#Influenza Talk: Here are references regarding oscillococcinum for flu treatment. It was found to help in symptoms for 6-7 hours, hence repeating dosing before this time is to be considered. No side effects or drug interactions have been found. In clinical documents from countries such as India where #homeopathy is used side by side with medicine and supported by their government, similar formulas are used for prevention and one dose is used monthly. The effect of this is ve...ry difficult to prove in scientific research but the product is also found to be completely safe for all ages. check out my reference doc with research links: https://docs.google.com//1gEUjU99fEbwt_8pFkgRKOipArd/edit

#Growing #Ginger from organic store roots is easy ! Ginger supports the #immune system and is supportive of digestion. Early stages of cold and flu are most often containing fresh ginger in Chinese medicine for "cold conditions". Fresh ginger may support #allergy relief when their are chills and a runny nose and sneezing as the main symptoms. I love ginger blended in to a paste on top of meat, in chicken soup and stir fry.... Ginger puree with some licorice tea is a option for flu season support and try adding swerve sweetener or (non sugar fed) honey to your drink.

Gluten free, #nutfree flour: #TigernutFlour Tiger nuts, also known as chufa, yellow nutsedge or earth almonds, are not actually nuts, but rather edible tubers. Mostly used as flour or the tuber is blended into milk. Tiger nut has a sweet nutty flavor similar to coconut and is #glutenFree. ... 1. Rich in Nutrients Tiger nuts are also a rich source of antioxidants, which are beneficial compounds that may protect your body against aging and diseases like cancer and heart disease Tip: sprouting tiger nuts prior to eating them increases their antioxidant levels. May Reduce Blood Sugar Levels: Tiger nuts may help keep your blood sugar levels in check. Animal studies show that tiger nut extract may help reduce #BloodSugar levels. This may, in large part, be due to the high fiber content of the tubers which may slow down the absorption of sugar in the gut. Tiger nuts are also rich in the amino acid arginine, which may increase #insulin production and sensitivity, both of which are important for blood sugar control.

How to eat it: Passion fruit is filled with a gelatinous pulp that’s full of seeds. The seeds are edible, but tart. Scoop out the passion fruit pulp with a spoon and place it in a bowl. You can also enjoy passion fruit pulp straight from the shell. Try sprinkling a little of your favorite sweetener onto the pulp to cut the tartness. Some people also add cream (I suggest coconut cream) Dr. Elisabeth Bastos BSc, ND, R.Acup #Bastos Natural Family Center of Canada

Why is your #metabolism so important? The word metabolism is derived from the Greek language, meaning change or transformation. For our purposes of body function, metabolism is the amount of energy your body burns/uses to maintain vital bodily function. Your goal is to make sure you are not having your body waste it’s current energy on needless tasks such as: breaking down harmful indigestible foods, dealing with negative people, allowing unproductive worry, or exercising... ineffectively and for too long. Ramping it up - at every moment, be it that you are sleeping, at the mall shopping or in the gym exercising, your body is constantly burning calories/energy. It needs fuel just as much as your car needs fuel to power an engine or itself. Your metabolism is the regulator and manager of your body’s fuel. Food and your body chemistry- eating right for your specific body chemistry is an important way to ensure that your food will be metabolized more efficiently and that you won’t feel drained after your meal from toxic build up and fermentation. #PuslinchNaturopath #PuslinchAcupuncturist
