Breathing

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                Another beautiful weekend that I hope you were able to enjoy. We had a big family reunion that was held off for two years because of the covid stuff. It was great to see everyone and catch up on the stories of our relatives over the years and such a beautiful weather weekend. I hope that you were able to get outside and enjoy the fresh air and notice how everything has greened back up now since we’ve had all the rain. It almost looks like spring again, especially with the crops growing so well now.

                Don’t forget about our health shops that we do live on Monday night at 6:15 on Instagram and Facebook and then we will post it to YouTube and Brighteon.com afterwards. This month were talking about Summer Fun and this week were talking about Breathing and why people sometimes forget how to breathe, which almost seems funny, but it makes for more anxiety and less ability to think clearly. Should be a very interesting health shop.

                The article that I’m sending along this week looks at how mushrooms have certain nutrients in them that help with cognitive function. The real point is that there are lots of good foods out there that if raised on good soils, have many nutrients in them to help our bodies be healthy. What we see here at Natural Health, is that many people have digestion problems or gut issues that don’t allow them to absorb the good nutrition or digest foods that they eat. It’s important to know that many of the processed foods are easier to digest because they have no nutrients in them, most of them being refined carbohydrates that the body can easily absorb. This leads to a lot of weight gain and insulin level instability in the bloodstream. We try to get patients to stay away from processed foods and mostly consume whole foods raised organically. Just like putting diesel fuel into a gas engine, eating lots of junk food with all kind of chemicals and preservatives doesn’t work well for our bodies either with the end result being a breakdown of the “motor”. This is why we have so many problems with degenerative diseases in this country. At Natural Health, we help to teach our patients what foods are actually good for them and make sure they can digest these good foods well.

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...
