Hidden Sugars & Inflammatory Grains
Conventional advice has focused on low-fat diets for weight loss and heart disease prevention, but again and again, researchers are confirming that refined carbohydrates from sugars and grains is the primary culprit behind skyrocketing obesity rates, along with related diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Historical data also clearly shows that when indigenous cultures abandon their traditional diets for a Western style diet high in sugar and flour, they inevitably begin to suffer these health problems, even [...]
Who Can Benefit from Colon Hydrotherapy?
It should be noted that most people need a series of colon irrigations . . . not just one. There may be considerable gas expelled during the first few treatments. It usually takes a few treatments before one starts dislodging old encrusted feculent matter. One should remember that it usually takes years for the colon to become clogged up with its own waste products. Therefore, one should not be impatient when pursuing a therapeutic course of colon irrigations. Constipation is [...]
Constipation – What You Need to Know
What, exactly is constipation? Every single day here at my office I hear what people believe constipation is. Some people think having a bowel movement every three days is normal, and others think a movement every single morning is proof they have healthy bowels. The word constipation means “to press or crowd together, to pack, to cram”. This would mean that packed accumulation of feces in the bowel makes evacuation difficult. With the large intestine or colon being approximately 5 [...]
Fungus: The Invisible Illness
Candida albicans is a yeast-like fungus and exists within most people in limited amounts in the digestive tract from the mouth to the rectum. It loves dark, moist places as all fungus does. In healthy people, candida albicans exists in small colonies and is kept balanced by the beneficial bacteria which co-exist with it. Health problems arise when, because of a variety of causes, the body’s defense capability becomes deficient or weakens. When this happens, the controls that usually keep [...]
CoQ10 & Fat Burning
CoQ10 is a co-enzyme known as “ubiquinol” because it’s ‘ubiquitous’ in the human body — CoQ10 is used by every cell in your body. CoQ10 has research studies that number in the thousands, and in addition CoQ10 may help reduce the risk of fatty liver in people with obesity. Other benefits include: Helping you produce more energy for your cells Boosting your heart health Acting as an antioxidant to protect you from free radicals Helping you reduce the signs [...]
MCT Oil ~ You want it in your life!
What is MCT oil? MCT simply stands for medium chain triglycerides, as opposed to long chain triglycerides (LCT), which are found in most foods. MCT is comprised of primarily caprylic and capric fatty acids, and is a light-yellow, odorless, translucent liquid at room temperature. MCT oil occurs naturally in coconut oil and other foods. Compared to longer-chain fats, MCTs are absorbed more easily since there’s less work for the body to do breaking apart carbon bonds. MCTs are smaller, so [...]
The Healing Crisis – what is it?
The process of natural healing sometimes includes a healing crisis, also known as the detox reaction, the cleansing reaction or the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. During a healing crisis, you can feel even worse than before you started your detox program. The good news is that this reaction is likely a sign that you’re getting better. Dr. Edward Group, DC NP says: “Environmental toxins accumulate in tissue throughout the body, especially fat tissue. Additionally, the human body has bacterial colonies. When you cleanse [...]
