Turn off that TV and stop reading the newspaper. Spend the time doing something you love. Laugh and enjoy life. These activities support and nourish the immune system. With that said, let's attend to the swine flu thing...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Sheila was having a couple different challenges with her lips. Because they were not responding, she kept trying new things. We found several things she was using occasionally and a couple of things she was using more consistently that she was allergic to. This is a common thing that people do for both themselves and their pets (trying lots of products when something isn't working then not knowing which products are causing the problem.) Unfortunately sometimes this only makes the problem worse and difficult to decipher-unless you use muscle testing which is what we did.]]></description>

<title>The Difference Between Hydrogenated vs. Partially Hydrogenated Fats</title>

<pubDate>Thu, 18 Jan 2007 08:25:26 -0600</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Hydrogenated and Partially hydrogenated are not the same. When you have too many hydrogenated fats in your diet, symptoms of pain and stiffness are accentuated. Olive oil is an example of unsaturated fat so it is in liquid form. The thinner the oil and less hydrogenated, the better the cell-to-cell communication and the transport of nutrients both in and out of the cell membrane. Natural saturated fats are like beef fat, milk fat, chicken fat and fish fat.]]></description>

Dehydration can lead to bladder stones and urinary track blockages... Exposure to salt-based ice melting products can cause dogs severe dermatitis, inflammation of the paws and serious gastrointestinal problems including vomiting and internal burns of the mouth and digestive tract...

<pubDate>Thu, 18 Jan 2007 08:02:12 -0600</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[FructoOligoSaccharides (usually abbreviated FOS) and inulin, are terms referring to naturally-occurring, mildly sweet, indigestible carbohydrates. FOS does not affect blood sugar levels and so is suitable for diabetics and hypoglycemics. FOS has also been shown to reduce both cholesterol and triglyceride levels and may provide improved absorption of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and phosphate. FOS is commonly extracted from chicory roots and Jerusalem artichokes...]]></description>

Ginseng benefits are cumulative. Taking the herb for several months to a year is far more effective than short-term doses.

<description><![CDATA[You may think that it's kind of weird for a female naturopath to be discussing prostate issues, but I had a partner die of colon cancer and the cancer spread to his prostate. I miss him. He knew something was wrong, but when he went to his doctor, they couldn't find anything. He happened to be a veterinarian who worked in a teaching hospital, so he went to the horse barn, pulled out the ultrasound machine and did an ultrasound on the place on his body that hurt. He saw what he thought was a lump, so he took a videotape of the procedure, took it to his doctor who looked at the tape...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Question: I've recently heard that we create certain health problems with what we say and think, is this really true? Can you give me some examples? Answer: It is absolutely true. Where the concentration goes, the energy flows. If you think more negative thoughts about what is happening to you and your body than positive ones, the negative ones win! For example, I had a client who once used the metaphor, "Let's go eat our Saturday triple-bypass breakfast." That is exactly what he manifested within a year.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Stevia is a great sugar substitute known to help regulate blood sugar, helps to lower high blood pressure, aids in weight loss by decreasing the desire for sugary foods. Some people even report that it reduces their desire for tobacco and alcoholic beverages. Stevia is also used in facemasks to smooth out wrinkles and heal skin blemishes and acne.

<description><![CDATA[We don't really know why direct exposure to pollens causes hay fevers whereas small doses of honey (up to two teaspoons per day) does the opposite. Some people think that the tiny doses of pollens in the honey act as a homeopathic. A homeopathic dose of something works in the body by allowing it to recognize a particular foreign body within the body (like a pollen) and get rid of it by attacking it and eliminating the harmful toxin through the kidneys, liver, bowel and skin.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I've been determining which fats work best for epilepsy cases with muscle testing for years. The addition of fat usually DOES work for most seizure cases. Sadly, for some cases it doesn't work, but it wouldn't hurt you to try. Two other helpful things to add to the program are Carob powder (to bind heavy metals which can often be responsible for seizure activity) and Burdock Root (to cleanse the liver.) Doses vary from individual to individual. Min Chex by Standard Process labs helps control the electrical activity in the brain and works quite well.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Celery is rich in sodium. "So?" you say, "I eat table salt. Doesn't that count?" Actually, no! Table salt is composed of insoluble inorganic elements which lead to the development of varicose veins, hardening of the arteries and other aliments. Sea Salt is a better product, but the sale and types of sea salt can be misleading. Celery juice helps to regulate body temperatures, helps with bronchial and lung disease and elimination of carbon dioxide from the system. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This month I had a run of Hepatitis C clients. They each had contracted the disease differently, but none-the-less, their lives have been permanently shifted from this terrible disease which is seemingly not curable. The common thread that assisted these clients was that each person had to make some lifestyle changes (a permanent lifestyle choice that was healthier than they were living.) Stressing the optimal amounts of raw fruits/vegetables is always a staple in my programs-especially the dark green ones in hepatitis cases, but we also centered on several other treatment modalities including...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Lithium is a trace mineral found in the earth's crust (and I bet you thought it came in a little pill the doctor gives people!) The medical field refines this crust to produce lithium arginate. It is most often known for its use in manic-depressant syndromes, but did you know that it is also used for treating ADD, epilepsy, alcoholism, drug withdrawal, kidney stones and migraine headaches? Some research shows that it may also be effective in treating malignant lymphatic growths, arteriosclerosis and chronic hepatitis.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[After many years of exploration, I have learned that there is something good to learn from everybody. Don't "throw the baby out with the bath water" if you don't vibrate positively with a certain healer. Glean what works for you and move on. Don't be afraid to explore new healing modalities. Shifting and returning to practitioners you have not seen for several years also helps. As you grow, so does your lens of perspective and understanding. What one practitioner says to you today may mean something totally different to you years from now. What you don't understand, put on the "Cosmic Bookshelf."]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[At the cancer clinics in Mexico they use showers in the healing process. Hot and cold alternating showers are done after you drink a glass of fresh vegetable juice and before you eat anything solid. You stand in the shower and turn the water as hot as you can stand it for 15 seconds then you turn it as cold as you can take it for 15 seconds and repeat this process for six cycles. After the shower you put on a thick bathrobe and walk barefoot around the lawn until you dry off. What does this accomplish?]]></description>

If you don't have the proper fats to nourish the nerve cells and myelin of the brain you will have some problems down the road (like Alzheimer's disease). There are two different kinds of fats-bad fats, and good fats. Examples of bad fats include meat fats, processed fats, trans-fats, hydrogenated fats and fats processed under high heat.
