Adrenals

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation -

     It's still hard for me to believe that we have gotten through all the holidays and we're into another year. So far the winter has been mild but it's still winter. This is the time of year where people get more colds and flu symptoms and they really need to watch their vitamin D level. We have a great product called Cataplex D .It is a food source of vitamin D so that you're getting the whole vitamin complex, not just synthetic vitamin D3. We also use a lot of cod liver oil which is a good oil source that is easily digestible for most people. We test  these products on the patients to see which one works the best for them. Everyone's body is so different  and has particular needs.  This is why we check our products on the body to make sure it works right for them, not only for a good response, but to be efficient and economical. 


     This month we are focusing on the energy of the body and the topic for this week's Healthshop is on the Thyroid and Adrenal Glands. The article that I have  included looks at the correct types of oils in the diet and these are very important for not only nutrient sources but also as building blocks for  hormones. The processed seed oils were first manufactured for machinery but we're then used in grocery stores because they had a long shelf life. Natural oils, once processed, go rancid very quickly so the manufacturers and store owners thought that refined seed oils, that lasted on the shelves longer, were a good substitute. This is not the case though as the country's Health has declined since the introduction of these “ Foods" .Almost all fried foods that you find in restaurants are fried in  these bad oils.

   

  When I first started in this practice, 38 years ago, we learned a lot about how refined sugars were at the root cause of most health problems. This is still true but we have found that these processed oils are just as bad, if not worse, as the refined sugars. It's amazing that these simple things can cause so much trouble in our nation's health. These refined oils and processed sugar are the underlying reasons why half of the country is overweight and 1/3 is diabetic. not a good report card for mainstream medicine!

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.

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

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
