History
In 1933, August and Carmalita Zamzow founded a feed formulation and manufacturing business. Hard work, quality feeds, customer service and integrity grew their company, Zamzows, Inc. into a 10 store retail chain that still thrives today. These attributes have always been the cornerstones of Dynamite.
In 1982, Jim Zamzow, grandson of August and Carmalita, founded Dynamite Marketing, Inc. Jim’s vision is to improve the health of all living beings through better nutrition. Dynamite products reflect this vision. Jim is a graduate of Boise State University and has extensively studied nutrition, soil science, microbiology, mycology and herbal medicine. Jim also works closely with a vast network of nationally recognizable experts in these fields to develop for Dynamite the finest products available.
Jim’s children, Jos Zamzow and Callie Novak have worked in the business their whole lives. In Dynamite’s third decade, they took on leadership roles. Jos primarily leads the fertilizer division and manufacturing while Callie leads the Specialty Products (MLM) division operations. As a family, the Zamzows are committed to the legacy of August and Carmelita and a hereditary dedication to hard work, quality products and unsurpassed customer service.

Dangers in aspartame and side effects of splenda

Aspartame, the main ingredient in Equal and NutraSweet, is responsible for the most serious cases of poisoning, because the body actually digests it. Aspartame should be avoided by most women, but particularly in those with neuropsychiatric concerns. Recent studies in Europe show that aspartame use can result in an accumulation of formaldehyde in the brain, which can damage your central nervous system and immune system and cause genetic trauma. The FDA admits this is true, but claims the amount is low enough in most that it shouldn’t raise concern. I think any amount of formaldehyde in your brain is too much.

Aspartame has had the most complaints of any food additive available to the public. It’s been linked with MS, lupus, fibromyalgia and other central nervous disorders. Possible side effects of aspartame include headaches, migraines, panic attacks, dizziness, irritability, nausea, intestinal discomfort, skin rash, and nervousness. Some researchers have linked aspartame with depression and manic episodes. It may also contribute to male infertility.




Evidence that there are side effects of Splenda is accumulating little by little. Sucralose has been implicated as a possible migraine trigger, for example. Self-reported adverse reactions to Splenda or sucralose collected by the Sucralose Toxicity Information Center include skin rashes/flushing, panic-like agitation, dizziness and numbness, diarrhea, swelling, muscle aches, headaches, intestinal cramping, bladder issues, and stomach pain. These show up at one end of the spectrum — in the people who have an allergy or sensitivity to the sucralose molecule. But no one can say to what degree consuming Splenda affects the rest of us, and there are no long-term studies in humans with large numbers of subjects to say one way or the other if it’s safe for everyone




If you like the taste of sodas but wish there was a healthier alternative there is. By adding Stevia, a natural sweetner, along with Capella, flavoring drops, you can make yourself a delicous homemade soda without all the unhealthy stuff!!

Stevia is the better choice.

We’ve known about stevia in the US since 1918, but pressure from the sugar import trade blocked its use as a commodity. Today stevia is slowly gaining steam as a sugar substitute, despite similar hurdles. The FDA has approved its use as a food supplement, but not as a food additive due to a lack of studies. Stevia can be used for anything you might use sugar in, including baking. It is naturally low in carbohydrates. You can buy stevia at most health food stores and over the web. There will always be those who have a sensitivity to a substance, but based on reports from other countries it appears to have little to no side effects. For women who want to move through their cravings for sugar without artificial chemicals, stevia is a great option.

Allergies or Detoxification?


More and more people are experiencing allergies and suffering with the symptoms they bring. In past Wellness Reports we have discussed how histamine receptors trigger inflammation in the four tissues they populate: the airways, the digestive/reproductive tract, our brain and our immune system. Histamine is very inflammatory and easily triggers runaway inflammation.
In this discussion we will look specifically at histamines, toxins and allergies. We will also get a chance to discuss ways to help reduce the impact of allergies and their annoying symptoms.

Allergy or toxin?
The symptoms of allergy may be more obscure than you think. For example, sneezing may be an allergy symptom, but muscle pain, insomnia and acid reflux may also be signs of allergy. These are signs of excessive histamines.
The symptoms of toxicity may also be more obscure than you think. For example, headaches, joint pains, colitis and poor coordination may be signs of toxicity. So may skin eruptions.
Your body has a unique detoxification system. It comes with many fail-safe mechanisms. A toxin may simply be detoxified and rendered harmless – usually by the liver. This is often accomplished through enzymes with the help of antioxidants. These poisons may be turned into useful tools, such as when blood toxins are turned into bile to help us digest fat from our diet.
Some toxins are difficult to detoxify; they may be stored permanently in fat. Other toxins and allergens are stored temporarily in water in the lymphatic system. This is why people get "puffy" with allergies or toxicity.
Another technique for ridding your body of toxins is excretion through your urine, colon, lungs, breath (about 75% of all body toxins are eliminated by breathing deeply), and also through your skin. Toxins that come out through the skin leave distinct blemishes. They may become infected and leave scars. Allergies that affect the skin have a different appearance, usually as large, water-filled blisters or hives. These are signs of excessive histamines.

How do I know?
How can you tell if you are having an allergic reaction versus a detoxification reaction? Easy: histamines elevate your pulse rate.
Do this: First thing in the morning, before you have a drink of water, before you brush your teeth, before you do anything else sit quietly for a few minutes and count your pulse rate. Count it for a full minute and write it down. Now, ingest the substance you want to test and continue to sit quietly for another 5 minutes. Practice some deep breathing to keep yourself relaxed and calm. At the end of 5 minutes, count your pulse rate again. A substance that is "good for you" will not elevate your pulse rate; or, if it does, it will not be much – 2 to 4 beats per minute. If you are allergic to the substance it will elevate your pulse rate a lot: 6 to 8 beats per minute for a mild allergy, 8 to 12 for a moderate allergy and more than 12 for a significant allergy.
You can use this technique with any food or other substance to which you suspect you are allergic.
Is it allergies – or detoxification?

Splenda not such a splendid idea to use this product.

Sucralose (aka Splenda)
Discovered in 1976, it is made by chlorinating sugar! It was discovered by accident. Two Tate & Lyle scientists were looking for a way to test chlorinated sugars as chemical intermediates when there was a gross misunderstanding. Leslie Hough asked his young Indian colleague Shashikant Phadnis to test the powder. Phadnis thought Hough said “taste,” and he did—it was very sweet! A final sweetener formula was developed within a year.
Sucralose is composed of 50 percent phenylalanine, 40 percent aspartic acid, and 10 percent methyl alcohol. In 1998 it was approved by the FDA. In 2000 concerns over safety surfaced, including a lack of long-term studies. Reported symptoms of sensitivity to this compound include headaches, dizziness/balance problems, mood swings, vomiting and nausea, abdominal pain and cramps, seizures and convulsions, and changes in vision. Concerns have also been raised regarding its effect on the thymus gland—crucial to proper immune system functioning.

Is chocolate really healthy?

Why is it good on HCG?
All the information below tells how great the chocolate is. Plus it is  DARK CHOCOLATE that tastes GREAT!!

Healthy Chocolate
Our Healthy Chocolate is produced with pure unprocessed cacao that is blanched, unfermented, sun-dried, non-roasted, non-alkalized, non-lecithinized, and coldpressed. Because these proprietary processes are closely monitored, Xoçai™. delivers the maximum amount of antioxidants naturally found in unprocessed cacao.

Cacao: Antioxidant Super Food
Many people don't realize that unprocessed Cacao is the highest source of antioxidants in the world, and that Googling "cacao" and "health" will return over a million results. And it's not just NBC, CNN, and CBS that are reporting on the healthy benefits of chocolate, it's medical professionals, scientists, and researches. So eat more chocolate! Not so fast. Most commercial chocolate is anything but unprocessed. Chocolate treats found on store shelves lose their healthy benefits from over processing such as dutching and roasting, and most store brands add unhealthy processed sugar, milk, fats, fillers, waxes and preservatives.

Antioxidants
Just as they sound, antioxidants are chemicals that prevent oxidation of other compounds.

Oxidation
Think about bananas turning brown or metal rusting, both are results of oxidation; a process of adding oxygen to a compound. This process can produce "free radicals" molecules, which is an atom with an unpaired electron.
Science has taught us that oxidation occurs in our bodies naturally and certain behaviors can intensify the process such as smoking, pollution, poor diet, and unchecked exposure to the sun. But science has also shown that we can defend against oxidation or Free Radical damage with Antioxidants.

Health Benefits of Cacao
In our bodies antioxidants can react with free radicals to make them more stable and less likely to cause damage to our lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Damage to these vital molecules has been linked to many common health issues and chronic diseases. Our bodies can defend against oxidation, but this ability declines with age. Eating antioxidant-rich foods can enhance our natural defenses. A few plant-based foods meet this criteria and are distinguished by their high polyphenol content.
A subclass of polyphenols are flavonoids that are found abundantly in cacao. Research on flavonoids make them well-known for their antioxidant characteristics, their help in supporting the immune system, and their positive effect on the health of the cardiovascular system.

ORAC
Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a standard for quantitating a food's ability to offset the harmful effects of free radicals. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Journal of the American Chemical Society dark chocolate tops the list for ORAC on a per serving basis.

Brunswick Labs
The Brunswick Labs Certification Program is a third party and independent laboratory test performed on Xoçai™ products three times a year that certify the ORAC and Flavonoid values displayed on Xoçai™'s product packaging.
"The Brunswick Labs Seal assures consumers that they are getting one of nature's premiere antioxidant-rich foods." - Brunswick Labs

Conclusion:
Cacao is abundantly rich in Flavonoids.
All-natural unprocessed cacao is healthier than commercially processed chocolate.
Xoçai™ Healthy Chocolate is raw unprocessed chocolate that maintains cacao's natural Flavonoids.

Demystifying the pH of Drinking Water

Can understanding the significance of the pH of drinking water help you choose better water for you and your family?  Yes.  When you are choosing between bottled, tap, filtered or not, or distilled vs. purified water, understanding the role that water plays assisting your body in its quest to maintain proper pH at 7.365 is critical.

The pH level of a substance tells you whether it is an acid, a base, or neutral.  On the pH scale, which is 0-14, things with a pH of 7 are neutral, higher than 7 are basic, and lower than 7 are acidic.  Water is often considered neutral, with the normal range for surface water systems ranging from 6.5-8.5. At the proper pH of 7.365, your body is not only hydrated, but is better able to flush out toxins and waste products.

Water with a pH lower than 6.5 is acidic and “soft.”  While soft water is great for getting soaps and detergents to lather, it can be a sign that your water contains metals such as iron, manganese, copper, lead, and zinc, all of which can be harmful when ingested in large quantities.  Water with a very low pH often tastes metallic and can leave blue-green stains on sinks and drains.

Water that has a pH higher than 8.5 is basic and “hard.”  Hard water generally doesn’t pose the same health risks that soft water can, but it can taste bitter and make it difficult for soaps and detergents to lather.
When considering pH, it is also helpful to consider water’s alkalinity.  Alkalinity is a measure of the capacity of the water to resist a change in pH that would typically make the water more acidic.  This resistance to change is one of alkaline water’s benefits.

Along with the pH level, it also helps to understand the difference between distilled vs. purified water, because things like minerals found in the water can have an effect on its pH.  Technically, distilled water is a form of purified water, but it is differentiated by the method used to remove impurities.  Distilled water is heated until it boils and turns into a vapor, and then the vapor is cooled until it again reenters a liquid state.

During this process, virtually all impurities are left behind when the water turns to vapor.  This creates very pure water, but because it has no additives, it tastes awful, and can actually pull minerals from your body when you drink it, so it shouldn’t be used as drinking water on a regular basis.  Purified water is water that has gone through any form of purification process, often some form of filtration.  Because the methods of purification are varied, the pureness of the water also varies greatly.

To make sure that you are drinking the best water for your health, a purified water system that provides alkaline water in your home as well as removes harmful substances from your drinking water is your safest and most economical solution.
