"A careless word may kindle strife,
A cruel word may wreck a life;
A timely word may lessen stress,
A loving word may heal and bless."

“It's a fact that it is much more comfortable
to be in the position of the person who has been offended
than to be the unfortunate cause of it.”

DID YOU KNOW?
Spray nutrition works 10 times as fast
with 1/10 the amount! Because spray nutrition is absorbed
immediately in the back or side of your mouth, it doesn’t
depend on getting through the digestive processes. The active
ingredients are ingested (absorbed) into the body within seconds
– versus tablets, capsules and even liquid vitamins or supplements.
This is the key benefit to spray nutrition, which can be in
the form of multi-vitamins, immune support for colds, weight
loss, even anti-aging and energy formulas.
BENEFITS OF SPRAY NUTRITION
CONVENIENCE:
They are easy to use anytime, anywhere
because no water is needed! The dispensers fit neatly in your
purse or pocket.
HYGENIC:
Spray nutrition comes in an anti-microbial
container to deliver clean, sanitary and germ-free ingredients
directly from the container to your mouth.
PURITY:
They contain no fillers or binders, no
artificial coloring or flavors, no coatings or capsules –
only pure nutritional ingredients! They are excellent
for individuals with chemical or digestive sensitivities,
or for anyone who wants to avoid “extra” ingredients.
POTENCY:
Opening a bottle of pills causes oxidation
and the loss of nutritional value, which means you are not
getting the amount of nutrition you anticipated. With Spray
Nutrition, you get the potency you expect.
EASY TO TAKE:
No pills to swallow! Great for those unable
to swallow pills: infants, children, elderly, physically impaired,
those with digestive problems, and the sick.
FAST ACTING:
Nothing beats the absorption or speed of
spray nutrition! It works 10 times as fast with 1/10
the amount.
Spray nutrition is perfect to simplify
your life, to make packing for trips easier, and to keep on
hand for emergencies or natural disasters. Heartland

IN THE NEWS
From the
University of California, Irvine:
High-fat diet protects newborn brain from seizure damage,
study suggests
Irvine, Calif., February 28, 2003
Medical advice rarely supports a high-fat diet, but a team
of UC Irvine researchers has found that such a diet protects
newborn brain cells from damage caused by prolonged seizures.
New findings from a study on infant rats suggest that the
high-fat diet of newborns, and the related increased production
of a specific protein, protects their brain cells from damage
that otherwise may accompany prolonged seizures. The finding
may lead to new strategies to prevent brain injury in adults.
Seizures affect one in every 25 infants and children and over
one percent of all adults, where they may be associated with
progressive loss of brain volume. Therefore, understanding
how the immature brain prevents seizure-induced cell injury
or death could point the way for researchers to develop new
strategies aimed at preventing such damage in the mature brain.
Feed your brain! Get your “GOOD
FAT” from Heartland’s Golden Omega Flaxseed. Besides
super nutrition for yourself and your family, breastfeeding
babies can benefit too. Nursing mothers can provide
newborns with more high-quality essential fatty acids by consuming
flax as part of their regular diet. For more information,

ALKALIZING YOUR BODY
One of the best ways to make a food
alkaline is to sprout it! This is especially true
with beans.
You may not eat garbanzo “sprouts”
per se, but by sprouting them before cooking, they become
more alkaline and cook faster. Humus recipes can also
be made with raw garbanzo beans by sprouting the garbanzos
first. Many different kinds of seeds can be sprouted
and eaten as sprouts with a much wider variety of flavors
than just alfalfa sprouts. Try radish sprouts or broccoli
sprouts for a nice kick to your salad, and a powerhouse
of alkalinity. Also, almonds become more alkaline
by hydrating them (soak RAW almonds in water for 12 hours,
throw away the water, and enjoy an easier to digest, more
alkaline nut!)
ALKALINE HIGHLIGHT: Dried Beans*: aduki, black, broadbean,
garbanzo, kidney, mung, navy, pinto, red and white beans
all rate a 3.5. Lentils rate a 3.0.
ACID HIGHLIGHT: Sprouted Dried Beans. Sprout your
dried beans and they become alkaline-forming at a 5.0!
Mung beans and lentils make great sprouts for eating as
sprouts. Other dried beans cook faster and are easier
to digest by sprouting prior to cooking.
*Note: Dried soybeans and other soybean products rate slightly
alkaline-forming at a 4.5! Dried soybeans become a
6.5 after sprouting.
