A boating accident leads us to Hübner Silica Gel.
"I was struggling with knee pain as a result of a boating accident, I received a recommendation for Hübner Silica Gel and I am amazed how well it worked for me," said Owen of OurFHP.
Owen was introduced to Hübner Silica Gel by someone who had been experiencing chronic knee pain for years. Before scheduled knee surgery, as a last attempt for temporary improvement and pain management, he tried Hübner’s Silica Gel. Three weeks later and a month prior to surgery he saw a significant improvement in knee function and pain relief, so noticeable that he cancelled the surgery. The operation was cancelled.
Shortly thereafter, Owen slipped on a boat and dislocated his knee. After a period of significant pain, he also started taking Hübner’s Silica Gel. Two weeks later, the healing process seemed to accelerate, with noticeable improvement. In addition to the Hübner Silica Gel, Owen took Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Fish Oil for its purported ability to improve joint lubrication. The combination of the two products helped Owen recover and saved a visit to the doctor’s office.
Hübner Silica Gel contains silicon. Silicon, a component of silica, gives structure to all living things, plants and animals alike. Plants use more, animals less, a trace by comparison. For us, it is essential and found in numerous organs and constructive elements of our bodies. Silicon gives strength and support to nails, hair, skin, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments.

As we always have to say; Hübner Silica Gel has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Become a Menber, Join a Club
I don’t want to get in the middle of the debate.
The health care debate continues. I don’t want to get in the middle. Having been responsible for health benefits for many employees for many years, like others, I have some ideas of what we need. A major effort was made to encourage employees to reduce their health risk.
We know a few things about staying healthy. Don’t smoke, don’t drink to excess, don’t eat to excess or eat too much of the myriad of foods that the myriad of experts say are not good for you, exercise, not necessarily in an organized fashion, but walk, climb stairs, be active, stay out of the sun, but get some sun and push your family and friends to do the same. Have regular checkups and the tests suggested from time to time for your age and health situation. Easy, no? No.
The objective in all of this is to join the many overlapping groups, clubs that have a lower incidence of health problems. Members do not always live longer, but tend to have a better quality of life, as a group. There are no guarantees and, for many, it’s a difficult concept to accept. What’s the point, all that effort for a possible, not a probable benefit? Forget the lifestyle changes, live as before and compensate with pills, for many, lots of piles, competing pills, expensive pills.
Most of the products on out site, www.OurFavoriteHealthProducts.com, are dues for various health clubs. Increase your daily fiber intake; you joined the high fiber intake club, better health for the group. Omega-3 fish oil: same thing, another club with better health for members. Take a good multivitamin, you joined another club. Use a good laxative when you need it, welcome to the free and easy club. Constant constipation is not good for you; it stretches where you do not want to stretch.
So, join a club, join as many as you feel comfortable with.
Today, we see articles on the need to control sugar intake. A report from the American Heart Association brings this to the fore. The American Beverage Association and The Sugar Association see things differently. But those that contol their intake will see benefits.
Like many businesses, now we are up and running, we are adding a more products to our site. In a couple of weeks we will have the full line of L’Erbolario natural herbal beauty care products and some other innovative natural health and personal care products. We have already extended our line of Nordic Naturals Omega-3 and Konsyl products.

Why DairyCare?
The why, starts with a problem for some, but not for all. The probability that you are lactose intolerant varies with your origins, but more on that later.
A lack of the lactase enzyme in the small intestine allows the lactose in dairy products to pass, unmolested, through to the colon. Once in the colon the resident bacteria, using their DNA to adjust their preferred food source to lactose, use the unprocessed lactose, via fermentation, to produce gas and more gas, mainly hydrogen, carbon dioxide and methane. The result is lactose intolerance discomfort, the cramp, the bloat, the gas expletive and diarrhea. The resulting pain in the gut culminates in a desire to move in the direction of the rest room.
The enzyme lactase breaks down lactose sugar to a simple sugar, which is able to be absorbed into the blood stream through the small intestine, just as you would want it to be. Normally the bacteria of the lower level, the colon, do not have the option of lactose to eat, but when they do, the result is a bout of lactose intolerance.
DairyCare has two ingredients, lactase, always useful, and live Lactobacillus Acidophilus, which, in the small intestine, produce lactase.
The developer of DairyCare solved two problems in designing this product. The first problem was how to keep the Lactobacillus Acidophilus alive, ready to do their job, and, the second was how to deliver them, unharmed, through the cauldron of the stomach to the tropical regions of the small intestine. The first problem was solved by giving them an environment conducive to sleep, similar to suspended animation. The second problem was solved with a capsule impervious to stomach acid, able to navigate the stomach. So, DairyCare delivers the lactase enzyme and live Lactobacillus Acidophilus to the small intestine.
Let’s return to your origins, Europeans, with exception of the Dutch and some Scandinavians, range from 5 to 20% of the population who are lactose intolerant. The rest of the world, except where the population is of European origin, range from 40% to 100%, with the vast majority at the higher levels.
The choice is yours, a single dose of DairyCare each day or the aggravation of adjusting your diet.

Why SennaPrompt?
One of my favorite subjects is constipation. You are constipated and I have to adjust my life to suit you. I sit in our hotel room and wait, no trip around town to see the sites this morning. Or, "pull over at the next gas station, I am feeling lucky today."
SennaPrompt capsules contain a blend of psyllium fiber and senna herb extracts. SennaPrompt’s all natural ingredients promote the timely relief for constipation. The senna herb extract gets the muscles on the right path and the psyllium provides a natural stool softener. The result should be a bowel movement in 6 to 12 hours. Many users find that it works overnight. The label gives you a range of how many capsules to take, 1 to 5 capsules once or twice a day. It’s a pretty wide range, so use your judgment, most people will know whether they need more or fewer capsules, but some experimentation may be necessary.
The best long-term product if you have an ongoing problem with constipation is Konsyl Original, the fiber supplement. SennaPrompt is an occasional use product and a transition onto the high dose Konsyl Original fiber supplement is recommended. Fiber, recommended by doctors, takes from 12 hours to several days to work, hence the need for a faster acting product in the interim.
A SennaPrompt capsule has 500 mg of psyllium fiber, a bulk-forming laxative, and 9 mg of sennosides, a stimulant laxative. So, you can calculate how much fiber and how much stimulate laxative you are taking. SennaPrompt should be taken with plenty of liquid, a full glass.
Stories of constant long-term use of aggressive abound and the indication is that they become habit forming to the point where nothing functions without a dose. SennaPrompt may help the transition to a fiber supplement.
So, why SennaPrompt? This product is not as aggressive as other laxatives. It is natural and the fiber element is something you want to take everyday anyway, you have a solution that gets you on the road to a high fiber diet, what you wanted, or even needed, in the first place.
So, SennaPrompt can be considered a little boost, when you need it, take it occasionally, not constantly, combine it with a high fiber diet and you know what you need for that.

Join the Omega-3 club
When you take your daily dose of an Omega-3 fish oil supplement, you join a club, the Omega-3 users group. A club that, according to countless, it seems, studies and research papers confers on its members a lower incidence of various maladies and an improvement in general well being, not necessarily for you, but for the many of the group. Anything to improve your chances of having a higher quality of life is maybe worth the effort. We have to say that Omega-3 fish oil is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease and the statements and conclusions of the various studies outlined in the following articles have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Why fiber and, if fiber, why psyllium? And if psyllium, why Konsyl Original?
How many times do we have to hear it? You need fiber in your diet. Count the many ways you can get it, it seems food producers can find fiber in anything, even, occasionally, when it is not there. And counting is the objective. You need your daily dose, depending on who you listen to, some 25 to 40 grams, most of us get about 15 grams, so they say. Ah, but does not weight and age make a difference? Sure it does. But, not to be too technical, women need 25grams and men 40grams, all very approximate, as you get older, so rumor has it, a little less will do. If you get it, dietary fiber that is, you feel it, and some of us just get it because we happen to like to eat the right things. You can also get too much, which will inhibit the absorption of minerals and vitamins, but few of us will have this problem, underachieving is the norm when it comes to ingesting dietary fiber.
Then you have your soluble and insoluble fiber. What does that mean? Soluble is soluble in water, insoluble is not. Both have benefits, you need both, and together make psyllium, which is actually the seed husk, the most beneficial fiber, for its ratio of soluble to insoluble fiber, about two thirds to one third, and the ability to get to the fiber you need with ease.
How can I make up for the deficiency of fiber in my diet? Read on.

How can I make up for the deficiency of fiber in my diet? Read on.
Each dose of Konsyl has 6 grams of fiber, more soluble than insoluble, as we said. Konsyl can be taken up to three times a day, if you are only getting 15 grams, this is useful. But, start slowly. Addressing your fiber deficit all at once can cause a problem. Let your system get used to the additional fiber intake over a number of weeks.
For the record, Insoluble fiber is; the part that keeps the stool harmonious and keeps diarrhea at bay, the part that keeps you regular, the part that keeps constipation a memory and is recommended in cases of diverticular disease. IBS, irritable bowel syndrome, is frequently mitigated by taking Konsyl Original. Soluble fiber is the part that does the good things you cannot feel, except for the lightness in your step and, hopefully, lower medical bills. Soluble fiber helps control blood pressure, helps lower cholesterol, helps control blood sugar, lowers the risk of heart disease and provides food the good gut inhabiting bacteria.

The big benefit of Konsyl is the dose, it’s the largest on the market, but it has other good attributes: easy to take 100% natural psyllium fiber, no sugar or sugar substitutes, gluten free and safe during pregnancy. Konsyl has been recommended by doctors for over 50 years.
We recommend the Konsyl Shaker Cup to mix your daily dose or doses of Konsyl Original with water or whatever other juice or beverage you want to use. You can use just about anything to mix with Konsyl. Konsyl should only be taken with liquids, 8ozs for each dose.
So, take your Konsyl Original and do yourself a good turn, and those around you, they will be happier as well.
