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.

Enjoy The Show

  Hi Natural Health Family! Imagine everyone enjoyed their weekend with some great weather. Did you have a win from last week? Could be something small or a big accomplishment. Whatever it was, I hope it brought you joy in some way. Sometimes life can seem strugglesome, difficult, and overwhelming. We have the ability to reframe the way we see life. Let’s talk about our ability to respond to the way we see the world around us.  Have you ever been watching a tv show or movie and thought “wow there really isn’t anything going on in the show, there are no ups and downs, no twists and turns, it just seems so bland and boring.” Maybe you have thought of that but I would guess that you probably didn’t. The movie with the director, producer, and actors is meant to grab your attention. The director wanted to captivate the audience, of course to sell more movies, but also for the people watching to get lost in the experience of watching the movie. If the movie is really good we almost forget we

A Blessing

  Hi Natural Health Family. We got some rain this weekend! It was definitely refreshing and great to see something different. I am sure many of the farmers were happy to see that along with anyone that has grass. Time to mow again haha. Just like waiting for the rain we can be more patient in other aspects of our life.  Have you ever had something happen that you thought was bad or perhaps a mistake by yourself or someone else? However, after perhaps days, weeks, months you look back and realize if that didn’t happen then you would have never realized something that helped you down the road, a blessing in disguise. Many times people get caught up in thinking that this event that happened was so bad or that it should have never happened. When we are quick to judge something then we may keep ourselves from seeing something more clearly. Of course it is okay when we get frustrated from time to time, but then we can redirect ourselves to see whatever happened in a different way we can le
