TEN RULES FOR OPTIMUM HEALTH
For most of us, the odd treat here and there or a 'junk food' meal is OK. Sort of the same as wearing a 'party bra'. Not a good idea for everyday breast health or comfort. These guidelines can help you maintain your health .
1. Stop putting poison into your body. (Eliminate avoidable toxins).
2. It takes 6 to 7 times the normal amount of nutrition to build and repair than to maintain your health. (Sort of like car repairs)
3. There are no quick fixes. Nothing heals the human body in less than 3 months. Then you add one month for every year of illness.
4. You must take responsibility for your own health.
5. Eat as close to nature as possible.
6. Exercise regularly.
7. Drink pure water.
8. Use a Responsible food supplement program. Make sure what you are taking is from natural sources.
9. Learn to relax and rest appropriately and manage stress.
10. Laugh and love....express love for your fellow man. Hug someone today.

THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF PURE GRAPESEED OIL
Grape seed extracts and oils are relatively new discoveries. However, we have learned that they really can stop cell damage, and help ‘disease proof’ the body. The secret ingredient in grapes is a substance called pycnogenol. It is an antioxidant that is 50 times more effective than vitamin E and 20 times better than Vitamin C at destroying free radicals.
Some of the ailments that Grape Seed has been known to help are:
Improved eyesight by causing the small blood vessels in the eyes to function more effeciently.
Help with arthritis by keeping the collagen-connective joint tissue-healthy and supple. When arthritis strikes, collagen wears away, causing aches and pains that afflict millions of people.
Grape seed products can bring relief to allergy sufferers because they help block the relase of enzymes that produce histamines, natural substances in the body that trigger allergic reactions.
Keep your heart healthy by lowering ‘bad’ cholesterol and elevating ‘good’ cholesterol, keeping vital arteries free of placque that can cause heart attacks and strokes.

You should always check with your physician before starting any new treatment.
QUALITY SUPPLEMENTS
I like Shaklee’s Supplements as they are made from whole foods, not synthetics . This is a question you should ask when considering vitamin supplements.
DO CLEANING PRODUCTS CAUSE BREAST CANCER?
Women who report greater use of cleaning products may be at higher risk for breast cancer than those who say they use them sparingly. Researchers writing in BioMed Central’s open access journal Environmental Health, asked more than 1500 women about their cleaning product usage and found that women who reported using more air fresheners and products for mold and mildew control had a higher incidence of breast cancer.
The researchers questioned women on product use, beliefs about breast cancer causes, and established and suspected risk factors. They found that cleaning products, air fresheners and insect repellents were assocated with breast cancer, but little association was observed with overall pesticide use. Women with breast cancer who believed that chemicals and pollutants contribute to the risk of developing the condition were more likely to report high product usage. Speaking about this potential bias to the study, Brody said, “When women are diagnosed with breast cancer, they often think about what happened in the past that might have contributed to the disease. As a result, it may be that women with breast cancer more accuratly recall their past product use or even over estimate it. Or, it could also be that experience with breast cancer influences beliefs about its causes. For example, women diagnosed with brest cancer are less likely to believe heredity contributes ‘a lot’ , because most are the first in their family to get the disease.”
