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.

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...
