What About Salt?

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

            I hope that you’re enjoying the heat, we had plenty of it this weekend. This ties into our health shop topic for Monday evening on the Importance of Sea Salt. I have a lot of fun with patients when I talk to them about salt because they invariably argue with me that they’ve been told for decades not to eat salt because of blood pressure issues. Well the truth is that this may be somewhat true for processed and refined white salt but we need mineral salt or sea salt for good health, good kidney functions, and the ability to sweat and control our body temperature. Good quality sea salt or mineral salt also helps with your body’s pH and this keeps the bugs under control as well. Unfortunately, the medics make no distinction between processed salt and sea salt and do not look at the positive effects, only the negative and fearful aspects. At Natural Health, we try to give our patients the truth about foods and look at the best ways to keep them healthy.

            The article that I’m sending along today looks at the failure of a viral drug to work and at the major side effects it causes. I know that I have talked about it a lot in the past but when are people going to learn that drugs don’t heal anything, the only force the body’s reaction in this is always going to cause side effects? Plus you’re still not getting at the underlying cause of the problem, even if a symptom is better. And the expense of this drug is incredible. The article is interesting too in that it shows the back door political and monetary connections that go on all the time in this big Pharma world we live in. At Natural Health, we are trying as much is possible to educate patients and others about the need to keep their immune system strengthened and then they don’t have to worry about the bugs. There are so many good ways to strengthen the immune system and help your body to be healthy but this doesn’t make Big Pharma any money so you don’t see it on mainstream media. We will keep trying to get this information out to more and more people and would appreciate your help in doing so. With this virus business going on, it has become a matter of life or death, of hope or fear.

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...
