Cold and Flu season is just around the corner and there’s nothing we can do about it…OR MAYBE THERE IS!!!

For more than eight years now I’ve used, and I’m a firm believer in, a product called “Immune System Booster”. “Immune System Booster” is a targeted nutritional supplement from BioGreen Systems Inc.

In the early and mid 80’s I was making my living as a production welder. Welding is a dirty job and as a result I was having some respiratory problems, I would catch a cold and be unable to shake it and it would often turn into Bronchitis.

After using the “Immune System Booster” as directed I noticed I wasn’t getting sick nearly as often and when I did get sick I was able to recover faster. Over the years I’ve developed a daily routine of taking my “Immune System Booster” along with vitamin C and a multi-vitamin also from BioGreen Systems Inc.. I now seldom catch a cold, even when others around me and those I come into contact with have colds or the Flu and I strongly believe I owe this to the “Immune System Booster”.

The following is from the
BioGreen Systems Inc. website.
Your immune system is the most complex system in the human body; it is what guards you against illness from viruses, bacteria and disease. If it weren't for your immune system, every cold, flu or even a small cut on your finger could be fatal. It manufactures the antibodies needed to fight substances, which can cause disease and must be kept strong to do its job effectively. Age, poor diet, stress and external germs can weaken the immune system. Also, the nutrients found in foods for a healthy immune system are weaker due to environmental toxins in the air, water and chemically treated agricultural soils. IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTER combines proven effective Guaranteed Potency Herbs, herbal extracts and phytonutrients to stimulate the immune system and aid your body in fighting illnesses.

IMMUNE SYSTEM BOOSTER'S natural defense formulation combines herbs that boost immune system function, kills bacteria and helps your body adapt to the change of season.

I encourage everyone to give “Immune System Booster” a try. You’ll be glad you did.

"Going Green" Mind, Body and Soul

As we continue to educate ourselves on the importance of “Going Green” in our homes we become more keenly aware of the reasons we need to “Go Green”. By using “Green Products” we’ve learned that we not only help create a safer home environment for ourselves and our families, we also have the opportunity to protect the environment.

Did you ever think, though, that you also need to help your body “Go Green”? When you consider this thought it’s important to remember that it’s next to impossible for any of us to avoid the toxins and pollutants in the air, water, food and soil that we are exposed to on an everyday basis. They originate in the pesticides, industrial waste, chemicals in products we use in our homes, food additives, our treated water systems, among other things that constantly surround us.

Consider the following facts:

· Many drinking water systems in the United States contain over 700 chemicals, including dangerously high levels of lead

· Municipal water systems are the repositories of millions of tons of chemicals, waste products, fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, much of which finds its way into our food supply.

· Approximately 3,000 chemicals are intentionally added to our food, and close to 10,000 chemicals are used in the processing and storage of food items, in the form of solvents, emulsifiers and preservatives.

· Our bodies are unable to discard these toxic compounds fast enough to maintain anything near optimal levels of health. These toxins are stored in our tissues, and the levels keep increasing.

· It’s not surprising that in 1979 the Environmental Protection Agency declared that up to 20% of all deaths in the U.S. were caused by the harmful compounds found in the air we breath, the water we drink and the food we eat.

By using “green products” in our homes we can limit unnecessary exposure to toxins. From the facts noted above, on our website Going Green 2day and information available from Parent Awareness Center, we can gain knowledge of the effect toxins have, not only on our health, but also the environment. Since some things we are exposed to are beyond our personal control, we must be diligent in our use of “Green Products” and we, also, need to detoxify our bodies and in a sense, help our bodies “Go Green”.

It’s a fact, we cannot totally avoid the health hazards in today’s world, but we can protect ourselves and our family from many of their harmful effects. BioGreen Systems, Inc. offers a wonderful product called BioCleanse System, a formula consisting of a combination of vitamins, minerals and nutritive herbs, which safely and effectively support the body’s detoxification.
A very powerful attribute of our BioCleanse System is its ability to help your body eliminate harmful toxins. Through a safe and natural process, this is an exceptional and proven method of ridding the body of heavy metal toxins such as lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury as well as other environmental toxins at a cellular level. Years of research and testing have been invested in this product formulation creating exciting results for our customers and Associates.

“Green Parenting”: Learning to make the “Green Choice”

As parents, we know how important it is to provide our children with the very best education possible and instill in them our family priorities and values. Providing a safe home environment for our children, so they have the opportunity to learn and reach their full potential, is also very important.

It’s necessary not only to provide our children with a safe learning environment in our homes, but also a safe living environment. Interesting thought, isn’t it? With the world’s focus on protecting the environment and “Going Green”, it’s only logical that we start in our own homes. By “Going Green” in our homes we not only make our homes safer for our families, we also have an impact in preserving the environment that surrounds us. One way we can do this is by carefully choosing the products we use on a daily basis and simply switch to using safe, non-toxic, “Green Products”. Recently, I became acquainted with a very informative website that I would like to bring to everyone’s attention,
http://www.parentawarenesscenter.com/. This website is dedicated to providing parents with information on how they can help keep their children safe by “Going Green”.


Here’s an excerpt from
Parent Awareness Center:

How to Go Green

Good parenting begins with educating yourself so that you can make the best decisions in raising and caring for your family. Parent Awareness Center is dedicated to providing free comprehensive information on "How and Why to Go Green", eco friendly choices, health, possible health hazardous that could effect the well being of your children, parenting articles, good parenting tips, and help for the working parent. As caring parents, we do everything possible to protect our families. We always buckle them securely into car seats, make sure they eat right, schedule regular visits to the pediatrician, and insist they wear helmets and protective gear at play. What most of us don't realize is that one of the biggest threats to our children is the arsenal of toxic chemicals that we have in our homes. Going Green just makes sense!

Here are some startling statistics:

  • EPA surveys find that indoor air is 3-5 times more chemically polluted than outdoor air.
  • After analyzing 2,983 chemicals used in personal care products, 884 were found to be toxic. (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health)
  • According to the National Safety Council, more children under the age of four die of accidental poisonings at home than are accidentally killed with guns at home.
  • Asthma is the number one cause of absentees in the schools today.(Asthma Awareness Online)
  • Of chemicals commonly found in homes, 150 have been linked to allergies, birth defects, cancer, and psychological abnormalities. (Consumer Product Safety Commission)

At Parent Awareness Center you will find a wealth of information about how you can “Go Green” in your home and in the process make your home safer for your family. The information they provide shows how important it is to be aware of the potential harm the products we now may be using can have on our family’s health and the environment. Parent Awareness has the same purpose and goals as our Going Green 2Day Blog and our Going Green 2Day Website have, which is, to help everyone we can to make the “Green Choice” to use “Green Products” in their homes. By doing this we can help educate ourselves, our children, our friends and others about the importance of “Going Green” and impress upon them how easy it is to do so.
