Are These Home Health Issues Causing You Trouble?

Are These Home Health Issues Causing You Trouble?

November 20, 2020 //  by Marian Mitchell//  Leave a Comment

Are you worried about health issues in your home? It’s fair to say that there are a lot of hidden problems in your home that you might overlook completely. Here are some that we suggest you do consider and keep in mind. 

Dirty Electricity 

Have you heard of dirty electricity? It’s not a commonly understood term but it could be causing issues with your health in your home. A lot of people these days are investing in more eco-friendly tech devices. Now, you might assume that if you get a more energy-efficient piece of equipment, less electricity goes to your home. But this isn’t the case. Instead, the same amount of electricity goes into the device, but rather than being used some is sent back. This is why the safety of LED lights is often called into question because these cause a lot of dirty electricity. So, what type of problems can this cause?

Research suggests that dirty electricity can be responsible for nasty headaches as well as feelings of vertigo. As such, if you are suffering from issues like this, then it might be worth switching to halogen lights in your home instead. 

Mold

A lot of people ignore the issue of mold completely because it is so common. It’s also often mistaken for dirty places like the windows and walls of your home. However, that doesn’t mean that mold isn’t dangerous. It definitely can be, particularly if you have young children or allergies. Research shows that the spores released by mold can cause breathing issues and in some cases, this is severe enough to require medical treatment. 

There are numerous ways that you can deal with mold if it is present in your home. For instance, you can invest in a dehumidifier to reduce the moisture in the air that provides the perfect environment for mold. If you notice mold around your window, this also typically means that the windows are blown, allowing water to build-up due to issues with condensation. 

Fluoride

Fluoride is a substance that can be found in toothpaste. It’s great for cleaning your teeth and it’s also one of the reasons why dentists encourage you to spit the toothpaste out rather than swallow it. Various research has shown that fluoride can have negative impacts on the body and the brain. Indeed, some studies suggest that fluoride could be linked to the issue of a low IQ or even the development of brain tumors. While you likely know to spit out fluoride, you could be surprised to learn that it can often be present in high quantities in water that comes from a tap. As such, you should consider investing in a filtration system. In doing so, you can guarantee that your water is clean and clear of dangerous, toxic chemicals. 

Asbestos

Asbestos is often found in older homes that were built before the 1980s. Before studies emerged linking it to certain types of cancer, asbestos was widely favoured as a form of insulation. Today, of course, things are quite different and asbestos isn’t typically used at all. However, if you bought an older home it could still have asbestos lurking inside the walls. The good news is that asbestos is only dangerous if it’s disturbed. If it’s left alone, it will have no impact on your health at all. Usually, it will be discovered during renovation work and then it needs to be removed. 

Electromagnetic Energy 

Electromagnetic energy is produced by any device that is connected to the internet. These days, that could include various pieces of tech that is dotted around your home. Research shows that this energy can have various impacts on your health. The main issue is that it can impact your sleeping pattern and stop you from experiencing a deep restful sleep. This could be the reason why you always feel exhausted when you wake up in the morning. If you do have this issue, you might want to think about removing some of the tech from your bedroom. 

Air Quality 

Finally, it could be that you have a problem with the air quality in your home. The simplest way to avoid this is to go green. Plants will naturally clean up your air and ensure that there is a healthy environment inside your home. 

We hope this helps you understand some of the greatest threats to your health that could be lurking in your home and what you can do to tackle the problems here. If you approach this the right way you will be able to make sure that you are protecting the health of yourself and the rest of your family. 

Is your home harming your health?

Smoothies are one of the easiest ways to get your Smoothies are one of the easiest ways to get your powdered supplements in along with s ton of nutrients.

There is a right way and a wrong way to do smoothies.

Do not
✖️use only fruit
✖️protein powder and water or milk

Instead
✅combine fruit, greens, and a fat
✅add a protein powder (I prefer collagen peptides)
✅add water, coconut water, or milk of choice

One will leave you feeling hungry within the hour. The other will sustain you for hours. One has few nutrients, one has a lot of nutrients.

Stay sustained and get the most nutritional bang for your buck by revamping your smoothies.
Homemade Date Truffles are a delicious and healthy Homemade Date Truffles are a delicious and healthy snack that satisfy the sweet tooth. I actually don't make them often because I'll eat the entire batch in 2 days 🤭 They are so yummy though.

Dates have been around since around 5,000-6,000 BCE and are known as nature’s candy. Not only are they absolutely delicious, they are nutrient powerhouses. They contain protein, fatty acids and an array of vitamins and minerals. Including, but not limited to, Vitamin A, lutein, vitamin K, niacin, B6, folate, pantothenic acid (another B vitamin), choline (brain booster), calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc and phosphorus.

On top of all this, they help protect against tooth decay even being so high in natural sugars. This is because they contain elemental flourine, not the man made flouride that is in added to water or what is in flourinated toothpaste.

Ingredients 👇
Dates
Crushed almonds
Crushed cashews
Honey 
Coconut oil 
Vanilla extract 
Sea salt
Chocolate chips 
Shredded coconut or cocoa powder

7 snacks 🤤

One of the most effective ways to transform your h One of the most effective ways to transform your health, make your medication more effective, and just plain feel better is to clean up your diet.

This is often easier said than done. Changes habits is hard. It requires energy and time, which often is in short supply. However, it isn't as hard as you think. Here are my 3 steps to get started. I don't recommend doing them all at once. Start with step 1, then move on. Slow and steady wins the race.
Healthy eating gets boring fast when you don't add Healthy eating gets boring fast when you don't add flavor. How do you get flavor in a healthy way? 
◾️Herbs
◾️spices
◾️sauces
You can make the exact same protein and veggies taste at least 12 different ways depending on what you put on top.

My top favorite sauce is Chimichurri. It's a blend of parsley, oregano, garlic, olive oil, salt, and red pepper flakes blended into deliciousness. I put it on top of my cooked proteins, on my veggies, and will even use as a salad dressing. It's sooooooo good.

You can get this recipe over on my website: https://www.roadtolivingwhole.com/traditional-chimichurri-sauce/ and enjoy this delicious sauce too!

Bitter foods stimulates the entire digestive syste Bitter foods stimulates the entire digestive system from our saliva being able to more effectively start the breakdown of carbohydrates, hydrochloric acid being pumped into our stomachs in appropriate amounts, and increases bile production.

The benefits of digestive bitters are pretty amazing and include:

◾️Higher absorption of nutrition from our foods
◾️Especially vitamins A, D, K, E and B12
◾️Reduce incidences of heartburn
◾️Increase fat digestion, which is particularly important for those who have had their gallbladders removed or are concerned about their gallbladder health
◾️Cleansing of the liver
◾️Reduction in gas, bloating, and constipation
◾️Balancing blood sugar levels
◾️Appetite regulation
◾️Promotes healthy skin

Pretty awesome right?! Deficiencies in fat soluble nutrients, gallbladder issues, sluggish liver, constipation run pretty rampant these days. It’s nice to know we have a solution that doesn’t cause other health issues.
