M Y D E A R R E A D E R I have so many new items to share with you, I don’t know if there is space to give them all my personal endorsement in this letter! We have so much to be grateful for. I have been using the “I Am Light” Liquid Ormus Minerals, the Anu Water, and the “I Am Beautiful” Facial Skin Oil every day. And I cannot forget the new Wild Tibetan Goji Berries—they are amazing! Goji berries are such a nutritious “superfood,” and the flavor of these berries is remarkable. I used to think goji berries tasted awful, but now I can’t leave home without them. If you try them, you will be hooked! I am being surrounded by more and more people who are em- bracing the raw foods lifestyle.They have such a life-force about them! I invited a few people to my house for dinner the other night and had my daughter Carla (a chef) prepare some raw dishes. She prepared some amazing raw almond tabouleh and a raw Thai dish; the guests were blown away! She finished with raw cashew “whipped cream” over fresh fruit. One of my guests has been eating this way for over 25 years and is writing a book on the raw movement. We are sponsoring some raw foods enthusiasts—Angela Stokes and Matt Monarch—to speak here in Asheville on October 30. We will be sharing a raw dinner, live music, raw choco- lates, and more; it will be interesting to see how many people attend. Angela’s story alone is worth attending: she lost over 150 pounds on a raw life style! I invite you try some of our new products and, if you have any questions or input, please feel free to contact my staff. Our intention is to be a resource on your path toward well-being. I pray that the changing of seasons this year will bring thoughts of bliss and happiness. Selina For products discussed here, please see page 17 and 19.
BY SUMMER S. KOLESAR, N.D., LIVING FOODS TEACHER
W hen I first heard of the raw vegan diet 10 years ago, I believed anyone
who’d choose to subsist on nothing to eat but raw vegetables, fruit,
nuts, and seeds must be living in a tree with their head so far up in a cloud
that they ignore all available valid nutritional data. I, like most Americans,
was raised steeped in the gospel of the food pyramid. I could recite verses
readily, such as the recommended daily allowance for protein, and how
many servings of dairy a day one “needs” to thrive. Not completely unaware
of the health movement, I was eating a primarily organic diet, had given up
red meat years ago, and swore by herbal medicine, instead of conventional,
for myself and my family; but, in the grand scheme of things, the raw diet
seemed to me on the fringe of extreme. Amazingly, as conscious as I was,

S ay “good-bye” to tooth decay, gum disease, bad breath, loose teeth,
bleeding, and receding gums, and say “hello” to a bright white smile
and healthy pink gums. How is this possible? With oil pulling! Never
heard of it? Well, it’s time you had.
Oil pulling is simple. Put a spoonful of vegetable oil into your mouth and
swish it around for 15 to 20 minutes. That may sound like a long time,
but if you involve yourself with other things, such as preparing breakfast
or reading the newspaper, time flies by quickly. The oil is “worked” in the
mouth by pushing, pulling, and sucking it through the teeth. As you work
the oil, it sucks up bacteria, toxins, pus, and mucous. Don’t swallow it!
Spit it out, and then rinse your mouth with water.
Oil pulling is best done first thing in the morning before eating breakfast.After eating, brush and floss your teeth as you normally
do. Oil pulling can be done one to three times per
day, on an empty stomach; just before meals are good
times. If you have good dental health, one time a day
should be adequate; but, if you have any oral issues,
then two to three times a day is recommended.
We have billions of bacteria living in our mouths, many
of which produce toxins as by-products that damage
the teeth and irritate the gums, causing inflammation
and bleeding. An overgrowth of bacteria leads to tooth
decay and gum disease and, eventually, tooth loss.
Discolored teeth, plaque (bacteria colonies), tarter (cal-
cified plaque), cavities, bleeding gums, sensitive teeth,
and chronic bad breath are all signs of an overgrowth.
Oil pulling reduces plaque by as much as 30 percent
and gingivitis by an amazing 60 percent!
Despite regular brushing, flossing, and the use of an-
tiseptic mouthwashes, tooth decay and gum disease
are major health problems. According to a recent study
in the British medical journal the Lancet, gum disease
affects up to 90 percent of the population.
Data from the US Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) shows that by the time you reach the
age of 65, your chances of having lost all of your teeth
are one out of three!
Teeth are meant to last a lifetime, and they will if
you take care of them. For most people, regular
brushing and flossing isn’t enough. Oil pulling,
however, offers you a way of protecting your
teeth and gums so that they remain healthy
for a lifetime.
Studies show that oil pulling at least once a
day can significantly reduce dental plaque
and gingivitis (i.e., gum disease). Antiseptic
mouthwashes can reduce plaque by 23
percent and gingivitis by about 13 percent.
Tooth brushing reduces plaque by 19 percent
and gingivitis by 16 percent. Oil pulling beats
