2. What is a Chakra?
     In the body there is an energy system some what like your central neurvous system. These energy networks are made up of little cord like connections called a Naudi. These naudi's are connected to several specific organs and run through out in the body. They are connected with your emotions, health and everything else in your body.  
     When one naudi crosses over another naudi, it's called aChakra.
When hundreds of them cross in one place, it's called a Major Chakra. This energy at the Chakra's builds up a strong Energy Vortex  that spins in a clock wise manner when balanced.
The energy is strong enough that it can be picked up by a pendulum.

There are 7 Major Chakra's.

Crown     (7th)
Brow       (6th)
Throat      (5th)
Heart        (4th)
Solar Plexus (3rd)
Stomach    (2nd)

         bacteria.  
17.) Free radical-unstable molecules that cause irritation, breakdown of tissues and
         aging. (See Antioxidants)

18.)  Fructooligosaccharides-short chain carbohydrates.   Sugars linked together
         with unique bonds so the body can't digest them.  They pass through the
         intestines onto the large intestine where they can feed the beneficial bacteria.

19.)  Garcinia cambogia-South Asian tree.  The rind of the fruit contains (-)
          hydroxycitric acid which influences the body's production of fats from
          carbohydrates and suppresses the appetite naturally.

20.)  Glucomannan-extract of konjac root, has fat binding ability.  Attracts water and
          swells more than any other known fiber.  Is a pectin like gel fiber that helps in
          lowering cholesterol.

21.)  Guar gum-a plant mucilage (fiber) found in legumes.

22.)  Hawthorn berries-high in catechins.  These berries come from a shrub native
          toEurope.  High in catechins and flavonoids, anthocyanidans and
          proanthocyanidins (responsible for the red and blue colors in all berries).  Helps
          to improve blood flow to the heart, balances blood pressure, acts as a anti-
          inflammatory and prevents collagen destruction in joints.

23.)  HDL (high density lipoproteins)-dense protein fat molecules that circulate in
         the blood, picking up used or unused cholesterol and taking them back to the
         liver.

24.)  Indole-3-carbinol-a phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables like green
         cabbage.    It increases healthy metabolism of estrogen.

25.)  Insoluble fiber-insoluble in water, but absorbs water to increase fecal size and
         weight. Example-wheat bran.

26.)  Inulin-a carbohydrate found in Jerusalem artichokes that helps to promote
         normal blood sugar. Inulin also promotes the growth of friendly bacteria in the
         intestines.

27.)  Kelp-a seaweed used for its mineral and iodine content.  Helps to detoxify
         intestinal toxins and heavy metals.

28.)  L-methionine-an amino acid that prevents excess fat buildup in the liver and
         body.  Also works as an antioxidant.  Contains sulfur for strong hair and nails.

29.) Lactobaccillus acidophilus-friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract that play a
          role in immune function and the nutritional status of the body.  Lactobaccillus
          produce substances that inhibit the growth of negative bacteria.  Ex.-lactic and
         acetic acid.  

30.)  LDL (Low density lipoproteins)-made in the liver and carry cholesterol in the
         blood to the organs and cells.

31.)  Lipase-a fat splitting digestive enzyme.

32.)  Locust bean gum-a mucilage fiber extracted from the locust bean.

33.)  Lutein-a carotene found in tomatoes and dark green vegetables like spinach and
         kale. Concentrated in retina of the eye, helps prevent macular degeneration.

34.) Lycopene-is a carotenoid, a red pigment from tomatoes.  Is prevalent in the
         testes, prostate, and human plasma.

35.)  Metabolism-sum of all physical and chemical changes that take place in the
         body.

36.)  Papain-the protein-digesting enzyme from papaya.

37.)  Pectin-fiber found in all plant cell walls.  An apple peel is 15% pectin.  Pectin's
         gel forming qualities are responsible for lowering cholesterol.

38.)  Phytochemical-plant chemicals.

39.)  Polyphenol catechin-a phytochemical which acts in the body as an anti-
         inflammatory.

40.)  Polyphenol catechin-bioflavonoids that quench free radicals.

         bifidobacteria.

42.)  Protease-a protein splitting enzyme.

43.)  Saturated fats-commonly found in animals and are hard at room temperature.
        Lard, suet, and butter are saturated animal fats.  Coconut and palm oils are
         saturated vegetable oils.

44.)  Soluble fiber-water soluble fiber helps to lower cholesterol.  Ex.-gums, pectin,

         oat bran.

         highest vitamin B12 content of any unprocessed plant or animal food.

46.)  Stevia-an herb used as a flavor enhancer.  Also inhibits the growth of harmful

         bacteria and other infectious organisms.

         chromium nicotinate, and chromium chelate.

50.)  Unrefined oils-seed, nut, or vegetable oils that have not been processed.  Ex.-

         cold pressed oils.

51.)  Unsaturated fats -are unstable at room temperatures and sensitive to

          interactions with oxygen, light, and heat.
