METABOLIC SYNDROME: METABOLIC SOLUTION

- Sylvia Harral Michele Stewart-buller

What is metabolic syndrome? A syndrome is a combinatio­n of things that relate to the same topic. For instance, the automobile industry would include the manufactur­ing of cars as well as selling, driving, repairing, and the demolishin­g of them once they're finished serving their purpose.

Metabolic is a word that's packed with meaning as well. It is the combinatio­n of two overall functions of our body: the building up (anabolic) function and the tearing down (catabolic) function. Anabolism + Catabolism = Metabolism.

The body's metabolic process has to do with the growing of our body in the first place (the womb), maintainin­g its function and effectiven­ess (from birth to death), and returning it to the dust after we die (decomposit­ion).

There are many pathways and steps to be taken throughout the whole process. Each step requires energy. The energy that's required is money. Money is needed to buy the materials to build cars, transport, sell, license, repair, and demolish them. Every worker along the way needs to be paid.

When it comes to our health, the same thing is happening at our cellular level. Our heart needs money to keep working properly day and night. How much do we value our heart? Is he worth: $0.10/hour or $100/ hour? How do we pay our heart? What happens if we don't pay him enough? What about our brain, liver, kidneys and lungs? How much are they worth? Where will we find enough Body-money to pay them all?

Body-money paychecks come to us from 10 different sources. Sunlight is one source and water is another. If we wear sunglasses and drink things that are not water, we greatly reduce the size of our Body-money paychecks. In fact all stimulants (found in coffee, sodas, alcohol, energy drinks and pills, etc.) signal the body to take money from one part of the body and give it to another part. Example: The brain lacks enough Body-money-energy to function fully upon waking up, so it's off to the coffee pot to get energy for the day. An hour later, we have plenty of energy. Where did the Body-money come from?

All stimulants are Body-money-bankrobber­s. They do not bring deposits. They command the loan officer to “Get money out of the body's savings account and put it in the brain's checking account.” The loan officer quickly removes Body-money-nutrients from another part of the body, like muscles, and puts it to the brain's account. If the savings account is empty, the officer will pull money from the retirement account; bones, or teeth.

Food is the third source of Body-money. Some foods, like sugar, contain penny, nickel and dime nutrients. Other foods, like fruits, have $1, $5, or $10 nutrients. Proteins and vegetables are like $20 bills. It won't take as much of these to make the $100 per hour to pay the heart for all his work. If we're depending on sugary foods to pay the heart, we're going to have to eat a ton of them to make $100/hour. If the liver gets worn out from turning pennies into twenty dollar bills, it will start throwing pennies into the abdominal piggy bank. One of the richer sources of nutrients is “Healthy Fats”. They are like $100 bills. It doesn't take much fat to pay the heart to work all day, however, fat has been ruined, demonized and pulled out of our diet.

Artificial nutrients and chemicals really tax the whole system. The organs end up spending more money on eliminatin­g harmful, toxic substances than they spend on healthy function. It's sad to say, but medication­s are not nutrients. They are chemicals.

Nutrients are Bodymoney. The more “Money” we have, the richer our health bank account. Metabolic Syndrome is Body-money-bankruptcy. The result of our efforts to return to health is deeper bankruptcy. “When the body has lost its health, no medication can save us.” ~ Huu Tieu.

Imunstem and Aktiffvate are extremely rich deposits for our Body-money-bank-accounts. All the cells in the body from the Central Nervous System to the skin start being paid what they're worth. Their functions show it, and we feel better. Imunstem and Aktiffvate are the solution to Metabolic Syndrome. Thank you Golden Sunrise Nutraceuti­cal.

During Monday night's class this week, I'll set off the digestive volcano that delivers Body-money-nutrients for our heart and body cells. You're welcome to stop by and watch it from 6-9 PM.

Until then … TAKE CHARGE! … Sylvia
