#Nutrition Super Important #Potassium

August 2, 2018 by Lisa T.

Our bodies require a whopping 4700 mg of the mineral potassium every day. It’s actually in most foods we eat but because the requirements are so high, people rarely get enough. A banana only has 440 mg so that barely helps. The risk of chronic low potassium is heart failure. You could end up in the ER. Your heart especially needs potassium to work properly. In addition, if you take HBP meds or other medications, it can tap out your […]

Natural Pain Relievers Beat Big Pharma Drugs on Safety and Effectiveness Over Time

July 19, 2018 by Lisa T.

“Drinking water and staying hydrated alleviates pain time and time again as dehydration causes histamines to react in areas of pain in the body. One of Big Pharma’s biggest dirty secrets is that most medications are in fact, antihistamines that treat the localized symptoms of pain – but not the cause.”-Craig Stellpflug Check out this great link for the full story.

What I’ve Learned Treating Functional Scoliosis

March 23, 2018 by Lisa T.

Your toned muscle holds all of your bones in proper alignment. Your muscles cannot be toned if they are injured, or contracted (tight). I’ve known that for twenty years. There is no amount of force that will align your bones without pain if your muscles are very tight/contracted. In addition, it makes no difference if your bones are aligned. What matters is that your TISSUE is aligned and strong. When that happens, your bones will follow, they’ll align and be […]

But they’re going to correct their ways now that the American public’s health is decimated because they don’t have a f….. clue about how healing really works. The mind folks. Your blood. Your thought and feeling habits. Your breath. That’s where healing lies. The fact is, YOUR BLOOD contains more powerful healing chemicals and energies than […]

The Biology of Belief

February 3, 2018 by Lisa T.

I read Bruce Lipton’s great book several years ago and it knocked me out back then. Bruce has a Ph.D. in Cell Biology and has done cutting-edge work in understanding how the cell membranes actually function. The scientific emphasis with regard to cells has always been the DNA and RNA which are nucleic acids found in the nucleus only of all of our cells. But Bruce has found that the nucleus of our cells does not set the agenda for […]

The Well-Documented Placebo Effect

January 27, 2018 by Lisa T.

I’m enjoying reading “The Science Delusion” by noted author and Ph.D. scientist Rupert Sheldrake. The title of his book can be misleading. He works in the field of science and supports REAL scientific rigor. This book points out what is rational scientific rigor and what is not! I recommend it. He says, “In several clinical trials, Prozac was no better than the placebo…The drug company, Eli Lilly, did not publish the results of unsuccessful trials which were revealed only because an independently […]
