Brain Health

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

            Another great weekend! It was sure nice to have some cooler temperatures and a little rain in there. It’s keeping everything so green, even the yards and grasses. In many years, it’s dryer during July and the heat turns things brown but this year it sure is staying green and luscious. I hope that you were able to get outside and work on your vitamin D activation. Don’t forget about using coconut oil on suntan areas and eating salt to keep yourself hydrated.

            Our topic for August is Brain Health and is important as the kids, hopefully, get back to school and for the adults to get back to work from vacations and such. I’m including an article that talks about correcting metabolism to help with immune system strengthening and this goes for all systems in the body, even brain health and proper function. Let’s face it, if you’re tired all the time you have a greater tendency to be depressed. If you’re not thinking well and become anxious because you can’t figure things out or things seem overwhelming, you have a higher tendency to have anxiety and fears. Getting the body to work correctly keeps the energy coming so that we can think correctly and be happier with where and who we are.

            In our Health Shop this week you’re talking about our ability to learn and use science as a logical way to see how things work and make decisions. One example of how this works is the gastrointestinal and psychological syndrome information that we talk about with our patients. Big words I know, but they mean if your gut is not working correctly your brain won’t either. This translates into what you eat can determine your energy levels and even your mood. An example of this is kids eating processed carbs and junk cereal in the morning and then they can’t sit still and learn anything at school. And adults are the same way where if they eat carbs and sugars in the morning, about 10 o’clock their blood sugar has bottomed out and they feel terrible and can’t concentrate, which makes the workday drag.

            At Natural Health, we help our patients to learn how to keep this from happening and have vibrant and energetic true health. We are here to help you and yours have a great life and really enjoy it.

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...
