Trending Topics: Allergies & Weight Loss Drug

Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation –


I hope that you enjoyed your weekend and are keeping up with mowing the grass. It’s a great time of year, and I love that everything is green and growing. The tree leaves are not quite full yet, but they’re getting there. It’s just so nice to see everything growing after the winter, which always seems long.

As during every Spring, we’re starting to see patients have problems with allergies. Many of these allergy symptoms are problems leftover from the colds and flu that they had over the wintertime that were never quite completely gotten over.

At Natural Health, we help the immune system strengthen and help patients get over these long-standing colds and flu, just like getting over long COVID, and the body can then reduce the inflammation that comes from these infections. This helps to minimize reactions to dust, pollen, and mold that we call “allergies.”

I had terrible allergies when I was younger, and this is one of the reasons that I got into Chiropractic and nutritional support, which helped my body get rid of all the colds and pneumonia that I had and be able to detox from all the junk that’s in the air. It’s always going to be there, so our bodies must be able to handle it and get over it.



The article that I’m reviewing this week looks at the problems with the shots and drugs for weight loss that are causing many terrible side effects and resulting in lots of lawsuits against the companies that are selling these drugs.

It’s a shame that people feel they have no other choice than to take these drugs for weight loss when all they really have to do is get healthy — and I mean truly healthy, not just symptom-free while being on medications and eating junk food.

We have helped patients lose tons of weight over our 45 years of being in practice and helping patients become actually healthy. When the body is healthy, it can burn the calories that you take in and not turn them into excess weight.

People who are not truly healthy often have big problems with metabolism, lymphatic drainage, bowel function, and fatigue. Because of this, they don’t have good metabolic function and will retain calories without the ability to burn them and reduce the carbohydrates that are stored in fat tissue.

Add to this all the stress that we’re under for whatever reason, and hormones get out of balance, which makes it hard for patients to lose weight.

Using drugs to force the body to lose weight is, again, not helping the underlying cause of the problems, and you will almost always have side effects because of this lack of handling the reason for the problem. Secondly, the weight will not stay off because you have not handled the underlying cause.

Over the years, we’ve seen many different diets that people have tried, and the weight always comes back on as soon as they go off the fad diet they were on.

Our strategy at Natural Health is to get the body healthy and well and to provide the energy and nutrients it needs to burn calories, reduce fat storage in the body, and help the body repair itself to reduce the effects of aging.
