Homeopathy and Chronic Disease

Do you live with aches and pains because there is no other option? Homeopathy offers a holistic and complementary treatment to both chronic and acute diseases. It individualizes patient care by focusing on how symptoms of disease manifest in you, and not on the disease itself. Using homeopathy, chronic disease is manageable in a gentle, permanent, and rapid manner. Homeopathy is an individualized branch of natural medicine that stimulates the body’s innate ability to heal. Each person manifests disease in their own unique way, so Homeopathy uses thorough case-taking to find the most individualized remedy for each patients symptoms.

Get Your Greens

Spring is just around the corner, and the timing is perfect to start adding more colours into your diet. Leafy green vegetables contain many important macro and micronutrients. In 1 cup of broccoli or kale, there is actually 3 grams of protein! Try adding vegetables such as spinach, kale, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage to your salad. These vegetables will not only add flavour and a richer colour to your meal, but also drastically increase the amount of vitamins A, C, and K, which help with immune function and vision, decrease cholesterol, and assist in synthesis of protein and the binding of calcium for bone health.

Hair Loss and Prostate Cancer

Benign prostate enlargement and scalp hair loss are quite common among middle-aged males. The problems are known to come from the same origin, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Scientists in Australia found that men with bald spots at the top of their heads were 1.5 times more likely to have prostate cancer than those without bald spots. The association was particularly strong for men who were diagnosed with high-grade prostate cancer at 60–69 years of age. In contrast, there was no link between a receding front hairline and cancer.

Resolve Your Diabetic Condition

It has been proven that type 2 and pre-diabetes is a metabolic issue caused by lifestyle. It has also been proven that a dietary correction will halt, reverse, and even eliminate this chronic health issue. This correction is based on ancestral science. What food groups did your ancestors consume during evolution? Your genes expect a similar diet. Having blood sugar test strips allows you to measure how a dietary correction is working. Prefer to ‘manage’ diabetes while your health continues to decline OR are you willing to make a dietary correction and allow your body to heal?

Working to Live or Living to Work?

Many of us are addicted to the feeling of productivity, efficiency, and accomplishment. Creating lists and stroking them off rarely stopping, constantly doing, over-compensating, chasing the need to be needed, and by doing so, over-riding our energy and wellbeing. Striving to feel accomplished and good enough! The funny thing is…there will always be more work to be had, more needs to be filled, and getting ahead doesn’t really exist. Curious…what would happen if we begin working to live? No longer superseding our needs and desires, setting firm boundaries around our work schedules and hours, not letting our cell phones and texts interrupt or run us in the present moment, unplugging each day and listening to the rhythm of our bodies and soul’s desire… slowing down, welcoming in a new pace and place to honour laughter and the joy of being.

Smoking & Your Life Insurance Policy

If you smoke and are looking to buy life insurance in Canada, you can expect to pay a much higher premium than a non-smoker does. On term policies, the premiums can be more than double, and on permanent plans, the difference in rates is less pronounced. The insurance definition of a smoker is a male or female who uses nicotine, including cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco, a nicotine patch, or nicotine gum. Remember that to qualify for preferred rates, the insurance company can look back up to 12 months. Rates can be up to double for smokers on term plans, but only about 25% higher on permanent plans.

The Power of Touch

Did you know that massage not only helps us relax, but it also gives our immune system a boost? Any type of touch can reduce the heart rate, lower chances for depression, and lower blood pressure. Receiving a 45-minute massage has been found to increase the number of white blood cells that help defend the body from disease. Do you suffer from sleep problems? When a body receives massage, it instantly gets relaxed and the stress level in the body is reduced. Furthermore, 60 minutes of massage have the same effect on your body as 7 to 8 hours of good sleep. The antidote to a stressful day or health ailments could lie right at our fingertips.
