  Osteoporosis Shakedown: What the Medical Industry Is Not Telling You

Taking an integrative approach to treating osteoporosis (and osteopenia) may be a smart idea. The most common pharmaceuticals prescribed for these conditions, bisphosphonates, come with a host of mild to serious side effects, including spontaneous fractures. Adding omega-3 foods to an anti-inflammatory diet, and incorporating weight bearing exercises and stress-reduction practices show promising results.

  Examining Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation and IV Vitamin Therapies: What Are They and What Can They Do For You?

IV vitamin therapy and ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) are in the throws of research, being examined for their health preservation (prevention) and disease-based treatment impacts. As an adjunctive healing modality, you may want to dip your feet in, and start with a “Myers Cocktail” at your local wellness clinic.

  Oral Care at Home: Natural Alternatives to Big Chem Products and Protocols

It may be common to not pay too much attention to your mouth unless issues or concerns arise. The reason this is a mistake is because the health of your oral microbiome (your mouth’s ecosystem) is intrinsically connected to the health of the rest of your body. Infections in teeth or gums left unattended can lead to systemic health imbalances. Prevention is easy with natural, home-based practices you can integrate now as part of your morning and evening routines.

  History of Genetically Engineered (GE) Food and the Introduction of GE Soil Bacteria

You wouldn’t be the first person to feel confused about the difference between GMOs (genetically modified organisms) and glyphosate. In fact, the two are intrinsically connected. In simple terms, glyphosate is an herbicide/pesticide that is sprayed onto crops, including those in the human/animal food supply, to keep critters and weeds away. Because glyphosate, a.k.a. “Roundup®” is so incredibly strong (and toxic), genetically engineering (modifying, manipulating …) the crop into a new version, enables it to endure and survive the heavy chemical application.

During the second half of September 2024, AVFCA brought awareness to specific observance days by sharing our original stories that matched these themes:

National Centenarian’s Day: “Salutogenesis: Evaluating Your Health Holistically Through a Fresh Perspective"

Salutogenesis is a cycle of healing that takes into account resilience to stress as a predictor of your health. Its contrast to modern medicine’s pathogenesis approach is highlighted, and ideas are presented to help you incorporate salutogenesis into your life, specifically by improving your sense of coherence (SOC). http://tinyurl.com/salutogenesis1 

National Family Health and Fitness Day USA: “Nitrates and Nitrites: Synthetic and Naturally-Occurring Chemical Compounds Added to Processed Meats”

Processed meats, such as bacon, salami, and beef jerky go through a process called “curing,” to ensure freshness and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Adding nitrates/nitrites to the procedure is typical, and comes with health risks, even when they are “naturally-occurring.” http://tinyurl.com/nitrates-nitrites 

Our team also reads hundreds of articles each week, and those of interest are shared on our social media platforms.  However, once or twice a week, our team reads an article that is profound or shares a perspective that is new or from an expert that AVFCA feels should be highlighted.  These articles are shared on our Substack.
