Phoenix Ultimate Woman February/ March 2014


About Us! We started out with a simple vision! To support local farmers and small businesses in the West Valley! It seems like there are more markets to choose from in the Phoenix area and east side of Arizona. We wanted to bring that kind of privilege to the wonderful people in the west valley! We strive to be able to support our local farmers, small businesses, Mom owned businesses, health minded businesses and the local west valley communities. We hope to bring you a fun and wholesome experience with the intent that you will find a place to connect with like-minded neighbors and families. It is empowering to be able to also find that connection between the food you want to put on your table and the farmers that grow their food with integrity that makes it all possible! It is a wonderful thing to be able to meet the farmers and other local companies who put love and hard work into their product that they provide for you! A place where you can actually ask when your produce was harvested or what the difference between an heirloom tomato and typical tomato is.

BETTER THAN ORGANIC!!! Did you know that it costs nearly $25,000 a year for a farmer to certify his farm as “organic”? That is typically not realistic for local, small farmers! Of course we support organic…BUT (even more so) we support the small farmers who chose to go above and beyond the FDA “organic“ guidelines. Even though they may not certify their farms with the FDA, they chose to use organic farming methods. They practice using organic or all natural pesticides or (the best thing)…NO pesticides at all!!! It is nothing short of HARD work! If you have ever tried to grow anything in even a small garden…you know that it is a lot of work to keep the critters away. It is so disappointing to see produce get ruined by bugs, but you KNOW at the end of the day that you didn’t compromise the integrity of your food. Even though most local farmers are unable to pay for the certification, they chose to grow their produce using the practices that the organic farmers use. They just may not be able to afford to purchase that infamous sticker! (Which is fine by us because that usually means a rise in prices anyway) Even with “organic” farms…that doesn’t mean “pesticide FREE”! They are still allowed to use a watered down pesticide that is just a diluted version of what a non-organic farmer uses. Now…some may chose to go above and beyond the guidelines! Call or come by today for more info!

The Importance of Skin Care...


Why Alkalizing is Important!!

By Eva Louis, Health Passion Now Acidity impacts the body in ways most don’t know. I’ve been on a health kick for a while and have talked to many professionals, fitness coaches, and healers. There are many programs that exist and it takes some time to go through all the information and education that is available in order to identify products or solutions that can help you. One of the key areas that you have to understand is acidity in the body. Acidity relates to one’s pH balance in the body. This can be tested through using simple over the counter pH test strips sold at drug stores or available through some wellness centers. These tests will represent your pH factor. They have urine and saliva tests available. Healthy body pH range is between 6.0 to 7.5 out of 10. The best alkaline level is between 8 and 10 which is the highest. Mild acidosis which is a common diagnosis is known to be responsible for such problems as: cardiovascular damage, including the constriction of blood vessels and the reduction of oxygen; weight gain, obesity and diabetes; bladder and kidney conditions, including kidney stones; immune deficiency; acceleration of free radical damage, possibly contributing to cancerous mutations; hormone concerns; premature aging; osteoporosis; weak, brittle bones, hip fractures and bone spurs; joint pain, aching muscles and lactic acid buildup; low energy and chronic fatigue; slow digestion and elimination; yeast/fungal overgrowth. In the US, what has been discovered is that the American diet is the most common cause of issues with the acidity levels. We consume too many acid-producing processed foods as well as using too many drugs that are acid-forming. All these are contributing factors to unbalanced pH levels in the body. One of the products I have come across that deals with alkalizing water is an Energy Cup made by Juuva. Juuva.com explains how their products transform lives and I have to testify that the Energy Cup actually is one product that every household should have. The Energy Cup is designed so that it actually provides a unique filtration technology that converts everyday drinking water into ionized, alkaline water loaded with natural antioxidants.

Phoenix Ultimate Woman February/ March 2014


Why is alkalized water so important? First, it helps to hydrate the body which makes it easier to absorb and digest. In addition alkalized water promotes increased energy, supports balance and flexibility, neutralizes free radicals, reduces oxidation and diminishes signs of aging, and supports immune health, digestion, metabolism and brain functions. What makes the Energy Cup so special is that it supplies an easy way to get the alkalized water that you need everywhere you go without having to have an expensive filtration system set up and installed or carried with you. The Energy Cup is designed with a filtration system that helps to produce 9 to 10 pH balanced water with every use. Normally to purchase alkalized water there is a cost to produce, obtain through distribution, or have readily available. The major features of the Energy Cup are as follows: it is constructed of durable stainless steel, it has built in filters that alters the acidity of the water and alkalizes and ionizes it, it is a convenient size and holds 10 ounces of water which makes it extremely portable, and the best part is the number of uses – which is over 5000 or equates to approximately 400 gallons of water.

Phoenix Ultimate Woman February/ March 2014

Juuva (http://www.juuva.com/ energy_cup.html) distributes the Energy Cup and not only do they provide a way to obtain alkalized water, they have created for individuals a sustainable business model that helps with residual income through providing health enhancing products (Enerceuticals, Nutritional, Performance). Their focus is helping to “Transform Your Life� and your health. They also offer products that that are nutrient dense and have high nutritional value to support the pursuit of wellness. The Energy Cup falls under the category of Enerceuticals. Visit their website http:// www.juuva.com/ to learn more or call (480) 201-9040 or (406) 551-0001 for information. What makes Juuva products and especially the Energy Cup something worth talking about is that getting healthy is something everyone can benefit from. They have been in business and active since 2013 and they have proven research behind them that supports their solutions. There is so much more to discuss, so make sure to visit their website to learn more.

MY Fest will feature live music, a break dancing stage and crew competition, entertainers, artists, food, youth groups, and a variety of youth and familybased organizations offering information, resources and services. MY Fest 2013 drew a crowd of nearly 9,000 people and featured 80 youth and family serving community and social service organizations. This free community event has become the largest-ever youth led and organized event in the country drawing attention to behavioral health issues. MY LIFE youth and their supporters have produced 6 MY Fest events in Arizona that have inspired and educated over 30,000 community members about mental health, substance abuse and foster care-related issues in order to share resources, create awareness and reduce stigma associated with these issues. MY LIFE is made up of youth between the ages of 13 and 23 who have experience with mental health, substance abuse, juvenile justice and foster carerelated issues. Through regular meetings, special events and local and national workshops, presentations and performances, the group focuses on important issues affecting youth. MY LIFE is turning youth voice into youth action and is playing a vital role in helping to improve the community programs and systems. Additionally, the group is responsible for advising behavioral health professionals, community stakeholders and government officials on the issues affecting child/adolescent and young adult programs and services, and providing outreach to help reduce the stigma associated with being a young person living with a mental illness and/or substance abuse issues. MY LIFE members provide support for their peers; develop critical skills in LEADERSHIP, mentoring and mental health resiliency; act as advisors to local officials to help improve services and systems that serve youth; and provide a much-needed voice in the community to COMBAT the STIGMA associated with behavioral health issues. Simply put MY LIFE provides a venue where youth can overcome their personal challenges with SUPPORT from their PEERS, develop and hone their leadership skills, and use their voices to INSPIRE and create positive CHANGE for themselves and others in the community. In addition to helping youth individually, MY LIFE also has been very beneficial to programs and systems that serve youth by bringing about


changes to IMPROVE CARE for youth in Arizona and across the nation. Moreover, MY LIFE Arizona youth have been instrumental in starting four additional groups in southeastern Pennsylvania and two groups in Louisiana, with more than 400 youth now involved nationally in MY LIFE.

MY LIFE has helped me deal with my anger issues and helps me in stepping up out of my comfort zone by sharing my personal story and helping others, which has been very helpful to others and me.

The Importance of Skin care‌. Cleaning our skin is a major issue. Can you see deep in your pores if you could get a magnifying glass and take a look at your skin. I bet you are disgusted at the musty sweat, decayed make-ups, accumulated dirt, oil deposits and pollutants that are deposited on the skin surface With the increase in air pollution, cleansing your skin is a must, or else you get eruptive that will cost you beauty that needs to get corrected. No matter the skin type and texture it is advisable to cleanse your skin at night. The night cleaning is more important than washing your face in the morning. This will remove all dirt, sweat; make ups, that accumulated during the day time. Also, this helps the skin breathe and feel fresh at night and all day in the harmful pollutions of the everyday. Most people just use soap and water to cleanse their skin with hopes that it will give them effective refreshing effects. However, soaps have alkaline effects that also dry up the skin by ejecting sebum or natural skin oil. This can leave the skin dry and easily irritable. Use of soap can also upset the acid-alkaline equilibrium in the body. Find the right cleanser that works for you. Nutrients are play a major role in your skin care. The skin's cells are similar to those of the rest of your body. The body needs nutrients to make them flourish. The same molecules damage them. The same nutrients help to prevent or repair damage that we all do on a daily bases. Skin's cells are replaced on a regular basis; daily, weekly, monthly, throughout a person's life. Old cells are pushed out by new ones and sloughed off rapidly. The old cells are actually a major component of household dust. Losing old cells is good for your complexion. If the cells were not sloughed off, the skin would start to look dull and old. Regular washing is necessary to support the natural cell removal process. But a gentle exfoliate like sea salt can be used once a month to stimulate it. The most Important part is you diet and daily consumption. Like the old saying goes, an apple a day will keep the Dr. away. Eat vegetables and light on the fruits daily. If you have blackheads or whiteheads, select a balanced skincare deep cleansing product twice a week. The ingredients to look for include kaolin and bentone gel. This helps unclog pores also play a role in acne.
