Midwest Winter Weather

 Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-

                I hope that you’re hanging in there with his cold weather.  I was listening to some people talking this morning and they were talking about how the cold should kill all the bugs.  I wish that was true but they’ll be back, and not only the bugs we see in the summer on leaves, but the bacteria and viruses that are in and on our bodies all the time.  We hear from the experts about us catching this disease or that disease but the question is why doesn’t everyone catch the disease?  It’s not a question of the bug but a question of the body’s immune system and how strong it is, or isn’t.  Mainstream medicine does not talk much about the immune system because if they did, then you would know that there’s something you can do to help yourself, but if it’s just a happenstance that you come across this or that bug, then you think there’s nothing you can do to help stay away from sickness, other than wearing a mask or social distancing, which of course, doesn’t work.  There are many great ways to strengthen your immune system.  We do it all the time here at Natural Health and are ready and willing to help you and yours.

                One of the best ways to help your immune system is to be able to handle the stress in your life and environment.  Your body must be able to metabolize energy correctly for the mechanisms of the body to be able to handle its environment.  This month in our health shops, we’re talking about weight loss and health.  This week we’re talking about metabolism and how it affects the body, not only with strengthening the immune system and having energy, but if the body is stressed, it’s hard to lose weight.  With our Nutrition Response Testing technique, we can find the imbalances in the hormone systems of the body and get metabolism working correctly again.  The experts like to blame obesity as the cause of disease but it is actually the result of the body being out of balance and unable to metabolize correctly.  This is what lends towards disease processes and weight is actually just another symptom.  Don’t forget that these health shops are at 6:15 on Monday nights on Instagram and Face Book live, and then we’ll post them to Brighteon.com and Youtube for later watching.

                The article than sending along this week goes right along with this in that it’s an expose type of article on how the drug companies work to keep us sick so they can make more money.  This has been going on for decades, but people are slow to accept that fact because it’s so much easier to just eat junk food and not pay attention to health and take medication that insurance pays for, rather than actually taking responsibility for your health and doing actions that help the health process.  I talk to patients a lot about all the holidays that we go through that tend to keep the eating sugary junk foods, which moves us into a bad habit of doing this. and we forget about all the good foods that we should be eating almost exclusively.  Our society is just built up this way and you must become aware of it to do something about it.  Sort of like an alcoholic must accept the fact that he is an alcoholic before he can go forward with treatment.  Our society needs to realize that we are sugarholics before we can decide not to buy this stuff and be healthy so that life is easier and the quality of life extends to the end.  Get Healthy, Stay Healthy, and Live Well-Dr. Mark

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...
