I have the next edition of Bruce West’s Newsletter  out for download.  It has been a while since I put one out and I’m a little back logged, but since so many of you asked about them, here is more great health info.

If you are chronically tense or anxious then there is a nervous system imbalance.   If you have lots of spasms or muscle cramps that’s a good indication that your parasympathetic nervous system is not running well enough to slow your body or mind down.  The primary alkaline minerals that help are potassium and magnesium mostly found in vegetables.

The flip side are the stimulators, grains, cakes, pies, cookies, crackers, pasta contain acidic minerals that stimulate the sympathetic nervous system and keep you going, and going.  The common American diet often contains too much of these and not enough veggies.

Organically bound minerals from Standard Process is our best alkaline mineral supplement.  Most supplement makers get potassium from salt.  Standard Process gets it from Spanish Moss, and Alfalfa.   Also, a chronic dry mouth may be a call for more minerals.

Have you had your rocks today?
Most calcium on the market is Calcium Carbonate (limestone) or oyster shell.  This is very difficult for your body to use, as a result it soaks up lots  of stomach acid leaving you with indigestion.  If you are having reflux issues, check your calcium.

Medical magazine contradictions are too numerous to list here just download and read page 3.  They say one thing to help then give the opposite advice for medical treatment in the same magazine.  The truth about cholesterol and heart disease and diabetes on page 4.

Cancer Fighters

More good news for sulforaphane from things like our old friends kale and broccoli, etc.  They  found good research using these for breast cancer prevention.  If sulforaphane is isolated from it’s food source it loses 95% of its activity.  They may claim anti-cancer activity but forget to tell you that it doesn’t work because it is not in its whole-food form.  This is why  we recommend Standard Process for supplements.

Cruciferous Complete from Standard Process has been proven to detoxify excess estrogen.
as a nice bonus it also may help age-related macular degeneration

Crop Nutrition Declining over 50 years

43 common crops showed declines.  They compared standard soil to organic soil with organic mulch.  The organic soil and mulch plants had 300-500% more calcium, magnesium, potassium.  That was 50 years ago.  Since then there has been even more depletion.

After having dogs most of my life, there is some wonderful info on pets and having healthy pets.
