This newsletter highlights “Men’s Health Week” – read the article below for 4 foods to include in every man’s diet plan. Today the Environmental Working Group released their 2011 – Shopper’s Guide to Pesticide in Produce – Apples, Celery and Strawberries top the Dirty Dozen list! Be sure to keep this guide handy when you are out shopping for produce. I have also introduced B12/B Complex Injections in my practice.
As we age there are distinct changes in the composition of our intestinal microflora (bacteria that is normally present in our intestines). Overgrowth of organisms that are normally present in the GastroIntestinal (GI) tract can be a problem especially when combined with changes in diet and digestive physiology. As GI function declines, there is a decline in cellular immunity, because an important part of your immune function is lymph tissue that resides in the gut (gut associated lymphoid tissue – GALT).
The weather here in the East Bay Area keeps changing and people are susceptible to falling sick when the temperatures fluctuate as they have been. Here is a recipe for a Garlic Oxymel – this is a great immune booster to take at the first signs of a cold or flu. Needed: At least 1 bulb of garlic, Local honey*, Apple Cider Vinegar, Water.
On this last day of May 2011 – I thought we would pay tribute to May being Healthy Vision Month. As we age, our eyes undergo normal aging changes which cause a decrease in sharpness of vision and focusing power. When you start to notice that it is harder for you to read fine print – it is important that you schedule an appointment with an optometrist so that you can have your eyes properly examined. As we age the lens of the eye becomes less flexible and it becomes yellow and we have difficulty discerning colors.
May is Arthritis Awareness Month, please read on for tips on how to treat arthritis symptoms naturally. Arthritis is a disease that affects so many people, almost all of us know someone with arthritis. Naturopathic Medicine can offer arthritis patients relief from their pain without the side effects of many OTC pain relievers. Allergy season is in full swing here in the Bay Area – my recent blog post “Natural Treatments For Seasonal Allergies” – highlights home therapies and supplements you can use to help control your allergy symptoms.
