JOIN US IN PUTTING PEOPLE FIRST THIS MONTH ON YOUR FACEBOOK & TWITTER POSTS & EMAILS

 

Will you join this month in making every attempt to avoid the use of words such as: I, I'm, I've, me, my & mine from Facebook & Twitter Posts and Emails.
This is for Me; My chance to take the focus off of Me, realizing that it has been far too easy for Me to think about Myself and to be aware of My needs, to be consumed with My feelings as I am going through My challenges & victories in My life and coming to the realization that it is not about Me. It's about Loving You! It's about Loving Oneanother!

You see; the main subject of this post thus far has for the most part been ME and You Know what?

I am Not Fulfilled. I am Not Happy. I am Not Empowered.
I am Alone and Desperate for a Connection with YOU

Will You Join this Group of Mighty Challengers making a One Month commitment to put the Focus on the Greater Good of Man and Off of Self!?

Just think of the powerful opportunity to express Selflessness and reflect Love for this entire Month; by Putting People First! :o)
The impact could quite possibly change our world!

Simply avoiding the use of words such as; I, I'm, I've, me, my & mine from our posts & emails.

Taking ourselves out of the forefront can be challenging but not impossible.
One might think that it is totally out of the natural to put others ahead of ourselves. Or is it?

Hoping that in placing ourselves last we will come to know harmonic balance in that serene place where we are completed by the comfort of the truth:
it is not about us...
IT IS ALL ABOUT LOVE.

Remember this is not a competition but a journey of self discovery of universal proportions; so don't be hard on yourself.
This will no doubt about it, will take some effort.

As We Focus on Loving People we should see that Love will naturally flow back to us!

So Shine! Baby Shine! :o)

May the Blessings will be Many!

Please Everyone Share this One! Please Send to Everyone in your address book and place as a link in your emails to spread this challenge even further than Facebook & Twitter. Thank You & Bless You!

        

A TRIBUTE TO AN UNHERALDED GREEK PIONEER OF NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE

By: Rev. Dr. Miltiades B. Efthimiou

You probably wouldn't recognize his name. Theodore Kalogeros. His last name might be a giveaway to a Greek linguistic scholar because Kalogeros literally means a good (KALO) elder (GEROS). Another meaning of "Geros" is "elder monk". All of which means that in Theodore�s family tree, there were an abundance of clerics and monks. Theodore died a few years ago, and as a caudicle to the above, his first name-Theodore-translates as "gift of God", appropriate for a man who in the same tradition of ancient Greece, left a legacy worthy of names given to them by family and time.

Who, then, is Theodore P. Kalogris? (Abbreviated from "Kalogeros"). This modern day Olympian who gave so much to so many and who bless his very name for giving them a new lease on life by his memorable contributions?

He was responsible for a company founded on principles that he lived by. The company, known as RELIV, developed a patented nutritional supplement that has affected millions of lives, including this writer. But Dr. Kalogris� contribution to the company�s success goes far beyond his developmental work in nutrition science. To understand this, we must go to his roots. As a teenager, his father admonished him repeatedly: "Be ashamed to die until you have scored a victory for mankind."He never forgot this old-world village philosophy, and applied it to everything he did. Theodore spent much of his adult life in scientific pursuits, working as a consultant to International Health and World Organizations. Through this work, he developed a passion for balanced nutrition as the key to a healthy lifestyle. He used the natural world as a basis for his life philosophy. He often was quoted as saying: "Cows and goats are outstanding chemists. They continually vary their diet to increase or decrease the amount of acid they intake as a means of maintaining perfect balance to their body�s nutrition." It was this observation as a young student that allowed him to observe, study and combat certain diseases in South America simply by altering the diet of animals. He became a legend in that part of the world for this work. He is credited in scientific journals with eradicating the disease of "Bovine "Mastitis" in South America. And in a remarkable way, he applied the same principles of balanced nutrition to himself with tremendous results that he would eventually apply to the formula he would subsequently develop for future generations. Soon, quietly and unobtrusively, he would match the dignity and influence of his peer in women�s diseases, Dr. Papanicolaou, better known as the developer of the "pap smear" that continues to save thousands of women from cervical cancer. Dr. Kalogris� approach was a preventative one, which sought to attack disease before it turned to cancer or any of the other dreaded diseases. He stressed continuously the practical applications of what the human body has to offer and because of the fact that it controls an incredible array of chemicals, minerals and vitamins, as he often said.

"For an individual to be healthy, chemicals, minerals and vitamins must be balanced through proper nutrition." What an incredible philosophy! What a message to a starving world! What a message for mankind that is more concerned with destroying itself over religious and economic ideals, rather than taking care of God�s creation through common sense applications of science and nutrition.

Where did this visionary acquire his inspiration and motivation? Was it just the pursuit of science and biology that inspired him? To find the answers to these and so many other questions surrounding this intriguing pioneer, one needs to go to the beginnings…

He was born in New York City on March 17, 1916 to first generation Greek immigrants. Dr. Kalogris initially was being groomed for the priesthood in the Greek Orthodox Church. His interest, however, shifted from religion, the Bible and theology to the field of scientific research. But it always, seemingly, was in the context of nature and the impetus that the Creator gave to its exploration and study. The admonition of his father, that you must continuously score victories for mankind before you die, was never far behind and it pursued him as a youngster studying in the St. Stephen�s monastery in Sparta, Greece, and in America, where the dreams of his parents and teachers at the monastery to become the first ordained Greek Orthodox priest in America. But alas, it was not meant to be! Instead, he utilized his studies to develop a passion for the study of science and animals. He attended the University of Athens and earned doctoral degrees in microbiology.

Because of the Nazi invasion of Greece in 1939, young Theodore returned to the United States where he continued his studies at Bellevue hospital in New York City majoring in hematology. In May, 1943, he joined the Army as a 1st lieutenant and while on a mission in Europe, as a paratrooper he was severely wounded defending his country resulting in removing 3 of 5 discs in his lower back which confined him to a wheelchair for the rest of his earthly life. He was honorably discharged with the Purple Heart and given the rank of captain.

For the next 12 years, he miraculously worked from his wheelchair as a consultant to several World Health organizations traveling extensively throughout the world as a sort of missionary drawing from his youth in Greece where, as he often said, his greatest lessons came not from the monastery school or from the University where he studied, but from the shepherds in the fields, where, he observed, goats and cows would enhance their diets by moving from lush fields on the mountainside to the rocky hillsides where sparse vegetation was more alkaline. Using this example, he developed his principle of "selective nutrition" which balances the body chemistry with all aspects of nutrition and dairy products. It was this principle that led him to the research and development for eradicating "Bovine Mastitis" in South America. While on this project, the inspiration came to him to ask a simple, yet profound question: what is it about cow cells that makes them healthy? He thought if he could find the answer, perhaps he could duplicate it. He accordingly began to study healthy, rather than diseased, cow tissue, looking for answers. After some time, he came up with a formula, and when it was administered to sick cattle, their health improved. Soon the epidemic was over.

Much later, as he was struggling to find a way to get out of his wheelchair, it occurred to Dr. Kalogris that what he found to be true of tissue in cows might be applicable to human tissue in the same manner. This began a project that took him years to accomplish, but in the end, he came up with a balanced blend of minerals, vitamins, amino acids and herbs that impacted any tissue under observation.

He began to take his own formula. The chronic, intense pain he had suffered for years began to lessen as he began to move his previously defunct limbs. After awhile, he decided to try and see if he could stand using a walker, and miraculously, he did! Soon, he was able to take some steps, progressing to the use of two canes, then one cane, then to no cane at all!

It was not long before people who had known him for years began wondering and questioning, "Well, what about my condition? Can you help me?" He prayed on this, and decided to hand out little baggies of his formula. One of the people who was helped was Robert Montgomery, a successful businessman who, at the age of thirty-seven, had sold his insurance company for several million dollars and retired due to health reasons. The dramatic improvement in his health after taking Dr. Kalogris�s formula motivated him to wish to share the formula with the whole world. He came out of retirement to set up a company to manufacture and market Kalogris� formula. A prominent attorney advised getting the formula patented to ensure its success, and in 1988, the company, RELIV, located in St. Louis, Missouri, came into existence.

It was not long after this that RELIV INTERNATIONAL was founded. The Reliv product is manufactured and distributed by over 60 thousand distributors in countries like the USA, New Zealand, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom. Since 1995 the Kalogris Foundation provides free Reliv products for undernourished children in countries like Mexico, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, North Ireland, South Korea, Kenya Haiti and New Zealand among others. In 1998 a humanitarian award was given to Dr. Kalogris by Pope John Paul II.

The dream which began in a small remote monastery school by a young Greek boy many years ago is now, as Fortune magazine points out, worth over 77 million dollars.

The halls of science and the field of microbiology and bio-ethics should listen carefully to Dr. Kalogris, a voice reverberating down through time; because it comes from an individual whose message is as eternal as that of the Bible:

"Nutrition is not a debatable issue; it must be of major concern to anyone wanting to maintain good spiritual and physical health."

        

 

I just wanted to let my heart of hearts be known.

I never thought it could be but I'm making plans for my future which brings tears to my eyes. Who of us would ever think it even possible of a future once they've passed as many mile stones as I have but the truth is; I feel that I am fulfilling my life’s purpose at nearly 98 years old.

Last week I shared my story of restored health and a new life with a 107 year old Preacher in Seattle, an 87 year old man in Kentucky, an 87 year old man, His Wife and their Friends in Minnesota and today with a sweetheart of a lady of 70 something from New York!

Carol claims that my story is reaching out from sea to shining sea and I suppose she's right but only by the grace of God and by taking that first step and every step since to share what has improved my life at this late age.

Really, I am living my dream. This is a great opportunity for Health or Income options so I'm going to share it with people all over the map. Thank God I've the good health to do my part! This is really the key to this whole thing! Advanced Nutrition has given me the strength and grew up in me a hope that I could maybe do something more before my life is finished. Again, I figure if it can happen for me it can happen for anyone at any age but especially my heart is going out to other Seniors because their struggles have been my struggles too.

What I was saying concerning this post "I only have so much time" is this:

How much do I have to experience at my age before my experience will be taken to heart and put into action. This is powerful stuff so get on board folks! This train won't be coming around forever. People are in trouble now. Seniors are suffering now. Children are dying now. We All Need Hope Now! 

Please, Help me to help Seniors stay at home with greater health until the end; where life is full and fulfilling until their last breath.

Also deep in my heart is the Business Opportunity that needs to be put into action to help keep Moms & Dads home from corporate America to raise their families and to help families in these trying economic times.  It can happen!  It is happening!  You've just got to get it now before the train has left the station.

I have a question for you:

Who would you like to help with these results like mine right now? Is it your Mom, your Dad, Sisters, Brothers, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nieces & Nephews, Grandma or Grandpa, Great Grandparents, even Great Great Grandparents as that's what I am; then also tell Your Friends, Teachers, Neighbors, Doctors, Dentists, Mailman, the Bagger at Walmart; Tell Everyone my story of Hope Restored and Life Improved at 98 years old.

You see; that way you've done your part in giving someone else the possibility of a New Story of Restored Hope & an Improved Life like I have now.

Good Health to All Mankind!
Grandma T.
Great at 98!

Hello Friends and Family! I know that everyone is so busy, but please take a few minutes to read this email. You all know that Bobby and I have spent the last 3 years being a part of an incredible company Reliv which truly change peoples lives...I just got this amazing testimony yesterday and I read it out loud to Bobby and we both just sat here with tears rolling down our cheeks. Although this is incredible, these are the kinds of things that Bobby and I see every single day happening for people who take our products. This is the amazing story of a father who was desperate to change his young daughter's life-- a doctor who could not imagine that nutrition would be his answer. Please take a few minutes to read this. And then think about that if these products can do this for a little girl with severe brain damage, what can it do for you, or someone you love and care about? It does not matter what the doctors have diagnosed you with, it doesn't matter that you have tried 'everything else.' People who get on our products always get life-changing results. We don't claim to cure, treat or heal anything, we just know that when you put great nutrition in your body, your body is the miracle!

*Why I’ll be in RELIV forever!!!
By John Harold N. Ong, MD (Filipino)
Orthomolecular Medicine
PAGM
Dr John Ong Family
My wife, Dr. Earleen Ong, who also happens to be a doctor at a private medical center, gave birth to my daughter, Angelique Gabrielle “Arielle”, on April 12, 1995. Upon delivery, my daughter was assessed and was given an APGAR score of 4. The APGAR scoring is a practical form of clinical assessment of the newborn which evaluates the baby’s condition. It is recorded at one minute and then again at five minutes.
My daughter Arielle had, at 1 minute, pink body with blue extremities, slight grimace, a little flexion of extremities, an absent respiratory effort, and most alarming of all, a heart rate below 100. Resuscitation was initiated and only after 15 minutes were we sure that she was breathing spontaneously. Thus, at 1 minute, Arielle’s APGAR score is 4. Given this history at delivery, we were now contemplating about the future health and mental status of my daughter.
True enough, at 4 months, my daughter can’t even hold her head up. Normally, a child at 1 year of age, must be able to stand alone without support. We couldn’t even remember when Arielle crawled, what more, stand-alone. It seemed to be an eternity that we have waited for her to move normally according to her age! She was always drooling, had difficulties both in fine and gross motor skills, and at the age of 4, and had not spoken a word. The normal developmental milestone of a child goes like this;
1 month Regards
2 months Smiles
3 months Turns head
4 months Holds head
5 months Rolls over (trunk first)
6 months Transfers objects
7 months Sits briefly
8 months Creeps
9 months Pulls up
10 months Cruises
11 months Walk with support
12 months Stands alone
We brought Arielle to a developmentalist and she diagnosed at the age of 4 with GLOBAL MENTAL RETARDATION! That day, my wife and I saw our world crumble. I have never cried so much in my entire life! (Now that I’m writing about it, I can’t contain myself and tears just roll from my eyes!)
Back to reality… my wife and I could NOT and would NOT accept defeat! We followed all the recommendations. We sent Arielle to speech therapy, occupational and physical therapy and each day, I saw myself paying 350 pesos to 600 pesos a day just to give my daughter a chance to survive in this world.
We felt that nothing was happening. We literally made our world revolve around my daughter. That’s why when my grant from a medical school from the United States came, I grabbed it for further studies. In this new field of medicine, I will learn how to detoxify and solve my daughter’s problem. And so I thought! I learned a lot there however. I learned how to look into cellular nutrition as a possible complimentary supportive treatment for both genetic and heredo-familial disease. I learned how to detoxify toxins from patients using the same toxic substance that they have been exposed too. But the sole reason for my further studies have not been met. I WANT TO MAKE MY CHILD, MY BEAUTIFUL CHILD, BECOME NORMAL!!!
After 2 years in training, I returned not confident enough that I have accomplished my goal. My daughter was then 6 years old. We have to decide where she must study. The recommendation is a special education school. Then came my angel, who happens to be none other than my father-in-law, Mr. Teodoro Seño. He was still a director of a multinational pharmaceutical company when he told me about the food supplement which seemed to be an answer for so many questions. He told me about RELIV!
Reliv? Never heard!!! As skeptical as I am for being in the medical field, I agreed to attend one of their meetings in Ortigas. It was Mrs. Rose Blancaflor (now like a mother to all of us) who was giving the presentation. I heard testimonies and stories. Stories that seemed possible yet so dramatic that I became more skeptical. As doctors, we want evidence-based data! I even want randomized clinical trials and I was asking my father-in-law to supply me with one. I was asking about their so-called bioavailability tests. I’ve probably asked about 2,000 questions from my father-in-law which he couldn’t answer. Then came the word “network marketing”! MY GOD!!! The more that I felt that this is NOT for me. When they explained that this is a food research and scientific company that only uses network marketing as its tool to give health and wealth to people, I was now telling my father-in-law that I wanted to go home and forget about it.
Now that I think about it, if I had walked out of that presentation, I would have also walked out from the sole reason why I was there in the first place… for my daughter’s sake. To appease my father-in-law, I signed in and got the Reliv products. We only had NOW, Fibrestore, Ultrim, Innergize, and ReversAge then. I studied and examined all the ingredients that we have been studying in the laboratory. How come I never heard about it in the States? Nevertheless, I started giving it to myself first.
I have had urolithiasis (kidney stones as well as stones in the urinary tract) for many years. The night I took my first scoop, I slowly felt flank pains and I was so sure that the product was not for me. Being a doctor, I told myself that I would challenge it to the point that I’ll stop when pain is unbearable and go consult my friend doctors to tell them that I was so gullible to believe about RELIV. After 3 days of on and off flank pains, it stopped and I urinated ground stones! I was stunned!
So I gave it to my mom who is diabetic, my father who had 4 episodes of stroke, my cousin who has asthma, my aunt who has arthritis, and to anyone I know who might need it. I took their blood chemistry exams before and after they took Reliv and I was amazed with the results.
Then came the decision to give it my daughter. My wife was against it for some time for we have not tried the product on a child. I reassured her that everything will be fine after giving her a kiss , I place a scoop in my daughter’s milk formula. I told my wife and yaya that everytime Arielle drinks her milk, they must incorporate NOW in the milk formula. I again turned to my wife and I told her that after a month and my daughter is having reactions with the product, I will terminate my membership and forget about RELIV. What do you know!!! In 3 weeks time, Arielle stopped drooling! I was ecstatic! But still, this was too early to tell. My wife who was the one more skeptical than I am, whispered to me that to halt the drooling is a triumph enough for us. I nodded in agreement. My daughter then had a gradual increase in weight. She began moving faster and was responding all the time to us with a smile. Then after 4 months into the product, Arielle walked to my wife and I in the living room, and said, “Dada, where you go?” My wife looked at me and we both started sobbing! My wife Earleen wouldn’t stop crying. Arielle was looking at us confused but that night, all the weight in my shoulders, all the pain in my body, and all the anxiety that we had, floated away like a bad dream.
Now, at the age of 8, Arielle is not in special education. She is not in any speech and occupational therapy. She’s in a regular school and has lots of friends. She is one of the top in her class and has excelled in her studies. Remember that she couldn’t walk nor run jump before? Well, now, she’s enrolled in ballet school and had her first recital last year. Am I proud father? You be! I’m the proudest father!!!
So when people ask me now, why I’m in Reliv, I quickly answer that I am in Reliv because God answered my prayer. “Reliv made me believe in hope again. It gave my daughter her life back.” And we, the entire family, will be taking Reliv products forever… and ever… and ever!

Here's How You can have Heathy Tips Arrive Right on Time in Your Inbox!

Get Your Daily Dose of Color


Spring is ready to burst on the scene in all its Technicolor glory. For better health, you should duplicate this happy color scheme on your plate.

According to a new study, America's Phytonutrient Report, 80 percent of Americans are putting their health at risk by failing to eat a diet rich in specific colorful fruits and vegetables.

The colors of fruits and vegetables are a clue to the important phytonutrients each contains. Phytonutrients are powerful antioxidants that can help fight the damage caused to the body's cells over time that can lead to premature aging and disease. Phytonutrients offer a wide range of health benefits from promoting eye, bone and heart health to supporting immune and brain function.

While health experts recommend you eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day, you should also aim to eat two fruits or vegetables from each of the five color categories, too. The phytonutrient study showed the biggest deficit is in the white category where 88 percent of American's fall short. Another 80 percent don't eat enough fruits or vegetables in the yellow/orange category.

Phytonutrient Color Categories:

Green: Dark green leafy vegetables are rich in lutein, among other phytochemicals. Others in this family are green beans, avocados, kiwi fruit, green peppers and honeydew melon.

Red: Tomatoes and tomato products, watermelon and pink grapefruit contain lycopene, which studies have shown reduces the risk of several types of cancer.

White: Onions (all kinds, including green onions), garlic, leeks, shallots, and chives contain compounds that protect DNA.

Blue/purple: Most of the berries, especially blueberries, as well as plums, red grapes, cranberries, and pomegranates are in this family that contain some of the most powerful antioxidants such as anthocyanins. Anthocyanins reduce inflammation, protect against cancer, and recent studies show positive effects in eyes, arteries, and brains.

Yellow/orange: Citrus fruits as well as peaches, nectarines, pineapple, and papaya are rich in vitamin C and flavonoids, another group of antioxidants that supports the immune system. Other foods rich in carotenes include carrots, pumpkin, mangos, apricots, cantaloupe and sweet potatoes. Carotenes help improve communication between cells as well as performing many of the same functions as other antioxidants.

Not all vegetables and fruits fit easily into families. Just look for the color. Other plant foods rich in various types of phytonutrients are nuts, seeds, and grains, beans, tea and dark chocolate.

All in all, good nutrition is all about colorful choices!

Not able to fit in five colorful servings of fruits and vegetables every day? Fill in the nutrient gaps in your diet with Relìv's essential nutrition formulas: Relìv Classic® and Relìv Now®, the most complete and effective supplements available today. Just two Relìv shakes a day give your body the nutritional support you need for optimal health.

Cancer Center Study of Radiation Induced Fatigue & Reliv Nutrition

Subject: Cancer radiation fatigue & Reliv!!!!!

Hello Everyone! DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS CANCER? OR A CANCER SURVIVOR? ARE YOU INTERESTED IN THE PREVENTION OF CANCER??
THEN YOU NEED TO READ THIS~~
You've got to take a moment to read this clinical study done by cancer doctors in Dallas Texas regarding the use of Reliv products and their effects on fatigue caused by radiation. The medical field is slowly beginning to realize what we as distributors have already proven in the field.....our products work and they are different! This study was done using a very small amount of product yet still produced very significant results in cancer patients who are going through radiation. We have personally experienced much more dramatic results using more product and also when combined with chemotherapy as well. It is only a matter of time before the medical field (if the doctor is open and really wants to help his patient) will have to embrace our products as a powerful way to help their patients!

Bobby and I have been a part of Reliv for 3 years, and we have already seen amazing results with many people who use our products when dealing with cancer. We have helped people who are now cancer-free~~many of whom chose to use the Reliv products only! But we have also helped friends with cancer who did choose to take chemo and radiation, but the exciting news is that they did not experience most of the horrible side-effects associated with the medical treatments!

We are so excited to give you the great news about our friend Charlotte-- Charlotte has battled breast cancer for over 11 years, and has done many medical as well as other natural procedures over the years....her cancer has been in remission some during this time, but when we met her it had returned and she done several chemo treatments that had almost killed her. She was exhausted, her digestive system had shut down, she weighed almost nothing and her skin was gray. She had stopped the chemo because her body could not take another treatment. We started her on the Reliv products and within days Charlotte saw energy that she hadn't seen in years! She began sleeping through the night, and within a couple of weeks her digestive system began to function normally again. I went with her 6 months ago to her doctor and at the time he told her that she had tumors throughout her body, and that they had grown.....she continued to be faithful to the Reliv products and talked with many other cancer survivors with Reliv for encouragement......Last week I went with her again to see what the doctor had to say, and the results were incredible! There was healing all over her body, ALL the tumors had noticebly shrunk, and she had gained weight! Charlotte has cancerous tumors all throughout her body-- her lungs, liver, lymphatic system, bones~~yet in all areas there was significant healing! AND her bone density has improved!! Wow!!
We know that the Lord is our healer, but also that He uses all kinds of things to make that happen, and we are so thankful!! Charlotte looks and acts like a new woman! She has color in her cheeks and a bounce in her step!
