Talking Health: November IS Digestion & Good Breath for the Holidays

Every Year we say that we are gonna capitalize: we intend to capitalize. The correlation is obvious: society celebrates the same time every year,

the tinge of gluttony—between giving thanks and the office parties- and family gatherings and the Holy Day observations. Because of all this end of year disruption, we stress our bodies excessively, at exactly the time when the insidious viral and infectious visitors are coming close to home to invade and brood. It is truly like a Brothers Grimm story being told over and over again: because we never take up the solutions to make the tale into a healthy, positive learning experience.

We know it is not the goblins who suffer: they bring their bag of tricks into the house and wreak havoc. They find the windows open and the lights out. They truly are the happiest creatures at this time of year: the human body is a wonderful place to take over in the colder months and they don’t care if they wreck the joint! The biggest suffering occurs in the Digestive System, and to the Liver. Every bombardment is a challenge and a stress and a degradation. And who sees it most? We do, at the health food store. We are the people in the community who can see the problem building, and the disharmony festering: we can see the ghosts of illnesses future. What do we do? We say that we are going to capitalize: and then we don’t!

Every year, each one of us gets smarter. We pick up new and better information, and our wisdom develops like compounding interest. Think about what you used to recommend as your core protocol for digestive weakness, and digestive upset. Think about your standard gimmies that you

suggested for that first sign of illness. I am pretty sure that I can plot my own growth in 3-5 year increments (over my past 35 years of study) for: digestive wellness, quick action immune-bolstering and liver support. Wisdom develops! Almost everything that I have recommended proved to be a valuable tool, but as I gained knowledge, the priorities of my advice became more appropriate and better! Probably, the same for you.

So, which is it: do you have the best knowledge possible, but your sales are not growing; or, do you know what to do, but you are not doing it? The consensus is that every year almost everyone whom I speak with says that their Immune sales have dropped over the years, and/or that they get a slight but insignificant bump in sales for digestive season around Thanksgiving. So maybe you take the latest product that your distributor is offering on sale (the product that they pick), and you put one or two of them on sale at 20% off, and you close the book on creativity—expecting miracles and spectacular sales. THAT is a fairy tale. Or you let the strong-arm marketing firms define for you what you will sell, as they demand fealty so that you can get a competitive discount for those bloated box-store-destined products. Why are you not leading with what you believe in? Why are you not huddling with your staff and saying: this is the protocol of products that we are going to highlight in succession—this November, and December and January/February—and we are going to make some health for our people by helping them develop better habits during this Digestion and Immune Season.

Ask yourself if you agree with this: it all starts with the digestive system? If you can aid the gut, and all the marvels in that middle-burner system: and if you can work to keep stress in balance, then it will be more smiles or all smiles this Holiday Season. You can do it: if you want to. Or, you can plan to make it happen, and then look later at the wave as it washes out when Spring returns next year, and you have not increased your influence, and people have not learned from your store the mission to better health with the seasons. Take a pencil or type on your smartphone digi-pad: this is what I want to do this season, starting now!

Digestion: Make it simple. The two most important things that people can take every year when the gut is challenged are whole leaf aloe vera concentrate—the most amazing and recognized of the superfoods—and a truly health-food-store-quality Probiotic. That is the best advice that I can give. Aloe vera is truly the First Step to Digestive Wellness: why, because it works to best activate every stage of the digestive system, while bringing needed Ph-balance, and also healing the skin on the inside that is the entire passage-way of your gut energy tunnel and bowel trash-compacting systems. We will talk about other versatile and valuable bitters later, but no other bitter can do this as a daily tonic: a therapeutic, quality, organic aloe vera is Foundational to Health.

How much aloe vera are you selling a day? Don’t be embarrassed: we all know. It is as if you fear your own knowledge, and you are hesitant to say all the beneficial things that aloe vera can do for human allostasis, because it almost seems too phantasmagorical. Aloe has been treasured for over 2000 years in every society in which it was available, but your health food store—which has access to the greatest healing pharmacy ever known to humanity—seems to have blockage on this health essential. Let’s change that!

This year, let’s start a tradition of off-shelfing an aloe vera display that educates: aloe is good every day, but especially at two times of the year (Holidays the 11th-12th month, and during the Spring Cleanse season). Two seasonal focuses, clear messaging and then you will be selling 6 bottles of aloe vera a day. Aloe Life® has three advantages: it is the most therapeutic, it is the best value for the customer and returns the most handsome profit to your store for its shelf space: and it is not sold through distribution, so you are not competing with those deep discount diddlers. Aloe Life® is the best choice aloe for Immune Season because it offers the highest amount of polysaccharides, that are retained from the plant in the natural manufacturing process: Aloe Life® is made differently than all other aloes (loud fact) to keep the good stuff! Aloe Life® is the best choice for Digestion Health: with the tell-tale sign of that distinct sour, salty, bitter taste that a

continued on page 2

superior aloe vera will offer. Those seeking total body support will appreciate the true + delicious healing taste of a well-made aloe vera; and at 1 oz. a day, Aloe Life® gives tremendous daily digestive support.

Have you ever actually put the full force of your marketing and educational efforts behind a major push for Aloe vera? My guess

is that in the recent past, you have done so for Acai and Goji and other superfruits that had their 15-minutes of fame. Be smart and grow long-term sales with the plant that offers more, and never fades: an organic whole leaf aloe vera concentrate (no water added!). No short-term exotic fruit fad here: grow your reputation and hear of the incredible health results from your returning customers with a therapeutic, well-made aloe vera.

Aloe Life® has the apt-named Aloe Gold whole leaf organic aloe vera concentrate on sale this month (and the Orange Papaya and Cherry Berry on sale in December). You can easily build a display for Holiday Digestive Health rotating these items through as sale items from now until January first. The bulk and center of any best-protocol digestive system display. State it loud: an Aloe in every refrigerator! Explain

Canada, Northern Japan + the NE United States. Chaga is highly prized in Russian + East

european herbal practices, with the modern clinical research validating many of the health

benefits described in those herbal sources. Chaga is unique among medicinal mushrooms: like all medicinal mushrooms, Chaga contains the beta glucan-rich polysaccharides that give medicinal

mushroom extracts their potent immune-supporting properties. However, Chaga also contains other

active compounds, primarily betulinic acid + polyphenols, which can give Chaga extracts

powerful anti-oxidant properties*. Chaga has a high ORAC score (measurement of antioxidant properties), similar to that of blueberry extracts.

how the Aloe Life® juice products are concentrated and add no water, so that all you need is 1 oz. a day. Put these best-in-class products on sale: (Independent stores) can get mix & match 15% off for 12 bottles of the 6 items on sale this month, or—to really make a commitment and save—20% off on 24 bottles, mix & match. Remember that Aloe Life® has an ongoing 15% off for orders of 72-pieces or more (and they are always offering additional store support) once you get your Aloe vera sales off the ground. Invest, educate, and offer sales from now until December and bask in the new business in 2018!

To meet those deeper discount parameters, Aloe Life® also has on sale their Herbal Aloe Stomach PLUS Formula in two sizes. This product was made for all home health cabinets during this season of indulgence and stress. First, it is an ideal prevention strategy as it is just as beneficial for stomach rebuild as for stomach upset. We all know that most of our customers (and staff) are teetering on the edge of having stomach problems with one misstep or bad day. Aloe Life® is unrivaled, because they use the world’s best aloe vera (in a concentrate with no-water added), and superior organic liquid herb extracts as the herbal base for their two Herbal Aloe products. Surely you can influence people to try Stomach PLUS for their weak or aching digestive imbalances. With extracts of Chamomile flower, Goldenseal root, Gentian rhizome and root, Ginger root, Meadowsweet leaf & flowering top, Wild Yam root, Fennel seed, Peppermint leaf, Clove Flower Buds, and Cinnamon Bark, this product is a multi-tasking digestive aid superstar. Find ways to make this the first choice for calming digestive upset, occasional indigestion, bloating, nausea and gas^ and you will be amazed (and enlightened) as to how fast and efficiently this product works for many, many situations!

Obviously, Probiotics are the easy sale these days for Digestion and Immunity. But are you a showcase for products that people are buying elsewhere, or are you promoting expensive items that are not the best choice for noticeable health? Or, are you stocking, recommending and selling THE BEST? I am still amazed about how many times a week I hear people say to me that they “don’t believe” you need to take a probiotic every day. That misconception needs to be banished (the two most important things that you have to take EVERY day are a quality, high EPA-DHA Omega-3 and a Probiotic), and your health directive needs to be for everyone to buy these two essentials from your store!

How well can you explain the benefit of Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics® to your community? Here is a fountain of youth for eternal sales. Why? Because this product cultivates and effectively regenerates. This probiotic is the perfect food. Dr. Ohhira’s product is built differently, and works more quickly, and does more things than any other probiotic on the market (in the world): can

you explain and differentiate this amazing product? (Have you studied this product enough to understand and believe these important facts?). Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics® are the best that there are, and this is the time that we can seize the moment to get people to take the best!

First, bring the Probiotics forward. Luckily, both essential formulas® Probiotics—Dr. Ohhira’s and the incomparable glutathione-producing ME-3 found in Reg’Activ™—and the entire line of Nordic Naturals® science-based Nordic Flora™ Probiotics are all shelf stable, so that they can be made into a persuasive Nov-Dec Digestive endcap display!

Second, educate on the facts that Probiotics—the good bacteria—are essential for Digestion and Immune System support.̂ Too often, we assume that the everyday shopper knows this basic fact: they don’t! Make sure that the entire staff presents these products fully. Take the time, and be creative

in getting this message out. Winter Essentials: Aloe vera and Probiotics.

Aloe vera may be the Royalty of Bitters, but this is the time to promote the benefits of all the herbal bitters too. In an age where people abuse the basic survival function of digestion, it is no surprise that digestive issues—mild, acute, dramatic and dangerous —are on the rise. Now, more than ever, the human body can use the taste-medicine that herbal bitters bring to the digestive process. Certainly, good digestion is one of the most critical factors influencing health, and plant bitters are one of the most essential tools to keep all natural processes calibrated. Bitters are now accepted as bringing a homeostasis to the brain-digestive system communications channel. Bitters for brain allostasis. Wholistic wellness includes that awareness that both mind and body health begin with good digestion. Bitters are essential. So, the bitters are not just that mechanistic “switch” that turn on HCL Acid production so essential for mineral and protein absorption, and for the activation alert for bile production which aids in fat and lipid assimilation in the small intestine. Bitters will activate tissues to naturally optimize natural hydrochloric acid, and yet most people are not familiar with this natural way to gastric balance through herbs. Promote Bitters as the natural, safe and effective way to dependable digestive and immune health, and more.

Bitters are now accepted as a beneficial essential for optimal immune function. So

much of immune health is gut health; and gut health is all about the environment of the gut biome. “Our human microbiome is made up of communities of symbiotic, commensal and pathogenic bacteria (along with fungi and viruses) all of which call our body’s home.” [https://www.enviromedica.com/human-microbiome]. This home needs a hospitable environment for the good to

thrive: and a diet balanced with Bitters aids in proper Ph., the development of hardy bacteria as well as an efficient eliminatory system. It is time for all of us to educate on the importance of bitters in the diet.

“Your gut, the whole digestive process in fact, is part of your nervous system. Therefore, your brain & gut are directly networked. This system is called the Enteric Nervous System (ENS) or “second brain.” Your brain and gut receive and send signals back and forth that trigger biological

responses, digestion in particular.” Digestion, Brain function, Immune System, Nervous System, gut allostasis: all interconnected (all disrupted by too much salt and sugar); all aided by the energetics of the Bitters. If you have not been staying alert, note that in the last 5 years, Bitters have become popular again. Time to use this wisdom of food therapy to make Bitters a part of your foundational protocols.

Time to tell your community to “Trust the Gut”. Along with Aloe Life® organic whole leaf concentrates, we have to learn to better suggest including bitters in daily regimes where appropriate, and for those seasonal tune-ups. Now is the time for a round of bitters. Enter Herb pharm® Better Bitters™. Launched a year ago, they have rocketed to the top of the list as preferred bitters, because they are so well-made, such a better value than the competition, and so organic and even tasty (in the field of bitters formulae). Every store will better their apothecary of health tools when they add the Better Bitters™ to their selection. Move over sweet & salty, bitters is back and better than ever!

Four excellent certified-organic formulas, available in 1 oz. and 2 oz. sizes: Better Bitters™ Classic; Better Bitters™ Bittersweet; Better Bitters™ Absinthium; Better Bitters™ Orange. Just add your marketing expertise, and you have gained a new customer for an important new way to tonify and heal. Want to understand the choices, and taste them: ask your Herb Pharm® Rep to give you a quick training, or a staff training after you bring them all in.

Again, since our mission here is to GROW our Digestive sales this Holiday season and we want to offer a simple message, we are only going to recommend one more formula that cannot be left off your Digestive Health display. Herb Pharm® recently added a best-selling superstar, Intestinal Soother™ [Chamomile flower, Fennel seed, Turmeric rhizome, Wild Yam rhizome, Cinnamon bark, Peppermint leaf and Peppermint essential oil]. This formula rocks, and people will try it and consistently return.

Herb Pharm® has so many quality, fast-acting liquid herb extracts for digestion that you need to ask your Rep which items you are missing, Remember as the big meals approach that the bile-releasing herbs—dandelion and artichoke—are so simple, safe and productive. Other aides to always have at hand are: Herb Pharm® Gastro Calm™, Cholesterol Health™, Intestinal Tract Defense™ formula, the versatile Peppermint Spirits liquid extract, the world-class certified Ginger rhizome extract and the classic remedy Neutralizing Cordial. There is also a new formula in town with the new spray-bottle Herbs on the Go “Not Nausea Now” (a flavorful blend of organic Ginger rhizome, Orange peel, Anise seed, Lavender flower, Peppermint leaf, Peppermint essential oil). Digestive support: let the entire neighborhood know that you’ve got what it takes!

Now that we have tuned the local digestive vibes, let’s party on. Herb Pharm®

HERBAL SPOTLIGHT: Celebrating Cilantro — 2017 Herb of the YearCoriandrum sativum: raise your hand if you have had the acquaintance!?

Between the leaf and the seeds, most of us have eaten more of this plant than we realize. Coriander starts as Cilantro, and most of us have tasted both! “Cilantro is the first, or vegetative stage of the plant's life cycle. After the plant flowers and develops seeds, it is referred to as coriander.” Adding to the salad of mystery of coriander: cilantro is the Spanish name for coriander leaves; on other continents, the leaf that is cilantro is called coriander; and it also carries the names Mexican parsley and Chinese parsley. Have you ever cooked with either (cilantro leaves, or coriander seeds)?

In 2017 Coriander/Cilantro was named the Herb of the Year, as a focus of the international Herb Association. Coriander loves the wild, but we are familiar with the cultivated garden harvest. A pint of coriander was found in the tomb of Tutankhamen, was mentioned as a cultivated crop in early Greece medicine: and identified in English writing in the 1300s, while being one of

the first herbs transported to the Americas around 1670.One plant; two different plant parts — not interchangeable. Coriander is a cooking spice

that can be substituted with cumin; while fresh cilantro leaves would usually be substituted with parsley. Simple spice: splendid array of use (and possibly the perfect metaphor for this whacky 2017).

So, to confuse: fresh coriander leaves are “cilantro”. The seeds of coriander will never be confused with the leaves: same plant — different flavor (spicier and warmer). Congratulations on the award, amazing coriander! Maybe this store will market these two parts of this same plant, and educate on use!

Of course, the mainstream will not mention Cilantro for medicinal use: this award recognition is just a function for the food industry, but we can hitch a ride. Have a produce case? — time to cross-merchandise! No produce case: picture a bunch of fresh cilantro next to signage about Herb of the Year and your Herb pharm® liquid extracts. Cilantro’s citrus fresh flavor is an essential for Mexican/Latin American foods (guacamole, salsas), Thai/SE Asian foods (in everything, including pho), Indian cuisine (chutneys, garam masala, dal — often substituted for basil), southern Chinese foods, Russian and Caribbean foods. in tCM, it is utilized as a Yin food medicine. There is no other food with more generalizations than this — some people love the flavor; others can't stand it — and yet people have been eating cilantro regularly for millenniums.

the recipe often calls for a long handful of cilantro thrown into the pot or pan at the end of the cooking, so that the fresh leaf’s flavor is not destroyed by excess heat. Cilantro is good nutrition with vitamins and minerals, but what may be most beneficial is the presence of eleven (11) components of essential oils.

today, research insists that it is good in many healing protocols. the highest nutritional profile: a freshly harvested plant, that is dried and ‘captured’ through extraction to optimally hold the beneficial spectrum of nutrients. Nothing could be better than Herb Pharm® Cilantro liquid extract [the leaf — Certified organic by Organic Certifiers — is hand-harvested at peak potency, shade-dried, thoroughly extracted, with a dry-herb/menstruum ratio:1:5; Extraction-rate 140 mg of herb per 0.7 ml]. This proper handling provides an ideal cilantro for health reasons; and many would prefer this Herb Pharm®-Quality over the fresh cilantro from the produce case or the backyard.
