]]> Gift ideas for your Mama on Mother’s Day. Motherhood is a life changing role that can determine the direction of a child’s life. From conception to breastfeeding, the mother’s role in our life is one of the first and most important connections to our world. Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to celebrate with your Mama, if you are able to. If you are celebrating Mother’s Day this year, here we have a few gift ideas.

1. CEDAR CANDIES & CHOCOLATE BARS

Ringing Cedars. Maigret

We guarantee that such sweets will certainly leave a pleasant impression, because the combination of chocolate and cedar nuts are rare. The big advantage of our sweets is that they do not contain unhealthy white sugar, and the chocolate used in their production is dark Belgian. A classic gift option is chocolate with cedar cake . But there is also chocolate with additives: with pepper, with flax seeds, with lingonberries or cranberries. For lovers of non-standard taste sensations, we recommend cedar marzipan or cedar bonbons. Delicate marzipan candies are made from almond flour with the addition of ground cedar cake. In addition to the classic version, there is marzipan with pumpkin, carrots or blackberries. Soft cedar bonbons are presented in several versions: with the addition of cashews or almonds along with taiga berries. If it’s difficult to decide, choose ASSORTED cedar bon bons “MEGRE” or ASSORTED cedar marzipan “MEGRE” : there will be two pieces of each type of candy in compact, beautiful packages.

 

2. CEDAR OIL WITH MUMIYO & ELIXIR
ELIXIR MEGRE+ MUMIYO 100ml

The elixir will solve many women’s problems that may cause concern. The Elixir is based on cedar oil, which, when taken, significantly improves the condition of the skin, hair and nails. Mumiyo, the extract of which is added to the Elixir, has long been famous for its rejuvenating effect and benefits for reproductive health. Taking the Elixir with mumiyo generally promotes antibacterial, antiviral and anti-stress effects. You can take it in courses or regularly for general strengthening of the body.

3. SECOND PRESS CEDAR OIL

Double pressed cedar oil, 100 ml

Uses for cedar oil make up a long list – but the benefits of second press cedar oil are less well known. For a mother, it is important to use natural cosmetics that do not cover her in harmful chemicals. This is where second press cedar oil has its time to shine.

It is perfect as a care product for both the face and body. You can safely apply pure, undiluted oil even to the skin around the eyes – it does not cause allergies. Cedar oil is quickly  & perfectly absorbed. Thanks to the high concentration of vitamin E and unsaturated fatty acids, the oil nourishes the skin, makes it firmer and more elastic, maintains tone, and relieves dryness and irritation. It can also be used as a hair mask. In this case, it can be applied either pure to the hair roots, or mixed with an existing product (shampoo or balm). With constant use, the hair becomes stronger, a healthy shine and silkiness appears, and the problem of hair loss ceases to bother you.

Many people have shared their additional uses for this oil – such as it helps with stretch marks during pregnancy or strengthens gums after teeth brushing . There are many ideas, but they are united by excellent efficiency – it is like a one stop shop that is the perfect gift for a busy mother who would like to keep their lifestyle closer to nature.

What is Mountain Mumiyo?

What is Mountain Mumiyo –  it is a natural mountain wax that is black-brown in colour and tar-like and resinous in consistency. It is found in several mountainous areas worldwide such as the Altai, Himalayan and Tibetan mountains.

Ancient Medicine

There are many ancient manuscripts that share information on the variety of uses and applications attributed to Mumiyo. It is commonly used in both traditional and folk medicines for healing ailments such as stomach ulcers and bone fractures.

The word ‘Mumiyo’ can be translated into meaning “saving the body”, with origins in the Greek language. It is said that ancient physic

ians made use of this resinous wax to heal a variety of different diseases and improve the vitality of the body.

Mumiyo has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries and is also known as ‘Shilajit’. When used in Ayurveda it was traditionally sourced from India and Tibet.

How it is made

Mountain Mumiyo is formed from a build up of minerals and plant debris that have been breaking down over long periods of time (often centuries). Over time these substances form a tar-like, resinous wax that exudes from rock areas in higher up mountainous areas. The wax is often wild harvested by being scraped off of rocks, caves and crevices. It is then processed into products that are a very powerful addition to anyone’s health routine.

Health benefits of Mumiyo

Mumiyo has been used successfully in the prevention and treatment of certain infectious diseases as well as displaying immunostimulant and anti-allergy properties. Experiments in vitro have shown that extract of Mumiyo has distinct neuroprotective activity.

Here are a few additional benefits that can potentially be derived from the use of Mumiyo:

  • Anemia – Mumiyo contains high levels of humic acid and iron, which may assist in the treatment of an iron deficiency.
  • Anti-aging – High in fulvic acid which has anti inflammatory and antioxidant properties which are associated with preventing cell damage and reducing free radicals within the body.
  • Antiviral – a wide range of compounds and minerals in Mumiyo may assist in fighting and killing off a variety of viruses.
  • Chronic fatigue – may assist in reducing fatigue and naturally increase the energy levels of the body.
  • Hormonal issues – may assist in hormonal issues associated with the menstrual cycle and skin problems.

Using Mountain Mumiyo

Mumiyo can be used as a supplement that comes in powder form, it can be dissolved into a liquid and it can also be consumed in cedar nut oil to enhance both substances healing properties.

Where does ours come from?

The mumiyo that is used in our Megre Elixir for Women is sourced from the Altai Mountains. This is an incredibly ecologically pure area and the natural resources that are harvested in this area are known for being particularly pure.

The post Vedruss Cleanse: A Guide appeared first on MegreLLC.

]]> No matter what time of year it is – our bodies always thank us when we take care of them. This process adapted from Vedruss practices allows the body to relearn its natural intuition.

Vedruss Cleanse

“People in the Vedic Russian civilisation all lived for more than a hundred years. And their flesh knew no illness whatsoever. They ate according to God’s prescription. Not to no end, and not for no reason, the Creator took the greatest care in designing the grasses, vegetables, berries and fruits so that they wouldn’t all ripen at once, but rather, one after the other in a strict sequence.

“Some would ripen in early spring, others in the summer or in late autumn. The time of their ripening was determined by the moment at which each given produce could bring the greatest benefit to man. A person who lived on his family homestead and ate in accordance with God’s prescription could not fall ill. God determined for man the type of food he would eat and when he would eat it. Then the person himself would determine the amount of food he’d eat, but not with his mind – he’d eat as much as he wanted to eat. And his organism would precisely determine the necessary quantity of food, down to the gram.

“In the autumn, each family would lay up provisions of berries, root vegetables, herbs, nuts and mushrooms. In the winter there would be a platter on the table in each hut. On the platter would be small mounds of these summer provisions. Each family member was busy with his own tasks, but whenever he felt hungry or thirsty, he’d go up to the table and without thinking about it, he’d take the food he needed. Take note, Vladimir: he’d take it without thinking about it. His organism knew precisely which food he needed and how much of it. God granted each person this capability. We can revive this capability now. All we need in order to do this is information.

“I’ve adapted the Vedic Russian way of eating for today’s people. You can try it and others can, too. It is as follows.” 

How to perform a Vedruss cleanse in modern living

“A person living in a modern apartment needs to obtain a small quantity – one to two hundred grams each – of all the vegetables, fruits and edible grasses that grow in the area where he lives.

“Before consuming these products, he should eat nothing at all for an entire day. He should drink spring water, and at lunchtime he should drink a glass of red beet juice. After drinking the beet juice, it’s desirable for him not to leave the house. An intensive cleansing of the stomach and bowels will begin.

“The next morning, when the person wakes up and senses a feeling of hunger, he needs to take any vegetable, any fruit or herb he wants, place it on a plate, take a seat at the table and intently study the product lying on the plate, then sniff it, lick it, and eat it, chewing without hurrying. During this time, it’s desirable for him to be alone in the room and separate himself from sounds of the man-made world.

“The feeling of hunger will not disappear when he consumes one product, or it will arise once more after a brief period of time. And then he needs to pick up any other product he wants and eat it the same way he ate the first one. The person should try all of the products he’s acquired, in any order he wishes, but with short intervals in between. The feeling of hunger will determine when to consume each subsequent food. It’s essential to begin consuming the foods first thing in the morning.

“In the course of a day, the person will have a chance to try all the foods that grow in the area where he lives. If the person ends up having a great variety of foods and one day won’t suffice, then he should continue to feed himself this same way the next day as well. This procedure is very important. It will give many people’s organisms – perhaps for the first time in their lives – the chance to become acquainted with the taste and properties of each food, and to determine to what extent and in what quantity the person needs it at that moment. 

“Once the organism has had a chance to acquaint itself with all the foods, the person needs to take a big plate, cut up each vegetable into small slices and lay them out on the plate. He should also put out small bunches of greens and berries, either on this plate or a different one. If there’s a plate with perishable items, pour in enough spring water to cover them.

“It’s also essential to put honey, flower pollen, cedar oil and spring water on the table. A person can go about his business. And when he senses a feeling of hunger, he can go up to the table and, with his hand or a wooden spoon, pick up the food he likes and eat it.

“You might end up eating up absolutely all of some of the foods, while leaving others untouched. This indicates that your organism – your very wise personal doctor, the dietician that the Creator assigned to you – has selected what you most need at the given moment, leaving what you don’t need untouched for the time being. 

“The next day you don’t need to bother putting the foods you haven’t eaten on the table. But three days later, the full assortment of foods should appear on the table once more. It’s possible that now your organism will need something different.

“The person will gradually be able to tell which foods he can omit from his rations for the time being, so as to not needlessly spend time acquiring them. But after some time passes, the organism might need them, too, so that’s why you need to put the full available assortment out on the table from time to time.

“I know that a person living in your world often has to leave his dwelling place, but it’s possible to make some adjustments when this happens. For example, you can acquire or make a little birch bark box and put a portion of the food from the table into it. Your organism itself will select what it needs.

“If you have to go away somewhere for a long time, then you’ll have to begin acquainting your organism in the same way with the produce from the new territory, since even though they may have the same names, they may differ from each other in taste. 

“You need to understand the most important point about this way of eating, Vladimir. It isn’t just all the wild animals that have been given the capability to determine which products are most beneficial for their organism and in what quantities, and at what moment they need them. Such knowledge also exists within each person.

“Our son was correct in his thinking: so that he could concoct a curative infusion for you from the taiga herbs, he began tracking a sable. But if you yourself knew the taste of each blade of grass, then your organism would be able to select the necessary herbs a bit more accurately than a sable. When you return to your apartment, allow your organism to come to know the taste of the foods it’s easy for you to obtain. Don’t mix them together and don’t salt them. Otherwise your organism won’t be able to determine the virtue and importance of each food.” 

What you will need:

  • Spring Water
  • Red Beets (enough to make a glass of beet juice)
  • 100-200 grams of local seasonal fruit, edible grasses, herbs and vegetables (100-200 grams of each)
  • Flower pollen (if available)
  • Raw Honey
  • Cedar Oil (preferably handmade)
  • Wooden Spoon

Nutrition tips for natural sweeteners. Many of us have a taste for sweet and sugary foods, it’s a very common thing amongst modern people, however many sweet treats have ingredients that are not always beneficial to ones health.

As our society has become more health conscious, we have come up with amazing healthy and natural alternatives to processed sugars. Often these alternatives were used in ancient times when cane sugar was not readily available to everyone.

Grape Syrup Sugar

Natural grape sugar, unlike disaccharides (beet and cane sugar sucrose, etc.), consists of dextrose monosaccharide – therefore, it does not cause fermentation processes and is absorbed more efficiently by the body.

By maintaining the level of glucose in the blood, grape sugar ensures the functioning of the cells of the central nervous system and the stability of the cells of the body as a whole.

Unlike honey and other natural sugar substitutes, liquid grape sugar has a neutral taste and is completely raw and hypoallergenic – it can be added to any dish while maintaining its original taste. Due to its liquid consistency, it is convenient to use it in cold dishes.

Raw Honey

A healthy delicacy and the best medicine. Raw honey is perhaps one of the most ancient inventions of nature, which is still used in its original form. Even children know about its value. Honey contains more than 300 trace elements, the entire known vitamin complex and many valuable acids that are involved in metabolism.

It also contains a powerhouse of phytonutrients, has antibacterial and anti fungal properties, and is a good source of antioxidants, making it a perfect a

What are the most important factors that ensure good quality honey? Of course, its environmental friendliness and compliance with all the natural methods of honey making.

Chicory Syrup

Chicory syrup is a natural sweetener that has recently become more popular. It is low GI and has a high fibre content, as well as being a good source of nutrition.

The syrup has a unique flavour that is a wonderful addition to sweeten desserts, pancakes, yogurt, drinks and cakes. A unique aspect of this syrup is that it is in part able to replace fat in cooking, which means that when baking with it, you don’t only reduce your sugar intake but also your fat intake too.

Jerusalem Artichoke Syrup

Jerusalem artichoke also known as topinambur is a plant in the sunflower family that is used to make a natural sugar substitute. This syrup can withstand higher temperatures than its similar natural sweetener honey, which means it can be used in cooking and hot drinks without losing its nutritional value. It contains a variety of vitamins, minerals and amino acids that are essential to the body such as potassium, zinc, magnesium, vitamins A, C and E, lysine, threonine and methionine.

The syrup is a natural prebiotic that restores healthy intestinal microflora, promotes the growth of beneficial microorganisms and thereby increasing the immunity of the body.  

Date Syrup

Date syrup is an ancient sweetener that has been traced as far back as Mesopotamia and is often referred to as ‘date honey’. Although this natural sweetener has been around for thousands of years, it is a more recent tread in a lot of health communities around the world.

It is made with just two ingredients – dates and water, which are blended together and then filtered. Date syrup has the same health benefits that dates do, making it a healthy natural sweetener. It is free of cholesterol, sodium, saturated and trans fats and high in minerals that are beneficial to the heart such as magnesium and potassium.

Cedar Syrup

The syrups include water extracts of the spring cedar green (cedar “paws”), which is composed of polysaccharides and flavonoids. Polysaccharides serve as a building material for strengthening blood vessels, renewal, and formation of the walls of cell membranes of all tissues (including nervous) in the human body.

According to scientists from Yekaterinberg, Cedar syrup increases the human body’s resistance to bacterial and viral infections, strengthens the immune system and stabilises the nervous system. Cinnamon is known for its anti inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, allspice for its anti inflammatory, antioxidant and antiviral properties, and lastly, cloves for their anti inflammatory and anti bacterial properties. In other words – a healing power house of ingredients for the change of season.

Nutrition tips: Natural Sweets

Have you tried some of our sweet treats that contain natural sweeteners?

Natural sweets are much better than processed sugars – it is a way for us to enjoy sweet treats without as many negative side effects. However, it is important to note that even high amounts of healthy sweets is not good for the body. It is always important to maintain a balanced diet.

The post Health Benefits of Pinolenic Acid appeared first on MegreLLC.

]]> Pinolenic Acid has an array of potential health benefits that make it a sought after compound for those focusing on health supplements. It is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that is found in Siberian pine nuts, Korean pine nuts and the nuts from other trees in the Pinus species. It has been found that Siberian pine nuts (also known as Siberian cedar nuts) and the oil that is made from Siberian pine nuts, contains the highest amount of pinolenic acid amongst all nuts of the Pinus species – often containing over 20% pinolenic acid.

Pinolenic acid in (cedar) pine nut oil

Pine nut oil has been used by native Siberians for many centuries to control appetite, treat digestive issues and boost their overall health.

During harsh Siberian winters when food was scarce, Siberian pine nuts and the oil made from them served as an invaluable source of vitamins and minerals, as well as assisting in suppressing appetite and achieving a feeling of fullness.

Health benefits of Pinolenic acid

In recent years there have been many studies done on the health benefits of pine nut oil – and the compound present in it, pinolenic acid.

Research has revealed what the Siberian people have known intuitively for many years – how powerful this compound is and the healing nuts and oil that it is found in. Here are some of the discoveries that have been made about pinolenic acid:

  • may assist in lowering LDL cholesterol in the blood – studies have brought to light that the pinolenic acid causes the liver to absorb more LDL from the blood and therefore reduces LDL levels in the bloodstream.
  • may have immune modulating functions that help maintain a healthy immune system
  • may have anti inflammatory properties that help to reduce inflammation throughout the body
  • may have appetite suppressing qualities that assist in maintaining healthy body weight
