Spring Has Arrived

 Hello Everyone In Natural Health Nation-

                I hope that you had a great weekend, even though it was a little cold and windy. My sister drove down from Detroit Lakes Minnesota and had asked if I wanted to go along as she was headed to Florida, so I did. It was cool down there, too, the first couple days but then got hot enough that I got a little bit of a sunburn. It’s interesting that I thought it was very green down there but the local residents seem to think it’s brown yet until the spring rains come. I guess it’s all a matter of perspective. Whatever the color, it sure is better than the white of snow!

                We are still talking about diet in our Health Shop and Patient Education Workshops this month. And we don’t mean diet as far as weight loss only but the diet that you eat that helps your body repair itself. There are rules that people must know about what they eat and drink to stay away from causing your body to fall apart from lack of nutrition, and on the other side of the coin, what to eat to build their body into a stronger and more energetic state. One simple rule is about eating proteins in the morning so that it helps your blood sugar remain more constant throughout the day. Having a big sugary breakfast, which includes grain cereals like oatmeal and cornflakes, makes your blood sugar go up and when insulin comes up to get it out of the bloodstream, causing your blood sugar to go low, and then you feel tired and wore out about 10 or 10:30. These are the things we talk about in our health shops and workshops, just trying to help patients remember the basic rules of eating that they’ve known forever but don’t hear about all the time. Mainstream media advertising is about selling more stuff, whether it’s the foods themselves, or the medical treatment it takes to stay alive from these bad diets.

                The article that I’m sending along this week looks at the connection between cell phone usage and tumor growth. The point at our office is that electromagnetic frequency pollution, or EMF, is real and even though it’s invisible, it can still cause trouble. A point here is that if you have heard the studies that show that EMF does not bother people at a certain amount, that could be true. The problem comes in when you add this source of it and that source of it and do that for a long period of time, it is a major stress to the body and that’s what leads to the problems. Mainstream medicine only tests one thing at a time and only for a short time so that it all seems good, but the statistics of mortality show differently.

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
