Learn What Your Body is Telling You

Our bodies are brilliant computers.  If we listen to it closely, it will tell us what we need to keep it healthy.  However, in our fast-paced society, we often miss obvious signals.  In fact, there are many of us who notice every nuance of their car and then take care of their car better than their own bodies!

Of course there are signals that are more obvious than others. For example, one of my clients seemed to get a stomach ache a short while after she ate her morning yogurt.  Cheeses seemed to bother her as well.  After noting the correlation, she did not eat dairy and her stomach problems magically disappeared.  It was nothing short of brilliance (ahem ahem).

However, there are other not-as-obvious signs that I have noted and learned about over the years.

• For those chocoholics out there, you may not actually have a deficiency in magnesium with your body really craving that mineral.  Leg cramps can also be an indication of magnesium deficiency.
• Anyone out there have lots of hair in the drain after showering?  Perhaps the outer one third of the eyebrow is very thin or non-existent.  The neck may even have 2 lines with a little puffiness between them, or they may always have cold hand and feet.  They may also have low energy, weight gain, memory problems and more.  These are all symptoms of a sluggish thyroid.
• Adrenal fatigue may be noted with 3 horizontal lines across the forehead  which indicates stress.  If you stick out your tongue straight like a hot dog, and it quivers, that could also be a sign of exhausted adrenals as well as enlarged pupils.
• Ever notice people who seem to be spitting when they are speaking?  This excessive saliva production is typically because they have problems digesting protein and may need some type of digestive enzyme.  Otherwise, they may end up with a deficiency of protein and muscle.
• There are some people who always seem to be twisting their backs or neck.  This is a good indication that they may not be digesting their fats.  They therefore may crave fatty foods as well as their bodies are not getting what they need.  Lipase, the digestive enzyme that breaks down fat may be a good solution.
• Cracked and dry feet may indicate heavy metal toxicity.  This could come from metals such as mercury or lead.  Both are common in vaccines and mercury can be absorbed in the body from mercury fillings or amalgams.
• Even excessive body odor can be an indication of toxicity that is not being filtered out properly from the kidneys, bowels or liver.
  Be sure to listen to your body as it can certainly give you great advice.  These tips may also make you look brilliant at the next barbecue:).Even excessive body odor can be an indication of toxicity that is not being filtered out properly from the kidneys, bowels or liver.
