Old Man Winter is certainly making a statement this year!  The picture above is the view out my front door this morning—we are buried and not a plow is in sight!  And in addition to snow in the forecast for the next 48 hours, it’s downright frigid out there. Right now it’s 2° and our high is only supposed to be 4°!

If you suspect Candida has been secretly affecting your health, or want to help keep it under control, now is the time to face that fungal monster and minimize its harmful effects on you!

I think it’s safe to say that most people are hoping their number doesn’t come up in the cancer lottery.  So they dutifully get their pap smears and PSA tests, mammograms and colonoscopies, slather themselves in sunscreen, watch for changes in moles, and keep their fingers crossed.

 

The holidays are upon us and while it’s “the most wonderful time of the year,” it’s also a time where a lot of people get sick with a cold or the flu!  But that doesn’t have to include you.  Because there are 8 safe, effective, natural ways to help prevent sickness during the holidays and all year round!

There is an interesting phenomenon in mainstream medicine that I call “running on the white coat treadmill.”  It occurs when you go to the doctor for a problem, maybe have some tests, receive your diagnosis and are given a prescription for a medication.  You take the drug but you don’t feel better or you start suffering side effects, so you go back to the doctor and get a second prescription.

It’s that time of year.  You may suddenly find yourself hit by waves of it “coming out both ends” (vomiting and diarrhea), plus nausea, fatigue, chills, headache and low-grade fever, and feel this way for about 24-72 hours.  Say hello to the stomach flu!  The reason for that is your immune system takes a hard hit during this time of year from stress, working long hours, traveling and eating rich holiday foods that are heavy in refined carbs and sugars…so it is not as effective at protecting you as it should be.  But luckily there are ways you can help bounce back from the stomach flu and start feeling much better, FAST!
