During the cold of winter, particularly in the northern third of the country, the changed angle of the sun’s rays plus more time spent indoors or bundled up while outdoors make getting enough of the sunshine vitamin naturally almost impossible.
Numerous studies have linked Vitamin D deficiencies to chronic inflammation and illness. Simply taking a supplement of this vital nutrient can dramatically reduce inflammation and related pain for those not getting enough through sunshine and diet.
As one example of how powerful a Vitamin D supplement can be, a study of lower back pain sufferers with no obvious cause of pain found 83% had a Vitamin D deficiency. By supplementing with Vitamin D, every single patient originally diagnosed with a deficiency experienced an improvement in symptoms. Interestingly, 95% of all patients benefitted from supplementation regardless of their initial Vitamin D levels.
This winter, beat winter’s aches and pains by increasing your Vitamin D intake. Start with 3,000-10,000 IU daily for a month if already in pain, then continue with 1,000-3,000 IU daily.
When choosing your supplement, look for one which uses Vitamin D3, known as cholecalciferol. This form metabolizes differently and can be as much as 3 times more effective than Vitamin D2 in raising levels of Vitamin D in the body and maintains those higher levels longer.
Remember the litmus test from high school chemistry lab? You stuck a small strip of litmus paper into a solution, and if it turned red, it meant the solution was acidic. If it turned blue, the solution was basic (alkaline).
Well, the body has its own sort of litmus test: It’s called your pH level. And many healthcare professionals consider a balanced pH level to be the key to good health. In fact, an unbalanced pH can cause chronic back pain as well as a host of other problems.
You can eat all these pure, organic foods and you still won’t get a vital nutrient – enzymes.
The problem is that most people including doctors don’t know that enzymes are just as important as vitamins. As a result, there’s a nationwide epidemic of diseases that could be prevented by enzyme supplements.
Proteolytic (protein-eating) enzymes are the number two pain reliever in Germany after aspirin. But unlike pain drugs, they’re completely safe. You’ll see proof in a new Special Report called The Missing Ingredient for Good Health. The report introduces you to a mother whose lifelong migraine headaches disappeared thanks to enzyme supplements.
No wonder German athletes take them by the millions! Placebo-controlled studies show that athletes recover from injuries in half the time when they take enzymes. But there’s more. .
Enzymes can help save you from heart and artery disease
In published medical studies, they outperformed prescription blood clot drugs and – this is really amazing – nine out of ten children with autism experienced “very great or impressive” improvement after they started enzyme supplements.
Does it sound incredible that one supplement can do all this? Then ask yourself this: What if you had NO vitamins in your diet — none at all? You’d be very sick. Enzymes are just as important.
In The Missing Ingredient, you’ll discover how proteolytic enzymes DOUBLED the five-year survival rates for women with breast cancer. A man with kidney cancer was given 50 days to live — but he was alive and well 15 years later thanks to enzymes. A woman with metastatic breast cancer – a “death sentence” – was alive and well 16 years later.
