two garments. The first you purchased at say David Jones, a lovely t-shirt, just plain and you spent $39.95. The second was also a plain t-shirt, again nothing fancy, but this time you spent $4.95 at say a cheap discount store.
Step 1: Understanding the importance of balanced supplementation.
When you have completed all your tests and they have been reviewed by your Naturopath, you may be informed about some nutrient deficiencies you might have. Please do not rush Now which t-shirt would out and buy any supplements you expect to last longer, from the chemist, supermarket or and to get more wear out of? health food store as they may not The David Jones’ one of be what your body requires right course, you could probably now or the right strength or the expect the one from the right chemistry for your discount store to last a few biochemistry.

you're unable to absorb zinc at the moment and it would be a further waste of money if you went out to buy some zinc. If zinc has been identified as being missing in your body and you are unable to absorb it, our centre will prescribe a special formula so that the absorption of zinc will occur in the near future and only after it has been determined that you can absorb zinc, will zinc be given to you. For your benefit this is extremely important to understand. So please wait until you have been prescribed a supplement that has been tested for you by your BGH Practitioner before purchasing it from our centre. That’s the right one for you, at the recommended dose, for the conditions you are overcoming.

Step 2: Understanding the importance of quality supplements for your health.
prescribed for as long as your naturopath has recommended.
For example some Fish Oil tablets still contain traces of Mercury, which of course can do damage to our bodies. Unfortunately most fish today can have traces of mercury, yes that's correct most fish. Predator fish like shark, billfish and tuna contain very high levels and should be avoided.
There may come a time when you might be saying to yourself "I've had enough of popping these pills, day in day out�.
We recommend the fish oil capsules (EPA/ DHA.) Our suppliers have gone to great lengths and expense to ensure that the mercury has been eliminated to nonexistent levels as measured with the most accurate analytical techniques available today. There are only a few companies in Australia who go to these lengths. We will only buy from these leading companies. Another example is Flaxseed Oil. Flax oil needs to be from an organic source otherwise all you are getting is heaps of pesticides, herbicides and chemicals. This applies for all other products, especially herbs and oils. Also flaxseed oil is an extremely volatile oil, not that it will explode but it's volatile in how quickly it will go off. Therefore not giving you any benefit. Light and heat will cause it to oxidize and go off very quickly. Flaxseed oil should be purchased out of the fridge and should be in a dark bottle and boxed. So if it is bought sitting on a shelf from a store it has already gone off. Once again if the manufacturer doesn't take care with light and heat during the manufacturing process then the oil is of no benefit. Unfortunately a lot of companies don't do this therefore create cheaper oils that are not good for our health. Powdered products are also not good for the body, powdered eggs and milk in fact cause high cholesterol. Instead real eggs can help the body eliminate cholesterol. Step 3: It takes time to get better... most times.

Yes, this can be a usual cry and please be aware that you're not alone, everyone goes through this phase and usually more than once, it seems to come up regularly, even for those who have been with us for 15 plus years. Your health and that of your loved ones is far too important to be compromised, skipping or not taking your herbs etc, will result in that downward spiral of ill health once again. This is why we dispense only the finest quality supplements available today, and at the best possible prices. We have equipped our clinic with a natural pharmacy in order to provide you with the highest quality homeopathic, herbal, vitamin, mineral and enzyme preparations available today, in a timely, cost- effective and convenient fashion. In addition, we have bio-energized all the supplements and homeopathics that are dispensed from our clinic with special vibrational healing programs. We are constantly evaluating the quality and efficacy of natural health products from around the world in order to bring you the best products at the best value. To receive the best results for your health it is wise to continue taking your herbs and or vitamins until your next visit. Your Naturopath would like your vitamins and nutrients to be taken on a continuous basis unless you have been advised otherwise. If you are in doubt, call the clinic and book for a follow up consultation or a short phone consult. Your naturopath will answer all your questions. If you run out of anything we have asked you to take, please call to order on the phone or come in anytime and repurchase these as you do not need an appointment to do so. As a rule of thumb taking your herbs etc once a day helps to maintain your health, if you take them twice a day healing starts to occur and when prescribed to take them three times a day accelerated healing occurs. This is a general guide to understanding and please only take the vitamins, supplements, etc in the amounts prescribed. By taking more than prescribed you are not accelerating your healing.
It takes each red blood cell three months to mature, therefore it is going to take 3 months before a proportion of your red blood cells become nurtured.

Step 4: Understanding the quality and cost of herbs and vitamins.

Therefore Step 4 is understanding the quality and the cost of the herbs and vitamins you are receiving. "Why am I taking all these tablets and why do they cost so much? I've seen them cheaper in the supermarket or elsewhere."
8 STEPS TO HEALTH AND WELLBEING
Yes this is something we hear from time to time, so we'd like to clear the air as soon as possible and try to answer your questions. There are many examples of how the quality of herbs may affect your body. To help you understand this, many people think that just because a tablet has the same name as another supplement its effectiveness is the same.
Choice has discovered users are not always getting what they expect." Some manufacturers came within 10% of the amount of Glucosamine per tablet that was printed on the label and some manufacturers fell way short, with some containing more than 20% less Glucosamine than what was claimed. So it is important that you know what you are getting.
One good example is a herb by the name of Tribulus, which is fantastic for male or female libido, if the manufacturer uses the correct part of the plant. Tribulus is even better than herbs like Horny Goats Weed which has been given heaps of press.
Vitamin E is only beneficial to the human body in its natural form, synthetically made Vitamin E can't be used by the body and yes you guessed it! The cost is a lot cheaper as well. We ensure the Vitamin E you buy from us is from a natural source and is able to be absorbed by the body.
Now to highlight the differences, the Tribulus we use is from the leaves whereas other brands use other parts of the plant which in turn does not have the same effect. In fact it's 100 times less effective so you have to take more to get the same effects. Interesting fact which therefore makes the other brands more costly to your pocket. Another good example is magnesium. Some Magnesium tablets cannot be easily absorbed, you may as well be eating chalk. There are dozens of different types of magnesium supplements on the market and to buy some of them is an expensive waste of money as the body can not use it, even though the cost of the bottle is cheaper.

Also one form of Vitamin E has been found to stop the growth of an enlarged prostate, and some cancer cells, there is a strong possibility that at the moment you're not taking the right one. Instant help can be achieved once you know this little unknown secret. Lastly taking too much Vitamin E is not a good idea either and to know the exact amount of vitamin E to take is life rewarding. So sometimes you don't get what you pay for even though initially it appears cheaper. Step 5: Understanding the hidden cost of vitamins, herbs, nutrients and consults.
In August 2005, A Current Affair revealed " While Glucosamine is now recognised as a safe and effective treatment, consumer magazine

following paragraph, I am not having a go at any profession, all I am doing is presenting the facts. If you compare our consultations for naturopathy or acupuncture to that of other practitioners in some other clinics, it can be between $60 to $86. Our price is only $75 for symptomatic care and includes medical support by integrative holistic medical doctors, on hand for expert advice and referral when required. You have a multimodal team approach with talented practitioners skilled in specialized areas looking after your specific health concerns, which will deliver you faster results in the shortest possible time. Recently a friend of one of our clients had to have a partial knee reconstruction at the age of 43 because of wear and tear. The cost was $35,000 and that didn't cover the hospital or Anaesthetist fees and he may need to have the other knee done in a few years with the possibility of having total reconstructions of both knees in a little over 10 years (at what cost). Yes this person was in a private health fund but he still had a bill for over $2,000. The main part of the above that goes unheard of, is that if preventative medicine was used; 1. The operation would probably not have been needed, because preventative steps would have been put in place. 2. There would be no down time, off work, with unproductivity and lost income. Just this alone is worth millions of dollars to the Australian workforce.
go of their private health insurance to us and we will do our utmost to always because of lack of funds. put your health first. Now they had a terrible choice. One choice was to come up with $78,000.00 for the operation to be done privately or to be put on the waiting list of some 3-6 months. What a dilemma. What would you choose?
Improving your health without medicated drug related side effects is always in our minds and of paramount importance. We want you to have fantastic health, with no side effects and to understand how disease or ill health can be prevented.
Because selling their house to find the funds was not an option for the wife because she would be riddled with guilt if such an option was taken. So they decided not to sell and wait. In the meantime they sought my advice and we did everything possible to help to get her through this terrible time in their lives.
Step 6: Understanding the secrets of combining herbs and vitamins to achieve faster results.
Time passed and the operation was a success and now 10 years later all is still going well. The operation cost $78,000 and the taxpayer picked up the bill. Someone has to pay and yes I am grateful we do have such a systemslow as it may be. However it is proven that heart disease is reversible if you take preventable steps. "Prevention Care" is definitely better than "Crisis Care." We ask that you look at why natural medicine or seeing a naturopath costs what it does. Firstly in natural medicine we do not have government assisted Bulk Billing to support our clients with consultations. Likewise with our vitamins and herbs we do not have government assistance to support our clients needs, therefore the full cost does rest with you.
Sometimes it is not the amount of supplements taken that is important but the way they are combined. For example a combination of say 4 different herbs, can work together to be 100 to 500% more effective than other combinations. For example with Glucosamine for arthritis, it's the combination of other herbs that makes our product work exceptionally well. With most of our herbs, oils, vitamins etc it's the way we have combined them that creates synergy, not by using heaps of the individual substances. This is where the power of the supplements is achieved for your improved health. We hope this has helped to explain some important differences. I have looked into nearly every vitamin and herb company in Australia and overseas and find that there are only a few that will meet our standards.
The ones we have chosen are of practitioner strength only. Meaning their ability to improve health, get the job May we share with you an example.

A small number of clients come to our centre and do very well at the start and then find they start to level out. This should not happen where the decline doesn't stop. Most people just keep on getting better. With further questions I find that the products are being purchased cheaper from mail order companies, pharmacies etc. I wonder why they are not improving? The label reads the same or similar but the effect is different. Another levelling out phase occurs because you may stop your treatment after about 3 months because you start to feel better. The problem here is that the causes have not yet been fixed so after another 4 to 6 months all your symptoms return. Then after 3 months of getting up the courage to come back to our centre, or after trying someone else, they return to see us. Then 3-4 months later when they are feeling better, the same thing happens. The herbs, vitamins etc are stopped and once again the spiral downwards returns. The same pattern occurs, it takes approximately 3 to 6 months to feel yuck again, 3 months to rid yourself of the embarrassment and then the client returns once again. And you think I am making this up. Believe me this does happen quite often. After about the third year I now know the person is starting to understand. By understanding this cycle it will help you to avoid it from happening to you, therefore maintaining good health forever. When you understand that quality does matter and it is important to make sure that there are no heavy metals or contaminants in your products. Products purchased from us are routinely enhanced with CHI programs to maximize bioavailability and harmony with the body.

C: Very slow, however the body does improve over time At least 3 times a month I see a phenomena first hand, where clients return to the clinic after 1 or 2 years break with some terrible problems. That in 80% of the cases could have been avoided with preventative medicine. The scenario goes something like this: Mr B comes into the clinic with several complaints and after 2 to 4 weeks is feeling 60 % better overall. The next 3 months Mr B continues on his program and is now feeling on top of everything, 80-90% improved. Life gets busy and Mr B has to cancel his appointment. Unfortunately he does not rebook, even after our phone calls etc to return. Years passes and Mr B now returns with a serious heart problem. I truly don't understand why people have to hit the wall before they are forced to do something. I would like to think that you are different. You are aware that health is the most important treasure to keep, to hold onto, to work on, to keep it at the forefront of your mind and not let it slip past as not being important.
The following is a secret, a truly unbelievable secret to help you maintain your health.

Step 7: The insiders secret to avoid the “Yo-Yo” effect revealed. Unfortunately many health professionals love the “Yo-Yo” effect because it means that they can get to see their clients more often. The "Yo-Yo" effect of Dieting, the "Yo-Yo" effect of Back Pain, the "Yo-Yo" effect of treating Gut Problems, and the "Yo-Yo" effect of rarely treating the causes. Yes you read it correctly. This is an insiders secret from someone who broke the mould and who is teaching and mentoring other Health Care Professionals on how they can also break the mould. That's why most practitioners love only one level of care. This is what is known as Symptomatic Care. In Symptomatic Care only the symptoms are looked at and it creates the Yo-Yo effect because the cause or causes are never looked into, never addressed.
Many of our clients come from all over Australia and even overseas to get their specialised Return to Health and Wellbeing treatments. Thousands of clients have benefited, have regained their health from life threatening disease. "The professional staff at the Centre know what they're talking about, no beating around the bush! I am impressed with the results I've seen within my self, being able to get my supplements from the one place and the continual education about my body. I am now starting to feel Normal inside. I like that I know now what I can and can't, or should and shouldn't put into my body, it puts me in control." Jane B., Qld

"When I came to the Beyond Good Health Centre I was suffering from extreme tiredness and was generally unwell with several visits to the doctors/hospitals that proved to be inconclusive and ineffective. My total overall experience with the centre cannot be faulted. All staff members are dedicated to getting you back on track and enjoying life as quickly as possible. It has been a year since I began going to the centre, my energy levels are so high my friends can't keep up with what I'm doing, I feel great about the new "trim" me- by sticking to the diet prescribed to me I have successfully lost in excess of 25kg. But most of all I have a new way of eating and living that is going to continue to benefit me for the rest of my life! Everyone at the centre was a great help. I have changed my way of living (for the best) and have full confidence in treating any problems that may arise naturally and for that I am very grateful. I recommend anyone to give this a try. There is nothing to lose.” Lauren R.

Even as early as last week a CEO of a very large multinational company commented on some of the testing and treatment

procedures we have available, as they had never seen them in any other centre in Australia. Another comment was how outstanding and extensive our testings are compared to other centres. When you feel better, without the "Yo-Yo" effect and your improved health is fast tracked because of Corrective Care, initially the cost may be a little more but in the long run the overall cost is thousands of dollars cheaper. We have pensioners and people who are on welfare getting better and better, some of these clients have been with us for over 15 years. How do they do it . . . they budget for their health because they truly realise "for without health there is nothing" and they communicate what they can or can't do within their financial constraints. For others it's nothing to do with money, it might be they don't understand how food can make them sick or how by making a few simple adjustments to their diet can change their lives allowing them to feel fantastic without illness.
jumped in your car to find a few kilometres down the road a dozen cars stuck behind a tractor? Now you are really late, with no way of passing. You have two choices. One is to get upset and grumble and blame the person driving the tractor. Or take responsibility, as it was your fault for running late in the first place. If you take this choice you can enjoy the slow trip, realising this is an opportunity. It's your job to find the opportunity. It may be to have an important overdue conversation with your partner or children. It could be an opportunity to play a motivational CD, finding ways to improve your life. Another example of a mirror is when you wish to start an exercise program at the gym. It starts off okay and then everything around you seems to crumble, Life gets extra busy or you develop an injury, stopping you from getting back to the gym. These people usually haven't exercised for years but expect it all to fall into place when they decide to start again.
Or you get really cheesed off with people who run late. You arrive on time Instead of communicating this to us, so that we but the person you want to see runs late, can give them all the scientific studies on how just like the above. This type of person is this works, revealing unequivocally how foods usually the one who constantly runs can heal or how they can cause disease. Many late themselves and doesn't want to people would rather complain than take a accept that they do, but blames everyone proactive step forward. else for their time problems. On the day when they were running late everything Whether it be money, lack of understanding seemed okay, there was no tractor but the (not understanding how one of our tests work) next day or the day after, wow did it catch or the fact that they had a long wait in the up. You were on time but everything went waiting room, or something that upset them wrong. on that day. But in not communicating to us what has happened unfortunately can lead to Will you take responsibility? Maybe not, people sprouting their views (talking behind it's easier to blame someone else. But our backs) to all and sundry. watch out as the universal law snaps in "what goes around comes around." But to those people who communicate, who wish to understand, who have an enquiring mind and don't talk behind someone's back... our doors are open... and we will be outstanding in our efforts in helping you...
So how can we understand this in the real world? The best way is by understanding these two words:
Step 8: Find new choices using the "THE MIRROR" principle.
Do you: React with anger, stuck behind the tractor, e.g. road rage?
Another interesting aspect of understanding health and oneself is called "Mirroring."
Or do you: Respond with "Oh what an opportunity" to talk to my family, to listen to a motivational CD?
Life seems to have an incredible ability to mirror itself. If you are running late because you haven't given yourself enough time from the beginning all sorts of things usually start to occur to make running late even worse. For example how many times have you left your front door in the morning, running late,
