This Kryptonite for your health is more rampant that the Corona Virus!

by

For today’s discussion on Facebook live, I’ll be continuing the series 10 Biblical Principles to Create Your Best Health. You are going to learn the #1 reason that is the kryptonite for your future health. In addition, I’ll address the importance of finding the right information to implement for your health. Yes, even seeking right counsel is a principle found in the Bible (Proverbs 19:20, Proverbs 20:15)

The Word of God is the ultimate practical guide for your life. If you’re looking for answers for daily living, direction, clarity, and even guidance for your health, it’s all in there. God gives us direction concerning where to look and where to go for practical information. God has given us wise counselors such as doctors, right pastors, and many others. He places provisions in our lives to provide what we need when we need and seek it. The question becomes, do you seek what you need for the best health of your body, mind and spirit? I hope so! 

I hope you can join me today in learning what the Scripture has to say regarding these matters. If you can’t make it live, no worries, the session will remain on Facebook. Also, as my gift to you, I will send an eBook, 10 Biblical Principles to Create Your Best Health to you in the future if you sign up for the free report at www.nutritionwithdoc.com.

Organic food at half the price!

by

Misfits Market sells organic food at about half the price you would pay in a store. They sell fruits and vegetable that they can’t sell to the stores that are a little bit bumpy, too big or if they have too many.

I signed up for the 10-12 lbs. of organic mixed fruits + veggies. This amount serves up to 2 people for a week. It is $19 plus $4.50 for shipping vs. $35 – $40 at the store.

According to Misfits Market website, almost half of the food grown by farmers in this country is never sold, but eating healthy keeps getting more expensive. This is a cycle of food waste that needs to end, and there’s a very simple solution to this very ugly problem. Eat Misfits.

3 Reasons to sign up to use Misfit Market organic produce

  1. Delicious and nutritious, at incredibly reasonable prices. By sourcing high quality fruits and vegetables that stores can’t or won’t sell, their prices are up to 50% less than you’d find in stores.
  2. Almost half of all produce harvested in the United States is never eaten. Fruits and vegetables go unpicked in fields or get thrown away at the store, simply because they don’t look good.
  3. This helps farms find a market for the things they grow. Making it easier to put fresh fruits and vegetables at the center of our diet.

You can purchase organic food at about half the price and get 25% off your first order at http://misfitsmarket.refr.cc/paulettesedlak

4 Important Things You May Not Know About Hydration That Could Harm Your Health

by

Cheers! These non-alcoholic thirst quenchers are sure to please a crowd and even yourself. I’ll tell you the ingredients in a moment. First, I want you to know proper hydration is so important for your health. Your 30-40 trillion cells all need water to live. The average adult male is about 60 percent water, while the average adult woman is about 55 percent water. 

About three-quarters of your brain is comprised of water.  Dehydration can cause fatigue and decreased brain function. It can also affect your mood.  When you are dehydrated your brain shrinks.

You may not know that:

  1. Effects of dehydration on your brain:
  • Affects your mood
  • Reduces your cognitive and motor skills
  • Makes you more sensitive to pain
  • Affects your memory 
  1. People who exercise (especially athletes), the elderly and those with health conditions are more prone to becoming dehydrated.
  2. Water has the ability to dissolve many substances, which increases their availability within the body. This enhances cellular access to valuable nutrients, minerals, and other natural compounds for biological processes.
  3. You may be chronically dehydrated, but are unaware of the symptoms. Thirst is a poor indicator for this condition. Usually, by the time you are thirsty, you are dehydrated.  Chronic dehydration can be characterized by urinary tract infections, constipation, heartburn, weight gain, and premature aging.

Many benefits of water are that it:  

  • Increases brain function
  • Boosts energy
  • Flushes toxins from your body
  • Helps promote a healthy complexion
  • Reduces the risk of bladder cancer
  • Improves your mood
  • Decreases hunger
  • Supports proper digestion
  • Prevents constipation and supports healthy bowel movements
  • Supports immune system health
  • Regulates body temperature
  • Supports a healthy heart by maintaining “blood and plasma viscosity and fibrinogen distribution 

Perhaps you may not be used to drinking enough water. If you’re not a big water drinker maybe it’s because you don’t like the taste. Perhaps your water tastes bad because of chemicals in it. I drink reverse osmosis processed water and it tastes wonderfully clean and refreshing. This makes me want to drink more. I encourage everyone to drink reverse osmosis processed water. You will love it. A home unit can be purchased and installed.

Think of creative ways to increase your water intake. Try making delicious flavored waters like the ones I made that are in the picture. The first one has the juice of 2 limes, a few sprigs of mint and a couple of slices of fresh ginger. I sweetened it with stevia and monk fruit. The next one has fresh blueberries, the juice of 2 lemons and fresh strawberries. It is berry delicious! 

You make a variety of flavored waters to increase your water intake. Try to avoid the sugary drinks that will wreak havoc on your blood sugar.

To your health,

Dr. Paulette Sedlak
