Introduction

There is not much worse in life than being told that there may be something “wrong” with your child. Our children are precious to us and we have a great deal of anxiety over their welfare and future. When our children start to experience problems with school, and sometimes behavior as well, these anxieties can kick into high gear.  There are so many well-meaning authority figures fueling our fears, and drug companies telling us a little pill will fix everything. But that is not always the truth.

In this Terry Talks Nutrition, we are going to look at natural ways to help parents and children overcome the challenges of Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD) so that they can better explore the gift of this trait instead of struggling with the downside.

Just Ask Terry . . .

Q. Hi, Terry, “I have plantar fasciitis in my left foot and was wondering if you think a natural product would be a good complement to the other things I’m trying (icing, soaking in warm water, rolling on a golf ball, stretching on steps, etc.) I’m trying to avoid getting a cortisone shot, but it’s awfully painful, and unfortunately it’s one of those things that seem to hang on forever.”  Mike B., Ann Arbor, MI

A. Dear Mike, Plantar fasciitis is a hard one, and can linger for months, even years, at a time without proper intervention. You are doing many of the right things with stretching and icing. One idea is to freeze a plastic water bottle 2/3rds full of water and use your sore foot to roll it back and forth. This gives you stretching, icing, and massage all in one activity. You may also want to consult your chiropractor and/or foot specialist, because sometimes this disorder develops because of poor foot alignment, often caused by low or flat arches. Using orthotic devices (shoe inserts) that keep your foot properly aligned as you walk and exercise can reduce the strain on the plantar fascia. In addition to these interventions, it is important to reduce the inflammation in your foot so that the tissue can heal and repair itself. The best combination for this is a blend of curcumin, boswellia, DLPA (dl-Phenylalanine) and nattokinase. Curcumin (from turmeric) and boswellia are two Indian plants that exhibit very effective anti-inflammatory properties. However, plain curcumin 95% is very poorly absorbed and basically is trapped in the intestinal tract.  Recently, an Indian company developed a new high absorption curcumin that is up to 1000% (10 times) better absorbed than plain curcumin 95%.  This is a micronized curcumin with turmeric essential oils blended back into the powder, along with some natural plant phospholipids. Boswellia should be standardized to at least 18% AKBA, which is a potent anti-inflammatory boswellic acid in the herb. DLPA works to sustain the effects of the body’s own natural pain killers, called endorphins and enkephalins, and nattokinase increases microcirculation and balances fibrinogen levels in muscle tissue, which is particularly useful in soft tissue injuries. You can find formulas such as this at quality health food stores in your area.

Terry's healthy comment of the week:

Natural Products for Use as Mosquito Exterminators

Add bacillus thuringiensis (BT) to the water in a pond, fountain or birdbath to kill larvae and aid in mosquito control. Standing water provides a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Even the most active waterfalls and fountains have slow spots behind plants and rocks which may become a larvae birthing ground. BT is a completely harmless natural substance that is safe for pets, fish, birds and wild life but is deadly to all kinds of larvae. It is available in liquid form or as a donut-shaped floating dunk for placing in water and may be purchased at gardening stores.


Today's Word from Joel and Victoria:

Enjoy the Journey

Oftentimes, people tend to get wrapped up and busy with things that don't really matter in eternity. It's easy to get consumed by your career and stay focused on your goals. It's good to work hard, but you've got to learn how to play hard, too, so you can stay in balance. I heard somebody say, "It's not that life is so short, it's that we wait so long to begin living." If we want to truly enjoy the journey of life, we have to take time to stop and smell the roses.

Do you appreciate the people you love? Do you hug your children before you leave each day and give your spouse a kiss? When was the last time you called your parents to tell them how much you love them? That's how we can enjoy the journey. If you'll stay determined to enjoy the journey of life, you'll live with no regrets. You'll see your path shine brighter and brighter, and at the end, you'll be able to say, "I made the most of my life. I enjoyed my family. I enjoyed my friends. I finished my course with joy."

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, thank You for the people You have placed in my life. Teach me to enjoy my relationships more because they are all that matters in eternity. Help me to enjoy the journey of life as my path shines brighter and brighter until the full day. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
