How To Release The Attachment Of Old Relationships

The human body is innately intelligent. It can detect, correct and adjust to stimuli in the animal kingdom.  The human body and brain are also meticulously connected, which allows the various areas of the body to signal when something, no matter how big or small, is awry.

Many symptoms are often indicative of a root problem. Sometimes, the root problem is something insignificant. At other times not so. However, as human beings, we possess the capacity to evaluate signals that our brain and body have become tuned to.

Here are ten health warning signs your body may be trying to send you:

Do you see these signs in your body? These symptoms can explain so much!

1. Constipation: You’re not getting adequate fiber

Constipation is one predominant, obvious symptom of low fiber intake.  According to Dr. Mark Hyman, “Our hunter-gatherer ancestors ate up to 100 grams of fiber a day and had an average stool weight of 2 pounds.” Now, fast-forward to today, where the average American eats less than 8 grams of fiber…quite a significant difference. Difficulty in passing or hardness in stool texture can also signify low fiber intake.

Other signs of inadequate fiber intake: include frequent hunger, digestive problems, unhealthy skin, inflammation, low energy, and lethargy.

2. Gas and bloating: You’re eating food that you cannot tolerate

Similar to how we react when we see intolerable behavior – with disdain, disgust, etc. – our bodies act similarly when eating unbearable food.  Some people can’t eat certain foods without an unwelcome reaction.

Infrequent gas and bloating are normal byproducts of digestion. However, when we are constantly fighting gas and bloating, it usually means we’re eating a particular food that our body does not agree with.

Other signs of food intolerance: Sinus congestion, eczema (dry skin), brain fog

3. Cracking at corners of the mouth: You’re deficient in B-vitamins

Various studies reveal that when cracks or sores appear at the mouth’s corner, it could signify vitamin B deficiency. Dr. Hass, a prominent physician in California, says: “Deficiencies of one or more B vitamins may occur fairly easily, especially with diets that include substantial amounts of refined and processed food, sugar or alcohol.”

Other signs of vitamin B deficiency: fatigue, skin problems, dark circles under the eyes, anemia

4. Sudden fatigue: You’re drinking too much caffeine

Caffeine is an effective energy boost in the very short term.  It is necessary to seek natural solutions for sustained energy, such as other sleep and relaxation and good dietary habits. This is not to say that a cup of Joe in the morning isn’t okay. It is. However, caffeine is only good (and practical) in moderation. Too much caffeine over the long term is counterproductive, health-wise.

Other signs of caffeine abuse: agitation, irregular heartbeat, jitters, heartburn, frequent urination

5. Frequent colds: Your gut lacks good bacteria

Strange as it sounds, the immune system inextricably links to the gut. More specifically, our gut is the dwelling place for many good bacteria. This bacterium aids the immune system by providing an additional defense mechanism against illness.

Other signals of gut imbalance: gas, bloating, constipation, urinary tract infection, yeast infection, unhealthy skin, athlete’s foot

6. Indigestion: Your stomach acid is low

Stomach acid plays a vital role in the digestion of food. At low levels, the digestive process is much less efficient. Also, food remains stationary in the stomach for more extended periods, as does the swallowed air. Frequently, this air moves up the esophagus and expels through the mouth in the form of gas or a burp.

Other signs of indigestion: gas, weakened immune system, chronic infections, cracked fingernails

7. Chapped lips: You’re dehydrated

When we’re not appropriately hydrated, our skin naturally receives less moisture. Less moisture available to the skin means dryness and flaking. Our lips, in particular, require sufficient moisture to remain healthy. When lips don’t have moisture, they become chapped.

Other signs of dehydration: craving sweet or salty foods, fatigue, inability to focus or concentrate, irritability

8. Headaches: You’re drinking too much soda

The substance aspartame is a near-universal presence in diet sodas, where diet soda derives its sweetness. Certain animal studies also revealed aspartame’s neurotoxic effects in animals, which is concerning to health professionals. In human studies, aspartame – along with some other artificial sweeteners – has been shown to produce headaches and even migraines.

Other signs of too much soda: include craving sweet or salty foods, irritability, and inability to focus

9. Itchy ears and throat: You have a candida overgrowth

Candida albicans is a fungus that resides in the gut. Under normal conditions, the presence of this fungus is nothing unordinary, but imbalances in the gut can cause this fungus to colonize and spread. When it applies, it often ends up irritating and inflaming the skin.

Other sides of candida overgrowth: fatigue, weak immune system, weight gain, yeast infections, mood swings

10. Constant coughing: post-bronchitis syndrome

After a particularly long bout with a cold, sometimes a long period of coughing follows. The symptoms of post-bronchitis syndrome mirror those of asthma but naturally reside within a few months. Medical professionals recommend seeing a physician, who may find it necessary to prescribe an inhaler or an alternate form of treatment.

Other sides of post-bronchitis syndrome: wheezing, shortness of breath, sore throat

15 Best Habits To Support Good Health

1. Healthy eating habits.

Besides eating nutritious foods, it’s important to follow healthy eating practices to support your good health. Here are some beneficial eating practices to implement in your daily life.

• Eat smaller-sized food portions-Food portions in the United States are enormous. No matter how healthy food is, when you eat a large amount of it, you add calories to your diet. Train yourself to eat less. Cut down on how much you eat at every meal. It may be difficult at first, but your stomach will adapt to the smaller portions over time.
• Don’t eliminate entire food groups-Many trendy diets eliminate entire food groups. Unless you have a food allergy to certain foods, this isn’t sound advice. When you stop eating a whole food group, you miss out on significant vitamins and minerals your body needs. The adverse effects of omitting a food group may not show up until later in life. Skipping entire food groups lead to specific health problems, including:

1. 1. Brain problems-Lack of particular vitamins is essential for good brain health.
   2. Osteoporosis-Brittle bones occur from a lack of dairy products.
   3. Heart problems-Stress occurs in your heart muscle from a lack of specific vitamins and minerals.
   4. Muscle loss-A lack of proper nutrients leads to weakness in your muscles
   5. Infertility-Improper nutrition prevents you from getting pregnant.
   6. Higher death rate-People who miss out on specific vitamins and minerals are prone to an earlier death.
   7. Eating disorders-Limiting foods can lead to eating problems, yo-yo dieting, and body image issues.

• Drink water-Avoid drinking sugary drinks like energy drinks or flavored waters that contain artificial sweeteners. Instead, drink plain water. The general rule is to consume 4 to 6 cups (1.42 l) of water every day to stay completely hydrated.

Start with small steps like eating fresh, non-processed foods instead of processed ones. Grab veggies or plain popcorn for a snack instead of chips.  Limit your red meat and sugar. Following these simple steps will help you drop the extra weight safely and slowly, so you’ll keep it off longer.

5. Vitamin D

11. Get some time outside in nature

Consider adopting a dog or cat from your local shelter. You’ll not only provide a home for a sweet animal but boost your health.

14. Regular check-ups

Getting regular health check-ups helps find potential health problems before they become a big problem. Getting early treatment may avoid complications later on. During your check-up, your doctor will write down your current health history, give you a physical exam, and order blood tests.
