Letter From Sachi...May 5, 2002 Aloha From Paradise, Tremendous thanks to EVERYONE .... I
AM painting again...........I'm doing commissions, and some new
watercolors with Sea Turtles-- also, I plan to begin some large
canvas work with pallette knife oils. But I've decided to
slow down --because I am now married to a great guy, August 24th,
2001-- and life has simply been way more fun. We all travel life's highway-- I've been learning so much & have found a few secrets. Microhydrin, (hydrogen) --natures best anti-oxidant. An incredible new technology~that makes me, my family and friends feel and look years younger. One a day hydrates the skin and cells & make you feel incredible. . Also give you very white teeth! .I get it here. My member number is 153-235, if anyone would like to try it. . I've also found MSM, (very nice people), HGH, and DMSO (health stores), which I'm finding are great all around good products. But, Ozone Therapy is my new passion and my web page (click) explains it. I have a medical Ozone Generator as has been used throughout Europe for over 30 years, and have been experimenting on my self with anti-aging possibilities, which is one of the reasons I got the machine! I'm also making ozonated olive oil, which is great for every skin problem on earth (I think), and making Ozone water-- drinking H30. And there's something else! Konnyaku. Ever heard of haluyronic acid? Well, this Japanese yam is loaded with it, and keeping people in a small village in Japan young, into their 80's and 90's. So CHECK IT OUT! We are lucky to have it here in Hawaii...but it may be hard to find on mainland U.S. I also
found a high lysine-low arginine ratio in foods is extremely
healing and beneficial, i.e., (list of high lysine foods-click
here). So I was
so astounded by the beneficial effects of high lysine goat's milk products that I found
milk goats!! Mama & Dusty And here
is And so--life does goes on. I wake up every morning expecting lots of wonderful surprises. I think it's a good philosophy. Peace & Infinite Happiness to us all, in this very incredible time that we are all blessed to be alive!! Sachi |
