Omega 3

Two Simple Ways to Improve Your Health*
 
Two of the best and yet simple ways to improve your overall health with supplements include*:
  • Increasing your intake of antioxidants ...
  • Increasing your intake of omega-3 oils ...
 
Antioxidants are your body's way to neutralize free radicals,those harmful metabolic byproducts that damage cells and tissues throughout your body.
Scientific evidence has repeatedly demonstrated that antioxidants are a cornerstone in the promotion of heart health, immune system support, and memory support.

Asthma

Asthmatic children with low blood vitamin D levels may have a greater risk of suffering severe asthma attacks.
A study followed more than 1,000 children with asthma for four years, and found those with vitamin-D insufficiency at the outset were more likely to have an asthma attack that required a trip to the hospital.
 
Vitamin D never ceases to amaze, and research into its impact on non-bone related diseases continues to yield positive results.
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to a variety of health conditions, from depression to autoimmune disorders, to colds and flu, to cancer, and now asthma, and even cognitive function.

Probiotic

Bacteria present naturally in your body and sometimes found in food could keep cold and flu viruses at bay.
According to a study, young children who drank a mixture of such bacteria, known as probiotics, had fewer colds, needed fewer antibiotics, and missed fewer days of school.
Researchers have already shown that probiotics can benefit those who are ill, and the bacteria are thought to boost the immune system's response to invaders.
 
For most of you reading this, cold and flu season is right around the corner, and with it will come the yearly push urging you to get a

Liver and Detox

 
Although the body is designed to eliminate toxins, it cannot always handle the overload present in today’s environment. Toxin overload can lead to a variety of health problems and thus, providing nutritional support for the body’s detoxification processes is a crucial aspect of health. With the help of Acupuncture and Homeopathy medecine, a good diet and some supplements, it is possible to achieve health. Remember that a detox should be done with good products, you dont want to keep the toxins that you are trying to flush inside of your body, trap there. Ask us what we recommend.

Constipation

Constipation is a clinical diagnosis. A normal person on a good diet should open their bowels daily (on average) and effortlessly (no straining) to produce a large stool (oh dear, I've never weighed one!) - about 10-12 inches long, thick as a cucumber, soft, brown and fairly inoffensive. Help is at hand with the Bristol Stool Chart so you can now grade 'em!
Food should pass through the gut in about 24-48 hours. You can easily measure your gut transit time by eating some beetroot (as the purple colouring goes straight through in many people) or sweetcorn which is poorly digested.

ECZEMA

Eczema - how to treat
 
Eczema simply means inflammation of the skin. Inflammation may have many causes and since the skin is the interface between the outside world and the inside body, there are many possible causes of this inflammation.The causes which I see in order of importance are as follows: Causes and things to try
 
  • Dry Skin:Avoid soap and water which remove oils from the skin.

Digestion

How to Improve Your Digestion Systems
 
Digestion is the process by which the body breaks down the food we eat into usable components. Our bodies use food similarly as a car engine uses gas and this gives us the energy needed to live. When we put food into our mouths digestion has already started because digestion means breaking food down into smaller molecules!

Your body depends on the breakdown of foods to get the nutrients it needs for healthy cells. If food sits too long in the stomach it can become toxic, recalculate throughout the body and cause illness.
