Anxiety -- Depression and Natural Health


Anxiety, Depression and Natural Health
           
            Anxiety and Depression are basically two sides of the same coin. Both are usually a deficiency of B vitamins which can be brought on by a long history of eating processed or refined sugar. Standard Process divides their B complex nutrition into two parts, Cataplex B for support of the Sympathetic nervous system which helps the body have energy and stamina, and Cataplex G for the Parasympathetic nervous system which helps the body to calm down and relax.
People with anxiety have a hard time relaxing, and over time, their systems break down from lack of healing due to inability of their body to slow down enough to heal. Sleep is when the body does this and it is so important to get a good amount and the right quality. Doctors have patients taking sleeping pills or using a CPAP machine which again is working on symptoms and not the solution. The body also needs the right building blocks, good food or supplements, to be able to rebuild itself during this sleep cycle.
People with depression have no energy to get up and go and be able to interact with society and then pull back from loved ones and this is also hard on the physical systems as well as the mental. The medications work on symptoms but not on any underlying cause. You can imagine if you’re eating the same non-nourishing foods everyday how the problem would hang around and usually get worse. Another big factor here too is if the digestive system is not working well enough to even absorb the nutrients in the diet. Even with bad digestion you can absorb simple sugars and drugs, but not the foods that are good for you and need to be broken down to be absorbed.
Manic depressive folks are a little of both, times of anxiety and time of depression. Same causes at work here. And even if the drugs work on the symptoms, they bring along lots of side effects. Let’s just skip these.

Good Food, Digestion and Absorption

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-                 I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and were actually grateful for all the food that we ate. There is a lot of good foods in the Thanksgiving meal, but also some that probably weren’t the best for us. We will just have to get back on the good eating bandwagon so that we stay healthy through the rest of these holidays coming up. I try to remind people to stay hydrated because it’s easy to forget to drink water and get your electrolytes. Staying hydrated just helps so many systems of the body and helps the pH to stay correct, which helps keep the bugs, which are in us and on us at all times, under control.                 We had a great Black Friday Open House/Patient Appreciation Day and were very thankful for the folks that came out and enjoyed some food and drink, an...

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...

  Hello everyone and natural health Nation -      Well we finally got some rain and now I’m beginning to wonder if we could turn it back off. It seems we're never happy - ha. I was surprised to see that the ground had dried out that much in a fairly short amount of time but with the rain we had this weekend, everything should be good for quite a while. I was happy to see the grass and everything green back up and the corn and beans are just growing like mad. We were working out in the rain on Saturday to finish some jobs and it was nice that it was warm. I'm sure we'll get lots of sunshine as the summer progresses and probably need more rain at some point too.      The article I'm sending along today looks at what happens to the human body when you eat processed foods. This is a problem during the summer when everyone gets into vacation mode and doesn't eat nearly as well as they did in the Spring. It's one of our problems in o...
