It’s an approach that can provide far superior harvests
compared to conventional chemical-based agriculture,
while simultaneously healing the Earth.

Most of us have been trying to eat more healthy, organic, non-GMO foods, so that our health will be at its best and our immune system will be strong. With these unpredictable times, we would like to be more in control of when and how we are able to obtain the best quality food we possibly can at the best price.

Fresh organically grown food provides more nutrients and more importantly, it does not contain the toxic pesticides and herbicides (that are used for growing and drying crops) that we simply cannot wash off, and that are extremely detrimental to our health.

I feel it’s more important today, to grow our own quality food, because the amount of GMO food, grown with seeds that have toxins built right into them is growing at an alarming rate. I learned last year that over 1000 patents had been taken out on building poisonous snake venom into vegetable and fruit seeds. With no long-term studies, it’s hard to predict the result of ingesting

food with toxic poison of this type built right into the seeds. (1)

I started growing my own food as a child with my family, and I’ve continued to do so all my life.

I really encourage everyone to do this, because it not only allows you to be in control of the quality of your food, but it makes it easier and less expensive to obtain healthy, fresh food that has ripened naturally on the vine or tree. Additionally, it also decreases the amount of pesticides you and your family consume, and using less pesticides helps not only our health, but also protects the environment in which we all live.

Food picked fresh in its vine-ripened or tree-ripened state also contains healthy solvestrols. Solvestrols have natural cancer and disease-fighting components in them that are not present in foods picked green before they are ripe.

It is not that hard to start growing your own food at home, whether it’s sprouts in a small container in the kitchen, or leafy greens in a pot on the balcony or porch, or vegetables in a larger garden out in your yard.

I suggest starting by deciding what you wish to grow. What do you like to eat? It is always a good time to start growing organic healthy food, even with just a single plant or two. Don’t worry if things aren’t exactly right.

It can be fun and you will learn along the way.

Organic gardening means you don’t use synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. There are many safe and less toxic ways to prevent bugs, slugs, and snails, or to handle weeds. I will list some resources at the end of this article.

Organically grown fruits, vegetables and mushrooms deliver much higher amounts of the essential vitamins, micronutrients, and probiotics than those grown in toxic herbicide-doused soils. You want to start with rich organic soil, compost, high-quality water, and a good amount of sunshine.

You might consider testing your soil for heavy metals or an imbalance, but that isn’t essential. (If you wish to do the testing, you can buy soil test kits through some gardening supply stores, which I will list below.)

You can begin with a small garden (and the closest thing to instant gratification), by starting a window box containing a basic organic soil mix. You can find window boxes at most garden centers or order on-line. Horse water troughs (https://horseyhooves.com/horse-water-troughs/) also make excellent and long-lasting raised gardens or you might want to try gardening “grow bags.”

I bought some of these, and they work fantastic for me out in the country. I planted mint in one of them. I love mint. I learned the hard way, that mint must grow in a contained pot or it will take over a whole garden.

I prefer small, reputable garden centers that are dedicated to carrying only approved organic soil amendments, as well as organic disease and pest management materials.

Place your window box, pots of soil, or garden in a sunny location. Next plant your seeds as directed on the seed package. I have found that herbs and salad greens are quick and easy to grow and full of flavor and vitality.

You can purchase seeds in bulk or in small packets. Simply make sure they are “Organic” and “Non-GMO.” I like to buy a couple of different varieties of my favorite vegetables or fruits.

I like to do this because frequently one will thrive more than the other, and it’s good to know which type can flourish in my soil and location. I also like to experiment with different flavors of the plants. This always makes it fun and you can make this a game with your children.

The quickest plants to reach harvestability belong to the cruciferous vegetable family or radish family. Radish varieties are vast. Be sure to find a good source for bulk, non-treated, non-GMO seeds. These are some of my favorite sprouts to grow for sprinkling on sandwiches, salads, etc.

Microgreens are a great choice of plants to grow, because they have 40% more nutrients in them than the full-grown plant, so they are an easy way to get an amazing amount of intense nutrition in the diet.

Oregano, malibar spinach, and mint are good plants to grow in a container, because if you plant any of them in a garden, they can be very hard to manage and they can take over.

My children and I loved to grow our favorite herbs in little pots in the kitchen window, as they were so easy to cut and use in our recipes. One of the first things my son did when he got his apartment at law school, was to purchase some small pots of his favorite herbs for his kitchen window.

Fresh herbs and plants in a recipe can really make the flavor of a recipe pop. Using fresh herbs, leafy greens, sprouts, vegetables, mushrooms and fruits is one of the best ways to enhance the flavor of a dish.

I believe in getting children involved. They love gardening. The statistics show that children who garden have higher science and math scores. I have also found that they are much more likely to try eating the foods they have grown personally, than ones bought at a store.

I also recommend growing a few plants that attract pollinators and butterflies, like marigolds, zinnias and crocuses. You can grow herbs like lavender, sage, parsley and dill. Butterflies love dill for butterfly caterpillars to eat as food. I have some of the most beautiful Monarch butterfly caterpillars in my garden when I plant dill amongst my flowers. I love to watch them, so I always plant extra.

It’s important to educate my gardening helpers.

I show them the caterpillars and butterfly cocoons to them, so they avoid killing them by thinking they are pests. You may want to put out a little sign, saying “Butterfly Garden, please protect the caterpillars and cocoons”.

The pollinators are struggling. They add such beauty to our environment, as well as helping to pollinate our food. I enjoy my garden so much more when I plant these flowers and butterfly-friendly foods in my garden. They make it more fun and interesting. I also feel like I am helping the environment and helping with their survival by doing this.

I made a short video on organic gardening.

Here is a list of my favorite gardening supply websites:

1. Organic Pest and Gardening Supply, Austin “Arbico Organics”

2. “Sustainable Seeds” has organic & non-GMO seeds

3. “My Patriot Supply” has organic seeds

4. “Gardener’s Supply” is another great resource for a variety of things for gardening.

If you don’t want to grow everything yourself, and you would like to order some freshly grown sprouts or microgreens, I buy mine from the Indoor Organic Gardens Of Poughkeepsie. They can even overnight them to you, so they are incredibly fresh. The broccoli powder doesn’t have much taste, so you can add this powder to all your foods before serving. Don’t destroy the live broccoli sprout enzymes by getting them too hot, so add the broccoli powder after you have prepared the food, but before serving.

You will get that raw, organic broccoli sprout powder nutrition.

Here is their website link: www.iogopk.com If you put “Nancy” in the discount code box, you will get a discount on your order.

Being able to grow your own food can be empowering and in these times, it can provide a multitude of benefits you may not even imagine. Growing your own organic food can be an extremely enriching experience, as well as good for your health.

In closing, it’s important to highlight that being out in nature, gardening, and connecting with the earth’s energy, which is called grounding, can naturally boost our mental well-being.

The University of California did a study on grounding, and published their research. It was called “The Effect of Grounding the Human Body on Mood”. The researchers found that pleasant, uplifted, and positive moods significantly improved among the grounded participants.

The ungrounded participants did not have the same results.
https://www.academia.edu/84848080/The_Effect_of_Grounding_the_Human_Body_on_MOOD1

It was concluded that simply one hour of contact with the Earth improved mood more than just relaxing ungrounded. This is because direct contact with the Earth allows us to absorb negative electrons, which help to neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress, promoting a sense of calm and well-being. https://www.groundology.co.uk/?a=whoz

So, let’s all go outside, get grounded, plant some delicious healthy food, restore our health, and enhance our lives. Spring is the perfect time to get started!

Love to you all, Nancy

The post Start Your Own Organic Garden! 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.

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.

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.

This is an easy, delicious, and refreshing soup to serve cool, on a warm summer day. I have frequently served this to guests when they arrive at my home!

Cucumbers are especially good because they contain a “hormone needed by the beta cells of the pancreas to produce insulin. The enzyme crepsin in cucumbers is targeted toward breaking down excessive protein in the kidneys.” (1) Cucumbers have an amazing amount of nutrients in them. They can be used extensively in a healthy and healing eating plan!

Ingredients

1 Avocado (peeled and the seed removed)

1 Cucumber ( I cut into chunks, but leave the skin on)

4 T. Dill weed ( fresh is best, but dried works also)

2 teaspoons Lime or Lemon juice

½ teaspoon Mineral-rich, pink Salt

¼ cup Pure, Mineral-rich Water

Directions

1. Blend in blender until smooth and creamy. (If it is too thick, add some more water.)

The post Cucumber Soup Recipe – Gluten-free & Plant-based 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!

Calcium is a mineral. It is necessary for maintaining bone strength. Calcium enables muscles to move and nerves to carry messages between the brain and other parts of the body. It is essential to our blood vessels’ ability to move blood throughout the body. Calcium plays a role in the release of hormones and enzymes that are vital to the body’s functions.

If we eat too many acidic foods, our bodies do all kinds of things to adjust. The body will pull calcium from the bones to regulate the pH of the body. Meat is very acidic and can upset the body’s pH. As reported by McGill University, “animal proteins can inhibit the absorption of calcium.”23 Unprocessed vegetarian foods are primarily very alkalizing and help maintain a good pH. For this reason, vegetarians may not need as much calcium as carnivores.

Magnesium helps with the absorption of calcium. I do not recommend supplementing calcium. In Dr. Thomas E. Levy’s book “Death by Calcium”, this board-certified cardiologist argues that the regular intake of pasteurized dairy and calcium supplementation promotes all known chronic degenerative diseases and significantly shortens life. He told me that Vitamin C, helps protect the cells from getting too much calcium, which is he believes is harmful to the cell.

I believe that consuming foods containing good sources of Vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium in combination, is the best way to get these nutrients. Broccoli, kale, collard greens, and mustard greens are good sources of Vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium.

If you desire stronger bones, I recommend using two of the new drug-free, non-transdermal technology. These non-transdermal patches worn together have been shown to increase energy and recovery after exercise, improve cardiovascular function, increase muscle tone, along with lean body mass, muscle strength and bone density.

If you would like to place an order for these patches, please use my referral number 1439757 and my link. I would be happy to help you order and wear them in the best way possible.

In closing, remember this, keeping your Vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium levels balanced is very important, and they all make a difference to your overall health.

The post Calcium And Your Health 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!

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.

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.

I started growing my own food as a child with my family, and I’ve continued it all my life. I really encourage everyone to do this, because it not only allows you to be in control of the quality of your food, but it makes it easier and less expensive to obtain healthy fresh food that has ripened naturally on the vine or tree. It also decreases the amount of pesticides you and your family consume, and using less pesticides helps protect the environment in which we all live. Food picked fresh in its vine-ripened state also has solvestrols in it. Solvestrols have natural cancer and disease-fighting components in them that are not present in foods picked green before they are ripe. It is not that hard to start growing your own food at home, whether it’s sprouts in a small container in the kitchen, or leafy greens in a pot on the balcony or porch, or vegetables in a larger garden out in your yard. I suggest starting by deciding what you wish to grow. What do you like to eat? It is a good time to start something, even with just a single plant or two. Don’t worry if things aren’t exactly right. It can be fun and you will learn along the way. Organic gardening means you don’t use synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. There are many safe and less toxic ways to prevent bugs, slugs, and snails, or to handle weeds. I will list some resources at the end of this article. Organically grown fruits, vegetables and mushrooms deliver much higher amounts of the essential vitamins, micronutrients, and probiotics than those grown in toxic herbicide-doused soils. You want to start with rich organic soil, compost, high quality water, and a good amount of sunshine. You might consider testing your soil for heavy metals or an imbalance, but that isn’t essential. You can buy soil test kits through some gardening supply stores, which I will list below. You can begin with the simplest garden (and the closest thing to instant gratification), by starting a window box containing a basic organic soil mix. You can find window boxes at most garden centers or order on-line. I prefer small, reputable garden centers that are dedicated to carrying only approved organic soil amendments, as well as organic disease and pest management materials. Place your window box, pots of soil, or garden in a sunny location. Next plant your seeds as directed on the seed package. I have found that herbs and salad greens are quick and easy to grow and full of flavor and vitality.

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 Spring Cleaning The Non-Toxic Way! appeared first on Organic Healthy Life - Nancy Addison - Nutrition.

According to research by psychologist Dr. Sheldon Cohen, hugs can actually protect our health and improve our immune system.

“We know that people experiencing ongoing conflicts with others are less able to fight off cold viruses. 

”We also know that people who report having social support are partly protected from the effects of stress on psychological states, such as depression and anxiety,” the study’s lead author, psychologist Dr. Sheldon Cohen, said in a statement. “We tested whether perceptions of social support are equally effective in protecting us from stress-induced susceptibility to infection and also whether receiving hugs might partially account for those feelings of support and themselves protect a person against infection.”

I remember a story I read about two twin baby girls. When they were born on Oct. 17, 1995, they were premature by 12 weeks and were put in the neonatal intensive care unit of the Medical Center in Central Massachusetts in Worcester.

As a standard practice of the hospital, the babies were placed into separate incubators in order to reduce the risk of infection. One baby, Kyrie, was much larger than her sister Brielle, who only weighed two pounds at her birth. The larger baby, Kyrie, slept well and was healthily gaining weight, but her smaller sister, Brielle, was having trouble breathing and had low levels of oxygen in her blood, as well as low weight gain and problems with her heart rate.

Everyone was deeply concerned, especially a particular nurse named Gayle Kasparian, who was trying everything that she could think of to help Brielle. Then, on Nov. 12th, Brielle had an emergency health situation. She started gasping for air and started turning a gray-blue color. Then she got hiccups, and her heart rate went way up. Everyone was so afraid Brielle would not survive.

In desperation, nurse Kasparian remembered a common procedure a fellow colleague had mentioned to her once that was common practice in most of Europe, but was not done here in this country.

It was the practice of placing “newborn baby multiple births” in beds together. They called it double bedding. Even though she could not ask permission from her manager, since she was away and was not able to reached, she asked the parents for their permission to put the girls together in one bed to see if it would help. They agreed. So, nurse Gayle broke the rules and placed the larger baby with her smaller baby sister, now in extreme danger of dying.

The moment they were placed together in the bed, Brielle immediately snuggled up to her sister and within minutes, Brielle’s readings for her blood and oxygen levels were better than they had been since her birth. Kyrie gently put her arm around Brielle. It was such a beautiful hug.

In the article I read, they called it a rescuing hug. It was a very powerful hug. Being together had quite literally saved Brielle’s life. Soon after that, the parents were able to take the girls home, because they both were thriving.

Nurse Gayle did not get in trouble. In fact, the practice of double bedding multiple births is now standard practice at the hospital. Sometimes, breaking the rules can lead to changes in old antiquated practices. It takes courage and a strong heart to do what you believe in.

So, as we lead our busy lives, remember that our connectedness and our ability to love are so precious, that we can literally save another’s life by just being there for them.

So, share those wonderful hugs with your loved ones.

Take the time to truly listen, be present and reach out with the most precious gift you can give.
That is the precious gift of you.

You may never know how much of an impact your hug and/or your smile might have on another life, but it is something you can give every day without spending a penny.

I am mentally sending hugs to you all!

Much love, and have a joyful and loving month of February.

Love, Nancy

Pear Bread is a delicious fruit-filled bread recipe. It is naturally sweet and full of flavor with fresh pears, cinnamon, vanilla, and nuts. This recipe makes a savory, special breakfast dish for holiday occasions or anytime.

I started making this recipe, because my sweet neighbor kept bringing me lots of pears off her pear trees. They are the harder pear variety that are used mainly in baking recipes.

I use gluten-free flour in the recipe. The tapioca flour helps the flour bind better. You can use gluten-containing flour with this recipe, but you won’t need the tapioca flour if you do use gluten-containing flour.

This bread is wonderful alone, or it also makes an excellent bread to crumble in my baked pear crumble recipe (recipe follows below).

Ingredients

3 large Eggs, room temperature

3/4 cup pure Coconut Oil

1-1/2 cups Raw Sugar (date or coconut is good)

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

3 cups Coconut or whole-grain Oat Flour

2 T. Tapioca Flour

2 teaspoons Baking Powder

2 teaspoons ground Ceylon Cinnamon

1 teaspoon Baking Soda

1-½  teaspoons Himalayan or Real Salt

4 cups of Baking Pears, peeled, cored and chopped

1 tablespoon Lemon or Lime Juice

1/2 cup chopped Walnuts or Pecans

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease and flour an 8×4 inch loaf pan. You can also line the bottom of the pan with some greased parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl whisk together eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla extract until well-blended.
3. In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
4. Add flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined.
5. Toss chopped pears with lemon juice.
6. Fold the chopped pears and nuts in by hand until just combined and pour into the pan.
7. Bake the bread for fifty to sixty minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
8. Let cool.

Note:
1. Baking pears are usually harder and less sweet than many of the softer pear varieties. Choose the hardest fresh pear variety for this recipe.

2. You can also use canned pears if that is all you have available.
3. Apples and Asian pears can be substituted in this recipe.

Baked Pear Crumble Recipe

Ingredients

4 or 5 large baking Pears (cored, seeded, and sliced in half)

1 stick Butter

1 T. Ceylon Cinnamon

1 T. Nutmeg Powder

1 Pear Bread Recipe baked and ready to use in this recipe.

Baking dishes – 13 x 9 or 14 x 10 will both work well.

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Place the large pears in the baking dish and sprinkle with the nutmeg and cinnamon.
3. Slice the butter in small pieces.
4. Place half of the small pieces of butter on the pears before baking.
5. Bake the pears about 20 minutes or until soft.
6. Remove from heat.
7. Crumble the cooked pear bread over the baked pears and dot with last half of the butter pieces.
8. Then warm the bread crumble with baked pears in the oven until warm enough to serve.
9. Serve for breakfast alone, or you can serve this dish topped with whipping cream or ice cream as a dessert.

My answer to them is that you are not alone.
Stress… who doesn’t have that in their life at some time or other?

Stress is commonly known as the Silent Killer.

No one is immune from the day-to-day stresses that occur in our lives. Stresses can be anything from someone cutting us off in traffic, to work-related stresses, to the loss of a close friend or relative.

We may not be able to prevent ourselves or our loved ones from being affected by daily stresses, but we can choose how we react to them, and how our body is able to handle them.

Taking yoga, doing deep breathing, and exercising are all wonderful ways that can help someone to handle stress more effectively.

My daughter sent me this TED video, “How to make stress your friend” by Kelly McGonigal, and it is fantastic. This talk addresses stress and how we think of stress and it’s effects on our life and health.
Click Here for the link. I highly recommend watching it. I found it very enlightening.

Being a health counselor and nutritionist, I understand that most people these days need some help once in a while with boosting our mood, reducing and handling stress more effectively, or overcoming depression. There are a number of foods and supplements that can help reduce the effects of stress on our health, help us to sleep better, and fight depression.

I recommend always buying organic, non-GMO foods when possible, because they will have a much higher nutrient content, and less chemical toxins for your body. Eating a more plant-based diet is recommended.

Avoiding processed or restaurant foods, as well as the use of antibiotics (that can be unknowingly contributing to anxiety or depression) is recommended.

A few supplements you can take are complex amino acids. Amino acids (including L-tryptophan, N-A-C (N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine), L-Theanine), are good because they are the “building blocks of proteins,” and without a wide array of them in our diets, we can’t even survive, let alone thrive.

One reason we are depleted in some of these complex amino acids is because the herbicide, called Round-Up Ready
(containing glyphosate), which is used on most food crops, blocks some of these complex amino acids, and therefore we are not able to obtain it from our food.

L-Tryptophan (also called tryptophan) is one of these important complex amino acids that may be depleted or missing from most of the populations of the world.

L- Tryptophan is a natural mood regulator. L-Tryptophan helps the body produce and balance certain hormones naturally. Supplementing with tryptophan-rich foods (Organic, Non-GMO: poultry, beef, sprouted beans, sprouted lentils, sprouted pumpkin and sunflower seeds, chia seeds, sprouted buckwheat, sprouted oats, and eggs) or taking supplements helps bring on natural calming effects, induces sleep, fights anxiety and can also help burn more body fat.

L-Tryptophan has also been found to stimulate the release of growth hormones, reduce food cravings for carbohydrates, and help kick a sugar addiction in some cases.

An important byproduct of L-Tryptophan is 5HTP (5-hyrdoxytryptophan), which works in the brain and central nervous system to boost feelings of well-being, connection and safety.

In addition to complex amino acids, most people are deficient in a nutrient/mineral that is a critical component of their overall health (including mental health). This nutrient/mineral is magnesium. It is water-soluble, and it needs to be replenished on a regular basis.

If the magnesium level is too low, you can experience muscle cramps, heart arrhythmias, and even sudden death.

“Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps to maintain normal nerve and muscle function, supports a healthy immune system, keeps the heartbeat steady, and helps bones remain strong. It also helps adjust blood glucose.

Magnesium is also known as “the mood mineral,” because it helps decrease feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression. Magnesium is important in the production of serotonin, a hormone linked to feelings of happiness.

It has been called the anti-stress mineral, because magnesium can help prevent feelings of nervousness or irritability. PsychologyToday.com recently reviewed various studies of the mineral, and labeled magnesium as the “original chill pill” because of evidence supporting its health and calming benefits.

According to some studies this article cites are ones that show a benefit of magnesium supplementation and relief of depression
(including post-partum depression), anxiety, insomnia, premenstrual dysphoria, cravings, chronic fatigue syndrome, mania, and schizophrenia, among others.

Magnesium chloride is the most effective type of magnesium, because of its high bioavailability, due to its efficient solubility in water. With our bodies being 66 to 72 % water, this is an effective and easy way to obtain and utilize this critically important mineral.

You can replenish the magnesium chloride in your body by either using a lotion, bath flakes, or by consuming a magnesium-rich diet. Examples of magnesium-rich foods are leafy greens, dark chocolate, bananas, whole grains, pumpkin seeds, and chia seeds.

In conclusion, if you are troubled with nervousness, depression, anxiety, muscle cramping, restless leg syndrome, insomnia, heart problems, or diabetes, try adding a little magnesium chloride and some complex amino acids to your daily health regimen. These simple supplements are easy, cost-effective, and very beneficial for relieving stress and creating better health and well-being.

However, many of our holiday foods often involve a number of rich, savory foods, creamy dips and fried foods. These foods taste good, but they don’t always make our body feel its best. Here are a few ingredient or food choice tips that can make our dishes healthier to share with our family and friends.

A potato dish can be made with sweet or purple potatoes in place of white potatoes. Use a high-quality organic butter, or use organic ghee or coconut oil as the healthy fat for mashed potatoes or when baking fries. Sweet potatoes are delicious and high in fiber and beta-carotene.

The reason I would recommend a colorful potato over a white potato is that they are loaded with antioxidants. Antioxidants are the color pigments in foods, so plant foods with vibrant colors are extremely high in antioxidants. Antioxidants counteract the assault of free radicals.

My children always asked me to make my purple mashed potatoes when they had friends visit for dinner because they thought it was fun. These days, my grandson frequently asks if we are going to have purple potatoes to eat when I come to visit. So this year, I encourage you to make some delicious and extraordinary foods for the holidays that are also healthy!

For a healthy stuffing, try making one with organic sprouted rice or even wild rice. Then, bake your stuffing in a separate dish instead of cooking it inside the turkey (where it can absorb a high amount of saturated fat from the meat). Also, use vegetable broth in place of chicken broth. Doing both of these things allow the vegetarian or vegan diners to be able to enjoy that dish as well.

When making cornbread stuffing, purchase the non-GMO, organic cornmeal (which is free of the Bt toxin). (The stuffing can be gluten-free if you use gluten-free cornmeal.) If you are feeling brave, try using blue cornmeal, which is about 30 percent higher in protein and has more zinc and iron than white or yellow corn.

When preparing creature (beef, lamb, pork, fowl, fish) foods, try using a little orange juice and coconut oil to add moisture, and try baking it instead of frying it. If you are baking, frying or sautéing anything, use organic, pure coconut oil in place of: lard, vegetable oil or a trans-fat like Crisco. It handles heat well and has fantastic health benefits.

You can also grill, broil, or sauté them in a little coconut oil. After you remove them from the heat, you can drizzle some pure, organic, extra virgin olive oil on them and possibly top it off with some lemon or lime juice or a lemon or lime juice vinaigrette. When dining, choose skinless, white meat pieces, and then add just a tiny bit of gravy.

Now for dessert, try making a pumpkin pie! You can make a whole sprouted grain crust yourself or you can find a whole grain ready-made crust at the store, and make my cashew crème recipe as the whipped cream for the topping. (Recipe is on page 185 in my How To Be A Healthy Vegetarian, 2nd edition.) I also love having a simple pitted date as a sweet treat or dessert. It’s just fruit, and it is a healthier choice.

Try using non-dairy milk (or if you are fortunate to be near a raw, organic farm with raw goat or cow milk, that is healthier also) in your recipes or for your coffee creamer. If you want it to be sweeter, blend the milk (like the organic, unsweetened, vanilla coconut or hemp milk) with a little extra added vanilla or maple extract in a blender and add some pitted dates. I soak the dates in water to make them softer, so they will crème up easier, and voilà … you have a healthier version of a sweet, holiday creamer for your coffee or desserts!

When making or serving snacks, try an easy dip option such as a healthy high-protein hummus or nutritious guacamole. Cutting some cucumber, red bell pepper or celery to use as the dipping chips is also a great choice!

I frequently cut up and serve fresh green beans with a tiny bit of mineral-rich salt sprinkled on them and serve them as finger food appetizers. I like to eat them alone with the mineral-rich salt, but green beans also go well served with hummus, bean dip, or onion dip. Green beans have some amazing health benefits, and this is one of my favorite ways to serve them.

Green beans are high in orthosilicic acid, which is a natural substance found in seafood, certain mineral waters, vegetables, whole grains, and certain beverages (including beer). Orthosilicic acid is sometimes referred to as soluble silica. Orthosilicic acid is a dietary form of silicon. Silicon is a mineral involved in the formation of collagen and bone. Silicon can help detoxify the body (from aluminum) and also help build strong bones.

If you want to serve crackers or chips, try using a whole grain, sprouted, organic version or an organic sweet potato chip or cracker. (Late July is a good brand for chips and Mary’s Gone Cracker’s is my favorite cracker these days. Mary’s Gone Crackers also has delicious gluten-free crackers.)

For additional snacks that are easy for travel or on the go, try combinations of organic, sprouted nuts, sprouted seeds, olives, pitted dates, raisins, dry fruits, kale chips and coconut chips.

Here are some easy substitutions I use frequently:

1. Unsweetened yogurt or cottage cheese in place of sour cream

2. Hummus or mashed avocado instead of mayonnaise for sandwiches

3. Unsweetened vanilla coconut or hemp milk in place of dairy

With these ingredient substitutions, you can still enjoy all of the delicious flavors you love, and at the same time, you can increase your health benefits.

Eating this way, you can feel and look your very best as holiday activities continue into January. Instead of regretting what you ate, you will glow with radiant health as you welcome the
New Year of 2022!

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 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!

See a Chiropractor
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.
