Nov. 1,2007 It seems hardly possible that Christmas is next month! I have just lived through a week of the big fires in S. California. We had fires on all sides of us 12 to 20 miles away, but the city where I live was one of two in San Diego County that did not have any fires, but we had plenty of smoke and bad air. God was very good to us and we are most thankful. The big cloud moved out over the ocean and the air cleared somewhat, but a day later the wind changed and blew it all back again, and it was even worse for a day or two. Now we are almost back to normal.
This fire experience, watching and listening to tragedies caused by the fires and people having to evacuate their homes, revived memories of my family's big evacuation from our home in China in 1927 when there was civil war and all the "foreigners" had to get out. It took us 10 days to travel a distance of about 500 miles by a sailing houseboat first up the river to a train. All passenger service had been cancelled so after 40 hours of waiting we were able to get on a troop train where we were surrounded by hostile soldiers. I still feel the terror I experienced when a soldier put the point of his bayonet up to my father's chest. But my father, who was a doctor, was calm and the incident passed. But he sat up all night with a candle for light, guarding us from harm. Those were the days! We came back to America for a year for Mother to give birth to her fifth child. I wonder now how she endured so calmly the hardships of that trip. We lost everything.
I have been busy learning the internet way to do MLM, getting instructions by conference calls and Emails. Charlie Page has an excellent system for interesting people in the business. I have been writing short articles for Ezines, and will print some of them here.
HEART HEALTH AND FISH OILS
The Omega 3 fish oils are the hottest topic now in health and nutrition. They are also known as the Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's). They are critical for your good health and especially for your heart, but your body cannot make the EFA's. They must be added to your diet and taken regularly. They are so important to your heart health that the American Heart Association states that all Americans (adult and children) should supplement their diet daily with at least 1000mg of Omega 3's in the form of EDA and DHA. Many products tout a lot of Omega 3's, but the question is how much EPA and DHA do they have? The less expensive ones are noticeably lower.
When very soon you feel better, such as less aching in your joints, or improved mood, or improved heart function, you may be tempted to think that if a little is good, a lot would give quicker results. Do not go over 4,000mg a day. As you are aware, fish spoils quickly.
Even good oils can turn rancid in your body. To prevent this, you need to take, along with the Omega 3's, a good liquid anti-oxidant to prevent rancidity, because rancidity creates its own problems. Compliance has been a big problem with fish oils, especially when they are taken as an oil, because most people do not like the texture or the fishy taste. Even when the oil is in softgels, which are easier to take, if the oil is rancid inside you could be burping fish oil for several hours. People will not continue on with that. It is important to buy your EFA's from a good company that guarantees freshness, freedom from chemical contaminants, and no burping of fish. You should be able to chew a softgel in your mouth and get no fishy aftertaste. And it is available from good companies at about half of the price charged by the pharmaceutical companies for the same potency.
You will be amazed, when you make this health choice and keep taking the oil, at how much your health problems will improve, such as: inflammation of your joints, heart problems diminish, eye health improves, neurological problems improve, depression decreases, and your weight stabilizes. And you don't even have to take a drug!
