This month newsletter we will be focusing on How important supplements are and how it can affect your life. However, before beginning on this topic, I would like to greet each and every one with a happy holiday blessing.

Vitamins: What are they and what do they do?







Fast facts on vitamins

Here are some key points about vitamins.

There are 13 known vitamins.

Vitamins are either water-soluble or fat-soluble.

Fat-soluble vitamins are easier for the body to store than water-soluble.

Vitamins always contain carbon, so they are described as "organic."


What are vitamins?


A vitamin is both:

an organic compound, which means it contains carbon an essential nutrient that body cannot produce enough of and which it needs to get from food.

Fat-soluble and water-soluble


Vitamins are either fat-soluble or water-soluble.

Fat-soluble vitamins



Water-soluble vitamins


Vitamin C and all the B vitamins are water soluble.

Using Supplements to Help Fight Cancer

The main difference between chemotherapy and vitamin or herbal supplements is that most chemotherapy is designed to kill cancer cells, while most supplements are designed to strengthen the immune system so that it can then remove cancer cells. The hope is that, by creating an internal environment that is incredibly strong and healthy, cancer cells will not be able to thrive.

Today’s fruits and vegetables contain much smaller amounts of vitamins than they did a hundred years ago. This is due to pesticide use, a lack of trace minerals in the soil, and the harvesting of fruits and vegetables long before they are ripe in order to transport them across the country. Consider this staggering fact: today’s fruits and vegetables have up to 40% fewer vitamins and minerals than they did just 50 years ago. Given this widespread lack of minerals and nutrients in the food supply, you can see why supplements may be necessary for maintaining health in today’s world.

However, when it comes to the science, the jury’s still out. Sadly, this is because many herbal supplements can not be patented, and therefore large pharmaceutical companies have very little incentive to conduct research on them—because they would not be able to make money off them. Nevertheless, smaller studies have shown that various supplements do indeed have cancer-fighting properties. For example, numerous studies done on epigallocatechin (ECGC)—a compound found in green tea—have found that it actively kills cancer cells, while other studies have found that mushroom supplements such as “turkey tail” increase the number of natural killer cells in cancer patients. Additional studies have shown that high doses of vitamin C, high doses of turmeric spice, and daily doses of probiotics all help to boost the immune system’s cancer-fighting capabilities.










WORDS FROM publisher, Sheryl Malin

For a little over seven years, I have managed my cancer with a lifestyle change of eating organic as well as all products that I use. I have learned to exercise my body as well as mediate my mind. It is a state of body, heart and mind. With all of these and taking supplements, both my husband and I have survived cancer. Throughout the years I have been researching and educating others on the different kinds of supplements that are out there. For both my husband and I we have found out that Life Extension and USANA are the best quality on the market. I have been using both brands for seven years.

I have lately been researching a new type of supplement the seed. Soul, Core, Form. This product is taking the organic seed and cold pressing it into a mixture to boost your immune system up and detoxing your body. Dan and I have been taking it and hoping soon to slowly get off some of the supplements for more information go to http://www.myrainlife.com/thejourneytogoodhealth

UNTIL NEXT YEAR, Have a safe and merry holiday season. Blessings to all and all a good month.
