"Happiness is the
object and design of our existence and will be the end
thereof, if we pursue the path that leads to it - and
this path is virtue, uprightness, faithfulness, holiness,
and keeping all the commandments. Here, then, is the secret
of joy and happiness-keeping all the commandments."

Chitosan is an all-natural product, which is derived from the
polysaccharide chitin. Chitin is found in the exo-skeletons
of shrimp, crabs and other shellfish. The Chitosan has the unique
ability to attach itself to lipids or fats. There are no calories
in Chitosan since it is not digestible.
Chitosan attaches to fat in the stomach before it is metabolized.
The Chitosan traps the fat and prevents its absorption in the
digestive tract. The fat binds to the Chitosan fiber and becomes
a large mass, which the body cannot absorb. This large mass
is then eliminated from the body. Neutralizing fat after it
enters the stomach spares the body from having to deal with
the fat.
Chitosan fiber differs from other fibers in that it possesses
a positive ionic charge. This positive charge gives Chitosan
the ability to chemically bond with negatively charged lipids,
fats and bile acids.
This dietary fiber is a valuable addition to a properly balanced
weight management program. Fibers also provide important cleansing
attributes, which aid in the digestive process and promote digestive
tract health.
Koji Asaoka (medical writer) and Dr. Mutsuoki Kai have written
a book Chitin Chitosan, The Choice Food Supplement
for over 10,000 physicians in Japan: A Complete analysis of
its clinical applications to various diseases (Vantage Press,
Inc. 1996) - to quote:
"If the present status of chitin-chitosan had been found
thirty years ago, chitin-chitosan would have been regarded as
medicine. The dietary tertiary function consists of the following
five important functions:
| 1) |
fortification
of immunity |
| 2) |
prevention of
aging |
| 3) |
prevention of
illness |
| 4) |
recovery from
illness |
| 5) |
control of biorhythm.
Chitin chitosan activates the whole body's cells and makes
the whole body healthy, and at the same time strengthens
immune cells that eat cancer cells and infective viruses,
causes the sick parts to recover from illness, adjusts
an unbalanced autonomic nervous system to normal condition
and removes unspecified complaints coming from autonomic
nervous imbalance. Its action is not only local but general
to improve the total body. For instance, a person who
eats it to decrease high blood pressure loses shoulder
stiffness and insomnia, and get more energy." |
