Tell Congress: Amend Six Bills That Would Force More Cell Towers Into Our Neighborhoods

Congress is advancing six bills — HR 1343, 1588, 1665, 1681, 1731, and 6046 — that would greatly expand federal control over wireless deployment and limit the ability of local governments to regulate where wireless facilities are installed.

These towers have never been proven safe and no insurance company will even insure them,
because they have never been proven safe, ever.

There is a new documentary by ICAN and Del Bigtree called
“An Inconvenient Study” 

Journalist Del Bigtree issued a challenge to the head of infectious disease institution,
to conduct the most thorough vaxxed vs. unvaxxed.

 The Tribeca Film Festival had it scheduled, but was so challenged about showing it, that they refused to show it.

This is an excellent film.

It is about the truth about study about v……e,
(I cannot use certain words in my writing or it will be censored)
injections and how effective are they.

I feel is vitally important to watch.

During my work with people who have diabetes, I have found they show remarkable improvement in their health and well-being from consuming a plant-based and almost completely raw-food diet.

Diabetics who would like to reduce their medications can now understand that the type of food they eat has a direct impact on their health. In 2014, Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy published a study in which researchers performed a meta-analysis of six significant prior research studies. Researchers found that a plant-based diet significantly improved blood sugar control in Type 2 diabetes.

The results were that plant-based diets improved a key indicator of blood sugar control, an indicator called Hemoglobin A1c. The results improved as much as 1.2 points, which is much greater than the effect of typical oral diabetes medicines.2 The benefits of excluding meat, cheese, and eggs from the diet was as much as 0.7 points in some of the studies, and averaged 0.4 points overall.3

Dr. James Anderson studied 25 Type 1 and 25 Type 2 diabetics. This study involved placing the patients on a high-fiber, high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet in a hospital setting. Dr. Anderson initially put the patients on the American Diabetes Association recommended diet plan for one week. Then he switched them over to a vegetarian, plant-based diet for three weeks.

None of these patients were overweight when they started the study, but they were on insulin shots to control their blood sugar levels. All through the study, Dr. Anderson measured their blood sugar levels, their cholesterol levels, their medications, and their weight. Type 1 diabetics cannot produce insulin, and it was thought that dietary changes would not affect this situation.

But, the results showed that after three weeks on a vegetarian, whole-food, high-fiber diet, the “Type 1 diabetics were able to lower their insulin medication by an average of 40%”, “their blood sugar profiles improved dramatically”, and their “cholesterol levels dropped by 30%”.4

These results were more impressive with the Type 2 diabetics who had not incurred as much damage to their pancreas. After three weeks on the high-fiber, vegetarian diet, 24 of the 25 Type 2 diabetics could discontinue their insulin medication completely.

The one Type 2 diabetic who wasn’t able to get off his medication had been a 25-year diabetic taking 35 units per day. After three weeks of vegetarian food, his requirement dropped down to only eight units per day. As he continued the vegetarian eating plan at home, he was able to cut out all insulin shots after another eight weeks.5

Studies have shown that eating more plant-based whole food increases your dietary fiber intake. This can be extremely important to “protect you from the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer, some gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, obesity, and non-insulin-dependent diseases. Furthermore, increasing fiber intake provides therapeutic advantages for management of high blood lipids, certain gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes”.6

Besides adopting a plant-based diet, diabetics can take six important dietary actions to regulate their blood sugar and support their health:

1. Chromium

2. Cinnamon

3. Omega-3 fatty acids
4. Vitamin D

5. Zinc

6. Unrefined, mineral-rich Salt

Chromium

The mineral chromium helps transport glucose from the blood to the muscles. According to the National Institutes of Health, “Chromium is known to enhance the action of insulin, a hormone critical to the metabolism and storage of carbohydrates, fat, and protein in the body.”7 People who eat non-organic foods have a greater likelihood of being deficient in this important trace mineral. The chemical fertilizers used in industrial farming destroy chromium that would naturally be in the soil. This is one of many reasons organic food is always the best choice at the grocery store.

Chromium supplements should have GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) on the label. It should say, “Chromium GTF”. Avoid synthetic supplements that don’t list whole, organic foods as the ingredients. (I purchase the brand “Innate” from “7 Lights.”)

Cinnamon

Cinnamon is emerging as a true wonder food. Cinnamon is a spice, and it’s obtained from the inner bark of a few tree species. Research shows that cinnamon can help lower blood sugar, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in people with Type 2 diabetes. Cinnamon contains antioxidants that create healthier arteries and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Cinnamon can also benefit us with increased alertness and energized senses. Even a teaspoon a day helps tame blood sugar levels.

Ceylon cinnamon is the best cinnamon to use. Cassia, Saigon, and Chinese cinnamon contain five percent coumarin, which is problematic for the liver. Ceylon cinnamon has only .0004 percent coumarin. Take it in capsule form or sprinkle it on your morning toast, oatmeal, or other dishes.

Omega -3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are healthy fats our bodies cannot make and must obtain from food. Studies show that adding omega-3 to your diet promotes healthy blood sugar levels. Try adding cold-pressed, organic flax or hemp seed oil to your smoothies and other foods, like oatmeal chia seed pudding in the morning.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D (known as the sunshine vitamin) is a prohormone; that is, a fat-soluble vitamin. It is in a family of compounds that includes vitamins D-1, D-2, and D-3. These vitamins can affect as many as 2,000 genes in the body.

Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine studied the medical information of 124 subjects between the ages of 36 and 89 with Type 2 diabetes. Those with the lowest levels of Vitamin D had the highest levels of blood sugar. Only six percent of the subjects were taking a Vitamin D supplement. You may need to address a possible Vitamin D deficiency.  I supplement my Vitamin D intake with a whole-food multivitamin, like Epresat Adult Liquid & Herbal Supplement, sold by The Health Ranger, sold by the Health Ranger.

Zinc

Zinc is one of the most important minerals used by the body. It helps with the production of approximately 100 enzymes. Zinc contributes to building up the immune system. Zinc is required for protein and DNA synthesis, insulin activity, and liver function.

Zinc is not really stored in our bodies, so we need a regular supply. Men need about one-third more zinc than women, because the prostate gland and semen are highly concentrated with zinc. A zinc deficiency may appear as skin problems, impairment of taste, a poor immune system, hair loss, diarrhea, fatigue, wounds not healing properly, or a poor or slow growth rate for infants.

Even if you eat zinc-rich foods, you may need a supplement, because phytic acid and dietary fiber in certain foods can inhibit the absorption of zinc. If you take a vitamin supplement of any kind (such as a multi-vitamin, Vitamin D, chromium, or zinc), make sure it is in a natural form, not a synthetic one. Synthetic forms of any nutrient can be harmful to the body. 8
Instead, buy dietary supplements that show whole, organic foods in their ingredient list.

Unrefined Mineral-rich Salt

Unrefined mineral-rich salt promotes the proper balance for the endocrine, adrenal, and thyroid glands to function properly. It supports healthy blood pressure, detoxifies the body, and—along with water—is necessary for the optimal functioning of the immune system, hormonal system, and cardiovascular health.9

Dr. David Brownstein says low-salt diets “promote toxicity” and have:

…adverse effects on numerous metabolic markers, including promoting elevated insulin levels and insulin resistance. Low-salt diets have been associated with elevating normal cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels, which in turn, have been associated with cardiovascular disease. Finally, low-salt diets will lead to mineral deficiencies and the development of chronic disease.10

In conclusion, you can see that the diet is a huge factor in curing or managing diabetes, and preventing so many diseases that diabetes often leads to: blindness, amputation, stroke, and heart disease. It can also prevent having to take insulin injections for the rest of your life.

It’s a personal decision that no one can make for you. I always feel it is so powerful when someone finally decides to take control of their health and well-being, and chooses to make the necessary changes. It all starts with making that decision and taking action to execute it.

By becoming aware, and consuming more organic, plant-based foods, vitamins, and supplements, you can help prevent diseases, balance your body, and live a longer and healthier life.

The post Diet Is A Powerful Treatment For Diabetics By Nutritionist Nancy Addison appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

I’ve been inside a lot over the past winter and spring months and because of this, I realize that I was not getting as much sunshine, exercise, or fresh fruits and vegetables as I would like.

Summer is a great time to cleanse our body and get ourselves into more optimum health, so that we can have the best quality of life.

In the last few years, it has become more and more apparent to me that many health challenges these days of people and pets are actually a result of toxic overload and parasites.

According to Dr. Gordo Crozier, DO, an integrative physician in Orlando, more than 60 million people in the USA are infected with parasites.

“Because parasites are spread by pets, contaminated water and improperly handled food, they’re becoming an increasingly common health threat in the U.S.” (1)

We can also obtain parasites from other things, such as ingesting dirt particles that are not completely washed off of food, eating meat, walking barefoot outdoors, traveling in other countries, drinking tap water, and swimming in lakes or ponds.

According to Dr. David Jockers, the eggs of parasites hatch during full moons, so he has a full moon parasite cleansing protocol. (2)

What are Parasites?

“A parasite is a living organism that lives off of another living organism, which is called a “host.” There are three basic classes of these organisms”, according to Dr. Jockers. (3)

• • “Protozoa: These parasites are single-cell microscopic organisms that can multiply or divide within the host. They are transmitted from person to person through fecal matter, blood, or insect bites. An example is the parasite Plasmodium, which causes malaria.
  • Helminths: These are worm parasites. They are larger, multi-celled organisms that may be visible to the naked eye. Examples are roundworms, pinworms, trichina spiralis, tapeworms, and flukes. It is estimated that half of the world’s population (over 3 billion people) is infected with at least one of three worms: roundworm, hookworm, or whipworm (4).
    Ectoparasites: These live on (rather than in) their hosts. Ectoparasites are also described as “blood-sucking arthropods.” Examples are lice, bed bugs, and fleas.” (5)

In the US, parasites are often misdiagnosed or undiagnosed. But I have learned over the years that many of the “diseases” people are diagnosed with can actually be caused by parasites.

According to Columbia University parasitologist Dickson Despommier, “About half the world’s population (over 3 billion people) are in infected with at least one of the three worms forming what he calls the “unholy trinity”—large roundworm, hookworm and whipworm. (6)

Dr. Bryan Ardis was on my radio/TV show in May, and he said that if you have a pet, then you have parasites. He mentioned this as he was expanding on how he believes MS could actually be caused by parasites in the brain. (7)

 Dr. Lee Merritt has done some video interviews and shows, concerning her understanding that most cancers are actually parasites and parasite eggs. She said she was taught in medical school that “there really wasn’t a parasite problem in people in the US.”  (8)

There is a problem, and Dr. Merritt believes there is a lack of education for health care providers on this subject and health challenge. In one of her most recent videos, she addressed the parasite/cancer situation: “Cancer is Parasites, the Scientific Evidence, and What to Do About it.” (9)

In this video, she stated that “They have known that Cancer is caused by parasites since 1906.  A Nobel Prize was given for this discovery then covered up.” (10) She goes on to say that symptoms caused by parasitic infections are usually misdiagnosed because they are similar to many common ailments.

Some of these examples are:

An peptic ulcer may actually be a roundworm infection.
Diabetes and Hypoglycemia can be a result of tapeworms.

Parasites could be the cause of health challenges like chronic fatigue, hypothyroidism, type 1 diabetes (T1D), multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and Crohn’s disease.

 I have come to the conclusion, after speaking with many doctors and doing a lot of research, that parasites mainly feed on toxins and heavy metals, including mercury. (We can get mercury from the new energy saving lightbulbs, skin care products, dental fillings, vaccines, fish, and tap water.)

Unfortunately, parasites also feed on the essential nutrients in our body. They deplete their host (human, animal, fowl, fish) of nutrition, while at the same time excreting toxins, adding to a toxic overload in the body.
 I understand from my research that we, in the US, are living in a pretty toxic-saturated environment.

Typically, we can be exposed to approximately 40 to 400 chemicals a day from air, water, food, cleaning fluids, fire retardants, EMF’s, energy saving devices, insect sprays, lawn fertilizers, herbicides, body care products, sunscreens, and the list goes on.

Dr. Ardis mentioned that he believes we could realistically be exposed to as many as 5000 chemicals a day! As long as we have these chemicals in our body, parasites have an abundance of food to attract them and support them.

 Dr. Bernard Jensen, an expert in colon research and therapy, states that “the average person over 40 years of age has between 5 and 25 pounds of buildup in their colon. . . Parasites of all sizes thrive in this undisposed residue of fecal matter, slowly but surely toxifying the whole body.” (11) 

90% of Americans have Parasites

We’re talking about nasty critters like whipworms, tapeworms, roundworms, and toxoplasma.

Gut problems like these are usually the first sign:

• Stomach cramps
• Vomiting or nausea
• Loose stools

But parasites don’t just harm your digestion.
 If you feel like you are always hungry, always tired, have achy joints, depression, rashes, hives, insomnia or disrupted sleep, itchiness (frequently in the private parts), yeast flare-ups, abdominal pain or cramping, diarrhea, bloating, coughing or wheezing, food allergies, weakness, or dizziness, you may indeed have parasites. (12)

Dr. Peter Wina, chief of patho-biology at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, says, “We have a tremendous parasitic problem right here in the US. It is just not being addressed.” (13)

Joseph Sterling wrote in his newsletter, Secrets of Robust Health, that parasitic infection is common: Humans can play host to over 100 different kinds of parasites, ranging from microscopic to several-feet-long tapeworms. Contrary to popular belief, parasites are not restricted to our colon alone, but can be found in other parts of the body: the lungs, the liver, the muscles and joints, the esophagus, the brain, the blood, the skin, and even in the eyes. (14)

Some common symptoms of parasitic infection are: constipation, gas and bloating, diarrhea, back pain, joint and muscle pain, irritable bowel syndrome, allergies, insatiable hunger, itchy ears, nose, or anus, unpleasant sensations in the stomach, nervousness, grumpiness, chronic fatigue, lethargy or apathy, various skin problems, problems sleeping, nutritional deficiencies or anemia, problems with the immune system, teeth grinding or clenching, weight gain, forgetfulness, dizziness, and blurry vision.

These symptoms are all worth trying to remedy with a simple detoxification cleanse. 
The most important thing with a good parasite cleanse is that you stick with it as exactly as directed, in order to get rid of all of the egg sacks and the hatched larva that the parasites may have laid in the body.

Whenever there is a full moon, parasite eggs usually hatch. Knowing that, it would be a good idea to start a parasite cleanse during a full moon, and continue your cleanse at least a week or two after a full moon.

Following are some natural ways to help keep your body’s immune so strong, it will help prevent parasites.

Eat raw organic fruits and vegetables

It is especially important to make sure you are eating raw organic fresh fruits and vegetables with your meals, because these contain live enzymes. 

Raw plant-based enzymes take apart foreign proteins and expose the hidden parasites, which have cloaked themselves in a protein coating. The immune system cannot see the cloaked parasites, so it doesn’t know to get rid of them. This is especially true for someone who eats a mostly meat diet. But, when you eat raw, organic vegetables and fruits, the body has a plentiful supply of enzymes that go searching for proteins to eat. It is these enzymes that search the body and find and ingest the protein coating off of the parasites and egg sacks, revealing them to the immune system. The immune system sees the danger and destroys the yeasts, parasites, and any other pathogens.

According to the Britannica, the foods and essential oils of spices and herbs can be used to help remedy a parasitical infestation. (15)

Spices and herbs are “parts of various plants cultivated for their aromatic, pungent, or otherwise desirable substances. Spices and herbs consist of rhizomes, bulbs, fruit, seeds, leaves, barks, flower buds, and stigmas. They are commonly divided into the categories of spices, spice seeds, and herbs. (16)

Garlic

Garlic, throughout history, has been used to treat many health challenges, including viruses, fungi, bacteria, parasites, and cancer. It is a powerful food. It can even chelate (remove) heavy metals from the body. Ingesting garlic can also be a way to prevent mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas from wanting to bite you. (17)

Black Walnut-Nuts & Hull

The nuts and green hulls of black walnut (Juglans nigra) are a favorite of holistic health herbalists because of their ability to cleanse the blood and the intestines. Black walnut hull is used to cure fungal infections. The juice taken from the green hulls are used to kill parasites. Only green hulls should be used. (18)

Wormwood – (Ivermectin is the pharmaceutical version of Wormwood)

Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) is a perennial herb with tiny yellow-green flowers. The leaves and flowers are frequently used as a stomach problem remedy, and are an effective remedy for intestinal worms. It is advised to avoid taking wormwood if you are a nursing woman. Wormwood has powerful antimicrobial attributes, and can be used for many other types of infections. (19)

Cloves

Another favorite of mine is cloves. Clove buds are an important herb used in Ayurvedic medicines for the treatment of gastrointestinal infections and for worms. 
This treatment has been used for thousands of years. Cloves contain a powerful oil (eugenol), which has been researched and found to help in the eradication of many pathogens in the gut, including parasites. Clove oil has been found to dissolve the eggs left behind by worms. It is believed to be the only oil that destroys almost all parasite eggs. Clove is such an incredibly strong broad-spectrum spice/oil/herb because of its antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and powerful antimicrobial properties. (20)

Thyme

Thyme is one of the most effective herbs for stimulating the thymus, a major gland of the immune system.  Thyme contains natural volatile oils which are known to help strengthen the immune system. The essential oil of thyme can eliminate the growth of many parasites, and it can kill them in the intestinal tract, as well as reduce intestinal cramping. (21)

Oil Of Oregano

Oil of oregano is one of the most powerful essential oils. It is important to buy one that is not diluted down with olive oil or another carrier oil.  This oil is extremely powerful in crushing free radicals, and it is antiparasitic, antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal. It is an indiscriminate destroyer of the bad pathogens, and can aid in resetting the microbial environment in the intestines. Many studies show the effectiveness of essential oil of oregano with everything from parasitical infections to cancer. There is a study that shows an Inhibition of enteric parasites by emulsified oil of oregano in vivo. (22)

Diatomaceous Earth

Food grade diatomaceous earth (which is finely crushed sea shells) is what I frequently use for eliminating fleas and ticks in my yard and on my pets. Diatomaceous earth absorbs methyl mercury, E. coli, endotoxins, viruses, organophosphate pesticide residues, and drug residues. Its positive effects include killing intestinal parasites, balancing the intestinal flora, killing viruses, and absorbing toxins. (23) It is highly recommended for intestinal cleanses, but it is a very fine powder, so avoid inhaling it.

Reishi Mushrooms

Reishi mushrooms grow wild on decaying logs and also on trees. Reishi mushrooms have anti-tumor and anti-oxidative properties. They can promote lower blood pressure and lower glucose levels. Reishi mushrooms have been used to successfully treat hepatitis B, glomerulosclerosis, ulcers, and they are also antifungal and antiparasitic. (24)

Pumpkin Seed

“Pumpkin seeds and pumpkin seed oil are rich in fatty acids, zinc, copper, sterols, anti-inflammatory agents, and amino acids. Pumpkin seeds are used to treat worms, especially tapeworms. Even though it’s not the fastest parasite killer; it works. The recommendation is to eat raw, organic, sprouted pumpkin seeds every day for several weeks.” (25)  I freshly grind them up and sprinkle them on my salads, as well as my pet’s food.

Pomegranate Seed

Pomegranate has many health benefits, and for decades the pomegranate seed has been used to treat infections from the most common parasites found in humans: roundworms, pinworms and tapeworms. (26)

Bentonite Clay
Bentonite clay is a volcanic ash containing a multitude of minerals. Historically, Native Americans used it for detoxifying and cleansing their bowels. They called it Ee-Wah-Kee, meaning “the mud that heals.” Bentonite has the ability to bind with toxins, drugs, and heavy metals, and draw them out of the body. Many of those are actually what parasites feed on.

I had a cyst on my wrist, and I didn’t want to have surgery to remove it. I started using bentonite clay on a daily basis with my High-Fiber Cleanse. Within three weeks, the cyst had disappeared. Dr. Merritt said to me that the cyst was probably a parasite egg sack. (27)

Strongly polarized, bentonite clay has a powerful electromagnetic field when hydrated. It can attract and hold on to various forms of radiation, and it has the ability to pick up a great deal more than its own weight in positively charged particles. 

Dr. Jensen, ND, DC, PhD, suggested using bentonite clay to absorb the radiation in your bones, which are often subjected to radiation through the use of X-rays, computers, television, and radiation treatments for cancer. (28)

The medical community has found bentonite clay to have amazing healing properties. 

One study by a research duo from Arizona State University’s Biodesign Institute and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences found that  “Unlike conventional antibiotics routinely administered by injection or pills, the so-called “healing clays” could be applied as rub-on creams or ointments to keep MRSA infections from spreading. . . The clays also show promise against a wide range of other harmful bacteria, including those that cause skin infections and food poisoning. . . Their study, one of the first to explore the antimicrobial activity of natural clays in detail, was presented at the 235th national meeting of the American Chemical Society, the world’s largest scientific society. . .” (29)

In addition to finding that MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) was susceptible to bentonite clays, they found the clays exhibited antimicrobial effects against Mycobacterium ulcerans (which is related to tuberculosis, and results in a flesh-digesting disease) and two causes of food poisoning: E. coli and Salmonella. (30)

Arizona State University found that some bentonite clays were contaminated. So, only use food-grade bentonite clay that is specifically labeled safe for internal use. (31)

 I also recommend using a wood, plastic, ceramic, or glass bowl and spoon when using bentonite clay. Avoid using a metal bowl and spoon, because the metal will react with the clay and reduce most of its healing properties.

Bentonite clay can bind with a lot of various toxins, like mercury, EMF’s, graphene oxide, and even some parasites.  I use food grade for people and pets, because this helps eliminate the food the parasites feed on.

Here is a link for some Food Grade Bentonite Clay Capsules I have recommended to my clients. 

Activated Charcoal

Another supplement that can eliminate the toxins that parasites feed on is activated charcoal. Activated charcoal is also wonderful for nausea and diarrhea in people and pets.

Here is a link for one brand that I have used. Wild Activated Charcoal Capsules from 100% Organic Coconut Shells. 

I recommend taking your healthy nutritional supplements in the morning.
Then I recommend taking the detox supplements 1 or 2 hours after the evening meal, because we naturally detoxify overnight.

Herbal Remedies

Always use caution when working with herbal remedies, because some of them should not be combined with others. Do your research.

The good news is that any side effects from herbs are less likely to bother you than anything on the warning label of every single pharmaceutical.

In your research, you might ask a knowledgeable herbal practitioner before taking any of the above suggestions, especially if you are pregnant or nursing.

A healthy diet should be followed whenever doing a cleanse, but especially when taking broad-spectrum antimicrobial supplements.

You might weaken some of the beneficial bacteria in your body, and you will want to replenish these, because these beneficial bacteria are what create your immune system.

Here are a few of my favorite parasite remedies.

Iodine Supplementation

Iodine supports our thyroid and is missing from most foods today. It dissipates when it touches oxygen, so white iodized salt is not an effective way to ingest iodine. I read Dr. David Brownstein’s book, “Iodine: Why You Need It, Why You Can’t Live Without It” many years ago. He explains how we need iodine on a regular basis, to be healthy and to have our thyroid function properly.

He says “it is impossible to achieve your optimal health if you do not have adequate iodine levels. He says iodine deficiency can contribute to: breast cancer, fibrocystic breast disease, detoxification, fatigue, Graves’ disease, and Hashimoto’s disease and may be the root cause of thyroid problems including hypothyroidism and thyroid cancer.” (32)

As a Certified international wildlife rehabilitator, I know that animals require iodine also. I recommend at least one drop of iodine a day for cats and dogs.

What I have learned since then is that iodine is antimicrobial and can disrupt the cellular structure of intestinal parasites. It can also disrupt parasite metabolism, making it more difficult for them to survive. (33)

The bentonite clay, pumpkin seed, moringa leaf powder, and psyllium husk cleanse is one you can make at home.

Moringa leaf powder has a variety of health benefits, from increased wound healing to managing blood glucose. (34). This cleanse can help rid your body of many types of parasites.

I have been doing a cleanse like this for almost 40 years.

Ingredients:

1 tsp. organic psyllium husks


1/8 teaspoon (or less) bentonite clay


1⁄2 tsp. freshly ground, fresh, organic, raw sprouted pumpkin seeds

½ tsp. raw, organic moringa powder

8 oz. purified water

There are anti-parasite cleanses on the market.
Here are a few listed below.

My favorite is the Harmful Organism Cleanse Program by GLOBAL HEALING. Dr. Ed Group creates these products in his own facility. He tests his products for quality, effectiveness, and origin of ingredients. Here is the link for Global Healing.

When doing the parasite cleanse for the first time, you may need to do it for an entire three months (90 days). I recommend this, because you want to make sure you rid your body of the parasite as it goes through all of the stages of life. You do not want it to re-emerge in the future, which can happen if it is in a stage not addressed by the cleanse.

Another parasite cleanse you can do is 
Freedom Cleanse and Restore Protocol from Dr. Bryan Ardis. Here is a link for Dr. Ardis’ website.

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger has information on parasites.  Click here.

When my daughter joined the Peace Corp and moved to Mali Africa, she lived in a mud hut with a dirt floor, no modern bathroom, no electricity, no running water, and she had to get her water from a well. She also ate all the food the villagers made her, in order to maintain her friendly relationship with the people. It is a terrible insult in many cultures around the world to turn down a food or drink offering.

So, when my daughter lived there in that tiny rural village, she started getting more prominently diagnosed parasites. She had to do some tough parasite cleanses while she was there and also when she returned to the US. She is very dedicated to eating healthy and detoxifying on a regular basis, since she is still quite the world traveler and loves nature. In fact, that is my daughter and I swimming in a river in Cambodia, in 2014, bathing an elephant in the photo above. She has a love of nature and adventure like I do and we share that love.

Being someone who loves being out in nature, I realize that I have been doing natural parasite protection protocols my whole life and I didn’t even realize it. (The iodine supplementation that I have been doing for around 25 years, is one of them.)

When our immune system is strong and we are eating nutrient-rich fresh fruits and vegetables, then our body can be strong enough to defend itself against these types of organisms. But when we are ingesting processed, low-nutrient dense foods, microwaved or irradiated foods, or chemicals and toxins, and municipal tap water, these can contribute to a weakened immune system, and our defenses to stay well begin to get broken down.

Adding some of the healthy, anti-oxidant rich foods, with a high pH, is a way one can boost the body’s immune system, detoxify the body from acids and toxins, and boost overall health.

Adding healthy, organic spices, herbs, mushrooms, barks, minerals, and essential oils and other natural remedies, is such an easy way to prevent parasites from proliferating or thriving in the body.

I believe at this point in time, it is important to be aware that parasites can be a real problem in health challenges today. So, cleansing our body of parasitical infections is paramount. Whether you believe you might have parasites or not, I believe that what we ingest directly impacts our health. Because of this I believe avoiding refined foods, sugar, artificial additives and sweeteners, junk food, microwaved foods and liquids, irradiated foods and liquids, and all GMO food is a great way to start. I simply avoid buying those foods and I find other ways to eat delicious foods that are organic, healthy, fresh, and in their most natural form.

One thing I have believed in for a very long time, is that “food in our medicine” and what we ingest becomes our cells, tissue, and blood, and thus directly impacts our health.

My closing thought is that I wanted to make you more aware of the prevalence of parasites in our bodies today.

Please research the various cleanses I have listed and choose the one that best suits you.

You might also want to do a parasite test, such as the one Dr. Ardis offers on his website.

Adding more healthy foods and liquids to your diet, could improve your immune system, raise your pH, naturally prevent parasites, and contribute to optimum health.

Education is power stay enlightened and I encourage you to live your life to the fullest.

The post What Are Some Of The Real Health Challenges Today? appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

If you must use a sunscreen, for whatever reason, let’s look at some choices.

Which sunscreens are safe and healthy to use?
Not all are helpful, and many are harmful. Recent studies reveal that some sunscreens can cause a Vitamin D3 deficiency, increase the risk of skin cancer, and kill aquatic life. (1)
So, what do you do about sunscreen if you need to be outside for long periods of time?

How do you pick a safe sunscreen?

Unfortunaley, some sunscreens have carcinogenic ingredients and hormone disrupters that should be avoided: Oxtinoxate, Octisalate, Oxybenzone, Homosalate, Avobenzone, and Retinyl Palmitate (a form of Vitamin A). Be sure to check any sunscreens for these ingredients; they absorb easily through the skin and are toxic when combined with sun exposure. Dr. Elizabeth Plourde, in her research paper “Exposing the Hazards of Sunscreen,” says there is concern that “sunscreen chemicals should be examined in relation to rising autism rates.” If you are interested in this subject, read her paper. (2) She also found that they were the reason coral reefs are dying.  Dr. Plourde found that sunscreens are a major toxin to coral reefs and could be a predominant factor in their decline. When exposed to sunscreens, “Coral dies in 96 hours. Plankton dies, jeopardizing our vital-to-life source of food and oxygen. Fish become intersexed, and some even stop spawning.”

If you are interested in any of these subjects (autism, coral death, etc.),I recommend reading her papers or books. (They are trying to ban these toxic sunscreens fromHawaii, because they are harming the coral reefs and aquatic life.)  Aquatic life is threatened by these toxins in sunscreens. Do not wear them into the water, if you have them on. Wash them off first.

Which Sunscreens Are Safe to Buy? Look for sunscreens that are non-nano, because extremely small particles can penetrate the skin. You want particles so large they cannot penetrate skin.   The Environmental Workers Group (EWG) tested more than 1,500 sunscreens for safety and effectiveness. (3)  The sunscreens listed below is one they compiled as the ones they felt were better, because they contain either zinc oxide or titanium dioxide in some form. (4)

Sunly Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, Unscented Clear Zinc Sunscreen Lotion, SPF 30 Oatmeal Sensitive Natural Mineral Sunscreen Stick, Unscented, SPF 30 Sunly Mineral Sunscreen, Face Stick, Unscented, SPF 30 Well People, Bio Tint Tinted Moisturizer, 14N, SPF 30

I personally don’t wear sunscreen unless it is made of non-toxic essential oils, and then only when I’m at the beach all day long and unable to get under some shade. Another healthy alternative which I use is a new technology by a company called Lifewave, including patches. There are a few things I do with this technology to help protect my skin from sunburn. First, before I go out in the sun, I put on both the X39 and X49 patches. David Schmidt, the inventor of Lifewave, has said that studies show that when these patches are worn together, they not only help protect the body from harmful radiation, which can include too much sun, but also cell phones, and other EMF-emitting devices. (5)

If I do happen to get too much sun, I put on a carnosine patch, which is also beneficial for heart health, the cardiovascular system, and sugar issues. Carnosine is highly effective for tissue repair and speeds healing for burns. I also use the Lifewave Alavida Day and Night Creams to help my skin recover and heal quickly.In addition to all of those things, I drink and eat a lot of plant-based whole, organic food that can provide some natural sun protection. Drinking carrot juice or eating carrots, gives the body some natural sun protection due to beta carotene. (6) The color pigments in fruits and vegetables are the antioxidants. These color pigments (like beta carotene) include carotenoids contributing red, yellow, and orange (carrot, apricot, tomato, orange…) and flavonoids contributing yellow (grapefruit, lemons…). The antioxidants in plants protect the plant from harmful UV damage.  But they also help our bodies when we consume them. Studies show that an antioxidant-rich plant-based diet, high in carotenoids may contribute to life-long protection from harmful UV radiation.(7)I highly recommend that you eat more colorful, organic, fresh fruits and vegetables as a part of your daily dining experience. You will be rewarded with the wonderful health benefits this can bring to you, in so many ways. In conclusion: I believe getting sunshine on your body is healthy, but too much of it, as with anything, can be a problem, for many people. So, try to have some shade near-by or wear a hat or clothing to naturally protect your skin from too much sun. This can be a good way to protect yourself from sunburn without having to worry about toxic sunscreens. I love the sun and the sunshine, but I’m careful not to get burned. Being thoughtful about these things can help keep your body and skin healthy. Have a wonderful time outdoors enjoying the fresh air and sunshine!

The post Thoughts On Sunscreens And Sunshine appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

I consider it our sacred job to support and protect the precious soil and creatures that live here. Butterflies and frogs are indicator species that show how healthy our environment is. If our environment lacks these species, then we need to be very concerned, and we need to take immediate steps to correct it
to make it healthier and less toxic.

For this reason, I do three things I feel are vitally important for the health and well-being of my garden: plant flowers that attract pollinators, avoid using pesticides, and provide clean drinking water for animals.

When I plant my garden every year, I plant fragrant, pollen-rich, and nectar-rich flowers. These will provide safe, nourishing food for butterflies and draw more pollinators to my vegetables, fruits, and herbs. This helps the plants produce more food, and it makes my garden more beautiful to be in.

Now, this is more important than ever, because many GMO plants and hybrid flowers (like the “knock-out roses”) have flowers that have NO Nectar. Currently, at least four species of large bumble bees are now extinct because they quite literally starved to death due to enormous areas full of flowers lacking nectar and pollen. I try my best to support the pollinators in our web of life: bees, hummingbirds, dragonflies, bats, and butterflies.

These fragile creatures do so much for the health of our environment, but they need our support. If you care about this, buy plants for your garden or landscaping that are rich in fragrance, pollen, and nectar. Organic, native heirloom plants are always best. Heirloom plants have been handed down from generation to generation of gardeners in a region, so they have proven to do well in a particular soil and temperature.

If you inter-plant some of the flowering plants with your hedgerows, you will provide additional forage for pollinators of all kinds. Stagger your plantings so there is enough food throughout the year.

Here are seven outstanding, nectar-rich flowering plants that attract butterflies and pollinators to keep your garden lovely, fragrant and environmentally healthy!

1. Butterfly Bush. The butterfly bush is a shrub that produces flowers of white, yellow, pink, and purple. The flower clusters are up to 15 inches long and have a delicate scent that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden. They require partial shade to full sun, and they grow up to eight feet tall. They are deer-resistant. They bloom from midsummer to the first frost.
2. Butterfly Weed. The butterfly weed is a pest-free perennial wildflower which is great for saving time and money. It’s beautiful flowers are orange, red, and yellow. They grow about three feet tall and bloom from spring to early fall. With full sunlight and enough water, this easy-to-grow plant will produce beautiful, nectar-rich flowers. Monarch butterfly larvae prefer this food.
3. Keys of Heaven. Keys of heaven are a brilliant scarlet red plant that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to your garden. This bushy plant grows at least three feet tall and makes a lovely border. It needs full sun. It will grow in early midsummer in hotter climates, and it will bloom all summer in cooler climates.
4. Joe-Pye Weed. The Joe-Pye weed is a large plant with nectar-rich, pink flowers. It is a butterfly favorite. It can produce many seeds that you can replant in more areas of your garden.
5. Sunflowers. Sunflowers come in many varieties. They are extremely easy to grow and are incredibly rich with nectar. They will keep blooming all summer long until the first freeze. They will reseed if you allow them that freedom. The best part is that they will provide beautiful flowers for your home all summer long.
6. Asters. Asters are a perennial flower that brightens up late-summer and fall gardens with its star-shaped blooms. There are more than 175 species found in North America with a huge variety of colors to choose from. They smell divine.
7. Dragon Flower. The dragon flower is an easy-to-grow perennial with gorgeous white or cream-colored flowers. They are very nectar-rich and will attract a wonderful array of life to your garden. The Monarch butterfly is particularly fond of these flowers. If you plant them with dill, which the Monarch butterfly caterpillar loves, you have a fabulous combination to help the Monarch butterfly.

A few more plants to add are marigolds, zinnias, violets, lilies, red penstemon, and crocuses. You can grow berries in your garden, or herbs such as lavender, sage, parsley, and dill. Butterflies love dill for their caterpillars.

I have some of the most beautiful Monarch butterfly caterpillars in my garden when I plant dill amongst my flowers. You can also plant female yaupon holly, poplar trees, and redbud trees.

To make your garden non-toxic and healthier, stop using pesticides! Pesticides kill our pollinators, poison the environment, destroy vital nutrients in the soil and the food we grow, and can cause nerve damage to anyone exposed to them. Their runoff pollutes our water, too.

Avoid using pesticides in your yard or garden.

On the environmental side, the weed killer, Round -Up Ready with the chemical glyphosate in it, has virtually wiped out milkweed in Midwest corn and soybean fields.  This has been a major factor in the dramatic 20-year decline of monarch butterflies that depend on milkweed for food and reproduction.

It’s also important to provide safe, clean drinking water for all the wildlife, including the pollinators. Every living creature needs water to survive.

I put a drip on my birdbath so it has a ripple, which is easy for pollinators and hummingbirds to see. The ripple also prevents mosquitoes from breeding in the water, because mosquitoes only lay eggs in still, standing water.

I also put water on the ground to help the local wild animals have enough water to drink. It’s a web of life, and I try to support all the precious parts of that web that God gave us.

Over the last few decades, a handful of agrichemical giants have acquired 65% of the world’s seed supply, so I highly recommend that you buy organic seeds you like, in bulk, and keep them for your own personal use.

I buy a variety of organic heirloom seeds in bulk to use in my garden, and for growing my sprouts, which I put in my salads.

Here are a few organic, non-GMO seed companies that
I recommend:

Mountain Valley Seed Company 

St. Claire Seeds 

True Leaf Market

Annie’s Heirloom Seeds

Grow Organic

The post Have A Healthy Garden – Seven Plants to Attract Butterflies appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

I co-authored the book  “Alive and Cooking” with my friend
Maryann De Leo. Half of the book is recipes and the other half includes healthy recipes and the other half is filled with health, nutrition, and lifestyle information for older adults and people taking care of elderly parents.

Maryann’s dear friend Chris’s mother (Gladys) was known for her delicious Irish Stew. This is an easy gluten-free recipe that makes about 4 to 6 servings. I thought this might be something you wonderful to prepare for Saint Patrick’s Day.

Ingredients

1 1⁄2 lb. organic grass-fed, humanely raised chuck beef

2 T. organic, pure, unprocessed coconut oil

2 1⁄2 cups tomato sauce

2 1⁄2 c. high-quality water with no chemicals

3 large potatoes

2 medium red onions

3 carrots, sliced

Mineral-rich salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Cut chuck beef into cubes.

2. Heat oil in a pot and add the beef cubes.

3. Brown beef on all sides.

4. Drain off oil/grease.

5. Add tomato sauce and water.

6. When meat is almost cooked, add potatoes, onions, carrots, salt, and pepper, and cook until tender.

Variations:

1. Substitute potatoes with color, (like purple or red skinned, or golden) for white potatoes.

2. I substitute pure, extra-virgin, organic coconut oil for the vegetable oil she had in her recipe for a healthier stew.

NOTE:
ALWAYS buy pure organic coconut oil.
Avoid any type of “Fractionated” Coconut oil. It is a Trans-Fat and is terrible for your health. It is sold as a liquid and many people use it for their essential oils mixer oil.  I would recommend NEVER USING it for ANYTHING!

If you are avoiding taking the drugs Ozempic or Wegovie, I applaud you, because I don’t believe poisoning yourself is a healthy solution for being overweight.

I did a TV interview and discussed some of the “fad” diets.

A friend of mine recently had a stroke. She had been on the Keto Diet for about 2 years. This diet puts your body into starvation mode, so the body begins to use the stored fat of the body for energy, and it helps people lose weight.

I don’t believe that putting the body into “starvation mode” is a healthy thing to do on a continual basis, because it tells the body it is in a “fight or flight” mode, which basically shuts down the immune system.

One problem with this diet is that it really doesn’t address the quality of the food. Also, it recommends a high amount of protein and fat. Many people on this diet are consuming creature protein and fats, instead of quality plant-based protein and healthy fats.

Also, it is the creature foods that can cause ill health and heart attacks, according to the Cleveland Heart Clinic and other research.

The key is to develop a healthy eating plan, with quality food, and a lifestyle that can be sustainable and support your overall health and well-being long term.

Here are five of my slimming secrets:

First of all, include organic vegetables in their natural, raw state. A raw, uncooked vegetable which has been thoroughly chewed and then assimilated will create a set of carbozyme slimming actions.

For fast weight loss, eat the leaves of vegetables, including baby spinach, beet greens, turnip greens, Chinese cabbage, mustard greens, and baby kale. These carbozymes will burn up unwanted fat cells quickly.

Enzymes in raw, organic foods, such as fruits, vegetables, seeds, and nuts act by stabilizing the metabolism, which increases control of the secretory processes. This creates an inhibitory effect on appetite and maintains a normal desire for food. Raw food enzymes soothe the hunger urge and control the gastric secretions, resulting in a decreased desire to overeat.

Secondly, eat a raw vegetable (carrot, bell pepper, or celery) about 10–15 minutes before a meal. Eat and chew it thoroughly.

The carbozymes in raw, organic vegetables will promote the formation of red blood cells, plus stimulate the respiration and nitrogen metabolism of the cell tissues. As a result, this creates better metabolism of protein, normalized blood pressure, corrected pancreatic function, and improved circulation.

This all adds up to better health while slimming down. The carbozymes that the raw vegetables produce alert the metabolism to help cleanse the heavy, weighty molecules that cling to the adipose cell tissues. With this catalyst action, the adipose cells are cleansed of the stored-up fats and calories.

The two recommendations above are the two MAIN things to do. As you do these, try to eat a rainbow of food colors daily. The antioxidants are in the color pigment.

Third, when you eat, take your time. Sit down. Really enjoy and chew your food well. Enzymes need time to help raise your blood sugar. Chewing actually releases properties into the vegetables that are important for health and digestion.

Fourth, try replacing a coffee (caffeine) break with a raw juice or green smoothie break. If hungry, try a glass of pure tomato juice or munch on celery, carrots, or cucumbers.

Fifth, try to have a protein at every meal (including breakfast). In order for enzymes to complete the metabolic process to keep weight off and control your appetite, they need protein. I bet you didn’t know leafy greens are a great source of protein. It is the complex amino acids (which are the building blocks of protein) that your body needs to be healthy, and those are provided by plant-based foods. Spinach is 45% protein.

Vegetables with the highest amount of protein in them are: beans, bean sprouts, green peas, spinach, asparagus, artichokes, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, and broccoli.

In conclusion, slim down by eating delicious, raw, or lightly steamed vegetables, and have more vitality and radiant health!

The post Dr. Bryan Ardis Discusses “The Covid-19 Lies: And How To Restore Health And Hope For Humanity” appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

One day when my children were small, I read about how the innocent Minnie Mouse Bubble Bath I’d just bathed my children in could cause blindness. I was so alarmed. So I started researching and reading ingredients on everything. How could the U.S. government allow toxic and carcinogenic ingredients in our toothpaste, bubble bath, shampoos, and more?

After going through my bathroom cabinets and reading all of the ingredients, I threw out almost everything! Ever since then, my children and I have been extremely careful about what we put on our bodies. Remember, what we put on our skin, our largest organ, is absorbed into the blood stream. Be sure to use safe, toxin-free products.

According to Harvard Health, “The average woman uses 12 different beauty products every day — cleansers, conditioners, hair dyes, fragrances, skin care products, scented lotions, nail polish, and makeup, to name a few. Take a quick glance at the labels, and you’ll see a cocktail of chemical components. You might assume that all these ingredients have been tested to ensure that they’re safe for long-term use. That’s not the case.

At least on the federal level, no one is checking to make sure that the chemicals you’re putting on your body are harmless. “Products are tested to make sure they don’t cause short-term problems, such as skin irritation. But they’re not tested for long-term safety,” says Dr. Kathryn M. Rexrode, associate professor of medicine and chief of the Division of Women’s Health at Harvard Medical School.
The FDA steps in only if people actually complain about a product because they suspect it harmed them. Prior to that, the onus is on the company alone.(1)

According to the Environmental Workers Group, EWG, ” The average fragrance product tested contained 14 secret chemicals not listed on the label. Among them are chemicals associated with hormone disruption and allergic reactions, and many substances that have not been assessed for safety in personal care products.
 
Also in the ranks of undisclosed ingredients are chemicals with troubling hazardous properties or with a propensity to accumulate in human tissues. These include diethyl phthalate, a chemical found in 97 percent of Americans (Silva 2004) and linked to sperm damage in human epidemiological studies (Swan 2008), and musk ketone, a synthetic fragrance ingredient that concentrates in human fat tissue and breast milk (Hutter 2009; Reiner 2007).”(2)

Here are some ingredients to look out for that might be on the label:

DEA or Diethanolamine. This ingredient is used in many household and personal products such as shampoo, bubble bath, lotions, and detergents for laundry or dishwashing. DEA is a known toxin in industrial applications, now proven to cause cancer when applied to the skin of rats. Dr. Samuel Epstein, author of The Safe Shopper’s Bible and founder of The American Coalition to Prevent Cancer, is a leading authority on toxicology. He issued a strong warning about the use of cocamide DEA or lauramide DEA. Many products contain these ingredients and simply don’t have warnings on them. (3)

Propylene Glycol. This main ingredient in antifreeze and hydraulic fluids is used as a solvent. It’s also found in pet food, lotions, shampoos, toothpastes, deodorants, processed foods, and more. A colorless, hygroscopic liquid, it has been tested by the American Academy of Dermatologists and found to cause skin irritation at low levels. It can be harmful if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed into the skin. It can also cause nausea, headaches, central nervous system depression, eye irritation, skin irritation, and gastrointestinal disturbances.

SLS or Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. This is found in detergents, concrete cleaners, engine degreasers, and more. It’s used in clinical studies to irritate skin tissue. It corrodes hair follicles and impairs the ability to grow hair. When combined with other nitrogen-bearing ingredients, carcinogenic nitrates can form. SLS enters (and maintains residual levels) in the heart, liver, lungs, and brain from skin contact. (4)

Talc. Talcum powder is a mineral made up mainly of the elements silicon, magnesium, and oxygen. Talc is similar to asbestos and “may result in fallopian tube fibrosis with resultant infertility,” according to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). “Talc’s harmful effect on human tissue has been known for quite some time. Long ago, its dry lubricating properties were used as a glove-donning powder (easy to glide on) for surgical gloves. As early as the 1930s, talc was linked to post-operative granulomatous peritonitis and fibrous adhesions.” (5)

Alcohol. This ingredient is used in many mouthwashes. “Mouthwashes with a content of 25 percent or higher have been implicated in mouth, tongue, and throat cancers.” (6)

A healthy solution for your mouthwash is at the Health Ranger Store. They offer several choices for healthy mouthwashes that don’t destroy your immune system.

Another mouthwash I have used is a combination of antiviral and antibacterial essential oils which has historically been called “Thieves.” It’s a blend of cinnamon, clove, lemon, eucalyptus, and rosemary oils. That is a handy formula that can be used to disinfect and sanitize without harming the immune system.

The name Thieves came from a band of spice traders who would cover themselves with this oil combination and then rob dead people’s bodies who had died during the Black Plague. They contributed never getting the plague to their use of these oils. (7) Note: Weber State University tested the oils and found it had a 99.96 percent removal rate of toxic airborne bacteria. (8)

In conclusion, use body care products with all non-chemical, non-toxic ingredients. Even though many of the ingredients may not be listed on the label, I do recommend taking the time to read ingredient labels, use your common sense and be savvy about protecting you and your family from harmful chemicals in your daily life.

The post Healthy Body Care Products And Ingredients To Avoid appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

During my work with people who have diabetes, I have found that they show remarkable improvement in their health and well-being from consuming a plant-based and almost completely raw-food diet. Dr. Gabriel Cousens promotes a mostly raw food, vegan diet for his Diabetic patients who would like to reduce their medications.

After they complete the program, they understand that the type of food they eat has a direct impact on their health. (2) In 2014, Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy published a study in which researchers performed a meta-analysis of six significant prior research studies. Researchers found that a plant-based diet significantly improved blood sugar control in Type 2 diabetes.

The results were that plant-based diets improved a key indicator of blood sugar control, an indicator called Hemoglobin A1c. The results improved as much as 1.2 points, which is much greater than the effect of typical oral diabetes medications. (3)

The benefits of excluding meat, cheese, and eggs from the diet was as much as 0.7 points in some of the studies, and averaged 0.4 points overall. (4)

Dr. James Anderson studied 25 Type 1 and 25 Type 2 diabetics. This study involved placing the patients on a high-fiber, high-carbohydrate, low- fat diet in a hospital setting. Dr. Anderson initially put the patients on the American Diabetes Association recommended diet plan for one week. Then he switched them over to a vegetarian, plant-based diet for three weeks.

None of these patients were overweight when they started the study, but they were on insulin shots to control their blood sugar levels. All through the study, Dr. Anderson measured their blood sugar levels, their cholesterol levels, their medications, and their weight. Type 1 diabetics cannot produce insulin, and it was thought that dietary changes would not affect this situation. But, the results showed that after three weeks on a vegetarian, whole-food, high-fiber diet, the “Type 1 diabetics were able to lower their insulin medication by an average of 40%”, “their blood sugar profiles improved dramatically”. (5)

These results were more impressive with the Type 2 diabetics who had not incurred as much damage to their pancreas. After three weeks on the high-fiber, vegetarian diet, 24 of the 25 Type 2 diabetics could discontinue their insulin medication completely.

The one Type 2 diabetic who wasn’t able to get off his medication had been a 25-year diabetic taking 35 units per day. After three weeks of vegetarian food, his requirement dropped down to only eight units per day. As he continued the vegetarian eating plan at home, he was able to cut out all insulin shots after another eight weeks. (6)

Studies have shown that eating more plant- based whole food increases your dietary fiber intake. This can be extremely important to “protect from the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer, some gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, obesity, and non-insulin-dependent diseases. Furthermore, increasing fiber intake provides therapeutic advantages for the management of high blood lipids, certain gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes”. (7)

Besides adopting a plant-based diet, diabetics can take six important dietary food supplements to regulate their blood sugar and support their health:

1. Chromium
2. Cinnamon
3. Omega-3 Fatty-acids
4. Vitamin D
5. Zinc
6. Unrefined, Mineral-rich Salt

The mineral chromium helps transport glucose from the blood to the muscles. According to the National Institutes of Health, “Chromium is known to enhance the action of insulin, a hormone critical to the metabolism and storage of carbohydrates, fat, and protein in the body.” (8)

People who eat non-organic foods have a greater likelihood of being deficient in this important trace mineral. The chemical fertilizers used in industrial farming destroy chromium that would naturally be in the soil. This is one of many reasons organic food is always the best choice at the grocery store.

Chromium supplements should have GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) on the label. It should say, “Chromium GTF”. Avoid synthetic supplements that don’t list whole, organic foods as the ingredients.

Cinnamon is emerging as a true wonder food. Cinnamon is a spice, and it’s obtained from the inner bark of a few tree species. Research shows that cinnamon can help lower blood sugar, and triglyceride levels in people with Type 2 diabetes.

Cinnamon contains antioxidants that create healthier arteries and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Cinnamon can also benefit us with increased alertness and energized senses. Even a teaspoon a day helps tame blood sugar levels.

Ceylon cinnamon is the best cinnamon to use. Cassia, Saigon, and Chinese cinnamon contain five percent coumarin, which is problematic for the liver. Ceylon cinnamon has only .0004 percent coumarin. Sprinkle it on your morning toast, oatmeal, or other dishes.

Omega-3 fatty acids are healthy fats our bodies cannot make and must obtain from food.

Studies show that adding omega-3 to your diet promotes healthy blood sugar levels. Try adding cold-pressed, organic flax or hemp seed oil to your smoothies and other foods, like oatmeal chia seed pudding in the morning.

Vitamin D (known as the sunshine vitamin) is a prohormone; that is, a fat-soluble vitamin. It is in a family of compounds that includes Vitamins D-1, D-2, and D-3. These vitamins can affect as many as 2,000 genes in the body.

Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine studied the medical information of 124 subjects between the ages of 36 and 89 with Type 2 diabetes. Those with the lowest levels of Vitamin D had the highest levels of blood sugar. Only six percent of the subjects were taking a Vitamin D supplement. You may need to address a possible Vitamin D deficiency. I supplement my Vitamin D intake with a whole-food, organic, raw multi- vitamin.

Zinc is one of the most important minerals used by the body. It helps with the production of approximately 100 enzymes. Zinc contributes to building up the immune system. Zinc is required for protein and DNA synthesis, insulin activity, and liver function.

Zinc is not really stored in our bodies, so we need a regular supply. Men need about one-third more zinc than women, because the prostate gland and semen are highly concentrated with zinc. A zinc deficiency may appear as skin problems, impairment of taste, a poor immune system, hair loss, diarrhea, fatigue, wounds not healing properly, or a poor or slow growth rate for infants.

Even if you eat zinc-rich foods, you may need a supplement, because phytic acid and dietary fiber in certain foods can inhibit the absorption of zinc. If you take a vitamin supplement of any kind (such as a multi-vitamin, Vitamin D, chromium, or zinc), make sure it is in a natural form, not a synthetic one. Synthetic forms of any nutrient can be harmful to the body (9). Instead, buy dietary supplements that show whole, organic foods in their ingredient list.

Unrefined mined salt promotes the proper balance for the endocrine, adrenal, and thyroid glands to function properly. It supports healthy blood pressure, detoxifies the body, and—along with water—is necessary for the optimal functioning of the immune system, hormonal system, and cardiovascular health. (10)

Dr. David Brownstein says low-salt diets “promote toxicity” and have: …adverse effects on numerous metabolic markers, including promoting elevated insulin levels and insulin resistance. Finally, low-salt diets will lead to mineral deficiencies and the development of chronic disease.(11)

In conclusion, you can see that diet is a huge factor in curing or managing diabetes, and also preventing many diseases that diabetes often leads to, including blindness, amputation, stroke, and heart disease.

Additionally, it can prevent having to take insulin injections for the rest of your life.

My award-winning book, “Diabetes and your Diet,” can be an extremely helpful resource for you. The book includes nutrition information and recipes, and is available in large print and audio.

It’s a personal decision that no one can make for you. I always feel it is so powerful when someone finally decides to take control of their health and well-being, and chooses to make the necessary changes. It all starts with making that decision and taking action to execute it.

Contact me if I can help you in any way.

The post Diet Can Be A Powerful Treatment For Diabetes appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

So,  my answer is: This is a very important subject to address.

If your body is not eliminating wastes efficiently after each meal, there may be some blockage in the intestinal tract. This can be a serious health problem which should be addressed immediately. I feel most health problems are a result of the blockages in the intestinal tract.

Anyone who has been a consumer of processed foods, fried foods, trans fats, or meat may have blockages, plaque, or debris lodged in the colon. After years and years of eating meals that have not been completely digested or moved out of the body, layers and layers of waste have possibly built up in the intestinal tract.

The intestinal tract is where you are supposed to absorb most of your nutrition, and it’s where a major part of the immune system resides. If this is blocked up, the immune system is not able to work effectively and you may not be able to absorb the nutrition you need.

Natalia Rose, a New York clinical nutritionist, says that if you wake up in the morning, have a bowel movement, pull in your gut, and it is almost to your spine, then you have an empty and clean intestine. If you cannot do this, then your intestines are full of undigested waste stuck in the tissues like cement.

Master colon therapist Gil Jacobs explains that a laxative will do nothing for the normal person who is eating fairly well, except release the very newest waste, and then drive the older waste deeper into the tissue and make it harder to remove. The laxative will irritate the bowels.

Both Gil Jacobs and Natalia Rose believe in colonic cleansing, and they recommend the gravity method. The client reclines in a large chair, and a small quantity of warm water is very slowly introduced into the colon by a narrow tube. Then the water (and hopefully some built up waste) runs out of the colon, being released through a tube and directly into the plumbing. The hydrotherapist answers questions, guiding or assisting whenever needed.

Having a colonic is actually very easy. The water cleanses the walls of the intestine. Each time a colonic is done, another layer of plaque or waste can be washed out of the lining of the colon.

People sometimes say, “I got a colonoscopy, and they said my colon is fine.”

I feel I need to address a few differences between what I consider a healthy method called a colonics and a medical procedure called a colonoscopy.

A colonoscopy doesn’t clean out the colon. It doesn’t pull out the toxins or plaque embedded in the lining of the intestines. It is like a bullet going through the barrel of a gun.

In fact, there are risks and dangers with getting a colonoscopy.

Did you know it is IMPOSSIBLE to completely sterilize a colonoscope?

Colonoscopies destroy the bacterial flora that balance the microorganisms in your colon. The average colon in a human body, contains 3 – 4 pounds of bacteria, most of which consists of good, healthy bacteria. The colonoscopy preparation procedure actually strips your colon of all of its good, protective bacteria.

1 in every 350 colonoscopies end up doing serious harm. The death rate is about 1 for every 1,000 procedures. With 15 million colonoscopies being done each year in the U.S., that means about 15,000 Americans die as a result of this routine procedure.

Getting back to the subject of being constipated and the numerous health problems that can arise from that situation, I see a colonic as a safer and healthier method to remedy that situation quickly and more effectively than pharmaceutical drugs or laxatives.

A colonic actually washes out the debris, plaque, and whatever else is stuck in the layers of the intestinal wall.

Colonics are recommended for people with a high degree of inflammation, constipation, and/or plaque in their colon. Some people find it so useful that they continue to do it once a month or more just to stay clean.

Gil and Natalia say that a person who grew up eating a standard American diet of bread, meat, trans fats, sugar, and junk food could get a colonic every week for the rest of his or her life, and still not have one-hundred percent of the waste completely removed from the colon. But the more waste that is removed, the healthier you will be.

Dr. Ed Group states that a colonic only cleans out the large intestines, where as the small intestines is the most important part to clean out. He recommends the Oxypowder, which is a formulation by Nikola Tesla and it is sold by Global Healing. You can listen to Dr. Group here on my weekly podcast in July 2024. I will say, I have recommended it to many of my clients who struggle with this situation and it has worked quickly and gotten them regular and in much better health easily.

One thing I highly recommend for daily health and also for constipation relief, is drinking a large glass of warm mineral-rich water every morning as soon as you get up, before doing anything else. This will help hydrate you and assist moving any toxins and waste out of the body.

An important subject to note, is that a raw food diet will awaken the body and help get waste out. The raw food is more likely to be completely or close to completely digested. Your body will start to cleanse itself of toxins because of the antioxidant-rich food and fiber.

When the colon and the rest of the intestinal tract are cleaned up and running free and clear, the whole body will start to work in harmony.

Many people will find that their joint problems, headaches, back aches, skin problems, and hair problems simply disappear when they finally get their colon and intestines clean and oxygenated.

Natalia Rose also recommends enemas as another way to remove waste from the bowels. They can work well and get waste to come out of the tissues.

Additionally, Gil and Natalia recommend putting a small step stool in front of the toilet. If you put your feet on the small stool when using the toilet, your intestinal tract has a better curve, making it much easier to move waste through the tract.

Also, recently I learned about Oxypowder – a supplement developed by Nikola Tesla, of a specific type of magnesium formulation, that Tesla’s personal assistant gave to Dr. Ed Group. Dr. Group worked on it and make Oxypowder. I have found it to be incredibly helpful for my clients who were struggling with constipation. It is incredibly effective and healthy. Here is a link for Global Healing, Dr. Ed Group’s company that makes it.

In conclusion, keep your intestinal tract and colon clean and your whole body will operate more effectively, and your health will benefit in many ways.

The post Remedy For Constipation & Irregularity – For Your Well-being appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) was discovered in 1908 by Japanese chemist Kikunae Ikeda. Professor Ikeda was trying to isolate a chemical in seaweed: kombu, a flavor enhancer. What he came up with was glutamic acid combined with a sodium molecule, which resulted in MSG.

The component glutamate, or glutamic acid, is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter in the brain. These neurotransmitters in the brain are normal, but when there is an excess of them, cells will be over-stimulated and die.

According to neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock’s book Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills, these excitotoxins will stimulate neurons in the brain until the neurons die as a result. This causes various degrees of brain damage, according to Dr. Blaylock. Children and infants are especially vulnerable to this chemical.

Professor Ikeda’s new product was a huge hit because it enhanced the flavor of food. The Japanese used it in many foods, including the food rations they gave to US prisoners of war. The US military was curious about why the American soldiers loved the food rations they received as prisoners of the Japanese. After the US military found out about MSG in 1948, the US Armed Forces met with the largest food companies in the United States and discussed how MSG could be added to various food products.

MSG has since been added to almost all processed foods, including the sweeteners NutraSweet and aspartame. It is found in foods at almost all fast-food restaurants and other restaurants you might not suspect. MSG has become such a huge part of the food industry because it works on the brain as a pleasure trigger, making you think food tastes better. So, food that normally tastes bland may taste great with MSG added to it. The diet food industry has especially benefited from using MSG.

However, MSG can send pleasure impulses to the brain until it kills that part of the brain. Dr. Blaylock has tried for many years to educate people about the toxicity of this additive in our food supply.

The FDA has no limit on how much MSG can be added to food. Theoretically, in children, the long-term effects can be attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, and other learning disabilities. In adults, conditions such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and Lou Gehrig’s disease, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune disease, sleep disorders, migraines, and the inability to lose weight may be linked to excitotoxin damage. Over the years, more and more MSG has been added to foods.

Hydrolyzed proteins, also used as flavor enhancers, are proteins that have been chemically broken down into amino acids. When they are digested, the result can be the creation of free glutamate, which joins with free sodium in the body to form MSG. This means that while the ingredient label will list only “hydrolyzed protein,” the effect on the body is the same as if the product contained MSG.

Free glutamate can cause the body to react as if a drug had stimulated the nervous system. It can affect insulin metabolism, leading to excessive insulin secretion by the pancreas. Some common symptoms of a reaction to free glutamate are anxiety attacks, asthma-like symptoms, attention deficit disorder, burning sensations, carpal tunnel syndrome, chest pains, depression, diarrhea, disorientation and confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, flushing, gastric distress, headaches and migraines, hyperactivity in children, infertility and other endocrine problems, insomnia, irregular or rapid heartbeat, joint pain, mood swings, mouth lesions, nausea and vomiting, numbness of parts of the body such as the fingertips, seizures, shortness of breath, skin rash, slurred speech, stomachaches, tremors, and weakness.

In my travels around the world, I found MSG in many foods you would not normally expect. My daughter was living in a remote village in Mali, Africa when she was in the Peace Corps. Someone from a corporation had been there and convinced the villagers that if they didn’t use this “spice” called MSG in their food, then it wouldn’t taste good. The villagers would sell their healthy fresh produce from their meager gardens of garlic, onions, and tomatoes to get money to buy this “spice.” I was simply horrified at this situation.

Then, when my daughter was working with the United Nations on trials of the Khmer Rouge in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, I went to spend the holidays with her. I took cooking classes there and in Thailand. The teachers informed us of the incredible amount of MSG used extensively throughout Cambodia, and I found the same in Thailand. People use it in restaurants and in their home-cooked food. Be aware of the extensive use of this chemical, no matter where you are in the world. You may think MSG is not used in non-Asian restaurants today, but it is prevalent in almost all restaurants. You will want to ask.

Here is a partial list of hidden sources of MSG that Dr. Blaylock includes in his book Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills. Some of the ingredients aren’t MSG when they are put in food, but they create MSG when they touch saliva.

Many of these look just like “normal” food ingredients. Many of them are added to alternative meat products sold as vegetarian foods. That is why it is becoming more and more important for your health to buy whole, fresh foods and make meals yourself.

Additives that always contain MSG:

• Monosodium glutamate

• Hydrolyzed vegetable protein

• Hydrolyzed protein

• Hydrolyzed plant protein

• Plant protein extract

• Yeast extract

• Textured protein

• Autolyzed yeast

• Hydrolyzed oat flour

Additives that frequently contain MSG:

• Malt flavoring and/or extract

• Bouillon

• Broth

• Stock

• Flavoring

• Natural flavoring

• Seasoning

• Spices

Additives that may contain MSG or excitotoxins:

• Enzymes

• Soy protein concentrate or isolate

• Whey protein concentrate

The post MSG – Monosodium Glutamate – Food Additive – What Is It & What Does It Do? appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Refined carbohydrates like white, refined flour, pasta, and bakery goods have no or little fiber and are (for the majority) nutrient-empty.

There is a difference in the way refined carbohydrates and unrefined carbohydrates are converted into glucose by the body. Refined carbohydrates are converted to glucose quickly, which causes blood sugar to spike. This makes the body work hard to get the blood sugar level under control. It puts pressure on the pancreas to make and release insulin, which works “like a key to open the door of the cells so glucose. . . can come inside and be converted into energy.”[i]

If too many refined carbohydrates are eaten on a continual basis, driving up blood sugar levels, this will stress the pancreas and eventually it will have trouble making insulin. This can result in diabetes.

The body stores excess glucose in the muscle to use later, but if the muscle is fully saturated, as a result of this, the body will also turn the excess glucose into fat. This can result in weight gain and obesity. Carrying too much fat can lead to glucose intolerance. The body will start ignoring the signal to take glucose from the blood.

To process nutrient-empty, refined food, the body must pull nutrients from itself. The spiking of blood sugar from refined and empty food results in cravings, because when the body is not getting the nutrients it needs, it will start begging for nutrients.

On the other hand, feeding the body with nutrient-dense food gives it what it needs, and there shouldn’t be any cravings.

Because unrefined carbohydrates are fiber-rich, they take longer to digest. This means they do not put additional pressure on the pancreas to produce insulin in an unhealthy way. Unrefined carbohydrates, such as whole grains, should be a major part of a well-balanced diet.

Packaging can be very deceiving and misleading. When looking at a package that says “whole wheat” or “whole-grain,” read the ingredient list and make sure it says “whole” before every grain listed. If the ingredient list contains just the name of the grain, then it is not whole-grain.

My research shows me that it is much better for our health to consume sprouted grains in place of simply eating the whole grains. So, I always look for organic, “sprouted” whole-grain breads, like Ezekiel or Alvarado Bakery breads when I am buying breads at the grocery store.

According to Secinaro, for Harvard Health, Sprouted grains have many health benefits. According to her, “This germinating process breaks down some of the starch, which makes the percentage of nutrients higher. It also breaks down phytate, a form of phytic acid that normally decreases absorption of vitamins and minerals in the body. So sprouted grains have more available nutrients than mature grains,” Secinaro says. Those nutrients include folate, iron, vitamin C, zinc, magnesium, and protein. Sprouted grains also may have less starch and be easier to digest than regular grains. “It may help people who are sensitive to digesting grains.”

I believe that sprouting the whole grains or seeds, that this helps people digest the grains or breads more effectively and with less digestion issues, like gas or bloating.

If you are buying gluten-free products, make sure they are sprouted and whole-grain, and check the sugar content. I have found that even in the seemingly healthiest packages at the “healthy grocery stores,” the gluten-free foods are alarmingly high in sugar. It is extremely important to find ones that are low in added sugar.

It’s all about quality!

In closing, I recommend looking for breads with low sugar content, avoiding breads with canola oil, vegetable oils (like soy, corn, or cotton seed oils), and enjoying the organic, sprouted, whole-grain carbohydrate-types of foods in moderation, and they can benefit your health!

Bon Appetit!

The post Refined Carbohydrates Versus Whole Sprouted Grains appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

I believe that everyone wants to be radiantly healthy. Our skin reflects our health and is the first impression people have of us when we meet, so it’s no surprise that many of us want to have the best and healthiest skin possible. Every 2 to 4 weeks, our skin replaces itself and our body makes new cells from the food we eat. I consider food to be my medicine, and as it becomes our cells, tissue and blood, it is only logical to try to eat the best foods for skin health and overall well-being.

Good nutrition is the fundamental key to protecting the cells of our skin on a cellular level. I feel the body is amazing, and it can do miraculous things if given the right tools. Making the decision to eat healthier can be the way to rejuvenate the skin and your overall health.

I want to age gracefully and have my skin look as youthful as possible, and I’ve researched this topic considerably. I believe it’s a combination of things that helps us look and feel our best, including our skin. Getting enough sleep, exercise, reducing stress, staying hydrated, consuming a whole, fresh, antioxidant-rich diet, and using non-toxic body care lotions and soaps all play a part in our skin health and appearance.

Here are 7 of my top choices for the best foods for healthy skin:

1. Foods with Omega-3 fatty acids can help with more youthful looking skin, because they contain the crucial nutrients needed to help repair damaged skin cells. Their anti-inflammatory properties may lead to smoother, younger-looking skin and a reduction of inflammatory skin conditions like acne or psoriasis. Some of the top sources for omega-3’s are: cold-pressed, organic hemp or flax seed oil, hemp seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and certain fish like sardines, salmon, mackerel, tuna, anchovies, and black cod.

2. Foods rich in Vitamin A, C and E will provide the antioxidants that can help protect the cells from free radicals that can damage skin and cause wrinkles. Organic, fresh, and unprocessed food will provide the most nutrition. Always consume fruits in their whole form with the fiber, and never drink pure or processed fruit juice. (Fruit juice goes straight into the bloodstream too quickly, and it’s much better to have the fiber of the whole fruit to slow down the sugar.)

a. Vitamin A – rich foods include: apricots, Goji berries, Acai berries, butternut squash, carrots, cantaloupe, leafy greens (especially kale, Swiss Chard, romaine, as well as sprouts and wheat grass), mangoes, pumpkin, sweet potato, spinach, and tomatoes. (Not only are tomatoes high in Vitamin A, but they are also high in lycopene, which can act as a natural sun protection and help prevent sun damage to the skin. In a study, “Volunteers who consumed 5 tablespoons of high-in-lycopene tomato paste daily for 3 months had nearly 25% more protection against sunburn. Even better, skin had more collagen, which prevents sagging. German scientists report that higher skin levels of this antioxidant correlate to fewer fine lines and furrows).”

b. Vitamin C – rich foods include: apricots, Goji berries, blueberries, strawberries, bilberries, cranberries, raspberries, grapes, oranges, grapefruits, papayas, strawberries, kiwis, red, yellow and orange bell peppers, cantaloupes, tomatoes, broccoli, mangoes, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, leafy greens (including kale), sprouts, and wheat grass.

c. Vitamin E – rich foods include: avocado, sprouted nuts (examples: almond, Brazil, pine, hazelnuts), sprouted seeds (like sunflower seeds), olives, raw red sweet pepper, turnip greens, spinach, asparagus, mango, kiwi, wheat germ and wheat grass. (Sprouted seeds and nuts makes them easier to digest and more nutrient dense. I explain more about this in my nutrition/cookbooks).

3. Wheatgrass has many benefits, either taken internally or used topically. Wheatgrass is the young grass shoot of the common wheat plant, which is commonly taken as a juice. It can be taken in a capsule or tablet form as well. You may want to ease into taking wheatgrass, because it is such a powerful food.

Wheatgrass juice is a great detoxifier, but if it’s consumed too much too quickly or with a meal, it may make you feel nauseous or headachy. So, start off slowly and add a little more to your diet gradually as you can.

I recommend starting with one ounce a day and slowly adding a bit more to your the diet as you get used to it. Take wheatgrass on an empty stomach or in addition to fresh fruits and vegetables. (I take mine first thing in the morning with a dash of Ceylon Cinnamon and a pinch of mineral-rich pink salt. I think it makes it taste better and also adds some health benefits.)

You can also use the wheat grass in your non-chlorinated bath water or put it on your skin topically as a wash in it’s purest form. It’s been shown to help detoxify the cells, oxygenate the blood, and have antiviral effects. In addition to this, wheat grass has been researched and found to help with lowering the risk of various cancers.

Wheatgrass juice is an excellent source of concentrated chlorophyll (rich in antioxidants), Vitamins A, C, and E, as well as containing about 98 of 102 of the earth elements found in soil (which include phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, selenium, iron, and potassium), electrolytes, 19 amino acids and powerful enzymes.

Wheatgrass juice is a powerhouse of nutrition.

4. Walnuts – are high in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, as well as alpha-linolenic acid. The alpha-linolenic acid helps keep the skin moist and supple. Walnuts also have been found to help with sleep. Getting enough sleep is great for healthy skin. Our body rests and heals when it is truly resting at night in a deep sleep. Researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center discovered that walnuts contain melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep.

I recommend buying organic, sprouted, raw walnuts. Sprouting nuts removes the phytic acid. This removes the enzyme inhibitors and makes them more digestible.

5. Cacao – Yes, you can eat dark chocolate for your skin’s health! Cacao is one of the highest antioxidant and flavonoid-containing foods. It is wonderful at improving circulation, and is a great source of flavonols, which is a group of plant metabolites that have excellent antioxidant effects. These flavonols can fight against skin damage. Flavonoids also fight free radicals (molecules that have lost an electron and attack the DNA, enzymes and proteins or cell membranes) in the bloodstream.

Women who drank 1/2 cup of “dark cacao” cocoa every day for 12 weeks in a study had significantly softer, smoother, and better hydrated skin. The British study had the volunteers consume an 8-ounce cup of cocoa, and found that they had improved blood flow to the brain for 2 hours. Besides better functioning on complex tasks, participants also showed more brain activity in MRI scans–an indication of enhanced brain function that may reduce the risk of dementia.

6. Avocado – is a super powerhouse food! This fruit is packed with nutritional benefits and has a delicious creamy rich flavor. What could be better? Avocados contain monounsaturated fat, which is a “good fat.” According to the Harvard School of Public Health, “Unsaturated fats are called good fats because they can ease inflammation, stabilize heart rhythms, and play a number of other beneficial roles.”

Healthy fat, like the fat in avocados, is essential for every cell in our body. It can support our brain, boost our immune system, increase our nutrient absorption and best of all, it can create a glowing complexion.

7. Coconut – (including the meat, water, and oil) can be used in many ways as a food, lotion and beverage. Talk about a health food… coconut oil is one of my favorites.

Coconut oil contains a high amount of saturated fats, but these are very different from the saturated fats that come from creature meats. The saturated fat of coconut oil contains Medium-Chain Triglycerides. These medium-chained fatty acids are absorbed differently by the body. These fatty acids go straight to the liver from the digestive tract and are then turned into ketone bodies. These ketones have a therapeutic effect on the brain, by allowing the brain to absorb glucose from the bloodstream. Coconut oil has been studied for its positive effect on brain disorders like epilepsy and Alzheimer’s.

Coconut water also has Cytokinins, kinetin and trans-zeatin, which have antithrombotic, anti-carcinogenic and anti-aging effects on the body. Coconut water is delicious, and can be a good alternative to drinking regular water.

I cook with coconut oil, add it to my recipes and use it as a body lotion. Topically, coconut oil is able to penetrate your skin on a deeper level, and thus it helps create richly nourished radiant skin. If you have a problem with dry skin, using coconut oil as your body lotion is a very effective remedy. Coconut oil is very stable and will be either hard or more liquid depending on the temperature. If it’s hard, simply rub the coconut oil in your hands to warm it up and smooth it over your body and any dry, rough areas. Avoid fractionated coconut oil (a coconut oil that is always liquid), as it is a trans-fat.

Conclusion

So, now that you have an idea of the best food for your skin and overall health and well-being, let’s get you started on your rejuvenation-eating plan. The following recipe is a delicious and satisfying smoothie that packs a powerhouse of nutrition and feeds your skin. Prepare to become radiantly healthy!

The post 7 Anti-Aging Foods That Will Help Your Skin Glow With Health (No Spa Required!) appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Receptors that respond to the vitamin have been found in almost every type of human cell, from your brain to your bones. It is also involved in multiple repair and maintenance functions. It touches thousands of different genes. It regulates your immune system, and much, much more. Vitamin D regulates your ability to fight infections and chronic inflammation. It produces over 200 antimicrobial peptides. (1)

Vitamin D is a prohormone, which means the body converts it into an active form named calcitriol. A deficiency of calcitriol may be responsible for more than autoimmune disease, multiple sclerosis, osteoarthritis, hypertension/high blood pressure, diabetes, depression, genetic disorders, and more than 17 types of cancer. It may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.(2)

Rickets (bone softening) is a disease caused by Vitamin D deficiency. Sounds a lot like osteoporosis, doesn’t it? If you have a bone problem, have your Vitamin D checked. Vitamin D deficiency has also been linked to cancer. Check with your physician to make certain the level of Vitamin D in your blood is optimal.

The body makes its own Vitamin D from cholesterol when your skin is exposed to sunlight. Vitamin D is essential for everyone, not just vegetarians. According to Dr. Elizabeth Plourde, if you wear sunscreen, the sunscreen blocks that process.

Studies show approximately 85 percent of the US population is critically low in Vitamin D. (3) It may be the use of sunscreen or it may be working and staying indoors most of the day which prevents people from getting enough direct sunlight on their skin and therefore getting that necessary Vitamin D.

Get some sunshine! Get out in the sun every day for at least 20 minutes without sunscreen. The more skin that is exposed, the more sunlight you can absorb. During the winter months, it may be harder or even impossible to get the necessary amount of Vitamin D from the sun. Full-spectrum lighting indoors can significantly help with depression, mood, and health, but it is not a substitute for real Vitamin D from the sun or quality Vitamin D supplements.

Very few foods contain good levels of Vitamin D. Parsley, mushrooms that have been exposed to ultraviolet light, fortified orange juice, some milk, and cod liver oil have Vitamin D in them, but a supplement is still needed. Cod liver oil is the food with the highest concentration of Vitamin D, but for vegetarians and vegans this is not an acceptable way to ingest the vitamin.

The Institute of Medicine’s Food and Nutrition Board sets the RDA for Vitamin D at 600 IU (800 IU for people over 70). Many doctors think this is far too low. (4) Dr. Joseph Mercola writes: Heather Chappell of the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) has stated that the organization will not lower their recommendations—which is currently 1,000 IUs per day, based on the Vitamin D cancer research done by Dr. Heaney and Dr. Lappé—because the IOM recommendations cover bone health only… Bone health depends at least as much on Vitamin D as on calcium… And the CCS is still concerned about Vitamin D deficiency and cancer. (5)

On Science News, Janet Raloff asked: How much Vitamin D do studies suggest most US residents need? Probably at least 1,000 IU per day, Dr.’s Holick and Heaney agree. Indeed, Heaney concludes in his October paper… a minimum daily intake of some 2,600 IU of Vitamin D per day would be needed to meet the needs of 97 percent of US residents. (6)

According to Dr. J Leonard Lichtenfeld, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer for the American Cancer Society, Americans continue to wait for more randomized control trials before addressing their Vitamin D deficiencies, even though a large number of epidemiology studies indicate Vitamin D deficiency is a common finding in people of all age groups around the world.

I had a friend whose back started to hurt so badly he could barely stand it. Months later, after excruciating pain and unbelievable amounts of testing, they found he was critically low in Vitamin D. With some intense Vitamin D supplementation, he started to feel much better and is now back to his healthy state of being.

I get an abundant amount of sunlight every day, and I live in Texas, so I thought I had an optimum level of Vitamin D in my body. I had my doctor test me, only to find out I was on the low end of optimum. This was even during the summer, so I was quite surprised! I now take around 5000 – 6000 IUs of Vitamin D a day, especially in the winter.

Please be sure to get your maximum levels of Vitamin D intake daily. If you have a darker skin pigment or you over 50, you will actually need even more Vitamin D to keep your body strong and healthy.

In closing, dance in the sunlight and your keep your body strong and healthy!

The post Vitamin D And Your Health appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

The food we eat and the physical environment we live in causes us to accumulate toxins, which limits our physical stamina and impairs our immune system. If we are clogged up and holding toxins in our bodies, we can’t absorb nutrients properly and digestion is hindered.

This might lead to constipation, bloating, gas, headaches, bad breath, allergy symptoms, PMS, depression, frequent infections, dull skin, thinning hair, and weight gain. These are all good reasons to detoxify and cleanse ourselves!

There are a few different ways to do this, and one of the best ways is to add more fiber to our diets. The average American diet contains about 10 grams of fiber a day, but in reality, we need to consume about 25 to 35 grams a day. Why is this? Because fiber absorbs toxins and helps move them through and out of our bodies, cleaning us out. Meat does not contain fiber, so a diet that is almost entirely creature foods, contains little if any fiber. The lack of fiber from plant-based foods can cause constipation and intestinal blockages.

Natalia Rose, a New York clinical nutritionist, that I studied with, says that if you wake up in the morning, have a bowel movement, pull in your gut, and it is almost to your spine, then you have an empty and clean intestine. If you cannot do this, then your intestines are full of undigested waste stuck in the tissues like cement. Studies show that most Americans walk around with at least ten pounds of undigested waste in their intestines.

Our intestinal tract is where most of our immune system resides. It is also where we should be absorbing most of our nutrients from our food. In my research, I have found that if the intestinal tract is not healthy, then the person will have health challenges.

If your body is not eliminating waste efficiently after each meal, (and you should be having a bowel movement after each and every meal), there may be some blockage in the intestinal tract.

Anyone who has been a consumer of processed foods, fried foods, or trans fats, or who has been a meat eater (fish, fowl, beef, pork, and such) may have blockages, plaque, or debris lodged in the colon. After years and years of eating meals that are not completely digested or moved out of the body, there are layers and layers of waste that have been built up.

A raw plant-based food diet will help awaken the body, and help move the waste out-of-the-body. Changing your diet to mostly raw plant-based food will help, because the food is more likely to be completely (or close to completely) digested. Your body will start to cleanse itself of toxins because of the antioxidant-rich food and fiber.

When the colon and the rest of the intestinal tract are cleaned up and running free and clear, the whole body will start to work in harmony. Many people will find their joint problems, headaches, back aches, skin problems, and hair problems simply disappear when they finally get their colon and intestines clean and oxygenated.

Fiber, especially cruciferous vegetable fiber (like broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts) also provides food for our immune system. These are called prebiotics. This type of fiber helps our body sustain a healthy intestinal flora.

Fifty percent of our immune system is located in and around our digestive system, especially the large intestines. Cleansing these is the first step to obtaining and maintaining good health.

Once your body is cleansed, it can utilize nutrients much more efficiently, thus reducing your cravings for sweets and fatty foods. Furthermore, fiber helps lower blood sugar, which helps manage diabetes, and is linked to the prevention of colon and breast cancer.

The most convenient and consistent way to add more fiber to your daily routine is to eat more whole, raw organic vegetables and fruits in their natural form.

Here is a list of some of the top fiber foods that you can add to your diet:

Apple 1 medium 2.2 grams fiber

Acorn Squash 1 cup cooked 9 grams fiber

Avocado 1 medium 11.84 grams fiber

Black beans 1 cup cooked 14.92 grams fiber

Bran flakes 3/4 cup 5.1 grams fiber

Broccoli 1 cup cooked 10.97 grams fiber

Kale 1 cup cooked 7.20 grams fiber

Kidney beans 1 cup cooked 13.33 grams fiber

Lentils 1 cup cooked 5.6 grams fiber

Navy beans 1 cup cooked 19 grams fiber

Oat Meal 1 cup 4 grams fiber

Orange 1 medium 3.40 grams fiber

Pear 1 medium 5.1 grams fiber

Raspberries 1 cup 8.34 grams fiber

Rice 1 cup cooked 7.98 grams fiber

Spinach 1 cup cooked 4.32 grams fiber

Sweet potato 1 cup cooked 6.94 grams fiber

Whole-wheat spaghetti 1 cup cooked 6.3 grams fiber

This year, add some additional fiber and nutrients to your diet. Make this a lifestyle choice for a healthier new you!

The word “electrolyte” is a chemical term for salt. We need electrolytes to be healthy. As Dr. David Brownstein says, “Without salt, life itself would not be possible. (1) The misconception about salt stems from the fact that conventional medical doctor’s, who basically are not taught about nutrition, make no differentiation between white, refined salt and unrefined, mineral-rich salt.

Unrefined, mineral-rich salt is important for life, because our enzymes cannot function with it. Mineral-rich salt promotes the proper balance for the endocrine, adrenal, and thyroid glands, so that they function properly. It also supports healthy blood pressure, detoxifies the body, and along with water, is necessary for the optimal functioning of the immune system, hormonal system, and cardiovascular health. (2)

Dr. David Brownstein (a leading thyroid expert and author of Salt Your Way To Health) recommends at least 1 tsp. of mineral-rich salt in an adult diet daily for optimum health.

When we sweat, our body can lose many minerals, and these minerals need to be replenished. Unrefined whole, mineral-rich salt contains these minerals. Mineral-rich salt can also help balance the body by alkalizing it. Maintaining a slightly alkaline pH is important to our health.

The white refined table salt most of us grew up using lacks numerous minerals that are present in whole, natural, mineral-rich salt. Refined table salt is 98 percent sodium chloride with added bicarbonates, chemicals, sugar, and preservatives. Iodine, the main nutrient that supports our thyroid gland, is added to many refined salts, but in insufficient quantities “to prevent thyroid illnesses or to provide for the body’s iodine needs.” (3) Given that iodine dissipates after being exposed to oxygen, table salt could never be a reliable source of iodine anyway.

Many food sources today lack vital minerals and nutrients. Soils are depleted, and refining and processing take out many or all of the nutrients in foods. Salt cravings are actually a signal you may be depleted in nutrients, minerals, and electrolytes. Salt cravings can also be a signal that your thyroid and adrenal glands need minerals. If you have been craving salt or have been under a good deal of stress, you may want to add a drop of iodine daily to your diet to make certain you are getting enough iodine in your diet to support your thyroid. We don’t have many food sources for iodine, and it is extremely important to our health.

Dr. Brownstein says low-salt diets “promote toxicity” and have:

. . .adverse effects on numerous metabolic markers, including promoting elevated insulin levels and insulin resistance. Finally, low-mineral-rich salt diets will lead to mineral deficiencies and the development of chronic disease. (4)

In 1994, The British Medical Journal published a study conducted in the Netherlands. The study examined 100 men and women between the ages of 55 and 75 who had mild to moderate hypertension. When common, refined table salt was replaced with mineral-rich salt high in magnesium and potassium, the study showed a reduction in blood pressure equivalent to that produced by drugs which lower blood pressure. (5)

There are various types of mineral-rich salts, with different mineral contents. Try a few different ones and see which one you like the best. Celtic sea salt is supposed to be high in minerals, but it is from the polluted present-day oceans, and can contain mercury and plastic. Personally, I like to use Bolivian Rose salt and Real Salt (by Redmond).

Mined mineral-rich salt is cleaner and more nutrient-dense, because it was formed when oceans were less polluted, and during a more nutrient-dense time. Minerals have color, so buy salt with pink color. White salt has probably been bleached and has had the minerals stripped from it.

In conclusion, we need mineral-rich pink salt in our diet to be healthy. I think it makes our food taste better also!

As Dr. Brownstein would say, Salt Your Way To Health!

The post Is There Good Salt And Bad Salt? appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Many of them are (or have been) on cholesterol-lowering drugs, or have been told by their medical doctors to keep their cholesterol low. As I have researched this over the years, I have come to the exact opposite conclusion.

Cholesterol is necessary in our bodies for a healthy life, and there is a lot of false information out there regarding cholesterol.

In this article, I am going to address some important information concerning cholesterol that you may find helpful, and possibly even surprising.

First of all, what is cholesterol? We are told there is a “Bad” Cholesterol: LDL and a “Good” Cholesterol: HDL. According to Websters Dictionary, cholesterol is a fat-like substance C27H46O that is found in the cells, tissues, and body fluids of humans and animals. It serves as a component of cell membranes, and functions as a precursor of Vitamin D and steroid hormones (such as cortisol, estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone). Fats are converted to cholesterol in the liver. Some fats sources are meat, eggs, and dairy products.

According to Parkinson’s Resource Organization, “Some 25 million Americans take these so-called “wonder drugs” to lower their “bad” cholesterol levels, but is this popular class of pharmaceuticals actually safe? NOPE! There are over 900 studies proving the adverse effects of statin drugs, including anemia, chronic fatigue, acidosis, liver dysfunction, thyroid disruption, PARKINSON’S, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and, yes … even CANCER! That’s right. The latest available science suggests that this supposedly artery-scouring miracle medication may significantly increase your risk of developing cancer.”

According to Dr. Lee Merritt, a Navy Spine Surgeon, the brain is almost totally made of cholesterol and so are our body’s nerves. She said she read some studies conducted on cholesterol and heart disease, and the studies revealed that there is absolutely NO connection with cholesterol and heart disease.(1)

A recent study showed that statins and other cholesterol drugs did not reduce the risk of heart disease after all. (2) “The researchers claim doctors have overlooked evidence that suggests the drug is not effective. Statins are routinely prescribed to people thought to be at risk of heart disease. The research overturns decades of medical advice that states the opposite.”

In an article, “What’s the Best Predictor of Heart Disease?“ by Dr. Joseph Mercola, he writes:

“Is high total cholesterol and/or elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol indicative of elevated heart disease risk? According to Dr. Paul Saladino, the answer is no. With regard to total cholesterol, as far back as 1977, with the publication of the Framingham Study,¹ no correlation between heart disease and total cholesterol could be found.

Low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol was associated with coronary heart disease, but not high LDLs or total cholesterol. However, as noted by Saladino, low HDL is also associated with insulin resistance, and he believes this is part of the confusion.

Saladino suspects that what has been blamed on LDL (atherosclerosis) is due to insulin resistance, i.e., metabolic dysfunction. Insulin resistance/metabolic dysfunction, in turn, is primarily driven by excessive consumption of the omega-6 fat linoleic acid (LA).”

From my research, 350 was a normal cholesterol number before the pharmaceutical companies started creating these cholesterol-lowering drugs.

Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a senior researcher at MIT for 30 years has done extensive nutrition research concerning heart disease. She has spoken about cholesterol in many of the 8 shows she has been on with me. On my Organic Healthy Lifestyle podcast,  she shares her research that heart disease is not caused by high cholesterol, but by a sulfur and Vitamin D deficiency. She said that cholesterol needs sulfur and Vitamin D, in order to work in unison to heal the body, like a symphony. She said when the body is lacking sulfur, and Vitamin D, the cholesterol is isolated and is unable to do it’s healing work. She said it waits for it’s partners in the arteries around the heart, because that is the first place it goes with it’s partners to heal the body. Click here to listen to one of the shows where she discusses this.

Dr. Merritt also stated that she read in the book, “Grain Brain: The Surprising Truth About Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar – Your Brain’s Silent Killers” by David Perlmutter M.D., that a cholesterol reading below 340 can lead to dementia. (3)

In addition to that, a study published in Quantitative medicine, “Does Low Cholesterol Cause Alzheimer’s?“, found that having LOW cholesterol contributes to Alzheimer’s. (4)

“While recognized as one of the most commonly prescribed drugs, researchers are saying that statins and other cholesterol-lowering drugs may not reduce the risk of heart disease after all.”

That’s according to the British Medical Journal, following an analysis of 35 studies into the effects of the drugs, according to the Daily Mail. (5)

“Statins may not slash the risk of dying from heart disease: Controversial study claims the cheap cholesterol-busting pills offer no ‘consistent benefit. Scientists analysed 35 previous studies into the effects of the cheap drugs. Three quarters of trials reported no reduction in mortality among statin users. Statins are routinely prescribed to people thought to be at risk of heart disease.

Researchers systematically reviewed all published clinical trials comparing treatment with one of three types of cholesterol-lowering drugs – statins, ezetimibe and PCSK9, and found that the drugs have no consistent benefit.

Three-quarters of all trials reported no reduction in mortality among those on statins, with half suggesting that the pills did not prevent heart attacks or strokes, even though the common belief has been that targeting “bad” cholesterol with these drugs is the most effective way to lower risks of heart disease.”

As I learn more by discussing these things with Dr. Stephanie Seneff and other medical researchers, I have come to the conclusion that low cholesterol under 340 is dangerous to our health.

A quote from PUB MED study: Cholesterol: its regulation and role in central nervous system disorders (6)

“Cholesterol is a major constituent of the human brain, and the brain is the most cholesterol-rich organ. Numerous lipoprotein receptors and apolipoproteins are expressed in the brain. Cholesterol is tightly regulated between the major brain cells and is essential for normal brain development. The metabolism of brain cholesterol differs markedly from that of other tissues.

Brain cholesterol is primarily derived by de novo synthesis and the blood brain barrier prevents the uptake of lipoprotein cholesterol from the circulation.

Cholesterol is an important structural component of cellular membranes and myelin and a precursor of oxysterols, steroid hormones, and bile acids. Cholesterol is a major constituent of the human brain (with about 35 grams of cholesterol in an adult brain, and the brain is the most cholesterol-rich organ, containing about 20% of the body’s total cholesterol …

Cholesterol depletion leads to synaptic and dendritic spine degeneration, failed neurotransmission, and decreased synaptic plasticity. Cholesterol is a pivotal constituent of cell membranes, steroid hormones, and for the function of the hedgehog protein.

Defects in cholesterol metabolism lead to structural and functional central nervous system (CNS) diseases such as Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome], Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease, Huntington’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease.”(6)

In addition, one study found that low cholesterol and low triglyceride levels can cause strokes in women.

“Conclusion: LDL-C levels <70 mg/dL and low triglyceride levels were associated with increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke among women.”(7)

Canada, England and Australia don’t see any evidence that dietary cholesterol has any significant impact on blood cholesterol and have no recommended cholesterol limits.

If that is not enough, a study published in Neurology, “Does low cholesterol increase your risk of nerve damage and hemorrhages?” with findings that suggests yes, low cholesterol can cause risk of nerve damage and homorrhages.(8)

So, if cholesterol is actually good for us, I am now going to expand on a cholesterol-rich food.

People tell me all the time that they are not eating eggs because of the cholesterol. They also tell me that they only eat egg whites or egg white omelets. I thought the same thing for a long time.

What I found out is that it is the “egg yolks” that contain an abundance of nutrition. Eggs contain cholesterol, and they also contain important B vitamins, unsaturated fats, sulphur, lutein and zeaxanthin (which contributes to eye health and a reduction of macular degeneration). Dr. Seneff says that organic pasture-raised egg yolks are like a complete vitamin. (9)

The egg whites have enzyme inhibitors, which for animals, like dogs, can cause serious health problems. So, for myself, I never eat egg whites without the egg yolk, and many times, I will eat the yolk and not the white. In my and Dr. Stephanie Seneff’s opinion, the egg yolk nutrients are heart healthy.

Cholesterol has held a bad reputation for many years, but an in-depth study by Harvard in 1999 found no connection with eggs and heart disease. So, for the majority of people, eggs may actually be good for their health.

When I was Larry Hagman’s personal chef/nutrition consultant, he had an organic omelet with baby spinach and some sliced fresh tomatoes almost every morning, along with a green smoothie. This made him feel fully satisfied longer.

Studies show that when people eat eggs for breakfast, that their meal is more sustaining. This may be due to the amount of protein and nutrition they provide. Thus, eggs may not only be good for your eye health, but also good for your waistline as well.

One more way to increase/improve your cholesterol in your body is to use pure organic coconut oil as your body lotion. The skin is the largest organ and the lotion will not only make your skin feel more smooth and less dry, it will also improve the cholesterol levels in your body.
What ever goes right on your skin, will get straight into the body in an effective way improving your overall health in many ways. I personally use cold-pressed, organic, pure coconut oil for cooking and for my body lotion.

In addition to this information, I will address one more subject regarding health and the heart. In an article, The Vast Overtreatment Of Blood Pressure, the doctor points out that there is a lack of scientific proof, and that most of the science used by the main stream medical in the US is flawed and in some cases, inacurate information, concerning blood pressure and cholesterol, so they can prescribe drugs to people, which can actually cause higher rates of death.

Dr. Mercola has two recent articles on Cholesterol that you might also like to read:
Why Is Low Blood Cholesterol Associated with Increased Late Life Mortality?
and  The Great Cholesterol Scam And The Dangers Of Statins.

In conclusion, research for yourself the importance of cholesterol in your diet, and decide what is best for you and your family. Always continue to strive for optimum health.

It is National Mushroom Month!

Many of you may be cooking outdoors this month. This is a great vegan/vegetarian version to serve plant-based diners. I used to take a portobello mushroom with me whenever I went to cookouts and I wanted to have something plant-based to eat with everyone. I have made this for many non-vegetarian Texans with great success, much to their surprise!

This was one of Larry Hagman’s (also known as J. R. Ewing, in the television show “Dallas”) favorite meals. I would make this for him when I was his chef & nutritionist, when he had throat cancer and diabetes. I had him on a very strict healthy diet, and I would serve this to him when he was craving something “meaty,” like a hamburger.

Mushrooms are nutrient-dense and have less calories than meat. They have also been found to prevent cancer.

According to a study conducted by The University of Western Australia in Perth, eating mushrooms daily may reduce breast cancer risk by nearly two thirds.

The study, conducted in China, looked at more than 2000 women, half of whom had suffered from breast cancer. Researchers found that the women who ate a third of an ounce of fresh mushrooms every day had lowered their risk of developing a tumor by 64 percent.(1)

Dried mushrooms didn’t have quite the same benefit, but still reduced the risk “by around half.”(2)

It is certainly great to have the reinforcement of knowledge that mushrooms are such a healthy food.

Portobello mushrooms contain a variety of B-complex vitamins (including vitamin B6, thiamine, and folate), are an excellent source of riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and niacin, as well as a very good source of thiamine. Protein (complex amino acids), selenium, lysine, zinc, copper , manganese, and iron are some additional benefits of eating this mushroom.

Portobello mushrooms are a great alternative to meat, because of their meaty texture and flavor.

The quantities in this recipe are enough for one person.

Ingredients:

1 large portobello mushroom

3 T. organic coconut liquid amino sauce or teriyaki sauce

1 whole, sprouted-grain hamburger bun or bread (I love the Ezekiel 4:9® Sprouted Whole Grain Sesame Burger Buns)

¼ cup sliced goat cheese (from goats that are grass-fed and humanely-raised, or you can use a vegan goat cheese)

Directions:

1. Brush off the mushroom and remove the stem. (Save the stem to cut up and use in a stir-fry or pasta dish later.)

2. Soak the mushroom in your choice of sauce for at least five minutes (although 30 minutes is even better).

3. Grill, or bake at 350°F, just until thoroughly warm, making sure it is moist with the amino sauce or teriyaki sauce.

4. Warm or toast bun.

5. Place the goat cheese (if using) on top of mushroom and leave in oven just a couple of minutes to soften the cheese.

6. Remove mushroom from grill or oven and place on bun.

7. Serve immediately.

Variations:

1. For a vegan version, you can use sliced avocado instead of goat cheese. It’s a really delicious addition to this sandwich.

2. You can add a few leaves of romaine lettuce, or tomato slices, or onion, but I found it is simply delicious just with the goat cheese.

To most people our dental health seems like a simple ordinary thing, but in reality it’s extremely critical and it plays a vital part in our overall health.

Every day, the average person exposes themselves to more than 100 chemicals from soaps, cosmetics, and other personal care products, like toothpaste or mouthwash. Many of these ingredients (chemicals) have been clinically researched and shown to cause serious health problems, including cancers. In fact over 80,000+ chemicals used in body care products have never been properly tested for safety by federal regulatory agencies.

According to Dr. Thomas Levy – lawyer and cardiologist, many chronic health conditions are a result of poor dental health and toxic teeth.

So, here is some basic information to get you started in the right direction: Toothpaste If you read the boxes of some name-brand toothpastes and mouthwashes, you may see a warning to immediately call poison control if you swallow them. The warnings are usually only on the box and not on the tube or bottle itself.

The post Creating Health And Vitality Through Good Dental Care! appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Sprouts are the ultimate superfood, incredibly nutritious and packed with power. Sprouts are the basis of life because they rejuvenate, re-energize, and heal. Sprouts are one of the most nutritionally-rich foods. A complete food, they contain protein, carbohydrates, and good fat. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and natural enzymes. Sprouts can contain all the nutritional value of the whole plant in one little sprout!

Studies have shown that when seeds and grains are germinated, they show an increase in “activities of hydrolytic enzymes, improvement in the contents of certain essential amino acids, total sugars, and B-group vitamins, and a decrease in dry matter, starch, and anti-nutrients.”(1)

Because of the protein shortage during World War II, Dr. Clive M. McKay promoted sprouted soybeans as a wartime food source. The Chinese have included sprouts as a nutritional part of their diet for thousands of years. Adding sprouts is an easy way to add a wealth of nutrition to your diet.

The mung bean is one of my favorite sprouts. A sprouted mung bean has the carbohydrate content of a melon, the Vitamin A of a lemon, the thiamin of an avocado, the riboflavin of a dry apple, the niacin of a banana, and the ascorbic acid of a loganberry— all in one sprout! Dr. Paul Talalay of the American Cancer Society said that “broccoli sprouts are better for you than full-grown broccoli and contain more of the enzyme sulforaphane, which helps protect cells and prevents their genes from turning into cancer.”(2)

The New York Times Reported that “researchers from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore have found that broccoli sprouts, grown in plastic laboratory dishes from ordinary broccoli seeds, contain anywhere from 30 to 50 times the concentration of protective chemicals found in mature broccoli plants. These chemicals, called isothiocyanates, were already known to be potent stimulators of natural detoxifying enzymes in the body, and are thought to help explain why the consumption of broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage and kale is associated with a lowered risk of contracting cancer.

With the discovery that broccoli sprouts are an exceptionally rich source of isothiocyanates, the scientists suggested that the sprouts might offer an easy, palatable and fairly uniform way of getting at least some of the protective benefits of a high-vegetable diet. For example, they said, epidemiological studies indicate that to cut the risk of colon cancer in half, a person needs to eat about two pounds of broccoli and similar vegetables a week, a goal that few Americans meet.

Given the chemical potency of broccoli sprouts, the scientists said, the same reduction in risk theoretically might be had with a weekly intake of just a little over an ounce of sprouts.”(3)

Growing your own sprouts is easy. Anyone can do it, and the sprouts are ready to harvest in four days to a week. All you need are seeds, clean water, and a sieve or sprouting bag or jar. (If you are growing something like wheat or barley grass or sunflower seed sprouts, you’ll also need some trays and nutrient-rich soil.)

The FDA said contaminated food plant seeds can cause food-borne illness, so cleaning seeds first is recommended. Clean seeds with a mixture of lime juice and vinegar or a tiny bit of food-grade hydrogen peroxide.

After this, soak them with EM, an effective microbial inoculant, which is a probiotic blend. Microbial inoculant products include three groups of naturally occurring beneficial bacteria: yeast, photosynthetic bacteria, and lactic acid bacteria. The probiotic “works together with microbes in the area to which it is added, to promote a healthy environment for beneficial microorganisms and larger forms of life, including insects, worms, pets, livestock and people.”(4) (You can purchase the Microbial inoculant, EM, Bokashi, from Arbico Organics in various forms.)

Make a mild mixture of one drop of EM in one cup of pure water, add the seeds, and let them sit for 10 minutes. The seeds and the earth benefit from probiotics, which boost their ability to fight off harmful bacteria, just as our body benefits from probiotics which keep bad bacteria in check. In a sense, we are boosting the earth’s immune system. Then, put the seeds in pure water and soak them overnight. Drain the water. Put them in a sieve or a sprouting bag or jar and place in a cool dark place. If you are growing wheat or barley grass or sunflower seeds, put them in a flat sprouting tray with some organic soil and sprinkle a bit more soil over them. The ideal temperature is 70°F.

I simply lay a dish towel over my sprouts or put them in a dark room. Rinse the seeds (or water the sprouting tray and soil) one to three times a day with pure water until they start to sprout. When they start to sprout, they will grow quickly. After a full day or two sprouting, you can move them to the sunlight. There they will develop chlorophyll, the green pigment found in plants.

Chlorophyll has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Antioxidants prevent or slow oxidation. (Oxidation leads to cell damage, production of abnormal cells, and disease.) Antioxidants also stop the damage caused by free radicals. Plus, chlorophyll gives sprouts high levels of oxygen.

Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg found that cancer cells, bacteria, and viruses could not survive in a body with high amounts of oxygen. (5)

He also determined the ideal pH of the human body is approximately 7. Processed foods are acidic and can make the body acidic. Sprouts are an alkaline food, and a great source of oxygen. Leave the sprouts in the sunlight for a day (or more) to get as much chlorophyll as you can into your sprouts.

I buy a lot of my organic sprouts from the “Indoor Organic Gardens of Poughkeepsie”. They also make an incredibly healthy raw, organic broccoli sprout powder you can add to foods for a super powerful nutritious boost! Put the code “Nancy” in the discount box for a sizable discount, if you order products from them.

Add sprouts to salads, sandwiches, dips, smoothies, green drinks, and juices!

When I started learning about cleansing approximately 30 years ago,
I learned about the positive effects that grasses have on our body.
I learned about barley grass as well as wheatgrass. The chlorophyll-rich grasses have enormous amounts of antioxidants and are highly alkalizing. There are so many benefits from consuming juice that has been freshly extracted from grasses.

Here are some of the benefits of wheatgrass juice, according to Dr. Ann Wigmore:

1. When externally applied to the skin, it can help eliminate itching almost immediately.
2. It can soothe sunburned skin and act as a disinfectant.
3, When rubbed into the scalp before a shampoo, it can help mend damaged hair and alleviate itchy, scaly scalp conditions.
4. It can soothe and heal cuts, burns, scrapes, rashes, poison ivy, athlete’s foot, insect bites, boils, sores, open ulcers, tumors, and so on. (Use as a poultice and replace every two to four hours.)
5. When consumed, it can return gray hair to its natural color and act as a beauty treatment.
6. Drinking wheatgrass juice will cleanse your blood and help rejuvenate aging cells, slowing the aging process down, and making you feel more alive right away. It will help tighten loose and sagging skin.
7. It can lessen the effects of radiation. One enzyme found in wheatgrass, SOD, lessens the effects of radiation and acts as an anti-inflammatory compound that may prevent cellular damage following heart attacks or exposure to irritants.
8. Consuming wheatgrass can restore fertility and promote youthfulness.
9. Wheatgrass can be used as a sleep aid. Place a tray of living wheatgrass near the head of your bed. It will enhance the oxygen in the air and generate healthful negative ions to help you sleep more soundly.
10. When gargled, it can sweeten the breath, and firm and tighten gums. [i]

Many health clinics in the United States today (like the Ann Wigmore Foundation and Retreat Center, Hippocrates Institute, and the Tree of Life, just to name a few) use wheatgrass as a mainstay of their healing programs.

The grass is high in antioxidants, oxygenates the blood, and is nutrient-dense. It is such an easy and simple healing modality.

The post Wheatgrass – The Health Benefits appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

We need to cleanse because we acquire toxins in our bodies on a regular basis. In today’s world, an estimated one billion humans are exposed regularly to environmental toxins.

We live in a world that is literally saturated with toxins. We can absorb toxins by breathing in polluted air, taking showers or drinking chlorinated tap water, eating foods when we don’t know their source or preparation method, being exposed to pesticides, toxic cleaning fluids, dry-cleaning fluids, or pest control fluids, and wearing new, unwashed clothing. Over one billion humans are exposed to high levels of toxic metals and metalloids in the environment.

Some common symptoms of being toxic (and being in need of a detoxification cleanse) are: constipation, gas and bloating, diarrhea, back pain, joint and muscle pain, irritable bowel syndrome, allergies, insatiable hunger, itchy ears, nose, or anus, unpleasant sensations in the stomach, nervousness, grumpiness, chronic fatigue, lethargy or apathy, various skin problems, problems sleeping, nutritional deficiencies or anemia, problems with the immune system, teeth grinding or clenching, weight gain, forgetfulness, and blurry vision.

One of the most damaging toxins that we are exposed to is mercury. Mercury toxicity is more common than most people realize. (This is especially true for people who eat seafood or salt taken from today’s polluted oceans.) Mercury is a neurotoxin, and you can get toxicity from energy saving light bulbs (these emit a toxic mercury vapor into the air that we breathe), seafood (tuna and swordfish are particularly high in mercury), vaccines, some body care products, water, and dental amalgam fillings.

Studies show that mercury, even in small amounts, can damage the central nervous system causing irritability, fatigue, mood swings, behavioral problems, tremors, headaches, hearing loss, dysarthria, incoordination, hallucinations, loss of peripheral vision, “pins and needles” feelings, usually in the hands, feet, and around the mouth, lack of coordination of movements, ringing in your ears, insomnia, and even death.

If you have you been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, MS, fibromyalgia, Autism, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig’s disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, or a brain tumor, you may actually have mercury poisoning.

Mercury can damage the brain, kidneys, liver and central nervous system. Infants and children are particularly vulnerable to the toxic effects of mercury.

Mercury affects male children at a higher rate than females.

Mercury in the cardiovascular system, “even in low doses can cause hypertension and alterations in endothelial function.”

Frequently people tell me that they can’t lose weight no matter what they do. This can be because the body is holding onto toxins by surrounding them with fat cells. This happens when the body gets overloaded with toxins. In order to protect the body from the toxins, it surrounds them with fat to protect itself from their harmful effects. Until you can detoxify the body, the body will hold onto those protective layers of fat.

When you do a detoxification cleanse, many people find that they are able to lose weight. This is because the body no longer has a need for that fat it was protecting you with.

Additionally, our bodies become acidic through stress and the foods we eat. These toxins and acids hurt our bodies deep within our cells. How can the body have a clean liver, blood, or lymphatic system if it is filled with toxins, acid, and waste? A clean intestinal system and frequent, thorough bowel movements are key elements of a truly healthy system.

We absorb most of our nutrients though the intestinal wall. If it is clean, we are able to absorb the nutrients. If it is not clean but is instead full of waste and rancid debris, then the body won’t get the nutrients it needs. Dr. Anthony Bassler, a gastroenterologist, said, “Every physician should realize the intestinal toxemias (poisons) are the most important primary and contributing cause of many disorders and diseases of the body.”

We also need to cleanse because our intestines can become thick with plaque over time. This “mucoid plaque” can result from consuming foods like milk, wheat, and meat. It can be thick and rubbery. It can even look a little like a rope when it exits out of the body.

In the book Tissue Cleansing through Bowel Management, Dr. Bernard Jensen, DC, ND, PhD addresses this: “The heavy mucus coating in the colon thickens and becomes a host of putrefaction. The blood capillaries to the colon begin to pick up the toxins, poisons, and noxious debris as it seeps through the bowel wall. All tissues and organs of the body are now taking on toxic substances. Here is the beginning of true autointoxication on a physiological level.

One autopsy revealed a colon to be 9 inches in diameter with a passage through it no larger than a pencil. The rest was caked up layer upon layer of encrusted fecal material. This accumulation can have the consistency of truck tire rubber. It’s that hard and black. Another autopsy revealed a stagnant colon to weigh in at an incredible 40 pounds.

Dr. Richard Anderson, ND, NMD addresses the subject of plaque as well. Dr. Anderson, an expert on colon cleansing, wrote Cleanse and Purify Thyself, Volumes 1 & 2. In an article on colon plaque, he says: The phrase, “mucoid plaque” is a coined term that I use to describe various conditions found throughout the body, especially in hollow organs and the alimentary canal. It is a substance that the body naturally creates under unnatural conditions, such as attacks from acids, drugs, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals.

Professional cleanses, like colonics or enemas, can remove this old leftover waste and plaque from the intestinal tract.

The good news is that there are really effective cleanses that can help you safely remove these toxins from your body. I recommend cleansing for a minimum of 10 days and as long as 21 days to detoxify the body and adjust its pH on a regular basis. This will keep the inner environment of the body’s digestive system cleaner, healthier, and able to support a vibrant immune system.

Along with this comes an additional benefit. A major part of the body’s happiness chemical, serotonin, is synthesized in the gastrointestinal tract. It is no wonder people feel happier and better when their bowels are clean and functioning in the most optimal way! I do a month-long cleanse every January to start off the New Year fresh and renewed after too much holiday party munching.

Each time you cleanse, it will get easier. Eventually, or maybe very quickly, you will see a difference in how you feel.

“Chemical Free Body” makes a nice, easy cleanse that is incredibly effective for cleansing the liver. This 100% naturally occurring formula by Chemical Free Body is made with special, heavy metal free Zeolites and a powerful Herbal Blend which can support your body’s natural elimination of toxic Chemicals, Heavy Metals, Radiation, Synthetic Estrogens and Free-Radicals.

I do this Chemical Free Body cleanse every 3 months and I recommend it to my clients. This is literally a detox and nutrition clinic in a box. Look at each product as a tool in your health
tool-kit doing a necessary job to clean and nourish your body. GREEN 85 replaces the roughly 85% of nutrients in the soil so your cells have the building blocks to give you energy and repair themselves. GUT DETOX gently removes the 6-12 pounds of unwanted waste matter lining the digestive tract. TOXIN DETOX helps to remove heavy metals, radiation and toxic chemicals from the blood, fat & muscle tissue. PROBIOTICS & PREBIOTICS helps to colonize your gut bacteria to help with digestion and boost immunity and mental clarity. ULTRA ENZYMES help assist the breakdown of heavy foods while supplying necessary minerals to the nutrient deficient foods we consume and helping the rehabilitation process of gut action.

The two things I think are most lacking in the American diet are good types of fiber and chlorophyll-rich green foods. This detox cleanse has both. Quite simply, it is made up of healthy food that most people lack in their normal everyday diet.

The nutrients will feed your body, as well as flush and pull toxins and acids out of your cells. The fiber will absorb these toxins and expand like a sponge. You will then drink a lot of water, which will create a cleaning effect. Along with the sponge-like fiber, the toxic particles, plaque, and other debris that might be lodged in the intestines will be dragged out.

Each time you cleanse, it will clean out a little more. Think of the layers of an onion. When you start, you will get one layer, and the next time, you will get the next layer. You may eventually find this is a good part of your daily or weekly routine. I do a cleanse a few times a week, year-round, as a normal part of my life/diet.

All food should be efficiently digested, its nutrients absorbed, and its waste eliminated. If you are eating three times per day, then you should be having bowel movements three times per day. The more fiber you ingest, the easier and more efficiently the waste will be eliminated. There is not a set time period for this, but ideally it should be anywhere from 3–12 hours after each meal.

You can test your digestive function by eating a meal of raw or slightly steamed red beets. The deep red color in the bowel movement will allow you to see when that meal is eliminated. This is an easy way to see if your body is eliminating quickly and efficiently.

If you feel uncomfortable and are not having bowel movements, you may want to get a colonic series to help get your system cleaned out and moving again.

Drink lots of water, and fresh green organic vegetable juices to keep the toxins, acid, and waste moving out of the body. This is so important! These cleanses are cleaning out the inside of your body. With the removal of the plaque, waste, and debris, you will also be alkalizing your body with the super detox foods.

You will have to make a personal decision about the length of your cleanse. Many holistic physicians think 21 days is the best length.
You may want to consult me or your holistic physician before starting a cleanse, or do the cleanse under his or her guidance.

I am hosting a wellness retreat in Round Top, Texas April 10-14.

I am also planning to host some wellness retreats in Costa Rica, beginning this summer 2023. So, come join me for some adventures in food, wellness, peace, and a healthy environment! Watch for details in future newsletters.

Visit Organic Healthy Lifestyle for award-winning nutritional advice that will make you rethink your current eating habits.

Rest first and foremost

Rest is often the most effective remedy to realizing your full potential, but it is also the most overlooked. However, rest is vital for our bodies and minds. Ensuring that you get seven to nine hours of sleep at the very minimum every night is what is going to set the stage for how productive and focused you will be the next day.

Eat right

Eating right is another simple and often neglected practice that is glossed over. But again, it is an essential habit that needs to be practiced so that your body has the strength to function at its best. Your mind also requires essential vitamins and nutrients to think clearly, which, if you think about it, is necessary in achieving your most desirable goals.

Upgrade your home

If your current home is no longer doing anything for you or is no longer catering to your growth, it may be time to look at alternative prospects. Online listings can provide you with various options to suit your wish list regarding the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, etc., you want. You may be able to do a virtual tour with some websites, which can provide a clearer picture of what the property is like before you view it in person.

Create a cleaner home environment

When trying to be healthy, it is a good idea to look at every facet of your life to see what areas detract from your health goals. Of course, you also want to be sure that you are spring-cleaning your home with safe cleaning chemicals. Reading online advice and product reviews from reputable websites such as https://cleanerdigs.com/ can give you a good indication of what to use and what not to use when keeping your household safe from toxic chemicals.

Take a step towards becoming a business owner

Becoming a business owner is a huge step towards growing if you have been in the comfort zone of working for someone else for a while. Choosing a business structure that will allow you to further expand on your entrepreneurial exploits should help make this process easier. For example, with an LLC, there is minimal to do regarding registering a business plus, there are certain advantages with an LLC that you can’t get with other business structures, such as limited liability, flexibility, pass-through taxation, and more. You’ll also get access to a registered agent who will be your go-to person for any tax and legal queries by the government, law firms, and tax agencies.

The journey towards self-growth can consist of both little steps and more major adjustments, such as finding a new home (and keeping it in the necessary condition) to help promote a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.

Brad Krause created Self Caring after years spent putting his own self-care on the back burner. His goal now is to educate people on the importance of self-care by providing tips and tricks that are easy to implement.

The post How to Orchestrate Your Own Path Toward Self-Improvement appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

If you are wondering if a vegetarian or vegan-based diet is right for you, you might consider the findings in a large study.

According to Mladen Golubic, MD, PhD, with the Cleveland Clinic, a national (US) dietary survey was completed with over 6,000 people between the ages of 50 and 65 years old. It was found that those who reported a high protein intake (for example: eggs, dairy, fowl, pork, beef, lamb, and more) increased their risk of death by 75 percent.

The study showed a quadruple increase in death due to cancer during the following 18 years, and a quintuple increase in death from diabetes. The participants with a moderate intake of protein had a triple increase in their risk of death due to cancer, when compared with the low protein intake group.

“It is important to note that these associations of death by disease were completely eradicated if the ingested proteins were “plant-derived”. The composition of complex amino acids (which are the building blocks of protein) that are derived from animals act very differently than the amino acids from plant protein. What we need are the amino acids, not the proteins themselves.”

I’ve personally been a vegetarian for over 35 years. When I became a vegetarian, my own health improved dramatically.

Over the years, one of the things that has always confused people is the difference between a vegan and a vegetarian. People who eat chicken and fish are technically not vegetarians, but many call themselves vegetarian anyway. That’s why there is frequently confusion about this point. So, I am going to expand on the differences between all of these types of diets.

VEGETARIAN

The mainstream vegetarian avoids all animal products that require slaughtering an animal. If they STILL eat dairy and eggs, they are called an ovo-lacto vegetarian. Milk products, such as cheeses that don’t have rennet in them (rennet is made from the stomach lining of an animal),and non-fertile eggs are allowed. Vegetarian cheeses are made with vegetable rennet, vegetable enzymes, or figs. If they do not eat eggs, but allow milk and milk products in their diet, they are called a lacto-vegetarian.

PESCETARIAN

The people who eat fish, but no other type of meat, are pescetarian. However, many people who are pescetarian still refer to their diet as vegetarianism. This is very common and this group can also be called pesco-vegetarian. Some might say it’s a branch of vegetarianism.

(With the amount of mercury and plastic in the fish today, you may wish to listen to my recent radio show with Dr. McGraw concerning fish & mercury.)

PESCE POLLO VEGETARIAN

Then there is the person who eats chicken and fish, but avoids red meat. They can be called a pesco pollo vegetarian. This type of diet is not truly vegetarian.

VEGAN

A vegan avoids all products that have an animal origin. A vegan may even avoid honey, because it is made by bees. Many vegans will even go so far as to avoid using products such as wool, leather, silk, fur, wool, gelatin, lanolin, rennet, whey, casein, beeswax, shellac, carmine, bone, or fat for their bodies or lives. They prefer to avoid using products that can be made by exploiting a living creature in any way.

FLEXITARIAN

There is presently a new eating plan sensation called the “flexitarian” way of eating. This new way of eating is for people who plan to eat less creature foods, but who don’t want to cut them out completely.

Because of this phenomenon, the food labs have been developing new types of GMO foods using beef or chicken mixed with various “plant-based” ingredients. Even though I believe that whenever people eat more wisely and humanely it is a good thing, and I am grateful for their effort, I do not agree with this type of mixed GMO food, because all of my research studies strongly urge the avoidance of ALL GMO foods. I find this new food disturbing, and I will keep you updated on any health-related research that I find regarding this new “food.”

PLANT-BASED EATING

I definitely support everyone’s efforts to eat healthier and more humanely. That is one reason why I wrote the book, “How To Be A Healthy Vegetarian,” which is in it’s 2nd edition (winner of 8 book awards & now available in audio). I want to help people on their journey to better health, along with creating a gentler more humane world. Even if you don’t want to be 100% plant-based, consuming more fresh, organic plant foods can benefit most people’s health immensely. I believe that most people do not get enough fresh plant food nutrition and fiber, which I believe is extremely important for optimum overall health and well-being.

My goal is to enlighten people on how important the quality of all foods are, including vegetarian and vegan. A lot of people believe that simply giving up animal protein is healthy, but the truth is that you can also eat a very unhealthy vegetarian or vegan diet. Sometimes a vegetarian or vegan diet could include soy, fake meats, GMO foods, conventionally grown foods, processed foods, artificial sweeteners and dyes, monosodium glutamate (MSG), unhealthy fats, fast foods, microwaved foods, and refined foods and I don’t think any of those foods are healthy. The key to good health is to find the best REAL foods that come directly from nature with the least amount of manipulation or processing by man.

IN CONCLUSION

Live in the moment, be present, listen to your heart, and try to do the best and right thing for you at all times. Our life and our health are just that: personal choices.

For many of us in transition, with new food choices or life in general, it takes baby steps. Eating more fresh organic fruits and vegetables will make your health improve. Try eating one plant-based meal a day. I would definitely recommend looking for the most humanely-raised, organic, fresh, quality food at all times, for all your meals.

Becoming a more plant-based eater, whether completely or partially vegan or vegetarian, is a journey. Simply start the journey, and see where it takes you.

The post What Is Plant-Based Eating And Why It Matters appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

More and more people of all ages have told me how they either have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. As we get older, we don’t produce as much melatonin, which is the hormone that helps us sleep. If we don’t have enough melatonin, our body will pull it from our serotonin reserve in order to make it. You can buy melatonin as a supplement at the store. It comes in different strengths (one to three milligrams).

Dr. Gary Massad has researched melatonin and sleep problems in depth. He told me that the studies show that if you take half a milligram of melatonin around three in the afternoon, and another half milligram about an hour before bedtime, it will work most effectively. If a melatonin supplement is taken, it saves our reserves of serotonin, which affects our mood. If you aren’t draining your melatonin reserves, you will have more serotonin to help with sustaining positive moods.

Melatonin works much better with ample Vitamin B in your system. If you are concerned about Vitamin B, take a good whole-food Vitamin B complex supplement. Some medical experts think that a Vitamin B spray under the tongue is the best type of supplement source, because it is absorbed more effectively. Vitamin B’s are water-soluble and need to be replenished daily.

Hormone imbalances (specifically low progesterone) can also disrupt our sleep patterns. Have your doctor check you for a hormone imbalance, or an adrenal or vitamin deficiency.

In the last two years, I have been using a marvelous new technology that activates and elevates the body’s copper peptide
GHK-cu (copper) peptide, and It’s called the X 39. This peptide resets 4000 genes to a younger state, helps repair collagen in all tissues, activates stem cell production, encourages apoptosis of cancer cells and discourages metastatic cancer cells. Using X39 people have better sleep, less pain and less inflammation.

This company also makes a wonderful “Silent Night” patch, that many of my clients are using at night to get a better, deeper nights sleep. Some of my clients said they have been told they are not snoring any longer also.

Experiment to find out what works best for you. In fact, what works for you might change from time to time.

What Can Help You Sleep?

· Exercise daily and breathe deeply.

· Make the bedroom a place of peace and tranquility, with as little EMF (electromagnetic field) disturbance, noise, and light as possible. (I sleep on a grounding bottom sheet now. It’s amazing how I fall asleep so quickly now and sleep so soundly. I highly recommend them. I wake up feeling so rested and refreshed.)

· Write down a list of things you must do tomorrow. (This will get all of those thoughts out of your brain about the next day.)

· Think calming thoughts that are positive, uplifting, and filled with gratitude and thankfulness for 20 minutes right before bedtime. (You might write down five things that you are grateful for, or five miracles that happened to you or your child today, or five things that you want to happen tomorrow).

· Stay hydrated. Drink healthy, hydrating fluids during the day, but don’t drink too much right before bed. Then you won’t have a need to get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

· Try a sleep CD to help relax the mind and body. You might also listen to recorded sounds of rain or ocean waves to help with sleep. They can relax your mind.

· There is a technology company that makes non-transdermal patches. I use them, and there is specific patch for better sleep.  It is called Silent Night. I have been wearing these patches for the past year and a half.
I noticed almost immediately that I was sleeping more soundly and I even began to have positive vivid dreams. If you wish to know more, click here to see how patches with phototherapy works. (Contact me (214-202-9243 and text me first), if you wish to know more.)

· I suggest you try to eat lighter at dinner, and give yourself at least three hours between your meal and bed. If your body has to digest and process food, then it has to work hard, and it’s not able to rest and restore. Give your body a break and have some soup for dinner or a light vegetarian meal. It would help to make your breakfast and lunch the main meals of the day.

· If digestion is an issue, lie down on your left side for about 20 minutes. According to Ayurveda healing tradition, when we sleep on the left side, our lymphatic system drains more efficiently, our heart beats more smoothly, our spleen function is supported, our bile flows easier, and because of gravity, our food moves more effortlessly from the small intestine to the large intestine. When you lie on the left side, the stomach and pancreas hang naturally, allowing for optimal and efficient digestion. That is good advice comes from an old Ayurvedic remedy.
If your body is acidic, try drinking a ½ teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water to neutralize the acid. I add a pinch of unrefined, mineral-rich sea salt to this as well. What an easy, inexpensive solution!

· There are some sleep enhancing food and beverages. Drink herbal teas (chamomile tea is a good choice), which can encourage rest and sleep. Note: You may want to drink this an hour or two before bed, so you are not compelled to get up during the night. Also eating tart cherries or consuming tart cherry juice can assist in obtaining a better night’s sleep.

· Take a relaxing evening bath or foot-bath as this will calm you before bedtime. Fill up a warm or hot bath and soak for ten minutes or more. I like to put mineral salts (Magnesium Chloride Bath Flakes) in my bath. Right before I step into the tub, I add a few drops of one of my favorite essential oils. I add them last, so they won’t evaporate before I can get in and enjoy the aroma.
For night-time relaxation, my favorite essential oil is lavender.
My formula for my bath water is 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 cup Magnesium Chloride Bath Flakes, 1⁄4 cup of baking soda, and 5–10 drops of essential oil, like lavender or frankincense.

After your shower or foot bath, dry off and put on a soothing body lotion or cream to seal in the moisture. This helps avoid itchy, dry skin during the night. If you’re like me, you sleep better in comfortable clothing and sheets, so you might splurge on the quality of your bed linens and night clothes. It makes me feel better, and I look forward to putting them on and getting into bed. I feel like I’m pampering myself.

I hope one or more of these suggestions will help you get a deep, relaxing, and restorative night’s sleep. I wish you sweet dreams.

The post Ideas For Re-establishing Your Health With Dr. Robert O. Young appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

As people embrace the mental and emotional benefits of walking, let’s not forget the physical impact it brings. Walking 10,000 steps a day, for example, boosts your heart strength, sheds extra body fat, stabilizes your blood sugar, and improves your brain’s performance. In fact, 10000 steps a day is the equivalent of doing five 30-minute workouts a week.

The best thing about walking is that it’s something we naturally do, and with a little push, getting your steps in is just a matter of balancing this simple exercise with your daily life and work hours. Here, we’ll go over some ways you can approach walking as a daily exercise, even when you’re busy:

Walk to reflect

We’ve discussed this in a previous post, but daily stress is inevitable. And while we may not be able to prevent stress from affecting us and our loved ones, we can adopt habits like practicing yoga, deep breathing, and exercising to handle stress more effectively.

Walking meditation is a good mindfulness practice, allowing you to reflect on things you are grateful for while getting your workout in. By incorporating slow walks into your mindfulness exercises, you can even improve your posture, boost your confidence, and increase overall wellness.

Walk to socialize

It may be hard to find time to do your walking when everybody seems to want a piece of your time. Fortunately, walking can be a group activity. Aside from the shared accountability, walking with others allows you to hit two birds with one stone since you can also use this time to discuss various pressing matters.

And if you find it hard to motivate other people around you, why not take your pet with you? After all, studies show that dog owners are more physically active than non-owners, improving their blood pressure and decreasing stress reactivity. If you need extra motivation to walk and get some daily steps in, try doing it as a favor for your furry pal. Overall, walking can be a great bonding experience for everyone in your life.

Walk to avoid being desk-bound

Most of the time, a common excuse for not walking enough in a day is because we are bound to our desks and our work. Studies have long been done on the harmful effects of prolonged sitting, point to developing muscle pains on top of chronic illnesses and changes to overall posture. While work is no doubt important, it’s just as important — if not more — to take care of yourself.

Treat walking time as a break from long periods of sitting at your desk. Not only is it good for your back and muscles, it will also allow your eyes some resting time away from harmful blue light in screens. While walking, you can also do some light stretches to come back to your desk more energized than before.

Ultimately, walking is a simple but incredibly effective exercise that helps us stay fit. And because we do it every day, the motivation we need to get our steps in shouldn’t be hard to come by. In fact, it’s all around us.

The post How to Get Your Steps In, Even If You’re Busy appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Many of you may be cooking outdoors this month. This is a great vegan/vegetarian version to serve plant-based diners. I used to take a portobello mushroom with me whenever I went to cookouts and I wanted to have something plant-based to eat with everyone. I have made this for many non-vegetarian Texans with great success, much to their surprise!

This was one of Larry Hagman’s (also known as J. R. Ewing, in the television show “Dallas”) favorite meals. I would make this for him when I was his chef & nutritionist, when he had throat cancer and diabetes. I had him on a very strict healthy diet, and I would serve this to him when he was craving something “meaty,” like a hamburger.

Mushrooms are nutrient-dense and have fewer calories than meat. They have also been found to prevent cancer.

According to a study conducted by The University of Western Australia in Perth, eating mushrooms daily may reduce breast cancer risk by nearly two-thirds.

The study, conducted in China, looked at more than 2000 women, half of whom had suffered from breast cancer. Researchers found that the women who ate a third of an ounce of fresh mushrooms every day had lowered their risk of developing a tumor by 64 percent. (1)

Dried mushrooms didn’t have quite the same benefit, but still reduced the risk “by around half.”(2)

It is certainly great to have the reinforcement of knowledge that mushrooms are such a healthy food.

Portobello mushrooms contain a variety of B-complex vitamins (including vitamin B6, thiamine, and folate), are an excellent source of riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and niacin. Protein (complex amino acids), selenium, lysine, zinc, copper, manganese, and iron are some additional benefits of eating this mushroom.

Portobello mushrooms are a great alternative to meat, because of their meaty texture and flavor.

The quantities in this recipe are enough for one person.

Ingredients:

1 large portobello mushroom

3 T. organic coconut liquid amino sauce or teriyaki sauce

1 whole, sprouted-grain hamburger bun or bread (I love the Alvarado Bakery hamburger buns)

¼ cup sliced goat cheese (from goats that are grass-fed and humanely raised, or you can use a vegan goat cheese)

Directions:

1. Brush off the mushroom and remove the stem. (Save the stem to cut up and use in a stir-fry or pasta dish later.)

2. Soak the mushroom in your choice of sauce for at least five minutes (although 30 minutes is even better).

3. Grill, or bake at 350°F, just until thoroughly warm, making sure it is moist with the amino sauce or teriyaki sauce.

4. Warm or toast bun.

5. Place the goat cheese (if using) on top of mushroom and leave in oven for just a couple of minutes to soften the cheese.

6. Remove mushroom from grill or oven and place on bun.

7. Serve immediately.

Variations:

1. For a vegan version, you can use sliced avocado instead of goat cheese. It’s a really delicious addition to this sandwich.

2. You can add a few leaves of romaine lettuce, or tomato slices, or onion, but I found it is simply delicious just with the goat cheese.

Save On Health Insurance Premiums

Living healthier could mean you qualify for lower health insurance premiums. For example, if you have a high-deductible health plan (or HDHP) then you may qualify for a Health Savings Plan (or HSA) and can end up saving more money on health-related expenses because it will be tax-free.

Dine-In Instead Of Eating-Out

Suppose you’ve become more accustomed to dining out than eating in. But you’ve now decided that the only way to reach your health and wellness goals is by following a customized eating plan, and eating out just won’t help you reach your diet goals any longer. You could opt to eat at home instead. This way could create a personalized meal plan for yourself as well as save on money too by not splurging on food that comes at restaurant prices.

Choosing to go vegetarian can also cut down on your food costs. Most of the money we spend at the grocery store is attributed to meat and dairy products. Nancy Addison of Organic Healthy Life has plenty of tips and resources for helping you to cut out meat and increase your consumption of organic goods. This is one choice that can be great for your body and your budget.

Walk Instead Of Driving

Another way you can save a pretty penny while enjoying a healthier lifestyle is by saving on transportation costs if you could walk, jog, or cycle to work, especially if the commute is short and you do so on a regular basis. Plus, you’ll no doubt be getting fitter and your actions will be beneficial for the environment too.

Hire Professionals To Spring-Clean Your Home

Perhaps, you need some help on the home front when it comes to giving your home a deep non-toxic cleaning once a month. While this may seem like an extra expense, this could end up saving you money. Plus, it may free up time so that you can focus on your health journey more.

Check Your Home For Health Hazards

Even with a great monthly professional deep clean, there are some health issues that can sneak through. For example, pests can become an issue that you need to contract with a professional to eliminate. But an even more overlooked issue is mold. Even a small plumbing leak can lead to dangerous levels of mold in your home. And if it turns out to be black mold, that is a major problem. To prevent these issues, look online for “plumbers in my area” and read through the reviews to find a few potential options. Then, have them come out for written estimates before committing to one choice. That way, you’ll find someone with reasonable prices and good customer service who can help eliminate the leak – and mold threat – quickly and safely.

Buy Food In-Season

Suppose you’ve decided to cut out meat to consume a plant-based diet instead, then it may be better to buy fruits and veggies in bulk and in-season to take advantage of any savings or discounts. Better yet, you could even grow your own produce. That way, you’ll have access to the freshest of ingredients, and you’ll save on grocery experiences by not having to purchase these items at a cost plus markup price.

Do Free Outdoor Activities

If you haven’t been noticing outdoor gyms popping up everywhere, then you have been missing out on a fun (free) outdoor activity to get fit and make new friends in the process. You can also choose to run, cycle, walk, or rollerblade around your neighborhood or local park.

You can also spend about $20 to invest in a few disc golf sets. It’s a fun activity that you can do alone, with friends, or with your family almost anywhere. There are disc golf courses across the country, and they are usually free or a few dollars for general park admission.

Make Money By Leading A Healthier Lifestyle

You can do more than save money by getting healthy. You may also be able to make money! For example, you can share how you managed to save money while getting healthy, and potentially make some serious passive income through affiliate marketing. Or you could choose to start a business selling athletic equipment or personal training. If you decide to go the business route, then it’s important to market your business adequately. You can create business cards with an online template maker and customize them to reflect your branding. If you have a logo, be sure to include it along with a font and color schemes that reflect your business.

In summary, living healthily will probably mean having to make short-term sacrifices in order to see long-term results. Furthermore, you may have to be more creative in how you approach this lifestyle so that you can save money whilst taking advantage of the many benefits that leading a healthier lifestyle offers. Be aware of your surroundings, keep your home free of germs and mold, fill your fridge with organic veggies, and find other creative ways to save money while you get healthier. Nonetheless, you are sure to reap the rewards soon enough and be happier for it because you decided to take positive steps forward.

This is an easy recipe that takes about 10 min. to make. I use only organic ingredients. This recipe yields about twenty-five 1-inch cookie dough balls.

Ingredients:

1 cup old-fashioned oats

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

1/2 cup ground flax seed

1/2 cup peanut butter or sun butter

1/3 cup raw, unrefined honey

1 tablespoon chia or hemp seeds

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Dye-free sprinkles, for rolling

1 tsp. mineral-rich pink salt (Himalayan or Real are good choices)

Directions

1. Place the oats, chocolate chips, coconut flakes, flaxseed, peanut butter, honey, chia seeds, pink salt, and vanilla in a food processor and pulse until thoroughly combined or you can have the children combine it in a bowl, which is really fun for them.

2. Scoop the dough with a small ice cream scoop then use your hands to roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the sprinkles. Serve or refrigerate in an airtight container.

The post No-Bake Cookie Balls Recipe – Gluten-free, Raw, & Vegetarian appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

We need to cleanse, because we acquire toxins in our bodies on a regular basis. In today’s world, an estimated one billion humans are exposed regularly to environmental toxins, including mercury, which is more common than most people realize. (This is especially true for people who eat seafood or salt taken from today’s polluted oceans.)

We live in a world that is literally saturated with toxins. We can get toxins by breathing in polluted air, taking showers or drinking chlorinated tap water, eating foods when we don’t know their source or preparation method, pesticides, toxic cleaning fluids, dry-cleaning fluids, pest control fluids, and wearing new, unwashed clothing. We can get mercury toxicity from energy-saving light bulbs (these emit a toxic mercury vapor into the air that we breathe), seafood (tuna and swordfish are particularly high in mercury), most vaccines, some body care products, water, and amalgam fillings.

Over one billion humans are exposed to high levels of toxic metals and metalloids in the environment, including mercury. The number of persons suffering from subclinical metal poisoning is believed to be several million.

Some common symptoms of being toxic (and being in need of a detoxification cleanse) are: constipation, gas and bloating, diarrhea, back pain, joint and muscle pain, irritable bowel syndrome, allergies, insatiable hunger, itchy ears, nose, or anus, unpleasant sensations in the stomach, nervousness, grumpiness, chronic fatigue, lethargy or apathy, various skin problems, problems sleeping, nutritional deficiencies or anemia, problems with the immune system, teeth grinding or clenching, weight gain, forgetfulness, and blurry vision.

One of the most damaging toxins that we are exposed to is mercury. Mercury is a neurotoxin, and it’s found in amalgam fillings, vaccines, seafood, personal care products,
light bulbs, batteries, electronics, water, and more.

Studies show that mercury, even in small amounts, can damage the central nervous system causing irritability, fatigue, mood swings, behavioral problems, tremors, headaches, hearing loss, dysarthria ( a speech sound disorder), incoordination, hallucinations, loss of peripheral vision, “pins and needles” feelings, usually in the hands, feet, and around the mouth, lack of coordination of movements, ringing in your ears, insomnia, and even death.

If you have you been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, MS, fibromyalgia, Autism, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig’s disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, or a brain tumor, you may actually have mercury poisoning.

Mercury can damage the brain, kidneys, liver and central nervous system. Infants and children are particularly vulnerable to the toxic effects of mercury.

Mercury affects male children at a higher rate than females.

Mercury in the cardiovascular system, “even in low doses can cause hypertension and alterations in endothelial function.”

Frequently, people tell me that they can’t lose weight no matter what they do. This can be because the body is holding onto toxins by surrounding them with fat cells. This happens when the body gets overloaded with toxins. In order to protect you from the toxins, your body will surround them with fat to protect you from their harmful effects. Until you can detoxify the body, it will hold onto those protective layers of fat. When you do a detoxification cleanse, many people find that they easily lose weight. This is because the body no longer has a need for the fat it was protecting you with.

Additionally, our bodies become acidic through stress and the foods we eat. These toxins and acids hurt our bodies deep within our cells. How can the body have a clean liver, blood, or lymphatic system if it is filled with toxins, acid, and waste? A clean intestinal system and frequent, thorough bowel movements are key elements of a truly healthy system.

We absorb most of our nutrients though the intestinal wall. If it is clean, we are able to absorb the nutrients. If it is not clean, but is instead full of waste and rancid debris, then the body won’t get the nutrients it needs. Dr. Anthony Bassler, a gastroenterologist, said in 1942, “Every physician should realize the intestinal toxemias (poisons) are the most important primary and contributing cause of many disorders and diseases of the body.”

We also need to cleanse because our intestines can become thick with plaque over time. This “mucoid plaque” can result from consuming foods like milk, wheat, and meat. It can be thick and rubbery. It can even look a little like a rope when it exits in the body.

In his book, “Tissue Cleansing through Bowel Management,”
Dr. Bernard Jensen, DC, ND, PhD addresses this: “The heavy mucus coating in the colon thickens and becomes a host of putrefaction. The blood capillaries to the colon begin to pick up the toxins, poisons, and noxious debris as they seep through the bowel wall. All tissues and organs of the body are now taking on toxic substances. Here is the beginning of true autointoxication on a physiological level.

One autopsy revealed a colon to be 9 inches in diameter with a passage through it no larger than a pencil. The rest was caked up layer upon layer of encrusted fecal material. This accumulation can have the consistency of truck tire rubber. It’s that hard and black. Another autopsy revealed a stagnant colon to weigh in at an incredible 40 pounds.“

Dr. Richard Anderson, ND, NMD addresses the subject of plaque as well. Dr. Anderson, an expert on colon cleansing, wrote “Cleanse and Purify Thyself,” Volumes 1 & 2. In an article on colon plaque, he says: “The phrase, “mucoid plaque” is a coined term that I use to describe various conditions found throughout the body, especially in hollow organs and the alimentary canal. It is a substance that the body naturally creates under unnatural conditions, such as attacks from acids, drugs, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals.“

Professional cleanses, like colonics or enemas, can remove this old leftover waste and plaque from the intestinal tract.

The good news is that there are really effective cleanses that can help you safely remove these toxins from your body. I recommend cleansing for a minimum of 10 days and as long as 21 days to detoxify the body and adjust its pH on a regular basis. This will keep the inner environment of the body’s digestive system cleaner, healthier, and able to support a vibrant immune system.

Along with this comes an additional benefit. A major part of the body’s happiness chemical, serotonin, is synthesized in the gastrointestinal tract. It is no wonder people feel happier and better when their bowels are clean and functioning in the optimum way! I do a month-long cleanse every January, to start off the New Year fresh and renewed after the holidays.

Each time you cleanse, it will get easier. Eventually, or maybe very quickly, you will see a difference in how you feel.

I do a healthy chlorophyll and fiber-rich cleanse every month, and I recommend it to my clients. You can do as little or as much as you find is best for you. I use products from Chemical Free Body.
I use the juice formula, “Green 85” and the gut and toxin detox supplements. I also use the “Green 85″ drink mix as a super-food meal when I need something quick and nourishing. This is my version of a “fast-food meal.”

We should all try to keep our body, especially our liver, as clean and high in nutrients as possible for ultimate health and
well-being. This way we will absorb our nutrients more effectively.

I believe the items that are lacking in most people’s diet today
are healthy types of fiber, chlorophyll-rich green foods, enzymes, and probiotics. The drink mix “Green 85” by Chemical Free Body, has all of those. Quite simply, it is made up of healthy ingredients that most people lack in their normal everyday diet.

The nutrients will feed your body, as well as flush and pull toxins and acids out of your cells. The fiber will absorb these toxins and expand like a sponge. It is important to drink a lot of water, which will create a cleaning effect and help move it through your body. Along with the sponge-like fiber, the toxic particles, plaque, and other debris (that might be lodged in the intestines) will be dragged out.

Each time you cleanse, it will clean out a little more. Think of the layers of an onion. When you start, you will get one layer, and the next time, you will get the next layer. You may eventually find this is a good part of your daily or weekly routine.
I do this cleanse a few times a week, year-round, as a normal part of my life/diet.

All of the food you consume should be efficiently digested, the nutrients absorbed, and the waste eliminated. If you are eating three times per day, then you should be having bowel movements three times per day. The more fiber you ingest, the easier and more efficiently the waste will be eliminated. There is not a set time period for this, but ideally it should be anywhere from 3–12 hours after each meal.

You can test your digestive function by eating a meal of raw or slightly steamed red beets. The deep red color in the bowel movement will allow you to see when that meal is eliminated.
This is an easy way to see if your body is eliminating quickly
and efficiently.

If you feel uncomfortable and are not having bowel movements, you may want to get a colonic series to help get your system cleaned out and moving again. Do this before you do any type of cleanse. You don’t want to add more to the already clogged up bowels.

Drink lots of water and fresh green organic vegetable juices to keep the toxins, acid, and waste moving out of the body.
This is so important!

These cleanses are cleaning out the inside of your body. With the removal of the plaque, waste, and debris, you will also be alkalizing your body with the super detox foods.

You will have to make a personal decision about the length of your cleanse. Many physicians think 21 days is the best length. You may want to consult me or your physician before starting a cleanse, or do the cleanse under his or her guidance. Many wonderful physicians and clinics have juice fasts, cleanses, and other programs you can do under their guidance.

The following will add to the effectiveness of the cleanse and rejuvenation of the body and spirit:
1. Adding some magnesium chloride flakes to your baths
or foot-soaks
2. Taking infrared saunas
3. exercising
4. sweating
5. laughing regularly

Join me for an adventure in food, wellness, peace, and a healthy environment! Our challenge for the month of March is to exercise daily for a minimum of 20 minutes, eat something organic, plant-based and nutrient-dense at least once per day, and do something joyfully creative and fun! Send me your stories!

As summer comes near, let’s all revitalize our health, clean out the old, make room for the new, get healthy, and create more energy in our lives.

We all want to be our healthiest and have radiance from the inside out. We may also wish to get in shape for the warmer weather, when we wear shorts or a swimsuit.

So, where to start?

Eating locally grown, fresh organic foods has many benefits for health and weight loss. When we get healthier, our weight usually adjusts itself.

Local, fresh, organic food that has been ripened on the tree or vine is packed with salvestrols. These have natural cancer-fighting properties and more nutrients. For example, Vitamin C, chromium, and sulfur are a few critical nutrients that are very fragile and often get damaged in storage, packing, and transport.

I am always encouraging you to purchase organic, non-GMO foods because chemical fertilizers and pesticides destroy these critical nutrients in the soil and food, as well as add high synthetic estrogen to the foods, which can seriously throw off your hormone levels. This high level of synthetic estrogen is especially harmful to children, particularly male children.

Glyphosate (an herbicide and known carcinogen), the commonly used toxic poison that kills all life it touches, is harmful for many reasons. The most harmful reason is that glyphosate blocks the shikimate pathway, which is critical for the body to obtain “essential” aromatic amino acids, which are vital for health.

Even in the colder months, I’ve found that the local farmers have an abundance of fresh, organic vine-ripened foods from their greenhouses.

Find a local farmers market and enjoy a weekend outing to stock up on fresh food for the next few days or week, and meet a local farmer.

You can look up Farmers Markets near you by using the Local Harvest website and the NRDC (National Resources Defense Council’s) Local Food website to see what markets are near you.

By eating more fresh, whole, organic, non-GMO food in its natural form, you can restore your health, vitality, and a healthy weight.

This can be as simple as having a diet that is 80 percent whole, raw, organic, non-GMO, unprocessed food. It can have life-changing results.

Whole, raw, organic foods will feed the body on a deep, cellular level without stressing it as much as cooked food does.

People who consume fresh, uncooked foods find they don’t need to eat as much and they feel more satisfied. I think it is because their body is truly getting the nutrition it needs.

One big reason that fresh, whole plant-based foods are so beneficial to health is because they are high in fiber. Fiber adds bulk to your diet and fills you up more effectively than refined, processed foods. Many of the thicker, denser fibers in foods, like cruciferous vegetables, are called pre-biotics, because they support the health of the immune system, which is made up mostly of probiotics (good bacteria).

Eating more fiber-rich foods can help control your appetite so you take in fewer calories. Studies show that a diet that is high in fiber, made up of fresh fruits and veggies, can also help the body reverse diabetes, heart disease, and many cancers.

So, buy a rainbow of colorful, fresh, organic fruits and veggies for your meals this month. Give your body the nutrients it needs to create the health and vitality you desire.

Our body is our temple. Let’s honor that temple and give it the quality food it truly deserves. In this way, you will have radiant health from the inside out!

The post Create A Program For Health & Vitality! appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

It’s spring, and time for a fresh start after the long, cold winter.

We’ve had the house all closed up, and now it’s time to air it out, let in some clean, fresh air, dust out the spiders or little critters that may have joined us for the winter, and brighten up our home and environment.

A few simple things to start with are:

1. Open up the windows and doors and let the fresh air into your house. Replace the filters of your air conditioning system.

2. Wash your windows. It can be an amazing way to make your home or office look clean and sparkling.

3. Bring in a beautiful plant to lift your spirits and help clean toxins out of the air.

4. Clean out your refrigerator and pantry.

5. Clean out all of the corners of the rooms (floor and ceiling), behind furniture (if you can), under furniture and beds.

6. De-clutter closets, rooms, drawers… Start to redistribute or throw out things that you haven’t used in a year or more, or that are old, stained, broken or don’t make you feel happy.

7. Wash curtains, bedding pads, turn mattresses, and freshen-up thoroughly.

8. Go through piles of paper, organize them into files, or discard them. I color-code my files so they are easier to find.

One thing to be aware of as you are doing your cleaning, is that most of our cleaning care products today are a mixture of synthetic chemicals, including known allergens. These products are based on age-old recipes, that used to include natural ingredients.

But over the years, many of our cleaning products have changed, and many of them now contain toxic, carcinogenic ingredients. These can cause health problems when we are exposed to them on a regular basis.

The federal Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act, which governs the safety of cleaning and personal care products, does not require manufacturers to substantiate the safety of their products before selling them.

For example, some US soaps, detergents, shampoos and conditioners will often contain two chemical preservatives — methylisothiazolinone and methylchloroisothiazolinone.

These chemicals have been banned in the European Union for use in personal care products, on the grounds that they are sensitizing allergens.

The U.S. has no restrictions, even though your skin is repeatedly exposed to these substances when used. Product labels can list “fragrance” as an ingredient. “Fragrance” is a generic term, which allows a number of carcinogenic chemicals to be added to a product in order to make it smell good, without having to be listed.

These chemical mixtures often contain toxic individual ingredients that have been linked to cancer, endocrine disruption and serious allergic reactions.

By using the term “fragrance” on the label, companies can avoid telling consumers the truth about what is actually in the product. If one company sells their products in Europe and in the US, they can make a particular product with two different recipes and two separate labels, but they will look virtually identical.

In Europe, where the regulation of ingredients in products is much stricter, the container will have to state that it contains seven known allergens in its “fragrance.” In the US, the list of known toxins is not required. As is the case with all (personal and household) products, companies can use almost any mixture of chemicals they choose.

The US federal law regulating the personal care and household products industry has one of the weakest regulatory programs in the world, and it remains almost unchanged since 1938.

The quality of the ingredients in your household cleaning products is extremely important. Buy environmentally safe, non-toxic home cleaners. If you would like to see a list of highly rated green products that are carefully rated by the EWG (a non-profit group that does independent analyses of products for their safety, non-toxicity, and effectiveness), click here.

Here is another thing to be aware of:

Since our pets and children are much lower to the ground, their faces and noses can pick up toxic chemicals much easier. This can cause many health problems, including nerve damage and allergies, since these toxins go directly into the bloodstream through the skin, without being filtered.

Household cleaners and body care items, such as soaps, detergents, household cleaners, toothpastes, shampoo, and conditioners should ideally be non-toxic and non-carcinogenic, in order to protect you, your family, pets, friends and the environment.

Have you ever read the ingredients and warnings on your bottle of cleaner?

The other day, I was at a friend’s home and she had just mopped her floor. I got an immediate headache and started feeling sick. I asked her if I could look on the bottle of the cleaner she had used. The label on the bottle had a warning that stated if you breathe in the fumes of this product, to call the poison control immediately.

I told her that many of these cleaners are highly toxic and can cause more harm than good. She wanted to kill germs, so she thought she was doing the right thing.

Her grandchild crawling on the floor and her little 16-year-old dog, whose face is always very close to the floor, would be much better off if she used non-toxic cleaners.

Non-toxic cleaning can give you a wonderful feeling, knowing that your family’s and pet’s health is protected, and that your home is a place for everyone’s bodies to rest and regenerate in a clean, healthy environment.

You also might want to consider going back to making your own cleaning products, using completely safe, non-toxic ingredients. They are extremely easy to make, and very inexpensive. Invite your children to help you, like mixing recipes in the kitchen. (Make it a science project!)

Most of the ingredients are staples that you already have in your kitchen pantry. With a few simple mixtures, you can easily transform your house into a non-toxic, healthy home.

Non-Toxic Household Cleaner Recipes

Basic Cleaner for Surfaces
Hydrogen Peroxide (3%) and White Vinegar
In a study conducted at Virginia Tech University on household cleaners that kill germs (including salmonella), the most effective cleaner was a combination of 3% hydrogen peroxide (like you purchase at the pharmacy) in conjunction with white vinegar. The hydrogen peroxide and vinegar were put into SEPARATE spray bottles. One was sprayed on a contaminated surface, immediately followed by the other. Used in this way, the sprays were more effective at killing germs than any store bought product. It didn’t matter which one was sprayed first, the vinegar or the peroxide.
DO NOT be tempted to combine the hydrogen peroxide and the vinegar in one bottle, because it results in peracetic acid, which is potentially harmful. Use the 3% hydrogen peroxide from the pharmacy instead of a food grade hydrogen peroxide, which is much stronger and needs to be used with extreme caution.

Window Cleaner
Combine 2 cups of water, 1⁄4 cup of rubbing alcohol (isopropyl), 1⁄4 cup white vinegar, 2 tsp. corn starch and a 1⁄4 cup lemon juice in a spray bottle. Shake well before using. Spray this mixture on glass or windows, and wipe with a micro-fiber cloth.

Scrub for Counters, Sinks, and Stoves
Combine 2 cups baking soda, 1⁄2 cup Castile soap, 4 teaspoons vegetable glycerin, and a few drops essential oil (lavender, peppermint, or tea tree). Store in a sealed jar.

Drain Opener
Pour 1⁄2 cup baking soda into the drain, and then pour in 1⁄2 cup white vinegar. Let stand 30 minutes. Flush with boiling water.

Furniture Polish
Combine 1⁄4 cup olive oil with 1⁄2 cup white vinegar. Add 2 teaspoons lemon juice. Apply to furniture, and then wipe.

Toilet Bowl Cleaner
Sprinkle the bowl of the toilet with baking soda and add in a little white vinegar. Wait 30 minutes. Then scrub. You can also add 1⁄4 cup borax.

Purchased Cleaners
I buy Thieves Household Cleaner, and other Thieves cleaners made by Young Living Oils. It is my favorite manufactured cleaner to use on the floor and walls. It is safe for septic systems, has no harsh chemical smell, and is effective for deep cleaning.

I also like non-toxic cleaner brands Mrs. Meyer’s, Seventh Generation, and Planet. I buy these non-toxic cleaners for dishwashers, laundry, dishes, and more.

Creating that healthy home and office environment that supports you and your family’s health and well-being can be extremely rewarding.

Don’t put it off another day.
Put on some uplifting music and start your clean cleaning today!

The post Detoxify Aluminum From Our Body For Better Health appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

As in the past, it is ALWAYS a good idea to be prepared and have plenty of supplies on hand. However, with all of the recent happenings in the world today, I highly recommend to you, now more than ever before, the importance of stocking up on all of the essential items you might need right now, instead of waiting until something happens and the shelves become bare.
At the current moment, even as I am writing this, there are problems with transporting food, getting parts, and there are full container ships in port with no workers to unload them. The freeze last year killed a third of the wheat crops, and many other crops have been devastated due to all of the other natural disasters.

Prices are starting to rise, although items are still currently available for the most part. But with all of these things and more happening on a daily basis, there could possibly be some shortages of foods and other items taking place.

There is no reason to panic, but I recommend that you make a list and try to stock up on the basic supplies that are necessary for your and your family’s lives. Then you will be calm and ready in case there is any shortage of food, water, medical supplies, or other necessary items.
Whether you are getting ready for a storm, a hurricane, or a shortage of provisions, it is always a good idea to keep some emergency supplies ready for yourself and your family.
Here are some ideas for what you might need.

The best foods are those that do not need to be eaten immediately and can be stored for a while. Foods that you can put in a bin and store are dried pasta, chips, crackers, sauces, jars or cans of food, (make sure you have a can opener), cans or jars of vegetables, beans, lentils, fish, or meats, boxes of alternative kinds of milk, powdered milk, cereals, protein powders, green food powders, superfoods, teas, mineral-rich salt, spices, nut butter, food bars, flours, packs of organic seeds (that you can sprout or grow), coconut oil, avocado oil, raw apple cider vinegar, miso, raw organic honey, supplements for health (like vitamin C). baking soda, baking powder, baby foods, and food for pets.

Clean some glass bottles and fill them with water and label them. Keep them together, where you can easily access them if you need them. You can use wine boxes that have dividers in them, and stack them in your garage or utility room. These will come in handy for basic water needs.
Buy some extra bottles of mineral-rich water and coconut water. These do not go bad, and it is always a good idea to have extra water on hand. (You might also consider getting a water filter to use without electricity, along with extra water filters.)

I would purchase extra body care provisions, including bandages, salves, medical supplements, magnesium chloride bath flakes, oil, or lotions, soaps, hydrogen peroxide, vinegar, borax, personal care products, eye care extras, dental care items, baby care items, elder care items, and toilet paper.
Purchase anything you use on a regular basis: cleaning supplies, pet supplies, baby care supplies, and garden supplies.

I would also recommend getting extra candles, batteries, matches, flashlights, solar chargers, a towel, maybe a deck of cards or a game that doesn’t require technology, a book, your bible or book for your faith, paper, pen, and emergency numbers for people you might need to call. Write them down in a book.

Another good item would be Walkie-Talkies for your family and neighbors to use, a portable, non-electric outdoor cooker and supplies, extra blankets or winter clothing, a tarp, some tools, and duct tape.

I recommend that you put your important papers, cash, and other important items in a safe place that is easy to get and take with you if you need to leave in a hurry.

Other supplies you might think about purchasing are electronics, computers and supplies, and car supplies (oil, tires, battery, gas can fill with gas), extra ink for your printer, extra paper, or backup drive.

You might also consider buying presents for future occasions. That could make life much less stressful if you can purchase them now.

It is always smart to think ahead and you will be prepared for anything.
I hope this helps you.

The post Dr. Bill McGraw & Nancy Addison Discussing Mercury Toxicity, Video appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

We want to protect our children from harm in all aspects of their lives, and a healthy diet is a crucial way of protecting them. The Journal of the American Dietetic Association, published in 1998, showed that children consumed an average of 29 teaspoons of sugar each day, and it is frightening to think how much sugar they can ingest in a single day around Halloween and the holidays.

Sugar breaks down the immune system and stresses the body severely – contributing to diabetes, obesity, tooth decay and a host of other health problems. Anything high in fructose, like high-fructose corn syrup or agave nectar, disrupts the body’s ability to make insulin, as well as being a hormone disrupter.

Halloween, however, allows a parent the unique opportunity to use the spooky theme to make new dishes seem fun and exciting. Did you ever think that green food is the perfect choice for a spooky green ET smoothie?

This wonderful, raw, nutrient-dense green smoothie drink or food can help counteract all the sugar-dense foods they may be eating elsewhere. Children’s organs are forming into their twenties, and the food they eat goes directly into the formation of these organs. Therefore, it is crucial that the foods they eat have a pure, nutrient-dense nature. This makes choosing organic food much more important for children than adults.

Glyphosate, the leading herbicide used on non-organically grown crops, was originally patented as an antibiotic. This saturates the food and kills all life that it is growing in. Dr. Richard N. Olree Jr DC described this non-organic food as eating an antibiotic with every bite, on an interview on Diverse Health Services. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiWl8rTP2XI

Dr. Olree said that when we eat foods that are grown or killed then it is like taking an antibiotic every time you take a bite of food. Question: Would you want to take an antibiotic with every bite? Well, he said that is what we are doing when we eat non-organically grown food.

The food industry uses this herbicide (glyphosate) now to saturate and kill crops like: sugar cane, soy, corn, grains, lentils, oats, beans, cotton, canola, and more, so they can harvest them quicker.

Antibiotics are non-selective. Antibiotics Kill All Life. Our immune system is made of beneficial bacteria. Antibiotics kill all the bad bacteria, but they are also destroying all the beneficial bacteria as well. Antibiotics destroy the beneficial bacteria that comprise our immune system, which is supposed to keep the bad bacteria in check. Ideally, we want a strong immune system made up of healthy beneficial bacteria. So eating organically grown food is important. Non-GMO is not enough, food should be Organic and Non-GMO.

I highly recommend making a healthy, organic, green smoothie as a special treat during Halloween. It can help adjust the bodies’ PH balance, as well as being packed with nutrition, enzymes, and fiber. Drinking something green may sound spooky to you at first, but give it a try; you may be surprised by the taste.

When we introduce new foods, it may taste unusual at first, mainly because you are not used to eating that food. If you stick with it for about 10 days of 2 weeks, this gives your body a chance to develop new taste buds adjusted for this new food. So, if a healthier change of diet is desired, just stay the course and the foods will start tasting better and better.

When adjusting a child’s diet to include better quality food, a helpful method of encouragement can be rewarding them for trying this new food (a few bites at least 10 times or for two weeks). There is a good chance that when those two weeks are over, they may actually like the new food. Gold stars, a special outing, playing a game with them, or a morning of art can be wonderful rewards for children trying new and interesting dishes.

When your child comes down for breakfast on Halloween week, have this green smoothie ready and know that you’re giving them something nutritious and share the experience with them.

It is best to make this drink in a good blender, because it can turn nuts, seeds, unskinned fruit, and vegetables to a liquid more easily. This drink is rich in phytonutrients and vitamin C, so try to drink it within 20 minutes, because the nutrients begin to dissipate after that time.

Iron is more absorbable into the body when vitamin C is present, so if you use baby spinach, this drink will be rich with vitamin C and Iron. In addition, leafy greens, such as the ones in this recipe, are high in protein without the unhealthy effects of many types of meat. Spinach is actually 45% protein!

Recipe for a Green Smoothie

Ingredients

1 cup Leafy Greens (fresh watercress, romaine, red leaf lettuce, sprouts – in any combination and torn into pieces)

1 tsp. Broccoli Sprout Powder

2 Whole Fruits (pear, apple, mango, papaya, pineapple, or combination) chopped into chucks with seeds and stems removed. (You can also use berries)

3 – 4 Dates (pitted and soaked in water to soften)

2 cups Mineral-rich, Non-chlorinated Water (more water can be added to desired consistency)

1 Tablespoon Flax Seed Oil (cold pressed)

1 tsp. Lime or Lemon Juice (freshly juiced and used immediately)

Directions

Put all ingredients in the blender and blend. Serve immediately.

Note:

I order my raw, organically grown broccoli sprout powder from the Indoor Organic Gardens of Poughkeepsie. I put it in my food throughout the day. You can mix it in mashed potatoes, apple sauce, cool soups, hummus, and more. It doesn’t have much flavor, so it’s easy to add this nutrient-dense food to your meals.(Use the code “Nancy” and they will give you a discount. They grow amazing sprouts and they can overnight them to you.)

Why add broccoli sprout powder to your diet?
One study showed that sulforaphane (Broccoli sprouts have high levels of sulforaphane) reduced the size and number of breast cancer cells by up to 75% (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20388854/ )

Similarly, an animal study found that treating mice with sulforaphane helped kill off prostate cancer cells and reduced tumor volume by more than 50% (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20388854/) Studies also found that a higher intake of cruciferous vegetables (like broccoli) may be linked to a lower risk of colorectal cancer.

One analysis of 35 studies showed that eating more cruciferous vegetables was associated with a lower risk of colorectal and colon cancer (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23211939/

The post Discussion about Mind, Body, Spirit appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

Back pain is one of the most common reasons that people all around the world miss
work. It’s so common that it costs the US somewhere between $50 billion and $200
billion dollars a year. The back is a very complicated system of nerves, tendons,
muscles, bones, and joints. And as we get older, like everything else in the body, the
back tends to weaken and degrade, increasing the chances of complications and pain.
Luckily, most back pain is short-lived, but that doesn’t do you much good when you’re in
the middle of suffering through it. Which is why we’ve got a list of essential ways for
treating back pain naturally.

Different Kinds of Back Pain
Since the back is complex and susceptible to injury, there are many different kinds of
back pain. Finding out what exactly is causing yours may require a doctor. But, since
most back pain doesn’t stick around for long, you can try some of the natural remedies
in this article.

Many of the items on this list will help different kinds of back pain. If you do experience
chronic or increasing back pain, it’s best to see a professional. A pinched nerve is one
of the common causes of back pain. Click here for an article on how to get rid of a
pinched nerve in your back. For more general back pain, read on!

Eat Your Fruits and Veggies
A balanced diet is essential not only for treating back pain but for defending yourself
against it in the future. Not only do you get powerful immune-boosting vitamins, but you
also get anti-inflammatory nutrients and antioxidants that can help reduce pain, heal
your injury, and get you back to normal in no time.

A few of the best anti-inflammatory foods include:
● Sweet Potatoes
● Beets
● Carrots
● Berries
● Grapes
● Tuna and Salmon
● Broccoli
● Avocados
● Mushrooms

Take Anti-Inflammatory Supplements
Many people find it easier to take supplements daily for their important healing and
health powers than trying to get them all from the food they eat.

Take turmeric curcumin, for example. It’s one of the most potent anti-inflammatory
spices out there. But even if you cook with turmeric every meal, you’re not getting
enough to do you much good. Why?

Because, by itself, turmeric has poor bioavailability, which means that your body has a hard time
absorbing it. Turmeric supplements come with black pepper extract, which helps your body absorb and
experience the benefits of turmeric on back, joint, and many other types of pain.

A few other powerful anti-inflammatory supplements include:
● Alpha-Lipoic Acid
● Ginger
● Fish Oil
● Spirulina

These other vitamins can help you maintain a strong and healthy back:
● Vitamin B12
● Calcium
● Magnesium
● Potassium
● Vitamin B6

Avoid Too Much Bed Rest
This tip may seem counterintuitive, but it’s true. Too much bed rest can make your back
pain worse. More than one or two days of bed rest can work against you. So, find a non-
painful way to keep moving and stay active. Oftentimes people can recover from a
temporary back injury with little to no bed rest.

Maintain Good Posture
It may be hard for you to maintain good posture when you’re in the throes of back pain,
but that doesn’t mean that you should forget all about it. Poor posture is one of the
major causes of back pain.

If you can maintain a straight back while walking around without causing pain, it can
strengthen your back and alleviate the strain that comes with slouching. When sitting,
reclining with support up your whole back can also take the strain off your back. But
don’t sit for too long in one position!

One of the most effective natural ways to treat back pain is chiropractic care. Depending
on the issue, a chiropractor will develop a tailored plan to treat and prevent back pain all
at once.

A few tactics chiropractors use include:
● Stretching
● Spinal Alignment
● Hot and Cold Therapy
● Nutritional and Lifestyle Tips

Not all the tactics chiropractors use are natural and they may recommend that you see
a specialist, depending on what’s causing your back pain. For the most part, though,
chiropractors use natural techniques that work very well for back pain relief.

Stretch Daily
Many people find that daily stretching is very useful in treating and preventing back
pain. Even ten minutes of yoga can go a long way to activating and strengthening your
back muscles and your posterior chain.

A professional like a chiropractor or physical therapist can give you information on
specific stretches that can work to treat your back pain. Keep in mind that stretching
should never cause pain. If you can’t stretch without feeling pain in your back, you
should consult a physician.

Move Around
It can be tempting to stay in one position all day if you suffer from back pain. After all,
for a lot of injuries, the recommendation is that you avoid using the injured area until it
heals. For most back pain, however, moving around regularly can help you heal quickly.
Similar to avoiding too much bed rest, too much sedentary time can make your back
injury worse, not better.

Apply Alternating Hot and Cold Temperatures
Proper use of hot and cold packs can help relieve pain and assist in the healing
process. If your back pain is due to a strain or injury, you should use a cold pack
intermittently for the first 24 to 48 hours. Ice packs can help reduce inflammation and
lessen pain.

Hot packs are best for pain lasting longer than 48 hours. When heat is applied to the
area, it increases blood flow and relaxed strained muscles. The increased blood flow
can also bring immune cells to help heal the area. Don’t leave either hot or cold packs
on the skin for more than 10-15 minutes at a time.

Try Massage Therapy
Massages are well known for their stress-relieving and relaxing properties, but they can
also help back pain. One study showed that people with back pain experienced better
sleep and reduced pain, anxiety, and depression after only five weeks. The participants
had two 30-minute massage therapy sessions per week during the five-week period.
This goes to show that massages— even short sessions twice a week— can help both
back pain and mood.
