How Long Before I Get Results?
(Part 1)
by Russell Louie
In this fast-food, quick-fix society,
everyone asks the question, how long before I get results and all my
symptoms/disease goes away? Unfortunately,
people have been previously disappointed by natural remedies and
supplements not producing results. That is because most "holistic"
supplements are only holistic in advertising but not really
holistic in principle and therefore, bound to disappoint those who
believed in their marketing. We are also conditioned by the medical
establishment's drug-mentality, where one can take a prescribed drug for
a very specific symptom or disease and get results in less than one
week. Unfortunately, even though the symptoms might be gone in one week,
the body is
NOT healed from the original disease and
the symptoms may only be suppressed (although we do feel better).
Many people expect to see results from natural alternatives after
just 30 days. Studies have shown that it
generally takes at least
90 days for any permanent change in the body to take effect. This includes
changing personal habits, quitting smoking, dieting to lose weight, results from
natural supplements, etc. Although they look like supplement capsules and
are taken like supplement pills, BioSuperfood and BioPreparation are NOT supplements,
therefore one's previous experience and results with supplements cannot be used
in evaluating BioSuperfood/BioPreparation. A
paradigm shift must occur in order
to be able to appreciate these revolutionary products.
Drugs and almost all
supplements consist of extracts and high concentrations of only the active
ingredients. The advantages of this are quick results and elimination of symptoms.
The disadvantages are potential
side effects, a
dependency on the product and
never taking care of the original cause of the symptom or disease. On the
other hand, whole food products
(like BioSuperfood and
BioPreparation) do not contain high therapeutic doses of
any one ingredient but are a collection of many super nutrients that
work in synergy with each other to activate the body's own natural
ability to heal. To read
about the difference between whole food products and supplements, go to our web
page: Supplements and Vitamins vs. Whole Food
Products. For a detailed example of the disadvantages and side effects of
supplements, go to our Vitamin C Supplements vs. Whole
Food Nutrition web page.
How long before one sees results depends on
many factors including (but not limited to):
- Genetics
- Diet
- How long the body has been imbalanced
(even before symptoms appeared)
- Frequency of dosages
- Regularity of dosages
Genetics—Our own cats are an example of the variability of results
due to genetics. We adopted
two cats from a rescue group,
The Misha May
Foundation, in August 2007, Cajun (center) and Iris (right). Cajun was 3
and Iris was 5 (or possibly older). Both were
overweight and had been
fed poor quality commercial pet food in their foster homes. Iris' coat
felt so awful that we didn't even want to pet her. We switched them to a
premium canned food diet with BioPreparation and then
raw food after a
month. After only a couple of weeks, Cajun's coat was soft and
silky, feeling wonderful to the touch from all the naturally occurring
Omega-3, Omega-6, Omega-9, GLAs (Gamma-Linolenic Acids), ALAs
(Alpha-Linolenic Acids), DGLA (Dihomogamma-Linolenic Acid), DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid)
and more fatty acids
in BioPreparation. With Iris, it took about a year
before her coat really felt good. So, one could logically conclude from this that
her age made the difference. However, we adopted a 10-month old kitten
in November 2008, Simba (left), and it took a couple of months (not
weeks like Cajun) before his coat
started to feel soft and silky. So, he was slower to respond than the older Cajun.
It seems genetic factors played more of a role in responding to the
super nutrition in BioPreparation than age.
Genetics—One's
genetic makeup is a factor (but not an overriding one) in what the body
needs and how the body utilizes nutrients. For example, those whose
ancestors lived near the oceans need more Omega oils in their diet
because their ancestors regularly ate fish and seafood. "Water" dogs and
dogs from Northern climates need more Omega oils from fish (not flaxseed
oil, as carnivores do not have the enzyme to digest vegetable-sourced
oils). How we metabolize nutrients
is generally determined by our genetics.
Diet—Nature intended our bodies to
get an ideal ratio of 1:1 (Omega 6:
Omega 3) in our diets
(some sources say 2:1 is OK). If one eats the Standard American Diet
(SAD), then one is over saturated with Omega 6 oils (vegetable oils). This
overabundance of Omega 6 in our modern day diet causes a shortage of
Omega 3 oils as the body robs the Omega 3 oils from the foods we eat
in order to process the excess Omega 6's. So, one might expect
someone short on Omega 3 oils to experience slower brain function, poorer immune system and
loss of flexibility
as
one ages.
Diet—Another example of how diet can
affect the results is illustrated by the fact our bodies need live enzymes to produce digestive enzymes and
keep the pancreas healthy. If one does not eat any live foods in their
Standard American Diet (SAD), with their
co-enzymes and co-factors for manufacturing enzymes, one can expect to
have decreased digestive function and a strained pancreas (perhaps even
leading to diabetes) as one ages.
Body Imbalance—Most of us do not realize that a
dysfunction/malfunction in the body starts long before symptoms
appear. For example, one's kidney and liver function could start to
decrease because one drinks diet soda (with artificial sweeteners). But
there are no symptoms (except always being thirsty and eating more) for
10 years, so no worries. In addition to the
ingestion
of these chemical sweeteners, one uses personal care products (e.g.,
shampoo, hair conditioner, soaps, hand lotion) with DEA (Diethanolamine),
propylene glycol and SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) in them. This further
damages the endocrine system and decreases the immune function, but
still no symptoms, so no worries. After 20 years of these habits, small
fatty tumors (lipomas) start to form under the skin. Since they do not
hurt or hinder anything, no worries. But after 30 years, these
lipomas
are very large and so unsightly that we now decide to take action to
get them removed. Well, it took 30 years for the body's endocrine and
immune systems to become imbalanced and dysfunctional enough to exhibit
the symptoms (lipomas), so it is unrealistic to expect the body to
reverse these symptoms in three months, no matter what treatment is
chosen.
Frequency of Dosages—Most
natural products work better if taken throughout the day,
much like
time-released formulas. For instance, better results will be obtained by
taking one capsule every 2 hours of the waking day. For most people,
this is too much of a bother, so they take three capsules in the morning
and three capsules in the evening. Will the product still work?
Probably, but one will not get maximum results.
Regularity of Dosages—Just like becoming good at playing an
instrument or sport takes regular practice, becoming well must be
practiced regularly too, not just when one feels like it or has
symptoms. One customer, whose dog had over 10
lipomas, started to get results by switching from a dry kibble diet
to a premium canned food diet. Even more results in the lipoma reduction
was seen when
BioPreparation was added. But the results plateaued
without all the lipomas going away because she did not regularly give
the dog, BioPreparation. She was determined to use
holistic means
(instead of surgery) to get rid of all the lipomas, so she made it a
practice to give BioPreparation every day in the small frequent doses we
suggested. All the lipomas finally
disappeared.
After being disappointed by many other
natural but not entirely holistic supplements,
people ask us for a guarantee that our
products will work. Well, we can not give them a guarantee unless they can
guarantee they will take all the above into consideration for maximum
results.
BioSuperfood
for people and BioPreparation for pets are
NOT SUPPLEMENTS to take just when one has symptoms. Even
though they come in capsules so they appear to be supplements,
BioSuperfood for people and BioPreparation
for pets are
whole food products.
Wake up the body's natural ability to heal with whole food
products and watch the symptoms
naturally disappear.
BioPreparation/BioSuperfood are Nature's vitamin chest in a capsule (literally
containing over 5,000
individual nutrients). Save money, buy fewer supplements and simplify
your life. No doctor or vet exam is needed, no expensive diagnostic
(lab) tests are done and no health insurance required.
BioPreparation has even saved the lives of pets when a vet could not
determine why the pet was dying or make an "official" diagnosis. Make a quantum leap in holistic health and experience a new paradigm in wellness!
