Harvard Health Publication Slams Vitamins.

Mardy's Note on Feb 1, 2011: This exchange from late January 2011 between two different providers of highly regarded nutritional supplements distributed via the multilevel marketing model, if read through to my Comment about goals for Lumigrate about educating the public is likely an extremely powerful educational piece directly and indirectly about health care today, marketing models, information distribution, as well as the topic 'at hand', nutrition and supplementation thereof.  read more »

There is a Civil War in the US Today Related to Medicine

Every day I record several popular shows which I think carry good content and know are popular with the public, particularly in the US, and pick and chose which ones require or deserve time spent each day.  Today I really didn't have time, but I MADE TIME to watch Dr Oz because he had Dr Joseph Mercola on for a SECOND time.  I'd watched (and likely covered here at Lumigrate.com) the first time, and also have spoken with an old friend who was in a weeklong course about Internet marketing with him and find him really fascinating.    read more »

Bear Grylls Video: Bridging the Gap

 As many probably have already heard, TV adventurer Bear Grylls (Man VS Wild) has entered into a promotional partnership with Juice Plus+. 

 

He's been taking Juice Plus+ since he was a teenager. He even unfurled  a Juice PLUS flag on the top of Everest along with his British flag.

 

Check out what he has to say at JuicePlus.com/YouTube. (link: www.youtube.com/user/OfficialJuicePlus)  read more »

Evaluating Your Multivitamin Supplement

The importance of a well-balanced diet high in fruits and vegetables is basic for good health, and we all know that we should be including at least five daily servings of each.  However, even when we take care in eating the most nutritious locally grown, organic foods, research has shown that today's diet is insufficient to avoid many chronic degenerative diseases.  (JAMA, June 19, 2002)  The nutrient-deficient soils of today just do not provide us with the quality nutrition we need in order to maintain o  read more »

People Ask All the Time What I Take

Since the time the website was being constructed, I have wanted to encourage people to check out a Colorado company which really helped me when I found out about them when I moved to Denver in the mid 1990s.  At that time they hadn't expanded to the city I lived in before that time so I wasn't getting the best type of supplement despite having done my research (through books and newsletter subscriptions related to what back in those days was called 'chronic Epstein-Barr virus' which today is 'chronic fatigue syndrome'.  So there's a link from the 'Products page to their website' J  read more »

Answered Prayers

Mardy has suggested that I post here several times, but life has been keeping me busy. 7 years ago when I found the answers I had been praying for, I was elated and felt called to pay it forward so I became a wellness consultant (and have expanded that to include certififed weight loss coach.) When you manage to recover from fibro, chronic fatigue, and depression without meds, it gives you a passion to share it with others. Over the years I have helped many people, but finances always seem to get in the way.  read more »

If You Are What You Eat -- Would You Be Healthy?

Mardy Ross's picture

I asked the questions "If you are what you eat, what would you be?" and "what would you ideally be" in order to make people think about if they're eating the way they want to be.  As information goes forward, there seems to be an impossible amount to keep up with about food.  I feel proud that I finally remember which oils are the ones that are recommended for cooking.  Part of having a compromised memory as I do is that I maybe see how to simplify things for people.  However, to do that myself is cumbersome and in some regards 'over my head'.  <  read more »

How Deirdre and Lumigrate came to be ....

I am going to speak on behalf of the Lumigrate Forum community.  In the first 9 months of the website, the forum area about fibromyalgia has truly been one of the most impressive and pride-full things I've ever experienced.  I don't have children but I know how parents have such a sense of pride when they see their kids doing something that has nothing more to do with the parent than they created the person.  There are amazing, wise people -- mostly women -- who wrote in that area so far.  And MUCH of what we were writing about had aspects to it that had to do with nutri  read more »
