Dairy and Digestion

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation -

     Well it looks like we're headed out of the Deep Freeze. I hope that you had a nice weekend enjoying the "warmer" weather . We're definitely not at Spring yet but it looks like we may be going that way. I've heard the robins chirping in the morning so apparently they think Spring is coming. And Easter seems early this year so hopefully those are good signs of warmer weather coming. We are using a lot of Congaplex and Immuplex at the office for our patients as these nutrition's help with strengthening the immune system. Remember that we're here to help with  anyone's immune system strengthening, plus as a side effect, getting the body healthier helps them reduce weight. We're getting a lot of questions about that too. 


     I don't know about you but I'm starting to get tired of all the Covid stories in the news. There is so much bologna going on there so I've decided to include an article this week about cheese .  At Natural Health, we try to keep people away from soft dairy because it's processed so much. Hard cheeses though are a great way of getting protein and other minerals from a dairy source. Cheese is a fermented food which means it's partly broken down and easier for the body to digest and absorb. Even the calcium is in a better form far easier absorption. Milk is so processed and heated that any nutrition in there is hard for the body to get out and  to most people , it is irritating to the gut and causes mucus production. That is a constant question here at Natural Health in that are certain foods allergic or are they just hard to digest for that person. Dairy products are like that for many folks but it seems that most people get along with the hard cheeses.


     Don't forget that during February and March we are having our Heart Sound Recorder special. The Heart Sound Recorder is a great way of quickly seeing how the nutritional needs of the body affect the heart. If you've had one yourself already , you know how well it works. Please tell others that it is here for them too and we would love to help them see what their nutritional needs are.

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. The ...

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...
