FYI-HEALTH TALK

I read and study the scriptures daily. My favorite bible is ‘The Founders’ Bible’. This morning as I was reading and studying, I was prompted to relay this message to you.

Reference Luke 4 which describes the duty of Jesus Christ in the world during His time on earth – and which, I feel applies to us today. This chapter prompted John Quincy  Adams – a former president’s way of life. What it all entailed I am paraphrasing – in short – putting into a nutshell.

• DUTY IS OURS, RESULTS ARE GOD’S!           

As John Q. Adams would say and did (paraphrased) – ‘ALWAYS DO WHATEVER IS RIGHT, REGARDLESS OF THE OUTCOME. WORK PASSIONATELY ON YOUR LIFE MISSION, AND IT WILL BE UP TO GOD AS TO WHETHER OR NOT ANY OF YOUR EFFORTS SUCCEED. John Q. Adams did this as a political leader in the United States of America for many, many years. I feel it serves as a LIFE-GIVING EXAMPLE FOR ALL OF US TO FOLLOW.

Think about this. Put it into your heart and then put it into action. My love to all of my readers and followers. GOD WILL BLESS  YOU, AND, GOD WILL BLESS THE WORLD!

A new segment of Quick Tips…

Health issues are high on the minds of most people today. To take each issue and talk on it can be mind boggling. In this segment I have taken tips regarding health problems, broken them down into short explanations, or even as long as one sentence, to provide quick information regarding the latest health updates. I will name the source so each of you, if it pertains to you, or you are just interested, can do your own research for extended knowledge.

2023 INFO

• MELATONIN – Melatonin is basically advertised as being a source for sleep deprivation. However, Melatonin has many uses. According to Mike Adams (biochemist) and Dr. Stella M.D., Melatonin blocks the spike protein which is a detrimental ingredient to the body when vaxed.

Melatonin in conjunction with the mitochondria has cancer development protective qualities as well. (Ari Whitten M.S.)

• BLACK CUMMIN SEED OIL – swish as small amount of the oil in the mouth to keep plaque from forming on the teeth. (Ian Clark – Holistic Dental Info)
• CROHN’S DISEASE – starts in the Gut. The Gut is the basic part of the body that controls many of the diseases folks suffer from today. A healthy gut leads to a healthy immune system.
• SPLEEN – So many times you will hear an allopathic/main steam physician say the ‘spleen’ is not an important part of the body…so don’t worry when they remove it.  What they don’t tell you is that the SPLEEN is the ‘major cleaning organ for the blood. The body has to get rid of cellular waste in blood, which is acidic. The ‘spleen’ is the organ that does this.  As well the PITUITARY GLAND controls every organ in the body. (Dr. Robert Morse N.D.)
• BUCKWHEAT – Many of you may think that ‘buckwheat’ is a wheat product. It isn’t. It is “a flowering plant in the knotweed family Polygonaceae cultivated for its grain-like seeds and as a cover crop.” (Wikipedia) Buckwheat is a good substitute for use in cooking. For instance, you can use ‘buckwheat flour’ in place of wheat flour if you are allergic to gluten.  Usually a buckwheat recipe will call for the mixture of both, but I found I can substitute coconut or rice flour in place of the wheat flour to be used with the buckwheat flour. When shopping look for Himalayan Buckwheat Seeds/flour.
• DNA – You may say ugh to this one. URINE, your urine is the only thing that contains original DNA. The latest thing with ‘urine’ is the suggestion of drinking it to rid your body of the ‘spike protein’ nano bodies. That is a no-no in my book as your urine contains toxins to other diseases that might be in the body that you need to get rid of. Instead, do a ‘water only’ water fast to help the body create new healing DNA stem cells and helps repair the DNA destroyed by the COVID vaccine.
• TOXINS – last, for this segment of tips, but not least. Toxins, toxins, toxins. They are big in the news – especially since the train derailment in East Palestine Ohio. Most of the cars were filled with various chemicals used for the manufacture of a variability of products. The one most significantly mentioned was polyvinyl ethaline chloride used to make plastics. The toxin release from this was said to be Dioxin which when they set it on fire spewed deadly fumes into the air and water. Dioxin is detrimental to the Liver. To counteract the Dioxin in the liver it is imperative to keep the Liver DETOXED. Dioxin is also a chemical that is said to cause cancer. You can counteract this by eating Broccoli Sprouts.
• Did you know that magnesium deficiency is the root cause of depression?
• Everyone is concerned about aging.  But did you know that getting rid of the heavy metals and all of the old garbage in the body will minimize aging and you will live longer – not age biologically.
• Did you know that the loss of zinc and copper in the body causes the loss of taste and smell. I didn’t know that nicotine is Vitamin B3 (Niacin) and that by taking Vitamin B3 you can recover from the loss of taste and smell. Although nicotine, which is deadly to the body, is prevalent in the tobacco plant, it is used mostly in cigarette and tobacco products. However, the vegetables and beverages that we usually eat or drink every day contain safe amounts of nicotine. It is found  in tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, green and black teas, peppers, Capsicums and cauliflower.  
• I have mentioned the spike protein and how it gets in the body. You need to know that the spike protein from the Vax affects everything in the body starting with the weakest organ in the body.
• GOOD NEWS: A warm BATH activates the immune system. SLEEP helps get rid of toxins while it cleans up trash in the system. It also rebuilds muscles, and is crucial to good health.

You are actually detoxing daily as you eat the right foods and take supplements as needed. The body needs water – which is the only true hydrator. Other drinks, and coffee and tea that are made with water, do not hydrate the body as the additives in those drinks take away the water’s ability to hydrate.

If you are not already aware, Supplements good to take to ward off the ill affects of all the man-made virus’ we are exposed to today, include – in addition to PURE WATER – magnesium, Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, Zinc, minerals, amino acids, probiotics, and Pure Herbal Tinctures.

RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. KNOW your body. If you don’t already it is time to become acquainted. What is good for all may not be good for you and vice versa. And, did you know that Vitamin D is a hormone even though we call it a vitamin?

Exercise is good – SWEATING is important to rid the body of toxins. If you are suffering from skin conditions – they come from poor gut health.

This is just the beginning of the many current health tips I have access to. I hope the above tips, if they pertain to you, gives you an idea of what to research for you, your health, your immune system, etc. You need to know your body and how it reacts to what you put in it or anticipate putting into it before you can begin to rebuild, restore, and/or re-heal it.

Remember, when it comes to your health ‘YOU CAN’T HEAL WHAT YOU DON’T ACKNOWLEDGE’.

The above is not a diagnosis for anyone or a cure.  It is just informational.

MAY GOD BLESS THE WORLD AND GOD BLESS YOU!!!

Doing research can be very tedious. As I read articles, watch podcasts and videos, the information becomes overwhelming. To bypass doing blogs on each new tidbit of information, it is easier to share it in small increments.

Some of the following information may be repetitive. Repetition is not bad…as in many instances it serves as a reminder for things we know but might not remember.

• INFLAMMATION: Did you know your body actually needs inflammation to stay healthy? If you have ever twisted your ankle, cut your finger or caught a cold or flu, inflammation is what helps your body fight off hostile microbes and repair damaged tissue. When functioning properly, the inflammatory process is vital for healing injury or illness. Inflammation only becomes a problem when it keeps surging through your body after your hurt has healed.

  Inflammation not only attacks healthy joints and tissue, it attacks your cells, your brain, your immune system and even your DNA.  It can lead to illnesses like rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative disease and cancer. (Health Means)

• TEETH: In a recently read article in a newsletter, it was mentioned that hydrogen peroxide can be used as a teeth whitener as well as have many other beneficial uses.  It is known fact that many of the professional whitening gels used by dentists and sold online contain hydrogen peroxide as a main ingredient. These gels can be expensive.

  It was suggested that if you want an easier, natural, and more cost effective teeth whitening recipe that you can make at home for pennies, just combine hydrogen peroxide with BAKING SODA!

  Here is how – Combine 2 tbsp. hydrogen peroxide with 1 tbsp. baking soda into a small bowl and stir it into a paste.  Dip your toothbrush into the paste and brush your teeth with it for a few minutes.  This helps remove stains better than most toothpastes, and can help whiten your teeth too.  However, it is advised to only use this peroxide and baking soda mixture once or twice a month as using it too often could cause enamel issues or sensitivity.

• PAIN KILLERS: If you have a toothache, backache, or any other type of pain, your first impulse may be to reach for a pain medication. Many people rely on medications – prescription and over-the-counter, but they can come with a risk of side effects, drug interactions, and many times misuse.  Many herbs and spices have a long history of being used to relieve inflammation and pain. (click on the link for more info)
  Natural pain relievers fall under a category of treatment known as alternative medicine, which also includes acupuncture, yoga, reiki, and other practices. Check out the links for detailed information.

  A partial list of pain relievers includes: Boswellia also known as frankincense, Turmeric, Cloves, heat and ice, essential oils – and blends.

  NOTE: The natural pain relievers described above may only be effective for specific causes of pain and may not work for everyone.

• HEALING FOODS: the following is a short list of foods that are healing to the body in various ways:
  BROCCOLI:   often referred to as ‘the tree of life’ provides cell-protective compounds and have anti-cancer effects as discovered by Johns Hopkins.  Many folks don’t like the taste of broccoli, so they avoid eating it. Try the broccoli sprouts, they in my opinion, are less potent taste-wise.
  GARLIC:  has been well known for centuries as an fighter of bacteria. Science shows that garlic is rich in allicin which supports and promotes healthy immune cell function. It also promotes protective macrophages, maintains cellular detoxification and modulates cytokine production.
  PLUMS:  Dried (according to the Life Extension magazine) have the potential ‘for preventing bone loss in postmenopausal women, with the potential for long-lasting bone-protective effects.’ As well, a cell study has shown that a plum flavonoid inhibits the early stage of the hepatitis C virus lifecycle. Animal studies suggest memory boost and learning capabilities from the use of plum extracts.

There is so much valuable information out there today in the natural health community on how foods can promote a healthy immune system, and one’s overall health in general. It is also being suggested by health experts that this may be the only way back from the adverse affects of the majority of prescription meds, over-the counter meds, and the many vaccines given to children as well as adults over their lifetime.

Again – DO THE RESEARCH! Everyone’s health needs are different. There is no ‘what is good for one is good for all.’

GOD BLESS!!!!

1. Soaring Deaths From Pain-Relieving Drugs (William Faloon – Life Extension). The pain relieving drugs mentioned in his article are non-prescription pain medications, considered over-the-counter drugs. You may have already heard about them, but people continue to use them.

• Acetaminophen – cause of acute liver failure in the United States. The regular use of this drug is associated with the increased risk of kidney damage, kidney cancer and dementia as well. This is not mentioned as a warning on the label.
• Ibuprofen – regular use of this one can inflict stomach and kidney issues.
• Among the prescription drugs was OxyContin – approved for routine pain relief in 1995. It was promoted as a time-released drug. The widespread prescribing of opioid drugs began around 1999.

“Poisoning inflicted by non-opioid” and I add prescription pain drugs, “continue to disable and kill.”

The over-the-counter drugs were meant to taken moderately for acute pain. However, many people become addicted, overdose, and eventually experience serious health side affects or death.

There are non-lethal methods to treat pain naturally. Do your research, they include plant extracts such as sesamin, Boswellia, Black sesame oil, and Turmeric.

2. Another reason to exercise. You have probably heard it mentioned that if you go on long plane flights you need to get up and walk around, because sitting for long periods of time are not good for you. That is being verified according to studies that evaluated sedentary behaviors. Most people today spend more than half their waking hours sitting, at work, commuting, or at home – such as me right now working on this computer for more hours than I care to. The studies showed that any extended period of time sitting increases the risk of deep vein thrombosis – dangerous clots that commonly develop in the legs, that can break loose and travel to the lungs or the heart. It happened to a friend of mine. One day he was here and the next he was gone. He had been told by the doctor, only a weeks before, that they needed to watch the clots in his legs. Apparently there is no forewarning of when they might break off, and when they do, they travel fast through the body system. As with many diseases today, folks are turning to natural means of healing. It is suggested that “a combination of the enzyme nattokinase and French maritime pine bark extract provides a safe, natural approach to combating leg swelling and clotting.”

Do your research . Scientific Clinical trials have proven the protective circulatory benefits of these plant compounds.

3. With the ‘Jab’ causing serious side effects to include death, in and of those folks who chose to take it, the talk, now, in the medical world both allopathically and naturally is ‘how to counteract it’s debilitating affects.’ Too many people are losing family members – to include children, friends, work associates etc. You see sports figures, news broadcasters, etc. falling over dead right before your eyes. Something has to be done.

Causes of death include cardiovascular disease, cancer, and accelerated already health issues such as diabetes, COPD,  etc. Non-death issues include brain damage, mental decline, lung weakness, migraine headaches, gut issues, etc.

Short, but sweet. The above information is important because of the situation the world is in today. Take it to heart and adapt it according to the lifestyle in which you live. Do your own research. The backup is out there . 

GOD BLESS!!

Wishing all my readers a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR! And through GOD and His Son Jesus Christ, may everyone be BLESSED!

  …to us a son is given.” Isaiah 9:6-7

As I did research about Christmas and how it came into being, I found many different versions of its creation from before Christ to now. You may find this intriguing as you read on.

“Christmas began as a celebration of the nativity story of Jesus in Rome in 354. It had been celebrated even earlier by Christians in the East, but they incorporated it into their Epiphany celebration on Jan. 6, which focused more on Jesus’ baptism. The celebration of Christmas in Rome replaced the pagan solar festivals that occurred on Dec. 25.” ( World View)

The story continued – saying the name “Christmas” comes from the Old English contraction for “Christ’s Mass,” which was first used in 1038.  It was embraced in the Middle Ages by the Catholic Church. Further, Christmas came about through many traditions of which some were unrelated to the birth of Christ. The tradition of gift giving was inspired by Father Christmas – later to become Santa Claus. This mythological figure’s origin is rooted in both religion and pagan folklore.  In the 19th century, there was a temporary shift away from celebrating Christmas. “In early America, there was little celebration of Christmas. The Puritans that settled New England did not approve and even banned it in Boston. Despite all this, Christmas was revived and revamped by writers such as Charles Dickens and Washington Irving. These writers emphasized elements of Christmas such as warm traditions, family, compassion and generosity.” (World View)

With media sources such as radio, newspapers, books, and TV we have learned through the years, that Christmas is important today as a religious holiday for Christians, because ‘it is celebrated world wide as a secular holiday and it accounts for significant economic activity. This in my opinion boots the ‘Jesus is the reason for the season’ right out the window. Yet Christmas is observed by billions of people around the world – some of who celebrate it for Jesus and some just for the gift giving – which in my observation has turned into a ‘who gave it to me and how much did it cost them’ situation.

I would like to see Christmas return to “Jesus is the reason for the season”

The following are quotes that I found to be inspiring.

Best of all, Christmas means a spirit of love, a time when the love of God and the love of our fellow men should prevail over all hatred and bitterness, a time when our thoughts and deeds and the spirit of our lives manifest the presence of God. George F. McDougall

Christmas is not in tinsel and lights and outward show. The secret lies in an inner glow. It’s lighting a fire inside the heart. Good will and joy a vital part. It’s higher thought and a greater plan. It’s glorious dream in the soul of man. Wilfred A. Peterson, The Art of Living

“The giving of gifts is not something man invented. God started the giving spree when He gave a gift beyond words, the unspeakable gift of His Son.”
Robert Flatt 

“Who can add to Christmas? The perfect motive is that God so loved the world. The perfect gift is that He gave His only Son. The only requirement is to believe in Him. The reward of faith is that you shall have everlasting life.”
Corrie Ten Boom

“The story of Christmas is the story of God’s relentless love for us.” Max Lucado

Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer is the gift that keeps on giving. Anon

As a young girl I was always interested in the Native American Indian Tribes. Living in the state of Utah at the time, I knew there were a few tribes in Utah and the surrounding states, to include Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. The 2 main tribes that most people were aware of and/or knowledgeable of were the Hopi and Navajo Tribes. They reside in an area called the ‘4 corners’. This is where the corners of the four states all come together.

In the news lately there has been a lot of hullabaloo (fuss) regarding the state of Arizona and the elections. A question in the minds of many might be ‘why’?

From my small amount of political research – so far, it has been pointed out that the land in Arizona is rich in mineral rights etc. and the Indian Tribes have ownership of much of the land. Apparently the present governing party wants that land which, if they could get it, would put them in a position to extricate a whole nation of Gods chosen people. This, of course would fall in line with the desire of the present governing leaders to continue their quest to depopulate the world.

In my research, I came across a website that I thought was very interesting and informative regarding the HOPI INDIAN traditions, their beliefs and their ongoing fight with the governing bodies to keep their land.

I am sharing that link for those of my readers who might be interested in a small piece of the history of a people who lived in the past and are living, as well, in the present, and how it is linked with the present history in the making.

I do not recall this history being in any of the history books in my generation. Will it be in the history books of the future?

  Remember – GOD IS IN CHARGE!

I am out of town with limited internet service. I hope this goes through…so on a lighter note here goes.

‘Twas the night of Thanksgiving and I just couldn’t sleep
I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep
The leftovers beckoned, the dark meat and white
But I fought the temptation with all of my might.
Tossing and turning with anticipation
The thought of a snack became infatuation.
So I raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
And gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.
I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.
I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
‘Till all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.
I crashed through the ceiling, floating up to the sky
With a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.
But I managed to yell, as I soared through the trees
“Happy eating to all, pass the cranberries, please.”
May your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey be plump,
May your potatoes ‘n’ gravy have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious, may your pies take the prize.
May your Thanksgiving Dinner Stay Off of Your Thighs!
[Anonymous]

With thanks to a dear friend with a wonderful sense of humor.

WISHING EVERYONE A GREAT AND BLESSED DAY!!!!

other skin conditions.

What causes skin conditions to include, ECZEMA, dry skin, psoriasis, scleroderma, pimples, rashes, dermatitis and skin cancer – the most toxic and parasitically involved of all the skin conditions?

Your skin is the largest vital organ you have. Its job is to control body temperature, protect and eliminate. It is sometimes referred to as your “third kidney.” Are you aware that your skin is suppose to eliminate each day as much as your lungs, kidneys and bowels do in the form of mucus, toxins, and gases.  The skin eliminates through sweat.

When the skin gets congested and/or inflamed it is usually the by-product of the foods you eat, thereby causing most of the above mentioned skin conditions or problems experienced by many in todays world. When asked what can be done to eliminate any of these problems, my standard answer has to be CHANGE YOUR DIET. You are what you eat. DETOX, DETOX, DETOX.

I mentioned ‘parasitical’. What does that mean?  Parasites are scavengers and are found where there is toxicity and dead or dying cells, in the layers of the skin and on the top of the skin. Most allopathic doctors will treat skin conditions with  cortisone or steroids in the form of medication and or ointments and lotions etc. These only drive the parasites deeper into the tissue which blocks the proper elimination from the system.

Toxins/acids backed up in the eliminative organs of the body and the skin can be the cause of most common skin problems. Organs involved other than the skin include the liver, lymphatic system, kidneys and bowels and thyroid. Detoxification is a must.

HOW TO DETOX?

There is no quick fix detox sold in a box or a bottle in the store or on Amazon. It took time to cause the problem and it is going to take time to fix the problem. You must fix the chemical balance in the body which should be 80% alkaline and 20% acidic. The following program, adhered to, will get you back on the highway to health.

DIET – the foods which should be avoided include dairy products and sugar for starters. They cause heavy congestion within the tissues of the body. You also need to avoid coffee – as caffeine is highly acidic. Alcohol, smoking, over-the-counter drugs, and prescription drugs (as are able) are all acidic.

DETOX PLAN – to Alkalize the body (2-3 weeks) 

1. FAST – Lemon Juice Fast. Do for 1-2 days. DO NOT EAT ANY OTHER FOODS.
2. BASIC MENU FOR 2-3 WEEKS: Do 7 days a week.
   * BREAKFAST: Any combination of fruits you like – or Melons. However, if you choose melons do not mix with any other fruit.
   *SNACK: Any dried or fresh fruit, or freshly juiced vegetable or fruit juice.
   *LUNCH: Any fresh fruit you like. Buy what is in season in your area. Avoid (for now) pineapple and cranberry – because of their tendency to be acidic.
   *SNACK: Any dried or fresh fruit, or freshly juiced vegetable or fruit juice. Or Smoothie made with fresh vegetables and/or fruits.
   *DINNER: Large raw vegetable salad. Do not use iceberg lettuce as it constipates. You can put anything in it you like. Use Balsamic Vinegar dressing or just sprinkle it with fresh lemon juice and light extra virgin olive oil. OR you can have a small dish of Vegetable Soup (no tomatoes because of acidity). MAKE IT YOURSELF. 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

LEMON JUICE – FOR FAST
2 tbsp. Lemon or Lime juice (fresh squeezed)
1/2 to 3/4 tbsp. Real Maple syrup or honey
One 8-10 oz.  glass of cold or warm water
(Optional – a pinch of Cayenne Pepper)

Combine the ingredients. Do not use canned, bottled or frozen lemon or lime juice. The Cayenne Pepper adds an additional increase of vitamin C and B-Complex, as well as an additional lift. You might want to make this a quart or a gallon at a time because you will be drinking it all day. You may drink as much as you want and as often as you want. Remember to only drink this and eat no other foods or drinks. It is an easy 1-2 day fast. 

1. Drink 1-8 oz. glass of water before you eat and after you eat, but not as you eat. You can drink water anytime during the day, just not at the same time as you eat – because it dilutes the natural digestive juices which you don’t want to do.
2. DO NOT EAT ANY MEAT, DAIRY, PASTA OR BREAD PRODUCTS!
3. DISCONTINUE THE USE OF COFFEE, TEA, ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, AND OVER THE COUNTER MEDICATIONS, IF THEY APPLY. You can keep taking any prescription medications as needed until you don’t need them any more per your doctor’s okay.
4. You may experience weakness – so GET PLENTY OF REST. The detoxification has begun.
5. Exercise only mildly or not at all during the DETOX PERIOD. Walking is okay. Let your body dictate what you can and cannot do.

SUMMARY –
For Eczema and most adverse skin conditions – YOU NEED TO ELIMINATE, SWEAT. Perspiration increases the elimination of toxins. Lotions block the pores making the skin dry. The health of your skin is an internal issue not an external one. If you are going to feed the skin externally use pure raw grape seed oil or olive oil 

Skin problems can also be a Thyroid issue. The Thyroid and Liver are related to the skin. When you have a weak Thyroid it becomes more difficult to sweat, inhibiting proper elimination through the skin even more.  A breakdown of the skins normal function will result in Eczema, skin rashes, dry skin, psoriasis, etc.

The raw food diet above is highly cleansing and strengthening to the Liver and Skin. Raw fruits and vegetables ALKALIZE AND ALSO  ENHANCE the function of your Thyroid gland and increase body heat and elimination through your skin by sweating. 

HERBAL FORMULAS needed for Detoxing and Continued Strengthening include: LYMPHATIC SYSTEM; LIVER/SKIN; GI BROOM; THYROID SUPPORT; BLOOD CIRCULATION and PARASITE M CAPSULES. These formulas include all the natural herbs needed to restore and maintain healthy skin. 

NOTE: If you wish to purchase – these Dr. Morse’s formulas can be bought at the following link. For usage, follow the directions on the bottle.

I hope this blog has been helpful for you who suffer from the various skin ailments mentioned. Remember THE FOOD CHOICES YOU MAKE AFFECT EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE!

GOD BLESS!

Why Gray Hair? 

This is a question I was asked as a hair dresser, by most of my clients. It is common to hear  “everyone gets gray hair as they age.”  However, what about those people who experience premature gray hair; as did a friend of mine who managed a Beauty College. He told me that his hair turned gray when he was 16 years old.

What is Hair?
Hair – medically speaking “is a keratinized threadlike outgrowth which forms the fur of animals , or which grows on the human body.”

Just as the rings in a tree trunk hold information about past decades in the lifespan of a tree, our hair contains/holds information of our life style, our genetics, our health habits, and etc.

• The most common cause of gray hair is aging. 
• Genetics generally determines the timeline for the graying of hair, how it looks, how it behaves, whether it is curly or straight, thin or thick, etc.
• Nutrient Deficiency can as well be the cause of hair graying, as it is the cause of many common health problems or issues.
• There is not a lot of fully backed research on how or why smoking might be a direct cause of graying hair.
• Autoimmune disease is another cause of hair turning gray – as the diseases that cause poor health attack the pigment cells affecting the Melanin which controls the color of not only hair, but skin. Hypothyroidism is one of the autoimmune diseases that affect the change in hair color.

This is a small list, without going into a lot of detail.

CAN THE HAIR GOING GRAY BE SLOWED DOWN? AS WELL, CAN IT BE REVERSED?

1. You can’t stop aging but you can slow down the look of aging whether it is your body, the wrinkles on your face or the turning of your hair gray. EAT THE RIGHT FOODS. Feed your hair the nutrients it needs. This does work as I have seen the results in clients. It requires a change in one’s eating habits with the addition of vitamin and herbal supplements. The graying did slow down – and in a couple of cases the hair color reversed from the gray back to the natural hair color.
2. New scientific findings report that Radiation or exposure to radiation in your home via microwave ovens, computers, cell phones or a workplace where you may be exposed to any type of radiation may, as well  accelerate hair graying. The best thing would be to not use microwave ovens, or computers, cell phones etc., but that is not feasible with todays lifestyles. You may want to look into all the new gadgets on the market that claim to reduce radiation exposure and in some cases get rid of it completely.
3. Stop Smoking. While science is in the process of proving that smoking can increase your risk of going gray early, you can reverse some of the damage by NOT SMOKING.
4. Hypothyroidism is a hormonal problem and is in the autoimmune disease category. There is a range of remedies for treating hypothyroidism which may help to reduce hair color change. Discuss this with your doctor and do your own research for this, and other autoimmune diseases.
5. The list goes on and on, however, as a last resort and the REMEDY most people use is COLOR – permanent, which lasts for about a month and then needs retouching at the roots; or semi-permanent which washes out with each hair washing. If coloring is your choice, keep in mind that gray hair is not as porous and the color may or may not take as you expect it to. Also, any prescription medications one is taking may or may not interfere with how well the color takes on the gray hair.

This information is just a foot in the door to answering the question of WHY GRAY HAIR.

I reiterate – DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH to learn more on this subject. Everyone’s body is chemically different. Therefore the experience of graying hair will not be the same for everyone. This is not a ‘one size fits all’ situation.
