 ASK LENA Q & A EDITION!
=========================== 
The answers to questions submitted each week come from my 20+ years as a Medical Office Nurse along with many years and ongoing education in nutritional and alternative treatment modes. Add that to many years of friendship with Dr. Wayne Garland, a very knowledgeable naturopath and herbologist, who many years ago, beat his cancer death sentence given by the traditional medical world, has helped along the alternatives path and hopefully help to give hope to those who need it... Also receiving a lot of study reports and try to ascertain if they are good or bad then report them to you, which has increased my knowledge along the way and I pass them on to you to use or not...

I am not a doctor or dentist and you should not think of me as one!! My years observing life and health of the many people/patients around me and the contradictions of the traditional medical world's idea of treating - prescription domino effect - while watching those same schooled methods that aren't relieving illness but creating far more than they help. Those same medical professionals aren't telling people how to get healthy or how to prevent illness, which led me to look for something to change that premise for myself and those around me. In looking outside the Westernized medical profession I found and continue to find alternatives that really work to create health and longevity -when adhered to - beyond anything the traditional medical world can do...

First let me say; Have you tried to repair your digestive system? That can eliminate so many health problems and risks... if you have a sensitive digestive system you are most likely severely lacking in digestive enzymes and probiotics (natural flora) in the stomach and intestines. There is a very slight chance that damage caused from medications, surgery, accident, etc is creating your discomforts..  BUT almost every person who I've talked to with sensitive digestive problems have been able to correct that with patience and the right supplements... Sadly those who have digestive problems most usually compound it by eating badly as so many things seem to bother the stomach, feeding a bad diet that continues the problem... I hope you will read the article "Digestion The Path To Illness or Health" and "Your Amazing Ecosystem Within"... These two articles can help you better understand how I can say those things... To correct a sensitive digestive system will take time and cannot be done overnight as your body will have to build up and repair the enzyme producing glands in the stomach and the intestines will have to rebalance the probiotic levels and kill off the excess candida/yeast that resides there due to the lack of balanced natural flora... That healing can take as much as three or four months of being diligent with your supplements and eating correctly.  If you have are/have taken Nexium or Zantac or any of those digestive aid drugs the healing can take as much as three to six months of being diligent with your supplements and eating correctly, simply because those drugs suppress the enzyme producing glands causing them to atrophy and not work and they will have to be revitalized, if they can be and that will depend on how long someone has taken them.  More than a year of taking those particular suppressors can take up to two years to revitalize those glands, if they can be revitalized... The majority of the time they can be!

Now to answer your question.

As to the minerals absorption; Since they are ionic and liquid and 99.9% ingested within the first 5 minutes or so is very easily digested... It's not like taking pills or capsules the mouth is a very absorbable part of the body and as you drink your minerals in the juice they begin immediate absorption and continue absorbing as it travels into stomach...  Now, people who are severely toxic or eat a lot of meats that are not organic and/or pasteurized dairy, and/or sugary  and/or preprocessed foods and/or fast foods consistently and/or sugar substitutes and/or sugar-free foods that contain Splenda or aspartame type sugar substitute will have some stomach cramps and very loose stools until such time the body is detoxed sufficiently or until some or all eating of those flora/body killing habits are under control... That's the reason to start Life Transfusion Ionic Liquid Minerals with 1/2 teaspoon twice a day for one week and then 3/4 teaspoon twice a day for the second week, then 1 teaspoon twice a day thereafter. Some people do well with only 3/4 teaspoon twice a day and someone with an illness or disease can require more than 2 teaspoons a day... Good health requires experimenting to find your fit!

Hope this answers your question satisfactorily.

Payola In Supplement Labeling? 

Is this another form of Payola? You be the judge! The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) - one arm of the government's FDA - prohibits supplement manufacturers from making claims of any sort -- even 100 percent truthful ones -- on any information describing their products, unless the company is willing to fork over hundreds of thousands of dollars to have those products "approved" by the FDA. Most supplement companies are too small to be able to fork over those dollars making it very likely to face charges by the FDA sometime in the future!

LOOKING FOR BEAUTY

Many people like me feel slightly passed over in a world that seems to place a high value on beauty. But a short poem by Anthony Ewell reminds us that physical attractiveness can be over-rated. He writes:

"As a beauty I am not a great star,
There are others more handsome by far.
But my face, I don't mind it,
For I am behind it,
It's the people in front who get the jar!"

Physically, maybe I'm not the stuff dreams are made of. And maybe, as the poem suggests, it doesn't matter. Because I believe there is another kind of beauty in all of us that can be experienced by anybody who digs a little deeper.

Several times I have visited a natural wonder that is one of the largest and most spectacular of its kind in the world. Carlsbad Caverns is an immense series of limestone caves extending under much of southern New Mexico (USA). Native Americans took refuge in the gaping hole that is the main entrance, but they did not venture far. A hundred years ago settlers in the area were attracted to the opening by the awesome sight of hundreds of thousands of bats swarming from the hole every summer evening. Though a bat guano mining operation was set up, nobody explored much beyond the bat's dwelling places.

Eventually, a cowboy name Jim White explored deeper. He returned with fantastic stories of gigantic subterranean chambers, spectacular cave formations and unbelievably stupendous sights. Even in 1915, after black and white photographs were taken of the caverns, many did not believe. The government sent skeptic Robert Holley to investigate in 1923. He wrote in his final report, "I am wholly conscious of the feebleness of my efforts to convey in words the deep conflicting emotions, the feeling of fear and awe, and the desire for an inspired understanding of the Divine Creator's work which presents to the human eye such a complex aggregate of natural wonders."

A whole new world - majestic, wondrous and awe-inspiring - lay hidden from view. Its unimagined beauty can only be experienced by exploring beneath the surface.

And so it is with people. I have found in people a unique inner beauty that can be discovered by exploring beneath the surface. They may not believe it is there themselves, but that does not mean it doesn't exist.

Those outward looks we're usually so self-conscious about don't matter much. Who people really are may be hidden beneath the outer landscape like a magnificent subterranean palace. And when you care to scratch the surface a bit, you can discover what others have missed.

And you will be rewarded beyond measure.
