Are Your Body Systems Out Of Alignment?We all know how it is to feel out of whack. Off-balance! Like all the pieces are coming apart. At times like these, it's obvious what symptoms we're experiencing on the outside. But it may not be clear whatıs going on inside our bodies. If you could look inside, you'd see that your interior body systems are out of alignment. Because that's what nutritional symptoms are, manifestations of body systems out of alignment. A good Nutritionist should be asking the right questions and seeking the underlying cause of nutritional symptoms that may not be apparent to the client. Aids to be used by the Nutritionist may vary depending of his or her education and experience. In addition to the 23 years experience in the field of Nutrition, I've included the study of Iridology, Hair Analysis, Eat 4 Your Blood Type, Acid-Alkaline Condition, Basal Metabolism, and Saliva Tests to aid evaluating the Bio-Alignment of the body systems or Base Line Health Condition. When symptoms first occur, is the indication of an individual's Base Line Health is "OUT OF WHACK"! Steps should be taken to discover the possible causes. Often, more than one cause produce the symptoms. The common medical solution is to cover up the symptoms with drugs. Cardiovascular Symptoms can be disrupted by factors including diet, stress, free radicals, lack of minerals and nutritional nutrients such as COQ 10, as well as doctor prescribed drugs. There various formulas to supply nutrients to meet the heartıs energy requirements, components of blood vessels, antioxidants to protect cholesterol, minerals for normal electrical rhythms, vitamins for healthy homocysteine levels, and fibers/red yeast rice for cholesterol elimination. Cognitive & Mood Symptoms are brain functions that can be affected by nutrition, life style, and environmental factors, leaving you susceptible to problems in memory, concentration, and mood. Low Blood Sugar or Hypoglycemia is a condition in which the pancreas regularly overacts to repeated high sugar intake by producing too much insulin. Excess insulin results in lowering blood sugar too much as the body strives to achieve proper glucose/insulin balance. This is particularly harmful to the brain, the most sensitive organ to blood sugar levels, which requires glucose as an energy source to think clearly. Hypoglycemia causes a change in the way the brain functions. Small fluctuations disturb one's feeling of well-being. Large fluctuations cause feelings of depression, anxiety, mood swings, fatigue and even aggressive behavior. Proper sugar balance is also needed for muscle contractions, the digestive system and nerve health. Additional symptoms: restlessness, insomnia, dizziness, general shakiness and trembling, ravenous hunger and craving for sweets, heart problems, nausea, blurry vision, and frequent headaches or migraines. Common Causes: Poor diet or excess sugar consumption of diet, poor pancreas function, drinking alcohol on an empty stomach, prolonged fasting or dieting for weight loss, food allergies, caffeine or nicotine, stress, exhausted adrenals, kidney failure or liver damage, and low thyroid. Digestive, Eliminative & Liver Symptoms are common problems that cause visits to the doctor. Without adequate nutrition, your liver cannot perform in critical function: detoxification, metabolism, regulation of blood sugar and conversion of vitamins into usable forms. There are specific herbs that detoxify, provide nutrients for the liver's energy needs and digestive enzymes that aid digestion. Insufficient daily elimination is a major cause of poor health or feeling out of whack. Immune Symptoms Appropriate immune response is critical for seasonal health and wellness all year around -- but it can be compromised by stress, lack of sleep, and poor diet. Bio-Aligned formulas modify histamine release, supply nutrients for the adrenals, clearing herbs, and antioxidants to defend white blood cells. Muscular & Skeletal Symptoms. Healthy bones, muscles and joints require continuous nutrition. Bio-Aligned formulas provide components of joint and connective tissue, bone-building minerals, soothing herbs and nutrients that support muscular energy. General Symptomatic Conditions Daily well-being requires nutrition for your major body systems. While typical multiples supply just enough nutrients to meet minimum requirements, Bio-Aligned formulas provide nutrients to support energy and liver function, heart-friendly herbs that promote circulation to the brain, immune-supporting vitamins, minerals for your skeletal system, and antioxidants for general protection. Visual Perception Symptoms Vision is affected by environmental toxins, poor nutrition, and exposure to sun, computer screens, and artificial light. Herbal-nutrient eye formulas support nerve signal transmissions, circulation to macular blood vessels, and antioxidant defense for lipid and aqueous eye tissue. Thought For The Day... Try to do something impossible -- rather than do nothing and succeed! Make your own day -- GREAT! |
