Remembrance

 Hi again Natural Health Family. I hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend. Thank you to all those who served. This post will be short and to the point. Let’s talk about how seeing things differently can help us in our lives. 

When we think of Memorial Day we remember all those that gave their lives so that we could have our freedom. The many wars that have happened, all the conflict, all the chaos, we can see what many have gone through. Imagine what not only those who passed away due to wars but the families who continued on with all the loss. To all those living during those times, the amount of suffering must have been difficult to bear. Much of the turmoil would naturally cause many to be fearful, panicked, doubtful, sad, worrisome, frustrated, angry, and so on. Nevertheless, they still had the courage and faith to keep moving forward in life.


On a relative scale we can see that many of the issues and problems that we face today can be seen as not so great than what many had to overcome. This is not to downplay any issues people face today, rather inspiration to see what we are really capable of. Through the death of many of those before us let us be rebirthed in our way of seeing life. That although through the many of the seemingly insurmountable obstacles we may face that we may continue to keep moving forward in life. That we not focus on the problems and issues but rather see how amazing life can be once we shift our way of seeing it. So whether the battles are across the sea or even in our day to day lives, may we strive to resolve them and cherish the life we live.

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...
