Highly Sustainable and Non-Toxic Source Of Antioxidants and Omega-3s

Krill Oil is a unique and synergistic combination of antioxidants and omega-3s. It proves itself far superior to fish oils. Unlike fish oils, pure krill oil carries omega-3s in the form of phospholipids -- liposomes or little packages that deliver the fatty acids directly to your body's cells.

Scientific evidence to date has shown that the safest and most effective carriers of EPA and DHA are these phospholipids. Standard fish oils lack this phospholipid complex. Instead they contain omega-3 fatty acids in the less-beneficial form of free triglycerides.

Krill are small shrimp or prawn-like creatures that feed the world's most mammoth animals -- the great whales. Toothless great whales gulp down huge quantities of krill to provide the energy they need to fuel their massive bulk. A blue whale eats up to 8,000 pounds of krill each day during feeding season.

New and improved  Krill Oil
Tiny krill fuel giant whales.

These highly intelligent great whales aren't the only animals that depend on krill for their nutritional needs. So do seals, penguins, sea birds, squid and fish.

The hardy krill harvested from harsh Antarctic waters -- the ones that comprise Krill Oil -- are so important they are considered a "keystone species", an organism upon which many Antarctic predators depend.

These semi-translucent crustaceans congregate in dense masses or swarms that can turn the ocean's surface pink or red.

Together with plankton, krill make up the largest biomass on earth...one of the most easily renewable food resources available, an excellent nutritional source from an environmental perspective.

Krill aren't a new source of nutrition either. They've been harvested as a food source for both humans and domesticated animals since the 1800s. Possibly even earlier in Japan where they're considered a delicacy.

A Neglected Colon Becomes A Cesspool

The following is from a 380 page report on alimentary toxemia at proceedings in London before the Royal Society of Medicine in 1912:


The colon is a sewage system but by neglect and abuse it becomes a cesspool. When it is clean and normal we are well and happy; let it stagnate and it will distill the poisons of decay, fermentation and putrefaction into the blood, poisoning the brain and nervous system so that we become mentally depressed and irritable; it will poison the heart so that we are weak and listless; poisons the lungs that the breath is foul; poisons the digestive organs so that we are distressed and bloated; and poisons the blood so that the skin is sallow and unhealthy. In short, every organ of the body is poisoned and we age prematurely, look and feel old, the joints are stiff and painful, neuritis, dull eyes and a sluggish brain overtake us; the pleasure of living is gone.


To reverse this condition requires a change in diet, exercise and cleansing procedures. One of the easiest and quickest ways has been found in using colon hydrotherapy. This is accomplished by inserting a speculum in the bowel with an inlet and outlet attachment. Water can therefore be instilled and removed at will. This cleanses and exercises the colon and dislodges old waste and gas, giving a light, healthy feeling internally.


This is a photograph of a very diseased colon.

Are You Clean INSIDE?

We shower, brush our teeth and wash our hair on a daily basis, but we tend to ignore cleaning our insides until some form of disease sends us a wake-up call.

The colon benefits from periodic, thorough cleansing too. Constipation, skin eruptions, headaches, joint pain, gas, bloating, stomach aches, chronic fatigue, weight gain, parasites and digestive problems can all be signs of a toxic colon.

Don't suffer silently from these painful, and often embarrassing, health conditions. Experience how colon cleansing can help.

Colon Hydrotherapy can be compared to the process of deep cleaning your home. There are times when we need to move the stove, the refrigerator and the heavy furniture in order to deep clean in the corners, nooks and crannies of our well lived-in spaces.



Your colon may also be the carrier of unwanted extra weight and toxicity. The uncomfortable bloating around your abdomen may likely begin deep in your bowels, and be a breeding-ground for unhealthy bacteria, and advancing disease. It's time for a change!

Colon Therapy helps to:
  • eliminate toxic waste and gas from the body
  • re-hydrate the body through the lower bowel
  • re-tone the colon wall
  • improve nutrient absorption
  • improve colon function
  • regulate bowel movements
Gentle colonic treatments assist the body to eliminate old, built-up waste material. Colon hydrotherapy help to gently cleanse the large intestine, and assist in reducing the toxic load on the liver. This process is especially effective in support of a detox program, cleansing diet and/or weight loss regime.

Whenever you use ANY cleansing protocol, GET COLONICS. It's like cleaning your house with the windows open.

Oasis Colonics uses state-of-the-art, sanitary, closed-system, FDA-registered colon hydrotherapy equipment with ultra-violet water filtration. Treatments are administered by a certified and experienced colonic therapist.

Best Defense For Disease = Healthy Immune System

A strong immune system is the best defense against pathogenic bacteria. Eating healthy, keeping your internal environment cleansed, exercising and tending to emotional health is the best insurance premium for keeping dangerous bacteria at bay.

MRSA Is A Seriously Killer Staph Infection

MRSA can cause a really bad, literally "killer" staph infection. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a serious public health problem, one that is getting progressively worse, and resulting in a greater death toll than “modern plagues” like AIDS.

A 2007 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) pointed to 100,000 cases of invasive MRSA infections in the US in 2005 (the most recent year for which data is available). These cases led to more than 18,600 deaths, compared to HIV/AIDS, which killed 17,000 people that same year.

Normally, staph bacteria are relatively harmless. Up to 30 percent of people carry staph bacteria without it causing problems. If the bacteria, however, enters your body through a cut, it may cause an infection. These are normally mild and can be easily treated.

MRSA is much more dangerous because it is bacteria that has become resistant to the broad-spectrum antibiotics commonly used to treat it. MRSA is a “super bug” that is constantly adapting. It is capable of outsmarting even new antibiotics that come on the market. It can easily progress from a superficial skin infection to a life-threatening infection in your bones, joints, bloodstream, heart valves, lungs, or surgical wounds.

Healthy lifestyle practices boost the immune system to fight illnesses:

Purity Bread ~ Low in Carbs, High in Fiber

There is a gluten-free, high fiber, high protein bread currently on the market. The name of the company that manufactures it is Julian Bakery. Purity Bread is the best!

Purity Bread Ingredients:
Fresh Ground Whole Grains of *Buckwheat, *Millet, *Brown Rice, *Teff, Fresh Ground Flaxseed, (Sprouted 13 Whole Bean Mix of Navy, Black, Red, Pinto, Baby Limas, Large Limas, Garbanzo, Great Northern, Kidney, Blackeyed, Yellow & Green Split Peas & Lentils), Onion, Guar Gum & Sea Salt. *Organic

Each 1/4 inch thick slice of Purity Bread contains just 68 calories, but provides a substantial amount of fiber (8 grams) and protein (6 grams). Another bonus is that it yields only 2 grams of “effective carbohydrates” per serving: a) it contains no yeast; b) the legumes are sprouted which reduces the level of anti-nutrients, such as phytic acid, and improve its overall digestibility.

Purity Bread is baked fresh and can be ordered directly from Julian Bakery. Some larger health food stores stock it or may be willing to special order it. The look and feel of the loaf is different than most conventional breads. Purity Bread is much more dense and has a slightly different taste. Purity Bread is an easy way to dramatically and healthfully up your fiber intake without much effort. If you simply replace your typical morning toast or sandwich bread with this alternative product, you’ll easily be able boost your daily fiber consumption up to the recommended levels.

Is Your Colon In Bad Shape?

Many colons are in bad shape! Colon Therapy can help to reshape a misshapen colon. It is common for unhealthy colons to have kinks, blockages, knots, balloons, twists, lack of muscle tone, excessive spasticity, enlargements and/or hemorrhoids. Repeated colonic irrigation can help strengthen the colon while eliminating old toxic matter. Colonic Irrigation offers a more thorough cleanse than an enema. Colonics are more effective than enemas because the water can travel further, and more deeply, into the lower bowel. An enema allows a limited amount of water to be held within the descending colon region before being expelled. Colon Irrigation is a more gentle and thorough process. During a colonic, the water constantly flows in and out, softening and flushing out old fecal material.

"Release is my safe word."

Colon Hydrotherapy compliments a variety of whole body cleansing protocol. There are many books that offer guidelines for fasting and eating a cleansing, alkaline diet.

COLONICS work to soak, loosen and remove toxic debris from the colon, and to stimulate the liver and the gall bladder. At Oasis Colonics, the treatments are administered by a trained professional colon hydrotherapist who uses disposable equipment along with purified water to flush the colon of the toxins accumulated over years of stress and poor eating habits.

Typically seen coming out of a person are sheets of mucus from years of eating dairy products and refined starches, yellow-green bile from the liver, white and golden yeast and black toxic fecal matter that has often been lodged in the bowel pockets for many years.

Help For Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative colitis is a type of bowel disease that brings untold pain and misery to over a million people in the US. It produces inflammation and sores in the lining of the rectum and colon that bleed, produce pus and cause frequent diarrhea.

According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), 25 to 40 percent of people suffering from ulcerative colitis eventually have their colons removed because of massive bleeding, severe illness, rupture of the colon, or risk of cancer.

Scientists at the University of East Anglia have discovered there could be a way to stop ulcerative colitis from developing. According to a new study coordinated by medical researchers at UEA, eating sufficient olive oil can help prevent ulcerative colitis. Olive oil, as a preventative treatment, is healthy and inexpensive.

"Oleic acid seems to help prevent the development of ulcerative colitis by blocking chemicals in the bowel that aggravate the inflammation found in this illness," Dr Andrew Hart of UEA’s School of Medicine said in a statement to the media. "We estimate that around half of the cases of ulcerative colitis could be prevented if larger amounts of oleic acid were consumed. Two-to-three tablespoons of olive oil per day would have a protective effect."

Hilarious! First Infomercial in 1949 ~ Vita Mix

Raw food connoisseurs will particularly enjoy this "archaic" infomercial. My clients loved it the first time I posted it in January. Take time to watch in it's entirety. Hilarious!

When television made its debut in 1949, Bill Barnard, son of Vita Mix founder, W.G. "Papa" Barnard, immediately recognized this new medium as the perfect way for to demonstrate the new and improved Vitamix machine to hundreds of homemakers at the same time. He booked a 30-minute time slot on WEWS-TV in Cleveland, and created the first-ever direct response commercial. This commercial, which ran for several years in many markets, made the blender a household word. A copy of this early infomercial holds a special place in the Direct Marketing Association archives.
Watch it HERE!Papa  Barnard's First-Ever Infomercial

A Vita Mix blender today is even more amazing than it was it's infancy in the early 1940's. Health enthusiasts know how easy it is to eat LOTS of raw vegetables when they are deliciously pureed with a Vita Mix. See company website: http://www.vitamix.com/

Colorectal Cancer Often Begins As A Polyp

The colon and rectum are part of the digestive tract. Together, they comprise the large intestine which is located in the abdomen between the small intestine and the anus. Cancer that originates in the colon or rectum may be called rectal cancer or colorectal cancer. Colon cancer is the term most commonly used to refer to this type of cancer.

The colon is primarily responsible for absorbing water. It is about 6 feet in length and consists of the cecum (connects to the small intestine at the ileocecal valve), the ascending colon (the vertical segment located on the right side of the abdomen), the transverse colon (extends across the abdomen), the descending colon (leads vertically down the left side of the abdomen), and the sigmoid colon (extends to the rectum).

The rectum is the last segment of the large intestine. It is 8 to 10 inches in length and leads to the anus, which opens to the outside of the body. Waste material (fecal matter) is stored in the rectum until it is eliminated from the body through the anus. Over 95% of colon cancers are adenocarcinomas that develop when a change (i.e. mutation) occurs in cells that line the wall of the colon or rectum. The disease often begins as an intestinal polyp, also called an adenoma, which is an abnormal growth of tissue. Polyps can gradually become precancerous, and then cancerous.

What Is A Colonic?

A colonic is a safe, effective rinsing treatment used to help eliminate toxic waste from the large intestine. The gentle infusion and out-flow of warm filtered water helps to soften, loosen, and remove dehydrated fecal material, excess gas, mucoid plaque, parasites and other poisonous substances that fill the bowel, and layer the intestinal walls. Colon hydrotherapy can also help tone and reshape the colon.

HOW MANY COLONICS?

For someone who has never experienced colon cleansing of any kind, it may take between three and twelve treatments for old impacted fecal matter to begin to release. The waste is often hard and dehydrated, and deeply lodged in the colon, that it takes a series of sessions to sufficiently soften, and loosen, the material. It is also common to expel a considerable amount of gas during the first few treatments. The number of treatments varies with each individual and his/her condition. Colon cleansing fibers and herbs greatly increase the efficacy of the colonic procedure.

There is much hope that years of improper nutrition and ill-health can begin a reversal with a few colonics. At Oasis Colonics we recommend 3 to 6 colonics close together (about 2-3 days to 1 week apart) when beginning your initial series.
