(ARA) – Do you feel tired all the time even though you get eight hours of sleep a night? Do your muscles throb every time you complete a workout even though you exercise every day; or do you experience occasional irritability for no apparent reason? If you answered yes to any of these questions, your problem may be a lack of adequate levels of oxygen in the blood.
Our bodies were designed to operate in an environment that existed hundreds of years ago -- when 30 to 40 percent of the air breathed was oxygen. Due in a large part to pollution, today, oxygen levels are about half that – 20 to 22 percent in most U.S. cities; as low as 15 percent in others.
According to Ed McCabe, author of “Flood Your Body With Oxygen,” by living in an oxygen-deficient environment and not feeding our cells the proper oxygen and nutrients needed for cleaning out toxins and wastes, our body fluids and blood can become dirty and toxic. A lack of oxygen to our cells weakens our immune system, which may lead to viral infections, damaged cells, bacterial growths, inflamed joints, serious heart and circulatory problems, toxic buildup in blood and premature aging.
However, if the cells in our bodies are rich in oxygen, mutated cells may be less able to reproduce Other benefits of having adequate levels of oxygen in our systems: increased energy; the ability to maintain healthy cholesterol levels; enhanced brain function; a reduction in stress; the ability to overcome fatigue; and looking and feeling younger.
So what can you do to restore a healthy balance of oxygen in your blood?
1. Do more aerobic exercise (where you repeatedly move large muscles in your arms, legs and hips) such as walking or bicycling. When you're aerobically fit, your body is more efficient at taking in and using oxygen, which can help you live longer and healthier.
2. Eat food-based antioxidants, such as dark-colored berries. They convert toxic free radicals in your body into harmless elements. If left unchecked, free radicals will attach themselves to oxygen molecules which are supposed to be providing the cells with energy, and instead damage them.
3. Eat plenty of green, leafy vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, Swiss chard, and mustard greens. They are a good supply of Vitamin E which is one of the antioxidants that attacks free radicals.
4. Take oxygen-enhancing products, such as Oxygen Elements Plus which supplies the body’s cells with a steady diet of oxygen, full spectrum minerals, amino acids, and enzymes. To use the supplement, simply add five to seven drops to six to eight ounces of purified water, juice or some other beverage. Gradually increase the product usage over a two or three week period until you are using a maintenance amount of seven drops three times a day. Children may use 1/4 to 1/2 the adult dose.
The Health and Longevity Institute of San Marcos, Calif., recently conducted a test to determine the effectiveness of Oxygen Elements Plus. The participants were instructed to go about their lives as normal -- not changing their dietary, exercise, medication or normal supplement habits. All they did different was add seven drops of Oxygen Elements Plus to their drinking water or juice three times a day for 30 days.
“Blood samples taken at the end of the testing period were compared to those taken before supplementation began and the results were dramatic,” says Dr. Gary Shima of the Health and Longevity Institute. “Total cholesterol levels were recorded lower in 70 percent of the participants; 50 percent of them had higher iron levels, and 40 percent saw their calcium and potassium levels normalize.” In the post-test questionnaire, participants also made note of some other benefits they experienced – less daytime sleepiness, a reduction in pain and swelling and a reduced sense of anxiety.
Oxygen Elements Plus is not available in stores. For more information on how you can dramatically improve your health and well-being for less than a dollar a day, log on to www.oxygentoday.com Courtesy of ARA Content
