Health

Think about your body as a glass and the toxins you take in as the water.  How many toxins can your body handle?   As the toxins are accumulated in the body, the levels rise.  When your glass overflows, a disease process begins.  It is really important to keep your level of toxins down.  Toxins are pesticides, herbicides, pollution, body care products, poor quality of food and drinks, the mercury from the air, the lead from cars, and on and on it goes.  We want to clean the inside of our body just like we clean the outside.  A great way to cleanse is to get rid of the organisms in your body which is the work I do.  What can you do at home to help?  You can eat organic food and drink pure, filtered water.  Let’s do it as good health is priceless!!

Honey!

I want bees to stay away from me. However, their honey is delicious!

When you eat the raw honey, it may help you with your allergic symptoms such as sneezing, itchy nose and eyes as well as the stuffiness people experience. One caveat is your best results will be from honey in the area where you live. Why? Bees are known as the pollinators. As they bring and mix the pollen in their honey, it helps decrease symptoms in people’s environmental allergies meaning the weeds, grasses, flowers, etc.

You can look it up and you wil find that studies are lacking and this has grown by word of mouth. That is true. Who would be interested in paying the money for a study on whether honey decrease your environmental allergies? Certainly not the people with the money, like the drug companies. Since there’s little downside to eating honey, it might be worth a try. Use raw honey and eat one teaspoon a day. And yes, you can put it in your hot tea.

A person who lives in the vicinity of Evans and Downing here in Denver are selling bottles of raw honey made by their bees. If you would like to buy some, you can contact them at nrgd@frii.com

If you prefer, you can get it from me. You can let me know if it does, indeed, help your allergies. Each bottle is $12.

COVID 15

People joke about COVID 15, meaning they have gained 15 pounds while staying at home during COVID. Oh my, how to get those pounds to go away. If there is one way to lose weight, it is to limit the amount of time you allow yourself to eat during the day. Eat only in a 6-8 hour window. It is talked about a great deal these days. Some days I can do it and some days I can’t. The more days we do it, the better.

Another option, which is similar, is to eat nothing after 6 o’clock. Oh but I like to munch while watching television or a movie. Yes, I know. But honestly, this isn’t just for your weight, but your health. Eating and then going to bed just doesn’t work well. After eating, you should have at least 3 hours before you go to bed. You digestive system should not be working when we are sleeping.

When I practiced in Houston, I had a patient who was a bicyclist. He rode his bike at least 50 miles a day. He won a race from Houston to Austin and back while I was treating him. I asked him how he got started bicycling and he said he was overweight and decided to get in shape. He quit eating after 3 pm. And he lost the weight.

If you try any of these methods and are successful, please let me know. Good luck!
