      <description><![CDATA[<p>Before I mention how to reduce cancer-causing compounds from your 4th of July holiday, I want you to know this:<br /> <strong>Save 10% off any item at <a href="http://www.healthegoods.com">HealthE Goods</a> using coupon code: HAPPY4TH<br /> Expires July 9th.</strong><br /> <br /> <strong>Now, let's discuss how to reduce cancer-causing effects from a very fun holiday!</strong><br /> I've noticed some concerning things over the years - especially given my awareness of toxicology and environmental medicine.<br /> <br /> <strong>Concern #1</strong>: While fireworks are fun, brilliant and gorgeous to watch, the smoke they create is not healthy at all.<br /> <strong>Solution</strong>: Take 1 capsule of <a href="http://www.healthegoods.com/nac-n-acetyl-l-cysteine-90-vegetarian-capsules-seeking-health.html"><strong>N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine</strong></a> to support your liver in removing the inhaled chemicals the fireworks have released into your body.<br /> <br /> <strong>Concern #2</strong>: July 4th is usually a lot of partying and drinking. Beer definitely goes down well on a hot summer's evening while relaxing watching fireworks.<br /> <strong>Solution</strong>: Prevent a hangover the next day by drinking plenty of fluids, eating and taking <a href="http://www.healthegoods.com/nac-n-acetyl-l-cysteine-90-vegetarian-capsules-seeking-health.html"><strong>N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine</strong></a> to process the toxic by-products of alcohol.<br /> <br /> <strong>Concern #3</strong>: There is a lot of BBQ'ing on the 4th of July. Those lovely grill marks signal a perfectly grilled steak, hot dogs, chicken, eggplant (ever BBQ those?! You should!). BBQ'ing meats causes cancer-causing heterocyclic amines to be created and absorbed into your body.<br /> <strong>Solution</strong>: Grill to perfection. Lose the grill marks. Grill on lighter heat for longer times so you can prevent grill marks. Also, take <a href="http://www.healthegoods.com/nac-n-acetyl-l-cysteine-90-vegetarian-capsules-seeking-health.html"><strong>N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine</strong></a> to reduce the harmful effects of heterocyclic amines.<br /> <br /> <strong>Am I making this up? Nope. From <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7672737">research</a>:</strong><br /> "Cooked meat contains many mutagenic/carcinogenic heterocyclic amines (HAs), including 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP).....N-acetylcysteine was by far the most protective of the agents investigated."<br /> <br /> <strong>Protect yourself after this 4th of July with N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine by Seeking Health. </strong><br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.healthegoods.com/nac-n-acetyl-l-cysteine-90-vegetarian-capsules-seeking-health.html"><strong>Order your N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine now!</strong></a><br /> <br /> <strong><span style="color: #b22222;">Save 10% off</span> any item at HealthE Goods <span style="color: #b22222;">using coupon code: HAPPY4TH</span></strong>.<br /> Hurry! Expires July 9th!<br /> <br /> More Information about N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine:<br /> <br /> <strong>How to take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine:</strong><br /> Once you receive your bottle of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine, take 1 capsule in the AM with a small snack and another capsule in the evening before bed with a small snack. A great small snack to take would be almond butter and celery. This way the N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine is more effectively absorbed. Drink with 8 oz of filtered water.<br /> <br /> <strong>Who can take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine?</strong><br /> Breast feeding mothers may take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine.<br /> Pregnant mothers may take N-Acetyl-L-Cystein if they are in their 3rd Trimester.<br /> Exception! If known to have a baby with Down's Syndrome, do not take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine while pregnant.<br /> Children from 6 years and up can take 1 capsule with a snack and a glass of water.<br /> Children aged from 3 to 5 can take 1/2 capsule in some applesauce.<br /> <br /> <strong>Why should one take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine?</strong><br /> Anyone breathing air, eating food or drinking water absorbs toxins into their body on a daily basis.<br /> This nutrient is a crucial one in supporting our liver's ability to eliminate toxins from our body.<br /> <br /> <strong>How often should I take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine?</strong><br /> I recommend N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine to be taken on a daily basis along with a potent multivitamin, pure fish oil and a quality probiotic.<br /> This combination is highly effective in supporting your body's function and eliminating toxins on a daily basis.<br /> <br /> I recommend Optimal Multivitamin by Seeking Health for adults and Kid's Optimal Multivitamin for ..well...kids.<br /> ProBiota 12 capsules as a probiotic for those 3 years old and above.<br /> Optimal Fish Oil Liquid for all ages.<br /> We also have Optimal Fish Oil capsules for those who experience belching after consuming fish oil.<br /> This one won't cause fish oil burps as it contains fat digesting enzymes!<br /> <br /> <strong>Who shouldn't take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine?</strong><br /> Pregnant mothers before their 3rd Trimester.<br /> Infants to 2 years old unless otherwise ok'd by your physician.<br /> Those undergoing chemotherapy discuss with your physician.<br /> <br /> <strong>Why take N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine by Seeking Health and not some other brand?</strong><br /> Great question and a number of answers.<br /> First, it comes in a vegetarian capsule which dissolves easily and provides your body the N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine. Tablets are rocks and don't dissolve well. Avoid them.<br /> Second, our capsules do not contain any flow agents such as titanium dioxide or magnesium stearates.<br /> Third, 500 mg of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine is a great amount so you can give it to your child aged 6 and above with a snack and some water.<br /> Fourth, the capsules open up easily allowing you to put 1/2 capsule into applesauce for a child aged from 3 to 6 years old or those who cannot swallow pills.<br /> <br /> Have a great 4th of July! And a healthy one with N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine!
