“The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his
patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and
prevention of disease.” —Thomas A. Edison
We believe
Balanced and healthy food choices, getting regular sleep and sufficient
exercise, reducing your daily toxin threshold, and maintaining a positive
state of mind are required to create a GREEN and healthy body. This may
seem overwhelming at first, but we are here to help you every step of the way.
WHY EVERYONE NEEDS TO RESTORE
THE CORE
◦ Environmental factors can cause the balance of friendly and unfriendly bacteria
in your gut to be reduced – creating an imbalance.
◦ Sleep deprivation
◦ Consuming toxins in your food : Foods that contain high sugar, antibiotics,
pesticides, herbicides, and the like.
◦ Exposed to second hand smoke, tap water containing chlorine or fluoride, etc.
◦ Each year the toxic burden in our air, food and water – and thus our bodies – grows higher than ever before.
Companies manufacture 6.5 trillion pounds of 9,000 different chemicals each year. That’s about 3.25 billion tons
– enough to fill an ocean supertanker. And the same companies release over 7 billion pounds of 650+ different
pollutants into the atmosphere and water.
◦ A recent study by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) found the average person has over 91 toxic chemicals
in their body. Imagine that some people had as many as 165, including 76 known to cause cancer, 94 known to be
toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 79 known to cause birth defects and abnormal fetal development.
◦ Not to mention that the Standard American Diet itself is highly toxic. Processed and refined foods, industrial seed
oils, high fructose corn syrup, and even so-called healthy foods like whole grains and soy all have a toxic effect on
the body.
◦ CONSTIPATION: A National billion dollar over the counter business.
◦ 62 million Americans are diagnosed with a digestive disorder. The incidence and prevalence of most digestive
diseases increase with age
ENVIRONMENTAL STRESSORS
◦ These are stressors that are out of our control.
◦ We are all exposed to stressors from the
environment.
◦ Air pollution.
◦ Toxicity in drinking water, air, food, and the like.
◦ Second hand smoke.
◦ High levels of free radicals enter the body and
cause the body to deplete the disease fighting
antioxidants that our gut flora use as food/fuel.
COMMON SYMPTOMS OF AN
IMBLANCED GUT
o FREQUENT HEADACHES
o FATIGUE
o CONSTIPATION
o DIARRHEA
o BLOATING/ GAS
o URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS
o YEAST INFECTIONS (CANDIDA)
o FREQUENT COLDS
o BRAIN FOG
o ANXIETY/ DEPRESSION SYMPTOMS
DO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW
HAVE…?
◦ IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
◦ COLITIS
◦ LEAKY GUT
◦ CROHN’S DISEASE
◦ INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE
◦ CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME
◦ INFLAMMATION
◦ ECZEMA
◦ FIBROMYALGIA
◦ ACNE
◦ AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS
◦ MOOD DISORDER
◦ MIGRAINES
Dr. Edward Group, founder of the Global Healing Center, believes over ninety percent of all the
toxins you take in enter through the intestinal lining. This means disease starts in the digestive tract
and health begins in the digestive tract.
THE DIGESTIVE “GUT” SYSTEM
◦ Gastrointestinal tract
◦ The GI Tract is made up of seven key organs.
These include the gall bladder, large intestine,
liver, esophagus, pancreas, small intestine and
stomach. Each of these organs have unique
functions and characteristics.
◦ The home of unfriendly and friendly bacteria
“microorganisms”.
◦ The microorganisms in your gut typically weigh
4-5lbs and need to fill approx. 300 square meters
of intestinal lining.
TYPICAL HEALTHY DIGESTIVE
SYSTEM
Consumes little to no toxins in foods
85 % friendly & 15% unfriendly bacteria
◦ Organic
◦ Natural
◦ Less Sugar or none at all
◦ Foods free of herbicides
◦ Foods free of pesticides
◦ Foods free of antibiotics
◦ Foods free of high fructose corn syrup, and little
to no Fast Food.
VS.
DIGESTIVE LINK
◦ Dysbiosis: An imbalance of unfriendly and friendly bacteria in the gut.
◦ Dysbiosis is a common factor in illnesses.
◦ Dysbiosis is one of the most ignored and untreated conditions in the
world.
◦ When was the last time your doctor suggested you take probiotics?
◦ Have they ever mentioned to eat prebiotic foods?
◦ Have you ever discussed the importance of digestive enzymes?
IMMUNE SYSTEM
◦ Your immune system needs a healthy digestive system in order to function properly.
◦ Your body needs to be able to absorb the nutrients to support immunity.
◦ You could have the healthiest diet on the planet and if your digestive system does not have a healthy balance
of 85/15 gut flora – then your body will not even be able to fully absorb the nutrients leaving your immune
system weak and at risk.
◦ Friendly bacteria aid in the break down and absorption of nutrients.
◦ If you have an autoimmune diagnosis or are going through the medical motions of being diagnosed with
AIDS or Cancer – your body needs to be supported with probiotic supplements. Filling your digestive tract
with friendly bacteria will help manage the many digestive symptoms that accompany taking prescription
medications.
WHY CLEANSE ?
Detoxing Done Naturally
What happens
Chemicals disrupt sensitive biochemical and hormonal balances by altering the electrical signals in
the water within blood and living cells.
Components: Mind Body Spirit
◦ Food Nutrient Dense
◦ Meditation
◦ Journaling
◦ Deep Breathing
◦ Yoga
◦ Massage
◦ Re connect with family and friends
◦ Put yourself first
◦ Let go
Detoxing/Cleansing Done Naturally
◦ We designed The Detoxing Done Naturally program based on fruits and vegetables; foods nature
◦ provides us and the body’s natural biorhythms.
◦ Understanding and following these principles is critical for first improving and then maintaining
◦ your health and vitality.
◦ Cleansing can be the beginning to a healthier lifestyle
◦ A cleanse can help you heal with greater speed, cleanse your liver, kidneys and colon. It will also purify your blood,
help you lose weight and water, flush out toxins, clear the eyes and tongue and cleanse the breath.
◦ It is recommended that you FAST (water) at least three days a month, and follow a ten-day cleanse at least twice a
year, during the changing of the seasons.
◦ Depending on the length of the cleanse, it accomplished different things. A three-day fast helps the body rid itself
of toxins and cleanses the blood. A five-day cleanse begins the process of healing and rebuilding the immune
system. A ten-day cleanse can take care of many problems before they arise and help fight off illness, including
degenerative diseases.
◦ BODY CYCLE #1: THE ELIMINATION CYCLE
◦ Begins around 4:00 AM and ends around 12:00 NOON.
◦ During this cycle, the body naturally tries to purge itself of toxic waste materials and unnecessary
salts, proteins, and acids.
◦ During these hours, you should consume adequate amounts of fresh seasonal fruit (preferably
organic or locally grown) during the elimination cycle. Not only does this supply the body with
living matter to draw out unwanted substances, it also ensures the body remains well-hydrated and
nourished.
◦ BODY CYCLE #2: THE ENERGY CYCLE
◦ Begins around 12:00 NOON and ends around 8:00 PM.
◦ During the Energy Cycle, food and nutrients are processed and stored
◦ To provide you with energy for your day.
◦ The best way to support your body during the Energy Cycle is to eat plenty of fresh raw
vegetables (such as salad), raw nuts and seeds to provide your body with the energy it needs
to maintain its natural biochemical balance.
◦ BODY CYCLE #3: THE REGENERATION CYCLE
◦ Begins from about 8:00 PM and ends 4:00 AM.
◦ This is an opportunity for the body to heal and regenerate.
◦ This is when the body should get quality sleep.
◦ During this cycle, the body assimilates all the foods that you consumed during the day and then
processes the nutrients to regenerate itself. If the sleep cycle is disrupted by irregular work
patterns, night feeding of infants, travel across many time zones, or other factors

TOXINS AND WEIGHT LOSS
◦ You need your digestive system to function at an optimal healthy level in order for your body to remove
toxins and receive the benefit of weight loss.
◦ The digestive system plays a critical role in absorbing nutrients, maintaining energy, and maintaining
metabolism.
◦ When you consume toxins in foods (fast food, processed foods, non-organic, antibiotic, artificial growth
hormones, gmo, etc) you are literally starving your gut of the healthy food it needs to keep a balanced gut
flora. AND – you are feeding the “unfriendly” guys exactly what they need to eat to continue to grow and
produce.
◦ The more toxins – the more your body will hold onto toxic waste (increased weight).
◦ The more toxins – the more malnourished your body will be and you will then suffer with a variety of
symptoms (lack of sleep, headaches, frequent colds, digestive symptoms, increased anxiety, etc.)
◦ The LESS toxins you consume – the MORE “friendly” bacteria your gut has – leaving your body in a
THRIVING state.
FOOD & MOOD & THE GUT
◦ The gut, the “second brain” contains some 100 million neurons, more than in
either the spinal cord or the peripheral nervous system.
◦ A healthy gut balance of 85/15 supports the functionality of the neurons within
the gut.
◦ The enteric nervous system uses more than 30 neurotransmitters, just like the
brain, and in fact 95 percent of the body's serotonin is found in the bowels.
◦ It is extremely important to include prebiotic foods, foods that contain probiotics,
and avoid all foods that are full of toxins and are processed.
◦ Your mood is directly related to the health of your “second brain”.
Primary foods/The Real Issue
◦ Environment
◦ Work/Career
◦ Relationships
◦ Physical activity
◦ Spirituality
◦ Finances
CORRELATION BETWEEN NEGATIVE
EMOTIONS AND DISEASE
Negative emotions destroy internal organs and bodily functions according to research by Dr. W. Lee Cowden
who states clearly that:
Anger destroys your………………….Liver ………………secondary foods
Grief and sadness destroys your…….Heart and Lungs………secondary foods
Fear &terror destroy your ……………Kidneys………………secondary foods
Bitterness& resentment………………Gall bladder…………..secondary foods
Feelings of abandonment…………..Small intestine………… secondary foods
Disgust……………………………..Stomach……………….secondary foods
Confusion destroys your……………Thyroid/adrenals………secondary foods
Irritation/timidity………………....Bladder. ……………….secondary foods
Low self-esteem/rejection…………Spleen/pancreas
……..secondary foods
WHAT ARE PROBIOTICS?
◦Probiotics are live
microorganisms, which
when administered in
adequate amounts
confer a health benefit
on the host.
PROBIOTIC BENEFITS
◦ AID IN DIGESTION
◦ ASSIST IN THE ABSORPTION OF NUTRIENTS
◦ FIGHT YEAST (CANDIDA) AND FUNGAL
INFECTIONS
◦ PREVENT AND CONTROL DIARRHEA
◦ HELP PREVENT SKIN CONDITIONS LIKE
ECZEMA, ACNE
◦ IMPROVE AND PROTECT THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
◦ PROTECT AGAINST DISEASE CAUSING
PATHOGENS
◦ HELP DECREASE THE CARCINOGENIC
COMPONENTS IN THE INTESTINAL TRACT
PROBIOTIC BENEFITS : 2
◦ ENHANCE CALCIUM METABOLISM
PREVENTING OSTEOPOROSIS
◦ HELP MAINTAIN A BALANCE OF PH
◦ HELP PRODUCE VITAMIN K AND B
◦ HELP REGULATE ACTIVITY OF THE
BOWEL
◦ INHIBIT THE FORMATION OF TUMORS
◦ ASSIST IN LIVER FUNCTION AND
DETOXIFICATION
◦ REDUCE THE ACCUMULATION OF
CHOLESTEROL AND PLAQUE IN THE
ARTERIES
What NOT to do when you have GI issues
◦ Do NOT reach for an antacid. Antacids do neutralize stomach acid by approx. 99% but when that
occurs you are literally killing the good bacteria in your digestive tract.
◦ Do you ever notice that when you begin to take antacids you can’t just take one? You continually
take them. INSTEAD of replenishing the good bacteria in your gut.
◦ Probiotics support a healthy gut balance which helps manage and support all gastrointestinal
issues from mild diarrhea to IBS to IBD to Colitis to even Crohn’s Disease.
◦ Without a healthy acidic balance you are leaving your stomach prone to future gastrointestinal
issues.
◦ Avoid bloating, inflammation, diarrhea, and beyond!
◦ Go with probiotics!
PROBIOTIC FOODS
◦ Organic Cultured Yogurt
◦ Kefir
◦ Kimchee (pickled cabbage, radish, garlic, ginger)
◦ Acidophilus Milk (always buy organic)
◦ Miso Dressings
◦ Sauerkraut (my favorite!)
◦ Tempeh
◦ Pickles
◦ Olives
◦ Fermented foods
THE HELPERS : Natural Healing Foods
◦ Prebiotic foods (fermentable fiber) are what feeds your gut flora “the friendly bacteria”. Think of your
stomach as one big fish tank, you have good guys, you have bad guys, - the more good guys – the less bad
guys. And if you don’t feed them then we have a problem! So prebiotics are the FOOD that your gut flora
needs.
◦ When you combine prebiotics with probiotics they are called synbiotics.
◦ According to the authors of "Gut Insight: Probiotics and Prebiotics for Digestive Health and Well-Being" Jo
Ann Tatum Hattner and Susan Anderes, include bananas, apples, blackberries, blueberries, boysenberries,
strawberries, raspberries, cranberries and raisins.
◦ Vegetables rich in prebiotic content include artichokes, asparagus, jicama, red and white onions, leeks, garlic,
spinach, dandelion greens and tomatoes.
RESTORE THE CORE LIFESTYLE
◦ Avoid toxins! Eat Organic. Eat Clean. (Detoxify with whole foods at least seasonally) Avoid toxic cleaners as well.
To learn more about using essential oils in your home and for your health contact me personally.
◦ Eat prebiotic foods
◦ Eat foods that contain active cultures
◦ Take a Probiotic Supplement
◦ Take a Digestive Enzyme Supplement
◦ Drink an adequate amount of water
◦ Participate in activities to reduce stress
◦ Get an adequate amount of sleep (8 hours min.)
◦ Avoid gut flora killers : caffeine, sugar, alcohol, toxins.
◦ Include Fiber in the diet : You will know if you have enough fiber if your bowel movements are normal.
◦ Most important : If you take antibiotics take probiotics before, during, and after to replenish the good bacteria.
