Xooma Worldwide - Last edited 14 March - 4-minute read You may have heard that a little stress can be a good thing and a motivator. Is it still a good thing if it becomes a way of life? Stress is how your body reacts to certain situations, which has been referred to as the “fight or flight syndrome.” However, modern life presents differently than thousands of years ago when you faced a life-threatening situation and needed to act quickly. The “fight or flight” response is immediate in reacting or running, and activates your adrenaline. Stress that is mild and short-lived is one thing. Chronic long-term stress, and overworked adrenal glands, over time can affect your physical and mental health.* Cardiac-related challenges are often referred to as the “silent killer.” If long-term stress can lead to some of these conditions, then is stress really the “silent killer?” You are probably familiar with some external symptoms of stress. However, how do you know what is really happening inside your body, which you could call ‘internal’ symptoms? External Symptoms There are many outward signs of stress on the body: anxiety, depression, headaches/migraines, heartburn, weight gain/weight loss. Internal Symptoms Gut health and cardiac function are just two areas that can be affected by stress. Gut health is responsible for approximately 70% of your immune system and 90% of your serotonin. Research has also revealed a connection between psychological stress and cardiovascular disease.* Stress-reducing activities It’s pretty clear that stress isn’t something that’s generally going to decrease, especially given our busy modern lives. Sometimes even changing your surroundings can change your state! Here are some ways you can include stress-reducing activities in your daily life. Breathe Some people unknowingly hold their breath when they are under stress. Be mindful of your breathing, and take slow deep breaths often. Move Your body was meant to move. Low impact exercises include walking, Yoga and Tai Chi. Swimming uses many muscles. There are lots of sports to choose from, both indoor and outdoor. Here is a wonderful free tool to discover what works best for you: “Be Active Your Way Widget.” https://bit.ly/2NeNg70 Eat restorative foods You probably know what’s coming…. more leafy greens, fresh vegetables and fruits, natural grains and lean protein. What you eat has a direct impact not just on your waistline but also your brain function and your mood. If you’re not sure where to begin, here is another great resource: “Heart-Healthy Foods: Shopping List.” https://bit.ly/1pGzaOy Seek balance Build balance into your schedule, such as quiet time, meditation, and time away from the television, computer and other technical devices. Xooma Products can help support you Through observing the impact of stress on two main areas of the body – gut health and cardiac health – here’s how Xooma’s products can help! Gut Health
Xooma Products that support Gut Health include X2O (item #8025), Assimilator (item #1118), and Probiotix (item 3901) X2O™ is the foundational product. It works synergistically while revitalizing, mineralizing and alkalizing. There are two targeted products in Xooma’s line with proprietary and trademarked ingredients that support gut health. Assimilator™ Taking care of your gut begins with your digestive system. Assimilator is referred to as “The Missing Ingredient” in our modern diet. Many foods you consume no longer contain enzymes, which aid the absorption of nutrients and can improve digestion. Probiotix™ Probiotics are vital for your overall gut health. Xooma’s Probiotix formula supports ideal levels of GOOD gut bacteria for a healthy digestive system and strong immune system. Heart Health
Xooma Products that can help support Heart health include Omega 3/75 (item 1101) and KardiaXyme (item 2801) Knowing how important it is to take care of your physical health, some of the recommendations earlier in this article help build health through exercising your heart muscle. Xooma’s products can also help support improved cardiac functioning.* KardiaXyme™ is a unique blend of marine algae and scientifically shown to reduce inflammation, especially important with the heart. Xooma Members have also experienced increased ‘good’ cholesterol and decreased ‘bad’ cholesterol. Omega 3/75™ is an ultra-pure formula that contains a high ratio of EPA & DHA (Essential Fatty Acids), and cardiac benefits are widely-recognized. Include stress-reducing activities in your daily life, eat restorative foods, and use Xooma’s targeted supplements. Then you are putting into practice ‘overcoming stress’! * The statements in this publication have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

| The Blood Type Diet gains recognition It led to my attending a symposium in Tennessee the same year given by an avid follower of the Blood Type Diet. His name was Bob. Bob had gathered over 800 people who were ALSO following the Blood Type Diet. It was a unique event. People had traveled from all parts of the country to this small town to hear Bob speak about this revolutionary new approach. I thought it was funny that all the blood groups were sitting together in separate areas. Each section was divided between blood groups O, A, B, and AB. Bob had made food that was beneficial for all blood types, and it was delicious! We were all meeting each other, and everyone was sharing their personal journey with the Blood Type Diet. |  |
Bob’s success
Bob shared his testimony about how he had suffered from Fibromyalgia for many years. When he was a young boy, he had also inhaled gas while trying to siphon gas out of a car. He said he was so miserable by the time he was in his 60’s that he basically didn’t want to live anymore. One day he visited a local library with his granddaughter and came across the book by Dr. D’Adamo, “Eat Right For Your Type.” 2 Bob realized at the age of 72 that he had nothing to lose. So he began following the program outlined in the book. Then he shared what happened next. He no longer suffered with Fibromyalgia and his asthma symptoms miraculously went away. He had such wonderful results that he started teaching at the local community college about the Blood Type Diet. He thought this was ironic since he was not well educated. But that didn’t stop him from sharing what he had found and what he felt had contributed to his wellness.

Studying under Dr. D’Adamo
I left the symposium so excited to implement this program into my own practice, “The Olive Leaf.” I also wanted to really understand the scientific principles behind the diet before introducing it to my patients. I obtained a Masters Certification under the guidance of its creator, Dr. Peter D’Adamo. While doing so, I met other wonderful Naturopaths who were also on the same path. I was so inspired I began to share the program with my patients. I remember spending hours writing up programs based on their specific blood type with recommendations, and having their notebooks spiral bound so they could have access to my suggestions. I was not doing food allergy testing in my practice during those years, so the Blood Type Diet had become the ‘go to’ program to help my patients with nutrition. I started to see results very quickly!

CBS Interview about the Blood Type Diet
One year later I received a call from CBS News. They wanted to interview me as a practitioner for the Blood Type Diet. To be honest, I was a little hesitant and nervous because I was not sure if it was going to be a positive or negative interview. The producer was very nice and I accepted her invitation.

 | As the news crew began showing up at my office to interview me, I was very excited yet still extremely nervous. I have to say, “God is always good and Always on time.” Unbeknownst to me, I had a patient who had taken ‘Before and After’ pictures of herself when she did the Blood Type Diet. She showed up as the crew was coming in and this turned out to be such a blessing! Cheryl had lost 57 pounds and she was off 11 prescription medications, all as a result of following the Blood Type Diet along with my supplement recommendations. The interview went phenomenally well. There is a copy of this interview on my website under TV appearances so others can see Cheryl’s fantastic results! |
A brief review of the four blood types
Ten years later, I am still practicing the Blood Type Diet in my office. I have given several lectures on the subject, which you can find in your back office. This HealthBeat article provides a short overview of the different blood types. And hopefully this article can serve as a reference for you and your family.

| Blood Type O Overview profile:
Weaknesses: Intolerant to new dietary and environmental conditions, and immune system can be overactive and attack itself Medical risks: Insulin resistance, blood-clotting disorders, inflammatory diseases such as arthritis, low thyroid production, and ulcers Weight Loss Key
|  |
| Blood Type A Overview profile:
Weaknesses: Unable to digest and metabolize meat protein easily, vulnerable immune system, and open to microbial invasion Medical risks: Heart Disease, Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, Cancer, Liver and Gallbladder disorders Weight Loss Key
|  |
| Blood Type B Overview profile:
Weaknesses: No natural weaknesses. However, imbalance causes tendency toward autoimmune disease and rare, slow-growing viruses Medical risks: Type 1 Diabetes, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and autoimmune diseases: Lou Gehrig’s disease, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis Weight Loss Key
|  |
| Blood Type AB Overview profile:
Weaknesses: Sensitive digestive tract, and open to microbial invasion o Medical risks: Heart Disease and Cancer Weight Loss Key
|  |
After many years of practice, I have found that sometimes the simplest things are the most effective. So if a patient comes into my practice and they are not in a position to have testing, or if I feel there diet needs a change, I will place them on the Blood Type Diet in combination with Xooma products. Then I will observe how their symptoms improve over a 30-day period. It is truly amazing to see how these changes can have such a tremendous effect!
Xooma’s products can be a natural complement Xooma has several programs which can be used in conjunction with the Blood Type Diet. For a foundation of health, I recommend using Xooma’s LifeSource multi-vitamin/multi-mineral, Omega 3/75 , and Probiotix , along with X20 water (4 bottles per day with 2 sachets each). If you or someone you love has inflammation or inflammatory conditions, KardiaXyme and/or Berry Balance would be great support in addition to the products above to help decrease inflammation. If you are not sure of your blood type, you can order testing kits under the ‘online store’ of my website. Then you and your family can get started on the road to greater health.
The importance of water filtration
I also recommend visiting the water purification link on my website. Once you change your water filtration, you no longer have to use bottled water or water that is not filtered properly. You will end up saving so much money by purchasing one of the filtration devices, and then benefit by adding your X20 sachet which alkalizes your water that infuses over 70 trace minerals into the filtered water. Xooma Products can be a natural complement to the Blood Type Diet.
The company also has under-the-sink filtration devices as well as countertop and refrigerator-based units which filter out fluoride/chlorine and other harmful chemicals in your water. They carry shower heads and bath balls which are great for children. Also remember regular filtration pitchers and refrigerator filters do not eliminate smaller molecules such as fluoride. They only filter larger molecules such as chlorine, so the water tastes better but can still contain chemicals.

Now you have more insight into how ‘eating for your type’ can better serve you! And certainly, we know the same is true for the water you drink. As we say, if you change your water, you change your life!

XOOMA WORLDWIDE·MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 2018
Without getting too much into chemistry, there is a great solution for the summer heat. It includes two variables that can synergistically support you.
X2O Minerals help make your water "wetter" and hydrate your body at the cellular level. X2O water + MW Protein Fiber Shake = more hydration and energy! It’s a formula referred to as P+H. This concept was first shared on a Health Education call by Dr. Michael Triglia, warmly referred to as “Dr. T.” He is a member of Xooma’s Scientific Advisory Board, Doctor of Chiropractic, entrepreneur, and an accomplished Martial Artist.
The ‘P’ in Dr. T’s P+H formula stands for Protein. Protein is the building block for the body. And here’s an important fact: MetaboWize™ Protein Fiber Shake isn’t just for people who want to lose weight! By consuming MetaboWize Protein Fiber shake and X2O water on those hot summer days, you can avoid fatigue and other unwanted symptoms.
You may have gathered by now that ‘H’ stands for Hydration. With X2O™ as Xooma’s premier product, you’re probably already familiar with the importance of alkalinity and minerals.
Most beverages consumed today are acidic. Acidic beverages include coffee, tea, sodas, diet sodas, energy drinks, to name a few. Particularly important in the summer, another major factor linked to hydration is the outdoor temperature, the length of time you spend in it, and as a Xooma Member, the amount and frequency of X2O water you consume.
This “P+H” formula of Protein plus (X2O) Hydration is different than the pH on the alkalinity scale. However, during hot summer days, your body needs X2O hydration plus protein support.
Xooma’s products and scientifically-researched ingredients can play an important role in overall health. Learn more about Xooma’s products on Xooma’s Health Education calls, the first and third Thursday of every month, and how Xooma’s products continue to make a difference in so many people’s lives.
