The most important secret to good health is to unlock the body’s potential to heal itself. With our understanding of the different philosophies of the body we must focus upon the immune system and assist it to evolve to its highest potential.

For the immune system to reach this potential it must have raw materials in the form of organic nutrients at its disposal. Ideally these organic nutrients would come from whole foods grown in organic soils because the quality of any plant is a reflection of the environment it is grown in.

The immune system is so intelligent it recognises the difference between manmade biochemical nutrients and natural ones produced by the body’s own cells or found in nature’s whole foods.

The body reacts in a form of shock to manmade nutrients which it identifies as a ‘foreign substance’. Foreign substances cause the body to shut off other parts of the immune system, particularly in the stem cells where the basic building blocks of healthy new cells are spawned. Therefore the potential for future repair of damaged cells is compromised.

To actualize the potential of the immune system we must first address the needs of the body in relation to bacteria. The balance of good bacteria and what has been labelled as ‘bad bacteria’ must be in a ratio of 85% good and 15% bad. Once this most important ratio falls out of balance, disease manifests in the body and overwhelms the immune system.

Most holistic practitioners agree that disease begins in the colon. Once putrefactive bacteria take hold in the bowels all kinds of toxic materials are released into the body environment. Bad bacteria imbalances allow fungus and yeast to cross these important lines of balance resulting in candida and thrush.

Antibiotics found in drug therapy and in the meat and foods we eat destroy the important balance of bacteria in our body.

The air we now are forced to breathe in the world’s cities has over 600 toxins that also affect this balance. Birth control pills, heat, cold, preservatives found in most foodstuff, salt, alcohol, colas, fluorides, and chlorines, just to name a few, also destroy or compromise this delicate balance of bacteria in the gut!

So - we need to adjust the bacteria balance in our intestinal tract and then saturate the body with a broad spectrum of whole food organic nutrients. We must learn to replace the good bacteria on a daily basis. If this is not done then no matter what remedy, therapy, diet or drug is used, it is all for naught!

The Environmental Working Group’s investigation of nearly 1,000 brand-name sunscreen products finds that 4 out of 5 don’t provide protection and/or contain chemicals that may pose health hazards. Some of the worst offenders are leading brands like Coppertone, Banana Boat and Neutrogena.

Many millions of cases of skin cancer are diagnosed worldwide each year. Yet due to huge legislative gaps, companies in many countries are free to claim - but not provide - broad spectrum protection.

Your skin is one of the first areas of your body to will show signs of aging. The best way to stay looking young and beautiful is to take good care of your skin! Good skin care habits are important no matter what your age or gender. You can care for your skin organically with these tips:

Use Gentle Cleansers

Cleaning your skin is an essential part of good skin care, especially the skin on your face. However, many of the skin care products on the market today actually have abrasive chemicals and dangerous ingredients in them that could harm your skin more than they help. Always look for certified organic cleansers as you build your skin care routine.

Avoid washing your face with soap.  It is the wrong pH for your skin, and may strip the oil from your skin. This may seem like a good idea, because too much oil can cause problems like acne or other blemishes, but your skin needs some oil to be healthy. Soap on the face can lead to dry skin problems.

You may also want to avoid products that have artificial perfumes or dyes in them. These can irritate sensitive skin and do not add any benefit to your skin. An all-natural certified organic cleanser will have a pleasant, natural scent, rather than an artificial one!

When you are done cleansing your skin, gently pat it dry. This keeps some of the moisture on the skin.

Don’t Forget the Moisturizer

Moisturizing is an important part of healthy skin. Once you are done cleansing, follow up with a certified organic moisturizer. This will lock moisture in, and keep your skin soft and supple.

Keep in mind, there are many different organic moisturizers out there. Choose one that a) is certified organic, and b) best matches your skin type. If you have particularly oily skin, for instance, a moisturizer with a lot of healthy oils will not help. On the other hand, very dry skin may need a more intense moisturizer.  MiEssence moisturizers are available in four different skin care profiles; for dry/mature, oily, combination or sensitive skin.

Always moisturize as soon as possible after cleansing. This locks in the water that is absorbed into your skin. You should moisturize your face daily - morning and evening.

Taking care of your skin is simple if you have the right products to use. Certified organic skin care will ensure your skin is only exposed to natural oils and cleaners that will help you stay looking young and healthy. If you are looking to buy a new skin care product, read the label first! If it is full of chemicals and names you cannot pronounce, think twice about putting it on your skin! Choose a certified organic product instead.

After years of pressure from scientists, citizen groups and health advocates, the FDA has posted a statement to its website that is nothing less than a watershed event in oral hygiene history.

Although the FDA has previously adamantly denied any and all scientific evidence pointing to negative health impacts from mercury fillings, the FDA has now posted the following to its website:

“Dental amalgams contain mercury, which may have neurotoxic effects on the nervous systems of developing children and fetuses…Pregnant women and persons who may have a health condition that makes them more sensitive to mercury exposure, including individuals with existing high levels of mercury bioburden, should not avoid seeking dental care, but should discuss options with their health practitioner.”

Another toxic danger in the arena of oral hygiene is fluoridated toothpastes. MiEssence toothpaste contains no fluoride.
