Have you ever woken up with a sugar hangover? Do you sometimes feel cranky, sad, depressed and just would like to be left alone, and you wondered why you are feeling this way. Maybe the reason is sugar.
During the holidays and special occasions we often have a lot of sugary goodies to eat, or not eat. Perhaps when we do eat too much sugar, it can cause feelings like an emotional hangover.
Sometimes special people give us delicious treats and it’s hard not to eat them. Some people have trouble stopping or eating more then their body can take. This could cause terrible negative emotions, like anger, depression or disappointment.
So, what can we do to get to feeling better? One quick fix is to take several long “whiffs” of Joy oil. Joy is a luxuriously exotic blend with uplifting overtones that creates magnetic energy and brings joy to the heart. When worn as cologne or perfume, Joy exudes an alluring and irresistible fragrance that inspires romance and togetherness. When diffused, it can be refreshing and uplifting.

Heart Disease is still the leading cause of death for men and women in the U.S., and physicians are growing more concerned at the age and rate of incidence that the problem is occurring in people. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention says that in 2009, heart disease is projected to cost more than $304.6 billion. Since forty-seven percent of cardiac deaths occur before emergency services or transport to a hospital is manifested, and since this disease is the leading cause of death, any precautions one can take against this horrible disease is a very good thing. Fortunately, there are many, many precautions that may lessen one’s risks.
Fermenting vegetables (like sauerkraut) used to be common practice, and necessary too as this provided people a way of preserving foods before refrigerators came to be. Interestingly enough, fermented foods had more healthful benefit than just simply being part of a meal. Fermented foods that have not been heated can contain billions of probiotics as well as life enhancing enzymes. Probiotics are good/or “friendly” bacteria that kill off bad bacteria. Many studies have found that so many problems start with a bad bacteria overgrowth in the intestines, such as candida, which in time can spread throughout the body. New studies are even linking a specific bad bacteria in the colon with obesity. Naturopaths teach that a person is only as healthy as their digestive system is, and health authorities like Dr. Christopher and Bernard Jensen taught that 90% of disease begins in the colon. It is very important to keep a clean colon, but it is also important to provide the colon with good bacteria to help protect the body.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, more then one third of America’s adults are obese, which totals out to around 72 million people. A 2003-2004 test done by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), indicated that an estimated 17 percent of children and adolescents ages (2-19) years are overweight. What’s worse, is that children who are overweight are more likely to struggle with weight problems for the rest of their lives. When one considers all of the fat free, dieting fads, and weight loss supplements out there, the reason so many suffer from this is truly a mystery. Or is it? A thought to ponder is that the weight loss industry is a very big industry, and unfortunately if you lose weight permanently, the industry looses a customer! The flash diets are for the most part dangerous, and fat free foods are not only dangerous and bad for your body and brain, but they are a hoax.
One of the problems we are faced with today that add to difficulty loosing weight and becoming healthy is that of petrochemicals. Petrochemicals are toxic chemicals we are encounter on a daily basis. They are in cleaning agents, bath and body products, the air, even our food and water. Xenoextrogens are a by product of these dangerous chemicals, and they throw our bodies own hormones out of balance and can cause so many health problems, including weight gain. By doing periodic body detoxes (cleansing), and by taking certain supplements such as antioxidants (NingXia Red and Longevity are two Young Living products that contain high amounts of antioxidants) we may assist the body in eliminating these dangerous substances. Of course it is imperative to replace the toxic petrochemical sources we use everyday with natural alternatives, which Young Living does provide (see bath and body care links at the bottom of the page). For more on petrochemicals you can read my article on Petrochemicals, Free Radicals, and Essential oils, (link at the bottom of the page).
ing and support will make the whole process more pleasant in so many ways. The Feelings Collection may be extremely beneficial for this purpose of emotional clearing.

as diverticulitis and a host of other colon disorders ( many of which are painful), as well as inflammation, and malnutrition. Health practitioners are beginning to teach their patients that the digestive system is the foundation for heath, be it good or bad, so taking care of that foundation is a must! Dr. Christopher and others have taught that constipation is 90% of all disease! So one would do well to keep that colon clean! Supplemental, colon nourishing products from Young Living include the Cleansing Trio Kit (
Another reason people do not detox is because most people do not know how to go about it, (unfortunately the only thing most grandma’s and grandpa’s remember about those spring tonics is how awful they tasted)! Some people are simply afraid to cleanse because they worry they may “mess something up” and others have tried the popular detoxing products on the market and found results only temporary. It is important to realize, that although a once a year detox is good, it is not going likely to eliminate problems that have been there for years, and the results will only be temporary. The road to good health takes time, and a new lifestyle of consistently incorporating healthy practices into your life. There are no magic potions creating immediate, perfect health. Nevertheless, is so important to realize that cures are more expensive emotionally and financially, which is why preventative maintenance is so invaluable.
And now we come to the kidneys. There is so much help for the Kidneys when it comes to alternative medicine. The old fashioned remedy of lemon water is wonderful! Doctors have actually begun to recommend this to people who have experienced kidney stones. Young Living’s
