Iodine: You need it. You don’t produce it. So go get it.

Attention: “The salt used in processed foods, which is the major source of salt for most Americans, typically does not contain iodine.” 

Why is it important to consume iodine?

Why should you care about iodine, you ask? Simply put, iodine is an essential mineral, and your body doesn’t produce it. Since your body doesn’t make iodine, you must consume it; otherwise, your thyroid gland won’t function correctly. Since the thyroid gland “plays a major role in the metabolism, growth, and development of the human body,” you will feel the consequences of a low iodine intake. 

Whether through fish, seaweed, milk, yogurt, cheese, iodized salt, or supplements like Nascent Iodine Advanced, consuming the right amount of iodine is crucial to your body functioning at its highest level. “Don’t worry,” you say. “I eat tuna every Thursday and yogurt every Sunday morning. So I get the iodine I need for my thyroid gland to function best.” 

Unfortunately, you do need to worry because “the only place where iodine builds up is in your thyroid gland. Otherwise, your body excretes this essential nutrient within 24 hours.” These facts mean you must consume iodine daily.

Olive Oil vs. Olive Leaf Extract: Only One Reigns Supreme

Your vocabulary and your diet need to include the F-word: Fat.

Osteoporosis: “Childhood Disease with Old-Age Consequences”

Osteoporosis is “a childhood disease with old-age consequences.” 

NIH Osteoporosis and Related Bone Diseases adds that “the health habits your kids are forming now can make, or literally break, their bones as they age.” How is this possible, you ask? Mayo Clinic reminds you that “your bones are in a constant state of renewal– new bone is made, and old bone is broken down. When you’re young, your body makes new bone faster than it breaks down old bone,

Osteoporosis: ‘The Silent Killer’ Creeps

Low bone density or osteoporosis victimizes 54 million Americans. The National Osteoporosis Foundation says, “one in two women and up to one in four men over the age of 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis.” 

Bones Create, Breakdown, & Replace But Not At the Same Rate

Mayo Clinic sums up osteoporosis succinctly, stating that “bone is living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced. Osteoporosis occurs when the creation of new bone doesn’t keep up with the loss of old bone.” Referring to bones as ‘living’ is both a truth and a call for a mind shift.

Food. It’s What’s for Life.

“Beef. It’s What’s for Dinner.” is arguably one of the most successful food-specific advertising slogans and campaigns to launch in the 1990s and, perhaps, ever. Odds are, this slogan still pops up in your mind from time-to-time.

When Antibiotics Upset the Gut, Prebiotics Report for Duty

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) define antibiotics as “medicines that fight infections caused by bacteria in humans and animals by either killing the bacteria or making it difficult for the bacteria to grow and multiply.”

The Rarely Discussed Side Effects of Antibiotics

You may be well aware of the wonders of antibiotics and likely have experienced their ability to deliver sickness a knockout, but do you know the less than glamorous side of antibiotics?

  • Fact: “Your gut houses about 80% of the body’s immune cells,” which is a monstrous issue when “antibiotics damage your child’s gut bacteria [and] causes an imbalance called dysbiosis.”
