A testimony to the powerful healing properties of Young Living Essentail Oils that I felt must be shared! Autism has become too prevelant in our children and the medical community is stumped on why and what to do. Drugs are not the answer!! These oils perform healing miracles everyday....this is just one!
As the mom of a 5 year old autistic grandson given to us by the courts at
the age of 3 months, you can imagine how hard it was to watch our new son
begin to exhibit signs of autism between 2 and 3 years of age. Our first
signs something was wrong was a lack of bonding with us which we thought was
probably due to the abuse. He did not want to be held, he wanted to be alone
and he would not look at you when you tried to talk with him. We later
learned this is also a trait of autism.
He was obsessed with things that turn. He would spin everything. As he
neared 3 years of age, he became very fixed on things. You could not get him
to look at you by calling his name, by trying to bribe him with a toy, or by
calling to him in a louder voice. The only way you could get his attention
was to physically go to him and touch him.
He would not talk to us. His only words were sentences he memorized from
movies. He appeared to live in his own little world. I resisted for several
months the idea of taking him to a doctor that could possible diagnose our
problem. He saw his regular doctor very, very often. He constantly had sore
throat, congestion, runny nose and earaches. He seemed to be on antibiotics
every few weeks. Our doctor saw the possibility of autism in his behavior
and sent him to a specialist.
She confirmed our fears after evaluating him. She said he was in a “highly
functional autism spectrum” and felt he should immediately be enrolled in an
Early Intervention Program. We enrolled him in PPCD in our school district.
A friend suggested I research essential oils to treat him with instead of
all the antibiotics he was taking.
After research we found that Young Living products were the best available.
We began by putting 2 drops of Thieves on his feet every night; using R.C. &
Eucalyptus Blue on his chest for congestion and peppermint diluted in his
navel for temperature. We used Peace & Calming & Lavender to calm him and
Di-Gize as needed for constipation. We put Frankincense above his eyebrows
and on his upper spine and Brainpower on his temples every morning before he
left for school. Between age 4 and 5, he only saw his doctor a few times. If
I could not figure out what was wrong I would take him in for a diagnosis
and then treat him with Essential Oils.
Noah was very intelligent. He knew every Thomas Train, had watched every
Thomas video made and memorized anything he heard. He could repeat large
dialogues of movies as he played with his trains. He could count to 150 by
2’s, 5’s and 10’s at the age of 4. He knew his phonic sounds and could spell
over 40 words including all of the colors. He knew his ABC’s but would not
consider holding a pencil to learn to write. He would talk to himself for
hours playing, but his vocabulary was memorized sentences from movies. He
could not tell us if he was hungry or if he was thirsty. He was still not
potty trained at age 5. He did not react to pain nor could he tell us where
he hurt. He angered easily.
In January of 2009, I read “Children with Starving Brains” , A Medical
Treatment Guide for Autism Spectrum Disorder, by Jaquelyn McCandless, MD. It
told about how many autistic children do not have the enzymes to process
their food. Many autistic children have been put on a gluten-free,
casein-free diet. If this has worked for you, then I admire you. We tried
and finally after losing several of his precious pounds, decided that there
had to be another way. After researching and going to a Young Living
Convention, I found Mightyzyme’s, a product that supplies a child’s body
with enzymes to break down foods. With this info, I decided to try it. I
hate to admit it but it was a hit and miss proposition. Slowly we began
seeing improvement. He became more loving. He wanted to be held. He began to
come and get us by the hand and take us somewhere to get something for him.
In April 2009, we put him in “unders” instead of a diaper during the day. He
began to ask people their name. The end of May 2009, I made the commitment
to give him 3 Mightyzymes a day every day. By the end of June, it seems he
burst out of his shell. He began talking in a conversational method. His
first sentence that just blew me away was “Mommy, cook me some food.” I knew
that was not from his movie. Today is July 28, 2009 and Noah is beginning to
ask questions, answer questions and carries on some normal conversations. He
has become very loving and wants us with him, to play with him, to watch
movies with him, to read with him. The first part of July we quit putting a
night diaper on him. We are seeing him become a little person that can
interact with us. He can now tell me what he wants to eat, tell me his toe
hurts, tell me that I can’t go to work today because there is a thunderstorm
outside. We are still at awe at the 60 day improvement we have seen.
I believe Young Living Mightyzyme and their essential oils have played a
huge part in the progress we have seen with Noah. I realize we may have a
long way to go, but the progress we have seen is so promising and it is such
a small step to try. Perhaps you may not see the extreme results we have
witnessed with Noah, but it is worth the try.

GENERATIONRX
International award-winning filmmaker Kevin P. Miller "delivers a jaw-dropping emotional ride," and "weaves a terrifying tale of criminal conspiracy, the mass abandonment of medical ethics, and the betrayal of an entire generation." By employing the expertise of internationally respected professionals from the fields of medicine, ethics, journalism, and academia, GENERATION RX investigates collusion between drug companies and their regulatory watchdogs at the FDA and focuses on the powerful stories of real families who followed the advice of their doctors - and faces devastating consequences for doing so.
For decades, sores of doctors, government officials, journalists, and others have extolled the benefits of psychiatric medicines for children. GENERATION RX presents "the rest of the story" and unveils how this era of unprecedented change in Western culture really occurred - and what price has been paid by our society. Ultimately, GENERATION RX may help parents decide whether the perceived benefits of these medications outweigh the serious risks to children.

The Future of Food
There is a revolution happening in the farm fields and on the dinner tables of America -- a revolution that is transforming the very nature of the food we eat.
THE FUTURE OF FOOD offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have quietly filled U.S. grocery store shelves for the past decade.
Shot on location in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, THE FUTURE OF FOOD examines the complex web of market and political forces that are changing what we eat as huge multinational corporations seek to control the world's food system. The film also explores alternatives to large-scale industrial agriculture, placing organic and sustainable agriculture as real solutions to the farm crisis today.
Created by Deborah Koons Garcia and Lily Films, The Future of Food is the first of a series of documentaries Lily Films plans to produce dealing with the current issues influencing our food, environment and agriculture.
Please support Lily Films by logging onto www.thefutureoffood.com to purchase the entire 88 minute film and ensure that this vital message is spread throughout the world.

Monsanto & Milk
NEWS Reporters (Reporters Steve Wilson & Jane Akre) uncover that most of the Milk in the USA and across some parts of the world is unfit to drink due to Monsanto Corporation's POSILAC®, which has been proven to be a cancer-causing growth hormone.(known in short as "BGH" "BST" or "rBGH" ), but they were fired for trying to tell people the truth.
(Important note: After a long court battle, the Court dismissed the whistle blowers protection for the reporters because the Court stated that there was no law to force that the NEWS state the truth! Fact! Going on to say the NEWS was no different than other TV shows/reality shows!!)
But the FDA has turned a blind eye once again!
If you consumed or fed regular milk to your family today (8/21/08), there is more than a 90% chance that it was from a cow injected with BGH
(Bovine somatotropin developed by using recombinant DNA technology).
You could be killing or harming your child every time you pour them a glass of milk, the same as pouring them a glass of slow acting poison.
Please take action to ensure our children's safety, for they can not protect themselves.
What first alarmed farmers was the massive amount of PUS in the milk but Monsanto and the FDA still had no concerns by stating that the PUS was not harmful to be ingested by consumers!
If you have little children, at least feed them certified BGH free Milk, Organic Milk or Organic/BGM free milk equivalent like Organic soy milk.

Toxic Body and Disease
Toxic Body and Disease
Everyday more and more people are being diagnosed with chronic health problems. Approximately 68 million people suffer from some form of heart disease, 25 million have diabetes, 1.5 million will die of cancer within the next year, 5-8% of the population suffers from a chronic, debilitating autoimmune disease, 57.7 million suffer from some mental disorder, and over 6 million are diagnosed with a neurological disease.
Alzheimers has more than doubled since 1980, every week 200 people are diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, diabetes has increased over 54% and the rate our children are being diagnosed with Autism, ADD and ADHD is alarming. So, what the heck is going on?
Our problem is not singular, meaning there is no one thing that we can identify as the problem. It is a combination of many things that has resulted in the decay of our health in the United States. Let's start with our environment.
In the last century we have created over 80,000 chemicals and every year, four billion pounds of these toxins are released into our environment. Our air, soil, animals, plants, water, and our bodies are being contaminated. Our bodies are being poisoned by these carcinogenic, endocrine-disrupting, and gene damaging chemicals and they are being stored within our cells. Do you realize that these toxins have the ability to be passed to fetuses in the womb? A fetus grows in a womb contaminated with as many as 287 foreign chemicals and the level of mercury in umbilical cord blood is 1.7 times higher than the level in the mother's blood. Thousands of babies born each year are at risk for brain damage and learning difficulties due to the toxin exposure while in the womb. Do you think there could be a correlation with these facts and the ever increasing numbers of Autism, ADD and ADHD diagnosis in our children?
It is a proven fact that cancer is caused by environmental toxicity and it affects our immune, neurological and endocrine systems. This toxicity can lead to numerous health problems including allergies, neurological illnesses, immune dysfunction, reproductive dysfunction, mood changes, asthma, autoimmunity, allergies, sexual dysfunction and dysregulation of glucose.
Mercury, the most destructive of these toxins can cause neurological, immunological, psychological and enzymatic issues. It can contribute or cause autism, Alzheimer's, cancers, heart disease, autoimmune disease, endocrine problems as well as neurological and behavioral issues.
It has been proven that there is a direct link between these toxins that are stored in our organs and tissues and disease causing microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses. The stored toxins result in immune system deficiency which is the perfect environment for the growth of these pathogens. The higher the toxic pollution, the more likely the body's immune system will be compromised and these microorganisms will thrive and multiply.
The next issue to be addressed is our food sources which have become so compromised that no one can get the recommended whole food nutrition that our bodies require. Are you familiar with genetically modified foods? There are no labels to advise us as a society what we are eating; it is to the benefit of these "genetically modified" food companies to keep the consumer ignorant.
Many scientists believe that many chronic illnesses and diseases and the weakening of the immune system may be a result of these biotechnological altered foods. This could account for innumerable cancers, the unexplained auto-immune diseases such as CFS, Fibromyalgia, Epstein-Barr Syndrome to name a few, as well as chronic headaches, migraines, even arthritis and other chronic inflammatory diseases. No one knows for sure what the long term effects will be on the human body. No one knows for what the long term effects will be on our future generations.
The facts known and documented are only on the effects of the animals being injected with this DNA altering technology. Some cows and pigs injected with growth hormones have suffered from unspeakable nervous system side effects, unable to walk or even stand. Some are so grossly large that they suffer respiratory distress and skeletal breakdown. DNA altered fish have produced offspring with birth defects and chickens that have been altered to extinguish the brooding instinct have exhibited aggressive behavior. Even our wildlife is being put at risk with genetic altered grains and the escape of genetic altered fish into our streams and rivers. This genetic revolution has not been observed in a real ecosystem with real organisms and there could be an ecological catastrophe or alarming disease.
Our food is void of nutrition as well. Our food processing has removed vitamins, fiber and other essential nutrients from the foods we eat. Nutrition is important to a healthy life. Good nutrition provides antioxidants, micronutrients and the fuel our body needs for optimal health performance. It is recommended that adults should eat 7-13 servings of fruits and vegetables per day depending on their age, gender and physical activity. These Whole Foods support the immune system, reduce oxidative stress, and help protect our DNA and impact key indicators of cardiovascular wellness.
Right up into the early 1900's, just about all diseases were infectious in nature, for example; diphtheria, typhoid, smallpox, pneumonia, black plague, tuberculosis, etc. With our progression as a civilization the way our food and farming was processed changed and new diseases began to manifest, for example; cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, etc. The more modern our civilization has become, the more new diseases have manifested. Today, the following diseases are regularly diagnosed such as, arthritis, IBS, bi-polar, fibromyalgia, schizophrenia, hyperactivity, ADHD, allergies, depression, etc. Our food processing has removed vitamins, fiber and other essential nutrients from the foods we eat. Nutrition is important to a healthy life. Good nutrition provides antioxidants, micronutrients and the fuel our body needs for optimal health performance. It is recommended that adults should eat 7-13 servings of fruits and vegetables per day depending on their age, gender and physical activity. These Whole Foods support the immune system, reduce oxidative stress, and help protect our DNA and impact key indicators of cardiovascular wellness.
We are also being subjected to a "dangerous substances" in our food. Our families may be eating or drinking products without being aware of the potential damage they are having on your health. Chemicals and additives are used in preserving and enhancing the flavor of foods and drinks. We are led to believe they are safe and sometimes even beneficial to weight management.
One of these sneaky substances is known as "Aspartame", or the technical name for NutriSweet, Equal, Spoonful and Equal-Measure. Aspartame has been marketed to the public as a "diet aid" but the chemical nature of this substance defeats this alleged purpose by instilling a craving for calorie-laden carbohydrates. How many times have you seen someone washing down their "high carb" meal with a diet drink? When carbohydrates are consumed, there is an increase in levels of the chemical called serotonin in the brain. This increase is what gives the feeling of being relaxed after a meal.
When that meal is being washed down with an "aspartame" (diet) drink, the brain ceases to produce the serotonin, and that feeling of "having enough or being full" never materializes. The result is more food (which also may contain aspartame), more aspartame (diet) drinks and the cycle continues. Aspartame directly alters brain chemicals.
Aspartame can be found in thousands of products:
Instant breakfasts
Breath mints
Cereals
Laxatives
Sugar free gum
Cocoa mixes
Frozen desserts
Gelatin desserts
Juice beverages
Multivitamins
Shake mixes
Soft drinks
Tabletop sweeteners
Tea beverages
Instant teas & coffee
Wine coolers
Yogurt
Pharmaceuticals
OTC medications
Supplements
If brain chemicals are being altered by this substance it only goes without saying that behavior is affected as well. The reduction in serotonin levels in the brain can manifest into depression and other emotional disorders. Research has suggested that people ingesting high doses and who are sensitive to aspartame may suffer from problems ranging from dizziness, to subtle brain changes, to mental retardation. This data also shows that a fetus may be at risk for these effects as well. There is also evidence of aspartame contributing to brain cancer. There is concern for persons with diabetes and hypoglycemia. Research conducted by a specialist reports that aspartame leads to the precipitation of clinical diabetes, causes poorer diabetic control, on insulin or oral dependent drugs, leads to aggravation of complications such as retinopathy, cataracts, neuropathy and gastro pareses and can cause convulsions.
The following are some of the symptoms of "Aspartame Sensitivity/Intoxication": blurred vision, severe headaches, nausea, gastrointestinal disorders, mood changes, ringing in the ear & hearing loss, loss of energy, loss of control of limbs, blindness, memory loss, slurred speech, hyperactivity, muscle & joint pain, loss or change of taste, vertigo, insomnia, mild to severe depression, seizures, rashes, anxiety attacks, skin lesions, and symptoms mimicking a heart attack. These symptoms can be moderate to severe in each individual depending on their sensitivity level. Aspartame changes brain chemistry. It also acts as an information transmitter, known as a neurotransmitter. Too much aspartame in the brain kills certain neurons triggering excessive amounts of free radicals which kill your cells or put in another way, they "excite" or simulate your neural cells to death. When a substantial number of these neurons are destroyed, clinical symptoms of a chronic illness may begin to manifest.
The following chronic illnesses have been shown to be contributed to by the long term exposure to "stimulated" neuron damage. Multiple Sclerosis Parkinson's Alzheimer's Memory or Hearing Loss Hormonal Problems Epilepsy AIDS Brain Lesions Neuroendocrine Disorders ALS Hypoglycemia.
The next subject to address is our water supply. Once again we will need to address chemical pollutants resulting from farming and industry as well as the chlorine that is added to kill bacteria. Bottled water is not much better as it is usually nothing more than processed tap water. Even that expensive spring water may be full of harmful contaminants. Common methods of purifying can remove the chemicals but it also removes the important minerals our bodies need. Did you know that our water contains pharmaceuticals? Many people flush their unused or outdated medications down the toilet and what do you think happens to that water after it is flushed….it is treated for bacteria and other pathogens and then routed back into the water system. That next glass of tap water may contain the chemicals from someone's medicine cabinet which could be harmful to you or your family's health.
Proper hydration is essential to a healthy life. Even the best filtration systems will not be able to remove the pharmaceuticals from your water and reverse osmosis and distilled water are void of necessary minerals that our body's need during the purification process. Well water can be potentially harmful due to the seepage and run off of chemicals used in farming, lawn and garden care. Rainwater is no less safe as it passes through our contaminated polluted atmosphere.
The last thing I would like to address are pharmaceuticals. I wonder if you have connected the dots in this article. I mean, really, our environment, our food, our water, what do they all have in common? They are creating human toxic bodies and what are these human toxic bodies creating…disease! And who is benefiting from these diseases? You guessed it, the pharmaceutical companies. I will be the last person to say that we don't need medications because we do. Without them we would not have rid ourselves from some of histories deadliest diseases. So yes, we do need drugs but are these drugs being manufactured to treat the diseases or are the diseases being created to promote the manufacturing of the drugs? It's obvious the drugs aren't curing the disease. It's also obvious that there is no one interested in finding the cure or cause of the disease. The drugs are being manufactured to treat the symptoms and the symptoms are not the disease. The profit is in the treating of those symptoms, it is not in the cure. The profit is in the prescribed drug that results in more prescribed drugs to relieve the side effects until you are suffering the "side effect" roller coaster. By the time you get to this point, who knows what the initial cause of the symptom were or for that matter, who can remember.
We have become an "instant society". We want more by doing less and we want it now! We don't stop to think of the consequences, we don't have time to wait on food, we want it fast. We don't have time to wait on Mother Nature she is too slow. If there is a drug problem in our society we are all to blame because we are all chemically dependent! We are chemically dependent for our food, our water, our health. Everything we use or eat or rely on in our daily lives is dependent on chemicals, and now, that chemical dependency is coming back around and it is killing us.
So, have you thrown your arms up in despair? Is all this information just too overwhelming? As someone once said to me, "Ya gotta die from somethin". Is that the attitude you will take after reading this article? Are you so chemically dependent that you would rather die than find the patience to live? Isn't it ironic that the very technology that sustains us is also what is killing us! If you are willing to take the time, there are answers out there but they won't be quick and they may not be easy. You just may have to work at being patient in order to eat, live and breathe a healthy life!

If you are willing to take the time, there are answers out there but they won't be quick and they may not be easy. You just may have to work at being patient in order to eat, live and breathe a healthy life!

Anti-Viral Product of the Month
Advanced Cellular Silver (ACS) 200® - Anti-fungal, Bactericidal, Anti-viral
The Leading Immune System Formula ACS 200® has been proven capable of rapidly killing an enormous array of disease causing organisms; literally oxidizing the cell wall of gram positive and gram negative bacteria as well as naked virus, fungus, and all without damaging human tissue. When choosing an antimicrobial product, safety and efficacy are the only two factors that truly matter. ACS 200® provides 200 parts per million of uniquely energized silver molecules that range in size from 0.04 microns down to nanometer, which are suspended in wetter water®; a proprietary micronutrient transport medium that is 43% lower in surface tension, enabling a more rapid penetration through all biological systems. Prepare for Success. No single infection control protocol will provide a more effective treatment or prophylaxis than can be achieved using ACS 200®, proven the most powerful antimicrobial available to physicians today.
Advanced Cellular Zeolite (ACZ) nano® - Eliminates Heavy Metals, Neurotoxins, Free RadicalsACZ nano®
Intra-oral spray represents the forefront in chelation technology. Zeolite is a naturally occurring crystal formed from volcanic ash over 300 million years ago. This crystalline compound has a cage-like, honeycomb structure, which is negatively charged and therefore attracts and captures harmful, positively charged substances. With each dose of ACZ nano®, near countless numbers of sub micron size zeolite crystals enter the body as energized, negatively charged cages. As these crystal cages travel through the blood stream, positively charged toxins attach to the zeolite crystal cages in an action similar to a magnet attracting iron filings. These toxin filled cages then pass naturally out of the body after only 5 to 7 hours. ACZ nano® employs nano size and significantly greater number of zeolite crystals per dose providing 250 times the effective surface area of competing zeolite products.
To effectively address Toxic Body Burden of harmful toxins and infections, Results RNA® has created Total Body Detox® comprising two revolutionary Intra-oral spray formulas called Advanced Cellular Silver (ACS) 200® and Advanced Cellular Zeolite (ACZ) nano®. The most effective antimicrobial available to practitioners, ACS 200® is anti-fungal, anti-viral and bactericidal, achieving complete kill against Candida, Rhino Virus and MRSA in less than 3 minutes.
A breakthrough in chelation, ACZ nano® selectively and irreversibly binds and expels toxic heavy metals, neurotoxins and free radicals. Proven independently in urine challenge studies, ACZ nano® has been shown to increase urinary output of mercury, lead and other toxins by over 300%. Enhance the healing power of your practice with an unparalleled solution for total body detoxification. Add rRNA-based nutraceuticals to provide exceptional nutrition
