Nutritional Support for our Immune Systems

This article is about how nutrition can support ones immune system. Most Americans do not eat a healthy diet, which results in increasing cases of serious health issues. In fact, in 2006 the CDC stated the leading causes of death in the United States were:

• #1 Heart Disease,
• #2 Cancer, and
• #6 Diabetes.

What is so astounding is that many of the health issues in America today are treatable and preventable by simply eating a balanced diet and using nutritional supplements.
After reading this article you will have a better understanding of the following points:

1. Sources of nutritional support;
2. How through nutrition you can prevent health issues;
3. How proper nutritional support helped one women deal with Post Polio Syndrome.

Supporting our immune system is crucial for optimal defense against invading bacteria, germs, viruses, etc. Some parts of the Immune System include our thick skin, mucus in our eyes, nose and throats, and acid in stomach. All these defense systems capture many of these invaders and destroy them before they can make us sick.
In addition to these defenders our body has thousands of specialized cells to capture and eliminate threats.
The Immune System is a complicated system of defense that requires energy to be effective. Optimal energy comes from proper nutrition and rest. When either get out of balance our body is at risk for developing some sort of infection. Even worse long term imbalances can lead to serious physical damage to our body like diabetes.
As stated earlier the leading causes of death in the US are #1 Heart Disease, #2 Cancer, and #6 Diabetes all have a strong link to diet and poor nutrition. When the immune system is compromised people get sick.
For Americans it is possible to eat balanced and nutritional meals, but we like our fast foods, white sugar, white flour, and bakery goods too much. See Our foods have all the nutrition we need but...
I have a very good friend who early in life was diagnosed with Polio. Through tenacity she overcame many of the effects of the disease and had a very active and interesting life. However, about 10 years ago she began having problems with muscle pain, headaches and balance. Here is her story of how a nutritional supplement made a difference:

When Kathy introduced nutritional support for her Post Polio Syndrome, she slowly re-emerged as a healthy and vigorous person and 10 years later has an extremely active lifestyle (worl travel, speaks at woman's conferences, and plays an active role in a larger national community of like minded people.)
Proper nutrition plays a significant role in creating a healthy immune system. Many infections and serious diseases are not manifested when the Immune System is healthy.
While we can get plenty of nutrition from eating a properly balanced diet, we just don’t. One way of getting proper nutritional support is through supplements.

A Great Lesson for Network Marketers

Just how do Network Marketers differentiate themselves?

Several weeks ago the husband of one of my Network marketing friends was laid off. Of course it was unexpected but the economy is hurting a lot of people everywhere and being a professional is no protection.

As she told me her story, I thought: No big deal - Sandra has been in this business for 9 years, has an established down line, and as a part-timer earns a respectable $35k per year.

Then, the "Rest of the Story" began to unfold.

Yes her down line was there, and yes she had lots of customers, but...

Over the past 2 or 3 years Sandra admitted to not doing the necessary follow-up with her down-line or her customers. So it turns out that the $35k was more like $25k and dropping.

Man, this is a problem for every Network marketer I know. After awhile, we begin to get too comfortable and ignore the very things that made us successful. You should never stop doing the things that made you a success.

Most of know that the customer is not really buying a/the product. The customer is buying an experience.

• I purchased these health products for improved health - An Experience
• I bought the flat screen TV so I could see Football in HD - An Experience
• I purchased these products from Sandra because she makes sure I take them properly and always asks about how I'm doing -- Another Experience.

So, by not servicing you customer you are denying them An Experience which ultimately ends up in lost revenue.

Sandras' story fortunately is turning around, she is re-connecting with her down line and customers and guess what? Her business is growing.

Remember Service is the Key. Know your customer and give them what they want -- An Experience.
