Many people are taught that high blood pressure is caused by salt alone.
But the truth is far more complex than that.
Salt plays a role, yes, but for most people the real drivers sit deeper in the body. They involve how flexible your blood vessels are, how your metabolism handles food, how your nervous system carries tension, how well you sleep, and how your kidneys interpret your daily habits.
This is why high blood pressure is known as the silent killer.
Most people feel completely normal while these internal shifts build over years. There are rarely early symptoms....
Hair Loss: Causes, Symptoms, and Natural Ways to Stop Thinning Hair
Hair loss, thinning hair, and sudden shedding often feel personal, yet they are rarely random. Your hair is one of the most sensitive mirrors of your inner biology. When hormones shift, nutrients fall behind, stress rises, or the body feels unsafe, the follicles respond long before other symptoms show up. Hair is not failing you. It is reflecting you.
Understanding this changes everything. It turns hair loss from a confusing experience into a meaningful sign. Many of the causes are modifiable, and when your internal environment stabilizes, hair often follows. This is the heart of...
Natural Solutions for Hypothyroidism: How to Support a Slow Thyroid and Feel Energized Again
Tired, cold, or foggy — even when your blood tests look “normal”?
Your thyroid might not be failing, it might just be reacting to how you live.
Here’s how to restore your energy naturally, step by step.
Your Thyroid: The Engine Behind Your Energy
Your thyroid is like your body’s internal thermostat, quietly setting the pace for your energy, warmth, and metabolism.
When it slows down, every system feels it. Your focus fades, your mornings get heavier, and even your mood starts to dim.
But here’s the part most people never hear: a slow thyroid doesn’t always mean...
Low Blood Pressure Symptoms, Causes & How to Raise It Naturally
Most people worry about high blood pressure.
But if you often feel light-headed when standing, tired after meals, or foggy in the afternoon, you might have the opposite problem: low blood pressure, also called hypotension.
It sounds healthy, even ideal, yet for many people it steals energy, focus, and drive.
Often, people feel there can be nothing done about it, while your body is actually communicating that something deeper needs attention.
Recognizing the Signs
Low blood pressure symptoms are often subtle. You may feel:
Dizziness when you stand up
Cold hands and...
Symptoms of Low Progesterone (and What to Do About It)
Many women live for years with subtle hormonal imbalances without realizing how much they can change. Low progesterone is one of those hidden disruptors. It does not always show up as a disease, but it quietly shapes how you feel, sleep, recover, and relate to your body. The good news is that this is not a fixed state. Once you understand what is behind it, you can start to rebuild balance naturally.
What Progesterone Actually Does
Progesterone is more than a fertility hormone. It is your body’s calm and steady signal. It keeps estrogen in check, supports deep sleep, soothes the...

Bye bye UTI – The power of Uva Ursi, D-Mannose & Cranberry Extract!
I’m telling you. This combo is powerful at stopping a urinary tract infection from brewing into something more serious that requires antibiotics.With travel and the stress of the launch of B Better, combined with a lack of hydration (I haven’t been carrying around a water bottle), my immune system for sure took a hit and allowed a brewing infection.I brought all of my “first aid” supplements with me on this trip, but I did not expect a brewing UTI… haven’t had one since my 20s. So what did I do? I researched health food companies in my area and called...
What Your Stool Color Means
As gross or taboo as it may seem, poop, stool, #2, or whatever you like to call it, is an essential part of our physiology. We all do it (hopefully), and it provides a significant amount of information about our gut health, and therefore our overall health. So step 1, start looking! Ask your kids to look too; and to tell you if it’s not brown. Step 2. Know the warning signs.⚠️ ❤️Black and bright red could indicate internal bleeding, so do seek medical attention. But there are some other less scary reasons for it:•large amounts of black...
Remember… “SIBO” is a symptom, not a root cause!
If you haven’t heard of SIBO, it stands for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth.
It’s basically bacteria in the wrong place. ♀️
If given the opportunity, bacteria from the large intestine can creep up into the small intestine and ferment the simple sugars and starches from food causing bloating, belching, gas, abdominal pain, cramping, constipation and diarrhea.
Treatment typically involves natural anti-microbials and/or antibiotics like Rifaximin but unfortunately the rate of recurrence is oh-so common because SIBO is just a symptom, not the root...
