I have always been a "flower child". Even before the 60's and 70's movement towards the acceptance of alternative medicine and healthful living was popularized. My family history presents strong psychic abilities on both my mother and fathers side. Therefore, familiarity with vibrational frequencies is a natural part of my being and is becoming grater understood by all.

Several natural approaches to medicine depend on balancing the body’s vibrational frequency by giving healing energy to weakened systems. This energy is noted in living vibrational frequencies of foods and natural supplements which can also bring our energy into balance. Recent advances in quantum physics show that our thoughts can alter and affect the world around us and the fact, our red blood cells are in perpetual vibration. Those vibrations help the cells maintain their characteristic flattened oval or disc shape during their four-month lifespan and is critical to their ability to travel blood vessels in the body. During this process our human red blood cells must squeeze through tiny capillaries to deliver oxygen to tissues and pick up waste (carbon dioxide) functions that are essential to life. If our blood cells are unable to remove carbon dioxide from our blood at a proper rate, carbon dioxide poisioning is a result. Carbon dioxide poisioning is fatal if the condition is allowed to progress untreated. Persons on oxygen must be monitored for this. Blood disorders such as malaria, sickle cell anemia and spherocytosis interfere with those vibrations, so a better understanding of the vibrations could help researchers develop treatments for those diseases. Frequency and energy healing have been substantiated as creating valid results.

Many people “sense” the vibrational energy of different foods, medicines, supplements, technology, color and other things that surround us in our daily lives. As stated, these frequencies can affect our bodies, our minds, and our state of well-being by bringing our own body frequency up or down, in tandem with their energy. (See chakra Balance) When we ingest a food or supplement, its frequency, as well as its chemistry, affects us. These are the principles upon which "Essential oils" and vibrational healing are based. Essential oils work on physical and energetic levels to help bones knit, relax sore muscles and relieve tension and stress.

Pain Relief with Essential Oils: Heal Injuries, Sprains, Soreness, Joint Aches, Back & Neck Pain

How Essential Oils Promote Pain Relief

Essential oils are potent tools to relieve stiffness and pain, because they contain thousands of different molecules that act on the body to aid in healing. They also contain “the life force of the plant”, a resonating frequency that is unique to each essential oil. These vibrational frequencies contribute to the impact the oils have on the human energy field and, in the process, on the human body such as Physical Pain. Applying essential oils directly on the area that hurts nourishes cells and enables the body to metabolize waste and heal injuries more quickly.

How digestive enzymes are destroyed or rendered inactive

1. Chemical cultivation. When natural food is grown in an artificial, chemical environment created by chemical fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides, enzyme content suffers.

2. Heat. Enzymes begin breaking down at 118° F and are totally destroyed at 129° F.

3. Pasteurization, Sterilization, Freezing, Micro-waving. All these modern processes render enzymes inactive.

One of the most effective ways of preventing disease is to maintain an ample reserve of enzymes in the body.

Medical research shows that food enzyme supplements can fight illness, slow the development of life-threatening diseases, and slow the effects of aging. Dr. Francis Pottinger conducted an amazing study with over 900 cats. He fed one group of cats raw milk and meat. They lived healthy and disease free. They produced healthy litters generation after generation. He fed another group of cats pasteurized milk and cooked food. After the first generation, this group became lethargic and began to suffer from allergies, infections, and other diseases, including heart, kidney, and lung diseases. Each succeeding generation of cats that ate cooked food suffered more diseases. By the third generation, the cats were unable to reproduce.

Another study showed that after eating cooked food, the human body reacted just as if suffering an acute illness. Within 30 minutes of eating cooked food, white blood cell counts increased dramatically, as though the body were fighting an infectious disease.

In a very interesting experiment, one group of pigs was fed enzyme-rich raw potatoes and another group enzyme-deficient cooked potatoes. The pigs eating cooked potatoes gained weight rapidly. The pigs that were eating raw potatoes did not get fat.

An area of deep concern is obesity. Dr. David Galton at the Tufts University School of Medicine tested people weighing 230-240 pounds. He found that almost all of them were lacking lipase enzymes in their fatty tissues.

Lipase, found abundantly in raw foods, a fat-splitting enzyme that aids the body in digestion. Lipase activity breaks down and dissolves fat throughout the body. Without lipase, fats are kept and stored in tissues. We see this manifest around the waistline, hips, and thighs. According to 1998 statistics, a minimum of 25 percent of our children are overweight today—an increase of 33 percent since 1978. This obesity may be due to chronic enzyme deficiency.

Sweeteners + Joint Pain

The worst dangers are not found in natural sugars but in the use of artificial sweeteners. Seventy-five percent of the adverse reactions reported to the U. S. Food and Drug Administration come from a single substance: the artificial sweetener, aspartame.

Aspartame is marketed today as NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful and Equal-Measure. Aspartame is found in an enormous variety of foods and products – READ LABELS so you can avoid this ingredent. Aspartame users are suffering from symptoms ranging from headaches, numbness and seizures to joint pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy. This toxic artificial sweetener is made up of three chemicals: aspartic acid, phenylalanine and methanol. What these chemicals do in our bodies is anything but sweet.

How MSM Works to Control Pain

When fluid pressure inside cells is higher than outside, pain is experienced. The MSM found in Sulfurzyme equalizes fluid pressure inside cells by affecting the protein envelope of the cell so that water transfers freely in and out.

MSM has been documented to be one of the most effective natural supplements for reducing the pain associated with rheumatism and arthritis. The subject of a number of clinical studies, MSM was used extensively by Ronald Lawrence, M.D., in his clinical practice to successfully treat rheumatism and arthritis. MSM is the key ingredient in the supplement Sulfurzyme. Also, glucosamine and chondroitin are some of the most powerful natural compounds for reducing inflammation, halting the progression of arthritis and rebuilding cartilage. These are the key ingredients in the supplement BLM.
