WEIGHT LOSS TIP: GYMNEMA SYLVESTRE

Gymnema Sylvestre "Destroyer of Sugar" is one of my secret weapons for keeping my waistline at a size 2. This amazing herb from southern india has been prescribed for at least 2,000 years to help treat 2 diabetes, high blood sugar, reduce sugar cravings, weight loss, high cholesterol, and inflammation. For those who crave carbs or sweets, you'll love this stuff, because it blocks your taste buds from tasting sweetness. Furthermore, Gymnema Sylvestre has also been shown to reduce fat deposits in the abdomen, waist and hips. Love this stuff!

Total Beauty: Redmond Clay


Redmond Clay is a mineral-rich bentonite clay that can be taken internally or applied externally. This type of clay is sourced in Redmond, Utah, where it is extracted from ancient volcanic ash found deep beneath the earth. What makes this product so unique is its' mineral profile: Magnesium, Iron, Calcium, Iodine, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Chromium, Selenium, Potassium, and many more. Taken internally, it aids in detoxification, boost immune functions(Due to Minerals), constipation, and more. Applied externally, it heals acne, insect bites, and rashes by drawing out toxins or excess oil. 
For thousands(possibly millions) of years now, humans and animals have ingested clay to help remove harmful parasites and(or) to heal the body of certain illnesses. Being that it is so mineral-rich, minerals are essential to human and animal life(Bones, Tissue, Immune System, etc.).​ For years now, I have been using Redmond Clay to heal myself internally and externally. I always feel amazing after taking this stuff! In such a toxic world, we owe it to our bodies to do a cleansing every so often! Trust me, you'll love this stuff.
