Having A Curry Could Help Ward Off Dementia

Dear Friends, 

This is useful health information extracted from the Telegraph about the good effect of curcumin that studies have shown.

"Eating curry once or twice a week could stave off dementia, research suggests.



According to a report by the Telegraph, tests on fruit flies found that those given curcumin, the key chemical in turmeric, lived 75 per cent longer.

The findings, published in the journal PLoS One, could help explain why rates of dementia are lower among the elderly in India than in their Western peers.


Alzheimer's is linked to the build-up of protein in the brain called amyloid plaques damaging the wiring.


Curcumin did not dissolve the plaque, but accelerated the formation of nerve fibres by reducing the amount of their precursor forms, known as oligomers, from which they were formed.


Prof Per Hammarstrom, of Linkoping University in Sweden, said: "The results confirm our belief that it is the oligomers that are most harmful to the nerve cells."

Sprinkle some curcumin
for good health

"We now see small molecules in an animal model can influence the amyloid form. To our knowledge the encapsulation of oligomers is a new and exciting treatment strategy."


Several theories have been established about how oligomers can instigate the disease process.


According to one hypothesis they become trapped at nerve junctions inhibiting impulse signals. Others claim they destroy brain cells by puncturing membrane.


Curcumin is extracted from the root of turmeric and has been used as medicine for thousands of years.


It aids digestion, helps fight infection and guards against heart attacks. More recently it has been tested against pain, thrombosis and cancer".

There are many people who may not comprehend the heartache when caring for a Dementia sufferer, especially elderly in the family.

Perhaps this 9 minutes video clips entitled "Going Home" could change our attitude towards our aging parents or the older folks.

Tell your friends about consuming this common known spice for good health is a very good thing to do.

My heartfelt appreciation to Singapore Polytechnic and those in the making of this video. The script is realistic and a heart-warming production. Well done.

Stay tune ..how working together we can pay off our debt quickly and easily.

Papua New Guinea

Special congratulations to Shane and Rosaline Baker for sharing the good message of VeryGood.sg successfully in Papua New Guinea. We know of the hard work and all the walking and travelling between mountain peaks. It’s heart-warming for all of us to know of your success in Papua New Guinea.

Indonesia

The Australian pioneering spirit shown by Connie Tranchita and Maxine Wright is exemplary and heart warming as shown by the outstanding Indonesia growth pattern. Against the language barrier they have continued to impress the locals that VeryGood has the perfect business opportunity for them.

The VG Philosophy

Many locals started to grasp the philosophy of helping yourself by helping others FIRST. This is a simple message to follow. Getting paid for building customers weekly WITHOUT the need to find new customers all the time is the formula for wealth creation.

Our Attitude

Our attitude is vital to success. Attitude is everything in making life a 100%. The VG business is so easy but without the right attitude we make life difficult for ourselves and others. A positive attitude will overcome difficulties that do arise.

Like-minded people

Let us find people who are like-minded and who want to get a better life by sharing good news. Let’s walk away from negatives that can stifle our potential to be great. Even good intentions are not enough as they do not pay our bills. Instead let’s cultivate a positive attitude and be proactive.

Billions are online today

There are 6 billion people in this world and billions are now online. Let set our minds to reach many of them. Find them and make this your message: Create wealth by helping others FIRST. Experience has taught us that success is the result of people working together for common good.

With these thoughts in mind, we as fellow Resellers can “pat” ourselves on our back and look forward to sharing as the year 2012 progresses.

Thank You All Resellers

We thank every Reseller, and special thanks to Resellers who are trying hard whenever there is opportunity. They will succeed eventually. It starts with good attitude and the willingness to share the VG story.

Help yourself by helping others FIRST and by doing all the good you can.

Stay tuned for the next blog.

The success of building the right customers is fundamental in any business and building good Resellers into your team is no exception. Starting a business is not just about making lots of money, it’s about helping others to become successful.

The next blog will share wisdom from the experience of Mr Guy Kawasaki when he presided as the Founder of Stanford Technology Ventures Program Educators Corner in the School of Engineering at Stanford University. This is inspiring blog before this weekend.

Tell it as it is.

By CBNewsonline.com
The Christian Broadcasting Network CBN

Researchers say the ketones found in coconut oil have slowed the progression of Alzheimer's disease in some people and may actually prevent it.

This is good information. You may not need it but prevention is better then cure. You just never know who could have read and benefitted from this blog.

Share this for good health.

In loving memory of Karen Loh Su-Ling

(Nov 18, 1970 – Jan 2, 2012 @ 0417hrs)

Dear Friends and Fellow Resellers

On behalf of the Loh family, we have the saddest news to announce the sudden passing away of Karen Loh, our beloved Founding Reseller.

The memorial service is held in her hometown Batu Pahat, Johor on:

Date & Time:

Jan 3^rd and 4^th Jan, 2012 @ 8 pm

Jan 5^th Funeral Service @10 am for cremation.

Location : Gereja Grace Bible Presbyterian church

57 Jalan Ladang Taman Bandar

83000 Batu Pahat

"I could not find words to describe the heartache and shock

that Karen had left us so suddenly. I hope that this song would give

us the comfort that Karen is now in the bossom of God through eternity".

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide;
When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day; Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;

Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s pow’r?

Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;

Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies;

Heav’n’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Stay tune for the life of Karen Loh..

Housing Crisis in Australia

The disappearing Australian dream

As many as 1300 families have had their homes repossessed in the last nine months in NSW.

Reserve Bank

Despite the fact that the Reserve Bank has cut official cash rates, repossessions continue to occur.  Repayments on a mortgage of $250,000 have fallen by about $500 a month, more than enough for many borrowers to have avoided repossession. 

Why then is there such a problem? 

According to News.com.au, the Reserve Bank of Australia has focused on inflation instead of the real economy and created a downturn of Australia’s own making – and the global downturn hasn’t really hit us yet.

Cost of Living Escalating

The reality is that the cost of living in Australia has continued to escalate while the incomes of ordinary Australians are not keeping pace.  Sadly, many home owners falling short by as little as $100 per week have been facing repossession.  Pity help those who are hundreds of dollars behind each month!

Could VeryGood help?

The answer is a resounding yes, but it depends on you and I getting the story out there so that the ever increasing number of cash strapped Australians can see each of us solving the cash flow problem by example.

New VG Growth Demonstrates Potential

The other week in Sydney, a Reseller invited four friends to look at becoming Reseller’s and all four of them chose to sign up.  One of those new Resellers successfully invited two new resellers, and one of those successfully invited two new Resellers. 

            The result in the space of one week:

            The first new Reseller earned $840 profit.

            The second new Reseller earned $200 profit and $320 credit towards next week’s pay
            (due to one of their new Resellers successfully inviting two new Resellers and therefore
            paying business maintenance).

The third new Reseller earned $200 profit.

Other new Resellers, successfully invited by the first new Reseller above, are in the process of inviting other new Resellers and helping them to earn substantial first pays. 

This is the true spirit of VeryGood – helping others first and as a result helping yourself.

You Hold a Powerful Key

Each of us holds a powerful key to reverse the trend of not having enough money.  It sometimes takes a long time to fully grasp the true power of people working together to achieve dreams and goals.  This need not be so as illustrated by the results above. 

The best secret of success is to help your new Resellers make money in their first week and coach them to assist others to do the same.

Initially we need to swim against the negative currents in our culture.  This is incredibly difficult in home based businesses where you have to invest a substantial amount of effort to even begin to make real money. 

This is where VeryGood is so different – you can earn a decent pay in your first week. 

Congratulations to Some New Resellers

Congratulations to Samson Knox, who on the 11^th December, 2011 made a first week’s profit of $1,160, and congratulations to Suzanne Haroe who earned $840 profit for the week.

What Are The Options For 2012?

One could simply speculate on quick and easy ways of escaping financial woes.  Unfortunately there are no quick and easy ways.  However, there is an easier way than most options – it just takes commitment to do some focused VeryGood work and the willingness to ask for and receive effective guidance.

One could simply hope for a stroke of good luck to win the lottery.  Best of luck with that one as the chance of being struck by lightning is at least twice as likely!  There is a lesson for us here though.  In order to win lotto you must at least take action to buy a ticket. 

VeryGood is no lottery – it will produce for you readily but only with determined and guided effort.  None the less, where else can one put in some part-time hours (maybe even just 3 or 4 hours), and earn a pay of $200, $520, $840 or even $1,160 in your first week.

New Year’s Resolution of a New Kind.

The new-year is upon us and it is time to commit to helping ourselves by helping others first.  There is no place any more for making excuses for the fact remains that the bills keep coming in my name and in your name. 

It is time to work with like-minded people in the VeryGood business to build a successful team of very good people. 

Notice how easy it is to break a single pencil and yet you may not be able to break 10 pencils bundled together.  Team work is about finding people who seriously want to make a difference in their lives and the lives of those around them. 

And remember that making a difference in the lives of others will keep the message of good works burning long after you have made the good money you choose to make.

So what will my 2012 look like?
What will your 2012 look like?

The choice really is ours and it starts with commitment, planning and action.

Watch This Space

Watch for the new series of mind opening concepts that can help you and others use 2012 to more easily and quickly pay off your mortgages, zero credit card debt and put aside money for the things you truly need and desire.  

Like those of the above Reseller’s success stories, your story will take real form as you take to heart the VeryGood business philosophy of helping yourself by helping others FIRST.

Baby Formula Pulled From Walmart After Infant Death

Posted: 12/23/2011 By Martinne Geller

NEW YORK (Reuters) Dec 22 - A batch of baby formula was pulled from Walmart's shelves this week after the death of a Missouri infant, the company said on Thursday.

Walmart began the process of voluntarily removing the product --

Enfamil Newborn in a 12.5-ounce can with lot number ZP1K7G -- from more than 3,000 U.S. stores late Monday night, a spokeswoman said. The product is being held pending an investigation by health officials.

The newborn died on Sunday, according to local media reports, after he was taken to the hospital for appearing lethargic and displaying what his family said were signs of a stomach ache.

The infant tested positive for Cronobacter, a type of bacteria that has sometimes been linked to rare illnesses in newborns.

The bacteria have sometimes been found in infant formula, health officials said.
Mead Johnson Nutrition, the company that makes the Enfamil brand formula, said it was confident that all of its products are safe when prepared, stored and used according to the label instructions.

"The batch of our product used by the child's family tested negative for Cronobacter when it was produced and packaged, and that has been reconfirmed from our batch records following this news," Mead Johnson spokesman Chris Perille said.

The company said health officials will be testing any formula consumed by the baby, the water used to prepare it and other environmental sources that could be related to the cause of death.

Movember and VeryGood!

How did the Movember movement grow from two friends to thousands in just a couple of years, and now millions around the world?

This story has significant implications for our VeryGood businesses.

Read on for detail:

Movember has not long passed, and most of the mo’s (moustaches) have been removed.  However, the spirit of the Movember Foundation forges on for the purpose of raising money for its men’s health partners beyond blue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

 

How did it come about that each year during November there’s an increasing number of moustaches appearing around the world? It all began back in 2003 with a dare between Luke Slattery and his good friend Travis.

Blokes being blokes, Luke and Travis challenged each other to do something that has been very unfashionable for generations of young men coming to age over the last 30 years.  They dared each other to grow a moustache during the month of November!

They then decided to extend the dare to a few mates, but knew they would have to be persuasive and therefore needed to have a purpose.

They recalled that the mother of a friend ran garden parties to raise money for breast cancer, and this was the catalyst for them coming up with the idea of raising funds for prostate cancer.

As time passed, the idea of Movember spread by word of mouth.  Within a few years they were incredibly busy with speaking engagements, and at the end of 2005 they were working full time at the project.

Millions took up the "dare"

Quite simply, Movember had started with a conversation between two friends, and was then shared with 30 more friends.  From there it has spread dramatically across Australia and to the world.  Millions of people have now participated in Movember.

The word of mouth

Word of mouth when used to pass on something of value, something that enriches relationships and linked to what friends can do when they become a team, is exceptionally powerful. 

This principle applies 100% to our VeryGood businesses.  The places where VeryGood is taking off ‘like a Bondi tram’ are those were the principles illustrated by the Movember story are most active.

Our Conviction

Firstly there is conviction that VeryGood is more than a business.  It is a vehicle for positively changing the lives of ordinary people in good and extraordinary ways.  “Helping yourself by helping others first” runs contrary to the way society generally works.  But when it is practised with conviction amazing things happen!

We see strong glimpses of this when the Aussie spirit emerges during times of natural disasters.  Looking out for your neighbour is a principle that has changed lives since the beginning of time.

The conviction pays

This last week a brand new reseller grasped this concept and helped five others to become a part of VeryGood.  He has just changed the lives of those five people, and in so doing is staggering under the reality of receiving a payment of $1,160 profit for his first week! 

This news is spreading rapidly, and others are recognizing and embracing the opportunity.  This is happening in a sustainable and responsible way with new people being helped and trained into success.

The challenge today

I challenge myself, and invite you to take up the same challenge.  Great things are very possible!
