Weighing the Risks of Raw Milk and Medical Care

Weighing the Risks of Raw Milk and Medical Care
How much faith do you put in the recommendations made by “experts”? 
If you’re like I used to be, you considered the word of people connected with “three-letter” agencies to be almost law. FDA approval meant a product was safe to use. The CDC made medical recommendations with our health as the utmost priority. And so on. After all, these were the people who knew the most about their respective topics, and the entire purpose of these agencies was to keep us safe. Right?
Same with doctors. I once believed them to be the ultimate authorities on health. After all, they spent years learning about it, and that had to count for something, didn’t it?

3 Reasons I Believe in Plant Medicine

3 Reasons I Believe in Plant Medicine
Modern/western medicine has only been around for a relatively short period of time. Yes, it is all that most of us have known, but a hundred years is a tiny fraction of the span of human history.
How did people survive without the medicines we know today?
They used what the earth provided. Plants have incredible powers to keep us healthy and give our bodies what they need to heal.

Is Organic Produce Worth It?

Is Organic Produce Worth It?
Organic produce has become a hot topic as people grow more interested in eating healthier foods and avoiding toxins.
It is also a rather divisive topic. Some people claim it's the only way to go, and everything they eat must be organic. Others scoff at the idea that organic food is any healthier than conventional.
The truth is that both sides have some merit. It's not a black and white issue, and you must decide for yourself which shade of gray is most closely aligned with your needs.

Meet Melissa Denelsbeck

 

For years, I was trapped in a fog, never feeling 100%, always tired but too stressed out to get a good night’s sleep, struggling through headaches 3-4 times each week. Almost every afternoon at work, I would hit that mid-afternoon slump and be unable to keep my eyes open. Often, my headaches would start around this same time and last through the rest of the day. All I wanted to do was go home and sleep, but when I went to bed, my thoughts would race, and I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.

I felt like I was stuck in a never-ending cycle of fatigue – tired all day and wide awake at night, and the headaches just made it all more difficult to deal with. I pushed on as well as I could through the sleepiness and the pain, but I never felt like I was functioning at full capacity.

Then, I started making some changes in my life and becoming aware of what I was putting in and on my body. Over time, I realized that my headaches were becoming less frequent, and my sleep quality, energy, and mental clarity were improving.

Now, a couple years later, I feel my energy levels remain steady from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I am able to quiet my anxious thoughts and fall asleep quickly at night. And the headaches? They’re so infrequent that I can’t even say how often they come – maybe 3-5 a year?

It wasn’t even that difficult a change to make. I just swapped out products in my life that were contributing to my bad health, and I replaced them with versions that enhance my wellness instead.

It’s a step-by-step process that you can take at your own pace, and I am here to be your guide on the journey and empower you to take back your own health!
