Seed Oils & Cholesterol

Hello Everyone In Natural Health Nation-

I hope that you all had a great weekend and got plenty of rest for this coming week. It sure was a nice weekend with some decent temperatures and some nice breezes. Even though it was hot, it wasn’t terrible and the breeze made it feel much cooler. I’m so thankful that were getting some rain in the area so that the grass is greening back up and is looking more like summer, rather than fall. Mowing grass is kind of the pain but not that bad. I’d much rather mow grass than scoop snow! Were still noticing some people having problems with their sinuses and allergies, I think due to the summer pollen and still this silly smoke stuff from Canada. Don’t forget to use Antronex and/or Allergco if you have those already. These are two great products that help the liver drain the lymphatics and keep the mucus from backing up into the sinuses. I think if we get a little more rain, it should stop many of these allergy causing issues.

We decided to go back to the Health Shops that we had during the covid debacle. It seems that folks got used to staying home at night and this way we can get the information out to everyone in an easy to do format, not only for us but for you to get the information. We will be doing the HealthShops live on Facebook and Instagram at 6:15 on Monday nights. Eventually, we will post them to Facebook and Brighteon.com. This month were talking about Summer Fun and will have some great nutritional tips to give out, and remind people about, that pertain to enjoying the outdoors in the sun and even dealing with the indoor climate with air conditioning. I will still make available the Patient Education Workshops that we have at the office for those that would like to bring a group. We can set this up on a different night to better accommodate everyone’s busy schedule. I also plan to record the Patient Education Workshop and put it on our website so patients can learn how and why Nutrition Response Testing works so well, and why everyone needs to be checked to make sure that their body is working correctly towards actual natural health.

The article that I’m sending along this week looks at the problems with seed oils. This is something that I’ve learned more about in the last decade as we were sure that refined flour and sugar were causing all the problems with health and degenerative disease, but have learned that these seed oils are just as bad, if not worse. Unfortunately, the mainstream media and medicine is still promoting the use of seed oils in the diet to lower cholesterol. They never tell anyone that the cholesterol in the body from food is only 5% of total cholesterol. The liver makes the other 95% and statin drugs are sold to stop the liver from producing cholesterol, which is a mistake in our book. It makes the mainstream medicine folks lots of money though. This is not only true of the drug itself, but there must be more drugs given to handle the side effects of this one. Our bodies are made to use good old animal fats to build and repair itself, as our grandparents, and all other humanity, have used. Butter is a great example of a good fat, but when you put it on a cinnamon roll in the morning, it doesn’t work very well. It’s not always the fat that is the problem, it’s what you put it on and how you use it. We do a lot of dietary coaching here at Natural Health, just to help keep patients out of trouble who are trying to be healthy.

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. The issu

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
