When
someone is diagnosed with a serious disease like cancer or
heart disease, the initial reaction is usually shock or disbelief.
Because
it so often seems that one day the person was "perfectly healthy"
and the next day--BOOM! They've got this horrible disease.
I
have news for you, my friend...
Even
though disease may seem to suddenly come around the corner and hit you like
a ton of bricks, that's simply not the case. Ever.
Disease
doesn't just POOF! appear out of nowhere.
Instead
it's C-R-E-A-T-E-D over time. Slowly, quietly, but ever so certainly.
With
the exception of congenital illnesses (meaning you're born with a
condition), disease typically goes through 5 distinct stages before it
has you flat on your back (or on the operating table fighting for your
life).
And
paying attention to your body and recognizing the 5 stages of disease can
truly make the difference between life and death.
Let's
look at the 5 stages of disease and more importantly, see how YOU can help
fight a disease no matter what stage it's at.
The 5 stages of disease
Stage 1: The acute phase
In
stage 1, your body is challenged in some way. You might be under stress,
working long hours, eating junk food, drinking too much alcohol, not
getting enough sleep or a combination of those.
Your
immune system is likely compromised, and you get sick -- a cold, flu or
infection of some type.
Stage
1 symptoms tend to be of high intensity and short duration, such as an
upset stomach, sore throat, fever, nasal congestion or headache for a few
days.
Drugs
are not necessarily indicated or needed. Usually the symptoms are a
reflection of your body's efforts to "make itself better."
During
this stage it's crucial to provide immune support with things like rest,
vitamin C, antioxidants, probiotics and nutritious foods.
But
if you instead ignore the problem, mask it with over-the-counter medicines
or your body can't adequately heal from the acute illness, it can progress
into...
Stage 2: The sub-acute phase
In
this phase, symptoms are more intermittent, they come and go and are more
medium in intensity. Vague complaints like headaches, back pains, muscle
aches and fatigue pop up.
Immune
support measures like rest and a diet of real foods are even MORE important
in this stage, since illness is taking greater hold and beginning to weaken
your body.
Unfortunately,
what happens is most people in stage 2 simply take medications such as pain
relievers or muscle relaxers, or rely on coffee or 5-hour energy drinks to
alleviate the symptoms as they occur.
And
if this goes on long enough, you can move on to...
Stage 3: The chronic phase
The
effects of an unresolved sub-acute condition may go deeper into your body,
further weaken your immune system and progress into a chronic condition.
In
the chronic stage, inflammation begins popping up, and your tissues, organs
and bodily systems actually begin to degenerate.
Although
chronic symptoms may be less intense than sub-acute symptoms, they're
usually present most or all of the time. Since inflammation is seeping
deeper into your body and affecting its systems, physical impairments can
begin to appear too.
Your
immune system is seriously challenged at this point and cannot provide the
disease-protection support that it should.
But
just like in stage 2, many people ignore what is now an air horn being
blown by your body, and instead just use drugs (both OTC and prescription)
as well as coffee, sugar or alcohol just to get through their day.
But
those "fixes" make the immune system even MORE weak and your
problem MUCH bigger.
And
that is the perfect invitation for the arrival of...
Stage 4: The degenerative
phase
At
this stage your tissues are breaking down all over. Your body is so
challenged that it's chopping away at its own minerals from your muscles
and bones just to survive.
Your
cells die and don't regenerate as quickly as they should. This can mean
anything from digestive problems to slow healing to weakness and fatigue.
You
can begin having problems with your endocrine system (hormones) and nervous
system. Plus your body's system of detoxification begins breaking down,
which means toxins are now running rampant through your bloodstream, making
you even sicker and worsening pain and inflammation.
Musculoskeletal
problems can arise such as ruptured discs, bone loss and joint problems.
Plus your immune system is so weak and inflammation so strong that things
like autoimmune conditions, fibromyalgia and atherosclerosis can pop up.
At
stage 4, a substantial overhaul of diet and lifestyle is VITAL. Your body
needs serious nutrients, your immune system is waving the white flag of
defeat and you're now running the risk of a life-threatening disease.
But
sadly, many people who are in stage 4 go to the doctor and typically
get...MORE medications. And the degenerative process going on inside of
them is not addressed and unfortunately may reach the final stage...
Stage 5: This disabling
phase
The
final stage of disease is the disabling phase. Extensive damage has
occurred to your body's organs and tissues to the extent that you can't
adequately function.
You
may have major trouble even walking or moving around. You can't sit for
long periods. It's a major chore just to get up in the morning.
You
can't do your job, so you go on disability or maybe even totally lose your
income.
The
damage may be permanent, or only partially reversible at this stage.
Stage
5 includes serious diseases such as stroke, heart disease, cancer and MS.
At
this point, better nutrition and immune strengthening can help improve your
quality of life and reverse whatever CAN be reversed, but it's typically a
L-O-N-G process and the prognosis isn't always rosy.
Disabling
conditions frequently progress to death.
So
as you can see, disease doesn't just suddenly jump up and bite you in the
derriere.
It's
created through a distinct process, and the success of each stage to
develop is dependent on how much you ignore the stage you're in, mask your
symptoms with drugs and throw your immune system to the wind.
But
the good news is you CAN make a difference in your health at ANY stage.
Even
in the most serious stage 5, you can quite possibly help reverse some of
the damage, feel a whole lot better and perhaps add years to your life.
Here's
how--let's look at the...
3 major defenses against
disease
1- Get the nutrients your
body must have
There's
no two ways about it -- the single most disease-preventing,
health-enhancing and life-saving factor is WHAT YOU PUT IN YOUR MOUTH.
If
you eat a typical "modern diet" of processed food, fast food or
refined carbs that are nutrient-poor, you can count on cruising through the
stages of disease--it's practically a given.
Plus,
if you eat combinations of foods that don't digest well in your system, you
are opening the door for inflammation-causing acid wastes to accumulate in
your system and making yourself toxic.
Diseases
LOVE a nice, toxic body -- they THRIVE in that environment.
You
HAVE to eat the foods that give your body the nutrients it needs to fight
sickness and disease, and encourage proper elimination of wastes.
Vegetables.
Fruits. Lean meats and fish. Whole grains. Water. Nuts and healthy oils.
All in combinations that are easy for your body to digest.
And
that is what you will learn to do when you use the Great Taste No Pain
system.
The
Great Taste No Pain
manuals will teach you the few simple principles you'll need to know to
make all of your meals tasty, super nutritious and easy to digest.
When
your body is armed with the nutrients it needs, it can better heal itself
and stop the cycle of disease.
And
when your digestion is efficient, you can eliminate toxins, viruses and
other pathogens much easier, and help prevent them from taking hold on you.
Plus,
eating for great health also helps nourish the friendly flora in your gut,
where 70% of your precious immune system resides.
2- Help rebuild your immune
system with a high-quality probiotic
The
typical habits many people have are murder on their immune system.
Things
like junk food, soda, smoking, not getting enough sleep and taking
medications all destroy your beneficial gut flora...
...and
as a result, you are greatly lacking the protection of the bulk of your
immune system!
But
a medical-grade,
multi-strain probiotic like Super Shield can help turn that around for
you.
Super
Shield contains 13
strains of the world's most potent, effective beneficial bacteria found in
the human digestive tract. These good guys line the walls of your
intestines like an army, ready to fight off dangerous invaders.
They
also compete with harmful bacteria for "parking spaces" on your
gut wall, crowding the bad guys and starving them.
This
will help strengthen your gut wall, so acid wastes and toxins are less
likely to leak into your bloodstream and cause illness and inflammation.
Plus,
Super Shield helps make your digestion more efficient...which can mean less gas,
bloating, heartburn and other digestive troubles.
3- The Body Movement Factor
Exercise
is virtually a natural anti-disease tonic...
Take
a look at just some of the impressive benefits you can enjoy from moving
your butt in ways OTHER than just from the couch to the refrigerator and
back:
- Weight management: Regular
physical activity helps to increase muscle mass and decrease body fat.
- High blood pressure
prevention: Physical activity strengthens the heart and lungs which can
help control and reduce blood pressure.
- Decreased cardiovascular
disease risk: Physical activity strengthens heart muscles, lowers resting
heart rate and improves blood lipids (decreasing triglycerides and LDL and
increases HDL).
- Reduced cancer risk: Being
overweight increases a person's risk of cancer, so physical activity can
help reduce cancer risk by reducing weight.
- Decreased back pain:
Exercise can increase muscle strength, endurance, flexibility and posture,
all of which can help prevent back injuries and alleviate back pain.
- Lower risk of type II
diabetes: Regular physical activity can lead to decreases in blood glucose,
insulin resistance and other health complications associated with type II
diabetes, as well as help maintain a healthy bodyweight which also helps
prevent the development of type II diabetes.
- Optimized bone mass:
Weight-bearing physical activity can encourage bone formation and slow the
progress of bone loss.
- Enhanced sleep quality:
Regular exercise is a natural stress reducer, can help improve mood and
reduce depression and anxiety, and encourage more restful sleep.
Stop
the excuses already. If you have time to watch TV, play on the computer or
read gossip magazines, you have time to exercise.
You CAN make a
difference--it's never too late
If
you see yourself in any of the 5 stages of disease, know this:
You
CAN make a difference and help STOP disease from taking its toll on you.
It's
never too late to help your body develop better health from within...that
is, as long as you're still breathing and vertical.
Give
your body the help it needs to give YOU a life free of pain, disease and an
endless sea of medications.
Believe
me, it will make all the difference in the world for you.
To
your health,

PPS: Janette is 68 but she
feels 40 now!
Dear Sherry,
I was really interested in
your email about stopping reflux drugs. I was on Losec and then Nexium for
many years and when I asked my GP if I could stop it he said that if I did
I would end up with a stricture.
I did a bit of research on
natural therapies and I discovered the importance of keeping my body
alkaline. After doing this I stopped the medications and felt okay but
still had occasional reflux.
I was searching the internet
because I had recurrent bladder infections and I came across your
Great Taste No Pain
plan. After purchasing your
plan a few months ago I now have no reflux and am on no medications - and
no stricture. What a con.
I also started on
Super Shield
and have improved out of
sight. I am 68 years old and feel 40, with more energy than I have had for
years, with no bloating or cramps.
I have also noted that family
members who have died from cancer of the esophagus have been on reflux
drugs!
Also I suffered with
constipation in my twenties and the doctor told me to take a laxative. I
took this and ended up having a small bowel resection in my 40's for
Intussusception. I suspect this was caused by the laxatives prescribed by
the doc.
I now challenge them when they
offer drugs and have recently refused to take statins for high cholesterol
and I hope that next time I have a test it will be a lot better. I have
also lost the weight I needed to lose.
Thank you for you for sharing
your findings. I tell everyone I meet about it.
God Bless You.
Janette

Disease is your body trying to tell you something. At first, it will knock gently at the door of your consciousness. It will keep knocking progressively stronger until you listen to your body and try to figure out what the message is. The full-blown disease is the 2X4 across the head, your body is slamming you with to say: "Listen!".
