Painful Knees and Back?? Ouch!

Healthy Homes Posted on by

Hello – I hope this finds you well? Full Spectrum CBD OIL This was brought to our attention a while ago and we waited until we were contacted with a weblink and a suggestion to see what was available. I decided to look at what this CBD oil was likely to be helpful for and when I saw a pain management area I thought “I have to try this!” Osteo-arthritis and little cartilage left! Over the years my knees have been really very tricky to deal with! X-Rays a few years ago said “Yes – you have osteo-arthritis and little cartilage left!” SO – THAT was fun to hear!!! Years of manual farm work a long time ago, and more recently the lifting and moving of Drums and PA equipment in bands I was involved with had taken a toll! A slip and fall while a loading session was in place ended with a landing on my knees which probably didn’t help!! Anyway – since all that happened my knees have been an interesting thing to deal with. I have heard that replacement knees are really not good – I also know someone who had the op for that and … Continue reading →

Healthy Breakfast – Better Gut Health!?

Healthy Homes Posted on by

It may well sound a bit “weird” to head an article with ….and Better Gut Health. However – the gut is your “second brain” and if it’s upset it can do a lot to make you unwell! An excellent morning breakfast is good to keep things moving and “regular”…. Our Version of a Healthier Energy Breakfast We started to use organic porridge and Rice Dream Original Organic milk (non-dairy milk) some while ago.. This is a most excellent replacement for other breakfasts – especially on the colder mornings! (We started by using gome goat’s yoghurt, some meaningful amount that you would like. Goats yoghurt is kinder to your system than dairy. Less “mucous-y” and easier to digest.) However it is quite expensive and so we changed to organic porridge from a health food shop. For two we use: 14 fl oz of rice milk and just under 2 oz porridge. Use the smaller flaked porridge; the large flakes don’t work as well for porridge. Heat to the boil; giving a good stir. For each person add: 1 teaspoon (or as much or as little as you want) linseed – to keep you going 1 teaspoon Pumpkin seeds 1 teaspoon Sunflower … Continue reading →

Is This A Growing Threat As We Grow Older?

Healthy Homes Posted on by

Hello again Yes, I know! I HAVE posted a similar newsletter  recently titled: Dementia is a Cruel Disease To Watch I make NO apologies for sending this because I sincerely hope that you are not involved with anyone who is suffering with Dementia, but this IS going out again now because, as I understand it, this condition is now considered just a growing “threat” as time goes by.  I AM posting this out again because we are, right now, involved with an elderly relative who is going further and further down the path of dementia and it’s awful to see someone close – and previously SO clever and a superb business person just – well – not really with it at ALL when we visit. They may speak with you and you cannot understand anything they say. You just have to go with it and agree and move on. Seeing holiday photos and any previous life photos from back in the day when all was well makes you realise just how important keeping well is through life as much as possible. An recent article in the press says quite a bit and I would suggest it’s worth a look – … Continue reading →

Dementure – This Condition Appears To Be Getting Worse

Healthy Homes Posted on by

Hello – Hope You’re Enjoying The Weather!! I also hope that you are not having to be involved with anyone who is suffering with Dementure. As I understand it now, this condition is just a growing “threat” as time goes by. We were involved, recently, with an elderly relative who is going further down the path of dementure and it’s awful to see someone close just – well – not really with it at ALL. ============================ An article in the Daily Mail a while ago says quite a bit and I would suggest it’s worth a look. Living a healthy lifestyle by keeping fit, eating your five-a-day and laying off the alcohol reduces the risk of dementia, new research suggests Risk of dementia is 32 per cent lower in people who lead a healthy lifestyle  Researchers identified 1,769 dementia cases over a period of eight years  People who smoke, don’t eat fruit and veg are more at risk to being diagnosed By Jack Elsom For Mailonline and Press Association Over the years we have realised that a healthy diet with home cooked food  and using the plant derived minerals and other items like curcumin, krill and vitamin C and a … Continue reading →

How many people do YOU know with this condition?

Healthy Homes Posted on by

A holistic approach to Alzheimer’s Good day to you So – How many people DO  you know with this condition? I don’t know what you may think but there would appear to be evidence that there is a huge increase of the condition called Alzheimer’s disease. I was talking with Dr Rex Johnson a while ago and I asked if he would put together some detail for a newsletter in the hope that we were able to help people prevent this awful condition. See article from Dr Mercola: Link Between Sugar and Alzheimer’s Strengthens We know quite a number of people who have family members who have been struck with this condition and when they tell us what they have to do to be able to cope – it is very saddening. I hope the following may help you, and people that you know, to prevent this happening. Rex has always said that prevention of illness is a LOT cheaper than actually going down with a serious condition if at ALL possible. Dr Rex Johnson: It seems that conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and cognitive decline have all been lumped under the same heading although they are different. They … Continue reading →

Story at-a-glance Exposure to microwave radiation from baby monitors, cellphones, cordless phones, Wi-Fi routers, smart meters and other wireless devices causes serious mitochondrial dysfunction due to free radical damage Excessive free radicals triggered by microwave exposure from wireless technologies have been linked to anxiety, Alzheimer’s disease, autism, cardiac arrhythmias, depression and infertility The negative effects of EMFs are particularly harmful to pregnant women, putting their child at risk for ADHD and autism, as well as behavioral, emotional and social issues In addition to using wired connections for your phone and computer, strategies that may help reduce the harmful effects of EMFs include optimizing your magnesium level and eating Nrf2-boosting foods   By Dr. Mercola The negative effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) continue to ignite conversations and controversy worldwide. The most dangerous pollution affecting you is the invisible sea of EMFs your body swims in daily. You are exposed to EMFs all day long, not only in public but inside your home, too. Most of the radiation emits from cellphones, cell towers, computers, smart meters and Wi-Fi, to name just a few of the culprits. While it’s nearly impossible to avoid EMF exposure completely, there are practical ways to limit it. … Continue reading →

October 19th 2017: Good day to you – it’s “just a li’l damp’ here today! I don’t know what you may think but there would appear to be evidence that there is a huge increase of the condition called Alzheimer’s disease. I was talking with Dr Rex Johnson a while ago and I asked if he would put together some detail for a newsletter in the hope that we were able to help people prevent this awful condition. We know quite a number of people who have family members who have been struck with this condition and when they tell us what they have to do to be able to cope – it is very saddening – and let’s face it – most of us just think “It’ll never happen to me….”.
