National Alzheimer's Month

MicroPQQ® from Progressive Laboratories is scientifically formulated to support the powerhouse of the cells – mitochondria.
Mitochondria are cellular energy generators contained within each cell of the body and provide energy for the entire body through the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is used as a source of chemical energy and regulates metabolism. Certain organs, such as the heart and brain, are very dense with mitochondria as these organs require significant energy to function properly.
PQQ (pyrroloquinoline quinone) is a neuroprotective compound that has shown promise in both human and/or animal studies to:
- Improve performance on memory tests
- Stimulates the production and release of nerve growth factors to support neurons in the brain
- Safeguard against certain types of protein behaviors that are associated with Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease
- Protect against oxidative stress related to stroke and trauma
- Protect the brain against neurotoxins like mercury
- Reduces the damaging effects of over-stimulated neurons associated with seizures and neurodegenerative disease
A 2010 peer-reviewed UC Davis study found that PQQ not only protected the mitochondria in mice, it also promoted NEW mitochondria within aging cells. Because of this unique ability to promote cellular energy and function, PQQ was found to be more effective than the standard beta blocker used to protect the heart after a heart attack.
National Diabetes Month
Nearly 29.1 million Americans have diabetes, a serious disease in which blood glucose (blood sugar) levels are above normal. Shockingly, there are nearly three times that number who are Pre-Diabetic. That is 86 million Americans age 20 and older had prediabetes in 2012, up from 79 million in 2010. Estimates are that a quarter of all seniors age 65+ have diabetes (diagnosed or undiagnosed). Most people have Type 2 Diabetes, which used to be called adult-onset diabetes as it was more common in people over age 45, but with the rise of obesity among children and young people, that is no longer an accurate description.
We're #1! When it comes to worldwide sugar consumption, the USA takes the cake. Sugar's prevalence in the Standard American Diet (SAD) has wreaked havoc on our health. How? Inflammation. Consuming high amounts of simple carbohydrates - white bread, pasta, white rice, or refined sugar - results in advanced glycation products or AGEs (a glucose-protein molecule leading to damaged cross-linked proteins in our cells). When our bodies try to break these molecule apart, it stimulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines from the immune system, and this can lead to arthritis, cataracts, heart disease, and even wrinkled skin.
Sugar is addictive. When we eat sugar: the reward center in our brain lights up, and we want more. But at what health cost? The average American eats 19 teaspoons of added sugar a day, when doctors recommend 6 teaspoons tops. Luckily, it's not hopeless - there are ways to re-train your brain and taste buds to crave less sugar. Like any addiction, small steps can lead to big changes.
A good start is coming to the free class Thursday, Nov. 12, "SUGAR DETOX DIET EXPLAINED" to learn more about the natural (non-synthetic) low-glycemic sweeteners available, and other ways to reduce your sugar load without crashing. Our own Suzan Moody will be leading the class - find more details below or call us to register!
Find many of these sugar alternatives on sale in November! We have superior Stevia, naturally-derived Xylitol from non-GMO sources, and low-glycemic Coconut sugar or Agave Syrup (organic of course).

Heel pain/soreness (heel spurs)

GET YOUR VITALITY ON!
It's that time of year again where sun exposure becomes more and more scarce, and for the majority of us in the Northern climates, our vitamin D levels begin to decline. Did you know that Vitamin D regulates over 3000 genes? It's no wonder a drop in this important vitamin can manifest itself by feelings of malaise or depression, or an increase in minor aches and pains.
While we can take oral Vitamin D3, this is a fat-soluble vitamin form which relies on LDL cholesterol to transport. Sunshine stimulates vitamin D sulfate synthesis, which is a water soluble form that can travel freely through the bloodstream to maximize its availability to our bodies.
Keep your vitamin D levels optimal with Vitality Tanning! Rather than using a standard tanning bed which may use a high EMF magnetic ballast rather than an electronic ballast, our bed has much lower electromagnetic frequency (EMF). Our specialized tanning bed uses patented bulbs that give off UVA, UVB, Infrared and red light. The sun produces about 95% UVA light and 5% UVB; in the Vitality bed UVA and UVB are more balanced, so there is more vitamin D-producing UVB than in sunlight. Infrared light has been used therapeutically for muscle aches and injuries. Red light actually stimulates collagen production in the skin, a known wrinkle fighter.
Internal Sunblock? Yes, you can get an antioxidant supplement called Astaxanthin which acts as an "internal sunblock", especially important for those who don't tan easily. UVA light in moderation causes skin to tan and is our skin's way of protecting from burns, and it is has the deeper penetrating light. Astaxanthin is a type of phytonutrient sourced from microalgae that is grown in the dark and then suddenly exposed to intense light. Astaxanthin is produced as a natural defense mechanism and our skin can benefit! Find it with our other antioxidant supplements in the Immune System section from Healthy Origins, starting at $23.99 for 60 caps.
For more info on Vitamin D and the Vitality bed, see Dr. Mercola's video.
BUDDY DEAL! Refer a Friend and you both can save in November.
It's simple - you buy 5 or more Tanning sessions and you tell a friend, when they come in and buy 5 or more sessions and mention your name, you BOTH will get an additional 5 sessions FREE*!
You and your friend do not have to purchase at the same time, as long as you both buy during November.
*Sessions do not have to be used in November; you may delay start date. Bonus sessions must be used during the regular expiry period (for example, 5 sessions purchased= 5 weeks to use them all, starting after Session 1 of the package has been used).
