Jamie Oliver’s TED award speech

Jamie expresses his wish to teach every child about food and fight obesity I love Jamie’s message and agree 100%.  It goes along with ForeverGreen’s Raw Promise Message of making healthier food choices.

embedded by Embedded Video

Sugar Is A Drug (and how you can kick the habit!)

It’s been labeled the sweetest poison, toxic, and harmful and recently in ‘Hungry For Change’… a drug. Unfortunately it does seem a little extreme to label a food as a drug but when you look at how sugar (especially the highly refined and processed kinds) are metabolized by your body then you can begin to understand why…Hunger For Change

Essential Oil Anti-Aging Skin Care

Note From Lorene

Ever since being introduced to the magical benefits of ForeverGreen TRUessence Message/Carrier Grapeseed oil, Jojoba oil, and Quench Moisturizing Spray, they are my daily go-to non-toxic moisturizers!

Quench is my morning under-makeup face and neck moisturizer, as well as being a light moisturizer for my hands, arms, legs, etc

Message Grapeseed is my occasional moisturizer (alternated with Jojoba), and always my nighttime makeup remover. Perfect to remove mascara!

Message Jojoba is my night-time moisturizer after my evening bath soak. I mix it up with my favorite relaxation oils, a different one each evening.

Try them for yourself and see what you think!

Anti-Aging Moisturizer – Message Oil – Jojoba

Jojoba is a rich, nourishing oil for the skin, it is actually in fact a wax that is the closest molecular structure to the sebum of the skin that exists. It is healing, healthy source of rich nutrition for your skin.

Jojoba oil does not become rancid or lose antioxidants even after long periods of storage.

It spreads well and absorbs well and is one of our favorite moisturizers to use for night-time skin care!

Add a drop or two of Quiescent blend, Lavender, Geranium, or any of your favorite skin care oils.

Apply to face, neck, arms, legs, feet . . . it’s an all-over moisturizer . . .

and is even great to add to bath water!

______________________________________________________________

Note From Lorene

As we spend the next few weeks focused on non-toxic, all-natural, anti-aging skin care, one of the most valuable things we can do is to replace so many of the chemically-filled commercial lotions and potions that fill our cupboards, purses, bathrooms and medicine cabinets. Our skin absorbs all that ‘stuff’, our livers have to handle the load, and the toxic chemicals get stored in our organs and fat cells – without us even knowing it.

We can not only get the moisturizing benefits we’re seeking from simple, non-toxic elements from Mother Earth, but we can also begin to detoxify our bodies from the damaging skin care regimens we’ve used over the years.

AND we can save money in the process.

TRUessence essential oils
, Message Oils, Quench, and other anti-aging support products are SO much less expensive, and such a better investment!

Now that we know better, we can do better.

Following is one example of a simple replacement that is not only effective; it’s actually beginning to turn back the aging-clock!

____________________________________________________________

Success Story
No More Cracked Heels Or Dry ‘Arizona’ Skin
!

I have always had dry skin and have used bottles of lotion to keep my “Arizona” feet (especially heels) from cracking as we hardly wear anything but sandals in this state. I began layering the essential oils that my body was “calling for”, then topping it all with Message Oil. It has been nearly 2 years since I had cracked heels or dry skin.

I use the Message Oil on my face and neck also, and since my thyroid is weak, I include Geranium drops in it – - so my skin benefits as well as my thyroid.

Also, all those nice smelling Bath and Body Works lotions that I had purchased through the years no longer have to be processed by my liver! If I want my Message Oil to smell like them, I just choose one of the terrific, emotional uplifting blends (such as Delight, Cherished Space, etc) and have a low-cost, high quality, pure skin treatment!

- Jacque G.

______________________________________________________________________________

Note From Lorene

Skin Care, beauty care, and health in general ALL start from the Inside-out. We can slather on all the goo, powders, and such, and none of those will replace the radiance that comes from the inside-out. Read the following, and see what YOU think. . .

Like It Or Not, Daily Choices Show Up In Our Skin

What we do with the most frequency and regularity – no matter how mundane – are the actions that have the greatest impact on our quality of life and our physical reflections-our skin. Too often our routines are on autopilot, we just unconsciously do what we’ve always done or they’re by some one else’s design, like the mainstream media.

It’s what we blindly invite into our minds, bodies, and lives that ultimately wears us down and shows up in our skin, our overall health, and our vitality.

By simply tweaking countless low-grade assault hidden in our everyday routines, it’s possible to make dozens of adjustments without feeling or missing a thing – except perhaps the

chronic irritation

skin rashes

breakouts

headaches

energy leaks

and other compounded layers of short – and long term harm we’ve needlessly endured.

Those simple tweaks can profoundly change our energy level, skin tone and clarity, and reduce aches and pains!

Ideas For Some Simple ‘Tweaks’ To Support Glowing Skin

Top of the list – ditch the sodas! Replace them with a pleasurable drink that tastes delicious and leaves you satisfied AND healthier!

a. To wean yourself off sodas, replace them with a glass of sparkling mineral water, a touch of fruit juice concentrate, and a dash of FrequenSea. Mix, ice, enjoy.

b. Make your own liver-loving home-made lemonade, instead of soda, for a delicious treat. It only takes a minute or two. And if you’re needing the ‘fizz’, use sparkling mineral water, till you can live without it. Juice fresh lemons, sweeten with HYDRessence Rainmaker, add water, ice, aaahhhh . . .

c. Slice up some delicious oranges, add a few of them to ice water, enjoy!

d. Drop one or two drops of your favorite HYDRessence Dragons, a couple of drops of HYDRessence Rainmaker into some ice water. Enjoy!

e. One of my favorites . . . fill a glass jar half full with ice, add filtered or distilled water, add a drop or two of either TRUessence Orange oil, Grapefruit oil, Mandarin Red oil, and a drop of HYDRessence Red Dragon into it, shake well, enjoy! Delicious!

Soda consumption not only trashes our skin, but it also paves the way for a plethora of health challenges that are costly in more ways than one! Create a personal challenge to replace sodas with healthier alternatives, and find out for yourself!

________________________________________________________________________________

We’ve talked about several simple and yet profound ‘tweaks’ we can make to our lifestyles to slow down our aging. We have a couple of other topics to talk about before we dive deep into the specifics of each essential oil in the Skin Care Pack, and the specific conditions we may be dealing with.

It use to be that wrinkles, brown spots, and certain illnesses, infirmities and other signs of aging were accepted as inevitable facts of life. Times have changed! After all, as they say, 50 is the new 30, right? We’re all about slowing (or reversing) the aging process, aging gracefully – and we’re all about doing so naturally! That’s why we’re devoting so much time and attention to non-toxic anti-aging skin care, the TRUessence way!

_____________________________________________________________________

Intrinsic & Extrinsic Aging

Fascinating information about the aging process reveals that there are two types of aging, intrinsic and extrinsic.

INTRINSIC, or internal aging, is the rate at which we age with the passage of time. Influenced by the quality and types of food we eat, drinks we ingest, and supplements we enhance our lives with.

EXTRINSIC, or external aging, is the impact of external factors such as toxic air, toxic water, excessive sun, exposure to chemicals and toxins in detergents, cleaners, skin care products, and cosmetics which age us more quickly.

One way to profoundly alter the intrinsic aging process is to implement the simple TRUessence Daily Liver Care protocol. It’s SO important that it is generally the way we suggest that people begin using the oils on a daily basis.

___________________________________________________________________
A simple personal hygiene choice that can have a powerful impact on your health, and today I’m going to focus on the power of our food choices on our skin and beauty.

It’s more impactful than you might imagine. . .and our ForeverGreen Raw Promise is bringing this to our attention now, more than ever. This particular topic may not seem to have anything to do with skin care, but in my world-view, it has EVERYTHING to do with healthy, vibrant, youthful skin. With our focus on skin care this month, this can’t go without being addressed.

As I shared on last Tuesday’s TRUessence Training call,
the real ‘fountain of youth’ is a healthy diet and lifestyle!

Here is a bit of information to consider . . .

DO & DON’T TO SLOW AGING!

DO . . .

“It’s important to be consuming large amounts of whole, unprocessed, healthy raw foods that are loaded with antioxidants, you can help to slow down the speed at which signs of your real age show up.

In fact, one of the reasons I started vegetable juicing is that I would see 75-year-old women in my practice who looked like they were 40 years old with virtually no facial wrinkles. Most of them were doing large amounts of juicing and led healthy lifestyles.

Juicing is actually a great way to get more raw veggies into your diet . . . aim to buy organic, locally-grown vegetables that are in season.

DON’T . . . eat sugar!

It’s also important to cut back on sugar. Diets high in sugar increase free radicals and oxidative stress, and leads to signs of premature aging.

And the sooner you start to make these positive changes — the better. Whether you’re young or old, this healthy lifestyle will help keep the signs of aging away, or at least slow them down considerably.”

Alexandria covered on our weekly calls the power, importance, and value in using Environmental Cleansing on a regular basis.

On another call we focused on Non-Toxic Laundry and Clothing Care.

Lots of simple, effective, inexpensive SOLUTIONS for an aspect of home care and personal care that touches our bodies every minute of every day.

Oven cleaners are clearly one of the most dangerous and toxic home care products! With the skull & crossbones image, warnings all over the containers, and caustic fumes – there’s no denying the risk!

Not only from usage of the oven cleaner, but also in storing it in your home where little ones, pets and others can get into it.

Consider this from Linda Mason Hunter, coauthor of Green Clean:

“Most [oven cleaner] brands
contain Lye and sodium hydroxide,
caustic substances that can
burn the skin, eyes, throat and mouth.”

Contact me for the eBooks with this recipe and all the recorded calls and eBooks. Here is a a list of what I have.

_______________________________________________________________

I’ve been sharing recipes, info and inspiration about all-natural, non-toxic
home care with the amazing TRUessence essential oils.

The impact of a few simple changes in how we care for our Homes will not only slow our own aging processes, and be easier on our wallets, they will leave less of a footprint for our children and grandchildren to have to deal with.

What really hasn’t even been spoken yet is the impact of our home care choices on Mother Earth. So this note is a simple reminder that our choices to use natural, non-toxic bio-degradable cleaning products are also eco-friendly and earth friendly. And that shouldn’t go unacknowledged!

To me, the following image and quote were beautiful reminders of our sacred stewardship of caring for Mother Earth. . .

“Children get most of their pesticide exposure from chemicals used within the home.”

No joke! Documented in Ellen Sandbeck’s Green Housekeeping.

I believe that with a little bit more consciousness about the toxins we’re proliferating in our homes, we can turn the tide, clean up (literally) the toxins we expose our loved ones to, and enjoy ALL the amazing benefits from non-toxic home care with ForeverGreen TRUessence!

April’s ForeverGreen TRUessence focus is non-toxic home care.

Success Story - Sparkling Stainless Steel Appliances!

NOTE FROM LORENE: On Saturday I sent you a story about Michelle Cockerill’s excitement about using lemon oil to clean her appliances.  She asked me to add an addendum. So following her story (so you can keep the info connected), you will find her update.

“My husband and I bought all new stainless steel appliances a couple of weeks ago.

I knew that I would have extra work of cleaning fingerprints and stains.

I had heard that baby oil would clean stains so I thought, I am going to try my lemon oil.

Well what a surprise indeed.

Those fingerprints and stains cleaned up in a breeze and now my kitchen smells like lemon heaven.

Another great use for lemon oil yahoooo :)

- Michelle Cockerill

UPDATE FROM MICHELLE: Wipe after applying lemon oil with a soft wet cloth and polish dry with a dry cloth after. It works like a charm because the lemon oil dissolves the fingerprints. I’m hooked, I wipe them up almost everyday now, lol.

Household Headaches Solved!
Pain Trigger: Disinfectant Wipes

Sure its convenient to clean surfaces with pre-moistened wipes and disinfectant sprays, but many contain chemicals like phenol and ammonia that cause eye, skin and lung irritation, warns Linda Mason Hunter, coauthor of Green Clean (Melcher Media).

The natural alternative:

RECIPE:  Disinfectant – Without Chemical Toxins

  • 2 cups filtered/distilled water
  • 2 Tbs liquid dish soap [ForeverGreen Housekeeper]
  • 10 – 20 drops Tea Tree

Mix well in a spray bottle.
Keep on hand to disinfect surfaces anytime.

The Tea Tree oil’s terpenoids have powerful antiseptic and antifungal properties.

_________________________________________________________________________

 Note From Lorene

Whether you have a self-cleaning oven or not, chances are, at some point, you’ve got to clean some or all of an oven without the benefit of the self-cleaning feature!  I don’t even need to warn you about the toxicity of all the commercial oven cleaners – the warnings are all over the containers!

See below for a simple, easy, inexpensive, non-toxic way to clean your oven!
Powerhouse Oven Cleaner -RECIPE

  • 1 cup or more baking soda
  • Squirt Bottle of Water with 5 – 10 drops TRUessence Lemon oil or Orange oil mixed in
  • A squirt or two of House Keeper liquid concentrate with TRUessence Lemon oil or Orange oil mixed in

Spray water generously over the bottom of the oven, then cover the grime with enough baking soda that the surface is totally white.

Spray water generously over the bottom of the oven, then cover the grime with enough baking soda that the surface is totally white.

Spray more water over the top.

Let the mixture set overnight.

You can easily wipe up the grease the next morning
because the grime will have loosened.

When you have cleaned up the worst of the mess, dab  a bit of liquid detergent or soap on a sponge, and wash the remaining residue from the oven. (If this recipe doesn’t
work for you it may be because you didn’t use enough baking soda and/or water.)

Sparkling Bathrooms Without The Toxic Chemicals

Note From Lorene


It use to be that when my housekeeper would come to clean each week, I would have to open up all the doors and windows to my house (even in the dead of winter) to air out the toxic fumes as quickly as possible. My home smelled like a chemical lab, and the chemicals gave me headaches, made me extremely nauseous and tired!

Can you relate?

Do you or anyone in your home have that kind of response to cleaning day?

Imagine the damage we’ve done to Mother Earth!!!

The good news is that we can each make changes, there are simple, easy, inexpensive, non-toxic alternatives – my housekeeper now uses them – and we’re sharing them all with you!

See below for some great ideas and recipes! 
RECIPE

My Favorite CREAM SOFT SCRUB

  • ½ C baking soda
  • 2 T  ForeverGreen House Keeper biodegradable, non toxic household cleaning concentrate
  • 1 – 2 T water (to dilute to consistency you would like to work with)
  • 2 – 4 drops TRUessence Essential Oil of choice (Orange, Lemon, Tea Tree, Peppermint)
  • 1 tsp vegetable glycerin

Add baking soda into a wide mouth jar; add enough liquid detergent, essential oils and vegetable glycerin to create to make a texture like frosting.

Apply enough of the mixture as needed onto a sponge, and wash the surface.

This is the perfect recipe for cleaning bathtubs and sinks – it rinses easily and doesn’t leave grit.

NOTE: the vegetable glycerin will help to keep the cleaner moist. Increase proportions and make a large batch, keeping it in each bath room, kitchen and other areas where convenience would help – or just make as much as you need at any one time.

I love this ‘soft scrub’ for all the sinks, tubs and scrub-able areas in the house!

______________________________________________________________________________

Note From Lorene

Did you know that many commercial dishwashing liquids contain harsh detergents, coal tar based colors, and artificial fragrances . . . all of which will create toxic ‘fumes’ in your kitchen which
at the very least you’ll inhale over and over  the toxic chemicals will be absorbed through your skin the toxic chemicals leave residue on the dishes you feed your family from

Make a small, simple, easy-to-implement change to reduce your own toxic load and your family’s toxic load!

RECIPE: Non-Toxic Dishwashing

HAND WASHING

Keep a clean dispenser of diluted ForeverGreen House Keeper with several drops of Tea Tree,  Lemon, Grapefruit, Orange or Guardian Blend to support effective cleaning and to kill bacteria.

DISHWASHER

A few drops (6 – 8) of essential oils may be added to the dispenser of your home dishwasher will help disinfect and purify. That way the family won’t pass around ‘bugs’, germs or bacteria. Most dishwashers don’t clean with enough hot water for long enough to truly disinfect. Some of our favorite oils to use are Scotch Pine, Eucalyptus Globulus, Lemon, or Guardian Blend.

HOME-MADE DISWASHER SOAP – a simple non-toxic alternative

Mix equal parts Borax and Baking Soda and store in a tightly sealed container

Use 2 tablespoons per load

Add 6 – 8 drops Eucalyptus Globulus, Lemon, or Guardian Blend.

NOTE: If you have hard water, double the amount of baking soda in your mixture.
Add vinegar to the dispenser for the rinse cycle.

Many dishwasher detergents contain dry chlorine, dyes and artificial fragrances, all activated when dissolved in water, and dispersed through your home when steam leaks from your dishwasher. Make a simple change to non-toxic home care products! Little things DO matter!

____________________________________________________________________________

Note From Lorene

Detoxing our home environment can make a HUGE difference in:

the rate at which we age (or slow aging)
the level of our overall health
the vitality of our energy
our susceptibility to illness
and more.

Simple, easy non-toxic ‘fixes’ can enhance the quality of our lives, health, and energy!

RECIPE: Non-Toxic Sparkling Clean FLOORS

  • Drop a few drops of Lemon, Scotch Pine or Balsam Fir in the mop bucket with a squirt of ForeverGreen Housekeeper Cleaning Concentrate for cleaning floors and wood around the house.

Contrast the health benefits of the above recipe to the fact that 1 gallon of PineSol has enough chemically derived phenol to kill an adult 3 times over!

Toxic chemical phenols are oily, so believe it or not, they’re easily absorbed through the feet after mopping, etc.

The residue hangs around, is absorbed through your skin, and is especially bad if you’re using it without gloves, as your hands will instantly absorb the toxins.

Keep Bed Bugs OUT of your home

Note From Lorene

I was sitting at my desk just now, perusing an email I’d written and had my assistant Angela send out, (and wondering why the formatting goes funky sometimes), when I look up at the email that came into my Inbox immediately following my own email broadcast – literally – and the irony of its message was just too much, I had to open it!

What was the subject line that grabbed my attention? “PROTECT Against Bed Bugs”

Ironic, because I had literally just prepared several bits of information for our upcoming Home Care RECIPES eBook (releasing Tuesday) about how studies have show the effectiveness of ESSENTIAL OILS to not only eradicate, but to prevent Dust Mites, Fleas, Ticks, Ants, Spiders and bed bugs!  I just had to open this email.

What did it say?

Here is the direct copy – (minus the product name, ’cause I’m not here to promote another product, since we have essential oils that can eradicate and prevent bed bugs NATURALLY and NON-TOXICALLY – more about that at the end of this email):

You may not be able to see them: but they are there.

Don’t ever let your family be exposed to this risk.


Provo: Remember when “sleep tight and don’t let the bed bugs bite” was just a cute bedtime expression that didn’t mean anything? Well, those days are over. After 6 decades of living largely bed bug-free, the US is facing a national infestation.

In fact, the incidence of bed bug infestation has risen 500% in the last few years alone, and they’re not just in dirty hotels – they’re at the 5-star ones as well and swarming the public places you visit every day. Bed bugs are shutting down businesses and being found at your local movie theaters and clothing stores as they inch closer and closer to your home..

Things that go Bite in the night . . .
Bed bugs are tiny insects that rely on the blood of humans or animals to survive. As babies, they are tiny as pinheads. A full-grown adult that’s been making a nightly meal of you can balloon to the size of Lincoln’s head on the penny. These little parasites are nocturnal and hate light, so they wait until the dark to creep out for their meals, which is why it can take so long to discover you’ve been sharing your home with them.

Keep Bed Bugs OUT of your home

For too long a time, there were only a few solutions for this growing problem. Most people use pesticides or call exterminators, but those can give negative health effects and are usually costly.   END OF COPY . . .

Continued Note From Lorene

Ok, well it’s alarming, right?

Well, the irony of it was, I had just spent a couple of hours last night writing about how EFFECTIVE and POWERFUL and PROVEN essential oils have been in the prevention and eradication of bed bugs!

So, taking this as my ‘cue from the universe’, I’m sending out this second note today. And I’m also going to give you the essential oil SOLUTIONS to Bed Bugs!

THE ESSENTIAL OIL SOLUTION TO BED BUGS!

So, knowing the bioinsecticidal properties of Scotch Pine, Balsam Fir, Eucalyptus Globulus AND the oils in Guardian Blend  - and knowing the historical uses of each (see the Home Care USAGE Guide for more info) – I am 100% convinced that these are not only SAFER to use, but that they are the superior choice for those of us who are wanting clean, pest-free homes that are also non-toxic!

Here are a couple of my own answers to bed bugs, Dust Mites, Fleas, Ticks, Ants, Spiders . . .

Dust Mite Spray

- 1 pint distilled water
- 15-20 drops Eucalyptus Globulus, Scotch Pine or Balsam Fir (or all 3!)

Add to cobalt blue spray bottle.
Shake well before each use.

Spray mattresses, pillows, curtains, upholstered furniture, soft furnishings and toys.
Let sit for 2 hours.

For safety, it’s recommended that you test a small unseen patch on delicate fabrics
before proceeding.

Bed Bug Spray & Suggested Treatments

 

  • Keep bottles of misting spray (see recipe below) in the kitchen, in the bath, at your desk, in the car, in your suitcase, and in your purse.
  • Spray in each bedroom, on bedding & mattresses between changes of linens
  • In Hotel rooms, beds, phones and bathrooms, particularly to kill bed bugs.
  • Spray bed and pillows.

Guardian Blend Misting Spray

- 4 oz blue cobalt spray bottle
- 4 oz distilled water
- 25 drops Guardian blend

Shake well, use as indicated above.

Oh My Gosh…

I just love the Glass & Window Cleaner Sparkling Clean! recipe I got from the TRUessence Home Care Pack RECIPE eBook! (see below for recipe – eBook will be released Tues, April 17th)

This is the best thing I have ever used…ever!

I am even using this to clean my eyeglasses. I use micro-fiber cloths for all my cleaning and I still had residue, streaks etc.

This is completely different and crystal clear.

I am excited to make up all the other recipes from this series, get cleaning the safe and healthy way.

My husband came home the other day, and I met him at the door to show him the windows, he said “Oh my God, what did you do…replace them?”

I said “no, it’s a new recipe for non-toxic cleaners, isn’t it awesome?”

He said “impressive!”

I am having fun cleaning, everything is so sparkly! He just breezed through again and he says it “smells good too!”

My husband also thanks you :)

RECIPE

Glass & Window Cleaner Sparkling Clean!

  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon ForeverGreen House Keeper liquid concentrate
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 cups water
  • 10 drops TRUessence balsam fir


Add each of the ingredients into a spray bottle, shake gently, and use as you would a
commercial brand.

NOTE: The little bit of House Keeper is important. It cuts the wax residue from the commercial brands you might have used in the past, and adds an element of viscosity to the cleaner. Using newsprint newspaper instead of paper towels actually will cut grease and add an additional element of sparkle to the glass that’s being cleaned.

SUCCESS STORY – I LOVE My Non-Toxic Cleaning Stuff!

Housekeeper is my go-to cleaner for most everything around my home!
It works great without any nasty chemicals or smelly fumes.

I purchased several commercial 32+ ounce plastic spray bottles.
I fill them with my Housekeeper and essential oils, at different dilutions, and then I have labeled them.
One is Kitchen; one is Glass, one Bathroom, one General, etc.

I follow the instructions for mixing that is on bottle of Housekeeper Concentrate,
and I add a TRUessence Oil to the mix depending on the purpose of the bottle.

Kitchen and Glass have Lemon Oil, Bathroom has Guardian, and General I have fun with maybe some Sweet Orange or Pink Grapefruit.

I have so much fun and we all enjoy the clean and the wonderful smell of TRUessence essential oils too!

Success Story

I started doing the Liver Care Program because I was shutting down everyday at about 2:00 p.m. I would get extremely sleepy, my eyes would get blurry, and my mind went very foggy. I was on the Liver Care Program for 5 days and went all day without shutting down.

As a bonus, my skin cleared up as well.

Thank you.

Jan’s AMAZING Liver Care Success

Last summer I had the unfortunate experience of contracting a horrible rash all over my body after visiting a health spa for what I thought was going to be a relaxing afternoon and a special treat. Boy was I in for a surprise!

I’m not sure if the reaction was caused by the products used during my massage, or the bath product that I purchased (which was supposed to relax me and aid in sleeping). Nonetheless, I ended up with an awful red rash and a terrible itching sensation all over my body.

It lasted for WEEKS! No relief.  I finally went to see a dermatologist.

Upon visiting a dermatologist and undergoing a battery of tests which included a plug from my leg (for a biopsy to make sure nothing more serious was going on), I was informed that they could find NOTHING!! UGH!

I was sent to the drugstore with a handful of prescriptions which did absolutely NOTHING but waste my money.

Thank God I found Lorene when I did and she suggested the Liver Care Program every morning. Within days, literally, of using the Liver Care Program, the rash was completely GONE! I could not believe my eyes.

Since then I have continued to use this regimen and will continue to do so forever. I can’t thank Lorene enough for her help and continued support in educating the public about an easy and natural alternative to some of our everyday problems.

Success Story

“Today I didn’t remember to do my liver cleanse before I left for work and I will tell you, I noticed a difference almost immediately! In fact, my co worker came up to me and said I just didn’t even look right, my eyes were glassy and I said I was feeling sluggish. Also, I was craving really really bad things…couldn’t get home soon enough to get the cleanse in my system! Already feel better! Amazing!”

Deb B.

Hmmm, if her body responded so quickly and powerfully to her NOT doing the morning liver care protocol, imagine what might be going on internally that she (and all of us) can’t see – and imagine the long-term benefits of caring for our livers!
