Title: 24-9 How To Reduce Inflammation Naturally

EPISODE 24:9 HOW TO REDUCE INFLAMMATION NATURALLY In last week’s episode (Episode 24-8) I shared with you the number ONE cause of most chronic health problems… Inflammation. Unfortunately, very few medical doctors understand the connection between inflammation and disease. As a result, they tend to “treat” chronic health problems with drugs. Drugs that only manage a person’s symptoms. Drugs that have negative side-effects. Drugs that don’t address the underlying cause. On this episode I share what a person can do, naturally, to reduce inflammation.  Specifically I discuss drug-free nutritional strategies that are simple, inexpensive, and “anti-inflammatory” in nature. Strategies that get to the root cause of most health problems. Give this episode a good listen as the information may have a dramatic impact on your health. A positive impact.  Then be sure to share this episode with a friend.  Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

24-8 The ONE Cause Of Most Health Problems

EPISODE 24:8 THE ONE CAUSE OF MOST HEALTH PROBLEMS A man goes to the doctor complaining that he feels lousy. Specifically, he’s been experiencing a lot of brain fog, fatigue, stomach problems and insomnia. His doctor runs some tests and tells the man that he has Type 2 Diabetes and needs to start taking a drug. The man complies. A few months later the man returns to the doctor because he is still feeling lousy. The doctor refers him to a Cardiologist because both his blood pressure and cholesterol levels are now high. The Cardiologist prescribes one drug for the high blood pressure and another for the high cholesterol.  Unfortunately, another few months go by and the man still doesn’t feel better. In fact, he’s feeling worse. His back and left leg hurt, his insomnia is worse, depression is sinking in, and he’s experiencing erectile dysfunction. The doctor responds by suggesting more drugs. This time the man doesn’t comply. He’s sick and tired of being sick and tired. Sick and tired of being prescribed one drug after another. He wants answers. Specifically, he wants AN answer. An explanation regarding the underlying CAUSE of his many ailments. A common denominator. On this episode we give him his answer. We tell him the ONE cause that's behind most, if not all, of his health problems.  A cause that everyone should be made aware of. A cause we discuss in depth on this episode. Please give it a good listen and then share it with a friend.  Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

24-6 The Key To Successful Prayer: Understanding The Difference Between Your Spirit, Your Soul, And Your Body

EPISODE 24:6 THE KEY TO SUCCESSFUL PRAYER: UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR SPIRIT, YOUR SOUL, AND YOUR BODY   The past two episodes of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast focused on how to use prayer AS a treatment.   Emphasis was placed on shifting your focus AWAY from your ailment and towards the perfection of God.   A perfection that resides within you!   Several listeners have already taken what they learned and incorporated it into their prayer life with great success.   Others have been hung up on questions.   Questions such as…   1) “How can any part of me be perfect when I know I sin?
   2) “How can prayer heal me of something like Type 2 Diabetes if I don’t change my lifestyle?”   These are great questions.   Questions that can be answered once a person has a better understanding of the difference between their Spirit, their Soul, and their Body.   On this episode we explain these differences and how understanding them can improve your ability to use prayer as a treatment.   Give this episode a good listen as it will take your prayer life to a new level.   And, as always, be sure to share this with a friend.   Thanks!   ———————-   Want to learn more?   Continue the conversation regarding this episode, and all future episodes, by signing up for our daily emails.   Simply visit: GETHEALTHYALABAMA.COM    Once there, download the “Symptom Survey” and you will automatically added to our email list.   ———————-   Also, if you haven’t already, we'd appreciate it if you'd subscribe to the podcast, leave a comment and give us a rating.

24-5 The BEST Way To Pray - Part Two

On last week’s episode we talked about how to use prayer AS a treatment. The topic created quite a stir as people aren’t used to using prayer AS a treatment. Instead, they are only accustomed to using pray FOR another form of treatment. For example, people are only familiar with praying…  1) For God to heal them. 2) For God to give the doctor wisdom. 3) For a specific treatment to work. Certainly praying for any of those things is good but using prayer AS a treatment is, in our opinion, even better. And on last week’s episode we taught you how… how to use prayer AS a treatment. On THIS week’s episode we discuss some of the feedback we received from last week’s episode including some compliments AND some complaints. We also share a specific example of HOW to use prayer as a treatment... along with a very interesting explanation of why - believe it or not - it may not be a good idea to ask God to heal you. Give this episode a good listen and then share it with a friend. Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

24-4 Need A Healing? Here’s The BEST Way To Pray

  EPISODE 24:4 NEED A HEALING? HERE’S THE BEST WAY TO PRAY   When it comes to healing, most people believe in the power of prayer.   And, when we pray, we typically pray for three things:   1) For God to heal the person.   2) God to give the doctor wisdom.   3) For a specific treatment to work.   Praying like this is certainly good.   Unfortunately, it’s not Biblical!   That is, nowhere in the Bible do we ever see anyone praying…   1) For God to heal a person.   2) For God to give a doctor wisdom.   3) For a specific treatment to work.   So why do we do it?   Why do we pray for healing to occur through a person or a remedy?   We shouldn’t!   Here’s what we SHOULD do:   We should use prayer AS a treatment.   This, of course, is going to baffle some people.   After all, how could prayer be used AS a treatment?   That’s a great question… one we answer on this episode.   Be sure to give it a good listen and then share it with a friend.   Thanks!   ———————-   Want to learn more?   Continue the conversation regarding this episode, and all future episodes, by signing up for our daily emails.   Simply visit: GETHEALTHYALABAMA.COM   Once there, download the “Symptom Survey” and you will automatically added to our email list.   ———————-   Also, if you haven’t already, we'd appreciate it if you'd subscribe to the podcast, leave a comment and give us a rating.

24-1 How To Detox The Right Way: Part One

Episode 24:1 How To Detox The Right Way: Part One What better way to start the new year than with a “detox?” While that certainly is a good idea, most people make a BIG mistake when it comes to detoxification programs. Specifically, most people limit their “detox” to the use of nutritional aids to cleanse their physical body, And, while that’s helpful, it’s not enough.  You see, your health is determined by more than just your nutritional status. Other factors such as your thoughts, your beliefs and your mindset also have a huge impact. A healthy impact... or a toxic one. It’s true.  Your thoughts and beliefs can be TOXIC… and they can have a negative impact on your health. On this episode we teach you three principles that will help you detoxify your thoughts, beliefs and mindsets. These three principles are incredibly simple, yet powerful... and can dramatically improve your life. Please give this episode a good listen and then share it with a friend.

Episode 23:51 Viruses and Bacteria: What You Need To Know And WHY You Need To Know It What’s the difference between viruses and bacteria? There are several answers. One is that bacteria are “living” organisms. Viruses are not. Another difference is that bacteria reproduce… viruses do not. They replicate. And because viruses replicate, they need a “host”… an entity they can attach to and use as a “copy machine.” Interestingly… WE are that copy machine! WE are the “host” tha viruses use to replicate themselves. On this episode we talk about these and other differences between viruses and bacteria. Specifically, we discuss what these differences mean when it comes to your health. What they mean when it comes to preventing and treating infections.

Specifically, there are Mental and Emotional factors that play a huge role in determining one’s level of health. On this episode we share four real-life stories from the previous two weeks… stories that provide insight into the role of mental and emotional factors on health. Factors that have nothing to do with exercising and eating right. Give this episode a good listen as it may provide the piece that’s been missing in your health quest.

23-44 Seven Messages Your Body Is Sending You Regarding Your Health

EPISODE 23:44 SEVEN MESSAGES YOUR BODY IS CONSTANTLY SENDING YOU REGARDING YOUR HEALTH We live in a hi-tech world.  A world filled with gadgets and gizmos… all created to make life easier and better.  This is especially true with regard to health care.  Technological advances have given us diagnostic and treatment tools that were only dreamed about in the past. However, despite all of the “new and improved” tools doctors have at their disposal the truth is that most people’s health is getting worse, not better. For this reason, perhaps it’s time that we, as a nation, made a change… a change that involves going back to some basic fundamentals. Specifically, when it comes to our health, we should start relying more on the messages our bodies are telling us than on the feedback we get from expensive, hi-tech machines. In this episode we discuss seven "old school" messages our bodies are constantly telling us. - Messages about our heath. - Messages that are extremely inexpensive and easy to understand. - Messages that warn us when something is wrong. Get each of these messages “right” and you will almost certainly be healthy. Get any of these messages “wrong” and your health will be heading towards a downwards spiral. It’s that simple. Give this episode a good listen and LEARN THE SEVEN MESSAGES as they will give you a tremendous insight into your current, and future, health status. And, as always, be sure to recommend this episode to a friend.   Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

23-43 The Interesting Role Vitamin D Plays In Low Testosterone Levels, Infertility, Osteoporosis, Restless Leg Syndrome, Itchy Skin, Hives, And Canker Sores

EPISODE 23:43 THE INTERESTING ROLE VITAMIN D PLAYS IN LOW TESTOSTERONE LEVELS, INFERTILITY, OSTEOPOROSIS, RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME, ITCHY SKIN, HIVES, AND CANKER SORES On the last episode of the Get Healthy Alabama podcast we talked about the role sunshine and Vitamin D play in helping you look better, feel better, lower your cholesterol levels and boost your immunity. On this episode we take that conversation a step further. Specifically we discuss how increasing Vitamin D levels can improve fertility in women… and testosterone levels in men. We also share how Vitamin D works with other vitamins and minerals… most notably Vitamin F (yes, there IS a vitamin F, it’s just not recognized by the FDA) and Calcium. We then explain how imbalances among Vitamin D, Vitamin F and Calcium can result in conditions such as osteoporosis, “leathery” skin, extreme itching, hives, welts, canker sores, and restless legs. The physiology behind the interplay of these nutrients is fascinating and we do our best to explain it to you. Give this episode a good listen as it will help you know what to do to prevent and/or treat any of these conditions. And, as always, please recommend this episode to a friend.

23-41 Natural Alternatives For The 10 Most Prescribed Drugs: Part 2

EPISODE 23:41 NATURAL ALTERNATIVES FOR THE 10 MOST PRESCRIBED DRUGS: PART 2 The following are the ten most prescribed drugs in the United States: Lipitor Lisinopril Albuterol Synthroid Norvasc Gabapentin Prilosec Metformin Amoxicillin Prednisone While the use of prescription drugs certainly has its place, NONE of the drugs listed above do anything to correct the underlying CAUSE. Not only that, ALL of these drugs have side-effects… some quite dangerous. There HAS TO be a better way. Fortunately, there IS. A safer, more natural alternative to drugs. On the last episode we discussed natural alternatives to three of the drugs on the list (Lipitor, Lisinopril and Norvasc). On this episode we address natural alternatives for the remaining seven. Please give it a good listen and then share it with a friend. Thanks! ———————- Want to learn more?

23-40 Natural Alternatives For The 10 Most Prescribed Drugs

EPISODE 23:40 NATURAL ALTERNATIVES FOR THE 10 MOST PRESCRIBED DRUGS There are 330 million people living in the United States. That’s a lot. However, that number (330,000,000) pales in comparison to the number of prescription drugs filled each year in the United States. It’s 4.83 Billion. Yes, that’s Billion with a B. 4,830,000,000 4.83 Billion prescriptions filled for 330 million people. Do the math and you’ll see that translates to over 14 prescriptions filled each year for EVERY person in the United States… including children, teens, and young adults. That’s NOT good!

Specifically, we look at the 10 most widely prescribed drugs in the US and then offer natural alternatives. Give this episode a good listen and then share it with a friend.

23-39 Two Powerful Influences On Your Health: Morning Sun and WHEN You Eat

EPISODE 23:39 TWO POWERFUL INFLUENCES ON YOUR HEALTH: MORNING SUN AND WHEN YOU EAT Did you know that your body has an internal “clock” that helps it control all of its functions? Actually, that’s not true. Your body doesn’t have ONE internal “clock” that helps it control all of its functions… It has two! Hormone production, neurotransmitter production, insulin production, digestive enzyme production, muscle strength, hair growth, skin rejuvenation, and sex drive… ALL are controlled, in part, by your body’s TWO internal “clocks.” Get these clocks working right and your health will improve. Get these clocks out of sync and your health will deteriorate. It’s that simple. On this episode we discuss each of these clocks and the role they play in keeping your body functionally optimally. We also discuss the factors that keep these clocks "on time." Specifically, we discuss the very important and powerful impact of... 1) Early morning sunlight. 2) WHEN you eat. This a fascinating episode filled with great information on how to live in harmony with God's design for your body. Give it a good listen and then please share it with a friend.

23-38 Considering A Booster Jab For Your Child? PLEASE Listen To This First

EPISODE 23:38 CONSIDERING A BOOSTER JAB FOR YOUR CHILD? PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS FIRST The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recently recommended that everyone get the new Covid Booster vaccine. This includes infants, children, and adolescents. WHY??? Needless to say, the topic of vaccines is controversial, but WHY would a booster be recommended for anyone under the age of 21? Will it prevent death? NO!!! Will it prevent a young person from getting Covid? NO!!! Will it prevent a young person from spreading Covid? NO!!! Truth be told, according to the CDC’s own data, one million doses of the vaccine administered to youngsters “may” prevent ONE life. The key word there is “may.” The booster “may” prevent one death. However, the real TRUTH is that there is no data showing that any of the Covid vaccines have prevented ANY deaths in infants, children, and adolescents.     Not only that… the CDC’s own data admits that, given the same one million doses, there will probably be 100,000 - 300,000 negative side-effects including 50-300 cases of myocarditis. Side-effects from a jab that is supposed to be safe and effective? Yes! And, one of those side-effects for a young person IS myocarditis. But that’s not all. Several countries including Japan, Germany, Britain and Australia are NOT recommending the booster jab for those under the age of 65. Why? What do they know that our CDC and FDA doesn’t? Or, what is it that the CDC and FDA knows but isn’t telling us? Are they more interested in following an agenda than they are the science? On this week’s episode we take a deeper look into all things related to the booster vaccine. Be sure to give it a good listen and then share it with a friend. Thanks! ——————- Want to learn more?

EPISODE 23:37 GENETICS AND YOUR HEALTH - EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW Cancer, heart disease, diabetes, anxiety, depression, Alzheimer’s, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Parkinson’s, alcoholism, eczema and psoriasis. You probably know that your genes play a role in these and virtually every other chronic disease. However, you may not know what that role is. On this episode we identify that role. Specifically, we explain why having a gene for a disease does NOT mean that you’ll get that disease. We then share WHY that is... and WHAT the real determining factor is.  Give this episode a good listen as understanding the connection between your genes and your health is vitally important… and grossly misunderstood.

23-36 California Here I Come - Catching Up With Brandan Burroughs

EPISODE 23:36 CALIFORNIA HERE I COME - CATCHING UP WITH BRANDAN BURROUGHS Earlier this year, on Episode 23-17, we had Brandan Burroughs on the podcast. He had just moved back to Alabama after becoming very sick while living in California. Turns out he had Type 1 Diabetes and on that episode he shared with us his opinion on WHY he developed diabetes and HOW he was coping with it. It was a really good episode. Now, five months later, we have Brandan on again for another episode. The reason is simple: When he first moved back to Alabama he assumed it would take three years before he felt good enough to return to California. He was wrong. The truth is, in the past few months he has done so well managing his diabetes that he has accepted a job and is moving back to San Diego... this week! However, before he goes, he agreed to share with us some insights on what he has done to manage his Type 1 Diabetes so successfully. His story is inspiring and the information he shares provides an excellent resource for anyone looking to control their blood sugar… or simply improve their health. Be sure to give this episode a good listen and then share it with a friend. Thanks! _______ Want to learn more?
