~Holiday Cookware That Can Harm You~

We’re heading into a season full of family, fun, and—unfortunately for some—headaches, intestinal distress and pain.

One quiet culprit? Aluminum.

What am I talking about?

Many people cook their holiday meals in aluminum roasting pans and send leftovers home in aluminum containers. If you’ve been following my newsletters and Facebook posts, you know I sound like a broken record about this. But I keep bringing it up because I continue to see it: in the photos you share online (I promise I’m not stalking you!) and in the symptoms that show up in my treatment room afterward.

Please give your family and friends the chance to enjoy a more comfortable and healthier holiday season by choosing alternatives to aluminum roasting pans and cookware.

Yes, those disposable pans seem convenient. But the potential negative effects of aluminum exposure simply aren’t worth the “easy cleanup.” If you feel you must use them, at least line the pan with a double layer of parchment paper to create a barrier between the food and the aluminum. It won’t eliminate exposure entirely, but it can help reduce it.

Common aluminum sources to watch for:

· Roasting pans
· Pie tins
· Cookie sheets
· Stovetop pots and pans
· Canned cranberry sauce

By making this small change, many people notice fewer headaches, sore throats, runny noses, intestinal discomfort, and even back and neck pain.

In our home, we use enamel-over-steel roasting pans, glass baking dishes or stainless steel —durable, safe options that keep all the bodies happier.

~ Health Tip - Erythritol ~

I’ve had several people come in recently with treats made using erythritol, and none of them have tested well for their bodies.

With the holidays quickly approaching, I want to make sure you know where erythritol commonly shows up so you can keep an eye out for it.

Erythritol is most often found in “sugar-free” or “low-sugar” products, including:

• Baked goods
• Candy
• Ice cream
• Chewing gum
• Diet or “zero” sodas

If you’re bringing treats to gatherings or buying holiday snacks, take a moment to check the ingredient list—especially if you’ve noticed your body reacting to sugar substitutes.

If you are baking, here are some options you can use: Sucanat whole cane sugar, coconut sugar, maple syrup, honey.

*Health Tip – Fragrances and Your Health*

Do you know someone who struggles with breathing or sinus issues?

Do they happen to use fragrance plug-ins, incense, or other scented products in their home or car?

If you or someone you know experiences ongoing health issues, it’s important to be aware of these common toxic fragrance sources that may be contributing to the problem:

• Perfumes and colognes
• Laundry products – detergents, fabric softeners, scented beads
• Shower products – shampoo, conditioner, body wash,
shaving cream, bath bombs
• Hair products – gels, sprays, styling creams
• Hand creams and lotions – scented oils or moisturizers
• Home air fresheners – plug-ins, diffusers, essential oils
• Car air “fresheners” – hanging scents, clip-ons, sprays
• Pet grooming products – shampoos, conditioners, wipes

I’ve found that these fragranced products are a major contributor to respiratory and other health issues in many patients. I strongly encourage avoiding them — even if you currently have no symptoms.

Years ago, I recommended this to a new patient who was deeply upset at the thought of giving up her scented products. However, after following through, she experienced a remarkable turnaround in her health and was able to discontinue several medications.

More recently, a friend stayed at an Airbnb that had 8–10 plug-ins plus incense sticks. Within a day, he developed nasal congestion and other symptoms — which quickly disappeared after he left.

Fragrances may seem harmless, or even enjoyable, but your body might be telling you otherwise.

Listen to it.

*What You Might Not Know*

One thing that sets me apart from other doctors who use muscle testing, recommend supplements, and perform blood testing is that I take all of that information and translate it into individualized, hands-on treatments. There is so much more that I do.

I use a precise technology that I was trained in that allows me to work directly with any body tissue, including infants before they are born.

These treatments are designed to correct the specific situation or problem that needs to be resolved. Supplements are just a small part of the powerful and comprehensive technology I use through these treatments.

HEALTH TIP - HIMALAYAN SALT

Over the years, I’ve observed that when people use Himalayan salt, it often tests negatively on their bodies. This observation conflicts with much of the information promoting Himalayan and other “pink” salts as health-enhancing.

If you’re using Himalayan or pink salt and experiencing unexplained issues with your body, it’s worth considering that the salt itself may be contributing to the problem.

Many of my patients are surprised by the positive changes they notice once they switch to a different type of salt.
