Feel Immediate Relief With Grounding: Relax Your Muscles, Strengthen Your Bones

    Our musculoskeletal system, the bones, muscles, ligaments and joints that hold us together and allow us to function all day long, is the perfect conduit for grounding.   When you touch the earth outside, your entire body is instantaneously grounded and this is because your entire musculoskeletal system is conductive. The fact that our entire skeleton as well as the connective tissues that hold all our organs and soft tissues in place within our skeleton is a conductive conduit for healing is the basis for how and why grounding works. The first medical study to reveal this was …

      Over the next five weeks, I’m going to be running a series of detailed videos and helpful information on exactly how grounding supports our body — …from cardiovascular support to metabolic support to hormone support and more.   I’ve noticed there just isn’t a lot of concrete information disseminated on exactly how grounding works.

Average vit D levels were lowest among participants found to have dementia (average levels were 16 ng/mL — goal vit D levels are 40 ng/mL or higher according to the Vitamin D Council.) Followed for almost 5 years, …

5 Crucial Ways To Improve Bone Strength (no Rx needed…)

  I just returned from a medical conference and one of the sessions was a 2015 update on osteoporosis prevention and treatment.   The room was filled with physicians approaching bone health from an incredibly narrow, conventionally minded angle.   It was very limited and it was actually downright upsetting — we spent 99% of the lecture discussing the side effects of osteoporosis Rx and how to try to navigate around the fact that the prescriptions actually make bones more brittle, increase atypical fracture risk, and even double cancer risk.   NO thank you.   That presentation fired me up …

Thoughts On Health… my fav water filter

  You all know how I feel about fluoride. I’ve blogged here about why I avoid it in my toothpaste and why I don’t really want to be drinking it, either. In fact, as I get older and have passed the age of peak bone density (and anyone who is over the age of 30 has) I want to preserve bone mass more than ever. I really think it is important that I avoid fluoride altogether (and soy too.) Alas, this is impossible. If you eat food grown from the earth, you consume fluoride. Thanks to the government mass medicating …
