May Is Women's Health Month

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

            Another interesting weekend with the weather and the wind but everything is definitely greening up and looks like were finally getting away from freezing temperatures. The trees are budding out and the grass is definitely growing and almost hard to keep up with already. Getting plenty of moisture which should help bring up those May flowers. With all the budding of the trees and the flowers and things, there is lots of pollen out there and were starting to get patients asking for help with allergy symptoms. We have several good products for that that are actually good for the body by helping the liver to drain and process these things that were going to breathe in whether we want to or not. Over-the-counter and prescription medications work but there’s a price to pay and we help those symptoms with supplements that don’t damage the body in any way.

            And speaking of May, it’s a new month and were talking about women’s health this month. Our health shop this week looks at the hormone systems and how they work, or don’t work. It will be some interesting information so tune in live Monday evening at six or catch the presentation on Brighteon.com or YouTube. Hormones are the information pathway that the body uses to communicate with itself and get systems to work more or less. They are very interconnected and it’s much better to have the body regulate these systems itself rather than using artificial hormones that dis-regulate other systems as well.

            The article that I’m sending along looks at the direct connection between the increased amounts of ultra-processed foods and mortality. Anyone in the natural health field knows of this connection but now were seeing actual “scientific” proof statistically that this is the case. One of the main problems is that mainstream medicine does not want to address this as for one, they think that patients won’t do anything about it anyway, and two, it will reduce profits and doctor visits. That may be a harsh way of looking at it but that’s the business model. The good news is that we are here at Natural Health to circumvent this system and get people healthy by their own means and own self-control. Sometimes it seems hard but once you educate a person into why certain foods are bad for them, it makes sense and they can use self-control, and making better choices, to work towards a better, healthier lifestyle. With the use of our nutrition work and dietary counseling along with excellent chiropractic care, we help the body to work correctly and heal itself and, believe it or not, this helps to relieve cravings for all this junk food that we have gotten used to over the years.

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...
