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.

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
