YOUR STOMACH IS NOT SUPPOSED TO FEEL LIKE THIS EVERY DAY

Bloating after almost every meal. Gas that refuses to go away. Heartburn that keeps returning. Stomach cramps. Strange bowel changes. Constant cravings.

Many people ignore these signs until the discomfort becomes part of their everyday life.

But here is something important: DO NOT ASSUME IT IS PARASITES.

Digestive symptoms can come from constipation, food intolerance, reflux, infections, or changes in your gut bacteria.

START HERE:

Drink enough water. Increase fiber gradually through vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, and other fiber rich foods. Pay attention to foods that repeatedly trigger your symptoms.

And if you genuinely suspect a parasite infection, testing can help identify the cause before you start taking any detox mixtures.

YOUR GUT DESERVES MORE THAN GUESSWORK.

THE TOMATO LEAVES MOST PEOPLE THROW AWAY MAY HAVE A TRADITIONAL USE

Most people see tomato leaves as garden waste. But traditionally, these green leaves have been used topically for areas experiencing discomfort and swelling.

Tomato leaves contain naturally occurring plant compounds that have been studied for antioxidant and biological activity.

TRADITIONAL TOPICAL USES INCLUDE:

• Joint discomfort
• Muscle soreness
• Minor swelling
• Inflammatory discomfort
• Sore, tired areas

A SIMPLE TRADITIONAL METHOD

Fresh leaves can be crushed into a paste and applied externally to the affected area.

Never eat tomato leaves or turn them into tea or juice. They contain alkaloids that can be harmful when swallowed.

TYPES OF VITAMINS AND WHAT THEY DO

There are 13 essential vitamins, and each one has an important role in keeping the body functioning properly.

Vitamin What It Does

Vitamin A , Supports vision, immunity, skin, and normal growth

Vitamin B1, Thiamine Helps convert food into energy and supports nerves

Vitamin B2, Riboflavin Supports energy production, skin, and normal cell function

Vitamin B3, Niacin Helps with energy metabolism and supports the nervous system and skin

Vitamin B5, Pantothenic acid Helps the body make energy and certain hormones

Vitamin B6 Supports brain function, red blood cell production, and protein metabolism

Vitamin B7, Biotin Helps process fats, carbohydrates, and proteins

Vitamin B9, Folate Important for DNA formation and making healthy red blood cells

Vitamin B12 Supports nerves, DNA production, and red blood cell formation

Vitamin C Supports immunity, collagen production, wound healing, and iron absorption

Vitamin D Helps the body absorb calcium and supports bones, muscles, and immunity

Vitamin E Acts as an antioxidant and helps protect cells from oxidative damage

Vitamin K Essential for normal blood clotting and supports bone health

A SIMPLE WAY TO REMEMBER THEM:
A, D, E and K are fat soluble vitamins, meaning the body can store them.
Vitamin C and the B vitamins are water soluble and generally need regular replenishment through food.

Good food sources include leafy greens, fruits, vegetables, beans, eggs, fish, whole grains, nuts, seeds and other nutrient-rich foods.

WHAT IF SOMETHING IN YOUR KITCHEN IS SLOWLY HARMING THE BRAIN YOU’RE TRYING TO PROTECT?

You cook with it. You wrap your food with it. You probably use it without giving it a second thought.

I’m talking about ALUMINUM FOIL.

Postmortem research has reported elevated aluminum deposits in brain tissue from some people with Alzheimer’s disease, raising concerns about long term aluminum exposure.

The concern becomes greater when aluminum foil comes into direct contact with hot, acidic or salty foods, because more aluminum can potentially migrate into the food.

So what can you do?

1. STOP MAKING ALUMINUM FOIL YOUR EVERYDAY FOOD WRAPPER

Use parchment paper or clean banana leaves instead, especially when wrapping hot food.

2. SUPPORT YOUR BODY NATURALLY

Coriander and parsley are traditionally used as cleansing herbs. Blend fresh coriander and parsley with water, strain, then add a little cumin and drink in the morning.

Your kitchen may look ordinary, but the choices you make there every day can matter.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL YOUR HEALTH FORCES YOU TO START PAYING ATTENTION.

Sometimes one small change can start a much bigger conversation about health.

Which one are you

IS YOUR HAND SHAKING FOR NO OBVIOUS REASON?

That little shaking you keep noticing in your hand may be worth paying attention to.

Parkinson’s disease can affect the brain cells responsible for controlling movement. For some people, the shaking starts in one hand and may later affect the other. You may also notice stiffness, slower movement, or difficulty with balance.

Give your nervous system good support every day. Eat more vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts, seeds and other nutrient rich foods. Ginger, turmeric and green leafy vegetables can also be included in a healthy diet.

Regular gentle exercise, stretching, good sleep and staying hydrated can help keep the body moving and support overall wellbeing.

Some medicines can help control Parkinson’s symptoms, and some people may benefit from other treatments.

DON’T JUST GET USED TO A HAND THAT KEEPS SHAKING. FIND OUT WHY IT IS HAPPENING.

YOUR SKIN CAN SOMETIMES REFLECT WHAT’S HAPPENING INSIDE YOUR LIVER

Persistent itching, yellowing of the skin or eyes, spider veins, red palms, unusual deposits around the eyelids, or changes in skin and nails can sometimes be linked to liver problems.

SUPPORT YOUR LIVER NATURALLY

• TUDCA: Often used to support bile flow and liver function.
• Milk thistle: Contains silymarin, a compound studied for liver support.
• Probiotic foods: Yoghurt, kefir, sauerkraut and other fermented foods can support a healthy gut microbiome.
• Fasting: A sensible eating window may support metabolic health.
• Keto diet: Reducing refined carbohydrates and added sugar can support metabolic health, especially when the diet is built around nutritious whole foods.

DON’T IGNORE CHANGES IN YOUR SKIN. YOUR BODY MAY BE TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.

YOUR ARTERIES MAY BE HARDENING WITHOUT YOU KNOWING IT

What if the calcium building up in your arteries is not something you should simply ignore?

Arterial calcification can make blood vessels stiff and is associated with cardiovascular disease. Supporting healthy calcium metabolism starts with the nutrients your body needs.

4 NUTRIENTS WORTH KNOWING:

1. VITAMIN K2
Especially MK 7, K2 helps regulate calcium use in the body and supports healthy bones and blood vessels.

2. VITAMIN D3
D3 plays an important role in calcium metabolism and works alongside vitamin K2. Take it with a meal containing healthy fat for better absorption.

3. MAGNESIUM
Magnesium supports normal muscle and blood vessel function and helps maintain healthy mineral balance.

4. IP6
Found naturally in foods such as beans, seeds, nuts and whole grains, IP6 can bind certain minerals in the digestive tract. Research into its effects on vascular calcification is still developing.

DON’T WAIT UNTIL YOUR HEART STARTS WARNING YOU.

Build your meals around nutrient rich foods, stay physically active, keep your blood pressure and cholesterol under control, and avoid smoking.

Your heart works for you every second. Give it the support it deserves.
