REPPED: Here at NewsTarget, we've openly and independently recommended hundreds of natural health and green living products, all without asking for (or accepting) any money from the companies we publicize. Through our recommendations, we've helped numerous companies launch new products and connect with customers, and we've helped literally millions of consumers find new products that enhance health, protect the environment, improve quality of life and offer other similar benefits. |
| We've strongly recommended the Amazon Herb Company for several years, but we find that most network marketing companies use too much filler and not enough quality ingredients. The Amazon Herb Company is a rare exception, and we do recommend a number of Amazon Herb distributors.)
Never a fee, never a commission
Hopefully, you already know that NewsTarget doesn't play financial games with the companies whose products we recommend. There is never a fee for getting a story written about you, and we will never ask you for a commission on the sales that happen as a result of the article appearing. |
| I'm often asked by makers of natural health and green living products, "How can we get our products reviewed or recommended by NewsTarget?"
Today I'm announcing guidelines for submitting products for review and possible recommendation here on NewsTarget.com. Product manufacturers and P.R. consultants are welcome to follow these guidelines in submitting products to us.
1. Start with a quality product. No junk.
I only recommend products of superior quality. |

First, there's been a change in the recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) and their Canadian equivalent, the recommended Nutrient Intakes (RNIs). Both the RDAs and RNIs are being replaced by the Dietary Reference Intakes, or DRIs, which consist of four items:
1. Estimated Average Requirement, or EAR: The amount needed to meet half of your daily needs, assuming you're healthy
2. recommended Dietary Allowance, or RDA: How much is needed to meet the daily needs of 97 percent of the healthy population
3. Adequate Intake, orAI: An estimate used when the RDA cannot be determined

About Fruit Intake
On any given day about 29% of the population consumes at least the minimum number of servings of fruit recommended (2 servings per day); 24% consume the number of servings recommended based on caloric intake (2 servings per day for those consuming less than 2200 calories, 3 for those consuming 2800 calories, 4 for those consuming 2800 calories or more). About 48% consume less than one serving of fruit a day.

In the left hand column you see the recommended amounts of essential amino acids for an average adult.18 In the right column you can see the amounts of those amino acids contained in lambsquarters and kale. Please notice that dark green leafy vegetables contain similar or larger amounts of amino acids than the recommended Daily Allowance (RDA).
As you can see from this chart, one pound of kale has even more protein than is recommended by the USDA per day. Yet, by erroneously placing all parts of plants (roots, stalks, blossoms, spears, greens, etc. |

America are not getting the daily recommended amount of fiber in their diet; fewer than 11 percent of Americans consume the USDA recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables a day; junk foods such as chips, snacks, desserts, and soft drinks now constitute 30 percent of the American daily food intake. Fruits and vegetables no longer pack the nutritional wallop they once did; their nutrient value has declined as much as 38 percent since 1950. |

This might be hard for you to believe, but it wasn't too long ago that doctors routinely recommended smoking cigarettes, too. The Journal of the American Medical Association, in fact, ran numerous ads promoting Camels as "recommended by more doctors than any other cigarette!" Doctors talked up the "benefits" of smoking cigarettes, urging people to start smoking in order to improve brain function or even -- get this -- make their teeth stronger! |

Emerald Balance was overwhelmed with calls and sample requests when we recommended their superfood product, Pillar of Light was flooded with calls following our article on their experimental healing energy machine, and the NewsTarget reader response has hit some companies so hard that they sold out their entire product inventory in six hours! (Don't worry, they'll make more.) I've received countless thank you letters, calls and emails from companies we've recommended, and they're all astonished to learn that we do this with honesty, integrity and no asking for money or a cut of sales. |

And above all, as recommended in chapter two, find a physician that you trust, who practices integrative medicine.
Don't believe the overhyped claims of those in the supplement industry who take advantage of the vulnerabilities and the hopes of others. Many are selling snake oil. One rule of thumb to always remember: If it sounds too good to be true, it is! This is a good thing to remember in most areas of life. |

He pestered his parents until, through a friend, they were recommended to Ron's clinic. After six months on the Controlled Pattern Breathing programme Andrew was able to enjoy ball games and participate in sporting activities, especially bike riding. He is now highly competitive and just loves playing cricket, football, volleyball and tennis. Andrew knows he must take time to warm up slowly and has learned to relax by using 'self hypnosis' (see Chapter 13). He starts his sporting activities slowly. |
| No specific sports programme is recommended in this book, as the best sport for anyone will depend on the individual. However, before taking up a new sport discuss it with your doctor, who may wish to assess your physical capabilities first.
Which Sport?
Acquiring skills of sharp co-ordination, agility, quick thinking and reflex reactions can be of enormous benefit to someone with asthma. The stamina that comes with physical fitness is also an asset to anyone. The training done by a boxer, gymnast or ballet dancer develops these, as well as flexibility, strength and concentration. |
| Supplements that contain a variety of ingredients are available in liquid, tablet or powder form from health food stores and pharmacies, and the recommended daily dosage is usually supplied with the particular product. If in doubt about what supplements would do you the most good, consult a practitioner.
Minerals
It is the function of minerals to build basic cell substances, and each cell needs specific minerals for the body's chemistry to work properly. There are about 25 minerals essential for good health. |

I remember a story one mother shared shortly after starting her child on my recommended supplements. Her five-year-old was sledding in the snow. As was the custom, the mom was patiently waiting at the door with the child's inhaler. Her child had not been able to undertake any activity, especially outside in the cold, for more than two years without the aid of her inhaler. How amazed the mother grew as her little girl was able to sled in the snow all morning without once needing her inhaler.
I also remember the time our family got together in Sioux City, Iowa. |

When asthma is severe a nebuliser may be recommended. A nebuliser ensures that even more medication reaches the lungs than does with a spacer. The medication is put into the nebuliser in solution and an air pump delivers it to the mouth and nose, via a mask, as a very fine spray under pressure.
There are side effects, however slight, associated with any medication, and you should ask your medical practitioner exactly what these may be when you are prescribed a new drug. Consider these effects in relation to yourself and be aware if these contraindications appear. |
| Keep up the recommended level of liquid, too, especially as you grow older, when the thirst drive diminishes: your body's need for water does not.
Did you know that large quantities of vitamins are destroyed with inappropriate cooking methods? Review the way you prepare your meals—are you destroying your nourishment? There are many good books available on how best to cook food in order to retain its nutritional content and reduce vitamin loss, but in general steam vegetables in preference to boiling them, and be careful not to overcook grains or pulses. |

It is highly recommended that you use a water purification system not only on your drinking water tap, but for the whole house, and if out to eat, avoid drinking restaurant tap water.
Were chlorine and fluoride the only chemicals we had to worry about, that would be bad enough. But as discussed, food manufacturers and the chemical companies have decided to add thousands of synthetic chemicals to our food and beverages in the form of preservatives, dyes, flavorings, flavor enhancers, stabilizers and artificial sweeteners. You truly do not know what you are eating. |

Treatment is then recommended to balance the disharmony of the body's yin and yang.
YIN AND YANG AND ASTHMA
There are similarities between yin and yang and the philosophy behind Ron's treatment of asthma. It is Ron's belief that asthma can be relieved by counterbalancing what happens during an attack. For instance, the asthmatic's very short breathing pattern is balanced by the long breaths of the Controlled Pattern Breathing.

Colour affects us in many ways. |

Given Fitzgerald's research on food processing, getting the "Recommended Daily Allowances" of the vitamins we need from the foods we eat may not be possible. That does not mean you should not improve your food intake or avoid educating yourself on how to get the most from what we have available. Learning about the different vitamins and minerals in the foods we eat can be useful in maintaining some semblance of a balanced diet. |

However, in my opinion, purified water is not recommended for drinking over the long term. Purifying processes destabilize its molecular structure. In addition, distilled and reverse osmosis waters are not neutral, as is commonly thought; they are acidic, with a pH of approximately 5.7 to 6.0. When consumed over time, these waters can represent a considerable drain on the body's alkaline resources.
Dr. Emoto's work with different samples of distilled water found that although their frozen samples showed different formations, none had an organized crystalline structure. |

Since omeprazole (Prilosec) is now available as a generic, it is the cheapest and therefore the recommended PPL
You have probably seen the man on TV talking about the "purple pill," or Nexium (esomeprazole magnesium). This particular purple pill is a replacement of the original purple pill, Prilosec. Both should probably be called the green pill because of all the money they have made and continue to make for the manufacturer, AstraZenica. They are both widely popular and equally effective medications. |
