Sunshine and Vitamin D

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                I hope that you enjoyed your weekend and have found your winter coats. It looks like this cold weather won’t stay with us for long but it’s a wake-up call that winter is coming. Of course, the stores have Christmas stuff out already-even a month or two ago. That seems to get earlier every year. At Natural Health, were gearing up for the winter season and helping folks prevent nasty bouts of colds and flu. I always look at the trees and they still have their leaves on so were not headed into winter quite yet but it will be here soon. If you haven’t been in lately for a health check, now is the time to make sure that we get your immune system strengthened and get your energy up for all the upcoming holidays. They seem to always cause lots of stress and wear people down.

                Don’t forget that we are having our health shops on Monday evenings at 6:15 live on Facebook and Instagram and then will send the recording over to Brighteon.com and YouTube. Were still talking about Chiropractic this month as October is National Chiropractic Month. I hope that by now you realize that Chiropractic is more than just for helping neck and back pain but is a healing paradigm all by itself for all kinds of dis-ease problems. Our office has been helping patients for over 42 years now and we have lots of experience in helping with all kinds of problems and at any age. With Activator adjusting, which is an instrument adjusting technique with very light force, we can help anybody with any situation at any age. I’ve had patients come in before who were told by their MDs that they shouldn’t go to chiropractors but that’s because the MD doesn’t know anything about light force adjusting. Plus it’s like asking a Ford dealer about buying a Chevy, they just don’t understand the reasons.

                The article that I’m sending along this week looks at the need for sunshine and vitamin D for so many systems in the body to work correctly. Of course, I’m talking about the vitamin D complex and not the synthetic D3 that’s easily available at vitamin places. As with all of our nutrition here at Natural Health, we want patients to have the most bioavailable product that their body can actually use and absorb. Synthetic vitamins are usually only one part of the whole complex and body doesn’t like them, so they go right through the digestive system and don’t help with health. We strive to find exactly what the patient needs with our Nutrition Response Testing technique, and then get for them the best products in the world that the body can utilize for health and repair. What good does it do to buy junk vitamins that don’t work for the body and that you don’t even know your body needs? The advertising always sounds great but does it actually work? We get many people bringing in bags full of vitamins here at Natural Health for us to test, and most of them are worthless. It’s just not about what you put in your mouth, but it’s what the body actually absorbs and uses correctly as it was meant to.

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...
