 Hello Natural Health Family. Over the weekend I was able to learn from an online workshop that helped me understand different perspectives of many people. It is fun realizing what you already know but in new ways, just like reading a book twice and getting something different out of it. Let’s dive into the topic of health and attempt to seek the solutions we have lost.

When we look at the world today we tend to see all the problems including the health problems of the world. With all the available technology and resources we would think that our health would be greater. However, sadly this is not so. What our ancestors taught us at the beginning of the lives of our past relatives has fallen away to the wayside. For reasons that we may not know, we have forgotten or perhaps have been hidden from the path of knowledge needed for good health. 


In today’s world we have been conditioned to think that what is common now, that of illness and health issues, is normal. Don’t be confused, health is our normal and natural state of being. So why are so many people plagued by sickness and illness in today’s society? We have knowingly or unknowingly been going against the natural order of our health and well being. This is not entirely our fault. As a society we have swapped quality for convenience. Of course many things that are convenient have improved our well-being. However, we have taken for granted our conveniences not realizing or appreciating them. This has led us to eat, drink, and move (or not move) in unnatural ways. Further, we have been misled to think that we are victims of the world and that we are destined for an illness or dis-ease. This has led many to accept the notion that we are defined by an illness or diagnosis rather than knowing that we can overcome it by seeking knowledge that we have lost many years ago. 


When seeking the truth about health and well-being we must have an open mind which helps us realize what is truly possible. We must not let others, or even ourselves, think that we can’t get better. I once heard a great comment - “The study of health is vastly more beneficial than the study of disease.” It may be easy to think about all the issues of the world or our lives, however, the way to solve the issue is to think about the solution. So I leave you with this question for the week - “Do I ponder on problems or think about solutions.” Wish you the best this week and that you find the solutions you seek.

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...
