. very sad news at Blu today - our fish "Chaya" has passed away. She was a few months short of 3 years- old. Yes a "beta fish" but she had personality and was loved.
. Don't buy it! I'm a big fan of Mr. Kevin Trudeau but I was sorely disappointed in his new book "The Weight Loss Cure." While it has a lot of useful information, it is not practical for the average person. So save your money and I will give you some excerpts from his book.
. drink one large glass of water immediately upon arising, and one- half to one gallon throughout the day. Spring water is the best. Stay away from tap water.
. walk for one hour per day. Walk outside.
. take 2 teaspoons of extra virgin raw cocount oil per day. Stimulates metabolism, improves digestion and helps release fat cells.
. eat two organic apples a day. Apples cleanse your live, gallbladder and colon.
. eat two organic grapefruits a day. Enzymes in grapefruit are proven to release fat.
. colonics (lose 5 to 20 pounds by cleaning your colon) He recommends 15 in 30 days however that doesn't sound like fun!
. take one tablespoon of raw organic apple cider vinegar 3 times daily. Cleanses the internal organs.
. cleanse your colon ( The Almighty Cleanse or The Seven-Day Miracle Cleanse or The Pure Body Institute Body Cleanse or the Dual Action Cleanse)
. eliminate candida yeast overgrowth. I'm a fan of this product: ThreeLac. Buy some now at www.123candida.com
. drink one cup of green tea and one cup of Organic Yerba Mate tea daily.
. sweating is good for you and it helps release toxins. If you can spend time in a sauna do it!
. sleep! Lack of sleep can lead to obesity. The "healing hormones" your body needs are released between 11p.m. and 2 a.m.
. spend time in the sun. Lack of sunlight can lead to depression, overeating, increase in appetite, low metabolism and weight gain.
. get massaged, do yoga, take digestive enzymes, get a parasite and liver cleanse, breathe, lift weights, abstain from drugs, eat six times a day, eat dinner before 6 p.m., eat salad with lunch and dinner, no high fructose corn syrup, no trans fat, no fast foods, no farm raised fish, eat only organic meat and dairy products.
. buy a rebounder www.ultimate-rebound.com . Rebounding is the only exercise that stimulates and exercises every cell in the body. The best part is that 10 minutes a day will give miraculous physical and mental health benefits.
. get rid of your microwave. Food that is microwaved has been chemically altered into an unnatural state and can affect blood cell counts and hormonal imbalances.
. MSG ( No Monosodium Glutamate) is the enemy.
. what makes you fat? Artificial sweetners such as NutraSweet, Splenda, aspartame, sucrolos, and saccrin.
. buy a shower filter. Research shows when you take a shower your body absorbs more toxins than if you drank eight glasses of the same water. Unfiltered water is loaded with fluoride, chlorine and hundreds of other contaminants.
. fluorescent lights cause chemical reactions in the brain that produces fatigue and depression.
. buy some AlphaCalm. Take one capsule two times daily. Powerful and effective product for reducing stress and promoting relaxation. www.alphacalm.com
. get a daily shot HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin)
My health tip: go dancing, sing and laugh!
I was disappointed in his book as well. While I started to read his book, I started jotting down what to follow and gave up after I had 24 of his suggestions and was still writing - I realized that this was a pretty long list of things to do and that I would have to remind myself on my daily things to do list to remember to follow my things to do list from Trudeau - haha!! Thanks for highlighting the topics =)

I would definitely recommend Infrared Saunas to anyone - they are fantastic!!
Colonics - while you definitely loose weight (I lost 10lbs. from them) it's extremely painful and stressful procedure. I would avoid them and use only for an absolute last resort.
Rebounders are EXCELLENT!!! I would highly recommend to anyone too.

Ladies out there... before doing any sort of body cleansing or taking any supplements make sure they don't effect any medication you are taking, ESPECIALLY BIRTH CONTROL. Even eating excess amount of grape fruit juice will effect birth control. Please be careful when taking any diet advice from anyone that doesn't understand your full medical background. Please post a disclaimer to this blog entry.
