Naka Herbs and Vitamins brings you Dr. Rona’s Healthewise Digest: Vitamin B12

Categories: Alzheimers, Depression, Energy, Mood, Stress

Vitamin B 12 is often over looked as a treatment of feeling tired and sometimes to get to the route of being tired it requires a complicated approach, but sometimes it is simple as a B 12 deficiency.  Below is the beginning of Dr. Rona’s Healthwise Gigest article on Vitamin B12.  I hope you find the information useful.

You complain about digestive disturbances and chronic fatigue. After your workout you are far from energized – you are even more tired. You feel like you are just not getting enough air, feel weak and experience numbness and tingling in your hands and feet. The worst part, however, is not being able to remember anything and you feel an ongoing anxiety – worrying about the least little thing. Often you even feel depressed, lethargic. You have ruled out all possible pathology as well as hidden food sensitivities, which can mimic many diseases. Your doctor cannot find a thing wrong with you, is recommending anti-anxiety and anti-depressant drugs, and has neglected to check for B12 deficiency.

Categories: Alive Brand, Alzheimers, Inflammation, Joint Health

Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus Spring Flyer is almost coming to an end.  If you have inflammation and pain, one of the best kept secrets that Dr. Oz has mentioned on his show is the Indian Spice Tumeric.  Tumeric is not only good for inflammation, but also excellent in preventing Alzheimer’s Disease.  Take Tumeric along with Coconut Oil and you will be in great shape! Below is the write up from the flyer.

Alive Turmeric (Curcumin) New Formula 2X Stronger Increased to 500mg - Help for alzheimer’s and Cancer Prevention!

(Vancouver Sun) & UCLA reported that “curcumin may slow Alzheimer’s diseases” and also may

help with cancer prevention. In India, where curries (which have curcumin) are eaten daily, Alzheimer’s rates are 4.4 times lower than North America! Looks like it is time for North Americans to spice up our life with Turmeric! Turmeric (Curcuma longa) has been used for 4,000 years to treat a variety of conditions. Studies show that turmeric may help fight infections, reduce inflammation, treat digestive problems, liver problems, skin diseases, and wounds. Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant and it also stops platelets from clumping together to form blood clots. Turmeric TARGETS Inflammation which is the root of all disease and thus offers health improvements for just about everyone.

Coconut Oil & Organic Coconut Oil Benefits Helps Alzheimer’s

Categories: Alzheimers, Heart Health, Weight Loss

History of Virgin Coconut Oil – Clearing its Name!

Since the 1960s, coconut oil has been unfairly labeled as “unhealthy.” The media reported studies of how tropical coconut oils were laden with artery-clogging saturated fats. What was left out of these reports was the fact that the coconut oil used in the studies was not the virgin oil used for centuries but hydrogenated coconut oil. We have since learned it’s the hydrogenation — artificially adding a hydrogen molecule to oils in order to make them shelf-stable — that’s the problem, not the coconut oil itself. Hydrogenated soy, corn, and canola oils — loaded with dangerous trans-fats and processed with toxic hexane solvents — are routinely added to packaged foods. Hydrogenation fattened corporate profits and American waistlines, and is now linked with trans-fats and associated heart disease.

Organic Coconut Oil Benefits:

* Certified organic and non-GMO coconut oil

* Made from fresh coconuts, not dried copra

* Cold-pressed

* Unrefined

* Chemical-free

* Unfermented

* Unbleached

* Undeodorized

* Unhydrogenated

* Pure white like fresh coconut

* Tastes like fresh coconut

* Has a fresh coconut fragrance

* Made with our Fresh is Best ™ commitment

Please check out this clip on coconut oil below.  At Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus we have been trying to spread the awareness of the benefits of taking coconut oil.  It is difficult at times because of the public being miss-informed a few years ago.  Coconut oil was said to raise cholesterol, however, they were talking about the GOOD Cholesterol which is HDL.  Also, the type of coconut oil is important and Nutiva is excellent, most importantly it is unhydrogenated.  The video below shows Steve Newport’s experience battling and improving his symptoms of Alzheimer’s.

Lorna Vanderhaeghe on Fanny Keifer Show Feb 16th!

Categories: Alzheimers, Hormone Balancing

Check out Lorna Vanderhaeghe’s interview on the Fanny Kiefer Show from February 16th.  It was all about Alzheimers.  It is amazing to think that by the time the majority of the ageing population is 80, over 50% will have some form of Alzheimer or some form of Dementia.  Remember that while genetics do play a part, Alzheimers is preventable.  Alzheimers is essentially inflammation of the brain and we can do simple things like managing our stress levels, doing something about your high blood pressure and taking out sugars out of your diet!

Remember 82% of Canadians are Magnesium deficient!  This is astounding and so preventable.  Lorna Vanderhaeghe has MagSmart which is in powder form, it tastes great, easy to consume, doesn’t cause diarrhea and helps to control inflammation in the brain.  Not only does it help with preventing Alzheimers it also helps to reduce high blood pressure, heart health and is paramount in helping mood disorders.
