Dark To Light

 Hello Natural Health Family! I imagine everyone enjoyed themselves at least some during the past weekend. I have been contemplating the health of our country and even the world. It comes up in discussion here and there for various reasons when talking to others. Let’s then discuss a way of seeing health and illness to gain a different perspective. 

When you think of health and illness what do you think? You may think of a virus, a flu, a cold, or friends or relatives suffering from certain health related issues. It could be the many dis-eases that are commonly found in the country. Or perhaps the different establishments that are associated with health including offices and hospitals. Nonetheless, many times our minds will go to the illness rather than the health. We hear about sickness and issues all the time on social platforms including television. We see the commercials about how this drug can help with this issue, the latest product on helping with this problem, or the suffering of people with certain conditions. Not only is the media impressing on us about the illness, but our minds tend to be directed to the negative aspects. This is due to a survival instinct that was helpful in the past but not so much in this day and age. 


So what if we switched our view and let ourselves see life differently. Many times people think about illness as a condition that we get that is due to a chemical imbalance, old age, or that we were made with incorrect “blueprints.” This may be due to the education back then or what we thought of previously. However, new research and evidence is showing otherwise. When learning a new understanding we are able to realize that our health and healing is much more attainable than we thought. Our bodies are amazing at what they do and with the new information available we can realize that we can take action to help ourselves. We can let go of our previous limits and embrace a new understanding of health. 


When the country with the best technology in the world is last when it comes to overall health, it starts to force people to ask why. For many years we have been so focused on the problems that may or may not cause health issues. However, when we switch our focus on our own power and ability to attain health we will start to see a great change. Let’s not figure out why the room is dark but rather flip the switch and let the light shine.


Have a great week! 


Dr. Chip

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.

Enjoy The Show

  Hi Natural Health Family! Imagine everyone enjoyed their weekend with some great weather. Did you have a win from last week? Could be something small or a big accomplishment. Whatever it was, I hope it brought you joy in some way. Sometimes life can seem strugglesome, difficult, and overwhelming. We have the ability to reframe the way we see life. Let’s talk about our ability to respond to the way we see the world around us.  Have you ever been watching a tv show or movie and thought “wow there really isn’t anything going on in the show, there are no ups and downs, no twists and turns, it just seems so bland and boring.” Maybe you have thought of that but I would guess that you probably didn’t. The movie with the director, producer, and actors is meant to grab your attention. The director wanted to captivate the audience, of course to sell more movies, but also for the people watching to get lost in the experience of watching the movie. If the movie is really good we almost forget we

A Blessing

  Hi Natural Health Family. We got some rain this weekend! It was definitely refreshing and great to see something different. I am sure many of the farmers were happy to see that along with anyone that has grass. Time to mow again haha. Just like waiting for the rain we can be more patient in other aspects of our life.  Have you ever had something happen that you thought was bad or perhaps a mistake by yourself or someone else? However, after perhaps days, weeks, months you look back and realize if that didn’t happen then you would have never realized something that helped you down the road, a blessing in disguise. Many times people get caught up in thinking that this event that happened was so bad or that it should have never happened. When we are quick to judge something then we may keep ourselves from seeing something more clearly. Of course it is okay when we get frustrated from time to time, but then we can redirect ourselves to see whatever happened in a different way we can le
