Do you ever wonder…

Do you ever wonder….
– The TRUTH about how cancer spreads
– How/what essential oils can benefit a compromised immune system
– Are there foods to avoid when dealing with cancer
– The most effective diagnostic methods for breast cancer (and the serious problem with mammograms) …
– The effect and importance of hormones relating to cancer
Learn this AND more!

There have been so many studies done over how essential oils can benefit an ailing body but how can it help a compromised immune system that has allowed cancer cells (which everyONE has BTW) to metastasize?

I’ve heard from many people when getting the diagnosis of cancer that their doctors say NOTHING about nutrition!  As a matter of fact most of them were told to go eat whatever they wanted because the calories would only HELP!  I mean, hellur?  We ALL know that sugar feeds cancer…so what’s the deal?

Have you ever been concerned about mammograms?  I HAVE!!!  And due to fibroids I’ve had 3 years in a row that included 2 diagnostic mammos each year.  I’ve always wondered…is all that radiation actually CAUSING cancer?  I think the fact that Breast Cancer is THE #1 cancer….I have my answer!

Even if you could care less and have no concerns over cancer, register to watch so that I can have this series in my video library (because with today’s statistics showing by 2020 1 in every 2 women and 1 in every 3 men WILL HAVE CANCER…you’re going to want me to have this information to share)🙂

Episode 3 starts tonight at 9:00 PM but you can still view Episode 2 “Cancer Fact & Fiction, Breast Cancer, Hormones, Skin Cancer” until 8:00 PM

Do me a favor and Puuuuuh-LEZE register HERE

Ty sent out an email with some Q&A I thought you might find interesting…..

“So here you go… I wanted to answer 6 of the most common questions real quick below before we get started tonight.🙂

Q. What television channel is this being aired on?

A. First, while the quality of this documentary series easily qualifies it for being aired on TV, TV stations would likely consider the content “too controversial” for reasons you’ll understand with tonight’s first episode that you don’t want to miss.

Plus, none of the major cable channels or even the networks are available to everyone everywhere… certainly not for free! We have many people registered to watch from all corners of the globe, and the only way we can reach everyone anywhere and show this entire series free is via the Internet. :-)

Q. Does this docu-series give real solutions or is this just a clever sales pitch to sell me some “magic” potions?

A. Just ask anyone who’s watched our first two earlier docu-series,  “The Quest For The Cures” and “The Quest For The Cures… Continues,” or the millions who saw and shared “A Global Quest” when we first aired it in 2015 to limited release!

What you’ll see is as “real deal” as it gets, and no, don’t worry, we’re not selling any “secret potions.”

We’re truly on a mission, as you’ll see, to educate the world about all the best ways to prevent, treat, and beat cancer — many of which you’ve never heard about before because Big Pharma and others don’t want you to know about them!

We’re sharing this genuinely life-saving information so that you know your options for treatments… and so that you’re MUCH better prepared for preventing cancer in the first place.

You’re going to be blown away by everything you discover during these next 9 days!

Q. Is it too late for my friends and family to sign up free for this series?

A. We’ve been getting this question a lot for days, and even as of right now — with the important Episode 1 starting tonight at 9:00pm Eastern — no, it’s still not too late!🙂

Just send them this link …

https://go.thetruthaboutcancer.com/?ref=1b4c0a70-e942-48c3-983f-99e81b84f3fb

…and encourage them to sign up as soon as possible to watch Episode 1 tonight!

Q. How long is each episode?

A. Each episode is about an hour and fifteen minutes, with the exception of the first episode tonight, and the last episode (episode 1 and episode 9). These two are close to two (2) hours long as we just couldn’t edit them down any smaller — the information was just too valuable.

Q. Where else can I get the episode links and other updates about the series?

A. Great question. We know from past experience that email services like Gmail and Yahoo can be a little aggressive and sometimes they put our emails into your junk folder or even just straight into the trash.

(PLEASE make sure to check your “Promotions” tab if you use Gmail and haven’t been seeing email from us, and move it into your Inbox. If you use Yahoo, Hotmail, or others, please check to make sure our emails are not going into your spam or bulk folders. Please be sure to add our email (info@thetruthaboutcancer.com) to your email contacts list!)

And a great solution is to also follow us on Facebook here. This way, if you do miss our email somehow, you’ll still be able to get the links each day on our Facebook page!

Q. What if I have questions or need more clarity about something discussed in one of the episodes?

A. We’re going to be doing a LIVE Q&A where I will be go episode by episode answering your top questions!🙂

Below every episode, on the page, you’ll see a section that says “Live Q&A With Ty.” Just click on the link in that section and submit your top questions about that episode.

**Note** you can submit questions about each and every episode. So please don’t be shy; if you need more clarity or answers, please submit questions for me to answer.

Okay, that’s it for this email. :-)

I hope this helps, and keep an eye out for another email from me soon today with the link to watch tonight’s episode. (Remember, we go live at 9:00pm Eastern US time.)

Thanks and I’ll see you tonight,

Ty Bollinger

Need 5 simple steps to heal leaky gut?

If you have (or suspect) #leakygut I do not want you to miss out on this opportunity to pre-order the book #EatDirt AND receive $300 in bonus material….there’s only THREE DAYS LEFT!  I have been spending every available minute devouring the information in this book #needmoretime

 

While the effects of leaky gut can be devastating, the 5 step solution @drjoshaxe lays out are simple, affordable, and widely available, all fully within the grasp of every person reading these words.

 

In this book, he’ll share everything he’s learned about leaky gut and how to heal from it.  He’ll talk about how leaky gut syndrome begins and the trajectory of its development, dig deep into the risk factors of this condition, and why it has become a major cause of disease and dysfunction in our country and around the world. He’ll talk about how you can determine if you have leaky gut, and how you can protect yourself and your family—starting today.

 

Together, using the tools in this book, you’ll develop a personalized protocol that can begin to heal and seal your gut, tamp down inflammation, reduce immune dysfunction, and radically improve your health, both in your immediate future and over your entire lifespan. After implementing the strategies outlined in this book, not only will you greatly reduce your risk of disease, you’ll also notice changes such as: improved energy, restored digestion, glowing, healthy-looking skin, clear sinuses and fewer allergic symptoms, pain-free joints, mental clarity and focus, improved body image and confidence, increased metabolism (and fewer pounds), hormone balance, and fewer emotional ups and downs. HELLO!!! Who doesn’t want that?!

 

Who Should Read This Book?

It is estimated that leaky gut affects 80-90% of people and is only now suspected to be the root cause of many diseases today…

 

The signs of leaky gut can be confusingly varied:

 

You might feel tired and sluggish. You could get frequent indigestion, heartburn, bloating, and gas.

 

You might develop sensitivities to certain foods, foods that you’ve enjoyed without incident for years (or decades). You can experience persistent “brain fog,” characterized by a cloudy memory and lack of focus. You may notice changes in your skin, such as dark circles under your eyes, or inflamed skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and acne.

 

If the situation persists, you might start to develop more serious ramifications: chronic fatigue, adrenal exhaustion, and lethargy. Crippling pain and arthritis. A range of dangerous digestive conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease. Autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Sometimes, frighteningly, inexplicably life-threatening conditions.

 

If you had never heard about leaky gut and didn’t know the connections, you might spend years chasing down each symptom or condition, seeking relief from your allergist, cardiologist, rheumatologist, endocrinologist, neurologist—or even psychologist. All these disparate symptoms, with just one source? Could the answer be that simple? And if the prevalence of these conditions is rising so quickly and dramatically, how on earth can we protect ourselves?

 

Thankfully, the answer is in our hands—and in our kitchens, farms, backyards, subways and schools.

 

We need to eat dirt. My husband says, “Awesome, we can grow “dirt cheap”!”😀 (haha if you know me, you can hear the music too—-dirty deeds, done dirt cheap)

 

In his brand new book, Eat Dirt, Dr. Axe will lay out the exact plan you need to heal your leaky gut. It includes meal plans, recipes, a quiz to help you identify your specific gut type, and much more.

 

If you’re interested in getting ahead of these problems once and for all please pre-order your copy HERE and receive your $300 in bonus material….OFFER ENDS 3/29!

ALL of Dr. Axe’s products come with a 60 day, no questions asked, money back guarantee.

Do you EAT DIRT

Several months back I was given the opportunity to apply for Dr. Josh Axe’s launch team on the new book he’s releasing (ONE WEEK).  I say given the opportunity, my boyfriend….er uh Dr. Axe didn’t personally call me (dang it) but there was an ad on Facebook to “apply” and if you know my love for Dr. Axe then you know I wasted NO TIME screaming PICK ME, PICK ME…I LOVE YOU! (lol for all I know there were 1000’s of people chosen but I like to think I was just lucky to be one of a handful….I do know there were at least 500)  It wasn’t until last Sunday morning before church (when I decided to clean out my overflowing Inbox) that I saw an email from the Launch Team—-

CONGRATS!

You have been selected to be part of the Launch Team for “Eat Dirt” by Dr. Josh Axe.

—and let me say, I literally squealed OUT LOUD to the point that my husband thought something must be terribly wrong HaHa!

For the last three years I’ve had a passion for nutrition!  Initially it all had to do with vanity (I mean who doesn’t wanna look better) but once I looked better, I wanted to FEEL better and then I decided I didn’t want my children to ever face autoimmunity diseases, diabetes or heart disease.  THEN I thought, “if all these other diseases can be prevented I wonder if they could be reversed”.  The further I began to dive in and change my mindset about food the more I wanted to be a NATURAL mama, build a bubble around my commune and grow our own supply of EVERYTHING!

With all these thoughts and ideas swirling through my head with nutrition I began to watch how my son’s tics (from TS/Tourette’s) reacted to foods and I started making notes!  I watched his tics increase when he ate conventional eggs (once we swapped to organic it was better).  He’d literally go bazerk after eating tuna (which led me to believe he has some high-metals already).  Dairy caused his eye twitches to be so bad that it just about made ME sick, I don’t know how he didn’t pass out sometimes.  And I’m pretty sure my son has a leaky gut! The more I learned the more I started to see IN HIM and could pretty much pinpoint what he should stay away from and/or add to his diet.  But you try telling a teenage boy he can’t eat from the snack machine at school and see how fast he runs to it :/  Ok, so I finally find a naturopathic doctor in our area and we had him tested to find that he’s allergic to beef, corn, dairy, eggs, gluten, yeast, wheat and he’s eat up w/ Candida so should avoid sugars.  Do you think this changed HIS mindset (or that of his father)? Nope! :(  His dad has him convinced, “It’s not gonna kill ya, you know your mom is crazy!” (you guessed it, we are not together).

Once I got my head wrapped around the FOOD aspect I started to look into the toxins and chemicals….and OH WOW!  That’ll really make ya wanna bubble your family!  We made some DRAMATIC lifestyle changes (I saw we, I DID!) but when the family is outside the house (the reach of my guidance and supervision) they pretty much eat/do what they want.  I feel like I bend over backwards trying to detox them then once walk through the front door they’re in the movie Brave shouting F-R-E-E-D-O-M!

Soooooo…..all of my research led me back around to The Maker’s Diet by Jordan Rubin (I already had the book in my “library”) and I couldn’t get enough of those “AH-HA” moments (then my library grew with ALL of his books lol).  Rubin introduced Dr. Josh Axe and I’d give anything to live in TN and be a patient of his practice, under his guidance.  The more I learned of this man the more I believed that God had divinely “brought him into my life”.  He’s a Christian, believes nutrition can be healing AND he uses essential oils.  I quickly began referring to his website (draxe.com) for everything (before looking anywhere else).  Dr Axe opened my eyes to a whole new world (and yes I can hear Aladdin singing that in my head haha)!

If you have health problems and think it could be Leaky Gut, find the cure w/ #EatDirt from @drjoshaxe  Get $300 in pre-order bonuses at EatDirtBook.com!!  If you think that you may have a leaky gut but you’ve never been diagnosed go to isyourgutleaking.com and take the test.  THEN pre-order the book using this affiliate link so that the launch team knows how you found out about the book https://ju127.isrefer.com/go/edr/chellemills/

I will be posting about the book over the next several days so stay tuned…… I ain’t gonna lie ya’ll, I’m so excited I could squeal (AGAIN)

Why am I tired, sluggish, foggy

Let’s face it, it happens—we all go through times of feeling tired, run down, and/or sluggish. How do you handle it? Run to the snack machine, the nearest starbucks OR your kitchen full of real foods? Those sugary processed treats and sweetened coffees are not gonna do the trick! Yes, those items will give you a quick boost of energy…followed by a huge crash! Then what? You feel tired, run down and sluggish all over again and the viscious cycle continues. So how do we avoid that merry-go-round? We don’t buy the ticket to ride that’s what😉

Fatigue and lack of sleep can definitely be the cause of these lack luster moments but I’m hoping by now you realize another main culprit to your energy level is your nutrient intake! Poor dietary choices will put you in the same funk and downward spiral that insomnia can and will! Sugary packaged foods are simple carbs that will definitely bring about that crash within an hour of consuming. It’s just the body’s way of adjusting to the sudden amount of increased insulin.

Do you feel hopeless yet? HaHa Truly that’s not my intent here. I ain’t gonna lie, there are times I get caught in the vortex and feel I’ll never get out but I’m here to tell you there IS hope! We all have the same tools—-REAL FOOD but you gotta have REAL COMMITMENT!

Everyone is looking for that quick boost and turning down the wrong road will only leave you more fatigued. My sister just asked me yesterday, “I eat all organic, I drink coffee and I take all these supplements to increase energy but why am I always so tired and ready to take a nap?”  I’ve told her exactly what I’ve told y’all before….keep a journal with good notes, pay attention to your body and remove those foods you know your body doesn’t tolerate! It doesn’t matter what “other people” do and what works for them because what works for one doesn’t always work for everyone.

However, a great place to start aside from the journal is to eat nutrient-dense, low-gycemic foods! Foods that contain lots of vitamins and minerals while not affecting blood sugar levels. Example: Carrots are full of vitamins B, C, E and K and minerals magnanese, potassium, folic acid and zinc but they carry a high-glycemic index so they obviously aren’t beneficial in large quantities (especially for diabetics).

First of all check your water intake! Sometimes our body’s are dehydrated and that’s coming across as hunger and/or making us feel drained, foggy and just flat wore out.

Most Americans eat a high processed (drive-thru) diet therefore find themselves iron deficient, of course a lot of them don’t even realize it! Therefore getting some extra iron can help you feel better almost immediately. What are your high-iron foods? #1 is going to be the dark, leafy greens (spinach, kale, arugula, mustard greens or certain types of lettuce, like romaine but not iceberg). These greens will not only add iron but also provide you with essentials Vitamins K and C as well as minerals folate and calcium.

One thing to keep in mind is that some vitamins are fat soluble meaning you NEED to eat some healthy fats as well to ensure they’re being absorbed well by the body.

Please do not cut out all carbohydrates thinking that’s healthy! We all need fruit and especially when feeling drained we need to turn to citrus fruits (and citrus essential oils will work in the same manner). Just as even the smell of coffee can improve your mood and energy, the smell of citrus fruits will offer a quick energy boost. But I want you to actually EAT the fruit lol~ Grapefruit, orange, tangerines, clementines, lemons, limes these all offer antioxidants and thiamin and will boost your metabolism.
We need fats but not the kind you get from that McDonald’s cheeseburger or boxed meals but the healthy kind, Omega-3 fatty acids or fish oils! These omegas can be found in fish such as salmon and sardines, nuts and seeds. If you are deficient in omega-3s you feel it physically but chances are you don’t know what it’s coming from. These fatty acids affect everything from our moods to our brain health. Hmmmm, maybe that foggy feeling is screaming feed me fats, ya think?
