Inflammation

14 Day Reset

Liz James · March 10, 2023 ·

Good morning friends! I wanted to share a video from a group that I am co-facilitating. It’s called the 14 Day Reset.
Reset what…. you might ask? πŸ€” Well, sometimes we get so used to feeling “off” it becomes normalized to each of us. In fact, you may have gone to the doctor and been told “everything is fine”, and though you may not feel fine, you’ve just been told that “not feeling fine” is normal….. (It’s not! ), and so many people just attribute this to aging and normal wear and tear on the body.
God made us fearfully and wonderfully. He also made us as an incredible healing machine…. IF the body has the opportunity to do so. This means giving the body the nutrition and tools it needs and removing the toxins that are causing the body harm which show up as clues making you feel “off”, perhaps in multiple ways.
What does feeling “off” feel like? That answer will be different for each of us, so maybe a better question is this….. what should we feel like day to day?
happy, calm, not anxious or πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«πŸ₯΄πŸ₯±πŸ˜’πŸ₯Ίall at once
clear minded with an increase in focus
having the energy πŸ’ͺπŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί to complete the day’s tasks
a decrease or absence πŸ™Œ of chronic pain
a gut that willing pumps out 2-3 πŸ’©a day
and more! 🌞 (weight loss may be an added perk!)
Now, a 14 Day Reset is a starting point. Perhaps you take the information you learn, and decide to make what you glean a lifestyle because you feel so much better. It takes more than 14 days to change a habit and Rome wasn’t built in a day (nor was it destroyed in a day!), but if these 14 days give you a glimpse that it just might be possible to feel great again….. would you put skin in the game?
The 14 Day Reset group came together because collectively, we saw a need for this. It is free, though you’ll need NingXia Red ….(102 oz total for 14 days) to join the group (The NR starter bundle…. #42763 satisfies this). Please send me a screenshot of your order, and I’ll get you added to the 14 Day Reset Community.
We’ll be addressing mind, body, and spirit health together. πŸ₯°
( If you do not yet have a Young Living account of your own, but would like to try this challenge, you can create an account here: https://bit.ly/3oFccZj and then message me that you’ve done so and I’ll get you added!)
NOTE: this is a YL Family event…. ALL are welcome but you will need to message me a picture of your placed order for NingXia Red.

March Young Living Freebies

Liz James · March 1, 2023 ·

Happy March 1st friends! I love waking up on the first of each month and taking a peek at our gifts with purchase each month. It’s a little like Christmas 12 times a year! 😍The YL gift pickers always do such a great job of reflecting the season with what they gift us.
Β 
Springtime typically means ALOT more outdoor activities, and that Golden Turmeric will come in very handy for sore muscles and joints. We have a decent sized garden and blackberry vineyard (which means hours and hours of manual labor…. we garden the YL way…. pulling weeds by hand πŸ‘©β€πŸ”§πŸ‘¨β€πŸ”§…. no toxic chemicals here!) Danette Goodyear taught me a little trick a few years back….. I flavor my yogurt with it….. yummy!
Β 
I don’t know a single person who doesn’t love Lushious Lemon essential oil blend. It is, quite simply, fresh and happy! It’s a great year round diffused oil choice…. it will make everyone happy (literally! You just can’t be grumpy with that aroma in the air πŸ˜‰)
Β 
March Texas weather is erratic β˜€οΈπŸŒ¬β›ˆβ„οΈπŸŒ€ (to say the least!), and the Steeped Vitality Orange Rose Hip Black Tea is a nice morning ritual for me, especially on the cold mornings we’re still having randomly. I’m almost out, and I love that they must have checked my pantry supply before they made their gift with purchase list πŸ€ͺ! Tea leaves are one of the most chemically processed natural drinks we expose ourselves to (coffee beans too)….. which is why it’s so important to drink organically. We can rest assured that YL teas (Slique Tea is another favorite of mine) are clean alternatives to what is out there.
Β 
And seriously…. they must have known. I’m down to about an 1/8 of a bottle of the BALANCE Face Cleanser, and that was something I was going to add to my YL order this month… I was thinking about this when I was in the shower this morning. Now I can use that money to order something else I need, and still get the BALANCE for free! ( BTW, I am LOVING the Bloom essential oil blend as a face serum before putting makeup on. It was free last month… is anyone else using it and loving it too? )
Β 
And finally….. those 10 Loyalty Reward Points (when you place a 100PV Loyalty Rewards order)….. Points = product = money saved for something else. If you aren’t utilizing the Loyalty Rewards program, you are missing out on one of the most economical ways to get what you need.
Β 
What’s your gifted fave this month?

The Southern Side of the Endocrine System: Diabetes – part 2

Liz James · September 28, 2022 ·

There are times it’s not good to be Number One. This is one of those times. The United States is recognized as being among the nations with the best medical technology and the newest and best drugs. We spend more per person on healthcare than any nation in the entire world, so we should be among the healthiest, right? Yet, for all that we have, the USA has the worst health outcomes.. We are #1 in diabetes, #2 in neurodegenerative diseases, #5 in cancer, and #6 in cardiovascular disease (source: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development).
An estimated 1 in 3 American adults have prediabetes or metabolic syndrome (both are precursors to Type II diabetes). It’s a common but flawed thought that Type II diabetes only affects β€œfluffy” people. It doesn’t. There is a relatively new medical acronym called TOFI, which means “Thin on the Outside, Fat on the Inside”, and TOFI individuals can be just as much at risk as their fluffy counterparts. Lifestyle choices will always be the first line of defense to avoid acquiring a Type II diabetes diagnosis (or succeeding in backwalking out of one).
An astute detective will need some internal monitoring tools to more closely assess clues. Health thieves can be very stealth, and this is a reliable way to monitor gang movement before they leave visible gang β€œtags” (clues). Forewarned is forearmed! Think of this as another tangible aspect of your body’s security monitoring system.
Β 
Here’s what you’ll need:
  • An at home blood pressure cuff (every home should have one anyway!)
  • Know your waist circumference (measure at just above the hip bone, level with the belly button)
  • Know your family history. Remember that though genetics are important, they play less than a 10% role in outcome. Environment, lifestyle choices, and emotional tendencies control the other 90%. It’s important to know family history so that we can each be vigilant for what we suspect may be lurking in the shadows…. Knowing the health thief tendency (genetics) may be awaiting the right opportunity to steal, kill and destroy. I find a great deal of peace knowing that 90% of gene expression is fully under my own control!
  • Get labwork annually which (at the very least) includes the following pieces of information:
    • Complete metabolic panel (CMP)
    • A basic lipid panel
    • Uric Acid and Homocysteine
    • Fasting insulin, fasting glucose, and HbA1c
    • The combined total of these tests will run about $250 well spent dollars out of pocket. If you have insurance, these are the tests to ask your doctor for when looking for a metabolic syndrome or prediabetes health thief.
    • NOTE: There is more labwork I’d suggest for a comprehensive look at the body from the inside out…. The above recommendation is specific for monitoring both prediabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Signs of metabolic syndrome and prediabetes nearly always predate diabetic symptoms. Once you have your lab work, and have gathered your other tools, you’re ready to take a hard look at the state of the union of your body. Signs of metabolic dysfunction show up in the following ways:
  • Evidence of fatty liver
  • High blood pressure
  • High uric acid and homocysteine levels
  • High lipids in blood
  • High fasting insulin, HbA1c, and blood glucose
  1. Monitor your blood pressure. For a week, take it before you go to bed, and again before you get out of bed in the morning. If nighttime and morning blood pressure is higher than it should be, cut out all forms of sugar for a week, and retest. Sugar is highly inflammatory and often drives blood pressure upwards. Normal blood pressure runs 90-120 systolic (top number) and 60-80 diastolic (bottom number). High blood pressure is a symptom, not a root cause!
  2. An increased waist circumference (males should be under 40 inches and females should be under 35) is suggestive of inflammation, probable leaky gut, mitochondrial dysfunction, and insulin resistance.
  3. Uric acid and homocysteine are inflammatory markers. Levels are elevated if uric acid is over 5.5 mg/ml and homocysteine is over 10 umol/ L. High uric acid levels lead to a fatty liver. Sugar is a big contributor to this. High homocysteine levels indicate an increased risk for developing heart disease and vascular inflammation. Methylated B12 and methylated folate, omega 3’s ( OmegaGize3 is a great option), and optimized use of Vit D3 are all helpful tools in supporting healthy homocysteine levels.
  4. Within your CMP, you’ll look for two numbers corresponding to AST and ALT. ALT is a liver enzyme which is fairly accurate for assessing fatty liver. If that number is over 25, more investigation is needed. AST is another liver enzyme. If it’s elevated (over 34) it may also indicate fatty liver (it also elevates when exposed to too much acetaminophen, alcohol, certain meds such as statins, and infection….. So do take that into consideration). If both are elevated, it’s definitely time to take a hard look at sugar and alcohol consumption.
  5. Fasting glucose by itself is not enough, and sadly it’s often the only thing that is tested routinely. HbA1c is a window into the last 3 months of glucose control within the body. Fasting insulin indicates how well the pancreas is actually able to keep up. Optimally, fasting glucose should be 70-85 mg/dL, HbA1c should be less than 5.4%, and fasting insulin should be less than 6 uIU/mL. Once you have those numbers, you’ll plug them into this equation: fasting glucose x fasting insulin divided by 405. Your answer to this equation is your assessed risk for developing diabetes. Less than 2.8 is excellent, 4.3 is average, and anything higher is a flag that mayhem is likely already occurring.
  6. When you are looking at your lipid panel, zero in on 3 different clues. The first is the ratio of triglycerides to HDL. Studies have found that if this number is over 2.5 in the Caucasian population or 1.5 in the African American population, it tends to correlate with metabolic syndrome.
The second thing to look at is HDL, the type of cholesterol that is considered β€œhealthy” cholesterol. If it’s between 60-85, it’s generally a sign of good cardiovascular health. If the number is under 40 in men or under 50 for women, there is a greater chance of developing heart disease (a component of both metabolic syndrome and cohort of Type II diabetes). If the number is over 85, there’s a distinct possibility that HDL has a dysfunctional component.
The third thing to evaluate is your LDL cholesterol. If it’s between 100 and 300, look at your triglycerides. β€œIf triglycerides are over 150, metabolic syndrome may be assumed until proven otherwise. β€œ (Those wise words are from Dr. Robert Lustig MD and his brilliant book Metabolical)
Isn’t it prudent to avoid dark alleys and always lock your car? The same can be said for paying attention to these health clues. If the numbers above look like a dark avenue you’re not wanting to go down, here are some tips and tricks for avoiding shady areas!
  • Cut back on carbs and sugar. Eat a low sugar high fiber diet. If you are not getting enough fiber in your diet, add YL’s ICP Daily, Balance Complete, or Power Meal to your nutrition world. Fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels by slowing down the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
  • Avoid high fructose corn syrup like it’s the plague….. Because it is! It is a strong inducer of insulin resistance. When you start reading labels, you’ll be surprised at how many places it hides in plain sight.
  • Avoid energy drinks that combine caffeine with fructose. That combination can aggravate insulin resistance and glucose intolerance. Use NingXia NitroΒ for a cleaner energy boost option. Try pairing Nitro with diffusing or wearing the essential oil blend En-R-Gee.
  • Exercise! Many studies have shown that weight loss and exercise can increase the body’s sensitivity to insulin.
  • Diet matters just as much as exercise. A person will never be able to out run, out supplement, or out medicate a bad diet!
  • Consider intermittent fasting. (If you are already on medication for diabetes treatment, you’ll want to talk to your holistically minded health professional before incorporating intermittent fasting into your routine). At the very least, stop eating 3-4 hours before your head hits the pillow at night.
  • Know your labs, and don’t be afraid to ask for them by name!
  • Watch your commercial dairy intake. There is a big difference between commercial pasteurized and homogenized dairy and raw dairy. The former is well known for the amount of inflammation it can cause within the body.
  • Work towards decreasing inflammation within the body. Sulfurzyme not only helps support normal metabolic function within the body, it also helps regulate a more normal inflammatory response. It is one of my top five Young Living Supplements that I cannot imagine life without.
  • Take an excellent highly bioavailable multivitamin such as Master Formula. Not all vitamins sold are bioavailable to the body.
  • Incorporate insulin modulating foods into your diet. Cinnamon, oat bran, fiber, ginger, barley grass (found in Multigreens), spirulina (found in Multigreens and NingXia Greens), chaga mushrooms, rosemary, green tea, cranberries, blueberries, lemon balm (Melissa), holy basil (tulsi), carrots, broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, cucumbers, cabbage and salad greens. Healthy whole grain foods such as YL Einkorn products, quinoa, whole oats or oatmeal, and brown rice are also helpful, as are avocados, olive oil, and nuts and seeds. Cacao (natural chocolate) may also help regulate blood sugar levels according to a 2017 study.
  • Regular cold exposure also appears to help improve insulin sensitivity. Interestingly, Type II diabetes is positively associated with living in ambient temperature climates. Get your health care professional’s blessing if you have a medical condition (ex: high blood pressure or heart disease) that is being actively treated before partaking in cold showers, cold plunging, or cryotherapy.
  • Know your iron and ferritin lab values: According to a few studies, it would appear that iron levels that are too high have been positively associated with insulin resistance.
  • Take a closer look at adding turmeric to your routine. It has been found to be a helpful supplement to those who are taking the medication Metformin, and has supportive effects on blood glucose, oxidative stress and inflammation. (YL’s Golden Turmeric is my go to for a turmeric supplement!)
  • Vitamin B12 in the form of methylcobalamin to support a healthy homocysteine levels.
  • Antioxidants! (NingXia Red and Super C)- A 2007 study in the Journal of Hypertension found that people who took adequate levels of Vitamin C had a 13% lower risk of developing diabetes.
  • Approximately 75-80% of US residents are deficient in magnesium. A deficiency in magnesium sets the body up for both insulin resistance and gout (the official diagnosis for the painful symptoms of high uric acid levels in the body).
  • While it’s important to avoid as many toxins in daily living as possible, make a special effort to avoid atrazine (an herbicide commonly used on corn) and pesticides in general. Eat organically to avoid these.
  • Give up the night owl tendencies. Research has found that those who stay up late have a reduced ability to use fat for energy. When fat isn’t used appropriately in the body, it becomes fodder for health thieves. Work towards being in bed by 10pm.
There is so much more to prediabetes, Type II diabetes, and metabolic syndrome…..more than I could possibly write here. Hopefully though, I’ve given you food for thought and a desire to learn more. If so, do some digging and think outside the box! The more you know, the more health empowered you’ll be. We have full control of this part of our health story. How will you choose to write yours?

The Southern Side of the Endocrine System: Pancreas Part I

Liz James · August 24, 2022 ·

Β 
β€œThe pancreas is my favorite organ.” Says no one (almost) ever. Seriously.
Β 
Unless someone has an existing pancreatic malady, this is one organ that gets very little attention. That’s a shame too… because with the exception of the rarer cases of genetics, infection, or blunt force trauma, nearly all pancreatic dysfunction is self induced. It’s time to bring this odd little organ out of its sandwiched space between the stomach and small intestine and figure out what makes it tick and tremble.
The pancreas has two main jobs: to produce chemicals which help regulate blood sugar, and to produce enzymes which help further digest food and bicarbonate which will further neutralize any stomach acid that has found its way into the small intestine. For being a rather underappreciated organ, if any of these tasks falls by the wayside, there are big consequences.
Β 
Pancreatitis (both chronic and acute) accounts for more than 360,000 hospital stays each year…. A number that continues to rise.😒
The lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer is currently 1 in 64 ….. A number that continues to rise.😒
The lifetime risk of acquiring diabetes is now roughly 1 in 3 adults….. And that number too has only continued to rise.😒
Β 
The problem is that the pancreas squeaks out tiny little β€œhelp me’s”, and few people take the time to learn and put clues together and then go on to correct the course of personal health history. True, the clues are not necessarily ones that will beat you over the head with a two by four, but they ARE there, nonetheless, and only you, the astute sleuth will likely see them or feel them.
Β 
Have you ever been out to eat with someone who won’t sit with their back to the door? Chances are, they have been well trainedπŸ§‘β€βœˆοΈ to observe their environment so they won’t be taken off guard by an offender who has ill intent.
Β 
This is how we guard the pancreas… watching for environmental clues that endanger that little organ, and then blocking their entry into our personal space that we do have control over. None of us wants to be the 1 in 3, the 1 in 64, or the 1 in 100.
Β 
Environmental contributors to pancreatic distress include:
πŸ”ŽHeavy alcohol consumption or diagnosis of cirrhosis
πŸ”ŽA high fat, heavily processed food diet
πŸ”ŽObesity
πŸ”ŽTobacco products
πŸ”ŽAbdominal surgery where the pancreas may have had interrupted blood supply
πŸ”ŽNutritional deficiencies including (especially) vitamins A, D, E, and K and selenium
πŸ”ŽA history of infection such as hepatitis, Epstein-Barr Virus (Mononucleosis), Lyme disease, or Cytomegalovirus.
πŸ”ŽA prior history of autoimmune disorder: especially celiac, irritable bowel disease, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or Sjogren’s Syndrome.
πŸ”ŽA history of gallstones
πŸ”ŽLab work that reveals high triglycerides
πŸ”ŽAbdominal trauma
πŸ”ŽDamage to specific molars (those that are pertinent to pancreatic health and wellness… go back and re-read Chapter 7 in BYOHD Volume I)
πŸ”ŽLong standing emotions and feelings closely associated with pancreatic distress including: guilt, shame, insecurities, frustration, joylessness, fear of rejection, and lowered self esteem.
πŸ”ŽMany medications: More than 500 drugs have been reported by the World Health Organization database as causative agents for pancreatic distress. Common offenders include synthetic estrogens (birth control pills and hormone replacement therapy), opiates, steroids, many classes of antibiotics, diuretics furosemide and HCTZ, acetaminophen, and the blood pressure medication enalapril. The vaccinations formulated to prevent mumps (MMR and MMRV) have also been implicated in causing complications with the pancreas in some people.
Perhaps there hasn’t been a vigilant awareness until now, and the environmental offenders have already gotten through the door and gotten a little rowdy with the pancreas, and it’s been roughed up a bit. What would that look like?
When you have a handful of the following clues, you can be fairly certain they have been up to mischief that needs help or correcting.
πŸ”ŽDiarrhea or bloating
πŸ”ŽUnexplained weight loss
πŸ”ŽSigns of malnutrition (lab work can identify this)
πŸ”ŽOily, foul smelling stools that are clay or pale in color and tend to float
πŸ”ŽPoor blood sugar control
πŸ”ŽBlurred vision
πŸ”ŽOccasional abdominal pain that worsens after a high fat meal
πŸ”ŽOccasional abdominal pain that may be worse if lying flat on the back
πŸ”ŽFatigue
πŸ”ŽChronically dry lips (according to Chinese medicine)
Β 
Do not hesitate to contact your favorite health professional if you’ve checked the majority of these clues or also have fever or unrelenting abdominal pain!
Thankfully, there are MANY things that may be done to support a healthy pancreas:
πŸ’œEat a healthy varied diet rich in fruit and vegetables, white fish and meats, grass fed beef, foods high in iron, foods that are rich in antioxidants….. Cherries, blueberries, spinach, YL wolfberries, tomatoes, bell peppers, NingXia Red.
πŸ’œIncorporate digestive enzymes into your daily routine. (Amylase, lipase, and protease are commonly referred to as pancreatic enzymes, and are found in Essentialzymes-4, Detoxzyme and Allerzyme, or pancreatin and pancrealipase found in Essentialzyme.
πŸ’œAvoid opiates as a source of chronic pain management. There are MANY more effective ways to manage pain including scientifically proven meditation, relaxation exercises, acupuncture, yoga, and massage. Supportive supplements to consider include Sulfurzyme, BLM or Agilease, and Golden Turmeric, and essential oils PanAway, Deep Relief, Frankincense, Palo Santo, Helichrysum, Dorado Azul, Valerian, Peppermint, Copaiba, and Idaho Grand Fir. Reishi mushrooms ( found in NingXia Greens and Immupro) help support normal inflammatory and immune system response, especially when used with regularity.
πŸ’œSupport the pancreas nutritionally with OmgaGize3 (for Omega 3’s), and an excellent multivitamin ( Master Formula ) that contains selenium, and vitamins A, D, E, and K and Vitamin B12 (Super B).
πŸ’œIncorporate MCT (Coconut oil) oil into the diet. It doesn’t burden the pancreas the way many other oils do, and it has properties which are helpful to inflammatory conditions.
πŸ’œGreen Tea (found in Young Living’s Vanilla Lemongrass Tea)
πŸ’œAchieving and keeping a healthy weight. Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. Often simply losing 5-10 lbs is extraordinarily helpful to pancreas function.
πŸ’œKeep a close eye on triglyceride levels (optimally, they should be between 50-90mg/dL), and adjust the diet accordingly.
πŸ’œAdd natural sources of glutamine into the diet: bone broth, grass fed whey protein, grass fed raw dairy, venison, organic poultry, spirulina (found in both Multigreens and NingXia Greens), cabbage, asparagus, and broccoli.
πŸ’œImprove levels of melatonin in the body! (Immupro or Sleep Essence if supplemental help is needed). There are some compelling studies on the protection melatonin appears to give to the pancreas.
πŸ’œIncrease intake of antioxidants (easily done with NingXia Red or NingXia Greens)
πŸ’œAlkalinize the body with Apple Cider Vinegar and/or Alkalime
Pancreatic Insufficiency, Pancreatitis, and Pancreatic cancer are all three very stealth dysfunctions. The obvious problem with stealth is that they are able to cause a fair bit of dysfunction before the problem is large enough to warrant medical attention. Chronic inflammation of the pancreas is a leading cause of pancreatic cancer, and this form of cancer has a very poor survival rate. All the more reason to keep your pancreas well loved and protected. Taking a quick glance at your stoolsπŸ’© before they go down the porcelain highway and doing an honest environmental and habit assessment is so important!🧐
Β 
Roughly 98% of the pancreas is devoted to the job of supplying the body with digestive assistance. The other 2% is devoted to managing blood sugar levels…. And that’s what I’ll bring to the table next: the pancreas and diabetes.

Trans Fatty Acids

Liz James · August 23, 2022 ·

Fantastic book/chapter on Trans Fatty Acid (Nutrition and Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases) ….. otherwise known as the vegetable oil most fast foods are cooked with.
I’m only able to include the link for the teaser without getting into trouble for posting “paid for” material. Nonetheless, there are nuggets just in the teaser.
Trans Fatty Acids are consistently associated with coronary heart disease, as well as sudden death.
Other things TFA’s are good at? πŸ€”
🧐raising triglycerides (one of the reasons triglycerides are often thought of as the “tattletale” on a lipid panel… it is a marker (usually) of the junk someone is consuming.
🧐lowering HDL while raising LDL ( what we think of as “good” vs “bad” cholesterol)
🧐raising lipoprotein(a): the worst type of LDL that increases risk for blood clots
🧐promoting generalized body inflammation
🧐promoting insulin resistance (which leads to diabetes)
🧐visceral fat (no amount of working out to compensate for diet will get rid of this so you can eat junk and still have 6pack abs)
🧐 heart arrythmias
Why are they even allowed in the food industry? πŸ₯΄ Good question! Follow the money. They are cheap, and increase shelf stability of products, making something “stay fresh (ha!)” longer.
You can read what is free to read here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/…/neuros…/trans-fatty-acid
Know better. Do better. Be better.
Take care of that temple….. it’s the only one we’ve got!
