Living in China
Living in China
Joy and I moved to Beijing China in May of 1995. At time Beijing was at least one third smaller. It was a shock to be in a place that you can’t speak any Chinese and can’t order food or tell a taxi driver where you want to go.
We studied Chinese mandarin there for one and one half years. then we moved to a city in the Liaoning Province called Shen Yang. Joy taught English at a medical university.
In 2000, we moved to Dalian China, a city on the coast. It is beautiful there. We opened an orphanage and received 16 Chinese orphans. We could have taken 29 China orphans that day but we only had enough money to take the ones we got. We still have 12 of those children now. Some are in university, some in high school and one in middle school.
There are many Christian Ministries in China doing different things different ways.

China Orphans March Letter
Dear Family, Friends, and Pastors:
2nd Timothy 2:10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
We are patiently waiting to see signs of Spring over here. The weather still is cool, with temps in the 30’s and 40’s. We are believing for warmer weather to come our way, as the heat is turned off in all apartments and buildings on the first of April. That month is usually a time when we wear coats and even gloves and scarves in our apartments! But we know it is temporary and are able to endure all things.
Dawn Is Breaking:
Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before all men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
There is a break of dawn here, with light beginning to shine forth as I am teaching English to Korean Mothers, Korean Children, and a group of young fellows who work in a Ship Yard. A most interesting thing is that out in the Shipyard there is a huge monument. It is the Bible. There are two monuments, one is inside the gate, and the other one is on the main floor of the office building. On one side of the open book is inscribed Is. 25:1 in English and the other side it is in Chinese. It ministers to many as they stop and read the inscription. The company has employed over 500 employees. What a wonderful witness. The mother’s that I am teaching at the Korean School are open to hearing the good news, and there are some that are already in the family! Children are beginning to ask questions about our Father also. The splendor of His glory is beginning to break through, and He is showing Himself off in the classrooms.
Also I am meeting weekly with a young University student who is becoming more and more interested in walking in the light, and living the good life that has been prearranged and made ready for her to live.

Financial Education Services - The Six Worst Items To Appear On Your Credit Report
It's easy to make mistakes or experience hardship when it comes to paying your bills. Some mistakes are so detrimental; want to avoid them at all cost. Since future creditors and lenders use your credit report to make decisions about you, it’s important to understand how each of these impact your credit file.
1. Charge-offs
Missing your payments for 6 months or more could cause your creditors to deem your account as uncollectible. When this happens, the creditors write that debt off as a loss against their income taxes. Charged-off accounts are allowed to be reported on your credit report for seven years. Just because a debt is charged off (or written off) does not mean the debt is forgiven. The money is still owed. The creditor will usually sell or assign the debt to a collection agency or a lawyer to effect collection.
Some companies continue to charge interest, but most don't. If they do decide to keep charging interest, they have to continue to report it as income. Most companies would rather just write it off and be done with it.
Having charge offs on your credit report usually results in the consumer being denied credit by other lenders. Even worse, it can also affect the interest rate that other lenders charge on current debts even if those lenders were not impacted by the charge off themselves.
If you find yourself late on your payments, you should always try to contact the lender and let them know you are having problems meeting your financial obligations. Ignoring the situation and letting it get to charge off status always makes it worse. You can usually avoid your account being charged off by at least letting them know you intend to pay and by at least making small payments as often as you can.
It’s much easier to get a paid charge off removed from your credit report than it is an unpaid charge off. When you dispute the charge off with the credit bureaus, they have 30 days to verify the account with the creditor. If the account is paid, many times the creditor will just ignore the verification request. They really only report charge off so that they can damage your credit hoping that it will turn make you want to pay them off.
2. Collections
Not only will creditors charge-off your account after a period of non-payment, they may also hire a third-party debt collector to attempt to collect payment from you. Your credit report may or may not be updated to reflect a collection status. Sometimes the debt collector places an entry on your credit report or the original creditor places a note on your report indicating the account is in collection status.3. Bankruptcy
Filing bankruptcy allows you to legally remove liability for some or all of your debts, depending on the type of bankruptcy you file. Your credit report will reflect each of the accounts you included in your bankruptcy. Even though the bankruptcy information can legally remain on your credit report for seven to 10 years, you can begin rebuilding your credit soon after your debts have been discharged.
4. Foreclosure
If you default on your mortgage loan, your lender will repossess your home and auction it off to recover the amount of the mortgage. This process is known as foreclosure. When your home is foreclosed it can severely damage your credit, limiting your ability to obtain new credit in the future. A foreclosure can remain on your credit report for seven years.
5. Tax liens
When you don't pay property taxes on your home or another piece of property, the government can seize the property and auction it off for the unpaid taxes. Even if your home is foreclosed because of a tax lien, you are still responsible for the mortgage loan. Non-payment of the mortgage will also hurt your credit. Unpaid tax liens can remain on your credit report for 15 years, while paid tax liens remain for 10 years.
6. Lawsuits or judgments
Some creditors may take you to court and sue you for a debt, if other collections fail. If the lawsuit is accurate and a judgment is entered against you, it can remain on your credit report for 7 years from the date of filing, even after you satisfy the judgment.
For information on how you can solve these issues as well as potentially remove them from your credit report please visit United Credit Education Services
Also be sure to review our complete FES Protection Plan
(read more)Credit Reporting 101
Let's take on the fundamentals of the credit reporting system. From the big three credit bureaus, TransUnion, Equifax and Experian, to your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, this article will help you navigate the credit report maze.
The credit reporting agencies - TransUnion, Equifax and Experian (formerly TRW) are the three national credit reporting agencies that keep records on consumers. The reporting agencies work with lenders, creditors, insurers and employers to update and distribute your information to the appropriate institutions. Here's an example of how the system works:
1. When you apply for a new credit card the creditor requests a copy of your financial history from the reporting agencies. This causes a "hard inquiry" to be recorded on your credit report.
2. The creditor uses your credit reports and scores along with income and debt information to determine what rates to offer.
3. You start to use the new credit card and the creditor reports your activities to the credit reporting agencies about every 30 days.
4. The credit reporting agencies update your credit report as they receive new information from creditors or lenders.
5. Your credit profile changes based on your financial activity. The next time you apply for a credit card or loan, the process repeats.
Your credit report - Your credit report is divided into six main sections: consumer information (address, birthday and employment), consumer statement, account histories, public records, inquiries and creditor contacts. When you open a new account, miss a payment or move, these sections are updated with new information. Old negative records will stay on your credit report for 7-10 years. Positive records can remain on your credit report longer. Not all creditors report to all three agencies and the agencies obtain their data independently so your reports from TransUnion, Equifax and Experian could be substantially different from each other. That's why it's important to check your three credit reports every 6-12 months to ensure that the information is accurate and up-to-date.
Correcting inaccuracies - Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, consumers are protected from having inaccurate information on their credit reports. If you find an inaccurate record on your report, try contacting the creditor or lender associated with the mark first. These companies can usually correct the mistake and send an update to the credit reporting agencies. If you can't make progress this way, you can also dispute the inaccuracy directly with the credit reporting agencies.
Working the system - Managing your credit and maintaing a good credit history can lead to better rates on major purchases. We recommend that you check your credit reports every 6-12 months or at least 3 months before a major purchase in order to guard against damaging inaccuracies and identity theft. Routine check-ups along with paying your bills on time, keeping your credit card balances below 35% of their limits and correcting any negative inaccuracies will help you maintain a healthy credit profile.

Medical bills are the leading cause of bankruptcy according to many financial sources. Unfortunately, many people neglect their medical bills without realizing the impact that those unpaid bills could have on their credit score.
How Medical Bills Can Hurt Your Credit
After you receive medical services, your physician or hospital will bill you for any portion that wasn’t covered by insurance. Just like any other bill, medical bills have a due date. If you don’t pay by the due date, your bill becomes past due. Hospitals will only send you so many past due notices before they give your account to a third-party debt collector to resume collection efforts.
When the debt collector receives your medical bill, one of the first things it will do is report the account to one or all of the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion). The medical collection account is considered a serious delinquency and can remain on your credit report for up to seven years, the maximum amount of time permitted by law.
Your credit score - the number creditors and lenders often use to approve your applications for new loans and credit - is based solely on information that’s in your credit report. Since having a collection account on your credit report indicates you have a seriously delinquency in your credit history, your credit score will drop when a new collection is added to your credit report. The more medical collections accounts you have, the lower your credit score will be.
Protect Your Credit from Medical Bills
One of the easiest ways to keep medical bills from impacting your credit score is to pay your bills when you receive them. If you can’t afford to make payment in full, contact the hospital’s billing department to make payment arrangements.
Even if you have health insurance, don’t assume that your insurance company will always handle bills in a timely manner. If you receive a bill that should have been covered by insurance, contact your insurance company to find out why the bill wasn’t paid. It could have been a simple oversight by hospital billing or the insurance claims department. Insurance companies often cover only a certain percentage of medical bills, so you might be responsible for some portion of medical debt after the insurance company has covered its part.
To find out whether you have unpaid medical bills out there, check your credit report.
To be doubly safe, you might contact the hospital or physician’s billing department to check the status of your account, especially if you’ve received any medical services within the past year. Sometimes, just because the medical bills aren’t on your credit report doesn’t mean they don’t exist. By contacting the medical provider, you’ll know for sure whether you have outstanding medical bills that could end up hurting your credit.

VR-Tech Marketing Group Opportunity
I wanted to talk a little bit about the opportunity to become an Independent Agent with VR-Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services. I am a former loan officer (10 years) and have worked with a lot of customers that were looking to get there credit repaired so they could either buy a home or refinance there current home. In todays market place and over the next several years we are going to see a lot of consumers looking to recover from the current economic crisis and in order to do so will need to fix there credit.There are a staggering number of people with bad credit that need this service to give them a fresh start. So the question is; if you’re not in the mortgage business or in real estate than how do I find customers?
In recent months there have been a lot of changes in the lending guild-lines regarding credit and over the next several years you are going to see additional changes in the credit score requirement to get a home loan. With that being said if you were to approach every loan officer or mortgage company as well as the real estate agents with this service they will respond. They know the changes that have been made or that are coming in the near future and if they don’t there in for a big surprises and will coming running to you with clients once they find out.
Besides talking with mortgage brokers or real estate companies, the people you see everyday are candidates for this process, all you have to do is hand them a business card and let the business card do the talking. My experience has been that when you hand someone a business card and it say's “Credit Repair” you are going to get one of two responses, either they say nothing or they start to tell you there problems with there credit scores, period!
Some of this people may not to anything immediately, but if you stay in contact with them they will eventually get tired of being denied and want to improve there lives and will enroll in your credit repair program.
This type of marketing I like to consider old school marketing. Old school marketing requires rubbing some skin, belly to belly. Part of your marketing needs to be talking with people face to face and part, networking on the internet. VR Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services program works great because you have a product that people need and want. Believe me, credit education and credit repair is going to play a major role in everybody’s lives as all type of situations require more and more for customers to have good credit. Not just lenders but, insurance companies. Utility companies, rentals,empolyers, and the list goes on and on.
So, the bottom line is you need to have a reputable company, you have to have a solid product and you have to have a solid customer base. VR Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services provides a solid business model and service, and the need for credit repair and credit education is enormous.

Are you looking to repair your Credit? Don't fall prey to Credit Repair Scams on the internet.

Boy, are you screwed! Just dig a hole and climb in and bury yourself!
The truth is that although the statement above is true, what about the laws that protect the consumer that requires the credit reporting agencies to verify the information they report? What is there process for verification? Is it verified just because the collection company say's you owe the money? What if you really owe the debt and the third collection company that bought your debt for pennies on the dollar can't verify that you owe the debt? Is it OK for them to continue to report it?
There seems to be a lot of information available that say's you can't clean-up (Opp’s, I forgot, clean your credit is a bad word) let’s re-phrase that, Credit Repair and Credit Restoration. That’s better; let's talk about “Credit Repair and Credit Restoration”.
Credit Repair and Credit Restoration is a process that involves the following;
Becoming aware of the issue, Recognizing the benefit, Making a commitment to change the way you handle your finances, Creating a plan, And finally following thru on that plan
Now if you have had bad credit for a while then you probably want to consult with a professional to help you start down the path of “Credit Repair and Credit Restoration” You may want to hire a Certified Credit Consultant to review your financial picture and see what changes can be made to help manage your finances. They can also help point out for you the long term financial benefit of correcting your credit so you can benefit from reduced interest rates on your mortgage, car, credit cards and any other items that might be affected by your credit rating.
What about the information on my credit report? What about that collection account or charge off that has been on my credit report for the last 5 years you have no record of but the collection company says it's yours? According to the FTC it can't be legally removed. And since they said it your, I guess it must be. Not true! If the collection company can't verify that it is yours, the credit reporting agency MUST remove it; even if it is yours!
The credit reporting business, a billion dollar a year business, has done such a poor job of accurately reporting customers information or informing customers of ongoing changes that may help the consumer, that the laws allows for unverifiable information to be deleted. If a customer has information on there credit reports and it can’t be verified then the credit reporting agencies must remove it, whether it belongs to you or not, PERIOD!
This is the premise that most credit repair companies work under. They know that the credit reporting agencies and the collection agencies have not done what they are being paid (billions of dollars a year) to do. They know if the Fair Credit Reporting Act law are applied correctly in the dispute process that the chances are that information will be deleted whether it is accurate or not. Is this wrong or immoral? The question needs to be is OK for the credit reporting agencies to report unverifiable information. With the profits the credit reporting agencies make each year you would think they could implement a process that provides accurate reporting

January, 26 2007 - There is a staggering number of American’s with inaccurate data on there credit reports and most are not aware!Most Americans today are not aware of the information that is reporting on there credit reports. The process for evaluating your personal credit
reports is cumbersome and if you are not familiar with reading credit reports can be extremely frustrating and overwhelming.
Most people find out about issues after they have the need to get financed for something and then have to try fixing the issues in a short period of
time or deal with the hand they are dealt from the lenders.
So what can we do to prevent this last minute fiasco? Unfortunately the process is not easy and requires a real commitment from the consumer to become
educated in all areas of credit and credit reporting. But once you start to educate your self the pay off can be huge.
Monitoring your credit reports on a regular base is the starting point and you will start to familiarize yourself with how to read your credit reports
and what type of information is reporting.
The next step is determining if you have issues what the next best course of action is. This is the tricky part. Sometimes certain actions you take will
penalize you more even though you might think you are doing the right thing. That is why it is important to consult with a professional before taking any action to correct any adverse information that maybe on your reports.
When you have made the commitment to start reviewing your credit reports and you determined you may have some issues make sure you consult with a qualified profession to advise and assist you with the correction or credit repair process.

Why start a home based business?
There are several reasons why a person should start a home based business. But the question really needs to be answered by the person who may be considering starting a home based business as to why they want to.
Here are some of the obvious reasons:
Tax benefits Be your own boss Earn as much income as you want Develop residual income Set your own working hours
There are many types of home based business programs available. If you search on Google “Home Based Business”, you will pull up 466,000,000 websites.
Everything from Home Based Business for Moms, MLM’s, Affiliate Marketing Programs, Home Based Business Books, the list goes on and on. Some of this information is good; some is just common sense information. You can also pay a wide range of cost to get involved with a company or organization.
The best advice I can give you if you are interested in starting a home based business is to find something that you are passionate about, find a company that you can align yourself with, and then do your homework on that company. Make sure that the company can do what they say, and have done in the past, all that they have promised for there customers and representatives.
My preference since 1999 has been the MLM model. I started out in 1999 in the credit repair business. I have now been involved in that industry for the past 8 years. It has been a joy to be able to provide people with a service that has the potential to really change there lives.

Credit Education is one of the most lessons we can provide to our children. It amazes me that to this day our children are not taught the importance of credit in our school systems. Many of us as adults had to learn the hard way the importance of credit and maintaining a good credit score.
In America our financial success or lack of can in many cases can be contributed directly to our credit profile. I have been in the financial industry for the last 8 years and it amazes me how little people understand or know about the credit industry. It almost makes me wonder that if someone has good credit are they just lucky? It certainly wasn’t because they new how the credit industry works. If some had bad credit were they just unlucky?
I realize there are many reasons for a person to have bad credit; loss of a job, medical issues (with no insurance), divorce, and the list goes on and on. But in some case credit education may have helped the situation.
The bottom line is that I have seen so many good people be denied the opportunity to achieve a higher degree of financial success do to a lack of credit education. Something has to be done to educate or the youth in this country to try to prevent them from having the same financial struggles we may have had or are currently experiencing do to a lack of financial and credit education. I believe that it starts at home. When I was growing up in the 60's and 70's, finances and credit scores where not a topic of discussion around the dinner table. I had to learn the hard way.
Today things have changed as far as the types of things that can be discussed with your children. Kids today are a lot more aware of or are exposed to a lot more things thru the media. I don’t believe it is a good idea to shelter our children from these types of topics. Teaching our children the importance of credit and financial responsibility is one of the most important things we can teach our children.
Our school systems as well need to help by offering if not making mandatory some type of classes that deal specifically with the credit industry, credit or personal finance.
If you are experiencing credit or financial problems it has to be a family effort to help resolve the situation. If not, what ever you are doing well not work. All parties, wife, husband and children need to understand that there has to be a change in the way finances are being handled so that credit rating can be restored to a level that will make life easier for everyone. By including all family members then perhaps this will help everyone to learn and understand the importance of credit and personal finances.

I wanted to talk a little bit about the opportunity to become an Independent Agent with VR-Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services. I am a former loan officer (10 years) and have worked with a lot of customers that were looking to get there credit repaired so they could either buy a home or refinance there current home. In todays market place and over the next several years we are going to see a lot of consumers looking to recover from the current economic crisis and in order to do so will need to fix there credit.
There are a staggering number of people with bad credit that need this service to give them a fresh start. So the question is; if you’re not in the mortgage business or in real estate than how do I find customers?
In recent months there have been a lot of changes in the lending guild-lines regarding credit and over the next several years you are going to see additional changes in the credit score requirement to get a home loan.

They know the changes that have been made or that are coming in the near future and if they don’t there in for a big surprises and will coming running to you with clients once they find out.
Besides talking with mortgage brokers or real estate companies, the people you see everyday are candidates for this process, all you have to do is hand them a business card and let the business card do the talking. My experience has been that when you hand someone a business card and it say's “Credit Repair” you are going to get one of two responses, either they say nothing or they start to tell you there problems with there credit scores, period!
Some of these people may not to anything immediately, but if you stay in contact with them they will eventually get tired of being denied and want to improve there lives and will enroll in your credit repair program.
This type of marketing I like to consider old school marketing. Old school marketing requires rubbing some skin, belly to belly. Part of your marketing needs to be talking with people face to face and part, networking on the internet. VR Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services program works great because you have a product that people need and want. Believe me, credit education and credit repair is going to play a major role in everybody’s lives as all type of situations require more and more for customers to have good credit. Not just lenders but, insurance companies. Utility companies, rentals,empolyers, and the list goes on and on.
So, the bottom line is you need to have a reputable company, you have to have a solid product and you have to have a solid customer base. VR Tech Marketing Group and United Credit Education Services provides a solid business model and service, and the need for credit repair and credit education is enormous.

Two of the big three Experian and Equifax have decided that there billion dollar a year corporations need more profit margin. Starting in 2007 the Big Two (Experian and Equifax) have decided that charging once for a credit pull when a client applies for a home loan is not enough.
The normal process for an applicant applying for a home loan was to have there credit pulled by the mortgage broker then the file would be submitted to for an approval with a national lender. The lender would than in many cases re-issue the credit on there end to verify the report. The cost for re issuing the credit will now be somewhere from $8.00 to as much as $200.00 to have the report re issued and will be passed on to the broker which ultimately will be passed on to the consumer.
In a case where you have a marginal borrower do to credit rating where you may have to shop the loan to multiple lenders this could be a cost issue that will limit the possibility of either the consumer getting the best possible loan program or knocking them right out of the market place.
Equifax according to CCNMoney.com had total revenues of 1,443.4 Billion in 2006 and Experian came in at 3.1 Billon. With this type of profits one must wonder when enough is enough, especially in a market place that is already struggling with lender increasing underwriting guild lines and the subprime market in trouble.
Unfortunately, once again the most effected will the consumers with margin credit. The only ones that stand to gain from this new price increase are Experian and Equifax.

Most people that have credit challenges just don’t know what to do about there credit score or feel that there is no way out and over time learn to live with there credit score situation and even become to accept the live style that poor credit affords them.
Many changes have been made to assist or help the consumers with there credit repair if they have credit issues, but from my own personal experience it can be a daunting task trying to correct inaccurate information or out dated information on your credit report and increase your credit score.
In 2002 I was a certified Instructor for Central Michigan University and taught credit repair classes to the UAW on site at the Kansas City and St. Louis Assembly plants for Ford Motor Company. The training that I received made it very apparent that trying to solve these issues required a level of training the average person just does not have. Trying to deal with your creditors and the Credit Reporting Agencies is simply a nightmare.
In an effort to help people resolve there credit issues and increase there credit score, after doing research on the different companies claiming to have a credit repair process, I have teamed up with VRTech Marking Group and Third Eye Inc. VRTech Marking Group and Third Eye Inc. offers the client a very hands on approach to assure the best results in the shortest period of time and the opportunity to continue in the process until the credit report and scores are maximized as well as first class education regarding maintaining a good credit score. Unfortunately the system that has been put in place by the FCRA is not a system that is user friendly for the common consumer to navigate.
The advantage of hiring VRTech Marking Group and Third Eye Inc. to assist you in your credit restoration and increase your credit score is you have a company that has been very successful over the past several years in helping thousands of clients increase there credit rating and improve there quality of life.
The client once they in role in the credit repair process is assigned an on-line account that helps them keep track 24/7 on the results of there credit repair process and is a notification process for missing documents that are required by the credit reporting agencies to update your credit file. The company even does follow up phone calls with the client to make sure they keep up to date with there requirements. It is really a proactive process.

United Credit Education Services has done it again. There already popular Credit Repair and Credit Education program has just got better.

The recent change to the name of the company along with the addition of this new product are in line with the companies mission statement "To provide first class Credit Repair but more importantly educate the client on the important aspects of Credit thru Credit Education".
The new name United Credit Education Services and the launch of Credit Coach are scheduled for early February.
In my experience as a Certified Credit Consultant the biggest problem I have encountered with clients is there lack of understanding of the credit industry as well as there lack of understanding of the process for credit repair. In a recent interview with Sue Griffin (Director of Distributor Support), Sue outlined the credit repair process. If you are interested in hearing this interview go to my internet broadcast radio show on TalkShoe (see link below).
There is also a interview with Anthony Stroman on the importance of credit in today's market place. Specifically, in recent months there have been many changes in the mortgage industry as far as credit score requirements by lenders. This trend is expected to continue through 2007. Persons that are looking to buy new homes in 2007 will more than ever want to be aware of the credit situation and plan far enough in advance to prepare for any credit issues that need to be resolved prior to submitting application for a home loan.

(read more)Mortgages News and Credit Repair
The lenders today have upped the ante on getting a home loan. Recent events on in the hosing market and on Wall Street, have caused the national lenders to take a hard look at there underwriting guild lines and whether or not there guild lines will satisfy there investors.
A recent report by the CRL (Center for Responsible Lending) (www.responsiblelending.org/issues/mortgage/reports/page.jsp?itemID=31214551) states that 2.2 million borrowers face foreclosure on subprime home loans. This translates to $164 billion due to foreclosure in the subprime mortgage market. CRL report also stated that 1 out of 5 subprime loans written in 2005 thru 2006 will fail.
With this type of prediction being made it is not surprising that a lot of subprime lenders are now increasing there requirements for subprime loans. Increased credit score requirements as well as changes to the types of loan programs that will be available.
Credit Repair and Credit Education will be the key for new first time home owners that are coming into the market place that have had credit issues in the past. It wasn't that long ago when a borrower with a 580 credit score, no reserves, some late pays and no rental history could get approved for a 100% financing with out any problem. Today underwriters are scrutinizing these types of files and although this type of borrower may today still be able to go to a limited number of lenders and get approved the chances are that 3 months from now it most likely will not be the case.
The ideal borrower in the near future will have a minimum credit score of approximately 620 with a credit profile for the last 6 months to a year.
What can we do to help - Lenders and Real estate agents need to get ahead of the curve when working with potential buyers. Credit seminars to educate borrowers are greatly needed. Get the people that want to buy and that have credit issues into a good credit repair program that offers credit education as well.
The current trend has been for a long time real estate agent find interested borrowers who are now scurrying to find a loan with no prep time for credit issues or credit education. It is not the real estate community fault, I have found in many case borrowers are not willing to to attend an educational forum to learn about the impact of credit do to other obligations. The truth of the matter is this could be the most important obligation they could make.
United Credit Education Services is committed to helping clients, real estate agents and lenders help educate there borrowers and improve there credit rating through educational tools as well as good old fashioned credit repair.
If your are a mortgage broker or a loan officer find out how you can utilize these educational tools for your subprime borrowers and provide them with much needed education as well as the opportunity of home ownership.
If you would like a tour of the back office to see the type of information and tracking mechanism that the client, agent or loan officer will have, please call me and i will walk you through the system.

Weight Loss: The Roll of Soy Protein in our Diet
A message from...
Cindy McAsey-Marketing Strategies Coach
Benefits of Soy Protein Below are notes from a seminar that Dr. Nasr did in Milwaukee Wisconsin on the benefits of soy. For the particular soy that Dr. Nasr recommends click on Soy Options
Dr. Nasr has a B.S. in Agronomy; M.S. in Biochemistry of anti-oxidants and a PH.D. in Pharmacognosy(science of bio-active products). He received his M.D. from Rush Medical College in Chicago, followed by Internal Medicine and Cardiology fellowships from Chicago Medical School. He is a member of the American College of Nutraceuticals and the American College of Preventive Medicine and is Director of the Medical Care & Diagnostic Center, Lake Villa, Il 847-356-9009. Dr. Nasr uses Shaklee Soy exclusively because it has the very best and most complete soy protein and isoflavone content. You can feel so very good about Shaklee’s soy protein, and how we can help so many people who are looking for ways to improve their health.
1. Optiflora and Soy Protein increase the absorption of protein, decrease gas and discomfort and decrease cholesterol by 23%
2. Sixty (60) studies have been conducted showing soy protein increases bone density more than just Calcium Magnesium does.
3. Two studies show that soy and vitamin E, together, decrease LDL (bad cholesterol) by 40% and that is 17% greater decrease than Zocor and Lipitor
4. Four studies show that soy protein inhibits oxidation of LDL (bad cholesterol) by 40%. When cholesterol oxidizes, it becomes “sticky” and in this condition is when it can attach to blood vessel walls.
5. Soy prevents gall stones. It doesn’t dissolve them but it prevents them.
6. Soy prevents kidneys from damage. Lots of animal protein may be hard on the kidneys, but soy protein protects the kidneys
7. French fries at major fast food establishments are crispy. That is a value for the store. Some french fries are coated with a protein substance that when combined with the sugar in the potato and then heated, give them added crispness. Unfortunately that combination of sugar, protein and high heated fat produces a carcinogen. Probably a good idea to avoid all French fries.
8. Shaklee’s protein includes valuable protein and isoflavones that are not present in other soy proteins produced with heat or chemicals. Shaklee’s low heat - water wash process keeps the isoflavones in the protein. Isoflavones are natural cancer fighting ingredients that occur naturally in soy.
9. Soy’s protein and Isoflavones inhibit the mutated cell’s ability to make an enzyme that would cause the cell it to reproduce.
10. Soy inhibits the cancer cell from making the body provide it with additional blood supply (additional blood supply is called angiogenesis).
11. Soy increases the killing effect of the white blood cells (phagocytosis).
12. Soy’s amino acid Lysine when combined with Vitamin C decreases Colon Cancer by 90%.
13. The flavanoids (like those in Shaklee’s Flavomax) when combined with Soy Protein are synergistic (they work even better together) and decrease breast cancer 10 fold.
14. Beta carotene (like those in Shaklee’s CarotoMax) when combined with Soy Protein and Calcium with Vitamin D are 10 times as effective at preventing cancer cells from getting an addition blood supply.
15. Women in the Orient get about 80mg of Isoflavones a day….women in US and Europe get about 1.0 mg. That’s an 80% negative difference for US and Europe.
16. Soy protein helps the differentiated cell (bad cell) convert back to a normal cell.
Dr. Nasr also listed the several forms of protein and the length of their chain of Amino Acids. The shorter the chain, the more quickly the Amino Acids can be absorbed and utilized
1. Soy has the shortest chain and takes less than an hour ....Shaklee's Soy Options
2. Fish is next.
3. Chicken takes about 4 hours.
4. Beef takes about 5 hours.
5. Pork takes about 6-8 hours to digest
KEYWORDS: Soy Protein, Weight Loss, Supplements

Trying to loose weight, but SICK of drinking water all the time?

Trying to loose weight, but SICK of drinking water all the time?
Losing weight doesn't have to mean all water all the time. In fact, drinking our Cinch Energy Tea will not only quench your thirst-- it naturally increases your energy levels with T-Lift. T-lift is Shaklee's unique blend of red, white, and green teas. This high quality green tea is as simple to drink as pure water-- the mix easily blends into hot or cold water for a refreshing burst of energizing flavor.
In addition to its delicious flavor, drinking green tea offers a host of other benefits. Green tea contains high levels of polyphenol, which is associated with health benefits from normalizing blood pressure to lowering cancer risk. The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database lists many of these, but the only benefit labeled "likely effective" is mental alertness, probably due to the caffeine content. Future research will likely clarify whether or not any of the phenols have disease-fighting effects.
Green tea is often associated with calorie-burning properties because it contains EGCG, which increases the body's rate of thermogenesis, or heat production. This indicates that green tea may help move along the metabolic process, means if you're sitting at your desk drinking green tea you may be burning more calories than if you were sitting at your desk drinking pure water. In one study of EGCG, energy expenditure was compared in men who were given green tea extract versus caffeine or plain water. The green tea extract caused a 4% boost in metabolism. The amount of extract given was approximately the amount reported to be in a cup of green tea.
If you enjoy drinking green tea and are watching your weight, you might already be getting a small boost in metabolism, but Cinch Energy Tea's patented blend of red, green, and white teas is truly unique. The next time you drink from your cup of hot or cold Cinch Energy Tea, it should taste a little sweeter knowing it's helping you fight cancer, normalizing your blood pressure, and even helping you melt away excess pounds.

Obesity in America is at an all time high. Everyone that has ever experienced being a few pounds of extra weight knows just how tough it can be to shed those extra pounds.

She's 87 years old and look at her dance!
She's awesome isn't she... I know when I saw that video I thought gosh that could be me down the road dancing with my grandson. (who is just a baby now) Bottomline we all need something or something to inspire us to make good choices about our health.
The primary concern of overweight and obesity is one of health and not appearance.

Your weight loss is directly influenced by the way you think and feel. The more you can remain positive and motivated, the more success you're likely to have. Here are three great ways to stay focused on your weight loss success:
Form a support circle. This includes your family, friends, coworkers and your doctor. It's pretty safe to assume that these people want to help, but they might not really know how. So, be patient while they learn the ways that are most helpful to you. One key element of getting the support you need is to be specific...and ask for the help you decide you really need. Think it over. Focus on the behavior that you want the person to exhibit—or to change—rather than asking for kindness, understanding or sensitivity. Make your communication clear, and you're much more likely to get the help you need.
Keep track of your progress. Weigh yourself periodically. And each day write down a day's complete eating and any physical activity you've done. This is both a great way to feel proud of your accomplishments and a helpful means of spotting any potential problems with your weight-loss program, should they arise. Any time you visit your doctor, bring along your daily notes to share with him or her.
Reward yourself early and often. Changing your lifestyle takes motivation, and although feeling better about yourself is the biggest reward of all, sometimes you might need a little something extra to motivate you. So make sure you reward yourself once you reach a goal, whether it be completing a 10-minute walk or losing 10 pounds. Some of the rewards you need are psychological—give yourself a "pat on the back" for a job well done, even if your new lifestyle becomes "second nature" over time. But don't feel shy about rewarding yourself with new clothes or other personal pampering, either—you've earned it! Part of staying positive is dealing with the negative.
A positive attitude and good motivation will get you started, but it's easy to fall into unrealistic expectations that could derail your efforts.
Here are a couple of "can't win" weight loss thought patterns to look out for:
"It's all or nothing." This attitude tempts you to think that foods are either good or bad, healthy or unhealthy. Just one slipup, and you could view yourself as a failure. Instead, expect mistakes as part of weight control. It's better to have them and recover quickly than to have no plan for dealing with them when they occur.
"Nothing but negative." It's easy to make a mountain out of a molehill. Miss one opportunity for increased physical activity, and the thought could pop up that you're "right back where you started," ignoring all the work you've already done.
Focus on the good work you have done, and look ahead to more of it.
"Don't worry, be happy." These thinkers have the opposite reaction from the ones above: they're always going to do better next week. This may be optimistic, positive thinking, but it often lacks a plan for making it happen. Plans beat platitudes, every day.
"This is it." Sometimes you may feel like you have found the "right" program, the "right" doctor, or that this is exactly the "right" time for success. Unfortunately, weight control isn't a one-shot effort. Think long-term: seeing your doctor regularly, making physical activity a part of your life, and, rather than just dieting, changing your eating habits for life

Weight Loss Supplements: Is your weight loss product safe?
A message from...
Cindy McAsey- Mom w/family and a farm full of animals ~ chasing em til I am 90
Is your Weight Loss Product Safe? Lets face it we are what we eat...
One of the reasons I feel compeled to write about this today is the recent news of the slip up from current FDA inspections in peanut factories. You would think if it's regulated by the FDA it would be safe right? Well if you have seen the news reports you know over 15 people have died and many more are very sick. Let me ask you this do you know how safe your weight loss product is? How many recalls have there been in the last several years on weight loss products? Sad part is weight loss products aren't even regulated by the FDA, so if the company that manufacturers it doesn't have a high quality control standard ya never know what your putting into your body is safe.
Our Secret Manufacturer has a 50 year history dedicated to the development and marketing of safe and effective products, but in fact, safety is there first consideration in development of all products. As caretakers of scientific integrity and guardians of product safety, Shaklee scientists are charged with making product ingredient decisions using safety as a strategic and critical decision driver.
In this short video Cindy Lathum explains why you can feel safe using Shaklee Products.
Fundamentally, Shaklee Scientists are the architects and advocates for Shaklee’s commitment to health and safety for each and every product and program marketed by Shaklee. Their scientific team made up of Health Sciences, Research, and Product Development, with the help of our Scientific Advisory Board members, evaluates published scientific literature, evidence-based reports, and the known pharmacology of potential ingredients in order to evaluate the safety of dietary supplement product concepts. Next, they identify optimal ingredient sources, dosage levels, and delivery forms to further ensure product safety and efficacy.
Finally they conduct usage trials and controlled scientific research studies to help establish product safety. And of course, they conduct post market surveillance to monitor for potential adverse events and potential safety issues. Shaklee has worked hard to earn consumers’ trust by conducting due diligence and emphasizing consumer safety first, avoiding potentially unsafe ingredients, and continuing to champion solid scientifically backed product choices rather than risky trends.
In the May 2004 issue of Consumer Reports magazine, "Dangerous Supplements," 12 ingredients in dietary supplements were targeted as unsafe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. And it should come as no surprise that Shaklee has never used any of these potentially unsafe ingredients in any of our dietary supplements at any time, in any market.
Shaklee nutritional product safety is a direct result of their commitment to scientific integrity, our mission of developing products designed and tested to meet real world needs, and their technology that enables them to predictably build safety directly into each and every product, time after time. Shaklee products consistently measure up to the highest safety standards and they are proud to stand behind the very safest science-based products in the business with a 100% money back guarantee.
Bottomline before you decide to start a weight loss program, be sure to check out the manufacturer of the products your considering and make sure they are safe.

Weight Loss: Are all the good time holiday foods tempting you away from your normal healthy weight loss diet?
A message from...
Cindy McAsey- Mom w/family and a farm full of animals ~ chasing em til I am 90
Lets face it we are what we eat.
Did you know the average American carries up to 40 lbs of excess weight in their intestines? Kind a scary isn't it. In order for your colon to asorb all the good nutrients you put into your body it's a good idea to do a body cleanse first. An excellent body cleanse will make you not feel to hot while you are doing it, but once complete you will will feel renewed and much healthier.
Sir William Lane (authority on medical matters) say's it best... If we are to have optimum health and long life we must control our consumption, assimilation and elimination. It is possible, in a greater or lesser degree, to control all three. Of course this will involve some work, inconvenience and expense. We only have one life, there is no spare for that! It all boils down to one question: ‘What is good health and long life worth?' Someone said: ‘One in a thousand care to take the trouble, the others let the trouble take them.'
My question for you... Are you gonna take the trouble to get rid of the excess in your intestines? or will you let to go because you want to avoid a few days of discomfort and eventually have Major Problems?
Our Barefoot Secret Company offers several state-of-the-art cleanse and detox products to help you rid your body of toxic chemicals, rejuvenate your liver, cleanse your colon, build up your intestinal microflora and much more.
Liver Cleanser The liver is the largest internal organ in the body and plays a crucial role in maintaining normal metabolism and detoxifying the body. Our Liver Cleanser provides nutritional support for healthy liver function. This product has a proprietary blend of six botanical ingredients with antioxidant and bile flow enhancing properties, which combine to protect and stimulate the body’s natural ability to maintain healthy liver cells.
The Liver Cleanser includes the extracts of:
- milk thistle seed
- schizandra chinensis seed
- a plant native to China and used for over 2000 years to increase the amount of detoxifying enzymes in the liver
- Reishi mushroom
- known for its antioxidant properties
- dandelion
- tumeric
- artichoke

The healthy body contains trillions of friendly microorganisms. A vast majority live in the colon and are referred to as intestinal floral or microflora. At least 400 kinds of microorganisms are found in the gastrointestinal tract; this amounts to about three pounds of bacteria in the intestines at all times.
Their most important role is keeping undesirable bacteria in check.
Common Causes of Bacteria Imbalance
- The most common cause of imbalance between good and bad bacteria is the use of antibiotics.
- age
- poor diet
- low fiber intake
- oral contraceptives
- medications such as aspirin and corticosteroids
- stress
- high sugar intake
The two-product system supplies both acidophilus and bifidus. The first product is a prebiotic that comes in powder form which makes for a pleasant-tasting drink mix and provides nutrients, which selectively feed the friendly bacteria. The second product—the probiotic is a unique patented, seamless capsule that will withstand the shipping and storing process and the acidic environment of the stomach, guaranteeing the delivery of 500 million live beneficial microflora to the intestines.
Using our patented colon care system to build your microflora to optimum levels can help improve a host of conditions from a wide range of digestive discomforts like indigestion*, heart burn*, diarrhea*, constipation*, gas and stomach bloating*. A healthy colon care aid more serious ailments like colitis*, autoimmune diseases*, and Candida*. It can also help improve skin conditions like acne*, psoriasis*, eczema* and cold sores*, and it can even help conditions like bad breath*, headaches* and ADD*.
Taking our Acidophilus product everyday will help you experience a whole NEW LEVEL OF HEALTH! Remember, you are as healthy as your colon. It can be a cesspool of toxins poisoning your system, or it can be a garden where the vitality of life flows to your entire being, creating a state of health and vitality.

No colon cleanse program would be complete without our famous Herbal-Laxative formula. Originally formulated in 1917, Herbal-Laxative has been used effectively by millions of people over the years. It’s designed to encourage a mild cleansing action to aid the body’s natural process. Herbal-Laxative features a blend of 9 herbs, including senna leaf, which has been used for more than 3,000 years as a natural laxative.
The herbs used in Herbal-Laxative are not in any way related to the artificial chemical laxatives promoted on television. Those products often irritate the tissue and pull fluid into the bowels forcing it to eject its contents. Artificial laxatives like these can weaken the organs and may causes dependencies, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance.
Instead, Herbal-Laxative naturally stimulates contraction of muscles with the colon. This allows for better removal of trapped waste and shortens the transit time, giving toxins less time to harm healthy colon tissues and be reabsorbed and circulated throughout the body. Herbal-Laxative can help improve regularity, reduce body odor*, clear acne*, relieve constipation, expel gas from the stomach and intestines, and normalizes the colon function while it nourishes the bowel.

Blood Cleanser As far back as 3000 B.C., the Babylonians understood the versatile benefits of garlic. It was well accepted as a medicine for a wide range of applications, including respiratory tract infections, skin disorders, parasitic infections and as an antibiotic and antimicrobial agent.
Today, numerous scientific papers also report on garlic's ability to cleanse the blood and ameliorate heavy metal toxicity, especially against such neurotoxin metals as mercury and cadmium, while another papers described the use of garlic in the treatment of hypoglycemia, intestinal disorders and a wide variety of other medical conditions.
However, not all garlic supplements are the same. Most of the processing methods used today, including crushed garlic powders, garlic oil capsules and aged odorless extracts, reduce or eliminate the allicin content. Allicin is the major active component of garlic and is needed to deliver the many benefits of garlic.
Barefoot Secret Company's Garlic Compound utilizes a unique, gentle; temperature controlled drying process, which retains ALL the allicin. The garlic is cooled to a level that temporarily inactivates the enzyme that forms allicin, and it’s only activated when the supplement is digested, providing the maximum benefits of garlic.
Our Garlic Compound also has a dual-odor control formulation. Garlic breath” is due to garlic odor from the stomach. Our Garlic tablet doesn’t break down until it is past the stomach and into the small intestine. “In addition, it contains a sweet-smelling blend of spearmint and rosemary extract for effective odor control
Get Educated! Discover gently processed, allicin rich garlic.
Alfalfa is Arabic for the “Father of All Foods”. The roots of this amazing herb grow very deep into the ground bringing up vital nutrients and trace minerals from deep within the earth. Alfalfa is known as a natural diuretic, body cleanser and detoxifier. It stimulates bile flow, and binds with heavy metals and removes them from your system. It also helps protect from radiation and helps control body odor.
Besides its highly beneficial attributes as a body cleanser and detoxifier, alfalfa also has many other benefits. According to David Mulvain, M.S. Nutrionist, alfalfa also aids in digestion, is anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic*, anti-bacterial. It helps aid in the healing of ulcers, gout, heel spurs, upset stomach, allergies and back disc repair. It even regulates blood sugar levels and helps lower cholesterol. It’s truly an amazing herb! Only the finest quality alfalfa is used in Shaklee’s Alfalfa supplement. Grown without pesticides, herbicides, or inorganic fertilizers, it provides the highest quality alfalfa available on the market today.
Get Educated! Discover Premium quality alfalfa, grown in California with no fungicides, bacteriosides, synthetic hormones, growth regulators, or chemicals.
We encourage you to take some time to cleanse your body. Consider giving your body a rest from solid foods for a day and drink liquids instead. Use Barefoot Secret Company's cleanse and detox products for at least a month for best results, and see how much better, more alive and healthy you feel. It’ll do your body good!
Cleanse first then put the "Good Stuff" in your Body.
How do you find the good stuff in the grocery store? Shop the outside isles! The outsides isles are generally where the fresh and frozen foods are. The food with fewer preservatives.
Why Your Colon Loves Winter A great reason to celebrate colder weather and shorter days: They usher in visits from a family that brings color to your dinners and good tidings to your colon. We’re talking about the "Brassica" family -- a group of winter favorite veggies including; broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and cabbage. They’re slightly bitter, but that’s because you can actually taste their colon-cancer-fighting compounds called isothiocyanates.
Colon Cancer Blockers Research shows that the isothiocyanates in Brassica veggies may actively block potential carcinogens, putting the kibosh on not only colorectal cancer but prostate cancer cells as well. Brassica vegetables are also a good source of folic acid, phenolics, carotenoids, selenium, and vitamin C. (Did you know? About 1 in 3 cancers may be related to what people eat. Get some facts on diet do’s and don’ts for cancer prevention.)
Eating a diverse diet that includes 5 servings of vegetables per day can make you as much as 4 years younger than what you really are.

Weight Loss Supplements: Take Control of your Health before it takes Control of you!
A message from...
Cindy McAsey-Mon/w husband, 2 kids and a farm full of animals ~ chasing them til I'm 90
Take control of your health Before it takes control of you, and your finances
Elevated insulin and blood sugar levels have been linked to a number of serious health issues, such as vision and circulatory problems and impaired kidney function. Fortunately, there are simple preventative measures that you can take now to help retain normal blood sugar levels and stay healthy ? and being healthy can mean fewer costly medical expenses. As part of the Shaklee commitment toward a better, healthier tomorrow, we?ll help you every step of the way with useful tips and product suggestions.
Five tips to retaining a normal blood sugar level
1. Achieve a healthy weight
In a properly functioning body, insulin, a hormone made by your pancreas, helps transport glucose into the cells of the body so it can be use for energy. However, in overweight individuals, cells of the body can become resistant to insulin's action. One of the best ways to retain normal blood sugar levels is to achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Try our Weight Management Plan, an effective and clinically tested program powered by leucine, an amino acid that helps preserve your muscle while you lose body fat.
2. Eat foods with a low glycemic index
When you're constantly on the run, it's easy to forget about giving your body the proper nutrition it needs. You may find yourself reaching for a bag of cookies, which most likely have a high glycemic index (GI), meaning the carbohydrates in those cookies are quickly broken down to glucose and released into the bloodstream. This quick release can then lead to a sharp rise in blood sugar, followed by a sharp drop in blood sugar leaving you with feelings of low energy. Help retain normal blood sugar levels by eating foods that have a low GI. Meal Replacement Shakes and Meal-in-a-Bars are a great alternative because they taste great, fill you up and give your body the sustained energy it needs.
3. Enhance your health
So, you're at a healthy weight and your blood sugar is where you want it to be. What else? How about the health of your heart, brain, digestive system, and other body parts? Keep the healthy momentum going and remember to take your vitamins and minerals on a daily basis. Basic Vitamin Package is the perfect supplement for daily nutritional support. Its 80 bio-optimized, clinically proven nutrients that enhance immunity, protect your DNA, and help manage your stress. It contains more than 20 antioxidant compounds and essential vitamins and minerals you need for a comprehensive approach to health, wellness, and vitality.
4. Additional botanical support
Certain minerals and botanicals have been scientifically shown to help retain normal blood sugar levels. These include banaba leaf extract, which helps stimulate glucose uptake, and chromium, a mineral essential to insulin function. Glucose Regulator contains these plus other normal blood sugar supporting ingredients including magnesium, vanadium, zinc, taurine, and alpha lipoic acid.
5. Stay active
Last, but not least, stay active. Try to get in 30 minutes of regular physical activity, such as brisk walking, bicycling or swimming most days of the week. If your busy schedule won't allow that, break your activity into sessions; 10 minutes in the morning, 10 in the afternoon, and a short 10 minute walk in the evening. Being more active will not only make you feel good, it will enhance your body's ability to use insulin and help you maintain a healthy weight.

Weight Loss, Supplement, Vitamin, and Protein Facts
A message from...
Cindy McAsey-The Barefoot Mentor
What You Should know about Vitamins and Soy Protein
When you buy vitamins, or better, food supplements, make sure the company doesn’t use chemicals and has cold process manufacturing. Heat kills the natural enzymes.
When starting a new regimen of adding food supplements, some people might break out (acne) for a couple of days or not feel well. The addition of nutritious soy protein to the diet can cause skin problems as well, along with urinary sting, and constipation. This is all part of the normal elimination process. This should be temporary. Ask your doctor if you have questions or concerns about this.
Remember you can't make up for a poor diet by simply adding vitamin supplements.
From The Seattle Times: You may be surprised that China is actually one of the largest exporters of many drugs and vitamins. The United States does not require country-of-origin labels for any of our drugs or food supplements. China's regulators also have financial interest in the industries they are supposed to regulate and inspect. Barefoot Secret Company that has invested over $250 million in exhaustive research, clinical trials, and quality tests on their food supplements. This company is NUMBER ONE in the good ol' USA for nutritional supplements! Food Supplements - Made in USA
Changing brands can change your life. The Landmark Nutritional Supplement Study obtained from Berkeley's School of Public Health is an independent study done on long term supplement users, non-supplements users and Shaklee independent distributors using only the products they distribute.
From this independent study a new supplement package was developed and tested again.. View the 12 clinical studies.
Bottomline if you give your body the proper supplements including Soy Protein, only take in what your metabolism needs loosing weight isn't a problem.

Anti-Aging Tonic Testimonials....
For the last 6 months I have been suffering from chronic severe pain in my left foot which has been diagnosed as a plantar fasiculitis. This is an inflammation of a ligament which runs from the heel towards the large toe. The pain has been so intense that for the last 3 months I have been using a cane to walk. I had to buy new shoes and to put my foot in a cast every night while sleeping. I can't take anti-inflammatory's or pain meds so I just had to suffer.
After the reading the information about anti-aging tonic, I ordered some and began taking one teaspoon a day last Monday.
I couldn't believe it but last Wednesday (after 2 days!), I put down my cane as I could now walk without severe pain. By Friday I had very little pain and today I have NO pain. Just one week and I am pain free. Unbelievable! For any skeptics out there, all I can say is it worked for me and if you have chronic pain you should try this.
Rick Navarro, Ph.D.
Please share this with others who may be struggling with autoimmune diseases, especially Sarcoidosis, an auto immune disease that, in my case, caused long bone (not joint) pain and most troubling, breathing difficulties. The disease caused calcium deposits called granulomas to stiffen my lungs, so constricted airways was not the trouble, it was inflamed lung tissue that did not want to expand as it should resulting in shortness of breath as well as coughing. This affected everything in my life. I was unable to even go for walks without being out of breath.
The drug of choice used to treat Sarcoidosis is Prednisone. For anyone not familiar with the drug, it reduces inflammation but along with that it has some terrible and serious side effects such as bone pain, fluid retention, insomnia, and weight gain, to name a few. I began taking a variety of Barefoot Secret supplements and the support the supplements offered soon enabled me to reduce my Prednisone dosage to 20 mg per day from 40 mg. I took no other pain relievers except for the Barefoot Secret Pain Relief.
I was introduced to Anti-Aging Tonic and explained with great excitement that you found an article that resveratrol had been found to help those with COPD. NO JOKING HERE...within about one week my lungs started to feel better. I experimented by taking the Asmanex only in the morning, I cut out the PM dose (I had done this before, but immediately had to go back on the evening dose due to breathing difficulties). After four days without my PM dose. I had a follow up appointment with my pulmonologist on Sept 16th.
He said that based on the NORMAL levels of inflammation in my blood work and the IMPROVED FUNCTIONING of my lungs, that the Sarcoidosis was in remission. I was so elated and thankful! I no longer take any steroid medication. yeah!!!
With the important component of supporting my immune system with the Barefoot Secret supplements and the amazing Anti-Aging Tonic, I am able to win my battle against Sarcoidosis. Thank you for making an amazing and healthy difference in my life.
God Bless, Jeannie

Weight Loss Supplements: No-Brainer Moves to Fight Fat
When it comes to working to get fit, sometimes all you need is common sense to help you attain your goal. Just eat the right food to energize your body and do some form of exercise regularly.
Weight Loss Fitness Frenzy
Even so, there are those who view getting in shape as a mentally and physically exhausting task. Relax. Fighting excess fat isn't as difficult as you think.
So, don't make yourself miserable by obsessively counting calories or hoarding fat-burning gadgets that guarantee overnight results. Likewise, hold off on buying the latest books about the fad diet of the moment. Save your money and strengthen your resolve to cut out the fat from your diet.
Weight Loss Fighting Simply
To show you how you can chuck fat painlessly, check out these three super simple ways to do it:
1. Keep it single. According to a study done at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas, people who correctly identified standard portion sizes for certain foods, such as chicken nuggets and cheese, still ate 40 to 75 percent more than that amount. The sight of food was enough to make them forget their vow to get fit. So, resist the temptation to indulge by sticking to single servings or storing your leftovers right away.
2. Spray it on. Instead of pouring cooking oil into the pan, use a garden-variety spray bottle for your stir-fried dishes. Each spray releases about one-eight of a teaspoon of oil--compared to an average of two to three teaspoons when you pour it on.
3. Go for appetizers. Worried about falling off the fitness wagon when you're in a restaurant? Order two appetizers and skip the main course. "This strategy keeps portion sizes small but satiates you with a couple of different flavors," explains dietician Elisabetta Politi, nutrition director of Duke University's Diet and Fitness Center in Durham, North California.
Weight Loss Starting Point
As soon as you've made these easy moves a part of your fitness routine, you're ready to take on more physical challenges. Just remember to be patient. After all, you already have a good head start.

Weight Loss Supplements: A Big Fat Problem With Testosterone
Weight Loss Supplements: A Big Fat Problem With Testosterone
According to Al Sears, MD men who are overweight have lower levels of testosterone. And weight gain often goes hand-in-hand with rising estrogen. Too much estrogen then interferes with testosterone - leading to depression, loss of muscle mass and bone density, feminization of older men, and loss of sexual drive and performance. Now a clinical study is shedding some additional light.
A just-published study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism of about 1,700 men found that weight gain - as little as 30 pounds - caused as much testosterone loss as if the men had aged 10 years. Men naturally lose testosterone as they age. But these numbers tell us that the drop that comes from weight gain can give a 40-year-old the hormonal profile of a man 10 years his senior. That should be a powerful motivator for you to stay lean.
If you are overweight, you may be able to reverse some of the accompanying "side effects" by boosting your testosterone and getting rid of excess estrogen. You can start right away by making a few changes in your diet. To lower your estrogen, eat lots of cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower.....
To boost your testosterone, add a zinc supplement to your diet. Zinc maximizes testosterone production, prolongs the life of testosterone in your blood, and increases the sensitivity of testosterone receptors. Most men don’t realize it, but over 60 percent of them have zinc deficiencies. Start with 30 mg a day.

Ya know reading labels really sucks, doesn't it! Here is a fact you might not realize.
Fact: The shape of your body is the direct result of your current lifestyle.
The truth hurts sometimes...So how you change your lifestyle? The answer is actually easier than you might think. Most people who are unhappy with their bodies are really only holding on to a few bad habits. Once these destructive habits are identified and then replaced with healthy habits their body naturally transforms from one that they loathe to one that they are proud of.
In other words, to get the body that you want simply determine your unhealthy habits and replace them with healthy ones. Here are the most prevalent unhealthy habits:
The habit of inactivity. Failing to exercise on a consistent basis is one of the most destructive obstacles for your health and figure. (The key word here is consistent. If you aren't exercising at least 3-4 times each week then you own this habit.)
The habit of overeating. Consuming calories in excess of your daily caloric needs is one of the main reasons that more adults are overweight today than ever before.
The habit of empty calories. Filling your diet with foods that hold little to no nutritional value is a great way to expand your waist. (fyi.. if a food item is made up of mainly sugar and/or fat consider it 'empty' calories.)
Sometims the best way to change bad habits is to follow a proven plan.. a step by step method. I have found what happens many times we are just overloaded with so many "insider secrets" a brick wall goes up and we are back to square one.

Weight Loss: How to feel your best Everyday
There is much more to weight loss than just diet and excercise. Here are 5 tips that will help you feel your best while loosing weight. Kick the Stress
Fifty percent of us experience stress every day. Mothers—especially working mothers—experience the greatest amount. Daily stress and anxiety wreak havoc with our sense of well-being and the impact of prolonged stress can have severe consequences on our health. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control estimates 75-90% of all visits to the doctor’s office are stress related.One key to good health is to keep levels of stress in check.
Get started by: Identifying Your Stressors – Whether it's marital problems, money issues, traffic or the piles of laundry, the first step to managing stress is knowing what's causing the most stress in your life. Once identified, you can begin to figure out how to overcome stress or manage it better.
Setting Priorities – Take stock to determine what's really important and learn to say "no". This can be one of the biggest favors you can do for yourself.
Delegating Responsibilities – You don’t have to be "supermom", learn to ask for help and assign tasks to other family members.
Relaxing and Meditating - Research has shown that taking time out of each day to relax and meditate can help reduce stress.
Taking the Best Stress Relief tablets , a botanical combination which includes a powerful stress reliever from green tea to help promote relaxation, alertness and concentration, and help relieve everyday stress in as little as 30 minutes.
Get Enough Sleep
Emerging scientific evidence indicates that insufficient sleep can be harmful to our health. In a 2007 poll by the National Sleep Foundation, about two-thirds of women reported experiencing a sleep problem at least a few nights a week within the past month (46% reported this occurrence every night or almost every night).
Sleep Well and Re-energize. Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule; establish a relaxing bedtime routine; and try not to eat a meal, drink alcohol or caffeinated beverages or exercise within a few hours of bedtime.
To contend with occasional sleeplessness and to help you get a good night’s rest, MGM Supplement Gentle Sleep uses natural botanicals to promote a calm and restful sleep.
For daily support, take Best MGM Supplements, which delivers supercharged vitality and a broad-spectrum of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, anti-aging phytonutrients, omega-3 fatty acids and probiotics to build the foundation for a longer, healthier life.*
Eat Right
Good nutrition is essential to health and poor food choices contribute to health challenges including weight gain. Start by improving your diet by eating a variety of foods, choosing whole grains, beans and legumes and plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Don't forget to include some lean protein from fish, chicken, soy and nonfat dairy and select heart-healthy omega-3 fats from fish, avocado and nuts. And stay away from fast food restaurants!
And if you’re like most women struggling to maintain a healthy weight, try MGM Supplement weight Loss . It's powered by leucine and designed to help you break the yo-yo dieting cycle.
Exercise
Sure, we all know that exercise is a healthy habit and it's never too late to start. Walking is a great activity for everyone. Start with a 10 or 15-minute walk, especially if you haven’t been exercising regularly. Then do your best to be active every day.
For example: skip the elevator and take the stairs or park farther away from your destination. Or dance! Whatever gets you moving.
Set new goals everyday and keep track of your progress by counting all of your steps with the MGM Supplements Pedometer.
Take a “Timeout” with Friends
A landmark UCLA study suggests that hanging out with friends can actually counteract the kind of stress most women experience on a daily basis. When women engage in this 'tending or befriending' with children and other women, studies suggest that the hormone oxytocin is released, which further counters stress and produces a calming effect.
We always knew that friends made us feel good and now there is actual evidence that they are good for our health! So the next time you need a lift-me-up or simply want to relax, call up your closest group of friends for a fun gathering. This last weekend was a fun filled one. Country Stampede music festival is one of those events that just gives you a warm feeling inside. Even though I love what I do learn more I still need a break sometimes.
Weight Loss maintenance: Keep the weight off permanently
Even if you've lost and gained before, this time can be different. Make weight loss last with these tips for long-term weight maintenance.You did it. You've taken off the pounds you've been battling for years, or at least a good many of them. You're delighted with the results — you have more energy, your cholesterol is down and so is your blood pressure — and you're justifiably proud of yourself. But at the back of your mind is a nagging fear: "What if I gain it all back?"
Weight maintenance is much like weight loss. The principals are essentially the same: eat healthy foods and exercise regularly. And like weight loss, weight maintenance requires a long-term commitment. Indeed, the key to successful weight maintenance is permanent lifestyle changes.
Assess your goals and motivation How you approached weight loss — both your commitment and your plan — goes a long way toward keeping you on the road to success. First, take a look at your motivation. What prompted you to lose weight? If you make a long-term commitment to your health and well-being, rather than losing pounds for a special event, you're already ahead of the game.
In general, focusing on health rather than appearance is a better approach in terms of long-term success, especially if you pay attention to the many ways you feel better as you drop pounds. Also, focusing on the process of lifestyle change rather than the end result is important. Losing just 5 percent to 10 percent of your body weight can reap big health rewards in terms of lower blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar levels and risk of joint problems, such as osteoarthritis. As an added bonus, it can improve your energy level and self-esteem and ease daily aches and pains.
Successful weight-maintenance strategies Once you've lost the weight, you can't stop your efforts. Weight maintenance requires daily exercise, a healthy menu, a long-term commitment and constant vigilance. The following habits are essential to weight maintenance: Continue your exercise program. One of the most important things you can do for weight maintenance is to continue a vigorous exercise program. Studies suggest that it takes 30 to 60 minutes of moderately intense physical activity daily to maintain weight loss. Moderately intense physical activities include fast walking and swimming.
Focus on low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods, such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Keep saturated fat low and limit sweets and alcohol. Remember that no one food offers all the nutrients you need. Choose a variety of foods throughout the day. It's not out of the question to eat and enjoy small amounts of high-fat, high-calorie foods on occasion. But the main thing is that you choose foods that promote weight maintenance and good health more often than you choose foods that don't.
Know and avoid your food traps that cause you to eat. Know which situations can trigger out-of-control eating for you. The best way to identify food traps and emotionally triggered eating is to keep a journal. For as long as you find it helpful, write down what you eat, how much you eat, when you eat, how you're feeling and how hungry you are. After a while, you should see some patterns emerge. Once you know these patterns and triggers, you can plan ahead and develop a strategy for how you'll handle these types of situations. This will help you understand and stay in control of your eating behaviors.
Monitor your weight regularly. People who weigh themselves at least once a week are more successful in keeping off the pounds. Monitoring your weight can tell you whether your efforts are working and can help you detect small weight gains before they become larger. Be consistent. Sticking to your healthy-weight plan during the week, on the weekends, and amidst vacation and holidays increases your chances of long-term success.
Create a support network. Getting support for your efforts, whether through a friend, family member, trained professional or group of fellow travelers on the same path, can ultimately mean the difference between success and failure. The best-laid plan
If you really want to lose weight and keep it off, the best approach is to focus on lifestyle changes and develop an eating plan that's enjoyable, yet healthy and low in calories. This approach results in weight loss that you can live with — that is, that you can maintain over a long period of time.
The good news is that weight maintenance gets easier over time. After two to five years, the odds of keeping the weight off increase greatly. Achieving and staying at a healthy weight does take planning and effort, but the rewards are great.

Weight Loss, Anti-Aging Tips from Dr. Oz
Anti-Aging & Weight Loss Tips from Dr. OZDr. Oz, a cardiac surgeon at one of New York's best hospitals, spoke once again about how to stay young on the Oprah Winfrey Show! This show was so packed with information I took notes and will be sharing what I learned over the next few days.
I think you'll agree that most people conserned about losing weight watch the scales. According to Dr. Oz, he says to look at your waist measurement more than your weight measurement."
Dr. Oz also said that your waist measurement should be less than your height divided by 2. If you are 70" tall, your waist measurement should be less than 35". It is possible to gain muscle weight and also lose inches around the waist. This is a good thing!
The ideal heart rate is: 220 minus your age times .80. Example: a women age 44 should have a target heart rate of 140 when exercising. A lady in the audience complained that she was slowly gaining weight even though she exercises regularly. The Doc put her on an ellipse machine and said she hasn't been pushing herself hard enough. Get the heart rate up 3 times a week.
You should strength train at least 30 minutes a week. Strengthen the core muscles first, before you do pull ups. You should also practice yoga to enhance your flexibility. Yoga is also good for the mind. Some meditations require making a Yummmm, or similar sound. These vibrations are good for the body.
Dr. Oz started by showing two pieces of cut apples. One apple looked fresh because it was rubbed with lemon juice. The other apple piece looked brown and oxidized. Dr. Oz said when our cells oxidized; we age, like the brown apple. The lemon juice is an example of an antioxidant and the other apple piece was better preserved.
Antioxidants are found in blueberries. You should select fruits and vegetables with bright and deep colors. The colors are an indicator of nutrient rich fruits and vegetables. Broccoli loaded with antioxidants and also beneficial for thyroid function. Broccoli has a specific chemical that protects the body against cancer. Tomatoes contain lycopine which is good for the heart.
Here are a few more important points Dr. Oz mentioned...
- Sleep: 7-8 hours every night.
- Sex: 2-3 times a week. This creates more oxitosin, which is a hormone in women that creates a feeling of a loving bond and well being. Sex creates more testosterone in men.
- Vitamins you should add to your diet: Muli Vitamins- a note to pre menopausal women, you need your iron. Men and post menopausal women, he says, no more than 2500 iu vitamin A. Iron is not necessary for men and post menopaousal women.
- Most people over 40 should take 2 baby aspirin a day. This practice will help ward away wrinkles. It is also an anti-inflammatory.
- Smoking increases your "real age" by 10 years.
- Having a passion in life has a positive affect on your real age by 8 years. It keeps your mind young.
On a side note ... Dr. Oz said on another show that the chemicals in your brain are the same chemicals that are found in your gut (intestines). "If your brain isn't happy, your gut will not be happy. If your gut is not happy, your brain will not be happy either." He talked about inflammation in the gut and the importance of adding pro-biotics to reduce inflammation.
Weight Loss: Fat Burning in 7 Steps
Weight Loss and inch loss will result if you take to heart these 7 fat burning steps. Everybody has to figure out what is the best excercise method for them. Personally living on a farm out in the sticks my methods might not be like yours but you can adapt it to what ever your situation is
Step 1: Add Weight
Not by eating more... we mean litterly as weight to your work out! Add some weights when you walk, it's amazing what that will do to burn up calories. I personally use 5 lb weights now, but I started with 2 1/2 pounders. I probably look like an idoit walking down the dirt road waving my arms high above my head and twisting from side to side. It increases my workout intensity while building and toning muscle. More bang for the time you spend keeping fit.
Step 2: Intensity Burst Training
The absolute best way to burn more fat and calories is by working out at a higher intensity right? Try some intensity where you do short burst of maximum intensity and back to easy or medium intensity than repeat. 10 to 20 minutes works for me, generally to the highway and back about mile.
Step 3: Keep Good Posture
For me it's carrying all the animals home who get tired half way. We tend to slump when carrying things.On excercise equipment the handles bars are only there for balance so use them only for that and not when things get hard. Keep you head up no matter how tired you get.
Step 4: Variety Is Everything
Doing the same workout every time you excercise will force your body to adapt that will have you burning less calories and making no gains. Mix up the types of excercise you do from walking to jogging, biking, swimming, etc. just keep adding variety.
Step 5: Up your ; Heart Rate Excercise Last
I am not saying that doing cardio after you workout is the best but it does has its advantages like decreasing muscle soreness after a workout, targets more fat cells. Remember, the best time to do cardio is when you feel the best most importantly just do it.
Step 6: Breath Through Your Nose
Inhaling and exhaling through your nose, rather than your mouth, helps stabilize your heart rate and (like the pre-workout snack) increase your endurance. The result? You work out longer and burn more calories. But don’t get discouraged if it feels unnatural at first — it takes about six to eight workouts to get in the habit.
Step 7: Pre-meal Snack for Weight Loss
Eating a low-carbohydrate protein bar 90 minutes before you work out will enable you to exercise longer and harder (and burn more calories) than you normally would. However, that 90-minute mark is crucial. Eat any closer to your workout, and blood will rush to your stomach, actually diminishing your performance.
Bottom line if you aren't excercising while loosing weight it will take longer to see results. The weight loss program that really pulls off the inches can be found at Weight Loss Inch Loss Website . Oh yea it's a cool designed site too!

Industrial Wastewater Treatment Part 9
Enviro Solutions, Inc. builds systems that treat water from its source point to its discharge point. Our goal is for water to be used again and again. The ongoing costs of admitting fresh water to the plant, passing it through replaceable membranes, treating it with various chemicals, and maintaining equipment impacted by mineral scaling are all reduced, and if routine fines are part of doing business, they likely will be eliminated.
ESI designs and manufactures Enviro technology and also offers equipment from other vendors when their integration also improves the overall solution. Images of various uses and treatments are included in our PowerPoint presentation.
Influent Clarification refers to ensuring that water supplies entering a plant are free of suspended and dissolved solids. Very soft water sources tend to need little treatment, but all other incoming water can be treated to near distilled quality before being put to use. Enviro II can clean up influent. If water softening is in use, it will be eliminated which reduces cost and prevents salt from being added to water.
Expensive plant equipment is often compromised or damaged by materials trapped in the water supply. Examples include scaling in cooling towers and steam boilers brought on by ionization of dissolved minerals, and contamination during post recovery water treatment. Enviro II systems mix filtered makeup water with cleaned wastewater to promote recycling. Our process dramatically reduces chemicals in use and puts an end to sewering water that should be recycled. A huge benefit is that cooling towers and steam boilers do not require the levels of maintenance common to industrial plants.
Enviro II technology encompasses a number of staged fltration products, chemical prescriptions, and equipment available through complementary relationships with other manufacturers. Each purchase is custom designed to affordably match the specific needs of your situation.
Industrial plants are constructed in a variety of sizes and shapes in different physical environments worldwide. Influent may come from municipal water supplies, wells, or lakes that are soft, hard, and/or contaminated differently when compared to similar plants in the same community. It is virtually impossible to design a 'standard' water treatment solution that fits every circumstance without making it prohibitively expensive. Yet Enviro Solutions custom designs are cost effective. Why spend money throwing water away when you can recycle? Why take vital equipment off line? Design out bad water instead.
Enviro Solutions, Inc. (ESI) is an equipment manufacturer. ESI is also a chemical supply company. We know what it takes to solve water problems without wasting precious resources. Enviro II equipment was conceived by career professionals with both chemical and water treatment expertise. This approach means Clients can be sure that their solutions use the best possible product combinations to provide water treatment for most industrial situations. Best of all, the solutions recommended are usually less expensive than traditional approaches.
The designers and engineers at ESI can take on any role that fits a customer's needs, including full design, engineering, collaboration with installation contractors, and project management. If you want a full turnkey solution with minimal impact on current operations, we're up for that too.
Increased recycling of water that has been contaminated during manufacturing processes would help to significantly reduce industry’s carbon footprint, according to research by De Montfort University Leicester (DMU).
Researchers have found a way to boost the energy efficiency of a method of recycling industrial wastewater which, if adopted by companies, would help them to reduce the overall amount of water they buy in.
Now remember Wastewater Treatment is the process of removing contaminates from industrial water to the point of safe discharge. Whether from Process, cooling, or boilers, Enviro II provides decontamination. But Enviro goes further by returning cleaned water to the source point for industrial use. Little to no water is discharged from the plant. What's more, Enviro II may reduce treatment chemicals by 50% or more.
The study marks the first time that the efficiency of membrane bioreactor plants has been assessed using computer-modelling techniques. Academics leading the project believe initial results show plants can be made between 10 to 15 per cent cheaper to operate.
Now Enviro Solutions can cut your industrial water costs up to 80% with products and services from Enviro Solutions.
Industrial wastewater is water which has been contaminated while being used for a specific purpose, for example in the brewing process during the manufacture of alcohol, or in the cleaning of ingredients used for food products.
- Recycling water improves profits by-
- Improving production results
- Decreasing down time
- Reducing production costs

Industrial Wastewater Treatment Part 8
Enviro II industrial wastewater recycling system can save companies from 50% to 90% in water-related life cycle costs. All industrial plants that use large amounts of water in their daily operation often waste millions of dollars in operating costs for water, waste water, waste heat in water, and water related fouling of production equipment.Enviro Solutions, Inc. is also able to recover heat from process water which may save valuable energy for reuse in the plant. The system ESI uses is literally space age technology developed by NASA that is over 230% more efficient for the same heat surface area than Plate & Frame or Shell & Tube heat exchangers.

WATER RECYCLING1
WATER RECYCLING COULD REDUCE INDUSTRIAL ENERGY FOOTPRINT
Increased recycling of water that has been contaminated during manufacturing processes would help to significantly reduce industry’s carbon footprint, according to research by De Montfort University Leicester (DMU).
Researchers have found a way to boost the energy efficiency of a method of recycling industrial wastewater which, if adopted by companies, would help them to reduce the overall amount of water they buy in.
Now remember Wastewater Treatment is the process of removing contaminates from industrial water to the point of safe discharge. Whether from Process, cooling, or boilers, Enviro II provides decontamination. But Enviro goes further by returning cleaned water to the source point for industrial use. Little to no water is discharged from the plant. What's more, Enviro II may reduce treatment chemicals by 50% or more.
The study marks the first time that the efficiency of membrane bioreactor plants has been assessed using computer-modelling techniques. Academics leading the project believe initial results show plants can be made between 10 to 15 per cent cheaper to operate.
Now Enviro Solutions can cut your industrial water costs up to 80% with products and services from Enviro Solutions.
Industrial wastewater is water which has been contaminated while being used for a specific purpose, for example in the brewing process during the manufacture of alcohol, or in the cleaning of ingredients used for food products.
