Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation –
I hope that you enjoyed your weekend, despite the fog and cooler temps. Unfortunately, we’re headed into winter which has its own set of stressors. The cold weather, the car not starting, moving around in the snow, etc. At Natural Health, we work toward preventing illness and keeping the body healthy, to enjoy life and all the holidays that come with this time of year. Our whole food nutrition works to give the body the nutritional building blocks it needs to work at its prime, avoiding all the severe flu and cold symptoms that come with the stress of the winter, and help make up for the sugar load put on our bodies from the treats eaten at Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. The bugs are around, and visiting friends and relatives spread them but the body has the ability to handle them if it has good nutritional support. Just suppressing symptoms with medications, like Tylenol, sets the body up for future chronic disease.
Which leads me into the article that I’m sending along this week, how over-the-counter pain medications can cause chronic disease, especially if taken for long periods of time. Parents have been misled by mainstream medicine that just taking Tylenol gets rid of the problem. Nothing could be farther from the truth. For one thing, the body has to deal with the drug in the system and get it out. This is very hard on the liver and kidneys, like basically all drugs are. Next, you haven’t fixed anything. Symptoms are like the red lights on the dashboard of the car, telling you something is wrong. Using a drug to cover it up is like putting black tape over the light and hoping all is well but some breakdown will eventually happen. On top of that, the fever and other symptoms kids have are a way for the body to develop immunity to the bugs out there. If this doesn’t happen as the child develops, like the pains and fevers of teething, the body will have problems like asthma, allergies, and others. Mainstream medicine will then prescribe more drugs for that and still not address the underlying cause. Then as an adult, more problems erupt because the body didn’t get what it needed to be actually healthy. ADD/ADHD, Autism, Childhood Cancers, etc. are all on the rise and have to come from somewhere.
At Natural Health, we work to remove the detriments to health in a patient’s environment and increase the nutritional support that the patient needs to be actually healthy. Unfortunately, mainstream medicine's definition of healthy is lack of symptoms but that is not health, it is disease management. I’m hoping that everyone who reads this will be actually healthy over the holidays, especially Thanksgiving as that one is here, so pass this on to your friends and relatives. At Natural Health, we are here to help you on your health journey, at whatever stage you’re at.
