Research proves that purity matters when it comes to biological activity.  Transfer Point Beta 1, 3D Glucan is the only Beta glucan immune supplement with a minimum purity of 83% Beta 1,3D glucan content.

According to several university studies published in peer-reviewed journals, Transfer Point Beta 1,3D Glucan has significantly outperformed all other immune supplements.

In addition to the published research in the Journal of Medicinal Foods, Open Glycoscience, and the Journal of the American Nutraceutical Association, Transfer Point's manufacturer supports onging biological activity comparisons through the University of Louisville to ensure Transfer Point continues to provide the most effective immune supplement available.

Of the over 50 brands of immune supplements tested, none have even come close to unleashing immune ability as much as Transfer Point's Beta 1,3D Glucan.

Strengthen Immune System Naturally

The immune system does an excellent job of protecting the body from various harmful microorganisms.  However there are times when the immune system may become weak and unable to perform its function properly.

The most important thing to remember is that the immune system requires balance and harmony to function properly.  This can be achieved through proper diet (high in whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables, and fiber), an intake of nutritional supplements and adaquate amounts of sleep.

A healthy immune system is the #1 key sytem to preventing sickness, viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungus & chemicals from damaging the body.

Listed below are 10 natural immune supplements that can be very effective in strengthening and enhancing your immune system function.

1.  Vitamin E - Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that triggers the production of cells that are able to find and destroy germs.  100 to 400 mg is the recommended daily requirement of vitamin E.

2.  Vitamin C - Vitamin C stimulates an increased production of white blood cells and antibodies.  It is also known to help in reducing the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and certain cancers.  200 mg of Vitamin C is recommended daily.

3.  Glutathione - This is an antioxidant that is known to make the immune cells such as the T cells and B cells live longer.  Therefore it can improve the production of antibodies.  About 500 mg of glutathione per day is recommended.

4.  CoQ10 - A powerful antioxidant, CoQ10, improves the ability of your immune system to destroy viruses.  200 mg of CoQ10 per day is recommended.

5.  Quercetin - This is a bioflavonoid that enhances the health and functioning of the cells.  Studies have shown that it helps in blocking the production of substances that cause inflammation.  500 mg is suggested for daily use.

6.  Garlic - Garlic has many beneficial health effects due to its release of the enzyme allinase.  It may be consumed in raw form or may be added to food while cooking.  A clove of garlic a day is recommended.  In the form of extract, it may be taken in the quantity of 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon/day.

7.  Curcumin - This is an age-old natural health remedy.  Potential treatment for cancer, cardiovascular diseases, alzheimer, diabetes, allergies, arthritis, asthma, acne and other inflammatory conditions.  www.curcuminresearch.org

8.  Beta Glucan - The carbohydrate component of the beta glucan fiber helps to stimulate the functioning of the NK cells.  These cells constitute the body's first line of defense against infection causing microorganisms.  www.bakersyeastbetaglucan.com

9.  Melatonin - The hormone, melatonin, is a natural immune supplement that helps regulate the manner in which the immune system communicates with the immune cells.  5-10 mg of melatonin may be taken at bedtime.

Hair Reveals Stress Levels

Analyzing hair closest to the scalp can reveal secrets about a person's health, New Study reveals hair can determine stress levels.

About ten years ago a colleague of Dr. Gideon Koren, Israel-Canadian researcher, discovered that cortisol (also known as hydrocortisone, a steroid hormone or gluccocorticoid), which is produced by the adrenal gland is present in human hair, knowing this, Koren decided to study the relationship between cortisol levels and levels of stress.

Since cortisol, a known biomarker for stress, can leech into the follicles from blood vessels in the scalp, as hair grows, corisol moves up the hair strands. Knowing that hair grows approximately .4 inches per month, measuring chronic stress overtime could be achieved. Depending on hair length, a doctor could then determine how much stress a person has been under for the preceding six or more months, and whether or not those stress levels have increased recently.

Normally scientists relied on measuring cortisol levels in the blood or urine. To date, it turns out that the cortisol in hair is the most reliable measure of the hormone to be found by scientists.

Koren concluded, "My laboratory has long been interested in the way drugs and alcohol are incorporated into hair. In 1988 I published the first paper showing that when a mother used cocaine in late-stage pregnancy, elements of the drug are incorporated into the baby's hair. We later determined that almost every drug taken by the mother can be found in the baby. This study led to significant breakthroughs in enabling physicians to determine what a baby has been exposed to." source

Antibiotic Therapy Risks

According to Dr. James Howenstine, a board certified specialist in internal medicine, he writes in his article entitled "ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF BREAST CANCER", that having a healthy gastrointestinal tract is a key component for good health. He goes on to say that he believes all antibiotics kill healthy intestinal bacteria and when these bacteria are killed, they are replaced in the intestines by more dangerous anaerobic bacteria, parasites, fungi, yeast and mycoplasma. In addition, our ability to kill cancer cells is probably being compromised by decreased production of intestinal immune cells, since more than 70% of our immune system cells reside in the intestine.

Dr. Howenstine further sites a study from the JAMA that revealed that women who have taken antibiotics are at an increased risk for developing breast cancer.

Dr. Howenstine also believes that long term use of antibiotics may be the primary reason why patients with Lyme Disease are now frequently being discovered to have lymphomas. Suppressed activity of killer lymphocytes related to decreased production of immune cells by damaged intestines whose health has been compromised by loss of healthy intestinal flora could be a key contributing factor to the lymphoma problem. source

HealthIsInReach has a couple of suggestions:
1. For increased immune system response, we suggest Beta-1,3D Glucan.
2. For help with bacteria, parasites, fungi and yeast overgrowth, we suggest the Advanced ERE.
3. For help with lymphomas and cancer, we suggest the FIR Dome and/or Original Sun Ancon Chi Machine.

FIR Dome, etc. Aids Lymphoma Patient

Below is a testimonial from a lymphoma patient who noticed greatly improved results after he began using the FIR Dome, Original Sun Ancon Chi Machine, Beta-1,3D Glucan, and Curcumin:

Due to my diagnosis of Lymphoma in April 2008, I decided to change my eating habits by eliminating chicken and red meats, reducing sugar and white flour along with foods made with those ingredients and eating more fruits and vegetables.

I thought I was making progress but was informed in Dec. 2008 after undergoing 3 PET Scans over the course of 8 months that my largest retroperitoneal lymph nodes were holding at 19mm and others at 14mm, I needed to do something more, but what!

In Feb. 2009, Nancy, from HealthIsInReach.com, suggested I include Beta-1,3D Glucan, Curcumin, the FIR Dome and the Original Sun Ancon Chi Machine to my regimen which at that time consisted of Vit. D3, Ester C, B Complex, Fish Oil, Resveratrol, Vit. E, Selenium, Sublingual B-12, CoQ10, and Zinc.

One thing to mention at this time, concerns my cholesterol, in June 2008 I had a cholesterol reading of 284, then in Jan. 2009 my cholesterol was 260, but things started happening after taking the Beta Glucan, Curcumin and using the FIR Dome and Chi Machine, in May 2009 my cholesterol was down to 161, then in Aug. 2009, my cholesterol came down even further to a reading of 138.

In Oct. 2009 I went through my 4th PET Scan, which revealed shrinkage to my Retroperitoneal lymph nodes. The 19mm lymph nodes diagnosed on Dec. 2008 came in at 10mm and my Dec. 2008 14mm lymph nodes were down to 7mm. I couldn't believe it, I honestly believe the products Nancy suggested has allowed me better PET Scan and cholesterol results.

I can't stop now though, I know I just have to keep plugging away with my daily regimen and who knows, my cancer may be gone in no time, a prayer or two on my behalf wouldn't hurt and would be much appreciated as well. -J.M. source
