FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Supporting Your<br />

Bowel & Digestive<br />

Function Helps<br />

Prevent Disease<br />

It is most important to keep the whole<br />

digestive & elimination systems of the<br />

body working efficiently. Otherwise toxins<br />

that have not been eliminated set the stage<br />

for disease. Many diseases have been linked<br />

with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial<br />

component. Generally these microorganisms<br />

or bacteria can only survive<br />

due to the fact that the environment they<br />

are in is suitable for their survival. Non<br />

eliminated toxins are probably one of the<br />

main causative factors for their survival.<br />

We know that when the digestive system<br />

& bowel function are poor we have many<br />

more health problems. These include<br />

arthritis, digestive problems like reflux &<br />

stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic<br />

skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis &<br />

rashes, poor eyesight, pain & inflammation,<br />

tumors & a weakened immune system just<br />

to name a few.<br />

Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />

highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />

support the whole digestive system & it is<br />

especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />

bowel & intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />

used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />

digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds &<br />

influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin<br />

conditions like eczema & psoriasis, urinary<br />

infections, liver dysfunction, Candida,<br />

weakened immune function & for people<br />

who want to keep their health as good as<br />

possible.<br />

The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />

production of digestive fluids & bile for<br />

efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />

prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />

digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />

disease causing organisms before they<br />

have a chance to cause any problems. LBS<br />

II also stimulates peristaltic action of the<br />

colon effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />

accumulated build-ups of waste material. It<br />

also relaxes abdominal cramping & spasms,<br />

enhances liver function, purifies the blood,<br />

neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy<br />

intestinal parasites & worms, & fights<br />

infection.<br />

Keeping your digestive system & bowels<br />

functioning efficiently is definitely &<br />

important step in obtaining & maintaining<br />

good long term health.<br />

1 in 2 people<br />

deficient in B12<br />

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults<br />

& as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />

Scientists at Rush University Medical Center found those most<br />

deficient in vitamin B12 to have the smallest brain mass & the lowest<br />

scores on tests measuring short-term memory, concentration &<br />

brain performance. Another study showed that older people with<br />

higher levels of B12 in their blood have bigger, healthier brains &<br />

score higher on cognitive tests than those with lower levels. Yet<br />

another recent landmark study showed that B12 supplementation<br />

slows the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage & declining cognitive<br />

function. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health,<br />

regulation of mood & sleep cycles, nerve health & repair, &<br />

prevention of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor<br />

that is known to cause damage & plaque in the blood vessels. It can<br />

also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a<br />

34% decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+<br />

who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk<br />

of hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />

The reason so many people lack B12 appears to be our body’s<br />

ability to absorb it declining with age as the digestive system<br />

becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication & other drugs<br />

further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in<br />

the form of Methylcobalamin<br />

sublingual tablets that are<br />

dissolved in the<br />

mouth & thru<br />

bypassing the<br />

digestive tract have<br />

been shown to<br />

effectively raise B12<br />

levels in the body.<br />
