We all know that there are vitamins, mineral and so on in liquid and pill form for all manner of health problems, improvement and general you might need it–but isn’t there an easier, more natural way to do all this than consume items that we hope has the stuff in them that they advertise.

 

TRY SEA VEGETABLES:  Popular with many cultures since ancient times,  these contain minerals way beyond their land-loving cousins, as well as antioxidants.  Studies show they have cholesterol lowering properties and abilities to modify menstrual cycles and current studies are looking at them as a preventative of some estrogen-related cancers (University of California).   And if that isn’t enough for you they contain large amounts of Vitamins B, C, E and K as well as iodine, and calcium.

Some sea veggies:

Chlorella (an algae)

Dulse

Kelp

Nori (aka laver)

Spirulina (an algae)

Wakame

 

 

MAKE SURE YOUR KID’S DIETS HAS ENOUGH EPA-DHA

Considered critical in infant development with influences on a healthy skin and found in tests to be lacking in ADHD children. Delicious Living/May 2014).  But testing has also questioned the usefulness of supplements.  So diet seems at this point the best direction.

Foods high in EPA-DHA (in order of content highest to lowest):

Flaxseed

Walnuts

Sardines

Salmon

Beef

Soybeans

Tofu

Shrimp

Brussels Sprouts

Cauliflower

 

 

HAVE A HISTORY OF CARDIAC ISSUES (or want to avoid same)OR STROKE

You need to eat lots of fruits, vegetable, nuts and non-fat protein (i.e. fish), while consuming minimal sugar and alcohol. (from a study in CIRCULATION)  and include exercise in your daily routine.

Other Suggestions:

Cook with Olive Oil

Drink Green tea 

Eat Dark Chocolate with a high cocoa content (a square or 2 day  –THE HEALTHY EDGE)

 

CLEAR CONGESTION BY AVOIDING PROBLEM FOODS

Though we often think of air borne sources for our nose problems it could be dietary.  Food irritants can cause build up (Emily . Kane, ND, LAc).   in the throat.

Foods that often cause a problem:

Dairy products

Grains

Corn

Chicken

Soy

 

FOR THE TUMMY

Try a ripe banana for an inflamed stomach (cider vinegar or lemon juice in hot water helps too)

Water;  Don’t drink it with a meal–dilutes gastric acid and blocks digestion and can block absorption.   (try it 10 min before or wait till 3 hrs. after)    A GUIDE TO NATURAL HOME REMEDIES — Liz Bestic

 

PROTECTING THE MAIN

Vitamin C in the diet with citrus fruits and juices

Vitamin E:  found in oils like sunflower and peanut or you might try a few servings a day of nuts or wheat germ.

Niacin–meats, grains, fish (especially tuna), turkey white meat and legumes (i.e. lentils) that stops damage from free radicals.

Fava–you know you eat them with brains and a good Chianti–Hannibal Lector style— (Broad Beans) are a favorite of Parkinson patients and appear to have some compounds in medicine used to treat the condition.

 

and finally like I promised in the title

EAT TO IMPROVE FERTILITY (YES you still need all the sweaty, messy stuff too thank goodness).

Victoria Maizes, MD (BE FRUITFUL: THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO MAXIMIZING FERTILITY AND GIVING BIRTH TO A HEALTHY CHILD)  recommends the Mediterranean Diet (which also reduces the risk of heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer’s)  http://victoriamaizesmd.com/breast-cancer/diet/   which is abundant in unrefined grains legumes, fish, vegetables and fruit and of course Olive Oil.  And keep your weight within recommended guideline numbers.

Other inclusions:

Use whole fat dairy products

2-3 meals a week of wild salmon, sardines, herring or black cod

Avoid

Soda (all kinds including non-caffinated and diet)

Processed food
