Relax -Chamomile and lavender tea once a day or any other nerve relaxer, magnesium, sleepy time tea... -Sleep at least 8 to 9 hours a day at night. -Pray and read the word of God. Hydrate -Drink lots of water, tea, soup,add plenty of electrolites.. -Humidifiers -Eat plenty of vegetables, seeds, grains, EAT HEALTHY BALANCED MEALS avoid white flour products and sugar as much as possible. Quality Vitamins and Minerals -Quality Multivitamin or supplement -Vitamin C -Vitamin D3 -Zinc or Zicam Take zinc with meals and plenty of water. -B6 Anti oxidants -Glutathione -Resveratrol -Papaya Enzyme -Alpha lipoic acid -Quercetin Alkalize PH Bacteria and Virus as well as Cancer love an acidic Ph thus the reason to alkalize our ph. -Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother. -Baking soda 1 pinch in a glass of water or just gargle as needed. Do one or both if you start feeling symptoms of a cold or scratchy throat. Eating well and balanced with plenty of vegetables your Ph usually will stay alkaline. Homeopathic Medicine -Oscillococcinum Take this at first sign of symptoms, the instructions are in the box. Herbal (phytonutrients) -Sarsaparrilla This phytonutrient is an amazing immunomodulator, if sick take one or two a day, if is tea take one cup a day. -Black Elderberry gummies or syrup: Amazing immune support usually supplements contain vitamin C and Zinc. -Dandelion or Dandelion Root: this also helps balance the Ph as well as a good antioxidant immune booster. Herbal Anti inflammatory (phytonutrients) -Ginger capsules or teas -Turmeric capsules or teas -Chamomile Don't mix turmeric with ginger or turmeric with any blood thinners because these are blood thinners as well. No Advil. -I highly recommend throat spray from sprouts (Osha root, echinacea, propolis, thyme, aloe Vera, ginger, licorice root, Honey, spearmint) Allopathy non prescription expectorant. -Guaifenesin half pill, if you have thick phlegm or thick mucus in throat. -Tylenol.… if the fever is Very high, remember that the FEVER IS A DEFENSE MECHANISM OF YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM TO KILL VIRUSES AND BACTERIA, allowing the fever to get high is not always a bad thing, in children and adults make sure you take frequently the temperature and if it goes very high then use Tylenol. Use physical methods to try to lower the fever like wet towels. About Antibiotics this ones are prescribed by your doctor, and used only after the viral process is over. The inflammation and mucus in the lungs may acquire a SECONDARY to the viral infection, a BACTERIAL RESPIRATORY INFECTION, this is when your doctor may prescribe Zpac, and sometimes an steroid shot to relieve the inflammation.(Steroids shot is not recommended while the viral process is still going on, steroids disarms your immune system, they stop the immune response that in some cases ends up attacking your lung cells because of the Cytokine Storm, Steroid shot should be always accompanied by antibiotics to protect from bacterial infections) All the information in this post is intended to inform you of ways to support the immune system, I encourage you to research this info and see what works best for you.

All food is good.

2016-07-26T11:23:00.002-05:00

When we are young, some of us underestimate the importance of living a healthy life style. Believing that nothing can stop you from having fun and neglecting your health, because you will always recover and be forever young, sadly this idea can’t be further from the truth. Lack of sleep, alcohol abuse, smoke, drugs, excessive consumption of caffeinated drinks plus junk foods are the recipe of all illnesses, and don’t forget to add the inherited illnesses. It is not easy to change the course, but never too late. This is as easy as to start to eliminate from our diet, highly processed foods. The food industry wants to sell, and they want you obsessed about food, the good, the bad and the ugly. Food shows, food adds, food here, food there... When you have a social impact of that kind, the rebel nature of man starts to react, but not only react but overreact. Overreactions as an extreme diet not only for adults but for our children too, prohibition of certain foods, bulimia, anorexia, obsessions with the physical appearance. None of these paths will be conducive of good health. Lack of a good nutrition diminishes your IQ and thinking process, brain function is related to our digestion system. A healthy digestive track improves the brain function. When we have a deficient nutrition, our overall wellbeing is compromised. The solution is to make one small change at a time, every shopping trip, until you convince yourself of the benefits of eating right, balanced diet, without stressing about it, or immediate big changes. The key = Less processed foods. Make time to cook homemade meals. Portions matter. Don’t skip meals (metabolism slows down when you skip meals) Eat less carbs and more protein and vegetables. Eggs are great because they contain lots of protein, minerals and vitamins and keep you full for a long time. Because we most unlearn what adds on tv told us, what society says, we must unlearn feeling guilty or obsessed about foods & body. Food is a necessary blessing, and a pleasure that must be appreciated. I am happy to be alive, God made good foods for us to be alive and well. A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it." Matthew 15:11 Amazon picks

To prevent cancer and many other illnesses of inflammatory etiology, is to maintain your ph balanced, we do not want to have an acidic ph because this is the ph where cancer cells and bacteria thrive, our goal is to keep our body with a balanced alkaline ph. In theory we should be able to reach a alkaline ph if we were to ingest a diet of enough fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, but when this is not enough you can do this: Buy Organic Apple Vinegar (with the mother) this means organic, raw, not refined. Then add two tbsp. to an 8 oz. glass of water, drink it once a day. If you drink it early it will help by reducing your cravings, because it makes you feel full. Add this to your diet, and try to eat all the foods that help your body be healthy and strong.

The causes of these disease are a collection of conditions, especially the chronic inflammation of the color due to poor diet and stress or bacteria (chronic infection) or parasites, constipation caused for poor diet habits.

Also viruses, bacterias or parasites can take advantage of the acidic pH and weakened immune response so these also can be involved in the development of ulcers.

Osteoporosis.

2014-02-27T14:15:00.001-06:00

Do you suffer from Osteoporosis? Lack of sunlight may be the cause. But recent studies have shown that there is another factor in the process of bringing Calcium into your bones, it turns out that we need to ingest foods rich in ferments, like organic yougurt, fermented organic cheese, also organic fermented pickles and sour croute. This foods contain the bacteria that helps our body turn Vitamin K1 into Vitamin K2. So no matter how much Calcium you take is not good for your bones with our sunlight and the Vitamin D and K. So start adding to your diet rich organic fermented foods. Watch a video called The Calcium Paradox all the info is there and talks about how, taking Calcium supplements with out the other ingredients can be even fatal and harmful for your body. Osteoporosis can be related to lack of exposure to sunlight and low vitamin D levels and absence of Vitamin K2 which is only found in fermented produce and this is key vitamin to help bring calcium into your bones. Our body needs the right ingredients to keep homeostasis in our body, means the balance to maintain life working properly. Lacking of the proper form of vitamin D affects the amount of calcium in our blood, muscles and bones. You may ingest calcium and vitamin D, but there is a process inside of body that needs to take place for this vitamin D to go into our blood stream and take calcium into the bones and muscles. When you don’t have enough calcium in bones or muscles, these weaken experiencing fractures and also muscle pain. We need to understand the physiology of vitamin D so we can learn how important it is the exposure to sunlight. To make it simple, when we eat our foods that contain Vitamin D we are taking Ergocalciferol Vitamin D2, for this Vitamin to be useful for your body, the Vitamin D goes into the skin (vitamin Choloecalciferol D3 provitamin). Then, if you expose your skin to Ultraviolet Light from the sun, this one turns into Pre vitamin D3, which turns (isomerizes) into Vitamin D3 and enters (translocates) to the blood stream or circulation. Then our liver converts this vitamins D2 and D3 into a different form of Vitamin D in a storage form, to be used as needed. There is much more to this physiological process and you can find more info but I found here a link to a nice drawing and labels that may help you to understand. Click here to see a figure of this physiological process. As you can see there are many things that our body does by itself better known as the Autonomous System but rich in fermented products diet and solar exposure are needed to maintain healthy bones. Our organs and glands will work according to what they sense in our body, if we are not giving our bodies the right nutrients and environment, then our body will start hurting in many ways. So get some sun and eat healthy, prevention is important to be healthy.

Mountain Cedar Fever or Ashe's Juniper Pollen Allergy.

2014-01-01T13:57:00.000-06:00

December in San Antonio, TX is not as cold as in Illinois, but surely has it's down sides, I am talking about “Mountain Cedar Fever” (evergreen called Ashe’s Juniper), is not a cedar, is not a fever, this Juniper tree pollinates all winter and sends clouds of seeds (golden grains) across the plains with the breeze or winter winds) by itself is bad for people with allergies, but if you did not had an allergy to it you may develop it. Cedar Fever refers to a collection of conditions physically and environmentally that may end up sending you to the ER with pneumonia or other flu or cold complications. Starting the month of December all the pollen from the mountain Cedar trees in the hill country is blown away with the north winds and brought right into our city and homes. I love nature and I know we need to get used to it, but when you move from one place to another, it takes time for your body to adapt. The problem with this pollen is that you may develop an allergy and there are other factors that contribute to make of these winters sometimes fatal. In the winter conditions * Low temperatures, cold air. *Cold and Flu Virus, bacterial Infections like Strep, Pollen and smog in the air. (Social gatherings) *Plus extremely low moisture in the air. * Ashe’s Juniper Pollen Allergies. You can develop symptoms like sinus congestion or sinus infection, headaches. The dry air in the winter makes your wind pipes and entire upper respiratory tract be dry and when is dry, all of the allergens in the air get stuck inside our throat and sinuses, our body’s immune system way to wash it away is with the natural body fluids but the dryness doesn’t allow it, so your body is not able to do the cleaning. Solution: H2O Get a humidifier the best that you can get either small ones in every room or whole house humidifier. The best humidifiers are the cool mist humidifier; try to find one with UV light or anti bacterial properties, A filter less is easier to take care of. There is the Honeywell 300T or best buy and Target have a different series but also good ones. Also for kids bedrooms I love the little ones like frog, elephant... Target has those too and I like them because they don't require filter and you just need to clean it once a week. The Holmes 1 gallon cool mist is good too. Drink lots and lots of fluids, hot tea, ice tea, water, limeade, lemonade, orange juice, in the winter we don’t get as thirsty as in summer but we need lots of liquids to let our body work properly. Again our body’s immune system works but sometimes we just need to give it the right aid and is all our there in nature. And now my quest is to find out how to make our body less reactive to the pollen of these trees. I have read that eating the seeds of the male tree may work but I will let you know when I find out more and if you have ideas please leave a comment! If you have cold and fevers treat it just like you usually do, call your Dr. Robitusin, allergy medicine as Claritin, Zarabees cough syrup, zicam, equinnacea, vitamin C, and if you get a fever higher than 103 call your Dr. right away, go to the ER, If your children experience trouble breathing, especially children that have pre existent conditions like allergies or asthma.
