The buzz in healthcare these days is all about “ObamaCare” which is officially known as the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). It is also known as the “Affordable Care Act or abbreviated as ACA. I have worked on projects as a Healthcare Informatics Consultant where I teach physicians, nurses, and healthcare staff how to chart electronically in computers which mandates that healthcare facilities have to move from paper charting to electronic medical records. Being in these environments I have seen some patients on copious amounts of prescription drugs and mainly due to poor lifestyle choices. The side effects of many of these drugs are incredible and can cause even more health problems.
Please let me stress that while I definitely believe there is a place for pharmaceuticals in health maintenance and they do save lives, I have also seen far too many people depend solely on their medications and are less proactive with their health. Never ever stop taking your medications without the advice and consent of your doctor. Nor am I suggesting that your supplements ought to replace your medications. I am merely sharing that living a healthy lifestyle of eating healthy, exercising, and taking supplements has been known to assist in maintaining good health.
I have come to the conclusion that while it is a great thing to have health insurance – the best health insurance IS your health. Having all the wealth in the world means nothing without great health.
One Medical Doctor in Family Practice actually mentioned once that if people simply took the time to take care of themselves there would not be a high volume of patients frequenting their establishment. I have a passion for health and wellness from the holistic point of view and I also studied some Dietetics and Nutrition so I have seen both sides of the coin as well as the effects on people who have chosen to not take care of themselves.
Instead of being proactive with their health some people prefer to ignore this until they experience failing health. There are definitive consequences to our choices, healthy and unhealthy. Yet how does one do that when we are bombarded with food commercials that are promoting junk and fast foods that are filled with hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrup? It all starts with mindset which is why I teach about reframing one’s mindset because in order to make effective changes and achieve our goals and dreams we have to think differently. We have to reframe our thinking and make healthier choices. We need to DETOXIFY, BALANCE and then BUILD up our bodies.
1. DETOX
Just like we take our cars in for regular servicing and check ups we need to do the same thing with our bodies. In order to have optimal health though we first have to detoxify the systems of our body. That will get rid of all unwanted toxic build up and wastes.
2. Balance
Then we have to balance our bodies. This means getting the different systems as well as our hormones in balance to where everything is functioning efficiently.
3. Build
We then have to BUILD our bodies by supplying the necessary nutrients, vitamins, minerals, superfoods, and superfruits to assist in the smooth running of everything.
You owe it to yourself to take care of YOU. Do not wait until you are on handfuls of prescription drugs and you have irreversible diseases. Take control now. It may cost you now to get into the gym, eat healthy, and take supplements. However an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It will end up costing you your health, high doctors and hospital bills, and then you will still have to spend money on the “preventative portion”. Trust me I see sick people all the time when I am consulting in hospitals and doctors offices.
I am an expert in natural products and supplements. I had my own business in the natural products industry where my clients were the top products in big and small health food stores. I know what these supplements do and why they help. People always tell me that I look so great for my age. What’s my secret? Well I take care of myself and I have always taken healthy products. I have some amazing products that I would be delighted and honoured to share with you how to:
1. Cleanse
2. Balance
3. Build
Your bodies and health to an optimal state.
