I am very excited and proud to announce that the clinical studies conducted on Oxy-Powder were published in the April edition of the International Journal of Pharma and Bio Sciences (IJPBS).

In total, four of the clinical studies conducted on Oxy-Powder were published. Below is a summary of each study.

Oxy-Powder & Constipation

In this clinical study, all patients were suffering from constipation for at least 3 months or more. Routine examination of the patients stool, both before and after the study, indicated no abnormalities. Below are a few summarized bullet-points highlighted in the study:

• 92.6% of the patients in the study had straining during bowel movements on Day 0. Whereas, only 7.7% of patients had this same symptom on Day 42.
• 96.3% of patients passed hard and lumpy stools on Day 0. Whereas, only 7.7% of patients had the same stool consistency on Day 42.
• 55.6% of patients had the sensation of anorectal blockage on Day 0. Whereas, only 3.8% had this same sensation on Day 42 of the study.
• 40.7% of the patients had to perform manuel maneuvers to facilitate a bowel movement. Whereas, on Day 42, 0% of the patients had to perform such maneuvers

The final results indicated:

• 42.3% of the patients treated with Oxy-Powder® had complete remission of constipation.
• 57.7% of the patients treated with Oxy-Powder® had significant improvement.
• Failure rate: 0% in patients treated with Oxy-Powder®.

Thus, efficacy of Oxy-Powder® in treating constipation was significant and efficacious

Everyday, we are bombarded with heavy metals and chemicals that can have a negative affect on our health. This can include the development of cancer, as well as many other diseases. There are things you can do to prevent these heavy metals from affecting your overall health. I personally recommend doing a heavy metal cleanse with Zeotrex.

6. Some studies estimate 99% of the breastmilk in women residing in the United States contains measurable levels of DDT (Dichloro-Diphenyl-Trichloroethane), the first modern toxic chemical pesticide.
7. In the United States, eight times more antibiotics are used for the livestock industry than for human inoculation against disease.^[3]
8. In a study where pigs were fed large amounts of synthetic B vitamins, the pigs produced sterile offspring. Synthetic vitamins provide no nutritional value-they are poisonous!
9. Chlorine, acetone peroxide, benzoyl peroxide, and nitrogen dioxide are the most common oxidizing agents used during white flour processing in the production of white bread.
10. The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a nutritional lobbying group, claims that sodium chloride (common table salt) could be “…the single deadliest ingredient in the food supply.”^{[4 (PDF)]}
11. MSG is a toxic substance and causes adverse reactions, brain lesions, endocrine disorders, and other negative health problems.”^[5]

15. Over 70% of the world’s coffee supply is contaminated with toxic pesticides and chemicals. It’s estimated that just one cup of coffee contains more than 2,000 chemicals, many of which are gastrointestinal irritants and cancer-causing agents. Also, the high heat used in roasting coffee beans causes the natural oils to turn rancid, further contributing to its chemical load.
16. Playing and crawling on a typical floor exposes babies to contaminants such as dust mites, mold and mildew. Just one day of exposure introduces the equivalent of four cigarettes into an infant’s lungs.^[7]

Betaine Hydrochloride is an organic compound and vitamin-like substance found in many different foods such as sugar beets, grains and spinach. It is currently being recommended by both naturopaths, as well as medical doctors, as a supplemental source of hydrochloric acid in the stomach.

Studies show that this compound can profoundly benefit individuals suffering from digestive upsets such as hypochlorhydria, a deficiency of stomach acid production.

Normally, healthy stomachs can produce enough gastric acid to kill off bacterial and parasitic infestations. But when people experience deficiencies in producing stomach acid, they are more likely to have bacterial and intestinal infections, as well as the increased presence of intestinal parasites.

Betaine HCL also has the ability to help the stomach to break down fats and proteins in the food we eat. It also assists the general detoxification processes in the body. It is an essential component for metabolizing and absorbing food, and is particularly needed for assimilating proteins, vitamin B12, calcium and iron.

When it comes to detoxing your body, there are many techniques you can follow and supplements you can take. But, the best way, is to eat lots of foods that detox the body.

Below is a list of detox foods that I thought would be an great addition to everybody’s diet.

1. Fruits

Fruits are extremely high in liquid-content, helping the body wash out toxins. They are also very easy to digest and are high in antioxidants, nutrients, fiber and many important vitamins like vitamin C.

2. Green Foods

When you are ready to detox your body, fill your refrigerator with blue green algae, barley, wheatgrass, kale, spinach, spirulina, alfalfa, chard, arugula or other organic leafy greens. These plants will help give a chlorophyll-boost to your digestive tract.

Chlorophyll rids the body of harmful environmental toxins from smog, heavy metals, herbicides, cleaning products and pesticides. They also aid the liver in detoxification.

What Are Probiotics?

Repeatedly demonstrated to aid gastrointestinal health in the human body, acidophilus and other probiotics are key elements of our overall health and well being. This is particularly true when we consider that many of our common-day chronic ailments begin in the digestive system. It is also true when we consider the sheer number of people that suffer from poor gastrointestinal health, a condition which lowers the overall level of good bacteria in the body.

Before we go into the multi-fold benefits of taking probiotics, let’s define what probiotics are. The Joint FAO/WHO Working Group defines probiotics as “live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host.”

In plain English, probiotics are a type of living bacteria that actually benefit your health when taken in the appropriate amounts. This friendly bacteria, located in the gastrointestinal tract, comes in a variety of forms. With more than 400 different bacteria living in the human gastrointestinal tract, the most common forms of intestinal probiotics are L. acidophilus and Bifidobacteria bifidum.

These bacteria act as balancing agents for non-friendly, pathogenic, gut-bacteria such as Candida or E. coli. When the “good-guys” are not present enough, a number of bacteria-related health problems such as digestive upset, headaches, sluggishness, irritability, cadidiasis (an overgrowth of the bacteria Candida albicans), and even anxiety can ensue.
