No disease works in isolation. It\u2019s always a sign that there is something\u00a0underlying we need to deal with.<\/p>\n<p>Over 60% of people with Type 2 Diabetes, for example, have high blood pressure. The majority also have high cholesterol and\u00a0are overweight. These conditions so often (but not always) go together. This is pretty well known.<\/p>\n<p>The connection between <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/bloodpressure\">high blood pressure<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/erectile\/\">erectile dysfunction<\/a> may however surprise you even more. A study published in the<em> Journal of Urology<\/em> revealed that 68% of men with high blood pressure also suffered with some degree of ED.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/neckpain\">Chronic neck pain<\/a> has been connected to the development of Alzheimer\u2019s later on in life. So too, has high blood pressure, <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/defeat-diabetes\/\">type 2 diabetes<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/arthritis\/\">arthritis<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/headaches\">migraine<\/a> and many other conditions.<\/p>\n<p>At Blue Heron Health News, we have several writers and natural health researchers who offer guides for many of these conditions. All of us use somewhat different approaches and methods. One thing\u00a0we\u2019ve noticed is how often when people are focusing on one condition, it automatically helps with other related, or sometimes seemingly unrelated conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Jodi Knapp, for example, has an amazingly effective guide to <a href=\"http:\/\/blueheronhealthnews.com\/defeat-diabetes\/\">tackle type 2 diabetes<\/a>. Hundreds of people have completely healed their diabetes using her methods. To their surprise, as they followed her advice, their blood pressure also often goes down.\u00a0Additionally, \u00a0cholesterol levels improve too.<\/p>\n<p>The same thing can be said about all of our methods. They are focused on one condition but improve various health issues. \u00a0(Well, \u00a0isn\u2019t that a pleasant difference from the side effects of traditional medications!)<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t say this to plug our programs, but to make a point:<\/p>\n<h3>All health issues have the same underlying cause!<\/h3>\n<p>I like to call it stress. But that word may be misleading because most of us connect the word stress to emotional stress. Whereas stress can be any kind of push or attack against\u00a0us that causes strain.<\/p>\n<p>And\u00a0that is\u00a0only half the story. The other side of the coin is what I call \u201clack of defense\u201d or \u201clack of energy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Let me give you an example\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The supermarkets are filled with heavily processed food. Many people get over 90% of their daily diet from these processed foods.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s a frozen microwave meal or a McDonalds hamburger, these meals are loaded with all kinds of chemicals. Our bodies are not designed to process these chemicals. This causes physical stress in our digestive system.<\/p>\n<p>As if this wasn\u2019t bad enough, there is absolutely no nutritional value in these processed foods. Even if they have some vegetables or meat in them, the real energy has been processed out of them. This causes a lack of defense to deal with the chemicals.<\/p>\n<p>The only thing that\u2019s easy for the body to do is to process the sugars and fats out of the fast food and load it into the arteries or store it as body fats. This causes the blood sugar spikes for short while, causing physical stress again. The fat adds\u00a0to weight gain that causes\u00a0more physical stress. The fat also clogs cell receptors causing more stress and leading to type 2 diabetes. WOW!<\/p>\n<p>Now this is only the food\u2026<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, we have to deal with all kinds of &#8220;sensory stress.&#8221;\u00a0 Studies have, for example, shown that living close to loud traffic noise dramatically increases the level of stress hormones the body releases. Fast moving objects (like cars), TV, loud fighting, etc. all add\u00a0to these sensory stress levels. And because we don\u2019t have the nutrition from the food we eat, we don\u2019t have the same energy to deal with this.<\/p>\n<p>Add to this the disagreement we just had with our spouse, our boss, our kids or\u00a0our friends. Add on to that money worries, divorce, death of someone close to us, or\u00a0having to move.\u00a0 Add on to that the stupid politician\u00a0who couldn\u2019t do his or her\u00a0job or that rude customer service representative\u00a0who didn\u2019t want to help us. Add on to\u00a0that the sexual problems all of this is causing.\u00a0 Then,\u00a0we have an overload of emotional stress on top of everything.<\/p>\n<p>As all of this different type of stress is building up, our blood pressure is rising, our cholesterol is rising, our weight is increasing, our blood sugar level is constantly too high and we have\u00a0chronic pain. Now our physical, sensory, mental and emotional stress is also becoming chronic. Our bodies are constantly overloaded with stress hormones.<\/p>\n<p>And then we begin worrying about our health!<\/p>\n<p>The worst part is that\u00a0as our stress level increases, our brain is wired to be in constant fight or flight mode. This makes our problem solving skills drop\u00a0close to zero. So we can\u2019t tackle our problems like we used to.<\/p>\n<p>Pufh!<\/p>\n<p>Under these conditions (and they of course do not have to be so severe) we have no energy left to fight off any kind of health threat that attacks us.<\/p>\n<p>Every person has several hundred cancers developing in our bodies every year.\u00a0 Our immune system fights\u00a0them off and gets rid of them. We are also exposed to thousands of threatening bacteria and viruses every day and our immune system most often kills them before we get sick. But,\u00a0if we don\u2019t have any energy left to fight it off&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, there is a lot you can do. In fact, anything that you do to improve your health will benefit all other health issues you may experience.<\/p>\n<p>Here is where I\u2019d begin:<\/p>\n<p>1) Improve your diet. Throw away most of the processed food and fill your fridge with fresh vegetables (80%) and organic meat and complete carbohydrates. Try to eat as much raw, fresh food as you can. This will reduce the stress from chemicals and increase your energy level to fight off diseases.<\/p>\n<p>2) Reduce emotional stress as much as possible. Can you get away with less or are you sweating the small stuff? In every situation remember that if you\u00a0 are reacting, you are attacking yourself.<\/p>\n<p>3) Spend at least a few minutes a day doing nothing in a quiet place with little sensory stimulation. This helps recharge the batteries.<\/p>\n<p>4) Work out for an hour per day, six days a week. This doesn\u2019t have to be a hard workout. Walking has been shown to be just as beneficial as jogging.<\/p>\n<p>These things all work together. You\u2019ll find that when you eat well, it\u2019s easier to work out and relax. You\u2019ll have more energy and therefore not be as reactive. You\u2019ll also be equipped to\u00a0 better deal with stressful events and\u00a0so they won\u2019t be as damaging.<\/p>\n<p>What I\u2019ve found to work the quickest is to give the body and mind what I call a\u00a0\u201cFocused Break.\u201d\u00a0 A &#8220;focused break&#8221;\u00a0kind of hits the &#8220;reboot&#8221; button and helps the body to\u00a0start anew.

Not only do they benefit\u00a0from gaining relief for the disease they are focusing on, but they gain benefits for their overall health and often unrelated conditions that they had no hope to ever cure.<\/p>\n<p>You can find all of our health guides on the right hand side of this page.
