ctober holds a special place in my heart for a number of reasons. In addition to my birthday, this month marks the six year anniversary of my first visit to Hippocrates Health Institute. It was during that initial visit that my passion for all HHI does to educate people around the world, with its genuinely attainable message of hope for a healthier, happier future, ignited. This issue is packed with stories that will enlighten you to live well on a deeply meaningful level. What may come as a shock to some is that wellness is not all about the physical body but about the body as a whole; mind, body and spirit. Should any of these three areas be lacking, we simply do not thrive. Optimum living occurs once balance within the entire person is achieved. You’ll read about the powerful role of forgiveness as this wonderful issue is packed with mentally and spiritually provoking articles to teach us to operate out of a place of love and acceptance rather than fear and rejection. The thought provoking article “Sorry Isn’t Enough” explains the valuable difference between being sorry and forgiveness. In “The Psychology of Healing” we learn how our ability to sort through life experiences, forgive, and let go, greatly influences our ability to heal. As usual, there’s plenty of exciting activities going on at HHI this fall. Be sure to say hello when you come out for a day of fun at the 11th Annual Rawfest, “Cirque du Raw!” For a Thanksgiving you’ll never forget, reserve your seat at the table of our 30th Annual Vegan Thanksgiving! Until then… happy reading and, by all means, happy October!

orgiveness Most of us carry boulders in our hearts and minds representing unresolved issues. As time passes, we learn to endure these obstacles by lowering the bar for our own expectations and dreams. Imagine how much energy and discord these blockages render throughout life. Unfortunately, learning to adapt to this state often dwindles our ability to know that they are present. We each process events, encounters and situations in our own unique way. For one, being exposed to a shocking amount of stress does not dent their optimism. For another, a feather landing in the wrong place may activate is not a right or wrong or good or bad in this, there is just on problem.� Forgiveness is one of the most powerful tools that we possess. It frees us from the burden of blemished memories and allows our heart and soul to soar into the stratosphere of compassion. This progressive act moves the darkest thoughts and brings light to the blind parts of self. All healing, for all concerns, begins with forgiveness. First, we should forgive ourselves for harboring such nonsensical rhetorical gibberish. Next, if we perceive that somebody did us wrong, we must HEALTH elevate ourselves to truly see that they did not mean harm; it was all they were capable of. IN TES RA Freeing the boundary between ourselves and others illuminates the magnificence of contact and figuratively plugs us in to the rhythmic universe of goodness. Each day, we should direct our focus on processing and releasing all sadness. Before sleep at night, review any concerns or gnawing negative memories you have from the day. Commit to RA Y letting go or working out the problem before moving into the ethereal world of conY TIN G SIXT scious sleep. There is no doubt that you will enhance your energy, expand your joy and benefit from a sound rest. On the other hand, when we allow this emotional and mental debris to mount into a monster that seems untenable, we are smothered below the weight of sadness. Just think, with one quick change of mind, you can open up the watershed and allow the contaminating hurts to leave you. Each and every person we have been fortunate enough to observe here at HHI brought about their own recovery as they taught us forgiveness is the most basic and significant way. Resolving issues that have no place in a healthy person is the truly magnificent part of healing. Some of you struggle since childhood because you were taught not to let go and express yourself. It is never too late! And like a bird flying off from the highest peak, you will gain a new vista of a life of strength, stability and possibilities. Do not be fearful to let go of your sadness as letting go will allow your true persona to rise. Your entire body and mind is exhausted from holding this weight, drop it and allow it to be a memory not an enemy. As you gracefully move with authenticity in the direction of true liberation, the process of release and forgiveness will become second nature. This, we know, can become part of your repertoire of well-being. This, we know, is the most significant aspect in recovery and this, you will learn best friend you have ever found.

From CancertoLife |
A
B Y MARIA INES CABRAL
t the beginning of 2010, I was diagnosed with a very aggressive breast cancer (HER2+) which I quickly proceeded to address through surgery, chemo and radiation. My doctor informed me that 75 percent of patients with my particular type of cancer have a repeating occurrence within the first three years. I politely and decidedly told my doctor that reoccurrence was not going to happen with me. In trying to equip myself to win my battle with cancer, before ever even visiting Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI), I purchased all of Brian and Anna Maria Clement’s books as well as the series of 12 DVDs of informative classes. I earnestly invested myself in learning a new way to be well as I studied and incorporated their wise and healthful practices into my life. Immediately following my traditional cancer treatment protocol, I booked a flight for my first visit to HHI. That initial visit changed my life completely! Prior to my devastating cancer diagnosis, I hadn’t exactly been what one would describe as a “healthy” person since I have rather unfortunate genetics regarding my heart and circulation. My parents each died of heart disease and I’ve lost two sisters in their early forties due to heart disease. My brother had heart surgery at the age of 42 and ten years ago my cardiologist told me that I was probably going to have a heart attack within the next five years. As my cardiologist witnesses my ever improving heart and circulation he continues to be surprised at how my style of life has had such an incredibly positive impact on my overall wellness! The Hippocrates Lifestyle™ has tremendously improved my immune system. I have not only reversed the aggressive cancer and kept reoccurrence at bay, but I’ve also effectively addressed my troubled heart and circulation. After returning to HHI yearly since my first visit and receiving incomparable help from Brian, Anna Maria and Tom Fisher, I came to
|
the conclusion that I needed to start spreading this healthy lifestyle message in effort to help others, especially those with cancer. Last year, I became a Hippocrates Health Educator and, through that experience, created a project for patients with cancer. Currently, I’m writing my first book in a series, From Cancer to Life: A Deep Journey Through Spirituality and Healing, where I share my experience beginning from when I found out I was sick all the way through to the positive impact that HHI has had on my life. This first book will be sold on Amazon beginning in December 2016! The next book from this series called, From Cancer to Life, will come out soon. The second book will be a guide, not only for people with cancer, but for all those who want to regain or improve their wellness through living a healthy lifestyle.

Now, Hippocrates LifeForce: Superior Health and Longevity is my go-to reference for creating the changes I want to see in my life as it relates to my health and longevity. It’s a comprehensive guide to creating and maintaining a healthy and balanced life.

I was 20 years into my 30-year quest for knowledge before I began to realize the connection between food, toxins, consciousness and what I like to call

“designer diseases” such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and other chronic illnesses. LifeForce put everything in perspective for me by outlining practices that have taught hundreds of thousands of people how to harness the power of self-healing. Author Brian Clement makes the case for good health being about happiness and self-empowerment. He lays the foundation for your journey by debunking the myths associated with dieting and food. He establishes a little known truth that healing and good health begin with our belief system and gives the reader the tools and research to support what can be achieved by transforming your lifestyle. The book also provides

inspiring testimonies from many who used these tools to dramatically change their lives and health. It’s loaded with scientific studies that support the claim of “a natural healing program for everyone.” Disturbing trends that have led to a health care crisis and escalated into the ever increasing cost of health care are factually addressed. Clement places the solution in the reader’s hands and gives him/her the tools to make lasting change happen. When you read LifeForce, you will learn how to transition to eating raw living foods at home, while dining out and traveling as
well as strategies for creating the support system you need to stay on track. There’s detailed information on therapeutic juicing and sprouting; the role of vitamins, minerals, and phyto-chemicals and the use of medicinal herbs, as well as recipe favorites from the Hippocrates Health Institute kitchen. If you are determined to succeed in your quest for self-healing, and I sure hope that you are, then this book can be an integral part of your mindful practice of integrating each valuable lesson, one empowered step at a time.

ll too often we use the word “sorry” to diffuse the immediate occurrence. Unfortunately, most of the time that we utter this word it is disingenuous, becoming systematically robotic. When somebody pushes back, we purge with the “s” word. What this achieves is nothing good and only adds fuel to the deeply suppressed, unconquered, issues from the past. These hostile memories raise their ugly head on an on-going basis until we are ready and willing to dismiss them by genuinely acknowledging their teaching. All of us, myself included, often brush things aside rather than taking the time to address them straight on. Time and again we recycle this pattern and, quite often, refuse to resolve it. This is not a cyclical process that is there to annoy you, but a brilliant teaching begging you to learn. Respecting the possibilities that this lesson will bring by embracing the event, either comfortably or uncomfortably, certainly enriches your conscious reserves, fueling a smoother future. Forgiveness is the grown-up in the room that requires thought and demands respect. Being

and abandonment from a brother who looked up to him. Dead silence stilled the room; tears came to his eyes and he said “I’m also sad and sick.” Proposing that we have a meeting together, he let go and said he would love it. Together, they went through the Hippocrates, Life Transformation Program and, on a daily basis, it was clear to see that their unwarranted estrangement had literally rendered both men emotionally and physically ill. People tend to linger in the memories of the past since they fear the future. Their reduced perception is due to the closing of their hearts via perceived burdens. All too often they try to resolve these issues with conventional psychiatry or medicine. At best, this veils the issue driving it deeper into their core. We are creatures of need and our greatest need is to love and to be loved. Deflecting from this drive abolishes the strength and integrity of truth. Forceful expression of sincere forgiveness is our greatest ally in life’s abundance. Do not blame others for your creations; create perpetual power by switching on your release valve. Tai chi was born as
wood. Soon, I learned how to use an axe and a manual saw and it often took all of my might to heat my abode. One day, as I was talking with a local telling how I had to saw wood for hours each day, he asked if I had ever used a chainsaw. Fibbing, I said, “Yes!” He handed me one and off I went. What a revelation I had the following day when it only took one hour, rather than four, to knock down the old, dead trees. Two weeks later, I expressed how happy I was for his generosity and concern and shared that I had cut my work down by three quarters. He suggested that I must have enough wood for all the homes in this valley and I replied, no, just enough for mine! He asked how I was using the saw and when I explained, he asked if I knew that you need to sharpen the blade and put oil on the saw? Seemingly, he saw right through me and realized this chainsaw was a new experience for me. My perception was I had gone from four hours to one hour which was a great improvement and far less laborious. If I had only been open to ask him how to use the chainsaw, my hour of work could have been achieved in only 5 minutes.
THE ULTIMATE SHIELD IS TO SUCCUMB TO THE HUMBLENESS OF FORGIVENESS.
“
sorry is the bully that is unwilling to recognize it has created the problem. Do we want to live in the fog or the brilliant sunlight? Relevant to this is the fact that forgiving is one of the most genuine gifts you can share with someone. Years ago, I received a call from a man who spoke about his younger brother that he had not talked to in 10 years. Inquiring why there was this discourse, he shared that when the brothers had been working together, the younger brother had cheated him one day, then he abruptly said, “But I love him and want to help him because he is now sick!” I asked if his brother knew that he cared so much and he said, “No, I do not want to talk to him.” Changing the conversation, I finally came around to proposing that maybe his illness stemmed from a broken heart
a martial art for wars of yonder years. Until recently, soldiers would adorn themselves with heavy metal armor and systematically, in a line, rapidly run toward their foes in an open field. Inevitably, the weight of this protection combined with the laborious effort the soldiers underwent often caused them to fall. The Tai chi warriors realized that if they moved rapidly out of the way of these soldiers that they would not have physical contact and the warrior would not only fall, but eventually, become exhausted and give up. This little story may help you in understanding why letting go is much more powerful than fighting. The ultimate shield is to succumb to the humbleness of forgiveness.

I’ll always remember him looking at me, smiling and saying, “I forgive you for fibbing, but you’ll have to forgive yourself for wanting to do more work than you should have!” Needless to say, once I let go, I was able, willing and ready to learn. When pretending to be something that you are not, it always prevents you from being the best you. Forgiveness is not only something that has to do with your emotional state, this genuine act of compassion can reduce body burdens, spiritual anchors and unhappy lives. The burning, heartfelt passion of release is the magnificent bell that rings diminishing emptiness. When one lets go, they can be filled. When one is filled, they become whole. When one is whole they become happy and when you’re happy, you are living the way you were meant to live. Forgiveness

HUMAN GUT BIOME RESTORATION AND REGENERATION WITH GROUNDBREAKING WHOLE FOOD, PLANT-BASED NUTRACEUTICALLY ENHANCED SUPPLEMENTATION
T
hrough our Life Transformation Program (LTP), Hippocrates has been a pioneer in Holistic Lifestyles, high level wellness, rejuvenation and self-empowerment. We are continuously seeking to be the best in the industry. Our LifeGiveTM supplements are all whole food based, enzymatically active and non-GMO. Over the years we have had the benefit of Dr. Edward Howell’s mentee, Viktoras Kulvinskas, guiding us in enzymology and enzyme product development. Based on the ongoing clinical experience at HHI and the joint efforts of Anne Marie and Brian Clement and Viktoras Kulvinskas, we have made several important discoveries which we are now ready to share with you. Each breakthrough has led to the significant upgrading of several of our essential supplements.
THE FIRST of the three new and improved LifeGiveTM products is the all important Internal CleanseTM. Dr. J. H. Tilden, MD, who was one of the early pioneers in the healing arts, famously stated, “All diseases are caused by toxemia and malnutrition.” No doubt, you are familiar with the old saying, “Cleanliness is next to godliness.” That said, addressing one’s internal toxemia is a top priority, hence our new improved Internal CleanseTM helps to restore the GI tract by overcoming the major challenges of slow peristaltic action (a.k.a. constipation), burning sensations, acid reflux, distention, bloating , etc. This product has combined the impact of the non-habit forming herbal derived alkaloids (which lead to an immediate decrease in the intestinal transit time) with a wide range of extremely alkalizing super foods and herbs that results in the gradual, long term re-alkalization of the muscle tissue of the GI tract thus allowing one to return to normal bowel activity. The formula is enhanced by the addition of certain plant fibers and strategic pre-biotics, which significantly increase the proliferation of probiotic bacteria in the gut. In a healthy individual, over 60% of fecal matter is composed of these healthy gut microbial cultures. Proper usage of Internal Cleanse TM will lead to long term cleansing and detoxification, and, when used in conjunction with MeltAway PlusTM, it accelerates fat burning and weight loss.

The Gut Factor
THE SECOND newly improved LifeGiveTM product is the HHI-ZYME Plus Digestive AidTM. The importance of enzymes has been highlighted in many professional journals and books and it is now fully understood how enzymes are intimately involved with not only the digestive and immune systems but all metabolic functions of the body. The book Food Enzymes for Health and Longevity showed documented studies indicating that nearly every degenerative disease, including aging, is preceded by digestive disorders and enzyme deficiencies. Humans are designed to live on an enzyme-rich diet. The disparity between our divinely intended fare and our actual food choices leads to many unintended and, over time, grave consequences. For example, the immediate effect of consuming a cooked meal, which is devoid of all enzymes, is called post-meal leukocytosis. This is a condition where your white blood cell count shoots way up, as though the immune system has identified an infection. Until your body has borrowed enough enzymes from the metabolic enzyme pool to support adequate digestion, this inflammatory condition continues. Eventually, within a few hours after the meal being digested, the white blood cell count goes back to normal. In sharp contrast, cooked meals when accompanied by proper enzyme supplementation do not lead to the development of post-meal leukocytosis. Continued enzyme borrowing leads to many undesirable outcomes, including digestive insufficiency, decreased immune function, accumulation of toxins and premature aging, not to mention all manners of degenerative diseases. With stakes this high we cannot overemphasize the importance of taking digestive enzymes with every meal. As a consequence, we have upgraded the HHI-ZYME PLUSTM to be 3 to 4 times stronger in terms of the individual enzyme potencies, and we have integrated AstraZyme™, which many consider to be the single most important breakthrough in enzymology in the last 50 years. AstraZyme™ is the proprietary combination of particular high potency proteolytic enzymes, full 20

spectrum minerals and AstraGin™. AstraGin™ is the patented nutraceutical developed over the past dozen years at the cost of more than $10M in research. AstraGin™ is essentially a concentrated form of two of the most important herbs (Astragalus membranaceous and Panax notoginseng) found in the 5000+ year old body of ethnobotanical knowledge known as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In essence, AstraGin™ has been proven in more than a dozen in vitro studies and several in vivo studies to enhance the ABSORPTION of certain amino acids by as much as 66% and certain vitamins by up to 50% as well as many other important phytochemical components by similarly significant percentages. Basically AstraGin™ is the world’s premier botanical based nutrient absorption enhancer. Furthermore, AstraGin™ was demonstrated to be able to affect what is known as the “re-epithelialization of the intestinal cell wall.” This is a fancy way of saying that it is able to restore a damaged intestinal wall. This is crucial in light of the prevalence of the myriad forms of compromised intestinal cell wall integrity and function ranging from the epidemic rates of excessive intestinal permeability (e.g. “Leaky Gut Syndrome”) all the way up to and including full blown Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The paramount importance of the human gut-biome has gained tremendous scientific validation while also becoming a mainstream topic of discussion. Hippocrates famously said, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food,” and certainly here at HHI we have been well aware of this since our inception. Nowadays it is common to hear on TV commercials and even in casual conversations that as much as 70% of the immune system resides in the human gut. Right behind that awareness is the growing recognition that many neurotransmitters are actually created in the gut and function within the human gut-biome which is often referred to as, “a second brain.” Furthermore, many psychiatrist have had great success in actually replacing pharmaceutical mood enhancing psychotropic drugs with probiotics and even fermented foods. By the way, our newly reformulated line of InstinctTM probiotics was developed with all of this in mind. Follow your gut-instinct and give them a try: You will be glad, even elated, that you did. Another lesser known fact about nutrient absorption, especially regarding amino acids, is the substantial percentage of these important building blocks that are required on a daily basis to continuously rebuild the tissue of the GI tract. By some accounts, that percentage is up to or even greater than 50% of an

individual’s total protein intake. This biological imperative places even more importance on the digestion and especially the absorption function in light of this daily requirement just to meet normal maintenance needs of one’s digestive and eliminative apparatus. To restate this, in summary and in more simple terms, the new and improved HHI-ZYME PLUSTM is designed to enhance both digestion (i.e., the breakdown of foods and the bioavailability of its nutritional components) and, equally as important, the actual ABSORPTION of those nutrients. This enhanced absorption is the direct effect of the inclusion of AstraZyme™/ AstraGin™ in the formula. HHI spared no expense in developing this most advanced digestive aid and absorption enhancer.
THE THIRD new and improved LifeGiveTM TM
product is MeltAway PLUS . This already outstanding, tremendously popular and efficacious original MeltAway formula, combines extremely high concentrations of protease, amylase and lipase enzymes with a strategic team of herbal extract superstars too comprehensive to detail in this article. Suffice it to say, it was no easy task to improve the original MeltAway formula … and then along came InnoSlim,™ a profound and patented nutraceutical compound. Extensive research on InnoSlim™ (16 in vitro studies and 2 in vivo studies) has shown it to regulate glucose, fat cell and muscle cell metabolism, and to have positive effects in reducing glucose absorption and in increasing fat cell combustion and muscle cell glycogen synthesis. InnoSlim™ actually increases the secretion of adiponectin which is the hormone involved in the burning of brown fat (a.k.a. “bad fat … belly & butt fat”) … you get the picture. In fact, since a picture is worth 1000 words, and this article has nearly reached its designated word limit, it might be best to finish with an illustration that is based on the aforementioned compendium of scientific and clinical research. Take a look at the illustration that follows. The addition of InnoSlim™ to the original MeltAwayTM makes MeltAway PlusTM the most advanced naturally derived, evidence-based “fat burner” imaginable.

very October we raise awareness for breast cancer. We honor the survivors, encourage the fighters and mourn those that have lost the battle. This is the month of pink banners and ribbons, but there is nothing pink and pretty about this disease that tears apart families and communities. The sad reality is that breast cancer rates are rising. In order to effectively raise awareness, we all need to know the facts and the projected numbers for 2016. Current data from the National Cancer Institute Surveillance and Epidemiology Program:
breast cancer are expected to be diag nosed in men in 2016. A man’s lifetime risk of breast cancer is about 1 in 1,000. This year, about 40,450 women in

The most significant risk factors for breast cancer are gender (being a woman) and age (growing older).
The rates of breast cancers continue to rise. The traditional medical model has spent millions on early detection, and advanced treatment options. Attempts at effective and real prevention strategies simply do not exist in our western model of disease treatment. I think of all the women that run for genetic testing when we can see here that only 5 to 10 percent of breast cancers are genetically handed down to us. The majority of breast cancers occur due to genetic mutations that happen as a result of the aging process and environmental toxic burdens, rather than inherited mutations.
THE BOTTOM LINE is that we need to address all of the factors that contribute to the formation of hormonally based cancer in women (and men). A few steps that anyone can implement almost immediately for themselves and their families: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

This mouth-watering recipe, created by Ken Blue, Executive Chef at Hippocrates Health Institute, was inspired by a traditional Thai noodle dish that calls for peanuts. Here, deliciously nutritious raw organic almond butter serves as a substitute for the problematic peanuts: a much healthier and flavorful option with no harmful aflatoxins.
• Combine the noodle ingredients in a large bowl. • Using a blender, add all sauce ingredients except the raw organic almond butter. • Gradually incorporate the almond butter to the sauce ingredients while blending on a low setting. • Add the sauce to the vegetables and kelp noodles and toss. Garnish with colorful fresh veggies and season with Bragg’s or Nama Shoya, to taste.
food smart One tablespoon of almond butter contains as much protein as you get from the same quantity of meat. It is also an excellent source of fiber, which helps digestion and nourishes tissues. Almonds are known to reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) and control blood pressure. Scallions are plentiful in B-complex vitamins as well as some essential minerals such as copper, iron, manganese and calcium.
Scallions are one of the richest sources of vitamin K. 100 grams of fresh greens provide 207 g or about 172% of daily recommended intake of this vitamin. Scallions are known by many names, including spring onion, green onion and green bunching onion. You can get more omega-3 fatty acids, essential for maintaining metabolic and heart health, from almond butter than from peanut butter.
Forgiveness
Being a leafy-green, scallions naturally carry more plant-derived antioxidants and dietary fiber than their fellow bulb (allium) members such as onions and shallots. 100g fresh spring onions provide 2.6g or 7% of daily-recommended levels of fiber.

rom 1900 to around 1960, the average life expectancy in the USA rose from about 50 years of age to 70. Since 1960, in economically advanced nations, the average life expectancy rose to nearly 80. While that rise has been greatly impacted by a certain “militancy� of modern medicine, namely its effective killing and avoidance of infections, perhaps surprising to much of the population, it has not necessarily been effective in treating chronic illnesses. You see, rising life expectancy statistics are not necessarily related to the best treatment of chronic illnesses. For example, in the twentieth century, the US infant mortality rate dropped by nearly 80 percent. But when we average in the loss of a life at its inception with the loss of a senior life, this throws off the overall calculation because at least two years of our life expectancy increase has been due to saving lives at or near birth. Additional factors influencing longevity also have little to do with how well we treat adult chronic illnesses, such as: fewer car accidents, safer work places, and reduction of cigarette smoking. A study published by Angus Deaton, a 2015 Nobel Prize laureate, indicates that overall mortality, for at least the past decade and a half, has actually been increasing for middle-aged white Americans. Rising alcohol and drug abuse, including prescription opioids, and suicide account for a significant portion of that decadeand-a-half increase. But when Americans Forgiveness Myths| |HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG| |2 5 2
B adulterate their food supply with GMOs and foods grown with chemical synthetics, one has to consider what the chronic illness impact might be? Could a weaker health constitution lead to more Americans turning to drugs, legal and illegal, as well as alcohol and suicide? At the same time, the levels of chronic illnesses have been rising. Multiple studies show that at least half of American adults suffer from a chronic illness. Furthermore, incidences of chronic illness have been increasing in segments of the population through diabetes, heart disease, cancer, arthritis, asthma and so on. For example: in a single generation, cancer rates increased 22 percent for white men and 56 percent for white women. If we judge the level of chronic illness by how many adult Americans regularly take prescription drugs, the count of those who are chronically ill jumps to 60 percent. It rises even higher if we adopt a more stringent definition of hypertension, inclusive of individuals suffering from pre-hypertension, meaning those with blood pressure readings between 120/80 and 139/89. A stunning 60 percent of the US adult population is at least
hypertensive. When we add those who are chronically ill in other ways to the 60 percent of hypertensive-ill Americans, the total figure rises to an average of two-thirds to three-quarters of all US adults! Seniors 65 and over show an astounding 90 percent occurrence of being chronically ill. These alarming numbers reflect the monumental and rarely admitted, ineffectiveness of using chemical drugs, surgery and radiation to treat us over our extended lives. The existence of such an abysmal situation was reinforced in my mind when partaking in a 15K road race, the Utica Boilermaker - one of the largest such races in the US with more than 11,000 runners. It offered a sufficient gauge, if indirectly, of our overall health predicament. For example, only about one percent of the participants were 65 or older. While younger runners saw virtually no drop off between each successive 5-year age category, those aged 60-64 saw a 50 percent drop. For example, male runners between the ages of 55-59, numbered 500. Those 60-64 plummeted to 275 and further nosedived to 127 for the next age category of runners between the ages of 65-69. There

oday, farms produce twenty percent more food than the entire global population of 7.5 billion people require. In countries with the highest standard of living, like the United States, forty percent of food is wasted by non-consumption while more people than ever are overweight, obese and morbidly obese. Our children suffer from this emerging crisis more than we do. Frightening global trends reveal that people are eating emotionally, sparked by their stressful lifestyle. High-speed living combined with fast-food choices are a lethal combination for both individual and societal health. When taken to the extreme, disorders like anorexia and bulimia arise. Eighty-five percent of the people suffering these maladies (5 million in the US alone) endured some form of psychological concern during childhood with the most common being anxiety, social phobia and post-traumatic stress. Internationally, the ratio is a shocking five women to one male suffering from these acute disorders. The future wellness of society looks grim due to the multinational food companies’ greed and lack of compassion. These ruthless companies have poured chemically latent genetically modified, high-sugar, low-nutrition and synthetic, opiate enriched products into the marketplace. There are a plethora of reasons for weight gain. Eating foods with little nutrients that are high in fat and sugar, a lack of exercise, stress and the absence of healthy fats, all combine to put on pounds. Stress factors such as the American workaholic culture— where fifty-five percent of

Our reptilian brain (first evolving 500 million years ago) primarily works in encouraging reproduction fight or flight response and, or complete shutdown, producing individuals in our high-speed societies that perpetually run their bodies under high intensity stress. This single factor is a major increase in weight gain. Over-and under-eating, fastfood consumption and absence of movement and exercise, pile up added unhealthy weight. In the U.K, weight problems were investigated, researched and published in the British Journal of Medicine, exposing that the main culprit is genetically modified fructose consumption contained in junk foods, especially soda. In the United States more than 1/3 of the adult population is obese (more than 5% morbidly). In the UK, more than ¼ of the adults is obese (2% morbidly). Children that are obese in both nations border around 20%. This data comes from the World Obesity Organization. Under normal conditions, when an infant is born their first and foremost food is mother’s milk. Their small bodies are, in great part, brown fat, which is supported and nurtured by the cholesterol from the mother. This extraordinary food contains an enzyme that helps to break down and utilize this cholesterol in the process of growth, energy and brain development.

These fatty acids are required for weight management. Vegetables oils that have been hydrogenated, so that oils would not spoil and become rancid, destroy essential fatty acids and increase cholesterol. Animal meat consumption, including fish, generally contain 20x less omega 3 than algae and land based plants. You should be receiving these essential nutrients from them. Mistakenly, fish has been falsely raised to a place of prominence: Fish like other animal based foods contain high saturated fats which feeds inflammation, excess weight and disease causing elements.

century ago, soil was rich and crops were filled with health benefiting omega oils. Today, wild plants mimic what all crops previously contained. For example: purslane (a weed) has 8x more omega 3 (alpha-linoleic acid) than cultivated plants. These essential fatty acids are required for your body to maintain a healthy balanced weight. When consuming this high saturated fats, animal food diet, the body attempts to use these unwanted lipids, increasing weight. A Kings College, London, England study concluded the following: “After 10 days of consuming McDonald’s ‘food,’ 1/3 of gut bacteria was gone. This increased inflammation potential in the intestines, which dramatically reduced serotonin which relaxes the muscles fiber throughout the body. In addition, this defect could lead to depression.” If you have yet to view the documentary “Super-Size Me” you may want to take the time to see how rapidly these poor choices of fare can destroy your health.

Brown fat deposits use triglycerides to produce heat, synthesizes healthy building of omega 3, a net producer of DHA, and is central for weight control as it burns fat. In addition, exercise and sleep can convert white fat into brown fat. A hormone (irisin) released from muscle cells form white fat into healthy brown fat. This process helps you burn unwanted weight.

All women’s body types are unique and require a different style for proper fit and comfort. Below are twelve tips to finding the best bra.
1
Look for a bra that supports your breasts without being too restrictive. Restrictive bras can stagnate the lymphatic system preventing it from being able to detoxify properly. If the lymph system accumulates excess waste it can be very detrimental to a woman’s health. Wearing a bra that is less restrictive can also help to strengthen your breast muscles and ligaments. When breasts are regularly being held up and supported by a restrictive bra this can cause the ligaments and muscles to atrophy, thus increasing breasts to sag even more over time.
Faithful Organic Cotton Bra
2
Refrain from wearing bras that have underwires. Underwires are usually made of metal with a plastic coating. The wires push on the lymph nodes, breast tissue and meridians of the body that correlate to specific organs such as the liver, gallbladder and stomach. These organs can be affected over time through pressure on specific acupressure points. The pressure on these points along with the metal wire can also impede our natural flow of energy in the body. Additionally, this metal acts as an antenna to attract harmful electromagnetic frequencies.
3
If you have larger breasts, find a bra that has wider shoulder straps which help provide more support. This will help your overall structural alignment and take pressure off of your shoulders.
4
Find a bra that is not tight around the underbust area and does not dig into your back or sides. For larger busted women, look for a bra that has a wider back band. When you take your bra off at the end of the day, you should not have
indentations or red marks in the areas that your bra was covering. Being free of those red marks help ensure your lymph fluid is draining and is not being trapped when you’re wearing your bra.
5
If you have smaller breasts or feel comfortable not wearing a full bodied bra, choose to wear a bra that is strapless or perhaps go bra free and just wear a camisole. These styles are less likely to dig into sensitive areas and help support the natural movement of the breasts. Allowing your breasts to move freely along with your daily activities is what stimulates the lymphatic fluid in your system.
6
Only wear bras made from natural fibers which allow your skin to breathe. Synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and acrylic suffocate the skin and heat the body to abnormally
high temperatures. It is especially important that your body remains at a regulated temperature in the breast and vaginal areas. High heat in these areas can be a precursor to breast and cervical cancer as well as infertility.
7
The most optimal bras are those free from underwires and made from fabrics such as organic cotton. Choose bras made from organic fibers that are manufactured using organic practices to guarantee that they are free of harmful chemicals including: industrial bleaches, toxic dyes, and chemical finishing agents that can contribute to many ill health effects. These chemicals remain in the bra for the lifetime of the garment and do not wash out in the laundry. It is also important to note that breasts are mainly made up of fatty tissues and fat retains more toxins than normal tissues in our body.
Treasure Bra Organic Fairtrade
8
Get rid of the padding. Opt for a bra that does not come with padding attached to the bra. If a bra has padding that is synthetic, remove the padding. Most padding is made from petroleum based chemicals and can often contain chemicals such as flame retardants, anti-bacterials and anti-mold chemicals, etc. Pads also hold more heat in the body, and discourages proper temperature regulation.
9
Look for a bra that contains less than 10% spandex, lycra, or elastane in its fabric content. Ideally, 100% organic cotton is the best option but you should also consider a bra that moves with your body and keeps its shape throughout the day. Therefore, a bra that contains at least 90% organic cotton with 10% or less of spandex, elastane or lycra is satisfactory. Anything more than 10% of these fibers can compromise the purity of the fabric and leads to a higher amount of synthetic fibers against the skin.
10
For sports and higher impact activities, choose a sports bra that fits loosely yet supports comfortably. Make sure the bra has wider straps so that they are not digging into your shoulders as you move. The wider straps will also help provide support for your back and posture. Exercise is a great way to support our lymph system as we must rely on movement and muscle contractions to move the fluid.
11
Find the right fitting bras that support you throughout the month. Women’s breast size can fluctuate during their menstrual cycle. Women can also retain more fluid during their monthly cycle and it is important to wear the proper fitting bra during this time. This is an important cycle when your body is working overtime to cleanse the system and eliminate toxins and impurities that you have accumulated throughout the month. Wearing the same size bra all throughout the month is not conducive in supporting this monthly internal cleansing if it is impeding your lymphatic system. It is important to shop for a bra during your monthly cycle to find a proper fitting bra that will assist your body’s system during this crucial time.
12
Whatever bra style you are wearing, if your bra becomes uncomfortable throughout the day, take it off or loosen it up as much as you can. If the bra is adjustable in the back, adjust it to the widest setting to give you more room. When you sit down, your ribs and back area widen making your bra fit tighter around your chest. Even if your bra seems to be non-restrictive, refrain from wearing a bra as often as you are able. When you get home from work, immediately take off your bra and definitely remove your bra when you go to sleep.
During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we are all well aware of the rise in breast cancer and other diseases throughout the world. To help combat breast cancer and other similar diseases, be sure to embrace the following list that may reduce your risk of disease. As our awareness grows, we are better able to diminish risk factors and live the healthy and happy life we were created to live. • wear non-restrictive (organic) clothing • provide your body with healthy nutrition • reduce stress • partake in daily exercise • eliminate environmental toxins from your surroundings • get the proper amount of restful sleep

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF HEALING: AN INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR AND COUNSELOR, ANDY ROMAN
W
hile gathering informative articles exploring the topic of forgiveness for this issue of HOW, we were rightfully reminded of the valuable role forgiveness plays in our healing and wellness. In the followng conversation with Andy Roman, where we explore the psychology of healing, the undeniable connection between forgiveness and healing surfaces again. Andy has served as a mind/body psychotherapist at Hippocrates since 1990, practicing and teaching radical feeling-centered, body-focused awareness tools to help our guests and health educators. He conducts private sessions with individuals, couples and families and also facilitates our ongoing, successful Healing Circle Therapy and Support Group. While we’re all aware of the obvious benefits of physical healing, the integral value of psychological healing can easily be overlooked. Let’s begin our conversation with your thoughts on the importance of the psychological aspect of healing. I believe the psychological/emotional component is paramount in the healing process. Neither disease nor wellness happen in a vacuum; they happen in the context of our humanity. Therefore, unwinding the human dramas of pain as the person holds them in his body is central to unlocking the healing response.
|
BY RENEE DELEON |
In your practice of helping individuals on the path towards psychological healing, where do you begin when counseling someone in the difficult position of battling disease? I begin counseling, always, with what I refer to as a deep feeling approach. I’ve written a book, Deep Feeling, Deep Healing: the Heart Mind, and Soul of Getting Well, in which I describe my deep feeling approach in theory and technique very specifically. In a nutshell, I believe disease portrays a pantomimed version of something unconscious—either repressed (once known and now hidden), or still unknown (never known and still hidden) Consciousness is the cure. I base my work on a holistic triune brain model, which has strong implications for how the body/mind system processes, and often stores, pain and trauma in what I call “Pockets of Unconsciousness” within the body. These dark areas, often located in disease-related areas of the body, carry muscular contractive, selfprotective states that inhibit proper oxygen flow, cellular nitrification and waste removal. My job is to help remove those internalized hindrances by helping the person connect to feelings and bring in the light of love and reality. When a person has deep integrative experiences, those pockets disappear and the system normalizes hormonally, neuromuscularly and mentally.

I look specifically for the body response, the emotional response and the meaning response in how my client portrays his or her experience of the world. These elements clue me in to the nature of what carries the most importance and the most emotional charge and, therefore, the most likelihood of ushering in new awareness. My focus is to help a person become unrepressed and fully feeling. At that point, all the energy that went into staying unconscious can be liberated and the mind/body’s natural move towards health can proceed unhindered. Please share your thoughts on the following familiar topics surrounding the process of healing: 1. HEALING THE PAST… These are the main psychological hurdles that plague the psyche until they are resolved. Most present pain has its roots in past pain, from a time when we, as kids, didn’t have that many resources to deal with both difficult and not-sodifficult life events. Often, an adult person utilizes the same coping strategies based on the same conclusions they came to when they were little. Those childhood strategies must be replaced because the body needs to be updated. The person can then awaken to the present moment— not just intellectually, but viscerally and emotionally. That’s what updates the body and alters the body’s response. That’s what makes a body no longer a suitable host for disease. 2. I DON’T “DO” DISEASE TYPE THOUGHTS… I’ve seen denial or refusal to be sick work favorably, sometimes. I’ve also seen those same decisions as symptoms of selfdelusion which wasn’t in the best interest of the patient when considering the big picture. In my opinion, there’s no single formula here. 3. ATTITUDE… A roll-over-and-die attitude never helps. A healthy state of surrender is the best– that’s a balanced combination of “fight-like-hell” and “accept what I cannot change.” Again, there’s never a single formula, but rather guidelines with which
38
| HIPPOCRATESINSTITUTE.ORG | Forgiveness
one navigates the changing waters of dealing with an illness. 4. VISUALIZATION… I’m convinced that inner visualization helps—especially when the visions come from within, as in dreams, for instance. To listen to soothing sounds and have someone else suggest images of waterfalls or something soothing, in my opinion, has limited benefits. But hey, if it helps, I’m for it. For those who have never let themselves relax and enjoy, it may be just be the thing. When I use inner imagery, I try to make it open-ended so the person comes up with their own soothing imagery. 5. THE POWER OF A HEALING ENVIRONMENT… The subtle influences of the environment, especially the social and emotional environment, often play a huge role in triggering stress responses, and therefore, they’re powerful. These same invisible factors of the environment can be rallied for the good. At Hippocrates, we demonstrate them in a positive way through the Healing Circle (support group) and the general pervading sense of unity and community at every stage of a guest’s stay. An optimal healing environment makes room for a person to face and feel any unresolved issues of life, relationship and self-worth in a loving, accepting milieu in additional to direct human encounter in the here and now. 6. SELF-ESTEEM… Self-esteem is like the keel of a boat. With a good one, even storms can be wellnavigated. With a poor one, or none, a person can capsize even in the shallowest of waters. Good self-esteem can serve as a great tool in getting well, and let’s face it, especially when you’re sick, it pays to be your own best friend. 7. LAUGHTER… Laughter is pain unmasked—a great healer. Laughter does a body good. 8. PRAYER AND MEDITATION… Prayer speaks the quiet language of connection. With heart, prayer can unlock the body’s errors.

What are your thoughts on a few of the currently popular healing and wellness theories? “Your biography determines your biology.” (Carolyn Myss, PhD) The first principle of psychoneuroimmunology states that “Whatever is out there, goes in; and whatever is in there, comes out,” which is to say that our experiences when we’re young preset the wiring of our nervous system and, basically, lay down the foundation of how we experience everything. I strongly believe that the body follows what is in the heart and mind. How we each hold it is how it is, for us. “What you think about and internalize is what manifests.” (Wayne Dyer) I do believe that the conscious mind can influence outcomes and what manifests, but I believe it’s more those areas about which we are unconscious that determine what comes to us in life. Therefore, it behooves one to be conscious! “Your mind is in every cell of your body.” (Candice Pert, PhD) Based on Ms.Pert’s discovery of the network of neuropeptides which carry emotionally tagged information throughout the body, moment to moment, like a vast virtual library of biologically encoded memory, it is clear that our unconscious mind is the body. We can no longer talk about the mind as some sort of disembodied entity—it’s literally one system.
Deep Feeling, Deep Healing: The Heart, Mind, and Soul of Getting Well is for both the professional therapist and general health seeker. Andy Roman transforms the latest findings from the mind/body science of psychoneuroimmunology into practical techniques for busting dysfunctional patterns of behavior, mobilizing the healing system, quickening recovery, and breaking out of ruts. This book is filled with illuminating and moving case studies.

n the world of wellness, gut health has taken on greater importance than ever before. This is because of the increasing amount of scientific data that shows that the health of our micro-biome directly determines the health of our entire body. As such, feeding the gut beneficial bacteria via probiotics and fermented foods has become a serious priority. Yet, with so many companies seeking to capitalize on the insatiable demand for probiotics, it is very easy for consumers to get misled and confused. One product, however, stands out from the rest: ZanaJuices™. ZanaJuices™ is a fermented probiotic drink that contains organic vegetables, filtered water, and 15 different strains of beneficial bacteria. In each 3 ounce serving, there are 1 billion cells of beneficial bacteria. According to Thomas Corbett, the founder of New York-based ZanaJuices™, most probiotics are grown in cow’s milk, soy milk or rice milk, and the white powder you see in most probiotics is the milk, soy, or rice it was grown in.
Additionally, almost all of these probiotics are not organic. This means that the soy is likely to be genetically modified, the milk could very well be from cows who were fed GMOs and injected with synthetic growth hormones, and the rice was probably sprayed with a cocktail of toxic chemicals. Given that so many supplements currently sitting on the shelves of health food stores contain GMOs (the popular ingredient maltodextrin is one prime example of this), the lack of purity in probiotics shouldn’t come as a big surprise. Another key differential is that nearly all probiotics sitting on store shelves or in refrigerators are “freeze-dried.” While the cold does not kill the bacteria — it renders them dormant — they don’t become activated again until a certain period of time after entering a person’s body. The probiotics in ZanaJuices™ are fully alive and never dormant, and they go to work immediately upon entering a person’s body. What makes ZanaJuices™ so special is the way that the drink is produced.
B Thomas Corbett grows all of his own vegetables, which means he knows exactly how and where they have been farmed. But the real magic takes place in the soil. Traditional agriculture, with its toxic chemicals, has devastated the soil quality in our country and even the soil on organic farms, while better than conventional farms, is severely lacking. That is why Thomas takes granite and five other rocks and crushes them into a powder. This powder is then mixed into the organic soil and provides all of the very important minerals that the soil and vegetables need but don’t have. Thomas says that when he is planting each vegetable, the soil is tested in a laboratory under a microscope to determine whether it has the exact right combination of minerals and nutrients for that specific vegetable. A tomato, for example, might require different minerals than a green pepper. So, each vegetable will be grown in the most ideal and

Y
nutritious soil possible. The farm is then flooded once a week with a liquid solution that contains the 15 different probiotic strains. The plants and bacteria end up eating both the soil and the powder from the rocks throughout the entire growing process. And the bacteria works its way into the inside of the plant. This process is so powerful and the plants are so healthy that the carrots and kale continue to grow throughout the winter, despite having ice and three feet of snow on top of them. Once the vegetables are picked, they are added to filtered water and are sealed in a tight container until the fermentation process ends, which is roughly 3 to 4 weeks. The liquid is then strained and bottled for sale. Because of its unique and painstaking production process, ZanaJuices™ is offering a drink unlike any other for consumers seeking the ultimate in health and healing.

n 2014, I met an enthusiastic, highly intelligent and insightful researcher named Tom. His curriculum vitae included decades of work in the natural health field and an astute interest in nutrition. He spoke to me about enriching soils with not only nutrients, but healthy bacteria, so that the plants growing in them would be exceptionally healing and nutritious. He explained that since the growing season in the north is only three to four months, he had to find a way to preserve these benefits. Fermentation of these foods amplify their benefit via digestibility with the added attraction of
providing superior pre- and probiotics. Hippocrates Health Institute agreed to do an in-house study on this extraordinary food supplement called “Zana.” During one year, we provided this powerful juice to people in the conquest of serious disease. Comparing their blood profile numbers and report improvements, we have concluded there was a significant advantage in consuming this elixir of biological nutraceuticals. We strongly advise that people consider drinking Zana, when healthy or not, due to its bacterial, immune boosting essence and its high level, multiple food based nutrients.

fter a grueling trial and hours of heated deliberation, the jury convicted 19-year-old William of kidnapping and murdering 14-year-old Jessica. The judge sentenced him to life imprisonment and made mandatory meetings with Jessica’s mother, at her request, as part of his punishment. Day after day, Jessica’s mother met with William in a private interrogation room in the prison. While chained to his seat, she yelled at him, cursed at him, cried in front of him. She made him look at photos of Jessica and told him many stories about her. At first, William was sullen, numb and non-responsive. He sat, arms limp, staring out with vacuous eyes. Months into these mandatory encounters, after an especially heart-rending expression of grief from Jessica’s mother, William cracked. At first his face twitched; the mask crumbled. He wailed, “I know what I did was horrible! I’m a monster! I deserve to die! I hate myself!” Tears flooded from his bloodshot eyes. From then on their meetings took a different turn. She saw his pain and his remorse. She saw a tiny seed of light emerging from the dark spiral of his life. She told the guard to unlock his shackles and William was

cooperative and compliant. Two months later she said, “William, I hate what you’ve done. Now that I see that you’re suffering and that you have a conscience about your crime, I can let go of you.” She never visited that prison again. When I saw the TV documentary about their story, I was moved. I took note that Jessica’s mother didn’t magically or “spiritually” jump to forgiveness. She crawled there and made William crawl, too. What Jessica’s mother did to William was also something she did for William. She helped him get in touch at a feeling level and find his humanity in the midst of the black hole of his life. That served as a loving act that released William while simultaneously freeing herself. Natural Rhythms of Forgiveness As a therapist, I see people wrestle with forgiveness, often wanting to skip normal human steps to get there. On one hand, they feel morally compelled to get there instantly, as if it’s simply the “right” thing to do. Every religious tradition espouses that forgiveness, as a quality of the Deity, becomes ours when we, as imperfect creatures, forgive others. To err is human, to forgive is divine. To forgive is to take a step towards divinity. Who wouldn’t want that?

The paradox is that when you skip steps to get to forgiveness, the journey often ends up taking longer. The process of forgiveness is organic and has natural rhythms. Rivers don’t flow in straight lines; they meander according to the terrain. In being wronged, in the wake of boundary violations or betrayal, the inner landscape can include feelings of loss, sadness, grief, hopelessness, despair, powerlessness, resentment and rage. Jessica’s mother knew all of these, and navigated their waters out loud. By neither ignoring or skipping any of the feelings, she let the process unfold organically and ensured a deeper finality at its conclusion. Feeling is the key. An organic path to forgiveness includes natural timing, a natural unfolding that simply can’t be rushed. When it comes to forgiveness, the readiness to let go is the real driver of the process. Jessica’s mother wasn’t ready to let go until she saw and felt certain signs in William that helped her do so. Confronting him, expressing the whole range of her human responses to him, quickened the process for her and for him. As hard as it was, and even if there was an aspect of revenge in her motives, it turned out to be a beneficial, wholesome and righteous thing to do.

Remorse Greases the Wheels of Forgiveness Of course it’s easier to forgive a wrong-doing when the perpetrator is sorry about it. Even in our criminal justice system, when a prisoner comes up for parole, the parole board looks for three things to determine release or not: 1. Admission of guilt, do you own that you did it? 2. Remorse, are you sorry you did it? 3. Rehabilitation, are you changed; can we be sure you won’t do it again? When any of these are not forthcoming, the parole board simply says that the prisoner is not ready to be released yet. Here’s my point: without ownership or remorse, the forgiveness process can, and maybe should, take longer. Self-Forgiveness The last chapter in this saga is self-forgiveness. Now that William has owned the crime and felt the remorse, is there redemption for him? Jessica’s mother never used the word “forgive” or “forgiveness” in her language to William. She said that in seeing his suffering and awakening conscience, she could let go of him. She was not to be the source of William’s redemption, for that source lives within him.

PREM RAWAT FOUNDATION’S PEACE EDUCATION PROGRAM The Prem Rawat Foundation is a nonprofit public foundation created in 2001. The purpose of the Peace Education Program (PEP) is to help participants discover their own inner resources—innate tools for living such as: inner strength, choice, hope and the possibility of personal peace. The curriculum is based on 10 DVDs with each focusing on a particular theme. The course has been presented in 68 countries at a large variety of organizations and community groups including colleges, youth programs, adult education programs, hospice centers, retiree centers, prisons and rehabilitation programs.

William was no longer denying or even wrestling with his guilt—he was admitting it. He wasn’t blaming others or playing victim in any way. He owned the crime and was doing his time. As the TV journalist followed him for the next months, William reported thinking of Jessica and her mother every day while getting in touch with deep levels of self-loathing about the horror of his actions. “My life was hell before prison, and life in prison was hell, too, but my hell went deep. I was in the hell of self-hate. I had done the unforgivable. I wanted to be punished—to kill my evil self. I wanted to die.” Years into his incarceration, William was introduced to a relative newcomer on the penitentiary circuit, the Prem Rawat Foundation’s Peace Education Program, a non-denominational outreach self-awareness curriculum bringing the message of self-responsibility, dignity, and inner peace to prisoners. He attended classes weekly, and eventually, “Something switched for me,” he recounted. “I heard the message that peace was within me, no matter what I had done, and that I could have it and deserved it. It took me a long time to let that in, but now I’ve accepted it. I am, and will always be, so sorry for what I’ve done, but my life isn’t over and it shouldn’t be. I can live the rest of my life in a way to make up, as best I can, for what I’ve done. I need peace, and I want it.” Jessica’s mother and William, independently, and because of each other, both found acceptance through letting go. Their path to redemption wasn’t neat and tidy; it was messy and very human. Ultimately, whether we get there smoothly or not, in the final act of letting go, we relax into the reality of love.

breakthrough nutritional supplement, Cardio Miracle Vegan, is being introduced to the Hippocrates family. Under the recommendation of Viktoras Kulvinskas, and under the nutritional guidelines and recommendations from Brian Clement, this dual pathway nitric oxide product has been recently formulated and is now finally available to the valued members of the Hippocrates family and advocates. Nitric oxide, known in the medical community as the miracle molecule, has only been on the health radar for less than 25 years. Its benefits and research were awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine in 1998, and its discovery and immeasurable benefits on cellular health and inflammation has been the subject of approximately 100,000 clinical studies since that time. Nitric oxide is a brief flash of highly concentrated gas produced in the arterial lining that the body calls on for major antioxidant benefits in fighting inflammation. It is also critical in healing the delicate lining of all the crucial delivery vessels in the body, including the cardiovascular, lymphatic and nervous systems. It was called “the spark of life in the cell” by researchers at the University of Florida. Case Western Reserve Medical determined that “nitric oxide is an essential gas in the normal exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the cell.” Many cancer researchers have determined that cancer begins with the abnormal reproduction of cells and an unbalanced exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Nitric oxide has now been determined as the third ingredient
in that critical transfer and most people’s nitric oxide levels have diminished greatly starting in their late 20s. Cardio Miracle supplements and delivers a unique dual pathway signaling of nitric oxide, along with over thirty other naturally occurring ingredients, through the bloodstream and to the cell. Several decades of research claims that nitric oxide reverses arterial plaque, heals the arterial wall and delivers significant anti inflammatories and anti oxidants, through the minute capillaries, to the finite body tissues. The formulator of Cardio Miracle was given the challenge by Brian and Viktoras to create a product from only natural occurring sources and organic ingredients where feasible. This effort combined years of nitric oxide research with almost a year of analyzing and allocating ingredients to maximize the nitric oxide delivery for the longest period possible, while delivering world class natural ingredients like Vitamin D, B, C, E, biotin and many others in an absorbable and efficacious manner. Over the past year, the original Cardio Miracle formula has had glowing reports from elated consumers from vastly improved lipid panel blood results to increased energy and mobility, significant benefits to sexual health, substantial support in fighting chronic illness, due to improved Vitamin D levels and many other benefits. There are also many examples of managing diabetic conditions, neuropathy, prostate health, macular health, bone density, increased muscle mass and even weight management, often from the increase in mobility, energy, and stamina.
“I NOW USE, AND RECOMMEND, CARDIO MIRACLE. IT IS, UNQUESTIONABLY, THE FINEST NITRIC OXIDE PRODUCT IN THE MARKETPLACE.” - D R J O S E P H P R E N D E R GA S T, E N D O C R I N O L O G I S T

a major nutritional breakthrough
Hippocrates will be publishing patient results and experiences during the next year to illustrate the value and benefit of this critical breakthrough supplement that we are so proud to introduce to our advocates. This product was created specifically for individuals living a vegan lifestyle as well as for any discriminating patron who wants the finest in nutritional supplementation, virtually replacing many supplements that will be delivered more efficiently with dual pathway nitric oxide. The HHI website has an extension video with the formulator, John Hewlett, and
other video testimonials from HHI clients, FAQ information and other educational and clinical information for the educating and benefit of our users. Cardio Miracle Vegan provides many of the daily supplement needs and nutritional organic vegetable benefits that clients will be able to accomplish by taking the prescribed two doses daily with pure water. Cardio Miracle Vegan is formulated to have a pure complimentary taste, so that it can be easily combined with green juices, warm herbal teas or other non protein liquids for maximum benefit. The organic
powders are of the highest quality, and every ingredient has been carefully sourced for its purity and adherence to the highest Hippocrates manufacturing and sourcing standard. This exciting breakthrough of cardiovascular and lymphatic health with dual pathway nitric oxide is now available online at www.cardiomiracle.com/HHI for your health and benefit. Try some and see for yourself why Viktoras, Brian, Anna Marie and others are making this a staple of their daily, high quality supplementation along with the HHI living food diet and lifestyle.

e know that 100% organic food is an essential foundation to help our families, especially our young people, in their journey towards a salutogenesis blueprint for health, pursuing the positive innate process of choosing factors supporting wellness of body, mind and spirit rather than those that cause disease. In our toxic world it is crucial to stay focused on using the most vibrant of organic foods to promote health, especially when government or corporate initiatives inadvertently (or purposefully) attack our wellbeing. For example, public health officials seek to mitigate exposure to the mosquitoborne Zika virus by exposing the total population of humans and other species, such as bees, to deadly pesticides known to cause harm and compromise health stability. Simply put, there is an imbalance and an urgent need for a correction of priorities. This is not news to most of our readers. You know that we, as a conscious community, are constantly wrestling with government officials and their corporate giant partners to protect food integrity, (in particular, the organic and 100% organic certifications) and set priorities that favor our health. The Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI) has been at the forefront for 40
W B OO R D L Y D
decades as the standard-bearer and pioneer in providing a model foundation for the highest quality foods policy that truly makes a difference in healthy diets for all families in the USA and worldwide. In the United States, the passage and signing of the national labeling bill, S 764, regarding biotech or genetically engineered foods (GE or GMO) has been a milestone. Clearly this is not the bill that we wanted, but it has become law. This bill has extended the timing of food labeling and the POP Campaign continues to monitor its implementation and policy work to ensure transparency and to make certain your voices are heard. There is a lot that will happen before this bill is fully implemented and we will work to insure the government regulations developed are in the best interest of the public. Sadly, in Washington it has become commonplace for government agencies to take big actions when Congress is out of town, when the public is focused on others issues such as summer vacation, amidst flooding in Louisiana and during one of the most contentious elections in our lifetime. By placing all of these factors near the end of an administration — the staff presses hard to get as many policies in place before the
change of administrations takes place. This is exactly what has been happening with the USDA and FDA in the food and supplements arenas. Food Labeling: An excellent summary of S 764, the Food Labeling Bill, was presented in the last issue of Healing Our World magazine. The USDA is moving forward with assembling a “working group” of internal experts from across agencies. It opted to use a working group rather than form an advisory group because this allows the USDA to circumvent federal advisory committee laws on transparency, public notification and inclusion, and federal document production. The POP Campaign has confirmed that there will be no transcripts, archives, or requirements for public inclusion or notifications of meetings and agendas for this group. USDA offices that are going to participate in this process include the Agricultural Marketing Service, Food Safety and Inspection Service, Foreign Agricultural Service, Office of Budget and Program Analysis, Office of Communications, Office of Congressional Relations, Office of Tribal Relations, Office of the Chief Economist, Office of the General Counsel and Office of the Secretary. POP Campaign’s consultant, Beth
Clay, is keeping a close eye on this activity to give us direct feedback as the meetings unfold. GRAS Final Rule: The FDA, after nineteen years and enormous pressure from consumer groups, issued a proposed rule for public review on food additives, known as GRAS – Generally Recognized As Safe. A lengthy 300-page document describes a safety level for dietary supplements for humans and animals because of the increased use of chemicals in our foods and in the industry. The regulations seem to, for the first time, clearly acknowledge that dietary supplements are part of the food category and do not require the same approval standards established for synthetic drugs — the decade long, multi-billion-dollar approval process that even the big pharmaceutical companies complain about. Part of the agencies capitulation to the rule of law is that the GRAS process will continue to include a voluntary notification transparency process of reporting to the FDA the ingredients in supplements. This is an attractive option for products like probiotics because it is much less expensive to conduct and submit a GRAS notice than a New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notice.

FDA Issues Revised Draft Dietary Supplements: New Dietary Ingredient Notifications: In August 2016, the FDA issued their latest iteration of the ‘nonbinding’ Guidance for Industry regarding New Dietary Ingredients (NDI). This is a key component for the full implementation of the 1994 Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). The first failed draft was issued in 2011 and had many problems that showed that the FDA continues to try to force dietary supplements into a drug regulation model. According to the FDA’s 2012 analysis, there are about 55,600 dietary supplement products in the marketplace with about a ten percent (5,560) increase annually. There were about 4,000 products in the marketplace when DSHEA became law with the FDA acknowledging 750 NDI submissions. In 2011, Brian Clement submitted a six-page comment for the Congressional record stating: “The extensive NDI Guidance document goes too far, is based upon an incorrect premise, proposes protocols that will result in higher consumer prices for supplements and undermines the integrity of the supplement industry subsequently inhibiting access to healthy choices.” The FDA’s response: “Based on those comments and on meetings with industry and other stakeholders, we realized that the 2011 draft guidance contained gaps and unclear statements that were subject to confusion and misinterpretation. Therefore, we decided to clarify and better explain our thinking on some critical issues, in addition to explaining their public health significance, and to request additional comments on these issues before publishing

a final guidance.” One of the important conclusions and possible pitfalls in this document is the commitment by the FDA that they need to develop “an authoritative list of preDSHEA ingredients, based on independent and verifiable data.” The FDA acknowledges the data for this does not exist within its realm and suggests that industry would need to provide this information. Moreover, dietary supplement industry attorney Anthony Young has confirmed there is no “authoritative list of dietary ingredients that were marketed prior to Oct. 15, 1994.” This can be interpreted as the FDA asking the impossible of the industry. This latest iteration of the NDI Guidance document continues to include a suggestion that dietary ingredients that go through a ‘chemical alterations’ requirement, such as sprouting or fermentation will need to go through the NDI process. Industry has expressed concern about the FDA’s interpretation of synthetic ingredients and believes it will need to dialogue further with the agency. The FDA is holding the docket open for 60 days to receive public comment. If you have any comments, please direct them to the POP Campaign at bclay@ hawkinternational.us Biotech Food Production/ CRISPR technology: In September, the Advisory Committee on Biotechnology and Twenty-first Century Agriculture will meet to hammer out a draft report that is to include “a model for convening coexistence discussions at the local level as well as guidance for farmers around the production of identity-preserved crops.” This will begin to set standards for biotech food production as
well as the stage for CRISPR technology to gain momentum which is a process where a particular gene is deleted from a food, such as the “rot gene” in mushrooms, so that the food stays longer on shelves without going bad. We will continue to monitor this activity and keep you informed. The POP Campaign in partnership with HHI continues to monitor progress on multiple fronts and our unique presence in Washington, DC gives us an edge to ensure that your voice is heard clearly and loudly where it counts. The POP Campaign serves as a strong active voice for complete transparency in the American food system, seeking to protect the quality of our food through clear labeling and fostering transparent standards so every choice is a clear choice in the marketplace. The POP Campaign understands that the maze of labeling is challenging for busy moms and dads and dedicates its actions to make a difference every step of the way to counter industries latest manipulation of the food supply through artificial and potentially harmful means. The POP Campaign’s presence in Washington ensures that your voice is heard at every step of policy development possible and that your food and standards are not manipulated or compromised. Please visit our website www.popcampaign.org and consider a financial donation. Your donations are necessary to ensure a watchful eye and presence in Washington as well as to strengthen our ability to mobilize to make a difference at any given moment. As one supporter recently stated, “People who want to make a difference in the food landscape support the POP Campaign.”

TESTIMONIALS “Though I have been vegan for seven years now, I must share that becoming a raw vegan has completely changed my life. In addition to having more energy, I also feel much calmer and more composed than I have ever experienced! Currently, I’m enjoying practicing yoga, veganism and introducing raw veganism to my community. Being a living example is how I intend to spread awareness. I am now working a talk program where I give presentations in schools, colleges and hospitals here in Nepal. I believe making changes where one lives is the best place to begin!” Best regards, Prerana Shahm—Nepal “I have devoted my life to using the teachings of Hippocrates to help Chinese people heal themselves with holistic medicine. I am the first HED student direct from China; this is my pleasure and pride. I am so happy that Hippocrates gave me hope and solutions. Heal ourselves, then help others. This is my ambition after my HED program. I am going to build a team to help me with this mission, and I am preparing to build a new holistic lifestyle transformation center in Shanghai. We will invite Brian and Anna Maria Clement and other experts to kick off the HHI China lecture tour. This is my mission.” With love, Yasin Ye—China “I love providing and sharing what I learned at HHI in my home country, Jordan. I now live in Canada and I have been making interviews at Chin Radio in my native language of Arabic.” Have a great day! Samer—Jordan, Canada
