Journal #2: The 8 Keys to Great Health!

Apply these simple principles in your life and you will significantly increase your health and
wellbeing!

1. This is all about putting great quality fresh alive foods into your body.

Make sure a large proportion (ideally 50-70%) of your diet is fresh/raw fruit and vegetables. Eat a variety
of foods and cut down on red meats. Avoid fried foods, fatty foods. TIP: Eating slowly causes saliva to aid
the digestion process which results in better absorption of vitamins and minerals and also less stress.

2. Keeping active is a key requirement for good health.

Your body needs at least 30 minutes of exercise three times per week. “Those who cannot find time for
exercise will have to find time for illness” TIP: Arranging set times each week to exercise with a friend or
spouse will make sure you do not miss out.

3. Our bodies need 8 glasses (2 Litres) of pure water a day.

Tea, coffee, juice, flavoured waters do not count! TIP: Have a sipper bottle with you all day – that way it
is beside you when you need it and you can make sure you are getting 8 glasses (2 Litres) a day. Have 2
glasses of water with a squeeze of lemon first thing
in the morning to clear out your system.

4. The sun has many healing and rejuvenating properties.

You feel so good when you get some sunshine. Experts believe we need at least 10 minutes of sun on our
arms as a minimum per day! TIP: If you are every unwell or sick see what a difference half an hour out in
the sun makes.

5. Temperance is a word that means having balance in the good things of life and
avoiding the bad things in life.

We all know that drugs, cigarettes and alcohol are bad for our health. Our bodies are much better off if we
minimise or avoid them altogether! TIP: If you want to quit any bad habit you need to support and
encouragement of a spouse or a close friend.

6. Good clean air is necessary for your body.

Breath deeply and slowly. Many people are fast shallow breathers. The optimal number of breaths per
minute is around 6-10. If you breathe faster than this you need to focus on slowing down. As much as
possible get out into the county and breath fresh, clean air. TIP: Sleep with the window open and you will
get a better nights sleep. Take 10 big breaths when you get up in the morning to oxygenate
your blood!

7. Most people generally need 8 hours per night.

If you are not waking feeling refreshed and rested you need to get to bed earlier. A consistent sleep
pattern is good for the body – the same time to bed each night. TIP: Some experts say the hours before
midnight are worth double for sleep. Get to bed earlier if you can.

8. This is all about the mental and spiritual side of health.

Make sure that you go to bed each night free from stress and worry. If not, deal with the issues. If you
are harboring any grudges or are not at peace with anyone, make things right. Keep fully focused and on
track with your long term goals.

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Provides Better Data For Evaluation

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX), widely used by lung specialists, helps

manage heart disease, particularly in those with chronic heart failure, according
to a new American Heart Association scientific statement.

CPX is a non-invasive and objective method to evaluate heart and lung function.
It provides physicians data on gas exchanges in the lungs at rest and during
exercise and yields breath-by-breath measures of oxygen uptake. Combining
these findings with data traditionally obtained by cardiologists from treadmill or
bicycle tests - such as heart rate, blood pressure and electrocardiogram changes
- provides information that can yield a more comprehensive evaluation, said
Gary J. Balady, M.D., professor of medicine at Boston University and chair of the
expert panel that wrote the statement.

"Cardiopulmonary testing is generally readily available, and it has great utility in

clinical practice for people with heart and lung disease," he said. "Your peak
fitness level is measured by oxygen uptake, and fitness is the most important
prognostic variable of any data we can get from an exercise tolerance test."

Although CPX has long been used to assess athletic performance and in
research, its burgeoning value in the clinical setting prompted the American
Heart Association to convene a group of experts to write its first comprehensive
cardiopulmonary exercise testing guide for heart specialists. The new statement,
published in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association, is a
supplement to the association's existing guidelines for exercise testing.

"There has been limited or absent training of cardiovascular specialists on the

administration and interpretation of CPX, and a lack of understanding of its
value," Balady said. "However, modern CPX systems allow for simple and
complex analyses of these data that are easy to retrieve and store, which makes
CPX available for widespread use."

The statement covers the usefulness of CPX in cardiovascular disease, selecting

procedures, patient monitoring, device calibration, maintenance and quality
control.

"The purpose of the statement is to acquaint clinicians with what is going on with
exercise testing," said Martha Gulati, M.D., co-author of the study and assistant
professor of medicine and preventive medicine at Northwestern University's
Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago. "It has really evolved, but if you ask
many physicians, all they know is that it diagnoses ischemia."

Cardiac exercise stress tests, typically done using a treadmill, require physicians
to estimate the patient's oxygen uptake, using regression-analysis formulas.
Even then, the best estimates can be inaccurate by about 10 percent or more,
particularly if handrail support is used.
REACTION:

This cardiopulmonary exercise testing is very beneficial to all of us not

only to those people who has a cardiac problem. It is very useful in
assessing heart failure patients. According to the guidelines, peak
oxygen uptake is useful in these patients to
determine the severity of the disease, it also help determine whether
heart failure is causing shortness of breath, a common ailment of lung
disease, identify candidates for heart transplantation or other
advanced treatments, assess whether new drugs or devices are
effective, and help physicians design exercise programs.

The emerging uses of CPX in heart patients include predicting

hospitalization or death for adults with congenital heart disease,
diagnosing ischemic heart disease, evaluating cardiac pacemakers,
particularly pacemakers used by younger or more physically active
patients, who may require optimal rate response settings.

The nice part about cardiopulmonary testing is that it provides

excellent, objective data on the functioning of an individual's heart and
lung capacity. This guideline is geared toward individuals who take
care of heart disease because it improves their cardiopulmonary
fitness to the same extent.

“GUYABANO” also known as "THE SOURSOP"

The Soursop or Guyabano is the fruit from the Graviola tree that is a miraculous natural
cancer cell killer. 10,000 times stronger than Chemo.

Why are we not aware of this? It is because some big corporation want to make back
their money spent on years of research by trying to make a synthetic version of it for sale.

So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by letting him know or just drink
some sour sop juice yourself as a prevention from time to time. The taste is not bad after
all. Its completely natural and definitely has no side effects. If you have the space plant
one in your garden. The other parts of the tree are also useful. The next time you have a
fruit juice, ask for a sour sop.

How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret
of the miraculous Graviola tree?

If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically clear why the existence of
Health Sciences Institute is so vital to Americans like you, it’s the incredible story behind
the Graviola tree.

The truth is stunningly simple: Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that
could literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of the world thinks about
cancer treatment and chances of survival. The future has never looked more promising.

Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to
attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause
extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss

Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections. Feel stronger and healthier
throughout the course of the treatment. Boost your energy and improve your outlook on
life

The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes from one of America ’s
largest drug manufacturers, the fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the
1970’s! What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind numbing.

Extracts from the tree were shown to: Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12
types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer.

The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of
cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!

What’s more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree
selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells. It does not harm healthy cells! The
amazing anti-cancer properties of the Graviola tree have been extensively researched–so
why haven’t you heard anything about it? If Graviola extract is as half as promising as it
appears to be–why doesn’t every single oncologist at every major hospital insist on using
it on all his or her patients?

The spine-chilling answer illustrates just how easily our health – and for many, our very
lives(!)–are controlled by money and power.

Graviola–the plant that worked too well.

One of America ’s biggest billion-dollar drug makers began a search for a Cancer cure
and their research centered on Graviola, a legendary
healing tree from the Amazon Rainforest.

Various parts of the Graviola tree–including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit-seeds–
have been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South America to
treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and arthritis. Going on very little documented
scientific evidence, the company poured money and resources into testing the tree’s anti-
cancerous properties—and were shocked by the results. Graviola proved itself to be a
cancer-killing dynamo.

There’s no way to make serious profits from it.

It turns out the drug company invested nearly seven years trying to synthesize two of the
Graviola tree’s most powerful anti-cancer ingredients. If they could isolate and produce
man-made clones of what makes the Graviola so potent, they’d be able to patent it and
make their money back. Alas, they hit a brick wall. The original simply could not be
replicated. There was no way the company could protect its profits—or even make back
the millions it poured into research.

As the dream of huge profits evaporated, their testing on Graviola came to a screeching
halt. Even worse, the company shelved the entire project and chose not to publish the
findings of its research!

Luckily, however, there was one scientist from the Graviola research team whose
conscience wouldn’t let him see such atrocity committed. Risking his career, he contacted
a company that’s dedicated to harvesting medical plants from the Amazon Rainforest and
blew the whistle.

Miracle unleashed. When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute were alerted to the
news of Graviola, they began tracking the research done on the cancer-killing tree.
Evidence of the astounding effectiveness of Graviola–and its shocking cover-up–came in
fast and furious.

The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976.. The results
showed that Graviola’s “leaves and stems were found effective in attacking and
destroying malignant cells. Inexplicably, the results were published in an internal report
and never released to the public.
Since 1976, Graviola has proven to be an immensely potent cancer killer in 20
independent laboratory tests, yet no double-blind clinical trials–the typical benchmark
mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment’s value–were ever initiated.

A study published in the Journal of Natural Products, following a recent study conducted
at Catholic University of South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found to
selectively kill colon cancer cells at “10,000 times the potency of (the commonly used
chemotherapy drug) Adriamycin.

The most significant part of the Catholic University of South Korea report is that
Graviola was shown to selectively target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells
untouched. Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all actively reproducing
cells (such as stomach and hair cells), causing the often devastating side effects of nausea
and hair loss in cancer patients.

A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed
cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate,
pancreatic and lung cancers.

Seven years of silence broken–it’s finally here! Guyabano supplements are now available
in pill form or in fruit juices. They can be purchased at www.Guyabanostore.com.

The
Guyabano, The Soursop Fruit has cancer curing abilities. The Sour Sop or the fruit from
the graviola tree is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger than
Chemo. The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and definitely has no side
effects..

Guyabano is a tree called graviola in Brazil , guanabana in Spanish and has the
uninspiring name “soursop” in English.

The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white pulp is eaten out of hand or, more
commonly, used to make fruit drinks, sherbets and such.

The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong anti-cancer effects. This plant is
a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types. Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola
is a broad spectrum antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections, is
effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and is used for
depression, stress and nervous disorders.

Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:

* Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause
extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
* Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
* Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
* Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life
* Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including colon, breast,
prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer..
* The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of
cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
* What’s more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree
selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells.

Guyabano fruit.

Guyabano is one of the healthiest fruits known to man. The flesh of the fruit consist of a
white edible pulp that is high in carbohydrates (particularly fructose) and considerable
amounts of Vitamin C, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, potassium and dietary fiber. Guyabano
is low in cholesterol, saturated fat and sodium. Not only is guyabano a good health food,
it also tastes delicious.

Though many of these therapies are still under evaluation, most have supporters who
believe that they have added a positive aspect to their treatment and care, cope better with
the physical symptoms and side effects of standard treatment, as well as with the complex
and often distressing emotions that cancer can bring.

Anyone, from children to senior citizens can get this disease. What causes cancer in the
first place, and how quickly the cells grow and spread, varies from person to person.
While a large number of people with cancer overcome the disease and live fulfilled lives
for many years, some succumb within a few months.

Thanks to the advances made by research, treatments are available for many forms of
cancer. Depending on the type of the disease, these treatments are used alone or in
combination, to either control cancer cell growth or to eliminate the disease entirely. The
treatment choices depend on the stage of the tumor. Traditional or conventional treatment
options may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and
immunotherapy. These therapies have all been tested in clinical trials and proven to be
acceptable, safe and effective, although with often unpleasant side effects.

But the journey with cancer is a long, stressful and strenuous one. The treatment
procedure itself may be detrimental to the emotional well-being of the patient. This is
where complementary and alternative therapies have stepped in to offer holistic
treatment. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)—also referred to as
integrative medicine—includes a broad range of healing philosophies, approaches and
therapies. These therapies are used in an effort to prevent illness, reduce stress, prevent or
reduce side effects and symptoms, and control or cure disease.

<h1>An Active Lifestyle Helps to Maintain Great
Health</h1>
<p><strong>By: <a

A healthy and positive lifestyle will not only ensure that you live a significantly
healthier life, but will also ensure a longer life expectancy. Basically, all that people need
to do in order to maintain their good health and avoid a wide range of illnesses, including
many seasonal illnesses, is ensure they get proper nutrition and exercise or make sure they
meet a minimum level of physical effort each day. Excessive weight issues coupled with
an improper nutrition not only means that people lack energy during the day, but also that
people who lead an inactive lifestyle stand more chances to develop serious heart issues
or specific diseases such as diabetes, increased blood pressure, and more. These diseases
can be avoided by just respecting certain rules that are imperative to maintaining an
excellent health. Mainly, these rules relate specifically to the physical exercises that
people are advised to do each day, and the foods that must be present in every diet.
Excessive weight due to improper nutrition will also lead to a serious of minor problems
that become overwhelming as they progress. A few good examples of these health
problems that usually arise when weight becomes a problem include cramps and
difficulty to sleep, cramps and sprains, and numerous other which will usually require the
attention of a physician and medical treatment. All the minor and most serious diseases
that develop over time due to poor nutrition must be addressed immediately as they are
spotted in order to completely avoid complications. Most people when hearing about
physical exercise immediately think about strenuous exercising or running for multiple
hours. The reality, however, is that most doctors recommend that half an hour of any kind
of physical effort each day coupled with a balanced diet will lead to maintaining good
health and a positive lifestyle. Even by walking for 10 to 20 minutes at a fast pace each
day helps with avoiding most of the health issues derived from leading a sedentary life
and having an improper diet. Another common misconception among people who are
used to just lying around with constantly depleted energy, is that it takes a long time to
recover. Again, the truth is that in just a few days, energy begins to restore and you will
be able to jump out of bed smiling and waiting forward to start your day. A few tips for
those people that simply do not have the time to visit the gym a few times each week, is
to try and exercise through any means possible. For example, simply walking to work
each day can have great effects on health. Other small tricks that work just as well
include choosing to take the stairs instead of the elevator, or walking to the store instead
of using the car. If you believe that you are not leading a truly healthy lifestyle and are
worried about your health, don't try to accomplish everything you set your mind on from
the first day. Instead, include the new rules gradually and increase your exercise time
when you feel comfortable.
