DEE’S CEREAL

Presented by Dee Jardine

Founder of Dee’s Cereal

Overweight and suffering from diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, failing eyesight and numb hands and feed, Dee Jardine got a sobering message from his doctor when he informed Dee that because of his severe diabetes, he needed to begin insulin injections immediately. Eight year sand over 6000 shots later, his body had been consumed b diabetes and he was not expected to live. His moment of truth had arrived. If he were to live, a change of lifestyle was necessary and the change had to be then.

He then chose to live.

To loose weight, he started walking. At first it was difficult, but now he walks several miles a day, five days a week. He also experimented with various breakfast combinations, but found it left him forever hungry. Until he developed Dee’s Cereal, a cereal that keeps you going throughout the morning. Try it and feel the difference.

Today’s segment introduces three of the important components of Dee’s Cereal: corn, cranberries and organic wheat.

Corn: If you have insulin resistance, hypoglycemia, or diabetes? Corn may help. Yellow corn balances blood sugar and provides the steady, slow-burning energy your body was meant to process. This complex carb is packed with folate, niacin and magnesium, all of which contributes to cardiovascular health. Corn’s high fiber content benefits your heart and digestive tract.

Cranberries: Cranberries are famous for the protection they offer against urinary tract and kidney infection. A few lesser known, but equally impressive characteristics are 1) cranberries have strong anti-adhesion properties that help inhibit the bacteria associated with gum disease and stomach ulcers. 2) Cranberries have the highest levels of antioxidants among common fruits and have the strongest ability to inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, especially those in the liver (several newly discovered compounds in cranberries are shown to be toxic to a variety of cancer tumor cell lines, including lung, cervical, prostate, breast and leukemia cells). 3) Cranberries possess more phenols than red grapes and 18 other fruits (phenols are plant chemicals that protect against hardening of the arteries, thus lowered LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels).

Whole Wheat: This familiar friend, whole wheat (not the nutrient-void white stuff), packs a large amount of protein, fiber, manganese, magnesium, B3, B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 and iron. Known for its anti-cancer powers, wheat remains one of the most popular and potent grains available.
