Real Health

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                Another beautiful weekend! Everybody should be happy with this weekend as we had all kinds of weather-hot weather, cool weather, nice breeze, a little rain here and there-a really nice weekend for all. I got a little more sun to help my vitamin D levels stay high and hopefully you were able to get outside and enjoy some sunshine too. We are getting many patients coming in who are somewhat dehydrated so I’m harping on that quite a bit, to get lots of good water and getting electrolytes-which is a fancy word for mineral or sea salt. We’re going through a lot of our product called CAL-Amo, which is a calcium salt pill, and helps with that feeling of being very worn out and with leg cramps or muscle spasms. We know how to help you be healthy here at Natural Health.

                Our health shop this week looks at the topic of Anxiety and Depression. This is our last week in men’s health month but this topic includes both genders-and yes there are only two. Many of these conditions that seem so prevalent in our society, are fairly easy to get rid of if people only find out how to not cause them every day. For instance, most mental issues have a degree of vitamin B deficiency, but if people are eating bagels every morning for breakfast, which is a refined carbohydrate, they are actually causing the problem that they are complaining about. Taking medication to cover up the symptom is a Band-Aid and actually makes the problem progressively worse. At Natural Health, we are all about finding the underlying cause of the problem and helping the patient to heal themselves.

                The article that I’m sending along today looks at the health benefits of eating Beets. Now I’m not a big fan of them either and we have products that basically are beets in a pill (A-F Betafood), but if you like them, they are definitely a healthy food to consume. The real point here is that there are many good foods that we can get a hold of that help our health to increase but it’s important to realize what they are and that digestion and the digestive system must be working correctly. For example, many older people who have digestive systems that are not working well, only consume processed foods because there easier to digest. Of course, this lends them towards nutritional deficiencies which cause symptoms and they take more medication and on and on. At Natural Health, we’re here to get people off that merry-go-round and work towards actual real health.

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...
