Goji – Hard Facts

Liz James · August 12, 2020 ·

Just a little light reading this morning after chores. I am a born skeptic and curiosity is my middle name, which is probably a couple reasons why I love science so much. And because the internet provides fishy info (and/or makes truth hard to find), I lean towards good old fashioned research and book learnin’!📚


This one is terribly interesting,  and it corroborates data and information I’ve learned elsewhere. Sadly, textbooks like these are pricey (you can see where I hoard and spend any extra money….. books!!) but they bear the truth that cannot be erased or distorted by the whims of the internet gods. 


Got a question about the beautiful goji (aka wolfberry) berry? Let’er fly! Drop it in the comments, and if I can find the answer in one of my books, I’ll snap a pic for ya😘.

Location Location Location

Liz James · August 11, 2020 ·

Whether you are buying a house, or looking for quality food and produce, it will boil down to one thing….. Location location location!

Which brings me to why Young Living has gone to great lengths to have a partner farm in Ningxia China.ONE MINUTE VIDEO!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxSWyTJwzRA


The Ningxia Hui region is in northwest China near Mongolia. (It’s about the size of the state of Texas). There are approximately 1.78 Million people living in this area, and they eat (among other things) wolfberries as a daily staple of their diet.

Interestingly, the Ningxia people have almost 30 times the number of 100 year olds (centenarians) per capita as the rest of China. This is a people group that tends to live long healthy lives!👵👴

​​Within this region are the Ningxia people of the west elbow plateau of the Yellow River…. an area that is shielded from outside influence and cultures. #cleanandpureThe Yellow River flood plain (where our Ningxia Wolfberries are grown) is watered by melting snow from the Himalayan mountains. As the water flows downward, it gathers an incredible assortment of pure minerals and organic nutrients from the mountains.

The result is mineral rich, super fertile siltwater….. a unique growth medium found nowhere else on earth. No surprise, the Ningxia region is called “China’s herbal medicine valley”.
Because the area itself is so shielded from outside influence, there is an unusual purity of soil. Leave it to Young Living to source our products from pristine environments! 💝

So, location matters…. And the soil content matters too! Since the mid 70’s, agricultural soil world wide has been slowly depleted of its rich mineral content. Now, even organic foods are often minerally depleted because of decades long poor soil management.

Poor mineral content in soil = poor mineral content in food = mineral deficiencies in people = disease & dysfunction
#mineralrichsoilandwatermatters!

And guess what!….. We’ll never have to worry about depleted soils affecting our NingXia wolfberry products. Why?….. Because of the constant flow of nutrients and minerals from the Himalayan mountains snowmelt runoff, the wolfberry plants remain rich in nutrients!
Pretty cool, huh? 

👉If you’ve never tried NingXia Red, I’d suggest starting with the two pack (item #3042).

👉 Dried organic wolfberries ( item # 6360) are also a super healthy snack:
🍓15% protein by weight
🍓Contains over 21 essential minerals (including magnesium and potassium)
🍓18 amino acids
🍓Healthy (and substantial) amounts of vitamin B1, B3, C, calcium, and beta carotene.
🍓21% fiber by weight (more than oatbran or buckwheat)

They are easily substitutable for any recipe that normally calls for raisins or dried cranberries!

Our NingXia Red is made with wolfberry puree and other antioxidant rich fruits, so we are getting a healthy liquid source of all of the above!

I hope you found all of this as fascinating as I did… I had fun learning alongside you!

You can grow wolfberries elsewhere (and lots of places do!), but they’ll never hold a nutritional candle to the wolfberry from the Yellow River flood plain in NingXia, China!

Immune System Support

Liz James · July 10, 2020 ·

“People have failed to trust their own immune systems and common sense. We know the things that are most useful in assuring that our immune systems are able to operate with peak efficiency:
🍏 Healthy Diet
😴 Adequate Sleep
💪 Regular Exercise
🌞 Regular Exposure to the sun
Taking supplemental Vitamin D and Vitamin C (naturally sourced) and Zinc
Managing stress
Community (which includes worship and gathering together)
Reasonable hygiene (not excessively wiping everything down)”
~ Kelly Victory, MD


We have the tools my friends! Every single one of us has the tools above! 
Thankfully, if you feel you have some catching up to do, or need some immune enhancements, Young Living has the bonus tools for your toolkit. 
👉Thieves
👉 Immupro
👉 NingXia Red
….. these are just a few that quickly come to mind. 
Living a healthy life isn’t an afterthought. The best time to start is right now!

Game Changer

Liz James · July 7, 2020 ·

5 years and 23 days ago I went into surgery thinking I was going to come out an amputee. Frankly, the fact that I was “only” going to lose my left foot was an emotional relief to me…. it could have been much much worse, and more important body parts could have been damaged if things had gone differently.
I know it may sound strange, but I was at peace with the future of a prosthetic (even before the actual complete removal of my foot had taken place). That may account for my literal disappointment when I woke up from surgery and saw my toes peeking out from a well bandaged lower leg…… I knew I was in for a rocky road ahead. Severed tendons, a broken bone, significant soft tissue and connective tissue damage (along with a statement from my surgeon that I’d probably walk with a limp for the rest of my life) did not give much hope for living pain free.
And yet… here I am 🙌🙌🙌…. 5 years and 23 days later…. doing all the things I did before my run in with the bull. Frankly, I’m even more active than I was. Farm chores 👩‍🌾 5K’s, regular gym Boot Camp workouts 💪 (thank you Fit Body Boot camp), hiking up a glacier, teaching yoga…. ALL these things without pain or impaired flexibility. 
Diet, exercise (motion is lotion!), focusing on increased flexibility, clean water intake, toxin free living……. all these are important in recovery and also pain and inflammation management.
The icing on the cake tho….. the special tools in the toolbox…. are these: Agilease or BLM + Sulfurzyme.
Because I had significant bone and ligament damage, I take BLM + Sulfurzyme daily…. every day….. 365 days a year.
I live my life pain free. Yup. Not a day with pain for this gal.  🙌🙌🙌
2 SULFURZYME TWICE A DAY.
1 BLM TWICE A DAY.
👆Game changers for my life 👆…. Because life is too short to spend it sitting on the bench (or on the porch)! 😉
Haven’t tried these yet, and you’re sitting on the sidelines? What are you waiting for? Life is short friends …. make the most of it!

Good Days Bad Days

Liz James · July 7, 2020 ·

Facebook is so kind… it always asks “What’s on your mind?” whenever I venture in. (As if they care😶. Believe me, they don’t condone my view of the current narrative😉)
These three things have been consuming quite a bit of my time these days… what about you? What’s something that’s consuming quite a bit of your time (good or bad) these days?
