The Healthy Cell Concept – Cell Environment

Posted on by

Cell environment

Although an important part of the Healthy Cell Concept™, cell environment is perhaps the most frustrating element because it’s probably the hardest one for us to do anything about. We can easily eat cell food and incorporate cell exercise, but changing our environment is much more difficult. Of particular concern are air and water pollutants. 

Air

In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protects human health and the environment through the regulatory process and voluntary programs. It sets limits on how much of a pollutant is allowed in the air anywhere in the United States. Air pollution comes from many different sources such as factories, power plants, dry cleaners, cars, buses, trucks, and even windblown dust and wildfires. Although national air quality has improved over the last 20 years, many challenges remain in protecting public health and the environment. 

Air pollution comes in many different forms. The most well-known air pollutants are sulfur dioxide (power plants, diesel engines), suspended particulate matter (construction, industry, wood-burning), ground-level ozone (automobiles), and carbon monoxide (automobiles). 

Our indoor air is often polluted, too—approximately 35 percent of the office space in the United States has pollution levels higher than the air outside. This comes from chemicals in cleaners, carpet adhesives, plastic products, and other sources, and is compounded by poor ventilation. 

The result of these air pollutants is a decrease in quality of life and an increase in medical bills. Air pollution damages the lungs by causing irritation that leads to inflammation and the destruction of lung tissue. It weakens the lungs’ ability to fight further contamination, which makes the prolonged exposure to air pollutants increasingly destructive. 

Air pollution also hurts our natural defenses against airborne invaders such as dust, pollen, and germs. Air pollution dries up mucus and destroys cilia. This is dangerous because the mucus in our airways traps germs and particles before they reach our lungs, and the cilia—hairlike cells—push the mucus out of the body. 

Health statistics are telling. The examination of lung tissue from young people who were raised in cities indicate that 80 percent suffered from precancerous lung lesions, most likely due to breathing polluted air. Other studies estimate that five percent of the deaths in major U.S. cities can be linked to air pollution, and that some 60,000 deaths a year can be attributed to air pollution. 

What can you do?

Monitor outdoor air quality and on “bad air” days, stay indoors, especially if you are young, elderly, or suffer from heart or respiratory problems. You can contribute to outdoor clean air by limiting your driving—use mass transit, join car pools, ride bicycles, or walk. Indoors, use an air filter or air purifier to remove pollutants such as smoke, pollen, dust, and pet dander from the air. Ideally, avoid cigarette smoke altogether by not smoking and staying out of smoking areas. Finally, support strong federal, state, and local pollution-control laws. These may seem like a hardship, but they will help your health and save you money. After all, would you rather pay a few dollars a year for car emissions tests or thousands of dollars a month in hospital bills for respiratory disease? 

Water

Water is perhaps the most important nutrient in our bodies. Although water does not contain “nutrients” as we know them—protein, carbohydrates, enzymes, vitamins, minerals—without water, we cannot survive. 

What does water do? 

  1. Water helps break down foods into the nutrients we need. Without it, we would have no digestive juices.
  2. Water transports nutrients and helps us absorb them.
  3. Water helps remove from the body the waste created naturally by the body. If we do not dispose of this waste, we die.
  4. Water helps remove toxins that we get through foods and pollution.
  5. Water lubricates the body. It prevents friction from destroying our joints, lubricates our eyes, and makes it possible for muscles to work smoothly.
  6. Water keeps us from overheating by regulating our temperature.

Drink pure water 

One of the best things we can do for our health is drink water. The human body needs approximately 2 quarts (2 liters) of water each day. We get this through the foods we eat, through metabolism, and through drinking water. We should drink eight glasses (8 oz, 240 ml) of pure water throughout each day—try to drink a glass every hour. 

This is important because if you don’t give your body enough water, it takes it from your cells and from your blood. This causes your body to close some smaller blood vessels, called capillaries, and makes your blood thicker and harder to pump around your body. This has implications in high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease. Lack of water may also be linked to headaches, arthritis, and heartburn. 

Dehydration is also linked to obesity. Without water, your body can’t convert triglycerides (a type of fat) into energy. 

Just any liquid will not do. Soda, tea, and coffee often function as diuretics, which stop your body from recycling salt and water and cause you to lose important nutrients. 

What can you do?

Pay attention to what you drink. Tap water is polluted almost everywhere—according to the EPA, virtually every type of industrial substance we create ends up in our water supply. And when we use this water, the pollutants it carries harm our cells. 

This means you should consider the options. Many people buy bottled water, but be careful. There are no standards for bottled water, and it can be as bad as, if not worse than, tap water. Others buy water filters. Today, technology has made possible efficient and cost-effective filters. 

You can help maintain water quality by watching your habits. When you use fertilizer on your lawn or dump old paint in an alley, these substances eventually end up in the water supply. See if your community has a “hazardous waste day” when you can dispose of toxic substances. As with air-pollution standards, get together with others to ensure that water-quality standards in your community are sufficient and are met. 

The AIM products 

The AIM product targeted most closely at cell environment is AIM Prills™. AIM Prills™ are magnesium oxide balls. When you add them to your “regular” water, you make AIM Prill Thin Water™. “Thin” water has less viscosity than regular water, giving it additional benefits. As a spray, it refreshes; as a drink, it rehydrates; and when combined with AIM’s powder products— AIM BarleyLife®, AIM Just Carrots®, AIM RediBeets®, and AIM Herbal Fiberblend®—it results in a smoother and better-tasting product. 

AIM products that aid detoxification are also helpful in ridding the body of pollutants picked up in air and water. These include AIM Herbal Fiberblend®, AIM Herbal Release®, and AIM Para 90®. When mixed with pure water, AIM BarleyLife®, AIM Just Carrots®, and AIM RediBeets® contribute to a healthy inner environment. 

Use your knowledge

Adopting a healthy lifestyle is perhaps the best way to concentrate on cell environment. If you attempt to live a healthy lifestyle, you will be concerned with the environment both inside and outside your body. This will lead you to like-minded people and greater potential for interest in the AIM products and opportunity.

AIM HumiKleanse – for Heavy Metal Chelation

Posted on by

Humikleanse Heavy metal is a type of rock music that came into vogue in the late 1960s. It is characterized by distorted sounds, lengthy guitar solos, distinctive beats, and a lot of overpowering sound.

While a lot of parents and music purists might have wished for a pill to be rid of the heavy metal menace, it was not to be.

What is to be, however, is a capsule with an ingredient mix that has been shown to rid the body of another type of heavy metals – and these can do real damage to the body. AIM welcomes back a heavy metal chelation product, AIM HumiKleanse®, in response to Members asking for a product to deal with the potential ravages of lead, mercury, and cadmium.

The original HumiKleanse formula was a flavored powder with a sweetening ingredient that did not prove to be a popular choice with Members.

Say hello to a capsule with no flavoring and, therefore, no need to be sweetened.

All of us conduct our daily lives in bodies filled with metals. Without them, in fact, we could not survive. But just as mother always told you, moderation in all things is the best choice. However, sometimes these metals are found in excess in the body and can be poisonous. You can be suffering and not know it until it might be too late. It is a health concern not typically on most people’s radars, but that does not diminish its possible severity. HumiKleanse is a natural detoxifying supplement that helps your body eliminate heavy metal accumulations. At the same time, it boosts the body’s ability to absorb trace minerals (iron, potassium, magnesium, and calcium) necessary to keep the body in a healthful balance.

The activating ingredient in HumiKleanse is Humifulvate®, which is a mixture of humic acid and fulvic acid. You can thank some cows in Hungary and a few observant farmers for this modern-day chelation application. Livestock found grazing on peat moss near a lake in Hungary grew up stronger and healthier than cows grazing elsewhere. That resulted in some research, which in turn concluded that the humic acid and fulvic acid in combination with some natural amino acids helped play a role in maintaining the cows’ natural ion balance as well as remove heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury. From there, additional studies concluded that what was good for the cows is equally good for humans. And, by the way, this is no ordinary peat moss used in HumiKleanse. It is considered unusually pure and of the highest quality, most likely because the peat is estimated to be 5,000 to 10,000 years old and free from industrial activity.

But how does this stuff work? What is chelation? HumiKleanse eliminates heavy metals from the body through chelation. A substance is chelated when it is captured and transformed. What occurs with HumiKleanse is comparable to how a magnet works. The humic and fulvic acids act like a magnet for the large atoms of heavy metals by capturing them so they can be flushed from the body.

But the good news does not stop with the chelation process. Research indicates that humic acid may act as an antioxidant by ridding the body of free radicals. Heightened antioxidant activity has been shown to help to maintain healthy heart function.

OK, so we have HumiKleanse armed and ready to fight the heavy metals battle. But when we walk around we don’t hear the clunk, clunk of metals. Where do these dangerous metals come from? It isn’t like we dine out on lead, mercury, and cadmium.

Well actually, we kind of do. Cadmium is a naturally occurring metal that shows up in food, water, and cigarette smoke. Mercury is released into the air as a byproduct of many industrial processes, it is found in fish, is present in many dental fillings, and is used in a variety of household products. Lead was once a dominant product in gasoline, and its residue is found all over the planet. In addition, more than 90 percent of homes constructed prior to 1975 contain lead-based paint. Lead is also present in hair dye, batteries, and leaded crystal. The metals are here, there, everywhere – so beware.

But also be aware of HumiKleanse. AIM has armed you with a product that can remove heavy metals from the body, prevent the absorption of toxic substances such as heavy metals, help maintain the body’s immune system, aid in the retention of valuable trace minerals, and increase energy through improved oxygen transport.

Again, though, how does one know if heavy metals are a concern? AIM recommends taking a metal content test prior to beginning a course of HumiKleanse capsules so you have a base number for reference. Then take another test 30 days following the conclusion of use of HumiKleanse because the metal levels will be elevated during the process of elimination. Simple as that.

And don’t forget to thank those cows in Hungary.

Living Well for better stamina and endurance

Posted on by

Cole FamilyLiving well is not just a matter of maintaining good health. Making the right lifestyle choices and truly ‘living well’ means we have better stamina and endurance to handle the daily challenges and ‘curve-balls’ that life seems to toss our way.

Regular exercise can increase our physical endurance and help us to ward off unwanted illness. Some experts believe that exercise can even delay the aging process. 

While we can’t totally do away with the effects of aging, we can certainly reduce our stress and prevent the loss of muscle tone by adding exercise to our Living Well™ routine—along with a healthy diet. 

What do athletes know about exercise and Living Well™? 

The professional athlete would not step out onto the field without first taking care of himself. Athletes know that eliminating negative lifestyle choices, nourishing the body with healthy foods and vital nutrients, and replenishing the body with water and health supplements, can lead to better performance during training or competition. 

With these three simple steps, a healthy diet, and some exercise, we can perform our best in our daily activities and have the increased energy that we would like for our recreational time. We may even build extra strength and endurance to prepare for those times of stress in our lives. 

Healthy lifestyle choices 

We can begin by thinking about some of the lifestyle choices that we make each day, and how they impact our ability to perform well at work, school, or play. Athletes traditionally make ‘living well’ decisions by eliminating: smoking, fast-foods, excessive soda consumption, too much caffeine, drug abuse, excessive alcohol intake, and lack of sleep. We could add to the list: high stress, living or working near pollutants, physical inactivity, poor emotional outlook on life, lack of fiber, fruits, vegetables, and other complex carbohydrates for a healthy diet. 

Eliminate 

The importance of water 

For both the athlete and the weekend exerciser, elimination continues beyond healthful lifestyle choices. Virtually everyone agrees that flushing the body with plenty of water—before, during, and after exercise—is critical. This helps to prepare the body for exercise prior to the event and helps to fend off dehydration during exercise. Water helps to regulate body temperature and allows for good circulation and muscle function. 

Plenty of pure, clean water also helps to rid the body of harmful toxins. Toxins accumulate in the body on a daily basis. Every day we are exposed to heavy metals, chemicals, molds and fungus, all of which must be flushed from our system. To flush the body of toxins, adults should drink at least eight or more glasses of water per day. 

The importance of fiber 

A diet high in fiber, fruits, and vegetables will also aid in the elimination of toxins through the body and help you to feel better during exercise. Regular meal times and bowel movements are critical for those who are serious about their training routine. 

As a general rule, adequate fiber intake helps to regulate rapid highs and lows in blood sugar during exercise. Starting an exercise routine hungry or light-headed will not allow you to perform your best. Adjust your fiber intake to best suit your needs and the intensity level of the exercise. 

Nourish 

A healthy, well-balanced diet will provide all of the energy that the body needs for physical activity. Vital nutrients come from foods that offer complex carbohydrates, such as vegetables, fruits and grains; as well as proteins found in low-fat meats, poultry, fish and legumes. Instead of loading up on carbohydrates prior to exercise, try to make a well-balanced diet your goal every day. 

For the pre-exercise meal, experts recommend eating no more than 800 calories in the form of a small, high-carbohydrate snack, such as cereal with a sliced banana, a low-fat bagel, or a baked potato with soy yogurt and a vegetable topping. A post-workout snack might consist of fruit, fruit juice, followed later by a meal of mixed carbohydrate and low-fat protein. 

Nourishing the body also means getting plenty of rest after the activity. So, take time to sit on the bench and give yourself plenty of praise for a job well done, while enjoying that refreshing sip of well-deserved water! 

Replenish 

Water is the winning combination for exercise. As we’ve mentioned, replenishing the body with water is important —before, during, and after— the sporting event. It is vital in the replenishing of lost fluids, and helps to get the muscles moving. 

Refueling the body takes other forms as well. The after workout meal (as described above) will help to replace depleted stores of nutrients and allow the body to repair microscopic damage to muscle fibers. After adequate rest and a good meal, you may consider the use of dietary supplements to replenish the body with vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. Vitamins and minerals do not provide energy, but are essential in regulating chemical reactions within the body. 

Just remember that you can’t totally do away with the aging process or quickly dismiss years of exercise neglect, but with good lifestyle choices and a consistent effort, you can take steps toward improved health by truly Living Well™.

Pyramid emphasizes healing properties of food

Posted on by


Q: What is the Healing Foods Pyramid?
A
It is a health foods pyramid created by researchers at the University of Michigan. The pyramid is a triangle composed of 10 tiers. It is based on the idea that foods have the power to fight illnesses and ailments including chronic pain, heart trouble, and cancer. In brief, the pyramid advances the idea that we should all consume less meat and more plant products and we should enjoy a variety of foods that put an emphasis on healthy fats.

Q
What are the pyramid’s 10 tiers?
A
The base of the pyramid, and therefore the key to healthy living, is water because our bodies are more than 50 percent water. The five tiers or layers above water are to be eaten daily. These include fruits and vegetables, grains, legumes, seasonings, and healthy fats such as olive oil, eggs, and dairy products. The next two tiers or layers represent food choices that are to be consumed weekly. These are fish and seafood and lean meats. The ninth tier of the pyramid is called accompaniments, which includes tea, dark chocolate, and alcohol—all to be used in moderation. The top tier is blank, to be filled in by the user with a favorite treat, but in moderation.

Q
Who are the researchers who came up with the Healing Foods Pyramid?
A
It was developed by Monica Myklebust, MD, and Jenna Wunder, MPH, RD. Myklebust is the director of the University of Michigan Integrative Medicine Clinical Services. She believes that by combining the philosophies and practices of several healing systems, that people struggling with medical challenges will have options to pursue wellness and healing. Dr. Myklebust completed a residential fellowship at the University of Arizona in Integrative Medicine in 2002 and a residency at the May Graduate School of Medicine in 1996. She received her medical degree from the Minnesota School of Medicine in 1993.

Q
Is the Healing Foods Pyramid the same as the USDA Food Guide Pyramid?
A
No. The USDA’s guidelines were published in 2004 and are not the same as the Healing Foods Pyramid. They both use a pyramid to emphasize food choices and options but the selections are different. The Healing Foods Pyramid can be found at www.med.umich.edu/umim. The USDA pyramid can be found at www.mypyramid.gov.

Q
Does Dr. Myklebust have any eating tips?
A
Yes. (1) Eat two to four servings of fruit and five or more servings of vegetables daily. A serving is a half-cup. (2) At mealtime, half the plate should be fruits and vegetables leaving a quarter of the plate for protein including meat, fish, chicken, nuts, beans, eggs, cheese, or yogurt and another quarter for whole grains such as whole wheat pasta or brown rice. (3) When selecting fruits and vegetables, select one of every color because each color represents different nutrients. The basic colors are white, yellow, orange, red, and purple.

Q
Anything else important about the pyramid?
A
As consumers move from the bottom of the pyramid to the top, they should understand that the triangle shape is in proportion to the amount and importance of foods found on the pyramid. For example, Tier 1 is water, so plenty of water is necessary to good health. Tier 8 is lean meats so fewer of them should be part of a healthy diet. The grains category contains corn, squash, and sweet potatoes, which are vegetables but these vegetables act like grains in the body. In general, says Dr. Myklebust, the Healing Foods Pyramid derives its name from the belief that there are healing properties in food. “Food is medicine,” she says.

The Healthy Cell Concept – Cell Food

Cell Food– first line of defense in
the Healthy Cell Concept™

The Healthy Cell Concept

As we get busy on our own personal road to wellness, it may be easy to forget the basic principles that can provide the most important steps toward improving our daily health.

At The AIM Companies™, we call these daily basics the Healthy Cell Concept™. Cell food, cell exercise, cell environment, cell protection, and a healthy mental attitude are all a part of the Healthy Cell Concept™. By taking just a few simple steps toward following these basic concepts, we can develop healthy habits that will be with us for a lifetime. For you, or someone that you know, the results may be improved health—and a more enjoyable lifestyle!

In this issue of Partners, we will look at our first step in the Healthy Cell Concept™ by discussing Cell Food. (Stay with us as we cover the remaining steps in future issues of Partners!)

Cell Food—you are what you eat!

Cell food is what we eat. Our bodies take this food, digest it, capture its nutrients, and transport these nutrients to our cells. What we eat becomes the cell structure of our bodies, and the cell structure determines our physical—healthy and unhealthy—nature. This is why we should be aware of what we eat. If we eat unhealthy foods, we generate unhealthy and toxic cells, which means that our bodies become unhealthy and toxic. In other words, our bodies cannot maintain health if we cram junk food into them!

What does it take to have healthy cells?

Our cells need certain nutrients, such as: protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, water, and enzymes. Proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are known as macronutrients because we need a generous supply (“macro” means “large”) to stay healthy. Enzymes, vitamins, and minerals (as well as amino acids) are called micronutrients because they are needed in smaller quantities. The Healthy Cell Concept™ does not mandate which foods to eat, but rather offers fundamental elements that you should consider when making healthy food choices.

Proteins

These are essential to maintaining the structure and function of all life—and are vital for the growth, repair, and maintenance of muscles, blood, internal organs, skin, hair, and nails. Most people think of only meat when they think of protein. Although meat is an excellent source of protein, its consumption can become problematic. Eating too much meat may result in too many purines, which leads to too much uric acid, which can result in gout and kidney stones. Meat also contains too much fat, which lead to problems associated with fat consumption: obesity, diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and possibly even cancer. Alternate (healthier) sources of protein may include chickpeas and other legumes, as well as whole wheat grains, nuts, seeds, and eggs. For meat-lovers, it is generally recommended to eat 2 to 3 serving per week, achieving 10 to 15 percent of the total diet from meat or other animal sources of protein. Studies show that vegetarians easily get enough protein.

Carbohydrates

These foods come from plants and are the main source of energy for all body functions. They are best energy source we have; they keep the digestive system fit and clean, and provide nutrients for the brain and nervous systems. Simple carbohydrates are simple sugars and are found in carbonated soft drinks, most desserts, candy, jelly and jam. The refined sugars and white flours that make up fast (processed) foods and white breads are also in this category. Eating too much of these foods weakens the immune system, meaning that we cannot fight off disease as effectively as we should be able to. Complex carbohydrates (think of these as starch and fiber), on the other hand, include such foods as: whole grains, brown rice, barley, oatmeal, beans, raw vegetables and raw fruits with their natural fibers still intact (unprocessed). North Americans typically consume 11 gr of fiber per day, which is far short of the recommended 25 to 40 gr per day for adults.

Fats

Although many North Americans try to eat a no-fat diet, essential fats are important to our cells. Healthy fats, known as essential fatty acids (EFAs), come from such sources as: flaxseed oil, olive oil, sunflower seed oil, sesame seed oil, grains, seeds, and dark greens. These healthy fats help to maintain the structural components of our cells. They restore energy, help us digest our foods, transport nutrients throughout the cells, and contribute toward healthy hormone balance. EFAs are typically polyunsaturated or monounsaturated. Flaxseed oil in particular is a polyunsaturated oil that is rich in omega-3 content, and it appears to decrease the risk of heart disease. Unhealthy fats (saturated and trans fats) remain troublesome in the modern North American diet. Meats contain high amounts of saturated fats, and over consumption can contribute toward heart disease. Many fats are hidden in our modern foods. For example, cakes, cookies, snack items, and fast foods are loaded with saturated fat as well as trans fats. Trans fat, comes from fat that has been hydrogenated (processed). Trans fats can increase the health risk for heart disease and raise blood cholesterol levels. It is best to avoid trans fats and saturated fats, and choose the healthier polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, if you can.

Enzymes

Most people don’t think about enzymes, but they are critical for proper digestion and metabolic action. Enzymes are the sparks that initiate or speed up the essential chemical reactions required by the body’s organs, tissues, and cells—we need enzymes to live! If we do not replenish our supply of enzymes, we run the risk of ill health. Cooked, processed, and microwaved foods are virtually depleted of enzymes. By contrast, raw whole foods such as fruits and vegetables are loaded with enzymes. The more enzymes you get, the healthier you are, and the more raw foods you eat, the more enzymes you get! This gives good reason to include plenty of raw fruits and vegetables in your daily diet.

Vitamins and Minerals

Vitamins and minerals are noncaloric, organic nutrients that are vital for life. Vitamins are integral helpers in digestion and in virtually all cellular functions. Vitamins also act as coenzymes—that is, they help enzymes do their jobs by activating them. B vitamins in particular play important roles as coenzymes. Minerals are naturally occurring elements that perform structural and catalytic roles in the body. Minerals are not destroyed by cooking, unlike vitamins. There have been volumes written on vitamins and minerals, their importance, what they do, how to get them and in what amounts. Vitamins and minerals obtained from whole food sources are easily absorbed by the body. This is yet another reason to consume plenty of raw foods, such as whole fruits and vegetables.

What steps can I take for healthy cells?
