini, green/red/yellow peppers, onions, okra, garlic, parsley, watercress, cabbage, squashes, soy beans (tofu), garbanzo beans, raw almonds, Brazil nuts, hazel nuts, sesame seeds, flax seed, sprouted grains and legumes. Green juices from all green vegetables and their tops are highly alkaline. Also, vegetable broths are extremely alkalizing to the body. These need to be yeast-free and preservative-free.

Changing to an alkaline, healthy diet low on calories and the increased intake of alkaline food and alkaline supplements supports vital cellular activities and functions and will create new levels of healthiness, energy, wellness and fitness.

I'm a big believer in modeling successful people. I do the best I can to surround myself with the right people and go as deep as I can in their work. It's not just enough for me to read a book or watch a video. I want to spend time with them on a deeper level. Discover their nuances, their strategies and how they think. The challenge with this approach is that the more in demand the person is the harder it is to get access.

One of the guys I really wanted to spend an extended period of time with and go more 'vertical' with was Tony Robbins. The first step I took was to take an Unlimited Power Weekend. It's his crazy over the top walk on hot coals (really) weekend. It was fantastic and definitely changed me. It's a 3 day seminar that goes for 12 hours per day and you just about never sit down. Imagine the best rock concert you have ever been to that you don't want to end.

As much as I loved UPW I was left jonesin' for more! I decided to go a level deeper and sign up for Date with Destiny. DWD is 12 hours a day for seven days with this lunatic! And, it aint cheap -$5,495 per ticket. When you do the math on two tickets (for me and Kim) with airfare and hotel it definitely becomes a 'put your money where your mouth is' kind of thing. To give you a feel for who this guy is, here's a snippet of Tony getting intense with Al Gore at the TED conference (it's a great 20 min video but if you want to skip to the Al Gore part start at about minute 16).

There's about 2000 people that show up for DWD. When you cue up to register you'll see a very well organized process that looks like a Broadway performance- dancers included. The event begins that afternoon and includes people lining up at the doors to get a good seat hours before the event begins. When the doors open you walk into a huge ballroom with 10,000 watts of music power banging into your chest. You'll find a dark room filled with smoke machines, rock concert worthy lighting in full tilt and everyone up on their chairs dancing. This isn't a "let's wait until the third day of the event to let our hair down" kind of thing. This is "let's party" from the nano second you walk in the joint.

Prior to walking in the room I was trying to figure out how anyone could hold my attention for 12 hours a day for seven days in a row. Now, I get it. In fact, the seminar is so engaging that when you have to go to the bathroom you run as fast as you can and on your return ask the guy next to you what you missed. There were days when I looked up at the clock and realized that it was 5 p.m. and we haven't even stopped for lunch. Here's an example (from someone's rogue video) of a 'break' at the event designed to help keep you awake.

Each of the 7 days of the event cover various areas of training. If you want a more complete list of how that breaks down you can get it here. It's hard for me to pick my favorite section but if I had to pick one I would say it's the masculine feminine section. Tony takes traditional relationship strategies and flips it on it's head. He shows you how the average American man has (in some cases) gone from a Clark Gable masculine man in the 50's to a Khaki pants wearing p***y in the 2000's. He also explains how women have (in some cases) slid from sexy and feminine to a more masculine version of themselves.

It's next to impossible for me to fully describe over 70 hours of content. Trust me when I tell you it was totally worth it and that I would do it again (actually I did do it again). I just believe that it's critical who we 'hang out' and 'surround' ourselves with. Don't get me wrong I am by no means a Tony Robbins drink the purple Kool-Aid groupie. His stuff is just that life changing and worth the time and money that I wanted to share it. It has certainly changed mine without a doubt.
