Health For Human

When I was a kid, if I were told that I’d be writing a book about diet and nutrition when I was older, let alone having been doing a health related radio show for over 36 years, I would’ve thought that whoever told me that was out of their mind. Living in Newark, New Jersey, my parents and I consumed anything and everything that had a face or a mother except for dead, rotting, pig bodies, although we did eat bacon (as if all the other decomposing flesh bodies were somehow miraculously clean). Going through high school and college it was no different. In fact, my dietary change did not come until I was in my 30’s.

Just to put things in perspective, after I graduated from Weequahic High School and before going to Seton Hall University, I had a part-time job working for a butcher. I was the delivery

We all know that the soil is abominable because of the
petro-chemical fertilizers that basically destroyed all healthy nutrients.
There are two minerals that you need for good health.

MAGNESIUM

If you want to maintain normal muscle and nerve function,
keeping a healthy and strong immune system, maintaining a normal heart rhythm,
building strong bones, and involving at least 300 biochemical reactions in the
body, you must have magnesium.

When deficient in magnesium you will experience muscle
spasms, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, irregular heart
rhythm, anxiety disorders, migraines, osteoporosis and cerebral infractions.

The best foods for magnesium are:

Dark leafy greens, especially spinach, chard, and kale.

Nuts and seeds, especially squash and pumpkin seeds, sesame
seeds, brazil nuts, non-irradiated almonds, cashews, pine nuts, peanuts, pecans
and walnuts.

Beans and lentils. Especially white beans, black-eyed peas,
kidney beans, garbanzo beans, lentils and pinto beans.

Whole grains, especially brown rice,

How to interpret your urine analysis

Your kidneys produce urine, and this urine is an excellent indicator of your current health. Healthy urine is usually clear, odorless, and free from excess sugar, proteins and bacteria.

If your urine exhibits any abnormal symptoms, it’s likely that your body is experiencing some kind of stress. The presence of certain enzymes and chemicals in the urine can indicate a number of different diseases, infections or other issues.

By taking note of the color, smell and general appearance of your urine on a daily basis, you stand a much better chance of catching any potential issues before they become serious problems.

Urine microscopy and dipstick testing are two diagnostic procedures that help to detect diseases earlier than would be possible by simply observing the appearance and smell of one’s urine. As such, these tests are common practice for most doctors practicing internal medicine.

What is Hashimoto’s disease?

Do you prefer listening to the article? Then please click the audio below-

Hashimoto’s disease is an autoimmune disorder in which the body mistakenly makes antibodies that attack its own thyroid gland as if it were a foreign invader.

This can lead to gradual enlargement of the thyroid gland, known as a goiter, and other problems such as feeling cold all the time, feeling hungry all the time, insomnia, depression, anxiety, and losing weight with difficulty.

If left untreated, Hashimoto’s disease can significantly shorten life expectancy. Fortunately, treatment is effective if caught early enough.

What Are the Symptoms of Hashimoto’s Disease?

The most common symptom of Hashimoto’s disease is feeling cold all the time. This is due to the inability of the underactive thyroid gland to produce enough metabolic energy, which is responsible for regulating our body temperature.

If left untreated, Hashimoto’s disease can cause weight
