Spring Allergies



            I hope you had a great weekend despite all the hubbub. At least it’s starting to warm up and look more like Spring all the time. We have gotten plenty of moisture to bring up the May flowers and the grass is greening up so will hear those lawnmowers starting again soon. We’re starting to notice some of our patients developing some Spring allergies and we have great products to help the liver detox the body so that these pollens don’t bother. This goes right along with all the other immune system strengthening that we do, helping the body to detoxify itself so that the liver can handle any foreign invaders that may show up.

            Of course all you hear on the news now is about the coronavirus so I’ve included an article from the New England Journal of medicine that shows the actual statistics and that the coronavirus may be no more of the problem than the regular flu. The mainstream media loves to hype up everything to keep you glued to the TV and help their ratings improve, plus sell more advertising. I’ve been telling all my patients not to watch the news, or very little of it. These people try to instill fear in us and fear is in emotion that is hard on the immune system. The worst thing we can do is sit in front of the tube listening to hype and being afraid eating crappy food. You’re just asking for trouble than. As weather warms up, hopefully we can get outside into the fresh air and sunshine and activate that vitamin D which is essential for immune system function. Vitamin D and vitamin A are oil soluble vitamins and their precursors come from getting good fats and oils in the diet, with the ability to digest them, which is a liver function again.

            At Natural Health, we have ways of checking the body’s functioning through our Nutrition Response Testing technique, we have ways of restoring the bodies nerve function to help coordinate the immune system with good chiropractic adjustments, and ways of helping to reduce fear and stress with emotional techniques. We all need to have our bodies working at optimum so we don’t have to worry about all the bugs out there. We have survived the plague, the Spanish flu, the swine flu, the bird flu, SARS, Ebola, etc. This is done by having a strong immune system. People are hoping for a magic pill or vaccine but they don’t work unless you have a functioning immune system.

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...
