today, post-thanksgiving stupor (though I hope yours was WONDERFUL!) I decided to post some things I've learned this past year about health, wellness, and nutrition during this mess until you and me are in remission!
- use food as medicine. research. i will help a long the way.
- understand the stress connection!
- heal your poor gut that's under pressure from our "american" diet. i quote "american" because in the last 30 years they've added just plain chemical-ridden slop into our foods.
- support your liver--please research this, too!
- Gluten is *believed* to cause auto immune disease.
- to support your immune system, you need vitamin D, vitamin A, selenium, zinc and healthy fats. you have nothing to lost except hunger, weight and stress. trust me.
- turmeric is a miracle spice and one of the best anti-inflammatory ANYTHING you can use!! go for it!
- prayer works
- meditation works
- HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT: examine your own life and look for unusual challenges that presented themselved and that seemed to go against the grain, more or less forcing you to make some changes you might not otherwise have made. can you imagine your life without these changes?
hope to hear from you soon!
stay toasty!

Christine what can I eat for high blood pressure? Was diagnosed a few years ago amd on medication. Would love to not be..what do u think?
ReplyDeleteHi Suzie! Hope you are doing well! I know that my husband had super high blood pressure before and AFTER we got married (gee, wonder why lol) and what we started to do that helped him out a lot was cut down on the meat, sugar, processed foods and started eating more fresh fruits and vegetables. It helped him out a lot and now he can tell when he spikes. He never listened to the doctors when they prescribed him meds. My ultimate suggestion would be to search you tube for Dr. Robert Morse, N.D. The man is an angel sent straight from heaven and knows so much <3 Please tell me how it goes and feel free to e-mail me whenever you want. I'm not a diagnostician but i can research the heck out of things for you! (also, naturopathic doctors and acupuncture i'm sure would help, like meditation and some yoga stretches. try everything-- nothing hurts or interferes with each other as medicine would!)
