Natural Cure For Gout

Gout is a very nasty disease to deal with.  Once you think it’s gone and you’ve got it handled, it can show up unexpectedly and put you right back into agony.

Gout is such a tricky condition to get rid of because it has a self-perpetuating mechanism that keeps reproducing itself over-and-over again.  The key to eliminating gout is understanding this feedback loop and breaking the cycle at its core.

Gout has been historically known as the “rich man’s disease” and “the disease of kings”.  This was because of the lifestyle factors that were traditionally associated with the wealthy: heavily processed food (and lots of it), lack of movement (because they had others to do the work for them), and lack of true rest (because they were often out-of-sync with nature and could stay up late enjoying the spoils of the privileged life).  Keep Reading…

What if you found out that the pots and pans you’ve been cooking your family’s food on has been linked to major disease and even death?  Well, that’s precisely what’s been discovered in linking numerous major sources of cookware to preventable illness.

Shortly after World War II the Du Pont company unveiled the brand new Teflon non-stick cookware to the world (much to the joy of the general public).  Now house moms and self-proclaimed chefs could cook their meals quicker, easier, and with less work than ever before.  Because the surfaces were non-stick, you could use less oil (or even no oil at all), which was key as people were beginning to fear the perceived dangers of fat.

I’m in love with chia… what can I say.  Not only is it a full spectrum nutritional powerhouse, but there’s just something about it that keeps me feeling better than usual every time I have it.

For centuries chia was prized by the Aztec and Mayan civilizations.  It was a true staple food, and a special key in the Aztec warrior’s diet.  It’s been documented that warriors subsisted on chia seeds during battles and long hunting expeditions.  Basically what this is telling you is that this food can truly sustain you and help you to thrive during long periods of stress (I guess this is why I’m so in love with it).

The first factor in chia’s resilience and value as a superfood is its excellent ratio of Omega-3 fatty acids.  It’s likely the highest natural source of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid).

ALA is a building block for the transformation of EPA into DHA, which basically means that it’s a POTENT brain food! Keep Reading…

Think you can’t revolutionize your body and burn body fat in 5 minutes? Well, I didn’t think so at one time myself, but the results speak for themselves!

This is a Level II version of my patented 5-Minute Fat Burners. If you’re more physically fit, go through this program just as the model is doing on this video, rest 3 minutes then repeat the circuit again (I personally do it 3 times!)

Use this to your advantage and get fit for the summer!

TED is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader.

TEDxSinCIty is a piece of the TED experience brought to you in the spirit of spreading powerful ideas from a localized or regional aspect. Being Las Vegas (affectionately known as “Sin City”), this TEDx event is pushing the envelope on what we think is possible and what we can do to take ACTION to make our dreams a reality.

Shawn’s presentation is showing us how our decisions on the food we eat actually fuels our ability to be creative and successful leaders. It’s not about “eating healthy”, it’s about fueling your body and mind with the most powerful foods in the world! Leave a Comment…
