Coronavirus Statistics & Pre-exisitng Conditions



            I hope that you had a great and Blessed Easter, and was able to get into the mood of the day. It sure was strange not being able to go to church, especially on Easter Sunday. Again we’re seeing signs that this will be over soon but we all need to look at our health status and keep this from happening again. Mainstream medicine is doing their thing right now and helping people to make it through their illness, which is great, but just treating people over and over with medications is not helping people get healthy and vibrant.

            I’ve included an article today that reports 99% of the Italian fatality’s had pre-existing diabetes or heart disease. I think we will find that the statistics from other countries will show a similar trend. We all knew that people with lowered immunity would be the ones hardest hit. It’s time for us to get away from this mainstream medical paradigm of treating disease with drugs or surgery and look at a new paradigm of getting people actually healthy and not needing to be on these drugs or need surgery. Don’t get me wrong, there will always be a need for medical care, especially in emergencies, but we are treating everyone as an emergency even though it’s a chronic problem and folks are not getting well. There is so much information out there on vitamins and minerals and good diets and how they help people to stay healthy. There also needs to be more education on why eating refined sugar and junk food is so bad for the body and its immune system. We’ve went from the local grocery stores of yesterday that had good foods and its own butcher shop, to the convenience stores of today that are loaded with junk food. And people eat out too much, it will be interesting to see what stats change with all this as people have not been able to eat in restaurants. Of course the fast food drive-throughs are still open.

            I hope you’re getting the point here that everyone needs to look at being healthy and there are ways of doing that rather than waiting for them to catch a disease or a bug and then treating it. This pandemic should have woken a lot of people up to this fact. We are here at Natural Health with the correct technology and the experience to help patients do just that.

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...
