Women's Health and Seed Oils

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                What a beautiful weekend! We had some very nice temperatures and even got a little rain in there, which will help keep the grass green and growing. This is a great time of year as everything is green and growing and the trees look so nice. By my house is a field of grass and it looks so nice and green now. As we get into middle and late summer, it dries out and turns brown so it’s so nice to enjoy the green grass blowing in the wind. There is a lot of pollen out there and before the rain, lots of dust. We have lots of great products here at Natural Health to help the body eliminate pollen and dust and stop allergy symptoms.

                In our Health Shop and Patient education workshop, we will be talking about women’s health issues, which basically pertains to everyone as we keep it fairly general so everyone can get something out of these events. Just remember that the fourth Monday of the month is our Health Shop that we will have live on Facebook and Instagram, and then putting it on YouTube and Brighteon.com eventually. There are so many things to know about actually being healthy and it makes sense if you just think about it. It really isn’t too hard to do but you must unlearn a lot of the commercial advertising you’ve heard over the last decades, and realize that that was just advertising for products and not actually health news. We have a great handout here at the office called Medical Myths, and it seems to be a crowd favorite as the folks we hand this out to really enjoy the information. Big Food has really spent a lot of time and money marketing their products and it seems hard to separate the actual facts from the plain advertising and marketing.

                The article that I’m sending along this week looks at the problems with seed oils and this is a perfect example of the BS that we have heard since the 50s. After Pres. Eisenhower’s heart attack, the medical geniuses decided that the problem was saturated fats, which of course it wasn’t, and they have been attacking that forever and got many people to switch to seed oils, which is exactly the wrong thing to do for health. The seed oils were first started as machinery oil and they are not meant for our bodies to consume. The big thing the Manufacturers liked is that these seed oils would stay on the shelves for a long time and not go rancid, which made them more money but made our health worse. Crisco and margarine fall into these bad oil categories and you can imagine how many people have eaten baked goods with these two health destroyers. Believe it or not, the good oils include butter, lard, tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil. We’ve been lied to for decades and the health of this country really shows it.

Good Food, Digestion and Absorption

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-                 I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and were actually grateful for all the food that we ate. There is a lot of good foods in the Thanksgiving meal, but also some that probably weren’t the best for us. We will just have to get back on the good eating bandwagon so that we stay healthy through the rest of these holidays coming up. I try to remind people to stay hydrated because it’s easy to forget to drink water and get your electrolytes. Staying hydrated just helps so many systems of the body and helps the pH to stay correct, which helps keep the bugs, which are in us and on us at all times, under control.                 We had a great Black Friday Open House/Patient Appreciation Day and were very thankful for the folks that came out and enjoyed some food and drink, an...

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...

  Hello everyone and natural health Nation -      Well we finally got some rain and now I’m beginning to wonder if we could turn it back off. It seems we're never happy - ha. I was surprised to see that the ground had dried out that much in a fairly short amount of time but with the rain we had this weekend, everything should be good for quite a while. I was happy to see the grass and everything green back up and the corn and beans are just growing like mad. We were working out in the rain on Saturday to finish some jobs and it was nice that it was warm. I'm sure we'll get lots of sunshine as the summer progresses and probably need more rain at some point too.      The article I'm sending along today looks at what happens to the human body when you eat processed foods. This is a problem during the summer when everyone gets into vacation mode and doesn't eat nearly as well as they did in the Spring. It's one of our problems in o...
