Genewize Supplements

I want to share with you information regarding a supplement I have been taking for almost 1 year. They are Genewize Supplements, and they are based on your DNA. I am definately not one of those people who will try anything regarding my health or pop a pill to feel better. I am a person who listens and researches herbs and vitamins in order to move myself to optimum health. I have 2 chronic health issues-Epstein Barr Virus and Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome-one plays off the other. At times in the past, I have been in bed for weeks and not been able to take care of myself. 

The good news is that someone I highly respect and trust introduced me to Genewize Supplements and I observed what they did for her before I even considered ordering them. Well, long story short, I have been taking them and not only have I stopped taking numerous herbs, but I have saved alot of money each month. I now take Genewize and a couple of glandulars on a daily basis. These supplements have completely turned my health and wellbeing around for the positive, not to mention made my hair grow back and made my skin and nails strong and clear! I have continued to relapse with EBV and CFIDS, but not to the point that I am bedridden-most of the time my friends and family don't even notice I am not at my best when it hits! 

I could get really scientific with the information regarding the Supplements, like how they test 12 SNP's (single nucleotide polymorphisms), or that most of the herbs and vitamins are made from organic whole foods, or that Genewize is backed by 17 years of DNA research, etc...but I am not-all I am going to say is that it is simple-send in the DNA test swabs they send you in the mail and wait for the supplements and see what happens! They test everything from Bone Density to how your body is capable of detoxing foreign materials to inflammation-12 different aspects of your genetic code. 

My results were quite interesting since they explained what was going on with my health and the fact that my issues were inhereted  from both parents. Inflammation/AutoImmune and  my body's inability to fight off free radicals/detox. Both my parents had health problems due to those as well. I had my sister tested and she is taking the supplements to support her health issues that she inherited from our parents also. 

The most exciting aspect of these supplements, besides the fact that they are personalized, is that they can support your body to maintain optimum health as they target any weaknesses AND they can prevent any further damage done to the system. Of course, it is recommended that regular medication be taken until it is no longer medically necessary, which for me was 6 months-my last blood test shocked the doctor due to my improvement! If you would like details, details, details contact me and I can set you up with information or just get you started on your supplements!

Meridians 10-12

And now for the next 3  Meridians. Just a reminder that imbalances in the Meridian system may cause pain, numbness, heat or cold issues and illness. This can be the result of an injury along the Meridian line, overuse of a limb or muscles along the Meridian line, or an organ  injury or weakness  along the Meridian line. Notice how the area of the Meridian Lines are described-can you see a relation between a nagging pain and a recurring illness you may be having? This can be the result of the Meridians being blocked for a time-Shiatsu or acupressure can assist in the balancing of the energies there. 
The 3 Meridians I will discuss now are the Triple Heater, Gallbladder and Liver.  The Triple Heater runs from the outside corner of the eyebrow to the fourth finger.  A block or imbalance may cause ear problems, sore throat, abdominal distension, oedema, and swelling of the cheek.  The illnesses associated with that Meridian are diseases of the thyroid and adrenal glands, alternating chills and fevers, deafness and a curled tongue. There may also be pain running along the entire Meridian.
The Gallbladder Meridian runs from the outside corner of the eye to the fourth toe. A block or imbalance may cause gallbladder problems, ear diseases, migraine, hip problems and dizziness. The illnesses associated with that Meridian are alternating chills and fevers, deafness, inability to move eyes from side to side, pain in all the joints along the Meridian, headaches and painful breasts.. 
The Liver Meridian runs from the big toe to the front of the chest.   A block or imbalance may cause liver problems, vomiting, hernia, urination problems, pain in the lower abdomen and pain along the Meridian line. The illnesses associated with that Meridian are liver disease, headache, cramping and joint pain along the Meridian.. These are 10-12 of the 12 Meridians. Please remember that this is only 1 technique of looking at the body system to work with illness and imbalance. Your practitioner cannot diagnose or cure you, they can only work with your body in order to create a healing environment so you can be at optimal health.
