Sun Health

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation -

     Well I heard people complaining last month or so about the ground being dry and I think after this weekend, that problem is over. We should have lots of May flowers after all these April Showers and the moisture should last us a while. It seems we always get at least one or two big rains during the Spring and Saturday's rain was one of those big ones. Then comes along this week and it's going to  seem cold but it's actually just Spring weather. We're starting to use more of our allergy relief nutrition as the trees are all budding out and more pollen and dust in the air. At least that's one good use for a masks - ha.


     This month we're talking about food and environmental allergies and Sun health. The article that I've enclosed looks at the lack of minerals throughout the population due to two main factors, one being the  soils that our food are grown on are deficient and the second being that people eat too many foods that are processed and the minerals have been removed. We have a special reflex that we look at when we do our Nutrition Response Testing and get people fed with a good  mineral supplement. Plus we only use Whole Food supplements, not the synthetic kinds found at retail stores. Vitamins and minerals are essential to good health and many people think that they just naturally get them in their foods without consideration for the processing and where the foods came from. If you add in all the chemicals used to grow commercial foods, you really understand that they are not nutritious and sometimes even toxic. There is lots to learn about foods and where they came from and that's one of our goals at Natural Health, to get our patients to understand how to choose good foods that  have the vitamins and minerals that we need for good health. We are here to help you and yours find true health.

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.

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...
