SINUS PROBLEMS
Many
of us suffer from sinus and it spoils the beauty of spring and summer.
Sinus occurs when the air filled spaces in the bones behind the cheeks
and forehead and around the eyes become inflamed, swollen and blocked.
The cause can be allergy, infection, irritation, atmospheric pressure
changes or an obstruction. Inflammation in this area is called
sinusitis.
Symptoms are a blocked nose and congestion
with pressure inside the face, persistent pain and swelling behind the
nose and above the eyes or headaches.
If the problem is not attended to then it can
develop into tenderness in that area, postnasal drip leading to cough,
bad breath, impaired sense of taste and smell, sinus pain, yellow or
green mucus or a high temperature.
Inflammation can occur due to infection such
as a cold, allergy sensitivity to pollens, dust mites, moulds,
pollution, cigarettes, chemicals, foods, animals etc. dental infections,
changing air pressure in the ears from activities such as swimming or
even high stress levels.
Although congestion can be relieved by
decongestants it is possible to become reliant on these. There are many
natural products that you can use to relieve sinus in conjunction with
proper diet.
Vitamin C in high doses is important but be
careful as this vitamin in excess can cause diarrhoea. Bioflavonoids,
rutin, hesperidin, citrin, garlic, Vitamin A (take care as this vitamin
in large doses can be toxic) also help. Honey is good, Calcium lactate,
Bee Pollen (but not if you are allergic to pollen), Brewer’s Yeast (but
not if you have allergies here) which is high in Vitamin B which fights
infection, B6 which is a natural antihistamine, Vitamin E and Zinc.
Manna C by Mannatech works well for some.
Juices that are good to drink are lemon, black
currant, orange, pineapple, carrot, beet, tomato, green pepper,
watercress, small doses added to vegetable juice of onion and garlic
juice. Good herbal teas are rose hip, chamomile, peppermint, lemon
grass, ginger, and sage.

If you have answered 'yes' to even one of these questions
then you are suffering from immune dysfunction. There are many natural
products available now that can very quickly boost your immunity. A lot
of research has been done in the last 50 years regarding this topic and
unfortunately the results of the research are often not made known to
the general public, or if they are, people do not know where to look for
the information.
Recently we have been doing a lot of work in this area to bring
new products to our clients. We are able to access products in both
Australia and overseas which may be able to help in your specific areas
of need. These are not often available to the general public in health
food stores. If you have been feeling below par, contact us on
0414680713 and let us help you work out which of these products are
right for you.
These products are available for purchase from us although we do not
sell vitamins.
SENSITIVITY TESTING
Are you sensitive to wheat, yeast, lactose? Does your stomach
get upset when you eat chilli or do you get bloated when you have
potatoes? Do you sneeze when you are exposed to certain plants? Are you
sensitive to dust?
Or is it that you don’t really know why you are tired, lack
energy, bloat, generally feel down in the dumps?
You could be sensitive to a whole range of things.
Let us test your sensitivity to a whole range of meats, fruits,
vegetables, nuts, additives, cleaning products, dust and much more. Let
us check which vitamins your body is deficient in and what hormones or
enzymes you may be lacking.
Our non-invasive sensitivity test takes just a minute to do and
you will have the result in about 2 weeks. You will get a copy of the
results and a report plus tips to guide you how to de-sensitise to what
affects you.
Mums – are the kids sensitive to certain foods and you haven’t
realized it? Why not let us check it out for you? No needles involved.
