PACKAGES!!

Does my title scream enthusiasm? I hope so. Becuz I'm ENTHUSSED! A few days ago my Rapha supplements came in the mail. (Rapha also means God the Healer) At first glance, it looks sketchy. Supplements? What? Random UK business? Alternative Medicine? (I could go on forever, I'm going to be a health sci major) BUT, before you criticize, remember I've criticized already!(and i would not get into something that I didn't absolutely have faith in.)

So heeres the scoop: My brother-in-law introduced my sister to them when they started dating. HIS mom in England started Jonny and his brothers on it when they were younger for various health reasons. J's brother Dave was always getting sick, he had a severe immune deficiency, and missed a lot of school. His mom also was frequently ill and she couldn't find answers from any doctors. A friend told them about Rapha, and soon after his whole family had hair samples done and apparantly their health has never been the same since :)

I am taking Rapha because I have been experiencing very low energy levels and no change in my muscle mass and toning (despite vigorous working out 5 times a week). I love eating wholesome, real, healthy foods. But despite my diet, every time after a meal I would feel sluggish, tired, or even sick. My body wasn't absorbing the nutrients out of my food, and didn't know what it do with it. It was absorbing all the undesirable sugars and toxins and holding onto them. My workouts and healthy eating were doing zilch to my overall health! My skin was also showing the disfunction. My skin is prone to breakouts, and I have had red spots, general scarring, and blemishes on my face since I was 14. I've tried cutting out dairy, sugar, chocolate (heaven forbid!) and wheat, but since consulting with friends, family, and now, Rapha, I've realized that my outward skin is only showing signs of my inward problems.Even after a few days of taking them, after I eat, I can actually FEEL full and feel my food being digested, therefore I am more alert and actually have TONS of energy, and not just fall asleep. My skin has improved dramatically, and I'm am just feeling overall better.

Here's the breakdown of what I'm taking.

The CYTO-ZYME is a digestive enzyme for helping your body reabsorb minerals and vitamins etc. Before I started taking them, my body was reacting to the majority of foods I ate because my body couldn't break them down. The cyto-zyme will helps to absorb and breakdown foods by reintroducing digestive enzyme that are lacking in my stomach.
The MULTI-VITAMIN is for energy. It's one of the best Vitamins on the market, because it is food state it is more easily broken down by the body to get the minerals that you need, like: Vitamin C that is a chemical isolate at 1000 mg can’t be utilized by the body so it will take what it can around 50 – 100 mg and flush the other 900mg through the kidney making the body work harder.  A food state Vitamin C is around 150 mg because it utilizing all of it  there is less waste so more energy for the person.

The MAGCAL is a tonic tablet it contains 5 out of 11 base minerals. So, there's is something there for my nervous system for muscle and bone growth there is also Iron for my energy levels and anti-inflammatory. Magcal contains PPMP which will re-energise my adrenal glands. The Adrenals is the battery of body, so which is why I've been a bit flat or lacking motivation or just pushing myself too hard so my body isn't having a chance to recharge.  I was not absorbing nutrition from my food and hadn't been for the last 6 months, so my body was lacking in energy.. so it was having to use it's adrenaline more than it would usually use.



So, without further blab - here they are!

 just another pillow? ...

 notice the ROYAL MAIL. snap.

 Yes, they do have a nice spot behind my curtains.
