Resources for PCOS, Specials for the week of May 16th and NSP’s new energy drinks

Marguerite — Mon, 17 May 2010 05:32:57 +0000

I have so many great natural resources for various health challenges. For women with PCOS you will see I have posted information on my blog about this condition in the past. (Do a search under PCOS and past blog posts will show.) One awesome network and support group for women with PCOS is:
http://www.pcoschallenge.com/ Sasha Ottey does a great job sharing helpful resources for women with PCOS.
PCOS – Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is becoming more prevalent in recent years. It’s thought that 4% to 10% of all women have the disorder. It has to do with Insulin resistance and women diagnosed with this condition usually have extra facial hair, weight gain, irregular cycles and infertility issues. The good news is natural programs are available for this condition. A healthy diet and exercise is critical. It is important to recognize this condition and get on a healthy program because it could lead to more serious health issues. Contact your herbalist for a natural program.

Knowledge is power – How cell phone use affects us

Marguerite — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:22:57 +0000

Some months back I heard a very revealing interview on the internet with a man who was sharing some alarming facts about cell phones and how they affect our health. He talked about the increase in brain tumors with cell phone use. I went on to read more about it and it all makes so much sense. This is something we all need to be award of, men, women and children. For children who are still growing and developing it is truly important to protect them against EMF (Electromagnetic Fields).

I am glad to learn of a cell chip has been developed to help protect us. A company named BIOPRO has created these chips. You can purchase them at this link:

The Benefits of a Fertility Massage

Marguerite — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 20:41:55 +0000

Photo by thiquinho

Fertility massage is a powerful natural fertility treatment that has been used for centuries all over the world. The great thing about fertility massage is it can be use in conjunction with traditional treatments; one case in point is the use of fertility massage with IVF. The use of fertility massage leading up to your IVF procedure may help to increase your success rate of implantation. An increased incidence of implantation may be possible because the use of fertility massage increases blood flow and reduces adhesions that can block pathways, there by increasing your chances of implantation/conception.
Fertility massage is a complex and advanced form of massage that includes not one, but several different massage techniques. Six to be exact, five different forms of massage therapy and the sixth is castor oil therapy. It is the combination of these techniques that makes this therapy so beneficial. As stated above massage can increase blood flow to the organs there by increasing the function of the organ and also delivering a much more gratifying sexual experience!! I don’t think any woman will complain about that! This increased blood flow is partially because of a release of the adhesions, this tissue is completely normal in the body, however, when the tissue becomes over grown for whatever reason, it can cause an obstruction of the fallopian tubes…or any other organ.
Not only could fertility massage with castor oil increase your chances of conception, but massage of the reproductive organs may lead to less painful menstrual cycle, and alleviate symptoms of cysts, fibroids, and endometriosis. Women with endometriosis should consider learning these wonderful techniques as massage has shown effective at reducing adhesions, thereby reducing pain, commonly associated with endometriosis. Traditionally endometriosis is treated with surgery, which ironically can cause more adhesions. Learning and implementing these techniques can save you a lot of time, money, and pain!
However, that being said let me stress the importance of performing these techniques correctly and only during the time frame in which they are meant to be applied. As stated earlier there are 5 different massage therapies included in fertility massage and you must be sure to correctly perform each one as not to waste your time and receive the best results. Also, fertility massage should only be performed BEFORE pregnancy and not during your period.
Another important thing to remember is like with any other treatment there may be some side effects, these include a slightly heavier period after your first few sessions, increased bowl movements, and soreness. This increased menstrual flow is actually a good sign this will show you what you helped your body get rid of, the heavier flow is caused by the old adhesions and old blood clots you help break free. Also, you may experience a healthier digestive system as the massage also has a positive effect on your intestines by breaking loose all that old fecal matter. And last but not least after your first session your abdomen may be slightly sore, this is quite normal after your fist organ massage, although you should not be swollen or bruised!

This massage is great for women dealing fibroids, endometriosis and cysts.

Contact your herbalist, Marguerite Wright to set up an appointment to learn how to rid fibroids naturally!

Hot Topics and Testimonies

Marguerite — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 00:05:05 +0000

I have been very busy lately, with job, working my own business, preparing my 3 young sons for back-to-school, supporting my daughter, a recent grad trying to adjust to the work force, attending meetings, teleconferences, donating time with my church and of course trying to fit some time in with the hubby. It can be very hectic sometimes and this is why it is important to support the nervous system with the proper vitamins and minerals needed such as B Complex or Nutri-calm by Nature Sunshine. I am also loving Levive by Ardyss International that has 5 power fruits in it, pomegrante, goji berry, acai berry, mangosteen fruit and noni juice.
I get calls all the time from people asking recommendations for various health issues and I am very grateful to share all the natural alternatives available. As Dr. Mercola posted recently on his blog, to help lower the expense of health care people need to really work on preventative health. It is the treatments of cancer and other surgeries and medications that cost so much. This is why I blog, to help make people more aware. I am on facebook, twitter, myspace and here trying to shout from my rooftop the blessings God has on this earth for healing of our bodies.

Just this week people have contacted me about gall bladder issues. I have blogged about preventative routes to take to avoid surgery and ways to help with digestion if you already had surgery on this blog (Google “motherknowsbest gallbladder and find the post). Also, people are dealing with shingles, alopecia and female issues such as fibroids, endometriosis and cysts. This is why I choose female issues to be one of my topics for September’s blogtalk radio show. Speaking of blogtalk, Coach Marla recently interviewed my friend and co-host of my show; Hondo Solomon. Hondo is a knowledgeable brother who can educate us on the political site of the food industry along with the spiritual side. You MUST check out his interview, very revealing. Coach Marla had many questions for him living as a 100% fruitarian.

We will discuss the issues many women at childbearing age are facing today that cause infertility. Disorders such as PCOS, Endometriosis, Fibroid tumors and cysts affect many women.

Testimonies:
I am so happy to expand the products available at www.motherknowsbest.net. I post some of the testimonies that people experience with herbal products. Using natural alternatives has helped many people and their pets! With one of my newest products added to my long list products; a natural juice with the 5 super fruits, Levive is helping many. I am hearing great testimonies I have to share:

•   One woman is relieved after her young 8-year-old daughter got great results in drinking the Levive everyday. Her daughter was experiencing terrible migraine headaches and all the doctors could tell her is to take Motrin to help deal with the pain. Her daughter’s migraines were so bad she would have to pull over while driving sometimes because of the pain and throwing up but she didn’t want to continue to give her daughter pain medicine everyday, so she began giving her the Levive juice and it has really helped.
•   Another woman has been drinking the juice along with wearing her body-reshaping garment and she dropped some pounds. She was so excited to get on the scale and see that her weight went down. With obesity being a big health issue in America these days, especially in the African American community products like these are truly needed. I will tell more soon on how the Body Magic helps people loose weight.
•   Another woman was drinking the Levive regularly and was pleased because she is a nurse who was exposed to a patient with the swine flu. After dealing with the patient they recommended she take the vaccine but she said “no” and just continued the juice. She never got sick, not even a runny nose or cold. This should encourage people in the medical field to get on a healthy diet and drink their Levive regularly.

You can order your Levive right here at www.motherknowsbest.net. Check with me to learn of the specials and discounts offered through Ardyss International. CALL ME: 708-575-3968

I am hearing so many more great testimonies that I am just going to continue to post them on my fan page on facebook and I encourage others to join and post their testimonies too.

Have a great weekend.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)– 1 in 10 women of childbearing age have this

Marguerite — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 05:00:40 +0000

The topic for Mom’s Healthy Radio Show on March 19th was Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS); condition 1 in 10 women of childbearing age are diagnosed with. Doctors are seeing more and more teens with this condition. Some of the symptoms include:
-    Irregular menstrual cycles
-    Insulin resistance
-    High level male hormones
-    Weight issues (Obesity)
-    Acne
-    Hirsutism – excessive and increased body hair

Doctors prescribe a medication called Metformin to help insulin level, because this condition can lead to Diabetes. Women are also put on birth control pills to regulate their menstrual cycles with artificial hormones. Women with PCOS deal with infertility problems also. Women with this condition need to take measure to deal with this condition before it goes in more serious health issues such as Diabetes and Heart Disease.

Some natural ways to become PCOS free is to take a closer look at diet. Eat a more natural diet, avoiding processed foods, such as white flour, white salt and white sugar. Try natural alternatives such as Xylitol. The new meal replacement shake, Shakeology is a protein drink that is great for people who are diabetic and pre-diabetic. Also consider a low glycemic diet and low, healthy carbs. The Eat Right for Your Blood Type diet is great. A natural progesterone cream like Pro-G-Yam has helped women balance their hormones naturally and regulate their cycles.

Other natural tips for good health and to help reverse PCOS is:
-    Avoid microwave ovens.
http://www.marksdailyapple.com/microwave-safety/
-    Consider natural birth control methods.
-    Avoid plastics that expose you to extra hormones.
-    Use natural cosmetics for your make-up and body.
-    Do a good detox program for the colon and liver.
http://www.squidoo.com/90daycoloncleanse
-    Do a Candida program for high yeast levels.
-    Include exercise in your regular schedule.
(Try Kathy Smith’s Project:YOU! Type 2™, made especially for people who are pre-diabetic and diabetic. Shop under my Beachbody link to purchase.)
-    Avoid foods with extra hormones, such as hormone injected meats and vegetables with pesticides.

For a special herbal program created just for you contact your herbalist, Marguerite Wright here on the CONTACT section of this website or call – 708-575-3968. I have natural programs for hair loss and infertility issues too.

I also recommend a wonderful support group for women dealing with PCOS – www.pcoschallenge.com. This group has great resources and support.
