Do not use toxic antibacterial soaps which have triclosan and triclocarban, two ingredients recently exposed by the U.S. FDA as being neither safe or effecti...ve infection preventers.

Did you know that stomach acid is actually good for you? . In fact, many people who think that they have high stomach acid levels, actually have low stomach acid levels. Proper stomach acid production is vital to unlocking optimal digestion. That is why testing is important. Low stomach acid or hypochlorhydria occurs when the body doesnt produce enough stomach acid to digest foods and tends to be more pronounced as you age. When the stomach cannot produce enough acid, k...ey minerals and proteins cant be absorbed into the body leading to vitamin or mineral deficiencies. Stomach acid is also responsible for killing harmful bacteria from foods and neutralizing enzymes. Hypochlorhydria can leave the body vulnerable to several health complications and diseases linked to the inability of foods to be broken down, sitting in the stomach and bacteria build up. . Optimal release of stomach acid takes place when the body is relaxed and in the parasympathetic nervous system state. . Check out our at home low stomach acid tests!

According to Dennis McKenna, Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota, humans have experimented with plants for more than 60,000 years for medicinal purposes. Scientists hypothesize that we learned a lot from how plants can affect humans by observing animals who ate them. By 2010, the global retail sale of botanical dietary supplements amounted to more than $25 billionand the World Health Organization reports that 75 to 85 percent of the world's population continues to rely on ...botanical medicines dispensed by traditional healers for primary healthcare, as they have always done.If botanical medicines are used judiciously, based on good scientific evidence and sound therapeutic practice, then they can and should have a place in modern medicine.

Some people are unsure of what the difference between whole and refined grains are. Gains are the seed portion of certain plants. The seed, or kernel is made up of three parts: 1. Bran... 2. Endosperm 3. Germ These three parts of the grain are considered a whole grain. Rolled oats and brown rice are examples of whole grains. Refined grains have been processed to remove both the GERM and BRAN, so all that is left is endosperm. Examples include white rice, white flour, grits, and cream of wheat. What is unhealthy about this process is that it removes the fiber, minerals, and vitamins. Some refined grains are enriched to add BACK some of the lost minerals and vitamins. At Revivelife we believe that nutrition is the foundation of wellness, and therefore we advocate for a well-balanced diet. Our Nutrition Experts can help patients recognize if they are nutritionally deficient, help to replenish them with foods, recipes and or high-quality supplements.
