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.

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...
