HEALING WITH THE ROOT OF THE BEET

As a 5 year dialysis patient and almost two year kidney transplant recipient and survivor, I have learned a lot about my body - the human body and the importance of certain vitamins, nutrients, physical and mental health. GOD KEPT ME and helped me to learn the importance of  self care and this knowledge; these are some things that have kept me alive, productive and positive throughout that very trying 5 years.


Most patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) are on dialysis due to diabetes.  I was an exception.  My cause of kidney failure was uncontrolled high blood pressure.  During my time on dialysis i was prescribed 4 meds for HBP. a friend of mine gave me some powdered beet root.  I started drinking 1 scoop in an 8 oz glass of water daily and whild on dialysis one day my pressure went so low, I couldn't hear and everything got black.  My pressure had gone down to 80/60!!!  Once they stabilized me I just sat there for about an hour. My pressure went up to 119/79 and they allowed me to go home.  They took me off Lipitor and another med and I've been off both every since. I believe it was the beet juice.


Fast forward post transplant, now my magnesium and potassium and all my numbers were great, but I stopped taking the mag because it gave me diarrhea. Just went right thru me. He told me how he fixes himself a cocktail of beet juice, magnesium and seltzer
water a few times a week to help him relax. (he doesn't drink alcohol)

INCREASE AND RESTORE GENERATIONAL WEALTH WITH AN IUL

What is IUL?

Indexed universal life insurance (IUL) is a type of permanent plan with a savings component. Unlike some traditional life insurance plans, indexed universal life insurance allows the policyholder more input on how the cash value grows. With indexed 


universal life insurance, you are able to place part of your savings in a standard, tax-deferred, cash-value account and segment another portion into an account that grows based on a chosen index.

This type of financial strategy is  most appealing to:

 Affluent or emerging affluent clients ages 30 to 65 years, looking for:

  • Higher returns on cash value
  • Permanent death benefit protection
  • Executive benefits and business planning
  • Supplemental savings
  • Long-term care coverage and living benefits
Maximum issue age:
  • Insured, 85 years
  • Owner, any age

FOCUS ON YOUR HEALTH - Magnesium Glycinate Supplement

 As we begin the year 2025, it is with enthusiasm for life, health,  productivity and financial freedom.  As we continue on our journey of HEALING, EMPOWERMENT AND RESTORATION, we increase in wisdom and age and our health begins to get our attention as our body goes through changes.

We have researched and partnered with specialists in the areas of the nutrients, vitamins and overall enhancements that can assist and aid our bodies in the transformation that comes with age.  

As a 5 year dialysis patient and almost two year kidney transplant recipient and survivor, I have learned a lot about my body - the human body and the importance of certain vitamins, nutrients, physical and mental health. GOD KEPT ME and helped me to learn the importance of  self care and this knowledge; these are some things that 
have kept me alive, productive and positive throughout that very trying 5 years.

After my successful kidney transplant, my magnesium and potassium were both dangerously low.  I was admitted back into the hospital 3 times to receive both intravenously.  The potassium was fine after the first 4 hour drip, but the magnesium needed an 8 hour drip weekly for the first month.

After my investigation (you have lots of time on your hands when recovering) I came to understand that there are different types of magnesium.  They were giving me Mag OXIDE which is not easily absorbed by the body.  It goes straight through you.  

Magnesium with Glycinate maximizes the absorption process giving your body maximum benefits of the magnesium.

This is the first of a series of posts that we will share to provide information about some of these nutrients and their benefits.  We will begin with
