Inflammation Digestion Sunrider Vitadophilus

What is Inflammation? Inflammation is when any part of our body swells up with blood or water. The most common and obvious symptoms of inflammation are joint pain and stiffness, redness, skin tightness, and a swollen joint or area.

But inflammation is more than skin-deep! Other symptoms of inflammation include: chills, fatigue, fever, gastrointestinal discomfort,
headaches, muscle stiffness, and no appetite. Any part of your body can become inflamed and any type of inflammation can cause pain and suffering, although different body parts will react differently.

Inflammation of a Wound
Inflammation of a wound causes redness, soreness, and may even tear the wound open repeatedly and leak clear or cloudy fluids.

Inflammation of the Joints
Inflammation of the joints will result in redness and swelling, a slow breakdown of the soft, cushioning tissue between the bones, and a possible overgrowth of bone, eventually causing arthritis.

Inflammation in the Gut
Inflammation in the gut will cause cramping, upset stomach, flatulence, and even blood in the stool.

Inflammation of the Heart
Inflammation of the heart causes all round fluid retention, chest pains, shortness of breath and difficulty performing everyday activities.

Inflammation of the Lungs
Inflammation of the lungs causes shortness of breath and may even trigger asthma in vulnerable people.

Inflammation of the Kidneys
Inflammation of the kidneys causes high blood pressure, frequent urination, migraines, and eventually results in kidney failure.

Inflammation of Soft Tissues
Inflammation of other soft tissues will cause pain when moving or performing basic tasks. For example, inflammation of the urethra may cause pain when urinating, or inflammation of the mouth may cause pain when eating or talking.

As you can see, inflammation can affect your entire body. And most of the time, this isn’t a bad thing!

How And Why Does Inflammation Develop?

Inflammation is a bit like the army: when it does its job, we barely notice it’s there; it works hard to keep our bodies safe; it doesn’t actually know what the big picture is, and it trusts the orders it’s given; we love it when it’s needed but get angry at it when its job is being done; it gets a bad rap most of the time, but we would all be very sorry if it disappeared overnight.

Inflammation is the body’s response to a microscopic threat. Our five senses and our skin are our barriers to bigger threats, like bears, flying objects, sharp items, or cars. But the world around us is packed full of microscopic enemies: bacteria and viruses. These enemies are usually kept at bay by our skin and mucous membranes.

Our Skin Keeps our Fluids Inside Us, and Bacteria and Viruses Out

Our skin is a watertight barrier built of dead, dry cells, keeping all our fluids inside us and, just as importantly, keeping bacteria and viruses out of our fluids! Microscopic threats may land on our skin, but they can’t get in and attack our living tissue, which is just as good. We all know what happens when we leave a piece of raw meat out in the open a day or two.

Without our skin, we would be at risk of that. But our bodies do have openings: our eyes, nose, mouth, and other orifices all need to be wide open to work. And that’s where mucous membranes come into play. Our mouths, for example, may look bare and open, but they’re actually
sealed by a very fine layer of dead tissues and mucus. Mucus is a combination of protein and water that traps microscopic threats and washes them down into our stomach acid, or sends them out of our bodies, for example when we blow our noses.

These external barriers do a great job of keeping most microscopic threats off and out of our bodies. The next line of defence becomes active when the barriers fail. Naturally there are so many bacteria and viruses in the air around us, the foods we eat, the water we wash in, and every single thing we touch, that we can’t actually stop every single one from reaching our bodies. Some of these microscopic threats will even digest our skin if they stay on us long enough, defeating our barriers!

FRIENDLY BACTERIA:
INFLAMMATION DIGESTION SUNRIDER VITADOPHILUS

So, what do our bodies do?

Our bodies fight fire with fire. If our skin and mucus are barriers, our FRIENDLY BACTERIA are our foot soldiers.

When microscopic threats land on our skin or get into our bodies, our friendly bacteria will kill off enough of the threatening bacteria or viruses to keep us healthy and safe.

But these bacteria can’t always do their job. Sometimes the threat comes in through a wound. This might be a wound from something else, like cutting our finger by accident, but it can also be a wound caused by the threats themselves: when we don’t have enough FRIENDLY BACTERIA to defend us, the enemy bacteria will digest our skin and mucus and this will create a wound where the microscopic threats can enter our bodies.

Inflammation Digestion Sunrider Vitadophilus Diana Walker

Our last line of defense is the one that plays a huge part in inflammation: our immune system.  (and I will talk about that in my next blog post).

Brain Health Sunrider TOP and TOP FOCUS

BRAIN HEALTH SUNRIDER TOP AND TOP FOCUS

Don’t let your mind go blank while you are still talking or thinking – Wake up and get rid of Brain Fog.

Brain Fog is just the opposite of when you feel calm, optimistic, level-headed and motivated. It’s understandable why it can rob us of happiness and inspiration, increasing the likelihood of depression and anxiety.

Brain fog, or foggy head, keeps your thoughts elusive, not able to comprehend or recall anything.  Your memory fails, normal intellectual types of jobs are hard to do, and so on. And it can come and go, occurring frequently or even persisting indefinitely; even following an escalation of other symptoms and sensations of anxiety. It can be slight, it can be intense, even severe, coming in waves where it might be strong in one instance but ease off in the next.

Brain Health Sunrider TOP and TOP FOCUS

Stress

* Active stress responses suppress the areas of our brains that affect rational thinking, increasing the brains reaction to danger. When this change occurs in the brain functioning, it makes us more aware of the danger and increases our reaction to it. Sometimes the stress response gets activated too often or too dramatically – then the stress hormones will cause an increase in the electrical activity in the brain. Increased electrical activity in the brain generates an increase in our thoughts, causing our attention to be easily side-tracked into foggy thoughts.

* The more stressed we are, the more persistent our brain fog is. Our responses to stress can suppress the memory and learning areas of our brain, making it more difficult for our brain to store information.

* When our stress levels are elevated, our bodies are taxed; we are tired out and drained, unable to function normally or to retrieve  information. Studies show that the brain becomes tired quicker than other parts of the body. An exhausted brain loses its ability to think and  to remember things.

* It is obvious to see from the above, just how stress plays a major role in brain fog, and how it can negatively affect short-term memory and concentration. People who experience entrenched anxiety usually have the habit of being internally focused; they worry about what others think; they are easily distracted because they are so busy thinking of all the ‘what-ifs’ in their life. They often become obsessed about it to the point that a lot in their life has to take a back seat and that includes their attention and their focus on the external things.

* When these concentration and short-term memory problems occur, a lot of people start wondering if they are ‘losing it’; they believe they could be on the verge of a mental breakdown. Worrying about it just adds even more stress onto the over-stress-stimulated body.

* When active stress responses are the cause for brain fog, you need to calm yourself down and contain the anxious behavior, bringing an end to hectic and active stress responses. Definitely easier said than done!

* You can feel comforted knowing that brain fog can completely disappear when your body’s stress has returned to its healthy levels. Putting it simply, brain fog is a typical indication that your body is overly stressed.  Eliminating your overstressed state is important, and unfortunately, there aren’t really any quick fixes either. It means eliminating the active stress responses of your body.

BRAIN HEALTH SUNRIDER TOP AND TOP FOCUS

BRAIN FOG, AGING, MEMORY LOSS

Recent studies have suggested that dietary and environmental factors play an important role in maintaining healthy brain function throughout life. Aging and mild memory loss associated with aging have become a major concern for many people in our society. While some people become more absent minded due to natural aging, others reach very advanced ages with excellent mental function. Although the reasons for this difference may be partially genetic, accumulating evidence suggests that nutrition, environmental factors and lifestyle are also key factors.

Sunrider herbal foods can naturally supply the proper nutrition necessary to help improve mental clarity and brain health.

Sunrider herbal foods are just that – foods that are safe to eat on a daily basis. Sunrider foods are enhanced, formulated and concentrated so that cells regenerate rather than degenerate. By eating these high-quality, nutrient dense foods, you are introducing powerful brain foods into your diet that will help to improve the quality of your life.

Nourishing Your Body: Nutrition and Diet Tips for Longevity

The things that you put into your body play a huge, vital part in the longevity that you aim to achieve. You have to always consider what you eat and drink, even from a younger age. If you don’t do this, you will end up feeling sickly and aged beyond your years.

Focus on Whole Foods: You need to put your focus on a diet that is rich in whole, unprocessed foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.

More details here:  https://dianawalker.com/plant-protein-for-health/

Prioritize Plant-Based Foods: Additionally, increase your intake of plant-based foods, including fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds.

Moderate Portion Sizes: Practice mindful eating and pay attention to portion sizes. Overeating can contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of obesity-related health issues.

Limit Processed Foods and Added Sugars: Reduce your consumption of processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and added sugars. These foods offer little nutritional value and can contribute to weight gain, inflammation, and chronic diseases.

Include Healthy Fats: Incorporate sources of healthy fats into your diet, such as avocados, olive oil, nuts, seeds, and fatty fish like salmon and sardines.

Embrace Variety: Eat a diverse range of foods to ensure you’re getting a wide array of nutrients and phytochemicals. Experiment with different fruits, vegetables, whole grains, herbs, and spices to keep your meals interesting and nutritionally balanced.

Seek Professional Guidance: Consult with a registered dietitian or nutritionist for personalized dietary advice tailored to your individual needs, preferences, and health goals. They can provide evidence-based recommendations and support you in making sustainable lifestyle changes for long-term health and longevity.

Plant Protein for Health

By 4 Comments

Plant Protein for Health 

When you need to cut calories, or if you are on a diet to lose weight, we all know how essential it is to eat healthy foods. Adding plant proteins to the diet might be just the thing to help with weight loss. By replacing your high-fat meat intake with lean plant proteins, you are cutting your calories significantly, as well as saturated fat.

At the same time, you are helping to improve the nutritional content of your dieting plan. Beans are very effective here because they are so nutrient dense and contain what people consider the top weight loss formula:  Fiber, Protein, and Water.

Plant Protein for Health – Feel Fuller Faster

Diets that consist of fiber, protein, and water are the types that make you feel fuller faster. Proteins require plenty of energy to be able to be digested and metabolized, more so than fat or carbohydrates.

Plant Protein for Health – Stay Satisfied Longer

Digestion is slow for plant proteins which means you stay satisfied longer which means eating fewer calories in the day.

Plant Protein for Health – 8 Best Plant-Based Sources of Protein

Protein makes up the the building blocks of the body and is necessary for good health.

Most people get their daily protein from animal sources in the form of meat, dairy or eggs.

However, there are many great sources of protein that are plant-based.

Sunrider’s Protein Plus is a simple and delicious way to easily fill your Plant Protein needs!
Diana Walker, Sunrider Leader, will be happy to help you get started.
More details here:  https://www.diana2.com/free_sunrider_account.html

PLANT PROTEIN FOR HEALTH
– HERE ARE 8 OF THE BEST PLANT PROTEIN SOURCES
(Vegan Protein)

Lentils and Beans

One of the starchy proteins, these two are good sources of not only protein, but also carbohydrates and fiber.
They are great when added as a topping on a salad, as taco filling or to make vegetarian meatballs or burgers.
Cooked lentils contains about 18 grams of protein in 1 cup;
Beans contain about 15 grams of protein per 1 cup.

Hemp Seeds

Known as a complete protein, because it contains all nine essential amino acids, it is also a great source for Omega-3 fatty acid.
Boost the protein by adding them to soups, stews, salads, baked goods, or to smoothies.
Hemp seeds contain about 10 grams of protein per 3 tablespoons.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are one of the ancient grains different from most other types of plant protein in that they turn into a type of gel when added to water.
Add them to oatmeal, cold cereals, or in muffins to bump up the protein content and add soluble fiber to your diet.
Chia Seeds contain about 4 grams of protein per 2 tablespoons.

Quinoa

This is another starchy protein that is great when served like a bed of rice or as part of a stir-fry.
It can also be served as a hot cereal or as a topping on a salad.
Quinoa has about 7 to 9 grams of protein per 1/2 cup.

Spirulina

This one is entirely different than other plant-based protein in that it is blue-green in color comes from algae.
Note, it will impart a greenish tint to whatever it is mixed with.
Spirulina blends great as part of a smoothie or in desserts and snacks.
It does have a great sweet taste with hints of vanilla and chocolate.
Spirulina has about 8 grams of protein per 2 tablespoons.
Learn more about Sunrider Spirulina here: https://diana1.com/spirulina/

Nutritional Yeast

This is not a yeast at all, but a staple food item among plant-based food enthusiasts.
It comes in either powder or flaked form and can be mixed in sauces, dips and dressings to kick up the flavor with its cheesy taste.
Nutritional yeast has about 12 grams of protein per 3 tablespoons.

Seeds and Nuts

Beside the seeds already mentioned, sunflower, flax and pumpkin are also all good sources of protein and minerals as well as almonds, walnuts, cashews and pistachios on the nut side.
Most have a taste varying from sweet to earthy. They work well ground into a flour and used in baked goods or left whole as a topping on oatmeal, cereals, sprinkled on a salad or as a snack.
Seeds and Nuts have about 7 to 9 grams of protein per 1/4 cup

Soy – Be sure it is Non-GMO!!!

No list of plant protein would be complete without soy.
Tempeh, tofu and edamame are all types of soy that have around 20 grams of protein per 2.5 tablespoon serving.

Use of Soy is similar to beans and lentils and can be added to stir-fry or as the “meat” for spaghetti sauce and filling for tacos.

With these sources of plant-based protein, vegans and some vegetarians do not have to worry about getting enough protein in their diet.
Just be sure to cycle through all of the sources to ensure getting enough of the essential amino acids found in protein.

Wishing you Vibrant Health!

**************************************

If you’re trying to balance your body’s pH levels, then your diet should consist of 80% Alkaline foods and 20% Acidic foods.

So, basically, you should consume organic alkaline foods whenever you can. If you want to start following this eating plan, then you’ll need to learn more about the type of soil the produce you’re eating was grown in.

This is important because vegetables and fruits that are grown in mineral-dense soil are much more alkalizing. Considering the fact that the mineral and vitamin content of these foods greatly depends on the type of soil they were grown in, we can conclude that alkaline foods are not created equally.

When it comes to plant-based foods, the ideal pH of the soil should be somewhere between 6 and 7, since that’s when the food will contain all the essential nutrients. If the soil has a pH of less than 6, then the food will lack magnesium and calcium. On the other hand, if the pH level is over 7, it will lack copper, manganese, zinc, and iron.

When it comes to food that you can eat, your best bet is any type of raw food. Uncooked fruits and veggies will definitely provide you with alkalizing minerals. By increasing your intake of raw foods, you will ensure that your body receives all the nutrients it needs. When it comes to promoting alkalinity, nothing beats vegetables and fruits.

Some of the best plant-based foods that you can eat include watermelon, cucumber, tomatoes, spinach, kale, citrus, raisins, mushrooms, avocado, figs, celery, cabbage, ginger, garlic, broccoli, grapefruits, and oregano.

Healthy Alkaline Foods ~ If you’re on an alkaline eating plan, then you should avoid tap water  One of the best ways to increase the alkalinity of your water is to add lemons, limes, or pH drops.

However, eating foods associated with alkalinity isn’t enough. You’ll also have to decrease foods that contribute to acidity including dairy, lentils, eggs, most grains, including processed cereals, meats, alcohol, caffeinated drinks, high-sodium foods, rice, pasta, walnuts, peanuts, processed foods, including canned, and packaged convenience and snack foods.

Healthy Alkaline Foods Sunrider Evergreen Diana Walker Alkaline Forming

Healthy Alkaline Foods: 29 Alkaline Foods

Most fruits and vegetables, some nuts, seeds, soybeans, tofu and legumes are alkaline-promoting choices.

How you plan your diet is completely up to you in terms of meal preparation. However, in order  to follow an Healthy Alkaline Foods Eating Plan, here are some great food choices.

Tomatoes: Apart from containing a lot of antioxidants and lycopene, tomatoes are also known for being an alkaline forming food. All of this will without a doubt improve your overall health. Due to their sour taste, some people believe that tomatoes are acidic, but they actually raise your body’s pH.

Asparagus: In terms of alkalinity, asparagus is one of the strongest foods that you can consume. However, this vegetable is also known for providing you with a huge amount of essential nutrients.

Zucchini: The great thing about zucchini is that it can be prepared in numerous ways, which makes it easy to include them into your diet. Apart from raising your body’s pH levels, zucchini will also help lower your bad cholesterol levels.

Carrots: Many people know carrots for helping you maintain proper eye health. However, this vegetable will offer you many more health benefits. Carrots are loaded with vitamins, potassium, and fiber, which makes them incredibly healthy. They are tasty when eaten both steamed and  raw. Adding carrots into your diet is a great way to increase your body’s pH.

Eggplants: Not only will eggplants boost your pH, but they will help you maintain a healthy weight as well. Although they are low in calories, eggplants will make you feel full for an extended time period, which will prevent you from overeating on other foods. The reason why eggplants will make you feel full is because they are a good source of dietary fiber.

Sweet potato: Apart from being incredibly tasty, sweet potatoes will provide you with a healthy dose of antioxidants and fiber. It will also keep your body’s alkalinity in check.

Ginger: Ginger is without a doubt one of the healthiest spices you can eat. Due to its nutritional value, this spice is able to help you fight cancer, improve your mental health, aid in weight loss, reduce inflammation, and improve your circulation. On top of that, ginger is also an alkaline food.

Buckwheat: Despite its name, buckwheat isn’t a type of wheat. This food is actually related to rhubarb, knotweed, and sorrel. Buckwheat is most popular among the gluten-free dieters. However, it can also be a great addition to an alkaline diet. Apart from that, buckwheat is a good source of iron and protein.

Basil: Basil is one of those spices that you should always have on your kitchen counter. Adding them to meals will help improve your overall health and keep you alkaline.

Lettuce: A lot of nutritionists say that regular lettuce doesn’t really provide you with any notable nutritional value. However, this simply isn’t true when it comes to your pH levels. Lettuce is known for producing an alkaline effect on your body.

Broccoli: Broccoli is one of the healthiest veggies you can eat. There are numerous studies on how this food improves your overall health by fighting chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. People have been aware of broccoli’s incredible healing powers for quite some time, which explains why it has been a staple on Western plates for generations. On top of the health benefits it provides, broccoli is also a very healthy alkaline food.

Thyme: Thyme is another spice that is known for boost your pH levels. This spice is known for being incredibly healthy, as it contains a lot of different antioxidants and nutrients. Apart from being an alkaline-forming spice, thyme will also improve your respiratory health.

Peppers: It doesn’t really matter what color they are, peppers will boost your body’s pH levels. The great thing about peppers is that they are very easy to cook with and always taste great. It doesn’t matter if you stir fry them or include them fresh in a salad. Apart from being alkalizing, peppers are noted for their vitamin A and vitamin C content.

 Brussels sprouts: As a kid, maybe you avoided Brussels sprouts, but now it’s time to start adding them to your meals again. Brussels sprouts will not only boost your pH levels, but they will also improve your body’s ability to break down acids formed by certain foods. Apart from that, this vegetable is known for its mineral, vitamin, and fiber content.

Grapefruit: Grapefruit is considered to be one of the healthiest foods on the planet. Eating some fresh grapefruit or drinking freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice is a great way to start your morning. Even though the taste of this fruit may be acidic and sour, it’s actually has an alkalizing effect once you consume it.

Parsley: This is another great herb that you can include in multiple meals, although it’s mostly used to improve the taste of vegetables. Parsley can also be a great addition to a smoothie, as it will make it taste much better. This herb is loaded with minerals and vitamins, and will definitely increase your pH.

Pomegranate: Pomegranate juice has become quite popular over the last several years, and for a good reason. Some of the main health benefits of this juice include stable blood pressure, improved heart health, and reduced risk of cancer. It’s also a drink you can enjoy knowing that it’s alkalizing. However, it’s worth noting that you shouldn’t add any sugar to the juice, or it might lose its alkalinity.

 Cauliflower: Since it is related to Brussels sprouts and broccoli, cauliflower will provide you with some of the same health benefits as these two foods. It is a great source of vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. In order to raise your body’s pH in the best way possible, you should eat cauliflower either raw or steamed until it’s tender.

Artichokes: Artichokes are without a doubt one of the most nutritionally-dense vegetables. Packed with antioxidants, they will aid in digestion, improve your liver health, and strengthen your immune system. They will also increase your body’s pH levels.

Sunflower seeds: You should be careful when you’re buying sunflower seeds. You should purchase only the ones that aren’t dry roasted and don’t have too much added salt. By consuming sunflower seeds with excess salt, you may experience certain health problems caused by increase sodium and fat levels. However, when eaten in moderation and without the additives, sunflower seeds will actually provide your body with healthy fats, as well as a good amount of iron and protein. These seeds will also improve your pH.

Cucumbers: Cucumbers are one of the few vegetables that you should always have stocked up in your fridge. Apart from being very hydrating, this veggie is very alkalizing as well.

Spinach: You probably already know that spinach is one of the healthiest vegetables on the planet. This leafy green is notorious for the numerous health benefits it will provide you. What’s great about it is that you don’t need to eat it in a specific form to experience all the health benefits it offers. There aren’t too many alkalizing vegetables, but spinach is one of those that will boost your pH.

 Sesame seeds: The next time you’re making a smoothie or a salad, make sure to add some sesame seeds into the mix as well. Apart from being an alkaline forming food, sesame seeds are also known for their calcium and iron content.

Celery: Not only is celery a great addition to a lot of different meals, it’s also a very tasty snack. You can even add celery to a delicious fruit or green smoothie. Aside from boosting your pH, this food will provide you with a number of health benefits. It worth noting that celery is extremely low in calories.

Collard greens: If you’re not in the habit of consuming collard greens, then you should immediately start adding them into your diet. Apart from being very alkalizing, collard greens are also notable for being one of the most effective cancer fighting foods.

Cumin: Depending on the type of food that you like to prepare, you either use cumin or you don’t. With that being said, you’re maybe already using it on a regular basis or you may not be familiar with it at all. In case you’ve never really tried cumin, now would be the perfect time to do just that. Not only will this spice help neutralize the acidic foods you consume, but it will also improve your overall health. Namely, cumin is noted for aiding in digestion, improving your immune system health, decreasing the presence of asthma symptoms, and reducing the risk of insomnia.

Quinoa: Over the recent years, quinoa has become increasingly popular, and often gets mentioned for being one of the healthiest foods that you’re not eating. Quinoa is noted for having more minerals and vitamins than most other grains. This food is extremely popular among people who avoid gluten. Although it may not be excessively alkaline, quinoa is still a great addition to an alkaline diet.

Kale: This is another food that has become extremely popular recently. Considering that it is absolutely packed with essential minerals and vitamins, you simply have to start adding this vegetable into your diet. On top of that, it’s very alkalizing, just like the previously mentioned leafy greens.

Leeks: Although most people use them only in soups and stews, you should definitely add them into more meals. Leeks represent a good source of vitamins C and A. They are also noted for their iron content. On top of that, they’re known for boosting your pH.
