Vitamin D decreases Diabetes Risk

Medical Reports / By

  As last week’s blog post highlights, Vit D is an important supplement for whole body health.   I’m not a huge advocate for taking a lot of pills, vitamins, supplements or prescription medications, but there are two supplements I feel there is so much positive medical literature on that they are my *go to* recommendations for almost every patient: Vitamin D supplements and Omega 3 fatty acid supplements. So today, let’s look at yet another way that Vitamin D impacts the body: decreasing our set up for metabolic syndrome.   Because there are Vitamin D receptors in insulin target […]

Vitamin D boosts the health benefits of weight loss!   By simply adding Vitamin D supplementation to your weight loss plan, you reduce your whole-body inflammation, a new study suggests (published April 23, 2015 in Cancer Prevention Research.)   High levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin (IL)-6 have been linked to increased risk of developing devastating illness including cancer… as chronic inflammation is thought to be a pro-tumor state for the body.   By reducing systemic inflammation, you reduce your chances of cancer and other chronic diseases.   This is one of the reasons I find grounding the body (touching

Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Medical Reports, Soul Healing / By

A recent medical study looked at the effect of spirituality and religion on quality of life in cancer patients.   Participants could be spiritual, religious, both or none. Scientists wanted to look at what effect, if any, spirituality and religiosity had on patient outcomes, and if being religious worked synergistically with spirituality or independently from it.     Over 550 patients were entered into this study, all were cancer patients undergoing treatment for various cancers… these patients were followed for one year and were assessed for quality of life.

Are Your Shoes Causing More Harm Than Good?

So… I’m not particularly into shoes.   Seeing the beautiful results of Earthing on my patients (and in my own life) has me opting for going barefoot whenever possible, and sleeping grounded at night too.   So I found it very interesting when the latest medical reports showed that the new trend towards maximalist shoes (thick soles, thick padded heels) completely failed to cushion the foot on impact and in fact increases the risk for injury…. the exact opposite of manufacturers’ claims.   Turns out, cushioning does more harm than good for the dynamics of your foot, luring you into

Although it is well know that exercise has been shown to improve sleep due to boosted immune response, core body
