January 2005 . know that flu shots are not the answer. 2. What one woman is doing with great success in regards to autoimmune diseases. 3. More information on artificial sweetners including sugar alcohols As mentioned in a previous newsletter - 2 teaspoons of sugar lowers your immune system by 50%. WOW!! With Halloween, Thanksgiving Christmas and Easter ahead we need to consider the consequences. Why not consider using honey which is actually a natural herbal combination made by bees or maple syrup (ummm yummy - pecan pies made with maple syrup) or substituting one of the following for your sweet tooth. Barley malt, Brown Rice Syrup, Date Sugar, Sucanat (a brand of dried, unrefined sugar cane juice.), Turbinado sugar, Stevia. Avoid all sugar alcohols because as far as we can determine they are all detrimental to your body. Some common sugar alcohols are: mannitol, sorbitol, xylitol, lactitol, isomalt, maltitol and hydrogenated starch hydrolysates (HSH). The most common side effect is the possibility of bloating and diarrhea when sugar alcohols are eaten in excessive amounts. There is also some evidence that sugar alcohols, much like fructose (natural fruit sugar) in fruit and fruit juice can cause a "laxative effect." Weight gain has been seen when these products are overeaten. (A friend with diabetes almost ended up in the hospital after ingesting maltitol and she had the same reaction to aspartame) Sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners, such as saccharin (Sweet & Low®) and aspartame (Equal® or Nutrasweet®), are not one and the same. One difference between the two types of sugar substitutes is that the artificial sweeteners contain zero calories whereas sugar alcohols contain about 2.6 calories per gram. Read more about aspartame here http://www.zhealthinfo.com/newsletter-7.htm Incidentally if you are on a sugar crave you can substitute green leafy vegetables or a protein and it will satisfy the "crave" Immune builders - OLIVE LEAF - is one of the best - Orally, olive leaf extract is used for treatment of conditions caused by, or associated with, a virus, retrovirus, bacterium, or protozoan including influenza, the common cold, meningitis, Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), encephalitis, herpes I and II, human herpes virus 6 and 7, shingles, HIV/ARC/AIDS, chronic fatigue, hapatitis B, pneumonia, tuberculosis, gonorrhea, malaria, dengue, bacteremia, severe diarrhea, blood poisoning, and dental, ear, urinary tract and surgical infections.

You can also diffuse them in their bedrooms or put on a cotton cloth by them when sleeping. They should always be used with a carrier oil like olive oil, grapeseed oil, almond oil, etc. when applying to the skin. Cinnamon in any form you can get it down is excellent. Cinnamon has even been known to kill "e-coli". Children love cinnamon toast (I powder turbinado sugar in my Vitamix or blender) since white sugar is so bad for the immune system. Some suggestions are 1. X-Plague eo combination which has Cinnamon, Cloves, Eucalyptus, Lemon and Rosemary essential oils. 2. Our '3 in 1' combination which has Cloves, Lavender, & Tea Tree essential oil 3. Eucalyptus - globulus or radiata essential oils 4. Cajeput essential oil essential oils 5. Fir Needle essential oil 6.
