An overview of Dietary Supplements

How many times have you almost clicked on that pop-up Internet ad to buy a supplement that promises to give you relief from your agonizing asthma symptoms or one that will endow your skin with a healthy glow? There is a lot of interest and debate on the health benefits of dietary supplements. Do we actually know what the term dietary supplement means and are their benefits to health scientifically proven?

What are dietary supplements?

In the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, the U.S. Congress defined dietary supplements as products that are taken orally, and contain a dietary ingredient, like vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, and substances such as enzymes, organ tissues, glandulars, and metabolites all of which aims to supplement the diet. Dietary supplements, also called nutritional supplements, can also be extracts or concentrates and can come in forms such as tablets, capsules, softgels, gelcaps, liquids and even powders. The Act specifically states that dietary supplements must be labeled as such and must not be sold as a replacement for a conventional food or as the sole item for a meal.

Are supplements essential to good health?
While we more often than not question the efficacy of a medication, we seldom probe the benefits of a vitamin or a mineral supplement. What is important to know is that no matter how expensive or popular a vitamin supplement is it cannot replace a diet that is rich in natural nutrients. They are a safeguard against deficiency but everyone need not take them. If you’re eating a healthy diet (consuming between 1600 – 2800 calories), with lots of fruit, vegetables, grains and fiber, plenty of fluids in the form of water and other beverages, eating fortified foods, you may not add supplements. However, if you are at risk for a nutritional deficiency, you may need to take them. People who are more likely to need a supplement are those who consume less than 1200 calories a day, elderly people, strict vegetarians, people who are lactose intolerant, pregnant women, smokers and alcoholics, people who are recuperating from an illness and people who don’t consume a variety of foods.

Pros And Cons For Vitamin Supplements – Are They Good Or Bad?

There are a number of pros and cons for vitamin supplements. You may find yourself reading articles and watching adverts that claim vitamin supplements are the best things since sliced bread – a cure for everything and a suitable alternative for a diet that is rich in nutritional value. However, there are both pros and cons for vitamin supplements, and they are certainly not an alternative for good health and good diet. Whether you are taking vitamin supplements, fiber supplements, acid supplements, or any other type of supplement, it is important to follow direction with regards to dosage and frequency for optimum benefit.

It is also important to consider all the pros and cons of vitamin supplements. These supplements can benefit users that take them in addition to a healthy diet and lifestyle, but they should not be considered an alternative. Many people experience the pros of these supplements because they use them correctly and do not try and replace a healthy lifestyle and diet with these vitamins. Those that experience the cons are those that don’t take them as directed, and think that the supplements mean that they can eat a poor diet and follow an unhealthy lifestyle.

Buying High Quality – Why This Is Important

In order to truly benefit from supplements, you need to know what is actually in the supplement, and this means buying quality supplements that meet strict safety standards. Not all supplements are the same, and some may use lower quality ingredients and different amounts of ingredient to others. Buying quality products that have met the necessary standards will ensure that you enjoy safe and effective benefits.

Vitamin Supplements and Your Child

In a perfect world, your children would eat a balanced diet with the right amount of fruits and vegetables recommended by nutritional standards. However, we all know that rarely happens. Many children do not like and sometimes refuse to eat some kinds of fruits and vegetables. This makes it difficult to ensure they are receiving a well-balanced diet that provides all the vitamins and minerals needed for a healthy life. There are things you can do as a parent to ensure your child is receiving adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals in their diet.

Using vitamin and mineral supplements to ensure a well-balanced diet can begin during pregnancy. It is very important for pregnant mothers to obtain the recommended dose of folate and vitamin B-6, since it is an essential component in the formation of genetic material and hemoglobin in red blood cells. Lack of folic acid can cause the mother to become anemic and increases the risk of miscarriage. Folic acid deficiency may also cause the child to be born with a deformity or disability. If you are pregnant and you feel you cannot obtain the adequate amounts of vitamin B-6 on your own, it may be a good idea to look into a vitamin supplement for the duration of your pregnancy and talk to your Doctor.

Once your child is born there are more steps you can take in the first 2 years of their lives, which may increase their vitamin intake and provide a healthier lifestyle. Babies who are breastfed often lack vitamin D. This is not as necessary if the mother is eating a well-balanced diet, however breast milk alone does not give the baby the recommended daily amount of vitamin D. Formula fed babies do not need any vitamin supplementation. Medically approved, commercial iron-fortified formulas provide babies with the recommended amount of vitamins they need, so babies require no additional supplements. Giving vitamin supplements to a baby who is already receiving the daily recommendation can be harmful and potentially become very dangerous for your child.

When your child reaches the age of about 2 (and older) and is eating solid foods from all food groups, vitamin supplements are usually not necessary. Try and provide the adequate amount of vitamins and minerals to your children through the foods they eat regularly. Sometimes this can be an impossible task and if you think your child is lacking the sufficient amounts of vitamins, the best thing to do is to contact their doctor who will recommend whether or not vitamin supplements are necessary. It is important to remember that vitamin supplements are meant to accompany food and are in no way meant as a replacement for a healthy diet.

Coenzyme Q10 – Learn All the Wonderful Properties of this Vitamin-Like Nutrient

Sometimes I ask myself why this wonderful antioxidant supplement was given such a technical name, many people feel intimidated by the name alone, thus refusing to take CoQ10. But the truth is that this nutrient is one of the most effective antioxidants and it has been proven to help many serious diseases. In this issue, we will study in depth the benefits and properties that researchers have found in this “vitamin like” substance called Coenzyme Q10.

Probably you haven’t even heard the name Coenzyme Q10, or if you have, you don’t even know what it does or why you should take it.

The potential and most of the properties found in CoQ10 have been recognized rather recently. CoQ10 is known to scientists as ubiquinol, this is a naturally occurring nutrient normally present in every cell in the body, so it is only logical to believe that it plays an important part in treating many conditions and preventing them.

The body makes CoQ10, but most likely the majority of people don’t make it well or enough of it, the good news is that we can absorb CoQ10 from foods, especially fish, and meats (particularly organ meats like liver, kidney, etc., more on this later), the bad news is that most people don’t eat these types of meats, plus as we age the body loses it efficiency in manufacturing important nutrients, it has been proven that people suffering from heart diseases and cancer have lower levels of CoQ10, thus supplementation is recommended.

You may ask yourself, why do you call it a “vitamin like substance” and not a vitamin, if it has so many properties? That is a great question, and the answer is that a vitamin is defined as any nutrient that cannot be manufactured by the body (at least not in sufficient amounts) and hence has to be taken by supplementation or by ingesting it through foods, that’s the reason why it was not called a vitamin, although my personal opinion is that they should have named it a vitamin.

The role of CoQ10 in our health and body functions

This important nutrient plays two major roles in the body. First, CoQ10 helps in the energy production within each cell. The body, just like a car, needs fuel. Our primary source of fuel is through fats, proteins, and carbohydrates in our diet. After digestion in the stomach, the nutrients from foodstuffs are absorbed into the bloodstream and circulate to various tissues and cells. The cells have to break down the sugars, fats and amino acids in a form that makes energy. This energy production occurs in organelles, or microscopic organ-like structures, called mitochondria, and CoQ10 plays a key role in this activity.

There are hundreds, sometimes thousands, of mitochondria within each cell. In a sense, they are the factories of your cells, with the final product being energy. The energy that is produced is stored in a chemical called adenosine triphosphate, or simply ATP. It is carried by electrons and protons, which are sub atomic particles. These energetic electrons and protons are moved around in cells to their destinations by numerous compounds. CoQ10 is one of the most important compounds.

CoQ10 also serves as an antioxidant, which is its second role. By controlling the movement of electrons, CoQ10 limits the production of dangerous free radicals, which are molecules lacking one electron in what should be a pair. To learn more about free radicals and antioxidants go here http://www.homemademedicine.com/articles/antioxidants.html

So far many researches and clinical studies have shown CoQ10 to be an amazing tool that helps us fight and prevent many dangerous conditions. Among these are:

Congestive heart failure
Coronary artery disease
High cholesterol
High blood pressure
Mitral valve prolapse
Breast Cancer
Periodontitis or Gingivitis
and Fatigue

Another important aspect in the uses of CoQ10, is the prevention of many conditions, CoQ10 helps maintain normal heart function and preventing serious heart disease. Our heart works 24 hrs a day, using lots of energy, to pump blood though the body, and since CoQ10 plays an important role in energy production, it has shown to be a very valuable heart energizing nutrient.

But why doctors don’t recommend more the use of CoQ10?

Hundreds of scientific studies have been published on CoQ10, including many involving humans. CoQ10 has also been the subject of ten international scientific and medical meetings. Furthermore, the role of CoQ10 in energy production was basis of the 1978 Nobel prize in chemistry, given to Peter Mitchell, Ph.D.

Unfortunately, most doctors in the US are not familiar with the published research regarding the potential of CoQ10 because many of the journals they read rarely discuss the benefits of this and many other nutrients. The reason for this is very simple, nutrients cannot be patented so they are of very little interest to pharmaceutical companies and drug manufacturing laboratories and these are the companies that sponsor and publish most of the journals read by doctors.

However, traveling around Europe, China, Japan and South America, has shown me that the story is completely different in the rest of the world, where most health-care professionals are treating their patients with heart failure and other conditions by prescribing CoQ10. In fact, CoQ10 is the fifth most commonly prescribed “drug” in Japan.

But how much CoQ10 do we get from foods and is it enough?

Dietary intake of CoQ10 normally ranges from 2 to 20 mg a day. Most of this comes from meats and fish. The richest source of CoQ10 is organ meat, like liver, kidney, and heart. If you don’t eat these types of meats, chances are that your body does not have adequate level of CoQ10. Supplements in these cases is recommended. Younger people tend to get enough CoQ10 from food and from their own body production, but as we age the ability of the body to make and absorb CoQ10 drops significantly, for people in the middle age group I recommend a dosage of 30mg a day, although people taking 60 to 100 mg a day have reported a significant improvement in alertness, energy level, motivation, mood elevation, and enhanced focus.

Fortunately, CoQ10 has no serious side effects, 1.5 percent of people taking 60 to 100 mg a day have reported nausea, and insomnia, due to the energizing effects of CoQ10. Also, this wonderful nutrient can be taken for years non-stop with only positive results. I recommend to start slow, with a dosage of 10 mg a day and gradually increase it to the desired dosage or until satisfactory results have been achieved.

I hope this issue helps you come to the conclusion that Coenzyme Q10 is one of most important essential nutrients which are needed for a healthy body and to treat several conditions.

God and the Gays: Of Vice and Men (Part 4)

Why do we do the things we do? Who hasn’t asked themselves that question at one time or another? Must we remain creatures of habit? Is there “No Way Out?” Even the apostle Paul wrestled with this problem, but he came to the happy conclusion that we can overcome all in Christ (Rom. 7:14-25; Philip. 4:13). But Christ Himself said it wouldn’t be easy, and Paul basically admitted that we’d have to go through hell before Heaven would be established on earth (Acts 14:22). Yet as Thomas Paine declared: “The harder the conflict the more glorious the Triumph.” And indeed there is a war within, a dueling conflict of interests, a dual nature that demands constant attention (1 Pet. 2:11; Ga. 5:17). True Christians are even compared to soldiers that must learn how to effectively fight and become toughened in the process (2 Tim. 2:3; 1 Tim. 6:12). We’re commanded to kill carnality, subdue sin, and force ourselves into line (Col. 3:5; Mat. 11:12). Of course, it’s only through the power and Spirit of God that we’re able to overcome, grow, and conquer all of those things that would love to tear us down (Ps. 60:12; Ephes. 6:10-17).

What is one man’s strength is another man’s weakness, but we must all struggle to attain God’s Image through the process of conversion (Philip. 3:12). We’re to become spiritually stronger by carrying our cross and bearing our burden; they’re to make us and not break us. Although we’re presently only too human, we’re offered the opportunity to increasingly partake of the divine nature and holiness (2 Pet. 1:4), experiencing in advance the glory of the Kingdom of God (Heb. 6:5); all contingent upon our response to God’s lead, submission to His Will, and the exercising of His Spirit (Rom. 8:14).

Considering how transcendent true spirituality can be, why do we allow ourselves to lower our sights and settle for less (Rom. 8:6)? How damnable are such distractions that would disrupt our clear concepts of Christ and His Kingdom! Satan attempts to short-circuit God’s Spirit, cause static on our wavelength to Heaven, and overload our minds to jam God’s message (Ephes. 2:2).

We’re to keep life’s purpose uppermost in mind, putting all things in perspective, enjoying the light of this Vision (2 Tim.1:7; Ephes.1:17-19). Yet the god of this present world’s system has blinded his subjects to their glorious potential (2 Cor. 4:4), led them astray by tinsel temptations, and enslaved them through deceitful sin.

Adrenalin and Ego

The Bible reveals that two of men’s biggest problems are LUST and PRIDE (1 John 2:16). They go hand in hand, and are like a dog chasing its tail: a vicious cycle. Why do we keep going out to the bars? Because it’s an addiction. When you’re all dressed up, and want to strut your stuff, where else is there to go? It’s adrenalin and ego. They’re partners for life – or death. They artificially energize us and bring us back for more.

Who doesn’t like to cruise and be cruised? There’s always that challenge of the chase, that anticipation of the evening. But what if the next time your catch includes some sexual disease? Are you ready and willing to exchange the cool clothes and hot look for a hospital robe? Those boots that are made for walkin’ for slippers? That well-groomed hair for baldness? Go from Mr. Popular to poor pariah? It is a possibility. It is reality. But then we don’t like to think about such disturbing thoughts, and besides, it always happens to someone else, “the other guy.” At least so far. Well? Another notch on the bedpost might be another foot in the grave. This is a serious subject and an uncomfortable one, but as far as promiscuity goes – you’ve got to stop it, before it stops you!

We’re told that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life (Rom. 6:23). Ultimately, the penalty for every sin unrepented of is death (Rev. 21:8), but some sins exact their penalty quicker than others. Is AIDS a plague sent from some angry God? Could He be upset with our stubborn ways (Mark 3:5)? Is it possible God’s simply taken away His protective shield (Isa.5:5), and left us at the mercy of cause and effect (Jer. 2:19; 4:18)? God reveals that same-sex practices are self-destructive and contrary to what’s natural (Rom. 1:26-28). He also explodes the myth that it’s harmless and declares both minds and bodies become abused (Ps. 107:17). Does this stark fact justify “gay-bashing?” NO! We need to pray for those entangled in sin’s web.

Nothing’s so hypocritical as a straight couple (living together with children out of wedlock) getting interviewed as they watch the spectacle of a “Gay Pride” parade. Shaking their heads, they say: “We just think it’s disgusting. Besides, the Bible says it wrong.” Since when did they ever care about what the Bible has to say? It probably has a few things to say to them also! Everybody needs to get their act together and straighten up (Isa. 40:3). We could all use some “home-improvement” (1 Cor. 6:19-20). Whereas there are many sins – and sin is simply breaking God’s code of conduct (1 John 3:4) – this booklet’s specifically dealing with homosexuality, although the principles contained within these pages pertain to all.

Offensive Stereotypes

What’s so difficult for heterosexuals to comprehend is that being gay is as normal for homosexuals as being straight is for them. And that many homosexuals also can’t understand the sexual attraction of straights. Both “sexes” are a mystery to each other! Gays are quite capable of appreciating a woman’s mind, beauty or charm – but are generally repulsed at the thought of having sex with one! Many women adore their unique relationships with homosexuals because they know they’re accepted for who they are without any ulterior motives. It’s refreshing to be free of sexual harassment or pressure. Although there are other women who consider gay men a tremendous turn on, and are titillated by the challenge to be their first and “convert” them.

It’s offensive to be thoughtlessly thrown in together, as if we all shared the same sexual desires or fantasies, or to be stereotyped as drag-queens or pinko sissies! Homosexuals are individuals and as different from one another as heterosexuals are. We have our “Marlboro Men” as well as a “Minnie Mouse” or two, some who are promiscuous and others who remain monogamous or celebrate celibacy. And the idiotic idea that homosexuals will jump for anything that happens to be male is an insult. Don’t flatter yourself. Homosexuals have their own tastes, preferences and standards (or lack of them) like everybody else. Should that be so surprising?

Homosexuals shouldn’t be equated with rapists. Rarely would they force themselves upon anyone who wasn’t a willing person or a consenting adult. However, as in the “straight” world, there are those ugly exceptions to the rule who don’t know how to take no for an answer or keep their hands to themselves.This isn’t an attempt to promote homosexuality (it doesn’t need any) or enlist hungry recruits. It’s an honest effort to dispel myths and help rid people of dangerous misconceptions. Only the truth can liberate us from lies and deliver us from deception. A new and improved understanding is essential for everybody’s growth.

As for those who might forget that homosexuals are human – whom Christ also died for and seeks to save – they’d do well to remember that immature name-calling falls into the same category of those who could be held in contempt of court (Mat. 5:22).

Hate-words such as nigger, spic, kike or faggot aren’t representative of God’s Kingdom. But then again, neither is yelling bigot or such brand names as sexist, homophobe, and racist (1 John 2:9). Condemning all Christians because of the words or actions of a few is foolish.

Sometimes we need to forcibly remind ourselves that everyone is potentially in God’s image. We must hate the sin, but never the sinner. And we should hate the sin – not just because it upsets up or disturbs us personally – but because it’s harming the sinner (whom we should love). This goes against the flow and demands that we rise above ourselves and our petty prejudices, but it’s prayerfully possible (Mat. 5:45). And again, there are degrees of homosexuality. Some are “gay all the way” or bisexual (double trouble!), while others only experiment with it and decide it’s not for them. There are also those who wish to God they were straight and could marry and have a family (often due to unbearable pressure or religious convictions).

Few homosexuals are mass murderers or child-molesters, contrary to exaggerated fears and bizarre movies or twisted individuals. Any “sex-offender” will be denied entrance into God’s Kingdom (Rev. 21:27). Perverts will find themselves prevented from spoiling Paradise. It’s not just because of their physical acts, but because of their mind’s spiritual miscarriage. It’s their attitude, not just their selfish actions, that abort their royal birth.

Active homosexuals and practicing heterosexuals, must repent of their sexual sins and become practicing – not just professing – Christians! It’s something that will have to be kept under control daily, even though it can be frustrating and frightening to forego such a personal part of our lives, but it’s for a good cause: God’s Kingdom (Isa. 56:4-5).

Remember, as stated before, God forbids any premarital or extramarital sex. He hasn’t made an exception for homosexuals. There’s no preferential treatment. Even if God did allow homosexuality – which He doesn’t – that wouldn’t excuse continued careless sex, but would require of homosexuals the same as heterosexuals: no illicit sex, a strictly monogamous relationship, and a sure commitment. God doesn’t have a double-standard.

We have to overcome lust or it will overcome us. Without a doubt, sex is one of the greatest physical sensations. No wonder it’s so popular – but it comes and it goes. Since we’re here today and gone tomorrow – is sex (or a relationship) really worth giving up eternal life for? If we could only begin to grasp how transcendent, pure and glorious our spiritual experiences are destined to be – the rotting flesh can’t compare! The divine delights are so far superior, utterly indescribable to mortal man, that it’s mind-boggling! God is the joyous Fountain of Life with flowing Rivers of endless Pleasures (Ps. 16:11; 36:8)!

The Fire Within

Everyone – gay or straight – has the “fire” within (1 Cor. 7:9). Some burn more than others, but it’s still there. God understands proper sexual desire and simply commands that we develop His character to control and channel it. He knows our human need to love and be loved, to touch and feel, to give of ourselves totally in a reciprocal relationship. However, God requires that we find such fulfillment within the safe and secure boundaries of marriage, lest we careen out of control with unwanted children, abortion, devastating disease, scarred minds and abused bodies (Heb. 13:4). But it can be traumatic if you’re NOT straight and marriage isn’t an option! It’s heartbreaking and gut-wrenching, initially, to realize God might want you to remain single, without a significant other ( 1 Cor. 7:24; Matt. 11:6). Although just being straight doesn’t guarantee you’ll ever marry, there’s always that hope. Everything must be kept in Biblical focus or you’ll lose your mind and salvation! God PURPOSELY calls some who aren’t attached (1 Cor. 12:18). Why? It’s easier for them to be wedded to God’s Work and married to Christ’s Mission (1 Cor. 7:32,35; Matt. 19:12).

Therefore, if someone can see through the smokescreen of exploited emotions and desires, and decides to love and obey Christ through it all – rejecting sin’s advances and turning down its many propositions – God will highly honor and respect their efforts. He promises to love and comfort them, and graciously grant them an even greater strength and peace of mind (John 14:15-16, 27).

Dare to be different. Don’t just follow the crowd – especially when they don’t even know where they’re going! The sooner you recognize the seriousness of sin, and act accordingly, the better (Ecc. 12:1). Youth is transient and one-night stands are vain. Wake up and smell the coffee!

Sin must become unthinkable (Jas. 1:14-15)! We can’t afford to entertain any thoughts that would drag us both down and under, sweeping us away again (Mat. 5:28). We shouldn’t risk going past the point of rescue. We should’ve learned our lesson by now and feel enough is enough! Haven’t we graduated from the school of hard knocks? Therefore, we’re sufficiently educated to reject the trial and error approach (1 Pet. 4:3). We know which “school of thought” is worthwhile and offers any sort of a future.

Understanding that we’re living on borrowed time, that we’ve been given a new lease on life, and that we had been on death row (and yet received an unbelievable pardon from our Governor) – we must let go of the past and its corrosive influence (Philip. 3:13). We’re to be dead to our old way of life and thinking (Ps. 146:4), and accept the resurrection that is in Christ (Rom. 6).

We’re no longer to imbibe of alcohol excessively, but instead be embued with God’s Holy Spirit (Ephes. 5:18). Our new moderation is intended to magnify God’s glory, revealing His influence in our lives (Philip. 4:5). And we’re not to be surprised when our old friends and former acquaintances express shock or challenge our change (1 Pet. 4:4). It doesn’t compute with their old way of thinking. They’re relying on out-dated information and really don’t know the new you!

Knowing how grave and deceitful sin can be (Heb. 3:13), we’re not to offer it any occasion to oppress us (Ephes. 4:27), nor ever attempt to compromise or participate in the charade of a “peaceful coexistence” (Deut. 7:2). Therefore, aware of the inherent dangers, we’re to avoid those people, places or things that would throw fuel on our fire (Prov. 1:10; 4:14-15; 2 Tim. 2:22). Don’t set yourself up for a fall, or be fooled by selfish flattery (Prov. 7:21), or seduced by lying eyes (Prov. 6:25). In short, beware the “devil in blue jeans!”

God can break the grip and release us from whatever hold vice might have on us (Isa. 45:2; Ps. 107:16). We don’t have to remain creatures of habit. We can become God’s Sons and Daughters. There is a Way out: God has provided us with a marvelous Door of opportunity – but we must walk through it (John 10:9). Instead of suffering paralysis (like prisoners of the past), let’s look forward and go ahead, confident of our bright future (Mat. 13:43; Philip. 1:6).

Truth Will Not Be Buried

The Bible story is about God. The Bible given message has many individuals at odds about its perceived statements. The truth is the account of God has one fact to its story reality. The revelation the Bible illustrates in its story fact should not come to odds. This Bible story message is stated to be without confusion. The believer has to trust the fact in the Bible story account. The Bible truth have to conform to the existence of our know state. The reader can not define their own design to the Bible story fact. The Bible reality is cut to its path and will not alter from the established course.

The reader has no choice of path in the Bible message. Ones choice outside the Bible account has found a what, who or why about the fact. The Bible story is detailed by the reader questioning ponders of its facts. The individual outside the Bible story account search for God righteousness by truth and spirit is in doubt. This doubt through such views outside the Bible account has led one into a path of corrupt perceptions of the story reality. This corrupts the purity contained in the Bible account and the individual guidance in its truth. The story states God created the existence we know. In the act of this creation came the essence of our life and its existence. Each Bible message outside its fact opens view to the individual acceptance of the account. The Bible account truth and spirit is the story cut path. This reality will come from a beginning to the fulfillment and its conclusion.

The Bible story teller understood why the heaven and the earth were made. The Bible story relating the fact God dwelt in a heaven. The Bible story state God made worlds for his children. God formed the worlds for angel and adam. The earth is the second of the two worlds coming to the state of one in God heaven. God called these worlds heaven. God children are made in the image and likeness of Himself. The concept the Bible states is the thought of family. The view transformed about the Bible by the individual lacks the salt of the story account reality. The story outside the Bible fact aids the sad lows of its listeners. In these odd views is a tale of the Bible. The individual knowing the Bible story fact has the conclusion of the story account.

The truth to be known is the Bible story states God word will not go void. The Bible account statements of God word will out last those of human/adam views of the story. For instance, one can find the beginning in the Bible story of the title for the man. God created the man and woman and called them “adam”. So with this truth go all the acclaimed honors given unto oneself by human/adam. The Christian, Muslim, God I’m your pal club and so forth come to its end. God is not a respect of person. God, as Our Father, discipline and reward the deeds of His children. The reader perception outside of the Bible story cast a hoax on the state of this world. The Bible conclusion, after the lake of fire, is the fact of adam on the state of the earth. The Bible story states the beginning of a new heaven and the earth with its adam of the spirit.

The Bible fact under this hoax is hidden from the populist thought by adam. The deceptive words of man such as “human” are favored over the Bible story statement by God of “adam”. The Bible story states the host of adam walked not in the ways of the light/awareness of God. The host of adam walked in the ways of the darkness/doubt. Odd views of the Bible account state the story as a lie. The truth is God did not state you are these proclaimed numerous nations. God did not state you are aliens outside His heaven. The text states you are a child of God. You are not “human” as the voice of the world state. You are “adam” as the Bible states.

May we all grow in the wisdom and prosperity of God will,

To accommodate this growth their in-house supplier, JELD-WEN Engineering (JWE) needed to replace an outdated, cumbersome system. Located in Klamath Falls, Oregon, JWE provides plant setup, relocation services, and is the fabrication shop for the equipment used in JELD-WEN plants worldwide.

JWE has licensed a 25-user Encompix system to accommodate the expected increase demand for the Engineering group’s services. JWE believes that Encompix integrated software will enable collaboration between departments, and eventually reduce errors and shorten project lead times. According to Chuck Stewart, Executive Vice President with Encompix, “Our ERP system will also provide easier access to information, leading to improved planning and better customer support.”

According to Thomas R. Cutler, spokesperson for the ETO Institute (www.etoinstitute.org), “Encompix continues to capture significant marketshare in the ETO environment because few other ERP vendors truly understand the nuances and significant distinctions of the ETO process versus the repetitive manufacturing process. Encompix now has more than 200 of the leading ETO manufacturing firms in North America using their ERP Software solution.”

Encompix (www.encompix.com) has filled the manufacturing software requirements of Engineer-to-Order companies since 1992.

Encompix provides ETO manufacturers with a competitive advantage by improving bottom line results.
