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!

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...
