Calendula Petals: Herbal Sunshine
One of the key ingredients in our Golden Healing Salve is calendula flowers. We will soon have available to purchase online. Currently available in our store.
This cheerful flower is an easy to grow annual, member of the Aster Family and widely cultivated for its beauty. The golden-orange flowers look like a piece of sun fallen to earth, and these luminous blossoms are soft with flowers that are vigorous in blooming, and strongly associated with the feminine life-nurturing element.  Calendula is believed to comfort and strengthen the heart which is why is so widely grown and used, now and for centuries.  It is one of the most common herbs growing in people’s gardens throughout North America and Europe, and easily self seeds itself.  They will also continue to bloom after frost.  The old English practice of putting Calendula flowers in soup in the winter because it would help increase resistance to colds and fevers, since England has a damp winter with little sunlight.  Maybe it would also be helpful for Seasonal Affective Disorder Syndrome, as I always feel better when drinking the tea or adding petals to soup.   Calendula flowers have been used on injuries to reduce inflammation and as an antiseptic against infection.  It is ideal for delicate skin of infants and children, and is widely used in many natural body care products. Calendula bestows a calming, quieting touch, and has also been used as a remedy for a variety of skin problems ranging from skin ulcerations to eczema.  Externally applied to the ear, it has been reported to alleviate pain and discomfort from an earache. Taken internally, it may aid in eliminating fever, soothing a festering ulcer, and relieving discomfort of menstrual cramps.  Calendula is considered by many to be an effective detoxifying herb that can help with the toxicity associated many severe fevers and infections. Calendula is also widely recognized as a cleanser for the liver, gallbladder, and other organs. To make calendula tea simply pour 8 oz of boiling water over 1-2 teaspoons of calendula flowers and let sit for 15 minutes. Calendula tea may be taken 3 times per day. Also can be added to soup.

• Calendula salve for external application.  Bake 1 oz dried or fresh flowers / leaves with 1 oz olive oil. 160 degrees for 2 hours.

Quantum Reflex Analysis (QRA)
Rapid Assessment of the Body’s Main Organ / Gland Control Points
Interference Fields For A Rapid Return to Optimal Health Status

What if there was a way your body could quickly repair a damaged organ or rejuvenate itself at an accelerated rate?  What if you could regain peak mental and physical performance in spite of having been chronically ill and fatigued for years?  Today, many scientists believe the secrets of regeneration and healing lie not within costly medical drugs or expensive medical treatments, and in the body’s own Quantum Energy Bio-field (QEB).

More than ever, it is now possible to release the body’s inherent, powerful biological quantum energy circulation matrix that is capable of speeding up renewal and regeneration in our bodies.  Practitioners of QRA (Quantum Reflex Analysis) use the QEB as a template to define and eliminate stressors that have deactivated the body’s own potent internal healing systems for rejuvenation, endurance, vitality and longevity.

Looking for an instant soup idea? You can also mix 1-2 tbs. tomato powder, 2 caps tumeric, dash of pink salt, and 1-2 scoops protein powder in hot water for an instant soup that is very nutritious.   Extras: add some kefir, nutritional yeast flakes, and greens to this mug of soup to really boost the nutrition.

Healing properties of this soup include:

The simple tomato has gained a stellar reputation due to the discovery of a carotenoid called lycopene, a health promoting phyto-chemical which gives the tomato its red color.  Lycopene acts like a powerful antioxidant, helping to scavenge and neutralize harmful free radicals which can accelerate aging and cause disease. Lycopene also assists in the repair of damaged body cells as well as helping to inhibit DNA oxidation, which if left unchecked can lead to certain forms of cancer.  Many studies have supported the role of the tomato with its rich lycopene content in the prevention and nutritional support of prostate cancer, lung cancer and other types of cancer as well as heart disease and osteoporosis. According to Canadian research using lycopene to lower LDL cholesterol could mean decreased risk of heart disease. Tomatoes are rich in lycopene a powerful immune-boosting antioxidant (270 mg in 1 tbs of Premier powder) Tomatoes are also high in potassium an important mineral for kidney, heart, blood, muscle and nerve support (1 tbs of Premier powder has 450 mg. of potassium)

Herbs are nutritious. This soup is beneficial for fatty liver and weight watchers!

Tumeric is a powerful antioxidant that promotes healthy digestion, peristalsis and helps purify nerve channels and may help alleviate stiff joints.

A heart and liver healthy recipe. North Star carries:  Tomato Powder, Tumeric caps, Pink Salt, Nutritional Yeast, Greens Powders

North Star Health

With our commitment to excellence is proud to offer the addition of ionized alkaline mineral water to our offerings.  We have been selling this water and the machines since 2007.

This is an award winning technology and backed by more than 30 years of manufacturing excellence made by Emco Tech, which are the highest performing, most reliable and technically advanced ionizers available today. Their latest model is the Athena.

We believe that after drinking this water you will feel lighter, and feel more vitality. This water helps us be more alkaline and reduce the oxidation that can age us. We believe this to be the healthiest water available. Proper hydration is at the very foundation of any health program and a great preventative measure. The Athena ionizer produces a super abundant supply of powerful antioxidants in each glass. This water offers superior hydration up to 6 times more hydrating than other waters. Filtered for impurities, it is silky, smooth and refreshing. As water is ionized it provides a rich source of extra oxygen- almost double the amount of tap or bottled water!

The water is best consumed within 48 hours of dispensing from our machine. Drinking it as soon as you can after dispensing offers the best results. We might suggest you put only the water in the jug to keep it clean and after several fillings rinse with white vinegar before bringing back for a refill. You may purchase gallons at $3 per gallon with your container.   We are stocking 1 gallon size containers, and you can bring your own bottle as well.  Help ease landfill overflow! Easy to clean with diluted vinegar, or tap water and best done by hand. Don’t put in dishwasher. Because 60% of our body weight consists of water it is essential for us to drink pure water as it one of our greatest healers. We recommend you monitor your urine pH (we have paper).
There are 3 key reasons to drink ionized alkaline mineral water

1. First and foremost alkaline ionized water is a powerful antioxidant. Free radical damage can cause disease and step up the aging process. 2. Ionized water helps balance body pH by neutralizing and flushing out the accumulated acidic wastes in our bodies. 3. Ionized water has a different molecular cluster size and it only contains 6 water molecules instead of the 10 -13 in tap water. This smaller water cluster is much more hydrating than conventional water and therefore its detoxifying properties are 3 times stronger.

Dr. Robert Young, Author of ph Miracle endorses Ionizers made by Emco.
We stock these Books for more information on Alkaline Water.
The Miraculous Properties of Ionized Water, by Bob McCauley (($15) and
Reverse Aging by Sang Whang ($12)

The Athena has 3 modes of water, Purified, Acid, and Alkaline. We only use acid water externally for rashes, infections etc. Purified water can be used for baby bottles and medications and folks that are very toxic.   For best pH and anti-oxidant levels, drink the alkaline water within 48 hours and at room temperature. (You can cook food, and steep tea in alkaline water.) Drinking with nutritional supplements is fine. Avoid drinking alkaline water with Medications. Keep all water away from UV light.

The very best water to drink is Ionized Water, which is produced by running normal tap water over a positive and negative electrode. Both the waters are ever flowing (no recharge time like with reverse osmosis water).  Both Alkaline and Acid Ionized water have extraordinary properties and benefits and the uses for each are very different. Because the predominance of hydroxyl ions in Ionized Water, the water becomes alkaline meaning it has a high pH. All disease thrives in an acid environment in the body and can not flourish in an alkaline environment. When we acidify our bodies through poor diet we become vulnerable to any disease that invades the body. The more acid we are the more susceptible we become to disease. We easily measure our pH with drops or pH tape in our urine. The greatest keys to exceptional health is keeping the body pH properly balance and alkaline and staying hydrated. Drinking plenty of Ionized Water easily helps achieve these goals.

We love the feedback on your experiences drinking this amazing water. We are happy to provide water for sale by the gallon. While this may be a good way to introduce yourself to this water you may ultimately choose to purchase a counter top unit for yourself so you will have fresh water at your disposal. Having Ionized Water on tap is one of the best investments in your health you will ever make. You can easily install into your kitchen faucet (in about 5 minutes) to a cold water line that does not go through a softener. The Athena is a state of the art unit and retails for $1995 and we believe it to be the very best unit available today. Bess you on your path in Good Health, Sincerely, Pamela Alboher-Ray Ph.D., and Staff at North Star.

Your body can focus on achieving optimal health. * The electrolysis process rearranges healthy minerals that are native to your tap water according to their electrical charge. As a result, alkaline water contains essential calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium minerals in a form that can be assimilated. * Cancer does not thrive in an oxygenated and alkaline environment. A healthy pH balance promotes good health.* Ionized water contains smaller molecule clusters which help the body assimilate more water and to hydrate better. * Using alkaline water to reconstitute your juices from concentrate will result in a sweeter taste with less bite because the acid will be neutralized. The same will hold true for coffee and teas. * Natural texture and color is retained in vegetables cooked in alkaline water. Rice will be fluffier after being boiled in ionized water. * Helps with weight control and curbs your hunger when dieting* Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.
