Relax

 Welcome back everyone at Natural Health! Over the past weekend I got the privilege of celebrating a friend's wedding day and had a great time. It is still chiropractic month and wanted to keep the discussion directed in regards to chiropractic. It is great being adjusted and one aspect of living a healthy life is our ability to adjust ourselves to the many activities of life. 

Patience can take on many aspects and be used in various ways. It doesn’t always have to mean waiting for something in the future. It can also be practiced by being grateful for all we have now. We can even utilize it everyday by being observant with what life offers us rather than bemoaning certain conditions. It can be enjoying the process more and making peace with where we are now. Sometimes we are given more direction to do or not to do something which helps us to realize that what we wanted before may not be exactly in our best interest. It is a practice that when used can help others see that they have the power to use it also. At times we may be quick to judge or criticize someone but it is patience that helps us see where the person is coming from and perhaps why we judged in the first place. 


This is a reminder to remember that all of us are on our own paths, that we all have different perspectives and understandings of life. Although it may not be easy at times, being relaxed can allow life to unfold in great ways. It is also a key aspect of our own health and wellbeing. So be patient with yourself even with the times you may have forgotten to be patient.


Have a great week! 


Dr. Chip

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.

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...

Communication

  Natural Health Family, how is everyone doing? I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend and got some sunshine. Today let’s talk about communication and why it is important in our lives and for our own health.  Last weekend I explored Colorado. I went snowboarding and hiked a good amount also. I learned a lot just by getting out in nature and noticing different aspects of the forest and parks. One characteristic of the forest that I found interesting was the aspen trees. It appeared that they would appear sporadically in the forest and in groups. I was curious and wanted to learn more about them. I found out that the different aspen trees or tree trunks are not separate but they actually function as one tree. The roots of the tree are well connected so that they are able to communicate and act as one organism. I found this interesting because we tend to think that the whole tree is only about what is on the surface of the ground rather than all the roots and connections...
