Ready For Fall?

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                Karen and I were in Denver Colorado for a seminar this weekend and it sounds like, and looks like, you got some rain over the weekend in this area. I think our rain gauge at the house had 2 inches in it, so that’s great because we were really needing it. I noticed the air seems a lot cleaner and that the pollen has been flushed out. I hope that it greens up some before winter gets here but it’s the end of the growing season so we’ll see. It seems like when we came back from the airport, things looked browner than I remembered when we left and that the beans and corn seem to be turning rapidly. Even some of the trees are starting to turn their leaves from green to yellow. I always like fall as a season but don’t really like what comes afterwards. The joys of living in the Midwest!

                Since I was gone for the weekend, I missed the health shop this week. I’m really looking forward to the health shop next week as were talking about idiopathic reasons for death in this country. It is the third or fourth leading cause of death, depending on what source you get it from, and it should be an interesting health shop. We’re seeing a lot more of this after this virus business and it will give me an opportunity to vent just a little. Truth in health is so important for a good life and being able to enjoy our life while were here on this earthly plane. Advertising and brainwashing should have no place in our healthcare decisions, but finding information that actually works towards being actually healthy. I think one of the good aspects of this virus business is that it has shown many of the bad actors in healthcare and what happens when you follow the money rather than finding the truth.

                The article that I’m sending along looks at the healthy aspects of pepper, whether it’s black or white. The big point that I like to make from these types of articles is that there are so many good herbs and spices available, to place in our diet, that are health promoting. We always want to try to find an organic source of these spices and herbs, but many of these foods have more nutrition in them than the other foods they are seasoning. Many people don’t like hot spicy food, but the heat in these spices have special minerals and phytochemicals which are good for the body. Sometimes folks can’t find the best quality foods but the spices that they use with the foods, carry good nutrients that help to make up for this quality. At Natural Health, we are always promoting the use of good herbs and spices along with trying to find the best sources of foods that you can. It’s also important to realize that digestion and absorption of these foods are just as important as the quality of the foods themselves.

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...
