Proper Eating: Podcast #205

Martin Pytela, founder of the Life Enthusiast Co-op, and his co-host Scott Paton take on the topic of proper eating and metabolism this week on their alternative health podcast. We all have trouble finding the perfect diet for ourselves. Improper diet results in inflammation, leading to the production of insulin, which is then stores energy as fat where it doesn’t get used properly.

Cholesterol is another result of improper diet. It leads to cases of high blood pressure, heart attacks and arterial plaque. The body produces both “good” and “bad” cholesterol and the two must be kept in balance for your maximum health to be achieved. Managing blood cholesterol levels can be very difficult and eating the right foods with exercise is only the beginning.

The Life Enthusiast Co-op offers a fantastic cholesterol solvent called Lecithin. It is a potent ally for your immune system, and a moisturizer and lubricant. The product itself is designed to enable efficient fat metabolism. This leads to remarkable weight loss.

Lecithin is also what your brain uses to create the chemical stuff thought is made of. The more of it you have, the sharper your mind becomes.

Chances are you’ve experienced what Martin and Scott are talking about. You wake up one day and just don’t seem to have the energy you once did. Tasks which once were easy for you now require increased effort, or the days just seem to be getting longer all the time.

What’s happened is your body has stopped being able to eliminate the toxins it receives faster than they are coming in. An eight day detox, like the one promoted by Dr. Terry Hambrick, might be just the trick you’re looking for. It’s a simple eight day nutritive cleanse designed to initiate dietary detoxification.

Everyone we’ve talked to has reported incredible results with this: some have even started doing it every month it feels so good! One recommendation: schedule your first cleanse so that days four and five land on a weekend. This is often the most intensive portion and it is nice to have some time to simply relax and unwind with it.

Happy Cleansing!

Assimilation and Elimination: Podcast #193

Martin Pytela, renowned founder of the Life Enthusiast Co-op, is back with his co-host Scott Paton for this week’s exciting podcast. The topic this week? A very interesting one: Assimilation and Elimination, two extremely important key stones that make us tick. It has been suggested that if these two aspects of our bodies could be properly regulated, we could extend life as far as we wanted.

So just what is assimilation and elimination? Assimilation can be thought of as the body’s ability to utilize the nutrients found in the foods we eat. Unfortunately, most people in our society think that large quantities of food equal more nutrients. This is quite misguided as it completely ignores the body’s ability to take this nutrition and put it to good use.

Typical absorption rates of nutrients range from 20-80%. This means that you might be only assimilating as little as 20% of the nutrients you are feeding your body.

Elimination, on the other hand, might be more known to the general public, for it is simply the way the body removes waste and eliminates toxins. While we might not think about it, every activity the body does produces waste. This waste is eliminated through the skin, lungs, kidneys and intestines. If any of these channels aren’t functioning properly, there can be major problems.

This really only scratches the surface of this fascinating topic. Be sure to check out the podcast for yourself!

Success Stories: Podcast #36

In this week’s podcast episode, Martin Pytela and his co-host Scott Paton discuss success stories they have heard from various customers of the Life Enthusiast Co-op.

The success stories focus on two separate products that by now are probably well-known to our regular listeners. They are Platinum Plus and Exsula’s Strata Flora.

Platinum Plus really is your best bet if you are experiencing discomfort and illness through a systemic disease. The product is designed to provide the body with free form amino acids which target unwanted metal toxicity throughout the body and repair tissues that have been damaged. These amino acids also help break down dietary protein which may normally get wasted, into individual amino acids which are much more useful throughout the body.

Exsula’s Strata Flora is a very similar product in that it targets immune system deficiencies that result from the types of “super germs” that have been bred thanks to antibiotics, and foreign viruses and bacterium coming in from remote locations of the globe (i.e. swine flu etc.)

This product is the perfect cure for that persistent cough you’ve had for months that won’t respond to antibiotics. Due to our supermarket diets and our increasing use of antibiotics, the digestive flora that normally accumulates in the intestines is not there anymore. As a result, you are left with only the strongest antibiotic-proof bacteria thriving in an environment purged of all threats or danger. No wonder that cough won’t go away!

Generation Plus: Podcast #35

Martin Pytela, founder of the Life Enthusiast Co-op, and his co-host Scott Paton serve up another enlightening podcast this week. The topic? A group of products that fall under the brand new Generation Plus. These products use enzymes in an innovative way to promote healthy digestion, intestinal health and healthy cholesterol levels.

The mission statement of Generation Plus is of course to allow you to live a longer, healthier life. An admittedly broad goal that is achieved through raising awareness of alternative health methods which have the potential to lead to a higher awareness of just what health and wellness can be.

All products offered by this company are heavily researched. As a result they have a level of customer loyally that I’ve yet to see anywhere else.

A couple of their more popular products include Zymitol, a pain manager and performance enhancer designed to allow to train harder than before through powerfully potent enzymes. Naticor, on the other hand, is designed to promote a healthy circulatory system. Most people are unaware of how drastically this can affect blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

This just scratches the surface and there are many fine products available so be sure to check out the podcast and our website for more info!

Several noted MDs have stated that colons are incredibly underestimated in the grand scheme of our overall health. Dr. Harvey Kellogg has stated that in the tens of thousands of operations he has performed, he has never seen a colon in ideal condition (and he has supervised even more).

Dr. Kellogg has gone even further to say that 90% of all diseases we experience as a society could be prevented quite effectively by improving the functioning of our colon.

If this has sparked your interest about the matter, I want to encourage you to check out a fine product offered by a brand called “Generation Plus”. It’s called Floracol, and it helps create an environment in the colon where “good” bacteria flourish and “bad” bacteria are flushed away for good.
