I was visiting at a friend’s house when her sister came over for a chat. She had her 2 year old daughter with her.
She had just come back from a doctor's visit. This was her third child and this child would not or could not hold food down. No one was sure. If she had something in her mouth that she did not like she literally gagged and threw it up. I had never witnessed such a thing before. It seemed more in her head than an actual allergy or food intolerance but regardless it is still alarming and concerning. The many trips to the pediatrician did not offer any results. Her other 2 children have good appetites, ate well and were not picky eaters. Then she had this child. THIS CHILD. This child only ate 2 things and despite this seemed to be healthy.

I was asked recently if I treat CHILDREN’S HEALTH and WELLNESS and the answer is a resounding YES!!! Children are such amazing little beings who respond very well to Natural Medicine, Homeopathy in particular.

These little sponges cells are just being created and duplicated unlike with adults, our cells must regenerate and repair daily and it is harder for grown ups to regenerate energy . So with the great fluidity of their little bodies it makes them very receptive to medicine and healing. Their cells are duplicating very quickly so it is easier to make shifts and changes

If disturbances are treated in a timely manner it usually doesn’t take much to bring harmony and balance back to your child’s body. Just veer off, over here, down this Natural Path and let’s get things better. Contact me here on fb@ Katherine Nelson Herbal Consultations or drop me an email at katherineofnelson2@outlook.com.

Do you have a cupboard full of supplements that you are not sure what to make of?

I am often asked when is it too much? Too many supplements being taken rather than not. And so much confusion on when to take it for the greatest benefit to your body and pocketbook.

The answer is; not one size fits all…it all depends on personal circumstances...the where, when, why and how.

So many of us are taking supplements without really knowing why or what we are taking them for. With so much information from so many different sources, the health industry can be quite daunting and almost misinformative.

Every store that you walk in has a different person with a different opinion and point of view on which supplement is the best. On what the body, your body, their body needs.

In my humble opinion there are a few supplements that could be considered to be taken long term and without issue while greatly benefiting the human vessel.

-Good fats are often a missed food group in our Western culture and diet so many find that supplements are any easy way to get much needed lubrication to aid in an alert brain, food for the muscles and lymphatic system.

-We no longer at sweet meats, tendon, cartilage and blood products so we are missing out on alot of bone, tendon, skin and cartilage building foods so we use collagen for this purpose.

-In our Western diet unless you are a fruitarian it is almost impossible to get the amount of water soluble Vitamin C or B’s needed for our stressful lives. The more stress the more vitamin and mineral deficiency. That is a fact.

-Good bacteria is hard to come by. Period. Taking a probiotic, even short term, can greatly benefit the whole body. From proper poops to staving off every bug be it bacterial or viral, that is going around.

-If there is chronic pain or infections other supplements should and could be considered.

If you are overwhelmed by what is in your cupboards and don’t know where to start I can walk you through it. We can come up with a when, where, why and how plan for you to utilize what you have in your cupboard and benefit from it.

So my Amygdala brain had a spaz attack the other day…a transformer blew out in the Southend…well let me tell you what I thought happened….all I heard was a huge pop like 7 fuses blowing at once on my left side and the floor shook….well I immediately thought it was my below neighbour’s flat that was about to burn up with their Cats in it which means mine will perish as well if I do not act quickly…what to take, what to run with….so I go knock on the door like the good freaked out Neighbour that I am, to receive no answer so of course, as one does, I frantically call my Neighbour and tell her her house is on fire…maybe…I do not smell smoke yet…yet… I am not sure but I am pretty much 99.9% sure….I am calling the landlord and I will have them come put the fire out…..she complied…a few minutes after I had called said landlord with no joy, I harangued my other ever so patient with me Neighbour into stealthily going into the home and putting out the fire ourselves…fortunately the door was open and off we went to the electrical/laundry room to find…wait for it…nothing…her one Cat was like ”Hey what you doing?”, the other still lay lazing in the window.
I was floored that there was no smoke, fire, mayhem or broken hot water tank and no alarmed animals. I went back upstairs to said Neighbour calling me back to inform me that a transformer went out for a millisecond out in our end of town and there should be no worries…
But I blathered on for a minute or two on how maybe I should wait to lock the door because there still might be danger, no wait there is no issue, but wait just in case…blah…blah…blah...I was almost hysterical and the shock sent me into a frenzy that I was still feeling 3 days later.
But and by the way I do have remedy for that and after taking a few doses over the course of a couple of days logic, reason and common sense have prevailed. But I am still embarrassed when I see her as I appeared insane.
Silly, silly Woman or as my friend Chris Moon reminds me, “You are such an Idiot”.
I concur Chris, I concur. Sigh.

EXCESSIVE MENSTRUATION - bleeding for more than your regular period - is a sign that the body is NOT getting the proper signals required to regulate blood loss. And yes that is what it is, it is blood loss - hemorrhaging- and this is NOT good, this is NOT normal and this is NOT JUST HOW YOUR BODY WORKS.

This condition can be managed to the point where you do not become or remain ANEMIC, tired every minute of every day ( again NOT normal) and can wear something other than period panties for 21 days a month.

If you want to halt your blood loss and get back to feeling alive and vibrant again contact me here on fb at Katherine Nelson Herbal Consultations or send me a message via email kathererineofnelson2@outlook.com

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you into something else is the greatest accomplishment” Ralph Waldo Emerson telling the world to just be themselves and to embrace it….

Wow, this was written sometime in the summer of the 1800’s, almost 200 years ago and it rings so much more true today…and not just for the noble, royals and monarchs but today it has reached all aspects of our world…especially our innocent, naive children.

How tragically sad is it that today a child is effectively taught to be unkind, mean, hateful and self loathing through ugly words spoken and written by other people. Through “Reality TV” abhorrent behaviour. To disguise this trash talk as humour and just joking…..

How can a child whose brain is still forming understand that this is not reality…or that it should not be?

To unlearn morals, manners and common sense is terrifying…to gleefully deliberately unteach it is disgraceful and shameful.
With our “leaders” behaving like 5 year olds, when they are in charge and name call, point fingers and pout.

Spitting their dummies out and screaming about it.

With worldwide public, social media sanctioned malcontent running rampant in our ears and before our eyes I long for the days when we had to wait for it on the news.
Or read it in the paper.
When garbage was less accessible to the public but rather hidden behind closed doors, viewed by only the depraved.
When bad behaviour was less common because it was not socially accepted.
When it was normal for children of all ages to be outside horsing and playing around. Not stuck behind closed doors learning lies or unlearning truths, fact and reality.

Whenever I hear someone talk about their stomach ULCERS and H-PYLORI and taking antacids for hyperacidity I cringe and probably pull a face...in my mind ( yeah right...I do verbalize it occasionally - well, okay, all of the time ) I wonder how the lining of the stomach can develop an ulceration ( ulcerations are the formation of a BREAK/SPLIT/TEAR/SORE/WEEPING WOUND on the skin or on the surface of an organ) if there is stomach acid in the way, let alone too much stomach acid?
It cannot... one of stomach acids jobs is to kill bacteria ( h-pylori ), parasites and viruses and mucus -the snot necessary to keep all organs/glands/tissues lubricated and cleansed- keeps the stomach lining hydrated. With balanced stomach acid and mucus there is no ESOPHAGEAL INFLAMMATION or INDIGESTION either. Hyperacidity is very rare in our culture especially with the western diets we consume.

It makes more sense to me that it is rather the absence of these 2 necessary chemical compounds that allows ulcers to form. It is actually LOW hydrochloric acid that seems to be the culprit. Low acid leaves the stomach lining exposed, allowing pathogens to harbour there.

Ask me how to help heal your stomach and improve your digestion so you can get back to eating food comfortably and thereby improving your over all health. Contact me here on fb at Katherine Nelson Herbal Consultations or via email at katherineofnelson2@outlook.com.

PLANTAR FASCIITIS / HEEL SPURS are debilitating. Not being able to, literally, stand on your own 2 feet without searing pain is, also literally, agonizing.

You live on liver threatening doses of Tylenol, Aspirin or Advil. You have even tried Motrin.

You tolerate and live with this pain because you have no choice, you need to use your feet, all of the time.
But know this, you do not have to live in pain.

The powers that be vacillate between inflammation being the cause or tiny little tears in the tissue.

Regardless of what the cause may be, what I hear is dehydration and lack of lubrication, the age-old problem with the human vessel.

Most allopathic methods of physical and steroid therapy would benefit greatly if these issues of dryness were addressed and rectified, in addition with much needed therapy.

If you are tired of hobbling around and would like pain free feet drop me a line here on fb at Katherine Nelson Herbal Consultations or email me at katherineofnelson2@outlook.com.
