Have You Had a Cold for Too Long?

I grew up with the understanding that a cold lasted 3 days.  On the fourth day it should be just mild symtoms and after a week you were symptom free. Why is it that I see many clients with moderate symptoms after a week? Not sick enough to stay in bed but definitely not feeling fully recovered.

On average adults have between 2 to 4 colds per year. If your cold is lasting weeks rather than days that is a lot of time wasted not feeling great and not performing at your best. There are many ways you can get on top of your cold  and flu symptoms & recover faster.

One of my favourite products is Ethical Nutrients Immune Defence which contains a clinically studied 6g dose of Andrographis in each dose.  Andrographis reduces the duration and severity of your cold and flu. Immune Defence helps relieve your cold symptoms as well as supporting your immune system. This means you not only recover more quickly but you are far less likely to catch another cold!! Immune Defence helps you stay well during cold and flu season.

Clinical studies have also shown that high dose Vitamin C  also helps reduce the severity and duration of cold and flu symptoms. At Cranes we have some great tasting, readily absorbed Vitamin C products. Try  Bioceuticals Ultra Potent-C Effervescent High Dose Vitamin C powder - it tastes so great even the kids will be asking for more!

Another clinically proven treatment for cold and flu symptoms is - believe it or not - chicken soup! Try Rosemary's delicious Immune Booster Soup recipe containing chicken & shiitake mushrooms - yummy!! And while you are in the kitchen, try mixing up some of Rosemary's Flu-Fighter Tea. Made with warming ginger, honey, lemon, garlic and cinnamon, you will feel your symptoms improve with each sip.

So this winter, tackle your cold symptoms with our proven remedies and feel better within days not weeks!

Let Not Your Heart be Troubled

Sitting in a funeral yesterday listening to the minister, this was the line that stood out to me.  How many people miss out on happiness because they fill themselves with all their troubles.  And don't not think that this does not effect disease in the body.  Want to talk about the link emotions have on your disease state.  Book a Naturopathy appointment today on 9969 4700  Rosemary Manners

Tumeric - the new "wonderdrug" for pain

Did you know up to 68% of people experience pain on a regular basis? They may experience arthritic pain, joint swelling and tenderness, period pain, sports injuries or muscle pain to mention just a few types.

Did you also know that recent studies have shown tumeric to be as effective as NSAID's in relieving pain?

Ethical Nutrients Pain Relief contains clinically trialled, gut friendly BCM-95 Tumeric. BCM-95 Tumeric has been shown to have absorption enhanced by up to seven times, compared to standard tumeric extract. This bioavailablity technology also ensures the curcumin, a key active ingredient of tumeric, is concentrated and the 200 naturally occurring compunds of tumeric including essential oils and resins, are retained.
The resulting BCM-95 Tumeric contains the full phytochemical spectrum, making it a complete extract with enhanced absorption! This means better, gut-friendly pain relief!

Clinical studies have shown that BCM-95 Tumeric is just as effective as  an NSAID for pain relief. It reduces both joint pain and joint swelling as effectively as NSAID's without the harmful gut side-effects.

For acute pain, such as sports injuries, the recommended dosage is 2 capsules three times a day. For the ongoing management of pain, such as arthritis, the recommended dosage is one capsule twice daily.

For safe, ongoing pain relief for arthritis why not consider adding Ethical Nutrients Hi-Strength Liquid Fish Oil. Just one teaspoon daily of this minty flavoured, deodorised fish oil helps reduce the inflammation associated with your arthritis. It also has the added benefit of helping maintain a healthy LDL:HDL cholesterol ratio and assisting with cognitive function. It helps keep your brain healthy too!

So next time your joints are painful or swollen, try a natural pain relief solution and experience effective relief without the side-effects.

Only 2% of the Metagenome is Human

Have you heard about about the Human Microbiome Project? The total number of microbes living on or in a human being is called their microbiome. Surprisingly enough if we look at all the cells together we are only 10% human!  The genes only 2% are human!
In 2008 the Human Micobiome Project (HMP) was instigated to characterise the microbial communities found at several different sites around the human body, and to analyse the role of these microbes in human health and disease. It was revealed that there is enormous variations of the strain, species and even genus levels of bacteria, both within an individual and between individuals. Everybody's microbione has unique qualities- in fact, it is thought that each person has at least one strain of bacteria specific for themselves.
This bacteria can live in harmony with us helping us process nutrients, degrading xenobiotics, protecting us from other microbes and regulating our homeostasis. However sometimes the wrong bugs get in the wrong places or too many multiple too quickly.
There are two big things we can do. Firstly we can reduce the microbial load. In the Naturopathy clinic we use herbs to do this. This needs to be done carefully to avoid any Herxheimer reaction. We usually use colostrum powder to help here.
Sometimes depending on the bacteria treatment will occur in a wave like method. You'll feel better after 6 to 8 weeks then you may have another episode as the next lot of bacteria flourish however with each episode it is likely to be less intense and shorter duration if you reduce the microbial load each time.

Secondly we can change the terrain. When I say this I mean to change the surrounding tissues. Things that may build up an unfavourable terrain include;

• refined western diet
• lack of exercise, 
• lack of sunshine
• stress
• inadequate rest
• excessive hygiene
• medications
• toxic exposure 
  
  

Our Clean With Program is designed to address all this and more.  Book to start now on 9969 4700

Clean Within - It's Time for The Amalgams to Come Out

Digestive Healing Programs and Dentistry

The concept is simple everyone has a mouth and many years ago it was current practice to use amalgam fillings. If you have them they are very old and possibly leaking. This adds to the bodies toxicity.

The mouth is situated first in the digestive process so it is prudent to consider if that may have any impact on the program you are about to start.

Some things you may consider is;

• Infection and inflammation of the gums. This is called Periodontal disease.
• Abscesses under the teeth
• Silver amalgam fillings
• Poor Oral Hygiene.

In all these cases either bacteria or heavy metals is being swallowed into the digestive system having an impact lower down in the digestive tract.

Did you know mercury has been implicated as a cofactor in systemic human autoimmunity. Studies showed that mercury exposure increased levels of antinuclear antibodies. Most human mercury exposure comes from mercury vapour outgassing from amalgam fillings, at a rate of 2 to 28 micrograms per facet surface per day, of which about 80% is absorbed, according to the World Health Organisation.

Good nutrition starts with a healthy mouth. Regular dental checks are worth while to eliminate factors that may be contributing to digestive dysbiosis.

A good local referral would be Hugh Fleming Dentistry who is able to assess both your periodontal and dental health and treat as required. Dr Fleming advocates the use of ceramic (non-amalgam) fillings and his team of highly trained dental hygienists attend to the periodontal concerns of many patients.
