Another Cold Snap

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                I hope that you were able to enjoy your weekend. We have gotten fairly lucky with halfway decent weather in January. Looks like we have a cold snap to go through and maybe some better temperatures later. I know that the calendar says spring is a ways away but we can always hope for better weather and not a lot of snow and especially ice. We are getting many reports of people suffering from colds and especially flu. I personally think this is a side effect of the holidays and the cold weather but we find if we just use some good supplements to help the immune system strengthen and heal, people can get over their illnesses and get back to “normal”. Cataplex A-C is our best nutritional supplement for the flu. It is a very simple supplement of vitamin A and vitamin C complex nutrition along with the herb “echinacea” that helps it to work better, faster, and deeper into the cells of the body. Very simple but very effective.

                We started a different rotation in our health shops this year. We went back to the health shops in the office on the first and third Mondays of the month and then this week, the fourth Monday, we’ll have our live health shop posted on Instagram and Facebook at 6: 15 on Monday night, and then posting to Brighteon.com and YouTube eventually. This month we’ve been talking about weight loss and general health, which are two big New Year’s resolutions people usually make, and by now, have forgotten about-ha. Unless you get the information about these topics into a lifestyle change, it’s hard to change our habits and the advertising and other holidays seem to get us right back into a bad health habit rut. Pretty soon it will be time for Valentine’s Day with a bunch of sugar and junk being sold, then we look forward to Easter with more opportunities for bad habits, and on and on. It’s just important to be aware of this and know that you can get out of these bad habits-we do it all the time here at Natural Health.

                The article that I’m sending along this week ties right in with the health shop topics. It is about fasting and the health benefits of that. When people normally hear that word, they think of a three day or week-long period of time not eating. We don’t really promote that but like the intermittent fasting protocol better. Intermittent fasting helps you to not eat all the time so that the body has a chance to concentrate more on healing and detoxing rather than just digestion and absorbing carbs for energy. When you don’t eat for a while, the body switches to a fat burning mode, and this makes you much more metabolically able to handle life. It also gives the body time to get rid of damage cells and replace them with new ones that work correctly. It’s a simple thing but again, very effective.
