The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is recently in the news for all the wrong reasons. One of the main criticisms is the lengthy wait for America's veterans to get medical appointments and treatments. Veterans often deal with more complex and more intense medical issues than the general population. Disruptions in care and limited medical options exacerbate their issues. But even while the VA struggles to care for its veterans, it does try to listen to their needs.
Natural Calm is a highly absorbable magnesium supplement. Magnesium is an important nutrient that is used by muscles, organs (including the heart and kidney), contributes to the makeup of teeth and bones, activates enzymes, and is part of energy production. Even though you can get magnesium from many foods including whole grains, nuts, and green vegetables, many people are deficient in magnesium and positively benefit from the right kind of supplementation. Natural Calm is a very popular magnesium supplement because it restores healthy magnesium levels and balances calcium intake, which ultimately results in natural stress relief. Who doesn’t want that?
Summer is upon us, and as the weather starts to heat up, it's time to think about the healthiest ways to keep our bodies cool in the sweltering Carolina heat. When I was living in South Korea, where the summer climate is as hot and humid as ours, June through August was the only time you could get samgyetang, a traditional ginseng-chicken soup, something we would think of as exclusively a winter dish.
Things are heating up as we enter the hottest months of the year. Summer is the time we all come out of our cocoons, our wintry shells, to shed our layers and play! In Chinese medicine, summer is the season associated with the fire element, and with the organs of the Heart, Small Intestine, the Pericardium, and the Triple Heater (more about those last two in a moment). They are the organs of warmth, connection, joy, and passion and by using the principles of Chinese medicine, we can learn to have balanced fire in our own lives.
