A letter from the Editor

WELCOME TO THE SPRING 2013 EDITION OF AVENA NEWS & VIEWS

Well, spring is finally upon us. This is such an amazing time of year. It’s refreshing to watch the shedding of winter snow and the new growth that signifies the return of vibrant vitality to the planet.

Spring is a great season to concentrate on releasing the old and growing the new. In this issue of our newsletter, the main theme is Eliminate. Elimination is more than just getting rid of stress and the other bad things in your life. We hope this edition inspires you to healthy change. We have so much to look forward to in 2013 that I can hardly contain myself! This year Avena has decided to do many more events. We want to reach out and touch all of our wonderful members, both new and old.

First off, we still have our great regular events spread across western Canada. But in 2013 we’ve added something special. We’re now going to do a four-city tour with LOU CORONA. In case you aren’t familiar with Lou, he was at our

Revitalize event in 2012 and was so impressed by our company and products that he wants to work with us! Check out the details of the four cities he’ll be visiting and mark the dates on your calendar! These are meetings you definitely don’t want to miss.

REVITALIZE - IT’S BACK! We had such positive feedback from Revitalize last September that we’re doing it again. But this year it’s going to be even better! You won’t believe how much we’ve kicked up this event to blow last year’s out of the water. Flip to page 10 to find out more info about the new speakers and additional details for REVITALIZE 2013.

With the focus of this edition on elimination to promote health, it’s time to take action!

Challenge yourself today to do something new—to cleanse in a new way. Try our Herb Cocktail,

H/C Plus or Para Ease while they’re on sale. It’s absolutely critical for overall health that you remove built up toxins and excesses, and these products do that, and more! We also have enzymes on sale, so when you’re done cleansing your body you can rejuvenate it and empower it with enzymes! The first three months of 2013 have flown by even as the upcoming year promises to bring many more good things. So stay tuned.

Have a wonderful spring!

DID YOU KNOW ?

Having a clean body is a great way to keep your immune system in excellent condition. By being proactive, you can stay a step ahead. When your system is bogged down with chemicals, toxins, weight and imbalances, it’s easier for pathogens to take root. A pristine body will attack anything negative quickly because it’ll be easy to detect. In the same way it’s hard to find a needle in a haystack if there’s a lot of clutter inside you it’s harder for your body to find the pathogen and kick it out.

Happy Easter - April

If you want change to happen within your body there really is just one place to look—enzymes. Enzymes are the reason change happens. The vast majority of things that occur inside your body require enzymes to do the job. By empowering your body with extra enzymes, you help reduce the load. With more enzymes comes more opportunity; things that would have taken hours, days or longer happen right away. Such is the power of an enzyme.

Enzymes are the life that is in your food. We need life-sustaining enzymes in our food to maintain and regain our health. Taking enzymes with food enhances the nutritional bio-availability of that meal. Taking them on an empty stomach increases your immune system and other body functions. Even better, take enzymes (with and without meals) to obtain the complete body wellness that is achievable only with enzymes!

Have you always wanted to try something small and simple to segue to a healthier lifestyle? This month Avena has a number of great products for you to try. First on the list is our world famous Goji Berries, shipped direct to you from the Himalayas. These delicious, nutritious red berries are packed with serious flavour and healthy benefits! There’s a big bite of wellness in every Goji Berry; these superfoods are well known for their health benefits and great taste. Just grab and go. To try them is to love them!

Another great product that is still new to our product line is our roll-on essential oil blends. With four specially-designed creations, there is sure to be one (or more) that perfectly meets your needs. Now you can enjoy the benefits of essential oils on the go; simply roll them on and let the magic unfold. So easy even the youngest and oldest can master the tricky, sometimes challenging world of oils. On sale in April, just in time to get over that sugar headache from Easter!

Many of our staff members are qualified to answer your questions, but some have small areas of expertise. By helping to answer your questions, our staff is constantly learning about new products, foods, and other great lifestyle ideas. The more we know, the more we can help you. So please mail, fax, or email your questions, and we will publish them in our upcoming newsletters! We are eager and excited to hear from you!

Dear Avena

I’ve been noticing that some of your products have different names but the same ingredients. Why are they classified differently—and why are the prices so different? (Especially the Essential Oils?)

Answered by

Nicole Tarry

Great observation! Some of our oil blends contain exact ingredients. What varies in each product are the components and quantities of each and the preparation methods of each blend (the recipe). For example, our

Breath-A-Lyzer and Tooth Oil both contain essential oils of almond, peppermint and spearmint. But if you were to taste these two products, you’d taste the difference immediately.

Our Tooth Oil was designed to help clean the teeth and provide fresher breath without the use of harsh abrasives. The clean feeling goes deep into the gums and feels great to brush with. Our Breath-A-Lyzer was designed more for instant fresh breath. The instant reaction varies noticeably, when compared to the Tooth Oil which offer lasting cleanliness.

Two other products that are similar—but achieve different results—are Electric C and Power C. Both of these vitamin C supplements contain comparative ‘recipes’ but the results vary significantly.

Electric C has the unique ability to detoxify on a cellular level (which is incredible). When you look at the sister product

(Power C) you don’t get equal detoxification; instead, you get exceedingly high amounts of vitamin C in a far more concentrated and direct manner. The result: you get much more energy. Each is great in its own right; you just have to decide which is better for you, the immune effects of Electric C or the energy effects of Power C. It’s important to know exactly what you want to achieve when you buy supplements. The more exacting you can be about your goals, the better we can tailor your program! When in doubt, always ask!

Spring Clean Up

W

henever the topic of health is raised, one of Avena’s oft-cited recommendations orbits around a core principle:

“eliminate”. Elimination is, in fact, our most-recommended process! Everyone should “de-tox” a little every day. The good news is that it’s easy enough to do.

When you ELIMINATE anything—clutter, excess, waste, chemicals, drugs, burden, negativity, sludge build-up, confusion and stress—what's left? Cleanliness, functionality, simplicity, lightness, positivity, direction, and happiness! So what’s not to love about eliminating whatever doesn’t add to your life in beneficial ways?

Science has shown that when you eliminate or reduce clutter and excess buildup inside your home, your stress level drops. If this is true inside our homes, imagine what it says about de-cluttering and cleansing our bodies! By cleaning and eliminating the toxic load you’re saddled with, you free your body to regain its robust vigor and vibrancy.

When you aren’t being weighed down, you’re lighter, faster, stronger and more efficient. This is what we should all be striving for because when you’re functioning at your best, there’s just no stopping you.

Don’t forget: elimination is a holistic concept, the merging of body, mind and environment. When you eliminate stress, your body functions better (especially your large intestine).

Suddenly you're not

'losing' your enzymes to stress anymore; they’re actually breaking down your food the way nature intended! When you choose the foods to eat, they’re going to help you or harm you. Poor food choices create sludge that your body doesn’t want or need. This is why cleansing your body regularly is vital! You can eliminate toxins by changing your diet, and you can amp up the process by using products like Avena's Herb Cocktail.

“Figure on one month of herbal healing for every year there has been a problem.”

Cleansing and eliminating toxins can streamline your body. Using products like Herb Cocktail or other cleanses nudges your body into a natural cleansing process—a process that might otherwise take weeks, months or years can happen in days. (When your bowels eliminate current build-up, you encourage the removal of more deeply-entrenched build-up, which is exactly what you need to feel fine again.)

Body cleansing is nothing new. It has been happening for centuries. In fact, many religions encourage some sort of fasting process, which is simply another means of cleansing and detoxifying.

When most of us think about cleansing and eliminating, we picture the removal of undesirables. There are numerous ways to do this. Each method works differently; what might work for someone else may not work for you. This is why focusing on working with your whole body works best when it comes to cleansing.

Spring Clean Up

There are two primary ways to apply the principles of elimination from your diet and lifestyle. The first is to add or increase; the second is to reduce or eliminate. Finding out which works best for you is a process, but there’s nothing to stop you from giving it a go!

When you think of adding, the easiest type of cleansing is flushing your body. You can do this by increasing the amount of liquids (ideally clean, unpolluted water) you drink. This idea uses liquids as the ‘collectors & transporters’ that carry waste from your body. By drastically increasing the amount of water in your diet the surplus hydration allows for the disposal of toxins and build-up because your body is no longer consumed with the need to conserve water.

A more natural elimination method is sweating. It’s still using water as a means of transporting toxins out of your body but instead of urine being the carrier, your sweat serves the function. Water is the most common flushing tool. The end goal is always the same: get the bad stuff out so there’s more room for the good stuff inside you.

Another means of cleansing is by adding cleansing products to your diet/lifestyle that encourage the elimination of toxic build-up. Products that help promote proper bowel function include Avena’s Herb Cocktail.

You can also increase high-fibre foods in your diet: leafy green veggies, raw whole apples, aloe vera, oats and more. Upping the amounts of high-fibre foods prompts your bowel system to greater efficiency so it removes more build-up.

A great time to add specific ingredients to your diet is when you want to remove parasites. Not many of us like to think about parasites but they’re all around us. Most of the time they don’t cause much trouble, but when they do, it can be a real pain!

You can introduce potent herbs into your diet to drive the wee beasties out! Black walnut and wormwood are two of the most powerful herbs used to eliminate parasites.

But it’s important to remember that to move parasites out, you have to give them a way out, so pairing your parasite cleanse with additional water and bowel tonics are recommended.

Most people find it easier to eliminate toxins from the body by adding something to their existing diets, but sometimes you’re going to have to completely remove unwanted, unhealthy items. Reducing bad habits and eliminating practices and foods that carry negative impacts is critical to keeping your body clean and healthy. Most of us believe this process is more difficult than it has to be. We worry about physical withdrawal symptoms (headaches and other symptoms). What most people don’t anticipate is the emotional response—the acute feeling of ‘loss’ when you eliminate something you’ve habitually enjoyed. You imagine not fitting in with friends and worry about what you’ll be able to eat or drink when you sit down to dinner. You associate your bad habit with positive experiences. Ask yourself: would

Starbucks be as popular as it is if it weren’t for the cozy environment that encourages socialization? When we envision eliminating coffee, our minds go to the extreme; we imagine the loss of ambiance and camaraderie, too!

Spring Clean Up

But a similar environment can be created with water, tea, smoothies, and elixirs and so on. Still, the sense of loss is pervasive when we imagine

“going without.”

Enter the power of positivity and encouraging thoughts. As we remove toxic waste and build-up from within our bodies— chemicals, parasites, accumulated waste, etc.—we need to find new outlets for our bodies to relinquish stress and the other emotions that weigh us down. Many people find exercise to be doubly beneficial because the physical act of encouraging positive change combined with the endorphins and ‘feel good’ hormones that exercise releases promotes an amazing feeling of robust wellbeing.

Whenever there is extra weight or fat on our bodies, especially in the stomach region, we begin to associate the extra pounds with creates a stronger body. Your heart and intestines rely on muscles to work; you want to keep them hale and hardy.)

Imagine the absolute power of having a clean body.

Embrace the concept! Freed from toxins, waste and build up, your unbridled body can become dynamic and powerful. You simply can’t eliminate without empowering yourself. Your body has the ability to detoxify but it’s up to you to help it do so. So go ahead: drink more water and reduce or eliminate the toxic feasts that are threatening your health. It is possible; we’re here to help you make it happen!

Did You Know?

The organ most affected by waste is your colon. Your colon is responsible for the elimination of toxic build up. As soon as toxins accumulate in your colon, every other organ feels the effects: suddenly you're not absorbing as much protein, you’re losing water, healthy bacteria levels drop, and you feel it! You have less energy, you feel tired and fatigued. the heaviness of spirit we feel. Proper cleansing nudges your body in the right direction. Some will lose weight and excess fat. Others will gain muscle. (Remember, gaining weight isn’t always bad; gaining muscle weight

Here’s a great tip: Specific items achieve specific results; whole items and programs achieve whole body results. (Examples: black walnut is a concentrated herb that works specifically with parasites; when you drink enough water, full body hydration occurs.)Figure on one month of herbal healing for every year there has been a problem.

Alas, our minds aren’t always as strong as our bodies.

Sometimes your body is no longer addicted, but your mind continues to crave what it used to enjoy. On the other hand, when applied to physicality, often you’ll think you can’t do ‘one more’ squat or lap or leap when

What Happens When Good Things Go Bad?

Your body is designed to run efficiently. All the food you eat should be properly broken down and digested. But what happens when your food remains partially undigested? It can cause serious health problems, that’s what! When you have an unhealthy combination of partially-digested foods (proteins or fats) and negative bacteria, you create a recipe for disaster. What happens is that natural and essential amino acids like tryptophan or tyrosine can be converted into harmful and toxic carcinogens (indole, skatole). To prevent this, you need a healthy, functioning bowel and digestive tract. Nothing achieves this for you like active enzymes and powerful probiotics. These, in combination with a healthy diet and lifestyle, encourage a healthy bowel and are essential to ensuring that life-giving amino acids remain life-giving.

The Herb Cocktail is a gentle thorough cleanse that cleans the bowel while promoting proper peristalsis allowing the body to rebuild while it eliminates unwanted toxins.

Get that deep parasitic clean you didn’t know you needed. This specially-designed herbal blend creates an undesirable environment for undesirable parasites.

There really is a speaker for everyone this year.

Lou Corona

Lou has spent the last 40 years of his life being a student; recently he has become a teacher. As a boy, Lou was diagnosed with a terrible disease. He decided that he had to change to get his life back. Through mentoring and healing foods, he survived. Beyond that, he began to do more than survive: he totally transformed his body! By changing the food he was eating and his compete perspective on life (becoming more positive and focused) he achieved what he cherished most: ROBUST HEALTH.

Some of you may be aware that Lou was a speaker at our 2012 Revitalize. He was one of the first to approach Avena asking to come onboard again. He felt such a connection with the people from the event that he wanted to return. We’re extremely excited to have Lou joining us for Revitalize

2013. He is a wealth of knowledge just bursting at the seams to share. This year will bring new knowledge and time tested know-how. So join him and learn all about his four principles for overall health & wellness that ANYONE can use!

Speakers 2013

Chef Chad Sarno ~ Celebrity Chef & Teacher

Chef Sarno is incredibly talented when it comes to creating amazing raw and plant-based meals.

He recently collaborated with Kris Carr to produce a New York Times Bestselling cook book,

Crazy Sexy Kitchen , which is packed with information and great tasting food! Everyone should find food tasty and delicious; there’s no reason that ‘healthy food’ has to be bland and tasteless.

For our Revitalize Conference this year Chef Sarno is doing double duty. He’ll be helping design an exquisite menu with an emphasis on pre-dinner canap é s that he will personally make. Then he’ll be running a special cooking demonstration to help demystify raw and fresh foods, complete with recipes. This man is one of the elite in the field of plant-based food preparation, so who better to learn from, and how amazing an opportunity will it be to eat the food produced by a famous chef! Chef Sarno is going to bring a fantastic element to Revitalize that will elevate this event from good to GREAT!

Daniel Vitalis ~ Bringing back the Wild

A man very familiar with the healthy living industry, Daniel has been wading these waters for years.

Travelling and doing lots of work with David Wolfe, eventually Daniel found he had a different calling—one that led him back to his roots and back to the natural world it used to be. On a journey of personal discovery, he found that the diet and lifestyle he was surrounded in was close, but just not perfect for him. This led him to changing his ways, his diet, and how he viewed the world. He wanted, he needed, to get back to nature – to “RE-WILD” himself.

Now an excellent teacher, Daniel will share what he has learned on his journey—how the foods that we’re familiar with today may not be as old as we think. He will be touching on what our foods should look like, what they should taste like. With time, he may even touch on how foods that can be found in our backyard can be our own homegrown superfoods; mushrooms and herbs that are local and as fresh as you can get; and on the stark differences between city tap water, chemically-treated bottled water, and fresh spring water; and on how the life force should be in our food, in our water and in our bodies. We need to get back to a time in history when our bodies were active, lithe and thriving!

Rosalyn Fung ~ Food Relationship decoder

No ordinary woman, Rosalyn Fung has a Masters in Marital and Family Therapy and is a Registered

Psychologist in Alberta. Rosalyn is also a Certified Hakomi Therapist, which is a mindfulness-body based therapy approach. An athlete all her life, after the birth of her first child, she became inspired to marry her passion for health, fitness and nutrition with her psychology training. She now specializes in Holistic Nutritional Psychology.

All of this combines to make Rosalyn a wealth of knowledge. Her talk at our Revitalize Conference is going to bring understanding to our relationship with food: how food is vitally important to health but only when we honor our bodies properly. Rosalyn will show you which foods are crucial for health, and she’ll reveal that how you eat is equally crucial. We want to let our food shape us for the positive but sometimes the line gets crossed. Rosalyn’s message will be especially important for those who struggle in their relationships with food (binge/ compulsive eating, overeating, restricted eating, yo-yo dieting), weight, body image, and issues regarding fatigue, digestion, immune response and hormones. We all have a relationship with food (it keeps us alive!). If Rosalyn doesn't speak to YOU personally, she probably speaks to someone YOU KNOW! Since WHAT you eat is only half of the story when it comes to good nutrition, a nutritional psychologist will also help you discover the other half: WHO you are as an eater.

Grai & Wanetta Beal ~ The Power Couple

If you’ve met either of these two, they surely left an impression.

The sheer magnetism they exude is contagious. During

Revitalize 2013, these two are going to share their stories of personal victory and triumph and, beyond that, they will help empower you to greatness. Sometimes the first step to a healthy life is a difficult and challenging one. Grai and

Wanetta will help you discover that ANYTHING is possible.

All you have to do is take the first step. They won’t let you settle for ordinary; why should you, when you can achieve EXTRAORDINARY!

This dynamic duo and power couple has been hard at work on Vancouver Island. Their goal is to help motivate you to change for the better. But they don’t settle for just a little bit better; they strive to bring about massive improvement and lasting results. Both work closely with their clients to empower each one of them to amazing fitness and the transformation of their bodies into works of art! Grai and

Wanetta have experienced phenomenal changes within their own lives and each has a passion that just can’t be contained!

June—Encourage Change

Minerals are among your body’s fundamental building blocks, right up there with raw amino acids in importance. These essential nutrients are key elements of many vital functions within the body. If you can’t sleep well, have constant muscle aches; if you’re tired all the time or feeling weak, these symptoms can all be helped by adding mineral supplementation. Hormonal issues are balanced by minerals, too, so instead of supplementing with fake, poor-quality hormones, try increasing your minerals.

It’s critical to have healthy levels of minerals inside your body because without them serious dis-ease can raise its ugly head!

Avena’s mineral blend combines many of the common minerals that your body needs in higher numbers with trace minerals that are equally important (but in smaller amounts). Give your body the extra boost of minerals it needs.

Try them now while they’re on sale!

There is no need to fear salt; it’s essential for your body’s health. Now you can have confidence you’re getting the best sea salt available today with Avena’s own Pristine Sea Salt. Hand-harvested from the Caribbean ocean, this salt is loaded with essential minerals (some found only in the ocean) and critical minerals like iodine. So give your body some love with great-tasting

Pristine Sea Salt!

With treated water comes dry skin. Avena’s Body Splash is a phenomenal product for rehydrating your skin. Long-lasting and not greasy, this essential oil blend is a pure treat for your skin! The Body Splash has a delightful citrus scent. A special scent that actually repels some insects like mosquitoes, So no more toxic chemical bug spray needed—just sprits a little Body Splash and you’re good to go on any summer day!

Get Your Juice On

What better way to start the day than with an invigorating and refreshing juice! Our bodies crave being energized and hydrated. How can your body perform properly when there is a lack of alkalizing fresh foods? Juicing is a powerful way to enhance nutrient deficiencies and maintain health. That’s where adding a fresh juice to your morning can amp up your health, effectively getting the essential nutrients into your cells while skipping the chewing process. This form of orthomolecular medicine is healing for the body and is perfect for anyone looking to temporarily cleanse. Keep in mind that making your own fresh juice is far more valuable than the processed juice you can buy in a grocery store.

To understand how effective juice cleansing is and why juicing can be so beneficial, watch the documentary “Fat, Sick, and

Nearly Dead”. This inspiring film documents a gentleman named Joe Cross who went on a juice fast for 60 days! The 60-day reboot gave Joe the break he needed to jump start his health journey, which inspired countless people who were tired of being sick and tired, and created a new way to jumpstart their health! If you want my opinion on this film, anyone can watch this movie and take valuable information from it regardless of your state of health or your age. Many will appreciate what Joe’s journey is all about.

Now let’s get to the juicy part of this article! If you’ve never juiced before or you haven’t juiced in a while, start now! Begin tomorrow morning with a deep green drink. Make it sweet! Your body is designed to use and consume an array of foods with vivid colours, from deep greens to vibrant reds and yellows. Add celery, spinach, apples, carrots, and ginger to spice it up.

There are tons of recipe books, blogs, and websites like Rebooting with Joe Cross to check out. One of our favourite drinks at the Avena office is the Ginger Blast! The health benefits of this empowering drink are amazing, and it gives you quite a punch! The ingredients are combined to amp up your pH levels, clean the blood, remove toxins, and infuse your body with huge amounts of vitamins, minerals, proteins and enzymes. On top of that, Ginger Blast encourages weight loss, lowers cholesterol, and assists in bowel cleansing; the list goes on!

In closing, take this time to change up your breakfast or incorporate Ginger Blast into a power meal, and have fun trying a new fresh-squeezed juice!

“Permanent results only come from permanent changes in lifestyle and diet style. You don’t get permanently well unless you permanently change the way you live”

Did you know?

The average 40 year old person will take anywhere from 1-2 years to completely cleanse his or her intestinal tract. This may seem like a long time, but consider the years of build-up and how long it took to get the way it is. After reading this, don’t feel overwhelmed. Simply take the first step to rebuild and empower your health. After that, the benefits you enjoy will encourage you to keep going.

Enhancing Beet Juice

(Beets can even enhance stamina!)

Ingredients:

2 Golden Delicious Apples

1 Large Raw Beetroot

1 Large Carrot

Ice cubes

Directions:

Simply juice the apples, beetroot, carrot and celery, and pour over ice.

Testimonials

This program was a very valuable experience for me. I have suffered: with chronic arthritis since I was 12 as the years have progressed I have found it increasingly difficult to make a fist and as person whom makes a living with my hands this had become a real concern. I was amazed that just after 6 weeks on this programme my hands were able to grip my tools without pain and the rest of my body showed significant reduction in pain as well. I would highly recommend this process to anyone who was considering it. Thank-you to all who put their time and effort into this to make it a life changing experience for me.
