Today's Health Topic:
How the Vitamin C in Original Limu helps aid in digestion.
The Limu Moui sea plant has more Vitamin C than does the orange. In fact on the RDA% scale, 1 orange (app 4.5oz) = 116%. In fact it is 12 on the list behind Black Currants, Red Bell Peppers raw and strawberries to name a few.
"Deficencies (of Vitamin C) interfere with everything from the production of collagen, the protein 'cement' that holds your cells together and helps in the healing of wounds, to your ability to digest food and fight the effects of stress."
Also, "Your body can't manufacture it (Vitamin C) or store more than a few grams, so keeping your cells saturated with a rich daily supply of Vitamin C is crucial."
Both these excerpts come from page 244 - ISBN0-87857-495-6
Vitamin C is most crucial because it plays a role in Every bodily function - simply because it holds the cells together.
If Vitamin C is lacking, the result will be a defective collagen molecule that means ultimately weak tissue. 30% of all body protein is collagen. It is involved in many diseases from fatal heart & lung diseases to back pain & minor skin disorders.
We don't hear too often about the disease of Scurvy (although it is becoming more prevalent in the elderly who find it difficult to shop for or eat the proper foods)
Scurvy is a Vitamin C deficency that causes slow wound healing, bleeding gums, pneumonia, and eventually death. It is completely reversible with just a few servings of Vitamin C rich foods.
How does this help w/digestion?
On the very cellular level if our bodies are lacking C, day in and out or even just skipping a few days out of the week, then the cells that hold us together start to become weak. It has to play catch up on the vital organs and processes to sustain life.
This means we don't have to get bleeding gums in order to have irritation, pain or unwillingness to chew food.
The fact that our body is stessed out physically but in todays world also mentally, there is little doubt most of us have stomach irritations or even ulcers. These are wounds we cannot see and are not being fixed by our body's natural renewal process.
We do not have to have acid reflux for us to have throat problems which keep us from eating.
Without daily doses of Vitamin C, it is no wonder that the body fights for survival in the only way it can - unfortunately by cutting down on the digestion process; therby sending the whole system into a state of shock, unable to physically fight the deterioration that is attacking on all fronts. The only thing it can do to get the Nutrients is to attack and steal Nutrients that are stored in the body, creating a snowball effect of more destruction by further lack of Nutrients.
When the body has the whole food nutrients (Not Pills for suppliments which the body does not know what to do with all that by product anyway) it Needs it will repair the damage that has already been done to it as well as fight to protect itself from any further damage. Itself meaning YOU - The Essence of You is in Your Body.
Our bodies are the only thing standing between this world and the next (or death if You will).
As living beings we -just like the fruit trees or houseplants, domesticated or wild animals, all living things need nutrients to live and to thrive. We feed our plants & gardens Miracle Grow(tm). Well, that's what happens when we feed Our bodies liquid whole food nutrition packed with loads of Vitamin C. We become healthy, vibrant, radiant - not dull, droopy & withered.
Vitamin C just happens to play a Major role in our ability to sustain Life.
By living through Anorexia i know exactly what it is like to Actually, Physically Not be able to eat.
Within just days after drinking 4oz of Original Limu everyday, my body started to respond by my digestion system 'waking up'. I was able to go through all the motions of digestion from chewing to swallowing to having the food sit and digest in my stomach well.
After drinking this Vitamin C & Fucoidan rich juice every month for 2 years, i see and feel the difference that a Vitamin C rich daily diet will do for the body.
If You do nothing else for Your Family & Your Health this year, add more Vitamin C to Your daily diet.
Oh, did You know that if You take asprin daily for your health, BE AWARE:
Aspirin Reduces the Body's Absorption of Vitamin C by 50%
