Bilberry Juice

I’ve been looking for something that has Bilberry in it ever since a book I read on improving my vision mentioned the great affect Bilberries have on the eyes.

I originally thought I would find a Bilberry tea but I couldn’t find it anywhere. And then when I was at a local health food market, one of the workers, Carl, told me that they had Bilberry juice. I bought some and tried it and it was great!

It is not a concentrate and it isn’t processed like a lot of juices. Just 100% Bilberry juice and I’m excited that I found it.

My father has been taking a Bilberry supplement and the eye doctor recently told him his eyes were in suprisingly good shape. He is over 70 now and he and my mother have stayed very healthy. I’m proud of them, especially my mom for working so hard to learn about health, herbs, supplements and a number of other subjects.

Oh, in case you were wondering, here is some additional information on eyesight improvement:

Carrot Juice

Since I’m talking about juices, I thought I would mention my experience with carrot juice. I used to have a juicer. I need to get another one, because juicing is one of the best things for you. But, it needs to be freshly made juice and you should drink the juice directly upon making it, or many of the benefits are lost.

Anyway, there have been a few occassions where I drank carrot juice and then ventured out at night. When this happened I noticed that my night vision became much sharper than normal. The effect would last a couple of hours. If you have a juicer and you have had a similar experience, leave a comment below.

Quitting Soda pop

A guy at work was recently telling me about how he wants to quit drinking soft drinks. I thought about it and mentioned that the transition might be easier if he had some really good tasting herbal tea. I happened to have some Yerba Mate Latte made by The Republic of Tea and let him try some. This stuff is good and he thought so too. My guess is that it is a lot easier to give up something like soft drinks if you have a good tasting, more natural and healthy alternative.

Another worker at the store, Anna-Marie, helped me to realize that loose leaf teas are far, far superior than the kind that come in a bag.

And in case you worry about the cost of herbal tea, the Yerba Matte Latte I mentioned makes 50-60 servings of tea. It cost me ten bucks. But compare that to 50 Cents minimum for 50 soft drinks and you can see that the tea is more cost effective.

LLLT – Low Level Laser Therapy update

Well, it is day two on my LLLT experiment. No hair regrowth so far. However, something seemingly weird has happened. It seems that my hair didn’t ‘fly away’, as it usually does in strong wind. Don’t know if that was related to the LLLT or not, but it is an interesting coincidence if not more than that.

I’m not endorsing LLLT for hairloss, I’m simply investigating it.
