Even better than the wonder drugs?

The Benefits of Grapeseed Oil:

• Grape seed oil is reputed to contain plentiful antioxidants, as well as to lower cholesterol levels.

• Its healthful qualities have been appreciated for over 100 years.

• High in antioxidants, Grapeseed Oil contains Vitamin E, and a group of bioflavonoids known as procyanadins.

• Grapeseed Oil is a polyunsaturated oil that is rich in linoleic acid. One of two essential fatty acids that the human body can not produce.

• Grape seeds derive their medicinal effects from compounds called proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins have demonstrated antioxidant activity and are believed to play a role in the stabilization of collagen and maintenance of elastin-two critical proteins in connective tissue that support organs, joints, blood vessels, and muscle.

• Results from a number of studies indicate that grape seed may be useful in relieving a number of conditions including vision difficulty, chronic venous insufficiency, lymphedema, varicose veins, cancer, premenstrual syndrome, dental cavities, and variety of circulatory disorders.

• It does not aggravate acne, and is purported to have regenerative and restructuring virtues due to its essential fatty acid content, which is important for skin and cell membranes. Its slightly astringent nature may also help tone the skin.

No, Apple Cider Vinegar is not tasty... Day4

Have been taking ACV diluted with water (about 1~2 tea-spoon of ACV to a glass of water) for several days now, my first drink in the morning. It is perhaps a great detox agent; within half an hour after the drink, I've got to rush to toilet expelling my waste.. :P Other than that, I find myself more alert and easier to concentrate these few days. It is still too early to see the significant effects now.

By the way, I found this very interesting testimonial on ACV from http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/acvinegar.html
hehehe..

3/23/2006: Jennifer from Wichita, KS writes, "OMG!!!! I am usually the one that never believes "this stuff will work", but I have tried everything to boost my energy levels, to diminish my mood swings, to curb my appetite, and to clear my skin,...and when I say everything, I mean it, until now. ACV is the cure ALL! There is nothing that it doesn't fix, from my large appetite to the weeds growing in my yard. I would take stock in this stuff! I have not experienced a headache, (which I had daily for 12 years) in the last two weeks. I have lost 8 pounds in two weeks, My energy levels are through the roof, ( and with 4 kids it is important to keep those levels high:)) My skin and hair is fresher and silkier, without having to buy expensive shampoos and conditioners. My husband wont go near this stuff,...but I swear by it! I have my kids drinking it too, and I can tell a difference in their overall temperaments, their active levels are not extreme, they think clearer, nd for my youngest son who has Eczema, this is the only thing that has cleared him 100%, and we have put lots of money into soaps, lotions, and special diet needs for the last 3 years with him. Put a cup of ACV in his bath every night, towel him off and he is good to go, Before ACV , we would have to bathe him twice a day, once with soap, and the other just a water bath, and then lather him down with lotions and prescription creams. This has leveled him out and his skin is clear for the first time since birth. Now I don't have to bandage him up like a mummy when it gets really bad, because it simply is not there anymore!!!:) For ANYONE, with ANYTHING wrong with them,...this is the cure! I swear by ACV,...it has saved my family."

A shot of apple cider vinegar a day?

Got my latest blood test report back in Oct. and found my uric acid on the high side. Not good at all, acidic blood is bad, no wonder I have been feeling lethargic of late.
And by chance recently I read some article on apple cider vinegar (ACV).
It is said the ACV could help balance our blood system's pH level.
I am giving it a try.
And ACV has much more to offer. Check it out! http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/acvinegar.html
