Peter Gillham’s Natural Vitality* (his company’s name) has a product called *Natural CALM,* I would like to highly recommend to you. It is “a relaxing magnesium supplement.” It is also a “Natural, anti-stress drink,” which “balances your calcium intake” and “restores healthy magnesium levels.” — wow! What a blessing!

Our friends, Eric and Nancy Wesson, of Stewardship Resources, at http://www.goodgut.com have this product. You can email them through their website, to request information on how to order *Natural CALM* through them. They are regional representatives of the Weston A. Price Foundation. We know them personally, and we highly recommend this family as an excellent resource for high-quality products to improve your family’s health !

MAGNESIUM: Miracles in Minutes

After oxygen, water and basic food, magnesium may be the most important element your body needs. Magnesium activates over 350 different bodily processes, including digestion, energy production, muscle function, bone formation, creation of new cells, activation of 8 vitamins, relaxation of muscles, as well as assisting in the functions of the heart, kidneys, adrenals, brain and nervous system. Lack of sufficient available magnesium in the body can interfere with any or all of these processes.

Magnesium depletion can be caused by such things as mental stress, caffeine, sugar, alcohol, tobacco, drugs of all types (”even prescription drugs, chosen by medical doctors” — this blog’s writer added this part, in parentheses), high perspiration, low thyroid function, diabetes, chronic pain, diuretics, and a high-carbohydrate, high-sodium or high-calcium diet.

DO YOU HAVE A HEALTHY MAGNESIUM LEVEL?

Ninety to 95 percent of the population (of people in the U.S.) are below healthy magnesium levels, including many who already use magnesium. Why? First, the amount of magnesium required by the body is greater than people think. Second, most magnesium capsules and tablets are not completely absorbed by the body.

SYMPTOMS OF MAGNESIUM DEPLETION

Millions suffer daily from the following symptoms of magnesium depletion:

– Low Energy

– Fatigue

– PMS and Hormonal Imbalances

– Inability to Sleep

– Body Tension

– Headaches

– Muscle Tension

– Backaches

– Calcification of Organs

– Weakening Bones

– Heart-Related Difficulties

– Anxiousness

– Nervousness

– Irritability, etc.

CALCIUM NEEDS MAGNESIUM

Calcium needs magnesium in order to assimilate into the body. However, when too much calcium is consumed, it will pull magnesium out of body parts. So calcium can actually rob the body of magnesium. Drinking pasteurized milk (which is about 8 parts calcium to 1 part magnesium), for example, will deplete the body’s magnesium.

STRESS

Without sufficient magnesium, the nerve cells cannot give or receive messages and become excitable and reactive. Feeling nervous, irritable and unable to relax are signs of needing magnesium.

ENERGY AND FATIGUE

Magnesium is vital for the maintenance of adequate energy reserves. When insufficient magnesium is available, cellular energy production is inhibited, and the eventual outcome is fatigue and weakness.

Magnesium is also essential for regulating potassium levels and the functioning of the adrenal glands — both important for maintaining high energy levels.

SLEEP

Inability to sleep, muscle soreness, tension and feeling uncomfortable upon rising are caused by a lack of minerals — particularly magnesium. All these conditions are greatly helped by taking magnesium.

MUSCLE DISORDERS

Muscle spasms, cramps, jerks, tics and hiccups are all caused by a lack of magnesium. Take sufficient Natural Calm and they will disappear.

PMS and WEAKENING BONES

PMS and hormonal imbalances are greatly exaggerated and worsened by a low magnesium level. Too much calcium will worsen PMS considerably because it throws off the mineral balance. Instant relief can be obtained by drinking Natural Calm.

THE NATURAL CALM SOLUTION

The solution to restoring a healthy magnesium level is Natural Calm. Developed by leading nutritional researcher Peter Gillham, Natural Calm features a proprietary process that provides the most absorbable, effective, fast-acting magnesium available anywhere.

Natural Calm is a 100-percent natural water-soluble magnesium powder of the highest quality. Natural Calm handles excess calcium in the body and gradually dissolves calcium deposits, giving a new lease on life and instant relief to many symptoms of magnesium depletion.

Don’t let stress ruin your day. Be calm. Get Natural Calm today!

“Celtic (brand) Sea Salt *, Nature’s Original Seasoning, contains living, unprocessed crystals.”

This information is taken from a brochure that briefly shares about *Celtic Sea Salt.*

The Original Brand (trademark)

Celtic Sea Salt * is authentic, unprocessed whole salt from one of the most pristine coastal regions of France. Since 1976, Celtic Sea Salt * has been harvested by the paludiers (salt farmers) of Brittany using a time-honored farming method that preserves the purity and balance of ocean minerals.

Using Celtic Sea Salt * for all your cooking needs will enrich the taste of your foods while adding vital nutrients to your diet.

_____________________________

Why Celtic Sea Salt *?

Celtic Sea Salt * is highly recommended by many health professionals and culinary chefs. It’s no surprise why. Celtic Sea Salt * is hand harvested and dried by the sun and wind. It contains no anti-caking agents, bleaching agents or other additives. It contains a natural balance of minerals and trace elements and is unmatched in its flavor.

Celtic Sea Salt * is a beneficial addition to your diet. The composition of our blood plasma, lymphatic fluid and extra cellular fluid all mirror the chemical balance of the ocean water from which Celtic Sea Salt * is derived. The human body uses the minerals and trace elements in Celtic Sea Salt * to create electrolytes, maintaining these “internal oceans” which are vital to the proper functioning of every system in the body.

_____________________________

Celtic Sea Salt * Varieties: It is available in 3 varieties. Each variety is available in resealable bags, shaker jars and glass gift jars. Celtic Sea Salt * is certified by Europe’s nature et Progre’s to be free from pesticides, herbicides and harmful chemicals and it is certified Kosher by the Atlanta Kashruth Commission.

Light Grey Celtic Sea Salt *: (this is what we like to use) This form of Celtic Sea Salt * is a coarse, moist salt that gets its light grey hue from the pure clay lining of the salt pans it is harvested from. It may be ground with a mortar and pestle or in a salt grinder. ( I grind mine in a coffee grinder. It works well. ) It is great for cooking because the crystals dissolve with heat and moisture and food is enhanced by its assertive flavor.

Fine Ground Celtic Sea Salt *: This is the same as Light Grey Celtic Sea Salt *, dried at a low temperature then finely ground. It works well as an all-purpose shaker salt and as a recipe ingredient.

____________________________

The Finest Quality Salt Available — Less than 1% of the world’s salt harvest has the extraordinary quality of Celtic Sea Salt *. We work with only the finest paludiers, true artisans in the craft of salt farming. Each salt harvest is carefully inspected, and the cream of the crop is hand selected to bear the name of Celtic Sea Salt *.

Storing Celtic Sea Salt *: This salt is best stored in a ceramic, glass or wood container with a loose fitting lid that allows the salt to breathe.
