Tired of feeling sick and tired?

Are you always wondering why even though you diet and exercise, you still cannot seem to lose weight or feel good? There are 4 main reasons why and some pretty simple and logical solutions. I am going write about each reason in different articles so you get a better understanding of each.

REASON 1: Toxic Ingredients you may be Ingesting

Whether you ingest toxic ingredients in what you eat or put on your skin, they play a major part in your health & well-being. It is a good idea to get in the habit of checking ingredients because of all the trickery with labeling.

Identifying Toxic Ingredients BEFORE you ingest them is your first step to Better Health & Wellness!

Here are some things to be aware of when researching a product label's ingredients. If the label says "Organic" make sure most or all of the ingredients are Organic or even better, Certified Organic. The ingredient cannot be GMO (Genetically Modified) if they are Organic. Manufacturers are allowed to claim that a product is Organic or Natural even if it has only one Organic or Natural ingredient and the other ingredients are toxic or GMO. As a rule of thumb, Certified Organic food and products do not have toxic ingredients and Organic products seldom do. Read each individual ingredient on a product label and keep in mind, fewer ingredients are better. Also, if you cannot pronounce the ingredient it is probably made in a laboratory (GMO); therefore it is bad for you.

I included a couple of Toxic Ingredients below with their shocking side effects! To obtain a complete A-Z Ingredients guide, please go to:

ASPARTAME - (Artificial Sweetener found in Equal, NutraSweet and in 5000 diet food and drink products).
SIDE EFFECTS - Asthma, neurological disorders, seizures, depression, dizziness, insomnia, blurred vision, migraine headaches, memory loss, mood changes, Multiple Sclerosis, caused cancer and leukemia in animal studies. Saccharine is no better and has been linked to cancer as well. Ironically both have been linked to weight gain.
**Healthy/Safe Alternative - Stevia (No calories, low on the glycemic index and no side effects).

ARTIFICIAL COLORINGS - (Almost all conventional food and drinks have artificial coloring including children's vitamins, Gatorade, candy, sodas and more). Synthetic petrochemicals made from petroleum, antifreeze, ammonia and many are contaminated with aluminum.
SIDE EFFECTS - Blue #1 causes kidney tumors in mice. Red #2 and Blue #2 cause brain and bladder tumors in rats. Red #3 causes thyroid cancer in animals, and is banned in cosmetics, but still allowed in food. Red #40 debilitates the immune-system and is linked to behavioral disorders in children. Green #3 causes bladder and testes tumors. Yellow #5 and #6 cause adrenal tumors in animals.
**Healthy/Safe Alternative - Avoid food and skincare products that has any artificial coloring.

PETROLEUM / MINERAL OIL - (Main ingredients in Vaseline and Baby Oil and found in many skin care products).
SIDE EFFECTS - Coats the skin like plastic, clogging the pores. Interferes with skin's ability to eliminate toxins, promoting acne and other disorders. Slows down skin function and cell development, resulting in premature aging. Can be contaminated with cancer causing PAH's (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). Manufacturers use petroleum because it is unbelievably cheap!
**Healthy/Safe Alternatives - Un-Petroleum Jelly (Plant derived and same consistency of Petroleum Jelly), All Miessence Certified Organic SkinCare and Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil.

Because of the all the gimmicks and confusion, I created a website that offers Certified Organic, Natural (No GMO) and/or Gluten Free Food, Skin Care and other Products at Affordable Prices. All products have been carefully analyzed before I placed them on my website for sale. I have done the work to make it easier for you to achieve your healthy goals.
