 Remember, you don't need to drink from a cow to be a healthy human.
Avoiding medically unjustified surgeries
Lastly, 16.1 percent reported avoiding a surgical procedure and making positive lifestyle changes instead. This is a very important number because it shows that people can take control of their health outcome. By using nutrition and lifestyle changes, they can make positive decisions that eliminate the need for surgery in the first place. |
| So, that's the wrap-up for the "healthy actions" section of this survey. We will discuss more survey results in the subsequent article. |

 Kilham:It's the healthy Living Channel. It's available through satellite and cable in about 20 million homes in North America. Maybe eventually we'll get lucky and be on Discovery or something. Right now, that's where we are. I'm happy about it.
Mike:Well I'm sure you'll have a lot of success with the show.
Kilham:I hope to have a lot of success with it.
Mike:Your website is www.MedicineHunter.com.
Kilham:That's my website and people can surf around on there and find information about different botanicals and get links to different beneficial products that I recommend. |

 At the same time, you'll notice that people who tend to be healthy, who seem to be aware of what's going on around them, who look intelligent, whose eyes light up, who have some energy evident in the way they hold their bodies and in the way they interact with others around them -- these people are intelligent shoppers. In their carts, you'll notice they have lots of fruits and vegetables, lots of raw food ingredients, and you'll see that they tend to buy things in bulk. They'll buy bulk ingredients like brown rice, beans, or legumes. |

| In fact, a lot of foods claim to be healthy on the fronts of their labels while hiding dangerous ingredients in the ingredients list. So for NewsTarget information to have helped 57.7 percent of readers start actually reading the food ingredient labels is a major improvement. If we could get that percentage of the entire nation reading food labels, we would experience dramatic health improvements as a result.
Forty-three point nine percent of NewsTarget readers reported increasing their level of physical exercise. This again is a phenomenal number. |

| Keep it healthy and keep it inexpensive. These are going to be like, $1 a day to get a sexual effect, not $9 or $10 a tablet for something that might blow the arteries in your head. Let's get real. Is that too strong?
Mike:No, no that's right in line. That's the message that people want to hear. They want real solutions that don't compromise their safety.
Kilham:I think death is too stiff a penalty for a good erection. I'm sorry.
Mike:We'll quote you on that one. Let's talk about your TV show, "Medicine Hunter TV. |
| Really, if people either want to boost sex drive because they've been sick and have been on some sort of medication like Prozac that completely destroys your libido, they can take these products to build back up a strong, healthy sex drive. They also avoid the risk of growing a beard, as in the case of women taking testosterone, which is just completely insane.
Mike:That's unacceptable, right?
Kilham:Totally unacceptable. The "Hot Plants for Him" is also significantly beneficial for improving erectile function. |

| These are all nutrients attainable from the whole grain, but that are hardly present at all in refined grain. That's why I'm very happy to see this number at 40.5 percent.
Giving up unhealthy foods and beverages
Now here's a number that's astonishing: Forty-three point one percent reported quitting their consumption of soft drinks. I've written many articles about the dangers of soft drinks, including articles that looked at the link between soft drink consumption and diabetes, loss of bone density and even mental depression. |

 Remember that fat tastes great, so you're missing out if you take healthy oils as nutritional supplements. Use it as part of your foods, and you'll get to enjoy the delicious taste of these oils while you're helping your cardiovascular health at the same time.
You can also use macadamia nut oil as part of your salad dressing. You might want to use it with balsamic vinegar to make an oil and vinegar salad dressing. Or you can soak some salad dressing herbs in a bottle of macadamia nut oil, and make your own dressing that way. |

| Observe people and learn
When you go into a grocery store, observe people: watch who buys what, how healthy or diseased they look and what economic status you think they have. You will begin to notice some interesting patterns.
One is that those who seem to be having the most financial trouble are buying the foods with the highest markup. They are unable to make good decisions about what foods offer nutritional value. They buy things like instant macaroni and cheese, dinner mixes, potato chips, and carbonated soft drink beverages. |
| They still say, "But I can't afford to be healthy. Mike, you're talking about all these things, but I can't buy any of it! I'm living in poverty. I don't have an extra dollar." I tell them, "You've got enough food to feed yourself pretty well. You’ve got enough money to buy all that food - you can afford good nutrition."
Good nutrition is less expensive than junk nutrition
Like most people, you're probably spending money right now on bad nutrition. |
| There's not one thing in there that's from nature, nothing that's healthy. There’s not even a bottle of water in there. There’s not one fruit, vegetable, nut or seed.
Your grocery receipt tells your health future
I wish I had some way to show these people a flashcard and they would instantly just get it. They would get the idea that all of that disease they're experiencing is directly a result of these foods in their grocery cart. It is cause and effect. "A" causes "B." If you buy and eat those groceries, you're going to have these diseases. |
| We should have our own system, where we actually teach people how to be healthy. Then we should have our own society, where our children aren't labeled ADHD, where they don't get doped up on heavy narcotics just to attend school, where people live long lives and don't have huge medical bills, and where we don't have corruption and collusion between the USDA and the food companies that just want to sell overpriced, low nutritional density foods to a population in order to make money.
In such a nation, we can actually do some of the important stuff for humanity. |
| Our society is paying an enormous price, probably in the tens of billions of dollars each year, just from the fact that people aren't healthy. Actually, it's got to be over $100 billion by the time you add up the loss of life, the medical costs, the loss of quality of life (not just the longevity but quality of life), the loss of work productivity, the loss of good minds -- because nervous systems degenerate when people start consuming these foods. |

 There's really no effort taken by the mainstream food industry to make foods healthy; there's only an effort to make them appear to be healthy. It's all about marketing. The same junk food crap that wasn't labeled with any health claims two years ago is now labeled "all natural" and positioned in the healthy food section of the grocery store. Same ingredients, new spin. It's all about positioning.
All this doesn't mean there aren't some genuinely natural products available in the marketplace today. There are, but they aren't manufactured by the big brand-name food companies. |

 Most people who carry the virus show no symptoms at all, and girls with healthy immune systems and healthy lifestyles (diet, nutrition, etc.) have a near-zero risk of ever developing cervical cancer, even if they're exposed to HPV on a repeated basis. The virus isn't the disease: It's the terrain of the person carrying the virus! If they're unhealthy and vulnerable, then of course they're not going to be able to keep the virus in check.

 So, that's the wrap-up of the healthy results section of this survey. In the next section, we'll talk about how this information is helping people enhance their career performance and work performance. The bottom line is this information has the power to dramatically improve the health outcome of people who choose to read it, learn it and apply it. |

 You can eat them baked, put them in pastas or put them on a healthy pizza made with soy cheese and organic crust. Baked garlic cloves are delicious and they're outstanding for your health. They don’t have the bite of raw garlic cloves.
Garlic supplements are also good, and the best company out there is Kyolic. Buy their aged garlic supplements. I do, and I recommend them to my family and friends. In fact, garlic has many other health benefits beyond cholesterol: the herb also fights cancer and greatly enhances immune system function. |
| Thus, in addition to supporting healthy cholesterol, avoiding red meat will also save you from all of the terrible negative side effects of environmental toxins.
Avoid dairy products
Avoiding dairy products is also important for cardiovascular health. Hydrogenated cows' milk is something that absolutely does not belong in the human body. It is an artificially processed food. It doesn’t have any justifiable purpose for human nutrition. Hydrogenated milk would probably kill baby cows just due to the negative effects of eating homogenized fat molecules. |
| With all of that in place: getting lots of water into your diet, avoiding processed salt (sodium chloride), consuming garlic and blueberries and other natural substances such as red yeast rice and combining it with moderate levels of cardiovascular exercise, you will quite readily and noticeably reduce your LDL cholesterol levels, bringing them back into a healthy balance.
It's really not difficult. This isn't rocket science at all. There are no prescription drugs needed whatsoever. All that you need to do is make lifestyle changes that are proven to enhance your cholesterol health. |
| The fact that you are now avoiding meat and dairy products is excellent progress in reducing your high blood pressure and restoring healthy cholesterol levels. The fact that you are also consuming a lot of fruits is outstanding. Be sure to get plenty of berries in your diet at the same time.
Let's talk about high blood pressure first and what a person can do to reduce high blood pressure naturally without relying on prescription drugs or surgical procedures. |

| We're out to show people this whole category of healthy, beneficial plant medicines. I will not do a show on anything that people can't get because I want people to be empowered by this information and be able to get and use these plants.
Mike:So on this show do you get crazy like the "Crocodile Hunter," or what do you do?
Kilham:I don't handle poisonous snakes but I think getting a little bit crazy is part and parcel of going deep into other cultures. We engage in shamanic rituals. We do all kinds of things that are consistent with what's going on in that culture. |

| Without question, macadamia nut oil is very good for your health; not just your cardiovascular health, but also the healthy function of your nervous system. It has been one of my top recommended healing foods for quite some time. But I've never seen it conveniently available as an oil, and that's the exciting news here. Now you can go into a health food store or finer grocery stores and find this Nature's Way EFA Gold MacNut Oil product right on the shelf.
As always, this is not a paid endorsement of any kind. |

 It's actually difficult to experience noticeable benefits from supplements when you're already on a healthy diet, and I've been eating in a very healthy way for years. But what I learned recently is that Juice Feasting was a step up from my existing healthy diet. It has allowed me to take my personal health to the next level, and now my life is enormously more enjoyable because of it.
It's also a whole lot simpler. Eating is really, really simple. I eat one cooked meal a day -- usually a baked sweet potato and some raw nuts. (I love the raw cashews from www.TransitionNutrition. |

 I've seen that coming, plus the fact that food manufacturers are looking for various ways to make more healthy food products with whole ingredients rather than using chemicals to give you the nutrients. As a dietician, I see them using whole foods put together in a way that they can deliver the same nutritional benefit, with the phytochemicals and all the antioxidants that come with them, too.
Mike: Absolutely.
Leventry: I see that coming. It's just going to take a while.
Mike: I see the trend. |

 The line is called Lluvia, and it's the first line of personal care products that I have been willing to stand up and talk about as being healthy. These products contain potent rain forest botanicals, but more importantly, they have no artificial fragrance, no fillers and no sodium laureth sulfate. They are not made with things like transmission fluid and brake fluid, which are the chemicals found in most other cosmetic products. This is an exceptional product line, and I'm going to discuss these products in more detail in future articles. |
| If you ever want to see a bunch of people with a really vibrant, healthy glow in their skin, just go to a raw food group. Those who have been eating raw foods the longest will probably have the best skin.
But most of the world isn't going to convert to raw foods, so most people need external nutrition for their skin, and in that case, I think this Lluvia product line is the very best I've found yet. If you're going to put something on your skin, let it be this. |

 Therefore, if you want to be healthy as a whole person, and have healthy organs, healthy function, and good longevity, then get your cells healthy. The only way to do that is to eat superfoods, nutritional supplements, take lots of vitamins and minerals, and avoid depleting those substances by refusing to ingest foods and beverages that actually strip your body of nutrition. Those include white flour, added sugars, soft drinks, and so on.
At the same time, you have to keep in mind what level of exercise you are subjecting yourself to. |

 You don't have to gouge the customer in order to have a healthy company. At the same time, you can't afford to do all this fancy marketing if you're putting your money into the ingredients.
Mike: You see that with food for people all the time. There are a lot of heavily marketed, coupon foods out there.
Newman: How much do you think went into making a bag of potato chips? And look at what is spent on their advertising. That is why you pay $3 to $4 for a bag of potato chips today.
Mike: Soft drinks are my favorite. It's all marketing and no substance. But here we go. |
