Garlic - The Stinkin' Rose
Almost everyone knows that garlic is known as a healthy herbal supplement …though, of course, it is technically a food!
Health benefits of the “Stinking Rose” have been described for over 5000 years and have been relegated to folklore status. Today there is mounting scientific evidence that garlic is indeed a “super food”!!
The health benefits of garlic fall into such categories as cardiovascular, cholesterol reducing, antifungal, antimicrobial, and also immune stimulating.
The Immune-Boosting Power of Echinacea.
According to VeryWellHealth.com echinacea has been used as a remedy for conditions such as toothaches, stomach pain, snake bites, skin disorders, chronic arthritis, and in the fight against different cancers.
Echinacea’s major effect on the immune system is its stimulation of white blood cell production. This in turn helps to purify the blood, and protect us from infections.
I always suggest that echinacea is more an “immune BOOSTER”, kinda like kicking our immune system into gear; whereas other herbs, such as Astragalus, are more into BUILDING the immune system.
The Tried-and-True Wellness Formula
One of the best and easiest ways to get yourself tuned-up for the winter season is by taking a nutritional supplement that combines all the goodies in ONE or TWO tablets.
And though I don’t endorse one company over another, nor am I endorsed by a specific vitamin line-of-products with these daily Health Pearls, there is ONE formula that has stood up to its name for about 40 years!!
I wish you WELL…NESS!
Benefits Of Selenium And A Funny Story Behind It
The following Health Pearl actually caused some, let’s say, misunderstanding amongst several radio listeners back in 1996. This was in large part do to my Dutch accent…
It doesn’t take away from the overall message, though: SELENIUM is very important for our health, including fighting viruses and helping our thyroid function at its best.

According to the medical literature Free Radicals are oxygen molecules and atoms with impaired electrons in its outer shell.
Molecules contain an even number of electrons. Once they lose one, and the number becomes uneven, they do anything to survive. This includes stealing an electron from one of our healthy molecules and atoms.
