An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It really is. And every disease we get is nutritional in nature, either because we are deficient in some nutrient, which means we can’t absorb some other nutrient, or because we are eating or drinking something that the body doesn’t like, and so it needs to rob from its own mineral stores to counteract it, which over time results in an acidic body environment.
Eat more vegetables and fruits and stay away from dairy and sugar and processed foods and breads. Processed foods and breads turn right into what? Sugar in the bloodstream. Do you know what cancer loves to feed on, and what yeast and fungus and bacteria love to feed on? Sugar. Ditch the sugar!
Feed your thyroid every day. It needs iodine. Low thyroid is at the root of just about all cancers…and when your thyroid is weak you won’t produce enough progesterone to balance out your estrogen production. Fibrous breasts, endometriosis, skin cancer, breast cancer, uterine fibroids and cancer. Bad news.
Did you know that fluoride competes with iodine for absorption in the body? Ditch the fluoride toothpaste, and for heavens sake, stop drinking tap water! No wonder Synthroid is one of the most prescribed drugs in this country…
If your thyroid is weak, you won’t produce enough Calcitonin to assimilate calcium into your body and it’ll go other places instead, and build up in the form of arthritis, hardened arteries, kidney stones, etc.
Zinc is paramount for prostate health… and also for being able to metabolize essential fatty acids, and you need essential fatty acids to hold onto iron in your blood to move the oxygen around.
If you are under a lot of stress of any sort, you will likely have over taxed adrenal glands… Which need to be supported by vitamins B and C. Did you know if you don’t have enough essential fatty acids, you can’t metabolize B vitamins, either? Not to mention, your adrenal glands govern your whole immune system. That’s right.
Allergies? Food allergies? Gluten and wheat sensitivity? Pet allergies? You need essential fatty acids, friend… and you can’t metabolize and hold onto those with out what? Zinc.
And when your adrenal glands are over taxed, you won’t produce sufficient stomach acid to digest your food properly and absorb the nutrients you eat or take… So it’ll sit there and ferment, causing digestive issues such as heartburn, bloating, gas and promoting yeast overgrowth… A real nightmare. Doctors of course advise acid blockers but that only takes away the symptoms or pain… and the food is still fermenting, right? Do you see undigested food in your poop (yes, you should be looking)? For all this, what you really need is… MORE stomach acid.
Do you know yeast overgrowth is at the root of conditions such as Crohns, IBS, ulcerative colitis, and fibromyalgia? Yeast overgrowth is a nightmare… Look it up for yourself. Well, go on!
Doctors don’t talk nutrition… they talk pharmaceuticals, and they also talk surgeries. But you should know good nutrition is a slow walk in the right direction. Good nutrition won’t do you wrong.
If you havent heard of Muscle Response Testing, aka “applied kinesiology”… look it up.
Take care of yourselves, people. You’re the only you, you’ve got… and there are lots of people who love you. Plus, it’s really hard to do stuff when you’re sick. Why do I tell you all this? Because I love you. If there is any of this you feel you need more information on, I will be happy to help with what I know, or point you in the right direction to research it all for yourselves.
