This newsletter is being sent to you either because your e-mail address
was entered at http://www.organicnutrition.co.uk or you have purchased
products online from us. We deliver products to all parts of the world

please go to the end for details.
This newsletter brings you information about organic and alternative health
methods. Sometimes, we bring you articles from independent health researchers
which may contain information and methods not usually employed by the
mainstream health profession. However, each writers' research shows that
they are routinely effective in the hands of independent minded individuals
seeking answers and taking responsibility for their own health and the
well-being of others.
(AOL and some other users may have to copy and paste the links if clicking
on them doesn't work as some email programs differ)
This newsletter is NEVER sent to anyone who has not requested it. Everyone,
including us, gets far too much S*P*A*M everyday. Major online companies
such as AOL, Yahoo and Microsoft are trying to stop this from getting
worse. Unfortunately, many genuine e-mails from reputable companies such
as ourselves can end up in your S*P*A*M folder in error or even get blocked
by mistake. We aim to send out a newsletter at least once a month. If
ever you don't receive our newsletters in the future, simply rejoin for
free and you will be automatically sent the latest edition.
We keep the costs of postage to a minumum. To see the cost of postage
to you, add items to the shopping cart and then click the yellow "next"
button. Enter your shipping details and then click the "next" button again.
You will see the full cost
before you finalise your purchase or

1) Milk Thistle - The ancient detoxifier
Milk Thistle is a prickly looking "weed" with a great healing power.
Milk Thistle has been used as a liver remedy for at least 2000 years.
There are even references to Milk Thistle and its healing powers in the
Bible and other ancient texts.
It is a large plant with glossy, green, spiky leaves bearing pronounced
white veins. The flower is purple and large.
Milk Thistle originates from the Mediterranean, but is now cultivated
as an ornamental plant in many parts of Europe.

Milk Thistle's Healing Powers
A great deal of scientific research has verified how well Milk Thistle
heals. The main constituent of Milk Thistle is a substance known as Silymarin.
Silymarin can act directly on the cells of the liver preventing deadly
compounds (toxins) from entering the liver cells.
When Silymarin is present in the liver it can effectively displace or
fragment the poisons before they can cause any damage.
Milk Thistle is your liver's ultimate guardian. It alters the liver's
cell membranes, making it more difficult for the toxins flowing past to
break in. As well as protecting the liver cells from free radicals.
Not only a protector, Milk Thistle also stimulates the enzymatic function
of liver cells thereby encouraging the regeneration of the liver.
It can also boost the production of glutathione, one of the liver's hardworking
chemicals, by 35 per cent. Milk Thistle also stimulates the flow of bile,
which helps the digestive system to do its job.
Taking Milk Thistle: If you consume alcohol or have taken drugs,
Milk Thistle should be at the top of your list. Our environment is higher
in chemical pollutions than in the past, we are all putting more strain
on our liver.
Milk Thistle is available in both Liquid (Tincture) and Powder (Capsule)
form. Tinctures can be faster acting, as they are absorbed by the body
easily and with speed.
Please note that our Milk Thistle products, as well as all of our other
herbs, are organic! This is vital because you don't want pesticides on
your herbs when you are trying to heal yourself (or at any other time
for that matter). Help protect your liver now!

2) Ginkgo Biloba - The natural memory enhancer
The Ginkgo tree, native to China, grows to almost 100ft (30m). This large
deciduous conifer can often be found in Parks and National Gardens. The
easily recognisable leaves are regularly used in art and design.
Ginkgo's most well know and widely publicised use is for improving blood
flow through the brain. It is used in treating all forms of cerebral insufficiency,
including short-term memory loss, dizziness, Alzheimer's disease, tinnitus
(a ringing, hissing, or booming sensation in one or both ears), vertigo
and increasing and strengthening memory. But Ginkgo also seems to boost
blood flow into all parts of the body.
Poor circulation, thrombosis, varicose veins, cramp, white finger and
spontaneous bruising may be assisted with Ginkgo Biloba as Ginkgo strengthens
blood vessels and is also an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. It is
a good herb to try in any condition that includes pain and itching. In
Japan the seeds of the Ginkgo tree are served at cocktail parties to prevent
drunkenness and hangovers!

3) Sugar - The modern poison
Many foods are loaded with sugar
Most "civilised" nations consume an outrageous amount of sugar. Americans
in particular are lied to and told how they are the best fed and best
nourished people on the face of the earth. If we are talking about processed
junk food - then this is probably true.
This is not meant as an insult but as a statement of fact. If you examine
the "foods" in any supermarket more closely and start reading labels,
you will find just about everything contains sugar. Most of the foods
are loaded with it - from cereals, to soups, to ketchup, to hotdogs. Even
flue-cured tobacco can contain as much as 20% sugar by weight. Some cereals
are as much as 50% sugar.
List of Damages
Excess sugar is harmful to your health: Given the large volume consumed,
it is more damaging than all other narcotics combined - it is a long term
chemical poison.
Just what damage does sugar do to the human body? The list is endless.
1. Sugar is by far the leading cause of dental deterioration -
cavities in teeth, bleeding gums, failure of bone structure, and loss
of teeth.
2. Sugar is the main cause of diabetes, hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia.
3. It is either a significant or contributory cause of heart disease,
arteriosclerosis, mental illness, depression, senility, hypertension and
cancer.
4. It has an extremely harmful effect in unbalancing the endocrine
system and injuring its component glands such as the adrenal glands, pancreas
and liver, causing the blood sugar level to fluctuate wildly. It has a
number of other extremely damaging effects on the human body.
Some of the other effects of sugar on the body are:
*Increases overgrowth of candida yeast organisms
*Increases chronic fatigue
*Can trigger binge eating in those with bulimia
*Increases PMS symptoms
*Increases hyperactivity in about 50% of children
*Increases tooth decay
*Increases anxiety and irritability
*Can increase or intensify symptoms of anxiety and panic
in women
*Can make it difficult to lose weight because of constantly
high insulin levels, which causes the body
to store
excess carbs as fat.

4) Live weight loss demonstration
Things don't always go to plan in this world, as most of us probably know.
We had hoped to bring a live weight loss demonstration to you before now.
Unfortunately our eager volunteer received an achilles injury playing
a game of five a side football over four weeks ago! Thankfully he has
now recovered!
We wanted to wait as the person in question is the ideal candidate for
doing our forthcoming weight loss program. The person is what I would
call an "averagely" overweight and out of shape male, aged 38. He has
tried various weight loss methods over the years with mixed success. Here
is what he says:
"When I first read the draft program a couple of months ago I was
excited about how powerful and yet simple the program sounded. I thought
it was really quite clever. Although I am quite nervous about appearing
in front of thousands of people, I decided to voluteer to do the live
weight loss demonstration. Hopefully it will make me stick to the program
even more and if my experience will help others then I will be even more
pleased." - Colin
So here is the timetable of events:
1) 7th July 2003 - The live weight loss demonstration will begin.
Photo's at the start of the program will appear on the site on Monday
or Tuesday of next week. There will then appear a diary of Colin's progress
throughout the next month.
2) 1st August 2003 - The launch date of the weight loss program and
products.
A detailed manual has been written to accompany the program and a number
of weight loss products have been carefully designed to complement the
program. These are not mandatory but results have shown that they can
increase the benefits of the program.
Further details will be sent closer to the time, but it is expected that
newsletter readers will receive a discount to the normal prices. __________________________________________________
5) Does your pet goldfish glow in the dark?
You may have heard in the news recently about a Taiwanese company that
has created a genetically modified fish that glows in the dark!
Here is the link to the story:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3026104.stm
On the one hand, this may seem like a bit of harmless fun and a novelty,
but surely the long term dangers are clear for all responsible people
to see. Is this just another example of a large multi-national company
trying to achieve short term profit, with real long term damage?
What do you think? Please let us have your opinion.
