Christmas Is Here!

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

I hope that you had a great weekend and were able to rest up for the big week coming up. Christmastime can be such a great time of year as most people are in a good mood and we get to talk to friends and relatives more than usual. The goal is to keep the stress down to a minimum and just be happy and grateful that we survived another year. It’s a great time to put past differences behind us and move forward into a new year of positive goals and good feelings. The past is the past so let it go. And don’t forget about your health goals for 2024. At Natural Health, we’re trying to change the Health Care paradigm from that of disease management, as it is now, to actual true and vibrant health for all. A lofty goal but you have to start somewhere.

In our Health Shop this week, we’ll be talking about Handling Holiday Stressors. There are some simple things to do to help your body and mind handle the different events going on during the Christmas and holiday season. We’ll be talking about the dietary and nutritional components of that, and the reduction of nerve interference that helps your body to “compute” the stressors in our environment and how we should handle them. The brain and nervous system are what figure this all out but there are ways of helping it do a better job. For example-there is a major brain – gut connection that must not be ignored during this season. It basically boils down to the more crap you eat, the crappier you’ll feel. “Food” for thought.

The article I’m sending along looks at different spices that can help with digestion and to reduce bloating. These may be very necessary for all the foods and things will get into during this holiday season. The point here at Natural Health, is that there are so many good at natural foods and nutrients out there to help with human maladies, that we shouldn’t even need to look at the artificial and synthetic drug stuff. Especially if we can control ourselves and not go too crazy with the diet and drinks. Nature has put so many natural medicines out there for us and all we have to do is realize that they are available. We use Standard Process whole food nutrition and Mediherb herbal products to handle most any condition that patients bring us. It’s important to realize that our bodies have the ability to heal themselves, as they have for thousands and thousands of years, but barriers to health must be removed and that’s what we do with our Nutrition Response Testing work. We can figure out what is going on in that body and what it needs to remove these barriers that come from traumas and toxins and thoughts. The subluxations that we take care of with our chiropractic work are the same thing, barriers to good health. Let us help you start your journey towards good health in the coming year by removing these barriers.

And from all of us here at Natural Health, the staff and providers, have a very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year. Don’t forget about us when you’re talking to friends and family over the holidays and their complaining about their health problems. We have free consultations to help them to know what we do here, because it is different than most people are used to. At Natural Health, we just want all our patients to live a healthy and vibrant life until it’s time to move on to the next dimension. None of this sitting in a nursing home for years not knowing who you are.

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
