Sea Salt and Dehydration

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                Another great weekend! Do you remember back in January or February how cold it was, and we were wanting all that hot weather to come back? Well, it’s here-ha. I know that I sweat through three shirts on Saturday. I’m really trying to watch my hydration levels, getting a lot of good quality water and using sea salt and our Cal-Amo product. It’s so easy to get dehydrated and being dehydrated causes lots of problems. Sometimes we don’t really feel thirsty when were are really busy outside but we need to actually stop and drink water, like on purpose. If you’re feeling weak and tired or if you’re having leg cramps or muscle spasms, these are early signs of being dehydrated and the need of salt. Another indicator is the color of your urine, in that it’s meant to look lemonade color but if it’s really dark yellow, you’re getting dehydrated.

                This is our last health shop this month with the theme of Summer Fun. This week, we are talking about the importance of salt and how confusing mainstream medicine has made this topic. It’s another one of those very simple things that people have been brainwashed into believing that salt is “bad” and nothing could be further from the truth. Everything in moderation of course and the right form of salt is very important. All the processed and junk foods use refined salt which leaves you with just sodium chloride and not all the minerals that help the body to use it correctly. It’s a very simple thing but has been confused over the last half-century.

                The article that I’m sending along this week looks at why butter and coconut oil are good for you. Now if you just put your common-sense hat on and realize that we have been eating these oils for millennia, it’s only in the last half-century have we been told that saturated fat is bad for us. This is because of a mistake, or a narrative, in mainstream medicine that doesn’t take into consideration all the sugars that people eat and that that trend has grown over the decades. Our bodies need good oils and fats because that is where the oil soluble vitamins come from. These include vitamin A, D, E, and K. A good example of people not getting enough of these oils has been seen in this latest plandemic where those low in vitamin D have a weakened immune system. Taking a jab does not improve the strength of the immune system if there is no nutrition there for it to work with. It’s like whipping a tired horse, there’s only so much the body can do without proper nutrition and the ability to digest good foods that contain it. This is what we do at Natural Health, find underlying causes of why people have health issues, fix their diet, get them on the food supplements they need, and help them to understand what it takes to be healthy.

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...
