How to Handle Growth Spurts in Children

During growth spurts, children are more susceptible to colds, ‘flu, childhood diseases - and even polio!

Why is this?

Believe it or not, a calcium deficiency (actually a calcium bi-carbonate deficiency – note this is not calcium carbonate so don’t confuse them) can cause these illnesses.  In order to prevent recurring fevers and reduce susceptibility to colds, ‘flu, childhood diseases – and polio – it is essential that there is a sufficient amount in their bloodstreams to prevent these illnesses.

There are two forms of calcium that can be converted to calcium bi-carbonate: calcium lactate and calcium gluconate. After being absorbed they form calcium bi-carbonate.

Calcium deficiency fevers are common in children when they are going through rapid bone growth, especially if they’re getting too many processed cereals. They are getting too much phosphorus in proportion to the calcium.

Phosphorus is also a mineral and is needed by the body but if the balance with calcium goes out, it worsens the calcium deficiency. Like calcium needs magnesium to maintain proper balance and be used by the body, phosphorus needs to be balanced up with calcium.

Besides setting the child up for illness and diseases, deficiencies also result in an inability to relax and hyperactivity. The child gets “wired” and just cannot relax or sit still. It drives teachers and parents crazy and is no different to the feeling you get when you have had too much coffee and the resultant caffeine overload. You get a kind of nervy feeling.

This “wired” behavior very often results in a child being prescribed medication that just worsens the problem. They’re not deficient in meds, after all! We don’t need zombie children. We need alive, vibrant, calm and happy children who are disease-free and successful in life.

They are, after all, our future.

In closing, childhood illnesses, colds, ‘flu and polio can just be a sign of calcium and magnesium deficiency. Prevention is always better and easier than cure. All our bodies need minerals, regardless of age.

Two of these minerals are calcium and magnesium and they both need to be in the correct ratio to each other and sufficient to balance up high phosphorus diets (junk foods, cereals, soft drinks etc).

It is also the perfect thing to give teething babies. Calcium and magnesium “coat” the nerves so teething doesn’t have to be painful or unpleasant and the poor baby doesn’t have to feel “wired”. Teething can be a pleasant experience and over before you even realize it.

Calcium and magnesium are necessary for a healthy body and are not just for a “quick fix”. Disease can be prevented and should be.

The best way to take them is in a 2:1 ratio of calcium to magnesium along with vitamin C to create the correct pH for optimum absorption.

Try it today and see the difference in family calmness with happy babies and children.

Kids, 'Flu and Asthma: "I'm the mother of two beautiful twin girls.  They are both 6 years old.  Last year my first daughter was suffering from 'flu.  When I took her to the doctor they told me that she had asthma.  She was put onto a whole range of medication.  One day I explained to to one of your staff that my child is not getting better. In fact, she is getting worse and very fast.  She recommended your multi-vitamin, protein and CalMag-C. They started to use the products in November and haven't had any 'flu since then!  Also the asthma has disappeared!

"For myself, I am using Zappit C and also the CalMag-C and if it is that time of the month, believe me I don't have any period pains anymore! Thanks  for saving my kid's life!"  AM Pietersburg

What Causes Tension and What is The Solution?

Are you, like millions of others, chronically tense or anxious?
Do you suffer from a dry mouth or feel like you’re suffocating? Is your stomach constantly in a knot or having spasms? Or, do you get chronic muscle cramps? Here, let me give you some data that might explain these phenomena.
Your nervous system is a communication network that controls and co-ordinates most body activities. In addition, the nervous system works unnoticed to regulate a multitude of internal activities, such as modulating body temperature or altering heart rate, in order to maintain homeostasis – the state of balance and stability that exists in a healthy body regardless of changes in the external and internal environments of a person.
The nervous system consists of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems. Your parasympathetic nervous system keeps you calm and helps slow your mind and your body down whilst your sympathetic nervous system keeps you going, going, going.
This is important because when you’re supposed to be on the go – working, exercising, in action – you need your sympathetic nervous system to be firing away and providing you with energy but, when you’re supposed to relax, unwind, eat calmly, sleep peacefully, your parasympathetic nervous system needs to take over.
In other words, a balanced nervous system will allow you to have plenty of energy when you’re supposed to but also allow you to be calm and peaceful when you’re supposed to be relaxed.
To function properly, your parasympathetic nervous system needs the alkaline minerals to create the calmness and peace whilst your sympathetic nervous system requires the acid minerals to give that energy when you need it for your work or play. But the keyword here is BALANCE. You need both the alkaline AND acid minerals but they must be in balance so you don't exclude one or the other unless you're already getting too much of one from the foods you eat.
The main alkaline minerals include, amongst others, calcium, magnesium and potassium while the predominant acid mineral is phosphorus.
Phosphorus mainly comes from your grains (breads, pastas, crackers, processed foods, pies, cakes, etc) – your typical American diet – while calcium, magnesium and potassium mainly come from your greens – of which most people don’t get enough.
The important thing to know is that you need to eat more green vegetables and fewer grains.
You can also supplement with a good quality calcium and magnesium supplement like Instant CalMag-C (see below) as well as try taking two to three teaspoons of a good quality apple cider vinegar such as Braggs in some water with raw organic honey to get some good quality potassium into your body. This is quite a tasty drink if done right and goes a long way to providing you with the potassium your body needs. It’s available online at Paul Bragg’s site. I don’t have any connections with his organization other than being a consumer of their apple cider vinegar myself.
It is simple to reduce the tension and anxiety and have a calm and peaceful night’s sleep by eating more greens and taking good quality calcium and magnesium supplement.

I wish you a tension- and stress-free day and a good night’s sleep.

Anxiety Attacks

"Since I lost somebody very close to me, I have a problem with anxiety attacks.  It comes and goes but when I do get it, it stays for about a week where I cannot breath and therefore cannot sleep - even my lips go numb.  You just don't get enough oxygen into your lungs.  You want to yawn all the time in the hope that enough oxygen reaches your lungs.  Anyone who has had anxiety, will know what I am talking about!  I started taking Calmag-C and, within a few minutes of taking it, I can feel the breathing is calmer and I gasp less and less for air and eventually I am able to sleep.  The next morning, my breathing is still normal. Instant Calmag-C really helps. I can definitely recommend it to anyone who has anxiety!" TG Pretoria

Less Stress and Anxiety

Having a few days of not taking Instant CalMag-C, I noticed I was feeling anxious about things. I really noticed how much it helped me to feel less stress after taking it. Many thanks for your help.” J.K., United Kingdom

Why Is Magnesium So Important?

A deficiency of magnesium can cause many problems, such as an inability to sleep, digestive problems, hypertension (high blood pressure).

Magnesium relaxes nerves, relieves tension and helps with sleep. Why? Because it relaxes your nerves so you can sleep. An inability to sleep could be said to be inability to relax.

Magnesium is necessary for proper brain, nerve, lung and digestive function. It, with calcium, works to make your nerves function properly so they can send the correct messages to all your organs, glands and muscles so they can carry out your body's functions.

Magnesium is responsible for your body's energy at a cellular level. If you have adequate levels of magnesium, aging can be slowed down or even reverted.

It plays a key role in more than 300 chemical reactions in your body. It is vital for the processing of carbohydrates and amino acids (digestive system), reduces your risk of diabetes, improves your heart function and so many other functions. You can imagine that, being responsible for more than 300 chemical reactions, how much work can get done if you have sufficient levels. It also keeps other minerals such as calcium, sodium and potassium in balance. Deficiencies cause many body functions to be less than optimum and you feel these with certain symptoms. However, by the time you feel the symptoms, those organs and glands have probably been suffering shortages for some time.

Symptoms of a magnesium deficiency:

·    Emotional: irritability, depression, anxiety, restlessness (hyperactivity) and mood  swings. Could deficiencies be the cause of increased use of psychiatric drugs?
·    Structural: chronic fatigue and weakness, muscle spasms, osteoporosis
·    Cardiovascular: high blood pressure, fatty yellow arterial plaque, irregular heartbeat
·    Neurological: migraine headaches, excessive noise and pain sensitivity
·    Blood sugar difficulties
·    Premenstrual syndrome
·    Inability to sleep

Causes of magnesium deficiency:

·    Alcohol, sodas, sugar
·    Chocolate and coffee
·    High animal protein intake
·    Isolated calcium supplementation creates imbalances and contributes to magnesium loss
·    Stress
·    Loud music or noise
·    High dairy intake
·    High salt intake
·    Excessive heat

Proper Balance Calcium and Magnesium

Calcium and magnesium should be in a 2:1 ratio in order for your body to be able absorb either of them. If you have a deficiency of one or the other, your body will just draw the missing one from organs, glands, tissues, bones resulting in deficiencies of the missing mineral. That's why it's important to take a supplement that has this balanced properly.

In addition, because calcium and magnesium are both alkaline, they can't be absorbed unless they have the correct pH. To achieve the correct pH, they need to be taken with apple cider vinegar or vitamin C.

We opted for the vitamin C because the apple cider vinegar can be quite a challenge for some people because of the taste.  Our Instant CalMag-C has been formulated in a laboratory to provide the correct 2:1 ratio of calcium to magnesium, along with vitamin C to ensure the correct pH is present.

Many people report instant results - you can feel the difference in 15 minutes.

And I feel like my body is relaxing more than before. I thought you would want to know this win."MH, Florida

Calcium: Why It's Important

Welcome to our "sleep" page. We hope you find what you're looking for and that we can help you sleep better. We have many testimonials on this topic as we have helped a lot of people to sleep better, ourselves included.

The inability to sleep can be caused by almost any health condition, including things like depression, heartburn, cancer, asthma, arthritis, muscle and back pain.  Other things that can lead to sleep difficulties are the side effects from medications, or drug and alcohol use, as well as a high sugar or refined carbs (starchy food) consumption or insufficient protein before bed.

Besides the B vitamins being essential for good sleep, calcium and magnesium also play a big role in helping you sleep well.  Calcium and magnesium are both essential for your nerves and hormonal system to function normally and the two minerals cannot work without each other.

The harm done by sleeping tablets, to say nothing of the thousands of dollars spent annually on them, could largely be avoided if the calcium and magnesium intake is adequate and they are in a form that can be absorbed by your body. In fact, sleep meds just worsen the problem as they have side effects and one of the side effects is the destruction of nutrients in the body, robbing your body of energy too.

The intense nervousness caused by a lack of magnesium can also make it impossible to fall asleep. Calcium and magnesium also help to prevent or relieve leg cramps and muscle spasms of the toes or feet (Charley horses) which frequently wake some people or prevent them from falling asleep.

These two minerals are part of the nerve messenger system and if they're deficient, the nerves can't relax, which makes it impossible to sleep or have a restful night's sleep. Insomnia is really just an inability to relax.

In addition, potassium cannot be retained by your cells unless magnesium is also present. Without adequate magnesium, the potassium leaves the cells, creating an artificial potassium deficiency in them, making it even harder to fall asleep.

To be used by the body, calcium and magnesium need to be in a 2:1 ratio with some kind of acid to make the correct pH.

The key is absorption into the body so it can actually get these vital nutrients and you can feel the difference.

Instant CalMag-C has been formulated exactly per the body's requirements to absorb and use it.

With kind acknowledgement to Adelle Davis.

Overcoming Muscle Pain While Exercising

Anyone who exercises knows that muscles can “feel” the effects of having done so. Whether you’re fit or unfit, your muscles sure let you know that you’ve just exerted some energy.

There are various reasons for this happening. One of them is the burnt fuel – just like when you make a fire. There are residues from the burnt fuel. In your body, this burnt fuel can make it ache and cause you to feel tired because there's nothing there to spark the energy.. More on Overcoming Muscle Pain While Exercising
