Are there any healthy replacements for sugar? Most people have at least an occasional craving for some-thing sweet, and they often satisfy this desire with sugar-laden, fat-filled foods. One of the biggest problems with sugar is that it can markedly elevate blood sugar levels, throwing off the body's delicate chemical balance. Addictive in nature, sugar also leaches important minerals from the body, causing weakness to the immune system. And any excess sugar is converted by the body into fat. Artificial sugar alternatives such as saccharin and aspartame are certainly not the complete answer, considering their health risks are not fully known. So how can that sweet tooth be satisfied without compromising good health? The answer may lie in stevia, nature's calorie-free sweetener. Today we are lucky that there is a sweetener that is both natural and healthy, with no negative health implications or side effects. The sweetener you have been waiting for is .... Stevia. Stevia can sweeten almost any food or drink with no added calories, no carbohydrates, no tooth decay and is diabetic and hypoglycemic safe. Stevia nourishes the pancreas and does not raise blood glucose levels, making it not only safe for diabetics but also beneficial. Since there are no calories or carbohydrates, stevia is an excellent weight loss aid. It does not cause the negative side effects often reported with the use of artificial sweeteners. Adding stevia to your diet on a regular basis has been reported to help minimize hunger sensations, cravings for sweets or fatty foods, aide in digestion, decrease hypertension without effecting normal blood pressure, stabilize blood glucose levels, shorten recovery time from cold and flu and aide in addictions to tobacco and alcohol. When used in toothpaste or mouthwash, cavities and gum disease is reduced due to its antibacterial properties.
Required for life as we know it to exist, chlorophyll is the deep, dark green pigment found in plants. In a process called photosynthesis, chlorophyll converts light energy from the sun into chemical energy, while releasing oxygen into the atmosphere. The energy is then stored in the plant as carbohydrates and used by animals and humans when eaten. This is the means by which energy enters the food chain. Recently its use as a supplement has undergone investigation. It was found that "Chlorophyll is a natural source of magnesium and several trace elements." Chlorophyll is often referred to as "green blood" and "oxygenated sunshine." These nicknames refer to chlorophyll's similarity in make-up to human blood and its high oxygen level. Chlorophyll is remarkably similar to hemoglobin, the red pigment in our blood. The difference is that hemoglobin is composed of a protein complex surrounding a single iron atom, in chlorophyll a similar complex surrounds a single magnesium atom. The discovery of this similarity led doctors in Germany to use chlorophyll in cases of anemia with very promising results. Research performed at Temple University in Philadelphia around the same time found "The green solution (chlorophyll) seemed to thicken and strengthen the walls of cells in living animals". Chlorophyll has the ability to aid tissue in combating and killing germs. By strengthening the tissue chlorophyll increases the disease resistance of cells and, at the same time, inhibits the growth of bacteria. Chlorophyll's action as a healer is nothing short of remarkable. Time after time it has proven itself to be gentle to the body while it is devastating to infections. Chlorophyll has been observed to combat deep-lying infections, cleanse open wounds, relieve chronic sinus conditions, and exile common colds. Chlorophyll is able to help the body because of its great mineral content. It is high in iron, potassium, magnesium, and copper. The iron in chlorophyll attracts oxygen, which aids in the treatment of anemia and rejuvenates the thyroid. Potassium plays a key role in good heart health while helping the body build and maintain muscle. Copper helps build the bloodstream and is vital for overall health. These minerals occur naturally within chlorophyll, allowing them to be readily absorbed by the body. Super Strength Holistically Standardized Extracts After many years of intense research and development in the field of herbal extraction, Pure-le Natural created a unique process to manufacture the highest potency holistically standardized natural herb extracts. Our "Super Cool" Extraction Process represents a revolution in the herbal extract industry. This method was devised to maximize extract potency while protecting the extremely delicate constituents naturally present in the herbs from destruction or alteration. No artificial additives, preservatives, colourants, flavours, sugars, or chemicals are ever used, thus leaving the extract purely natural and holistically complete. Our manufacturing process begins with only the finest raw materials. The herbs we use are organically grown under controlled conditions, without the use of pesticides, herbicides, chemicals or artificial fertilizers. All of our Super Strength Holistically Standardized extracts are extracted using only the finest pure grain alcohol and triple filtered water. The alcohol is essential to liberate the active herbal constituents from the cellulose, sugars, starches, and other inert substances that make up the bulk of crude herbs. Traditionally, extract manufacturers have combined herbs with alcohol and water, then boiled the mixture for a few minutes or hours. This was then filtered to create an extract. Pure-le Natural uses the most advanced extraction techniques to ensure the highest level of quality and herbal concentration in our extracts. Only select herbs, pure grain alcohol and triple filtered water are blended together in precise amounts. Our innovative extraction process is an entirely cold procedure. Taking weeks, and in some cases months, we slowly and gently extract the full spectrum of herb constituents at temperatures that never exceed 29 degrees Celsius. Our "Super Cool" Extraction Process constantly agitates the water, herb, and alcohol mixture. This constant mixing is key to ensure the maximum extraction of the full range of herb constituents takes place. The results of our revolutionary "Super Cool" process are clear. Pure-le Natural's Super Strength Holistically Standardized extracts are up to 10 times stronger than other extract brands, and up to 20 times stronger than tinctures. Cardiovascular (heart) disease (CVD) is the number one killer in Canada (79,117 deaths in 1995).1 Premature death from CVD is responsible for an estimated 294,000 years of life lost. Cardiovascular disease is also the most costly disease in Canada, putting the greatest burden on our national health care system. Unfortunately the risk factors for CVD comprise a laundry list of the habits of Western society namely; smoking, physical inactivity, high blood pressure, dyslipidemias (cholesterol problems), obesity, and diabetes. The prevalence of these factors have created an epidemic of heart disease and stroke in Canada. The ingredients in Heart Rx have centuries of international recognition for their ability to nourish the entire cardiovascular system, support normal blood and oxygen supply to the heart and body as well as maintain normal circulation and heartbeat. Heart Rx is manufactured in two strengths, Regular and Super Strength. Both use the same ingredients, differing only in their concentration. With Super Strength Heart Rx being more than twice the potency of the regular strength, you only need half as much to obtain the same results. We recommend that first time users, or those sensitive to spicy foods, start with Heart Rx (Regular Strength) and get used to the ingredients before venturing to use Super Strength. Most men barely realize the purpose behind their prostate until they have urinary discomfort, urinary pain or difficulty urinating. As a man ages, his hormone levels change, causing his prostate gland to gradually enlarge. This enlargement often is the source of pain and urinary difficulties. This all too common condition is known medically as benign prostatic hypertrophy or benign prostatic hyperplasia, both of which are abbreviated as BPH. Prostate Rx is the safe, natural and guaranteed solution. It blends safe, clinically proven, natural nutrients for prostate health and proper urinary function. Eyesight is one of the most exquisite and sophisticated engineering feats. The process by which we see is so complex that even the most talented scientists do not fully understand its workings. As we grow older, the components of this process break down and wear out, leaving our eyes vulnerable to a host of diseases. These afflictions can rob us of the gift of sight through debilitating degeneration, eventually leading to total blindness. Vision Rx is a synergistic blend of herbs, nutrients, and antioxidants designed specifically for vision protection and improvement. Essential oils have been successfully used for thousands of years. Ancient civilizations, including Greeks and Egyptians, commonly utilized them as remedies, relaxants, and even perfumes. Different oils have varying effects on the body's systems. Essential oils are the highly concentrated volatile extract of flowers herbs, grasses, shrubs and trees. These tiny droplets are present in particular glands, hairs or specific structures of the plant and contain some (but not all) of the active principles of the plant. Non-oily in texture, these highly concentrated substances are obtained by steam distillation, cold pressing, and solvent extraction methods. Only the utmost quality of essential oils should be used in therapeutic treatment. Pure-le Natural Essential Oils are certified 100% pure, and unadulterated highly concentrated plant extracts obtained through steam distillation of flowers, seeds, berries, roots and barks or citrus rind expression.
