How can a Gut and Metabolic Formula be enhanced to help Special Needs Children?

gut and metabolism health of special needs childrenMetabolism is about how a child’s body creates energy, fights disease, and keeps them alive and thriving. It’s the system behind the scenes that controls almost everything – energy levels, hormones, heart health, and even the brain.

With Special Needs children it is harder for their bodies to absorb nutrition due to a compromised gut. The gut wall is thus less permeable, and the blood-brain barrier is less permeable, and the nutrition molecules have difficulty passing through.

ERDS™ (Enhanced Rapid Delivery System) works to enhance the nutritional formulas because it improves solubility and absorption. ERDS is a special formulation of vitamins that increases the body’s ability to absorb more of the nutrition available.

ERDS is a proven to be a safe and effective method of improving this absorption and bioavailability of poorly soluble materials. The molecules of most nutrients are too large to be well absorbed by the cells.

The extract in ERDS can make the molecules in the nutritional ingredients smaller and of a shape that is more permeable and able to pass through:

•Intestinal lining

•Blood brain barrier

•Cellular lining.

This means that when ERDS is added to any source of nutrition it increases the amount of nutritional uptake (you get more of the available nutrition into your cells) and also the speed in which the nutrition is absorbed by the body is increased.

TEKNON includes ERDS™ (Enhanced Rapid Delivery System).

It will essentially increase the activity and get more of the Teknon into the gut. It will be able to permeate a variety of cell membranes including the gut, eyes, mouth and skin.

In the gut, malabsorption can also be caused by the rejection of certain compounds by the cells. Teknon enhanced by ERDS inhibit this rejection, and thus improving absorption through the gut wall.

Teknon is based on scientific studies to allow the body to have natural ingredients that have been found to support an optimum metabolism.

Teknon is a natural nutritional supplement to improve metabolism and gut health. ERDS is made up of special extracts of Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Vitamin A and Vitamin D3. Teknon also includes B1, B2, B6, calcium, iron, magnesium and potassium

ERDS is part of the Teknon formula and so it increases the nutrition available from the ingredients in the Teknon formula.

Elderberry Benefits for Your Health

health benefits of elderberryI heard a commerical for a drug that was designed to stop a virus from replicating.   Really, I thought, why not just use elderberry.   I knew that was what elderberry did.

Next time I went to the Market at the Oyler’s Organic Farms, I remembered that they had elderberry syrup for sale.  I bought some.   Then some how after taking it I realized my tree pollen allergy got so much better that I hardly remembered I had that allergy.  Hmm.

So I did some checking on all the things that elderberry has in it vitamin wise and all the benefits it has for your health.

Effects of Stress on the Immune System, what you can do.

Stress has emotional and physical consequences. Most of us are familiar with feeling some degree of anxiety when we face a stressful situation. However, the physical effects of stress are not as well known.

As we need to rise to meet a challenge, a little stress in life can be inspiring, but if life or a life event exceeds our capacity to cope, it can cause emotional and physical problems.

Stress prompts the body to release cortisol, the primary hormone of tension in the body. Increased blood cortisol levels change how our body’s immune system reacts to infections. Long-term and chronic stress leads to persistently elevated cortisol levels. The presence of cortisol in the bloodstream for a prolonged period reduces the effectiveness of the immune system by reducing the white blood cell count.

These effects result in chronic infections, chronic autoimmune inflammatory diseases, cancers, and other physiological disorders.

As the pandemic continues, many individuals have encountered more stress than usual. Nearly 8 in 10 adults suggest a significant cause of stress in their lives is the coronavirus pandemic.

Why does bad news often precede illnesses, coughs, and common colds?

Bad news causes us to feel stressed, which in turn weakens the immune system. So, we are even more vulnerable to germs we are exposed to at that moment and we often become sick.

Health conditions due to long-term exposure to stress

The National Institutes of Health says that continued stress on your body from everyday triggers is often the most difficult to identify but could lead to serious health issues such as:

● Heart disease

● Diabetes

● High Blood Pressure

● Cancer.

Studies also uncovered many other stress-related health concerns, such as the risk of obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, stomach disorders, and asthma, which tends to worsen or increase due to stress.

What Can You Do?

For a long and healthy life, it’s vital to focus on supporting your immune system on an ongoing basis. One of the best ways to do this is with natural, powerful immune system boosters contained in camel milk.

In the serum of camel milk, a completely new class of immunoglobulin has been discovered, which is fundamentally different from all other previously known antibody classes. Cameloid Immunoglobulins (only found in camels, llamas, alpacas, vicunas, and guanacos) are used by the immune system for easy and quick targeting of foreign substances. This is one of the ways camel milk strengthens and supports the gastrointestinal immune system.

Flu Activity is High this Season? What can be done?

There is a lot of talk this year about how bad the flu is, they even report on the news of  the deaths.   The actual numbers vary greatly depending on  you are talking to?   And which “news” station you listen to.  But getting the flu is never pleasant.    Of course, they are also talking about getting a flu shot?   Does that work?

I’ve heard from many people how they got the flu shot and still got the flu, but then the answer has been, it would have been worse if they didn’t get the flu shot.   I’m skeptical.  I know one person who rarely gets sick much less gets a flu, but her doctor talked her into getting one this year.  Yes, she got sick.

Whatever you think about this, you should some information to help with the flu if you do get it (or even if you get a cold)

Here is our article on Flu

And, of course, the right thing to do is build a healthy immune system
