The New Vitamin D Recommendations – Ignoring the Facts…

December 8, 2010 by Carol 4 Comments

I was shocked last week to hear that the long awaited revision of Vitamin D recommendations ignored most of the of studies showing the benefits of Vit D for preventing serious illness and optimizing health. The Institute of Medicine’s Food and Nutrition Board – a supposedly independent government funded board – did indeed revise their recommendations for Vitamin D intake, but by such a small amount as to be almost insignificant. And more seriously, it gives the public, and allopathic doctors the impression that low Vit. D levels are not a cause of concern.

I beg to differ – this is a very big cause for concern! Thousands of studies have showed that higher levels of Vitamin D helps prevent 17 different types of cancer (including breast, prostate and colon cancer)  the flu, asthma, heart attacks, strokes, autoimmune disorders, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, bone disorders, depression, chronic pain, poor balance and weakened immunity in addition to osteoporosis! These new recommendations ignore most of the newest information available and if followed, would leave millions of Vitamin D deficient people vulnerable to a host of largely preventable diseases.

Sunlight and Vitamin D

June 21, 2010 by Carol 1 Comment

It’s the first day of summer, and today was a gorgeous sunny day in the Northeast. Time to look at the benefits of sunlight and the dispel some of the fear that has been generated about sun exposure in recent years. Human beings evolved in a warm, sunny climate, and our bodies rely on sunlight, not food sources to produce Vitamin D.So much fear has been generated about skin cancers that many people never allow their skin to reap the benefits of healing sunlight (without Vitamin D-blocking sunscreens.)

And ironically, it is nutritional deficiencies of Vitamin D and antioxidants that can make us more prone to skin cancers. It is estimated that for every case of skin cancer eliminated by avoiding sun exposure or sunscreen use, there are 20 or more cases of breast or prostate cancer caused by the ensuing lack of Vitamin D!

Welcome to My Blog!

July 16, 2009 by Carol Leave a Comment

Welcome to my new blog. I envision this blog as a way to go into more depth about a variety of topics in health and healing. My passion is drawing on all the diverse philosophies and tools I have studied to help people find their own unique path to health and healing. My favorite tools are energy medicine, guided imagery meditation, EFT and meridian tapping, gentle bodywork and nutritional counseling. In this blog, and in all my work I explore all levels of our being – body, heart, mind and spirit. How these interconnect, how we explore our full humanity is a source of great fascination to me.

My free weekly teleseminar, “Profound Paths to Health, Healing and Happiness” is returning Sept. 15th, 2009 for our 3rd season. In it, I have in-depth conversations with some of the most innovative and visionary teachers and practitioners in health and healing. People who’s work incorporates an understanding of, and an orientation to body, heart, mind and spirit. I am really excited about our line-up of speakers and will be sharing more about them. I’d love to hear about your interests; who and what you’d like to learn about, and get your feedback on previous speakers and topics.

Please feel free to come back whenever you like, or leave me a comment.

Yours in Peace,

Carol
