Heart Heath and Aspirin


Well it was a fairly nice weekend and temperatures are starting to come up. We had that bad cold snap there to remind us that it’s still winter but it looks like were headed to spring. It sure is nice to see the sun and it’s getting more powerful and the days are getting longer which are good signs that spring is on the way. If you’re having any kind of health issues, now is the time to come into Natural Health and get those handled before we are wanting to go outside in the nicer weather. Folks that have taken antibiotics over the winter, or the medications for coughs and colds, which did not handle the underlying problems, and their body needs to detox. This is why people talk about their colds or flu just hanging on, they have not addressed the immune system. 
This is what we do at Natural Health, address underlying issues and get people healthy.
           
Our February theme is on heart health and we will be talking more about that tonight on our health shop at 6 o’clock. It will be on Facebook and Instagram and then on YouTube and Brighteon.com later. Always lots of good information. I’ve included an article today about heart health and why taking aspirin is not really a good idea. Aspirin is not a nutrition or a food, it is a drug even though it is over-the-counter. Medics tell patients to take aspirin to avoid heart attacks but there are so many better ways then destroying your blood cells. Aspirin thins the blood by destroying blood cells and lends towards a vitamin C complex deficiency. You can also cause the digestive system to bleed as you’ll see in the article. Most people just do better by making sure they drink plenty of water or like the article describes, being a blood donor. I just think that taking an aspirin a day, or any other medication for that matter, does not help the patient become more healthy and actually makes for other conditions and their health generally worse. We’re getting reports from patients that some medics are taking their patients off aspirin, but others aren’t, which we doesn’t make any sense.
            At Natural Health, were work towards getting a patient to their best. We want true health for them and vibrant energy, not just handling one aspect or condition, but looking at the body as a whole.

Most People Don't Reach Micronutrient Requirements Through Food Alone

  STORY AT-A-GLANCE Most adolescents are not getting adequate nutrient intake from diet alone — a finding confirmed from other studies in developed countries such as Spain, France, Portugal and Germany Three-quarters of adolescents consumed less than 54% of the recommended amounts of healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and dairy products Nearly three-quarters of the youth exceeded the recommended limit for sweet and salty snacks — by 453% When nutrient intake was considered from diet alone, adolescents often consumed less than recommended amounts of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E along with the water-soluble vitamins folate, biotin and pantothenic acid The use of dietary supplements helped to increase the adolescents’ intake of vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium and vitamin C, but this isn’t a replacement for a healthy, nutrient-rich diet While it’s possible to get all the vitamins and minerals your body needs by eating a healthy diet, most people fall short.

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...

Communication

  Natural Health Family, how is everyone doing? I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend and got some sunshine. Today let’s talk about communication and why it is important in our lives and for our own health.  Last weekend I explored Colorado. I went snowboarding and hiked a good amount also. I learned a lot just by getting out in nature and noticing different aspects of the forest and parks. One characteristic of the forest that I found interesting was the aspen trees. It appeared that they would appear sporadically in the forest and in groups. I was curious and wanted to learn more about them. I found out that the different aspen trees or tree trunks are not separate but they actually function as one tree. The roots of the tree are well connected so that they are able to communicate and act as one organism. I found this interesting because we tend to think that the whole tree is only about what is on the surface of the ground rather than all the roots and connections...
