What does brown grass and green grass need? WATER!

The BROWN grass needs it to restore and grow back to its normal and healthy state. The GREEN grass needs it to stay strong, green and healthy. If you don't keep the water getting to the grass, its only choice is to respond to the lack of water by shutting down and going dead. This is a process and does not happen over night but it is a natural process that must take place because of the natural laws of life. It's the natural laws of supply and demand.

I love that it is a natural law of life because if I live in alignment with this law and I do my part in watering the grass I have every reason to expect a green lawn.

When you live with the natural laws of life you get health and healing. When you make choices that are out of alignment with the natural laws of life the consequences are sickness, disease and early death. God cannot make grass green with out water, He won't break His own natural laws that He created to keep order on this planet.

God needs no help running your life and body. He just can't have you and I interfering with it. He put an amazing power in our bodies and it's job is to feed power and life to every cell, organ, muscle and emotion in our body. Give your body 100% supply of power and it knows how to keep you strong and healthy for life. Neglect it and stop following the 5 essentials of Maximized Living, and just like shutting the water down to the grass, you are shutting down the power to every part of YOU.

HOW "THE HOLIDAYS" CAN KNOCK 25 YEARS OFF YOUR LIFE

   Once a large truck was driving through one of the busiest tunnels in New York City.  The truck was so large, in fact, that it got stuck in the tunnel and could not back up or move forward.  Traffic eventually got backed up for miles and miles.  Dozens of traffic, accident, bridge, road, and truck experts were on the scene for hours trying to figure out what to do.  Just as the situation and the frustration of the experts was beginning to get out of hand, a 10 year old little girl poked her head out of the window and said, "Why don't you just let the air out of the tires."  The dilemma was resolved. 

    THEME:  When life and the world aren't working out, re-assess everything!

 

     Even though Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years make up a total of 3 days, most people just call November and December "The Holidays."  And since it's "The Holidays," you can be irresponsible and careless.  You eat can mass quantities, put all sorts of horrible "Holiday" items into your body, exercise less or not at all, miss adjustments, spend too much, and put important things off because after all, it's "The Holidays."  In total, you end up with a 6-10 week reign of terror on your life and body.

     If you add to these two months all of the other times you tend to abuse your health like; parties, anniversaries, other "holidays," birthdays, weddings, weekends, secretaries day, etc., etc. you are basically being irresponsible for your health and many other areas of your life conservatively 3 months out of every year.  (25% of every year)

     By the time you are 40 years old, you will have spent 10 years doing serious, possibly irreparable damage to your body and possibly your whole life.  This is another reason why people are supposed to live to 100, but only make 75. (25% off)

    "The Holidays," are a time designated to celebrate the many joys of life and appreciate God's blessings.  However, they have become a time dedicated to shortening life and falling short of your God-given potential.  Clearly, it is time to look at "The Holidays" from a new perspective.

     Of the tens of thousands of sick and suffering people I have met, examined, and consulted, not once have I heard one of them say, "I wish I had done less for my health all of these years." 

     What they do say, in every case, is "I wish I had met you ____ years ago."

     WELL, you have met me, please take advantage of it.

 

   There is a famous Italian saying:  Sono divencete veccio Troppo presto, ma Furbo troppo tardi'        that means, "I got old too soon and smart too late."

 

Enjoy the Holidays (3, max 5 days).  Keep your family alive in the process

DUE TO THE EXTREME MENTAL, PHYSICAL, AND CHEMICAL STRESS BROUGHT ON BY "THE HOLIDAYS," PLEASE ADD, DON'T SUBTRACT FROM YOUR CURRENT ADJUSTMENT AND HOME SPINAL REHAB SCHEDULE.

 

Happy Holiday to you and yours From the Team ALC.

Top Ten Power Packed Foods by Dr. Troy

Top Ten Power Packed Foods by Dr. Troy M. Dreiling

What is the secret to a long and healthy life?  It is in the food that we eat.  As you well know, all foods are not created equal.  Choosing and eating the right foods may help increase your life expectancy as well as the quality of your life.

Here are ten of the top power packed foods designed to give you energy, vitality and all around good health!

1. Beans – If they give you gas, take precautions before you eat them.  Soaking them first can help.  Beans of all kinds (kidney, navy, lentils, chickpeas, Northern) are high in protein.  This is plant protein so it contains very little fat, carbs and calories.  If fiber is a problem in your diet, eating a healthy portion of beans each day can keep your digestive system healthy.

2. Oatmeal – Oatmeal is coming into popularity as a food that lowers blood cholesterol.  You can make it yourself with rolled oats or eat the instant kind if you are in a hurry.  Oatmeal is a filling grain that also provides much needed fiber to keep hunger at bay and your blood sugar constant. I LOVE steel cuts oats.

3. Fruits – Fruits are filled with antioxidants such as Vitamin C and A.  Antioxidants fight free radical damage in the body and reduce the risk of cancer.  Berries such as blueberries and grapes have the highest amount of antioxidants.  But choose an array of fruits in a wide variety of colors for maximum health.  The antioxidants in fruit boost the immune system to fight the effects of aging in the body.

4. Allium foods – This class of foods includes garlic, onions, leeks and shallots.  Garlic is known for lowering cholesterol.  Allium vegetables healp guard the body against the risk of cancer and many other ailments.  They also help lower blood pressure and prevent blood clots.  Eating these power packed vegetables in their natural state especially garlic increases their health benefits. 

5. Salmon – Eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids reduces the risk of heart disease and other conditions like atherosclerosis.  Wild salmon is a fatty fish but it contains good fats that has been proven to improve health in children and adults.  Salmon is rich in protein which is of great use after an exercise session to build muscle tissue.

6. Flax seed – Like salmon it contains omega-3 fatty acids.  These seeds also contain omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids.  You get a lot of power to fight high cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes with this seed.  Ground flax seed can be added to fruit smoothies, sprinkled in yogurt, eaten with cereal or added to pancake mix to name a few.

7. Peppers – Peppers are colorful.  They contain antioxidants like beta-carotene and Vitamin C.  Peppers range from mild and sweet to so hot you’ll be calling the fire department.  All peppers contain a substance called capsaicin.  Capsaicin has the properties of an anti-inflammatory, a pain reliever, lowers cancer risk and heart disease.  They are good in salads, salsa and all sorts of dishes.

8. Nuts and seeds – Nuts are high in fat but those fats are the good kind.  Peanuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, walnuts and pistachios are all providers of good fats and protein.  Crush them into a fine powder and use as a coating instead of higher carb bread crumbs.  Nuts help to lower cholesterol.  Eat them right out of the shell with no additives.

9. Açai – This berry has been in the news lately.  It is rich in antioxidants and increases energy.  You can get more done and look better while doing it.  You can get Acai juice and supplements in your health food store.

10. Yogurt – The fat free variety is good for you.  Yogurt contains calcium, Vitamin B, and protein.  If you don’t drink milk, yogurt is an alternative to get your calcium in to build strong bones and teeth.  Live yogurt also contains friendly bacteria to help promote a healthy digestive system. RAW is best if you must. Make your own with fresh berries. No premixes too much sugar.

Building a better healthier body begins with what you eat.  Try these super foods to get started on the right foot.  www.absolutelife.com

DOC, I didn’t come to the office to get adjusted because I was “SICK”

The staff and I hear this from time to time and it still continues to amaze me. We then look to ourselves and say, “did we not communicate to this person that whether you are feeling super or suffering from a healing challenge? One thing is true; you need to make sure your nerve system is free of physical pressure and stress.” Any time I feel my body is not working correctly, I always get an adjustment. Some times I needed 2 function-boosting adjustments to help my body deal with the health issues I faced. It always works out for the better. After my adjustment, my body begins to function and heal at a higher level. When patients follow this approach they report immediate results. Many patients are surprised when they say they can’t make it because they are sick and we respond with, “This IS The Best time to get ADJUSTED. Get here ASAP!!!”

I have heard countless reports that they are glad they came and got their “Power Turned On.” Many patients report only hours of discomfort instead of their “old” days or weeks of malaise. We are here to get you well and keep you well. Below are some of the Basic concepts to healing. No matter if the President declares a state of emergency on a virus for the first time in history; you need to understand the basics to healing. First of all it comes from inside you. Health and healing don’t come outside your body. After practicing for 15 years, I realize the one thing that will either hold you back or move you forward is YOU!!! You hold you back. When you begin to understand how powerful you are and that you have the awesome ability to overcome any challenges in your way the sky is the limit. The basic concepts must be understood and practice so that you can achieve your highest level of health possible.


HEALING BASICS
The brain and spinal cord run, coordinate, control, harmonize and govern every aspect of your health and your existence. God put the most amazing healing power in the brain and spinal cord. This power is what runs your body and heals your body. Without a proper functioning nerve system you CANNOT be well. In order for you to be well, the brain must be able to communicate with the body and its organs through the spinal cord, which is housed by your spine. If you want to be well, you need to keep your nerve system well. If you are “SICK”, or as we say at Absolute Life; “Expressing health”, then you absolutely want to get adjusted.  In clinical trial studies, getting adjusted has been shown to possibly boost immunity up to 400%. Patients report less “sick” time after being adjusted.

The top 10 actions you can take if your body is expressing health or “sickness”

1.    For goodness sakes, GET ADJUSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ASAP!!! Don’t think about it!!!
2.    This year the American Journal of Pediatrics released a statement that children and adults SHOULD NOT be taking “cold” medications. They have been shown to destroy the body and actually create dis-ease. Phenylpropylalanine, an active ingredient, causes strokes & seizures.
3.    “I have the flu and don’t want to expose your other patients to it!” Don’t worry, I and the other patients adhere to these top 10 actions. Remember, it is not the bug, it’s the terrain. I have people coughing and sneezing on me all the time, and never “catch” a thing. Spreading and catching illness & dis-ease is a myth and the most ridiculous concept ever fabricated!
4.    Get plenty of rest. SLOW DOWN and stop killing yourself. The reason your body is expressing health is because you have run it down and now it must try to mend itself in spite of you. Sleep a little, it won’t kill ya’J   LISTEN TO your Body.
5.    Drink plenty of clean water. ½ your body wt. in ounces is a good place to start. Add a green powder (Supergreens) and lemon. This will help with cleansing and detoxification. Stop eating dairy and sugar or anything that turns to sugar (request an e-mail version of the healing diet from the front desk). Sugar is fertilizer for bacteria, viruses, yeast, mold, cancer, and dis-eases of all kinds.
6.    Let your symptoms express themselves. Coughing, sneezing, headaches, shivering, diarrhea, etc. are all lifesaving mechanisms and are aiding in cleansing & detoxifying poisonous waste from your body. Symptoms are the way your body heals itself!
7.    Once you have your strength back, get moving! Movement will help in lymphatic drainage which aids in cleansing. Getting on a trampoline and gently bouncing is a great way to boost your immune system and push out toxins.
8.    THINK POSITIVELY! God gave you everything you need to heal. Fear and worry only make things worse. Have faith, you will heal! Your natural state is to express health.
9.    Pharmaceuticals poison the body. By nature, a drug makes the body acidic and toxic, which is the exact opposite of what your body is trying to achieve.
10.    Get outside. The body requires a daily supply of fresh oxygen as well as sunlight. The sunlight will help in immune system and vitamin D boosting efforts.

Are you toxic?….Yes you are…..

Are you toxic?….Yes you are…..
We just held our best makeover ever. Those of you that were there saw an amazing line up of healers dedicated to making the world a better place. We started our day with two world class athletes at a wrestling clinic at Heritage High School right here in Vancouver, Washington. Coach Mac was incredible from Heritage and his track record of training and coaching Olympians is awesome. I was in AWWWW, just watching Mr. Lee Kemp, 3 time world champion, and hearing his life story was breathtaking. It was an unbelievable honor to spend the day with him. Ms. Leigh Jaynes, who is training relentlessly for the 2012 Olympic team, was a refreshing spirit. She is the true American Hero and what a great person. I know she will take Gold in 2012 in London please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.  (Makeover PICTURES)

Many of you left going WOW where do I start or what do I do? My first goal of the makeover was to get you aware that the current health model is not working. I am currently reading Dr. Weston Price’s book “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.” An Eye opening story of the decline of human health and well being. After this weekend, it is even clearer to me that most people have no clue on what to do to get well and to stay well. 95% of all heath care dollars are spent on treating sickness and diseases. Only 5% is spent on health. That needs to change. Currently the average American spends approximately 5% on the promotion of health and wellness. This must change and is the entire focus of what we do and all the Maximized Living doctors’ main goal is to get you WELL and Keep you there for the REST of your life, not just when you have a health crisis or challenge.

I was watching CNN the other day at the gym on the treadmill and they were showing what the average American spends on health insurance each year. I was blow-away to find that it was over $15,000 per year and with the “New Proposed” plan in 2016 it will be in excess of 25,000.00. Many people are forced to get health insurance by an employer as a “benefit” but have to use the companies program. One of my patients said he is paying over $1,500 per month on a health insurance policy that he and his family rarely uses and he can’t get out of it unless he leaves his job. Paul Zan Pilsner wrote a book about what to do with insurance and I highly suggest you read it and apply the principals to your health and life.

Current trends show 30% of American obese and 60% overweight, what are we to do? With kids being sicker than ever and parents stressed more than ever, where do we start? Reducing the chemical stress burdens on your body is a great place to start. Anderson Cooper recently posted a video called, “Toxic Brew”. It is all about the chemical burdens being put on our bodies daily. You will get a glimpse of how all the “unregulated” and regulated chemicals are degenerating us at an alarming rate.

During the Maximized Living Makeover at the Vancouver, Washington Church of Christ I talked about the toxic top 10. I posted on my face book page, “Who wants to know about the toxic top ten?” Many people replied, “YES”, so here it is.

Toxic Top 10

1.    Dishwashing Detergent (Chlorine and Fluoride + PetroChem, Benzene, and Phosphates).

2.    Oven Cleaner (Lye and Ammonia).

3.    Laundry Detergent (Benzene – Causes Leukemia).

4.    Floor and Furniture Polishers (Petroleum Distillates).

5.    Air Fresheners (6 – Chemicals targeted by Gov. that hold the highest priority for neurtoxicity).

6.    Hard-surface Cleaners - especially kitchen cleaners (Petroleum Surfactants – Cancer).

7.    Antibacterial Cleaners and Soaps (Triclosan – Liver Damage).

8.    Dry Cleaning (Perc. Known Carcinogen).

9.    Carpet and Upholstery Cleaners (Perc.).

10.    Toilet Bowl Cleaners (Hydrochloric Acid – Liver and Kidney Damage).

Personal Care Products

 

Diethanolamine (DEA) is found in over 600 home and personal care products such as soaps, lotions, cosmetics, bubble baths, laundry and dishwashing detergents.

In 1997 the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicity Program found that when DEA was applied to the skin of rats, it resulted in clear evidence of carcinogenic (cancerous) activity.

 

Propylene Glycol is a substance used in antifreeze solutions and hydraulic fluids as a powerful solvent.  Ironically enough, it is also found in childhood vaccinations, cosmetics, toothpastes, shampoos, deodorants, lotions, and even processed foods (including pet foods).

Like DEA, Propylene Glycol has been shown in studies to be absorbed through the skin and cause many problems such as kidney damage, liver abnormalities, skin cell growth inhibition, damaged cell membranes, rashes, respiratory damage, immune system deficiency and central nervous system depression.[i]
[i]  Material Safety Data Sheet [MSDS]

 

 

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is perhaps the most common of the three chemicals and by no means any less toxic.  SLS is used as a surfactant to break down the surface tension of water. This degreaser is used in practically every soap, shampoo and toothpaste on the market today.

SLS has been used in studies to induce mutation in bacteria and to irritate skin.  It has also shown to enter the heart, liver, lungs and brain from skin contact, and has been proven to maintain residual levels once inside these organs.[i]

Supplements that Support
the Program - Whey

Whey

A very easily digested source of essential amino acids. Whey protein is the most bioavailable form of protein and has been found to be the superior form of protein for building muscle.

Helps you maintain and build lean muscle mass.

Add 25 grams as your protein source in your post workout meal.

 

Supplements that Support
the Program - L-Glutamine  

High-intensity training can drop normal glutamine blood levels by as much as 50%.

Supplementing with glutamine pre-workout has been found to reduce the post-exercise decline in blood glutamine levels.

Supplements that Support
the Program - Carnitine

Carnitine

Increased levels of Carnitine lead to increased levels of fat burning.

Carnitine also helps reduce cravings, improves energy and helps maintain muscle mass while losing fat mass.

Carnitine raises the lactic acid threshold thus potentially helping to reduce post exercise soreness.

Supplements that Support
the Program - L-Carnitine

Dose 3 grams (3,000mg) for ten days

One gram three times per day

Supplements that Support
the Program - Zinc

Zinc

An essential mineral that lowers adrenal response to exercise by
40-60%

Take 25mg before your workout.

Most Vegetables and Fruits Have 'Unacceptable' Levels of Pesticides

Most Vegetables and Fruits Have 'Unacceptable' Levels of Pesticides

Posted by: Dr. Mercola
October 13 2009 | 6,878 views

According to the European Pesticide Residues Committee, apples, peas, and grapes are sometimes covered in crop spray that is above the maximum levels allowed under EU law. The findings come from tests of more than 4,000 samples of food and drink.

The levels of pesticides varied considerably, with imported fruit and vegetables tending to have higher levels.

One in seven beans in a pod and one in five yams all had pesticides above the allowed level. One in 70 apples and pears had illegal levels of pesticides.

All of the vegetables and fruits supplied to schools contained pesticides within allowed levels, though nearly all the apples and every one of the bananas had some form of pesticide in them. Many of the pieces of fruit had more than one pesticide.

In the Maximized Living Custom Nutrition there is a 10 ten most toxic list and great recipes to administer better eating and less body burden. www.maximizedlivingdrdreiling.com
