Dear John,
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2012 and
best of wishes for a prosperous year. Here at US Wellness
we have set a few goals for the new year in order to better
serve you - our customers. We truly appreciate all of
your patronage during 2011 and look forward to providing high
quality grass-fed products for another year.
What are your goals for the new
year? Too many of us make the same resolutions every year
- to eat better, to exercise more, to lose weight before
summer...and we usually fail within a month. This year
many of us have decided to set one particular goal and write
down the plan to achieve it. In our past several
newsletters we have tried to offer new ideas on how to improve
health and wellness in 2012. So if you need some new
ideas, here are some article recaps:
For more ideas, try Mark's Daily Apple's
30-Day Challenge, go
Paleo, join a
CrossFit gym,
support
our troops, donate to a
local school, go green,
support a
local farmer, become a
better
cook, or remove toxins from your home - read Dr. Morrison's
article
below to find out how! We'd love to hear your unique
resolutions for the new year, and we'll pay you to share!
Head over to
Facebook and share your New Year's
resolutions and one lucky reader will win a $100 US Wellness
gift certificate. Winner will be drawn this Friday,
January 6, so don't wait!
One of the best ways to kick off a new
year is to consider your diet. Your health, mood and
weight can all improve simply by removing sugary, processed
foods from your diet. We've tried to make it easy to
stock up on clean meal ideas this week - the
Short Rib bulk box is
on sale, along
with the versatile
Coulotte Steak and for a great snack try
the
Turkey Jerky Sticks!
If saving money is on the agenda for the
new year be sure to take advantage of our bulk
discounts. For every 40 lbs you order, we'll
automatically take $25.00 off your total order. So if
your order weighs at least 80 lbs we'll take $50.00 off!
No matter what your new year resolutions
may be, we have the products, resources and savings to keep you
motivated and achieve success in your health and wellness goals
and we are honored for the opportunity to be part of your
success.
New Year's
Wishes,
John, Lee Ann, Tressa, Jennifer and
Amanda on behalf of the farm families of U.S. Wellness

Question and Answer

Hello Dr.
Serrano,
I have been Paleo for 5 months and my new 'diet' includes
much more red meat ("organic") and shrimp than previous. Oddly
I had high cholesterol (don't remember the numbers) when I ate
less red meat.
Now - that I have kicked it
up somewhat, how can I be sure that my cholesterol will not
become elevated-which concerns me. Several Paleo colleagues
have responded but I have yet to hear a definitive answer. Your
response is welcomed.
-Rich
P.S. I take a daily supplements of garlic, C B-complex, E
and fish oil
_____________________________________
Dear Rich, God is awesome, so the
body is awesome. By adding more fat to your diet, your
body doesn't need to make as much cholesterol as your body
needs, so the body machinery for making cholesterol is turned
down. The extra fat in the diet provides the cholesterol
it needs and uses it for hormones, enzymes, structures, joints,
vitamins, etc. Keep eating the way you are eating now - it is a
way of life. People
that eat low fat usually are fat because the body requires fat
- but doesn't get the fat it needs, just hydrolyzed junk - too
many omega-6s and it has to save it for the wrong reasons.
Good Luck,
Dr. Serrano

Eliminating
Toxins in Your Home
By: Jeffrey Morrison, MD
An excerpt
from Cleanse Your
Body, Clear Your Mind
While it's nearly impossible to affect
the majority of environmental toxins found in our air, water,
and food supply, it's easy to control what we bring into our
homes. Unfortunately, many of our homes are just as
polluted as the outdoors. Yet by recognizing the
potential problems and making lifestyle changes that address
them, you can create a safe, nontoxic haven in your home.
Indoor Air Pollutants
Believe it or not, indoor air can be even more polluted than
outdoor air, even in the largest industrialized cities.
This is very important to recognize because we spend as much as
90% of our time indoors. Additionally, the people who are
the most susceptible to symptoms caused by indoor pollutants -
the young, elderly, and chronically ill- are the ones most
likely to spend the majority of their time inside.
Indoor air is dangerous for two primary reasons: pollutants
and poor ventilation. Indoor air pollution can come from
home heating and cooling systems, tobacco and cigarette smoke,
building material outgassing, asbestos, mold from water damage,
furniture made from processed woods, household cleaners,
personal care products, and air fresheners, as well as from
outdoor sources, that can become trapped indoors. Many
times the air is not significantly affected by many one of
these sources, but when multiple sources are added together,
their individual affects can be multiplied and we can become
sick.
Ventilation is an issue because new houses
are built to be literally air-tight, in compliance with
building codes aimed at reducing the costs of heating and
cooling. While we're saving money, air pollutants
multiply in our poorly ventilated homes like garbage in a
wastebasket.
One way to improve indoor air quality
without opening the windows and letting new toxins in is by
using an air purifier that can remove pollutants like pollen,
dust, chemicals, and bacteria. There are many different
types on the market, each with useful characteristics...
