Digestion Month

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                Well, we are having some good weather and some bad weather and I think that’s normal for March. The warm days sure are a nice reminder that we will have more of those coming up. I think the grounds pretty well thawed out and that’s great for getting the ground to settle down and hopefully greening up in a while. Now we can start talking about spring allergies-ha. We used to have a magnolia tree in front of the Payson office and I hope they do well this year because they are so pretty. The problem is they bud out early and usually get froze off. I guess we’ll see what the weather brings us.

                The month of March brings us a new topic in our discussions for our health classes and this month we talking about Diet. This week were talking about Digestion Essentials, which is a big part of the work we do here at Natural Health. I’ll bet 80 to 90% of patients we see have digestion complaints. Anyone on a PPI has had digestion problems for years, and this medication will only make the problem worse. Again, at Natural Health, we are working on underlying causes of the problem and not covering symptoms up with medication. Medication is important for emergencies but not for long term health. It should only be used for short-term and the underlying cause of the problem should be investigated, as we do here at Natural Health.

                The article that I’m sending along looks at how farm raised salmon, while tasting good and is promoted as a health type food, can have all kind of hidden problems. There are many of these kinds of things in processed foods or confinement grown foods, so the wise consumer must be wary. We try to get our patients to buy organic and wild caught or deep-water seafood but sometimes it’s hard to find and is more expensive. With the food inflation that were seeing, it’s important to get the healthiest food we can get as inexpensively as possible. It may be also time to look at growing your own food or at least finding out how to do it if things get worse. We are gathering more information about this here at Natural Health to share with our patients, as it may become essential. Pray for peace and don’t listen to mainstream media. We have a list of independent media sources that are not carrying a narrative available for those who are interested. And, don’t forget about our 40th anniversary coming up on March 15. Will be celebrating that whole week with specials and taste testing’s and just having a good old time.

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...

The Need to Be Right

The Need to Be Right             I’m sure that you have talked with people and discovered their need to be right. Everyone wants others to emotionally feel close to them and that what they are doing, whatever it is, is the right way to do it or is best. Many people we have talked to, have been doing things a certain way for years, or decades, or even for generations. In their mind all that time makes it seem right. The question to ask though-is it? Many of these notions are based on outdated or uninformed ideas and may have even worked well for a while but the end result is not turning out as expected. It may also take some time, as in years or decades, to see the results of a wrong idea or a wrong action. You may have heard the expression about being “happy in your misery” or “being dead right”. These are expressions about people thinking they are doing the right thing but in reality, they’re not.     ...

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...
