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.

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
