New At High Vibe - Chaga Immortality Quest

Chaga Immortality Quest in Liquid Form from SurThrival 1.69fl oz (50ml)

Chaga is unique among medicinal mushrooms as it is known to be one of the most important anti-aging supplements yet discovered. Like all medicinal mushrooms, Chaga contains beta glucans, the non-linear complex polysaccharides that give Chaga extract its potent immune supporting properties.

Chaga extract is commonly known to have an extremely high ORAC value (anti-oxidant properties), even beyond that of blueberry extracts. In fact, Chaga may be the most potent anti-oxidant ever discovered. Immortality Quest Chaga extract is made from wild-crafted mushrooms and is a combination of both hot-water and ethanol extractions.

What is Chaga: Chaga (Inonotus obliquus; Family Hymenochaetaceae) is a parasitic fungus that frequently occurs on members of the birch family (Betulaceae).
Chaga is a parasite of trees, invading the host through a wound. It causes decay of the heartwood and will persist for 10–80 years (or more), producing usually 1–3 sclerotia on the main stem and branches of the tree (Lee at al. 2008). Whereas the sclerotium is perennial, the actual fruiting body occurs only once in the infection cycle and appears as a crust-like layers of pores. The fruiting body is produced on or near the sclerotium after the host or some portion of the host dies. Chaga is connected to the host tree, when the host dies, so does the chaga fungus.

A BRIEF HISTORY

Record of folk use of chaga as a medicinal fungus dates back to the 1500s and 1600s from northern Europe, Poland, and northern Russia. The water extracts were used for a variety of ailments, including stomach disorders, tuberculosis, and disorders of the heart and liver.

• Immune Modulator, can stimulate the immune response, suppress the immune response, and/or increase the tolerance of the immune system to an antigen.
  
  
• Antidiabetic, Chaga functions as an antidiabetic through lowering blood glucose levels
  
  
• Anti-inflammatory, tests have shown that Chaga significantly inhibited inflammation

Wonder in a Bottle

Miror means wonder...

…and Miror EPF certainly is a wonder in a bottle.

The unique, proprietary blend of amazing essential oils are recognizing the good cells in and on our bodies
and begin working to regenerate and rejuvenate them while breaking down and destroying the debris of every bad cell they come in contact with.

Despite its unrivaled ability to help the body eliminate pathogenic microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, and fungi, it’s so balanced that just about anyone can take it for daily support.

With antibiotic, antioxidant, antiviral and anti-fungal properties, Miror EPF assists the body in killing and removing pathogens…a gentle detox action, helping to maintain and restore healthy cells throughout the body.

Miror EPF is a biochemical breakthrough, it uses a proprietary solution of clove oil, mint oil, rosemary oil, thyme oil, plant ester, and eugenol, that could not be blended until now.

It is a non-toxic, 100% plant-based liquid, no additives, pesticides, fillers or preservatives.

It never expires and actually gets stronger over time.

It is unique and cannot be replicated- Two of the largest US labs have tried to reverse engineer it and were unsuccessful.

What Miror EPF does:

• It kills and instantly stops reproduction of bad bacteria (while leaving the good), fungi and viruses.
• It may promote healing and preserving tissue.
• Promotes and encourages the restoration and repair of unhealthy or damaged cells.
• The reason doctors can’t do anything for viruses is because viruses live inside of your cell’s walls, and medicine particles can’t penetrate those walls. Miror EPF is able to pass through the cell wall and break down any pathogens without leaving any residue. Miror EPF can kill viral infections in 12-48 hours, depending on how quickly you start using it.

• It is the only active ingredient that selectively attacks non-salt-based proteins without harming salt-based proteins. This enables Miror EPF to function as a powerful disinfectant and a healing agent - at the same time.

Miror EPF may help with:

• Eczema
• Athlete's foot
• Ulcers
• E. Coli
• Staphylococcus
• Salmonella
• Mold
• Psoriasis
• Warts
• Parasites
• Acne
• Synus infection
• Lyme Disease
• Hand Soap and Hand sanitizer
• Type 1 Diabetes
• For pure drinking water, add 1 drop of Miror EPF to an 8 oz. glass of water. This is excellent to do when the water quality may be questionable like in a restaurant, hotel, or on vacation.
• Candida
• Yeast infection
• Colds, cough and flu
• Eye infections - Tip: Dilute 1 drop of Miror EPF in an 8 oz. glass of water or it will sting.
• Bladder infection
• Skin Rashes, including Diaper Rash - Put a few drops of Miror EPF in bath water, or use Miror Face the Facts.

The Many Uses of Activated Charcoal Powder

Activated Charcoal Powder has anti-poison, astringent, and absorbent properties. It has been used as an anti-poison remedy for centuries. It works as an absorbent of toxins in the digestive system.

It can absorb a variety of particles and gases, which makes it ideal for removing potentially toxic substances from the digestive tract. Your stomach acid does not break down the Activated Charcoal Powder, so it is not absorbed by the body, but carries toxins out of the body in the feces.

Charcoal is made from coal, wood, or other substances. It becomes "activated charcoal" when high temperatures combine with a gas or activating agent to expand its surface area.

Activated Charcoal can be your perfect teeth whitener.
I know it’s hard to believe that a black powder can give you whiter teeth.
Try it for yourself by sprinkling a little bit on your toothbrush and brush, or add water and swish in your mouth and rinse.
It can also help to bind plaque.
It is also a great beauty helper for pimples. Simply mix it with a little bit of water to form a paste, apply and leave for 15 to 20 minutes and wash off.

Activated Charcoal is often used in fish tanks, and water and air filters for you home.
Put some Charcoal Powder into a small bowl and place it inside of your refrigerator to absorb any smells.

Charcoal may help you with:

• Poisoning
• Indigestion
• Heartburn
• Diarrhea
• Gas
• Colic
• Candida bowel disease
• UTI
• Insect bites, Poison Ivy
• Pink Eye
• Gout
• Hepatitis
• Morning sickness during pregnancy
• Preventing a hangover
• Jetlag

How to use:

General intestinal distress and gas:

Take one tablespoon stirred in a glass of water, up to six times daily (Children 1/2 tablespoon). Follow by a second glass of water. Note: best taken 2 hours before or after a meal.

Diarrhea: Take one tablespoon stirred in a glass of water upon notice or first complaint and again with each bowel movement. Follow with a second glass of water. Note: stool darkening is normal and may continue for a few days after use.

Red, painful, or swollen skin:
Wash area thoroughly. Mix charcoal with water to form a thick paste. Spread paste onto paper towel and then fold in half.
Position over afflicted area for 10 to 15 minutes or until swelling and pain stops. Repeat as necessary.

Keep Activated Charcoal out of reach of children and pets. Not for long-term internal use.
Contact your physician to determine if activated charcoal is suitable for you and may be taken with your current medication.

Avoid applying charcoal directly to open wounds.

Activated Charcoal is highly absorbent and may decrease the absorption and utilization of medication and food. Always allow 2 hours before and after using activated charcoal to eat, take or swallow medication.
Don’t consume charcoal together with dairy, as it lessens the effectiveness.
Do not put charcoal directly on skin, as it may end in a tattooing effect.

White Willow Bark - Nature's Aspirin

White Willow Bark is Nature’s answer for a natural pain relieve.

Willow bark’s pain relieving potential has been recognized throughout history. Willow bark was commonly used during the time of Hippocrates, when people were advised to chew on the bark to relieve pain and fever.

The salicin in White Willow Bark Extract is often thought of as a natural alternative to aspirin without the damaging effects that the latter may have on the body over time. Salicin and the other antioxidants that make up Willow Bark can also protect the body’s healthy cells from free radical damage. However, this extract is not intended to cure any specific illness or disease.

Studies and researches identify that Willow Bark can help with:

• Anti-inflammatory, Antipyretic, Antiseptic, Analgesic
• Immune boosting capabilities
• Headache, Toothache, Backache
• Osteoarthritis, Arthritis
• Rheumatory and inflammatory disorders
• PMS, Menstrual cramps
• Muscular pains and strains
• Cardiovascular disorders
• Cuts, wounds, burns
• Colds, flu and fever
• Painful articular (joint) conditions
• Carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis
• Wards off heart attack and stroke
• Prevents migraine headaches

Serving Size & Timing

It is suggested that this supplement be taken in a daily serving size between 400 and 1600mg. This maximum allowance should not be exceeded. This particular blend of extract contains at least 15% salicin.

Directions: As a dietary supplement, take 400mg (1/8 tsp) to 1600mg (scant 1/2 tsp) per day, or as directed by a physician. (15% salicin dosage)

Add 1/2 - 1 teaspoon of bark to a pot of boiling water. Brew for 10 minutes, strain and enjoy! White willow tastes bitter and astringent. To improve the taste, you can add lemon and sweetener of your choice. You can also mix it into an herbal tea.

Safety Tip Aspirin upsets some people's stomachs, but most herbalists say white willow bark rarely causes this problem. If stomach gets upset, nausea, or ringing in the ears develops, reduce your dose or discontinue use. Pregnant women and those with chronic gastrointestinal conditions such as ulcers, colitis, or Crohn's disease should not use this herb.

Salad is good for you!

This stunning dove knows what we are talking about!

A dear customer shared this amazing photo, that she took over lunch, with us and we wanted to share it with you.

That greens are one of the most important food groups is no secret.

Kale, collard, lettuce, mustard greens, dandelion, spinach, swiss chard, the variety is endless. Every green has a its own flavor and texture to explore.

One way to always enjoy eating your greens is to try mixing different greens together, and pimp it with extras and of course a delicious dressing.

Add vegetables to your salad, such as cucumber, bell pepper, carrot, parsnip, jicama, broccoli, brussel sprouts, radishes, beet etc.
Slice them, chop them, shred them, make it interesting and different.

Herbs and sprouts are extremely nutritious and will bring great flavor. Peppermint, cilantro, parsley, oregano, thyme, and sprouts such as sunflower, broccoli, alfalfa, bean, chickpea, radish, lentil etc.

Mix some Sea Spaghetti or Kelp Noodles under your salad.

Add nuts and seeds to your salad.
Almonds, pili, pecans, walnuts, macadamias, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds etc.

Another delicious add on are fresh and dried fruits, pick you favorites from cherries, raisins, cranberries, figs, mango, mulberry, caper berry, goji berry, and so on.

Add on and on top sprinkles: cheezehound cheese,  nutritional yeast, Rawmesan, spirulina and chlorella powder, sprouted nut and seed mixes, bee pollen, kale chips, raw cracker crumbles, coconut chips, olives and pickled garlic.

Complete your salad with a flavorful dressing. A creamy sauce, a light vinaigrette, mustard-, fruit or vegetable based.

Here are two very easy to make dressings for you:

Raw Vegan Caeser Dressing

This vegan inspired classical dressing is best served with romaine and kale, massage the kale with the dressing so the greens become softer.

1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked for two hours
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoon Bragg's Nutritional Yeast
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon mustard
1 tablespoon Nama Shoyu soy sauce
1 small garlic clove
1 tablespoon capers
salt and pepper to taste

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend till smooth.

Add some extra nutritional yeast on top or the amazing Rawmesan.

Cilantro Apricot and Mango Dressing

This dressing is great for kale and spinach alike. The fruits are nice balance of sweet and sour, and a fresh mango make it creamy.

1 fresh, ripe mango
5 dried apricots, cut into qarters
1 tablespoon Bariani olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
small handful of fresh chopped cilantro, or parsley

Peel the mango and place into your blender, add the apricots, olive oil and salt/pepper, blend till smooth.
Now add the cilantro and pulse.
