Dear Reader,
Mental illness is foremost on our minds
today due to it getting close to being an
epidemic in proportion. It is worth focusing
on the teenagers of society, as it is a tough
gig especially now with the ability to
cyber bully and even use sites that make it
possible to be anonymous to bully others.
Teenagers are stressing their brains
more now than in living memory. They are
exposed to excess blue light and spend that
precious time soaking up the excess EMF
potentially heating up the brain if they are
using devises near to their head, and loads
of them not getting enough sunlight.
When I am out and about, I use an Air
tube as a way of substantially reducing
EMF when on mobile phones. When one
constantly overtaxes the nervous system
one can weaken the immune system which
is key for all regeneration throughout the
body. How can the orthodoxy keep saying
we get enough nutrition and don’t need
supplements by eating a good diet? Knowing
that most children are only getting ~10%
of their required daily fruit and vegetable
intake, they need to stay healthy. Even if
they were, they have huge demands for
all nutrients to cover growth of developing
hormones, the muscular skeletal system and
the brain. These high emotional stress levels
can burn through Vitamin C, B group vitamin,
Zinc and Magnesium tenfold plus, over and
above good diet just to support the adrenals
which can easily become exhausted.
No wonder Glandular Fever is rampant
among teenagers at school and many are
knocked for six having ongoing fatigue for
months and years after. For some, this is
also a recipe for contracting Chronic Fatigue,
Hypothyroidism and susceptibility for other
opportunistic infections.
My children grew up in a less stressful
time and got Tangy C and Super B liquid each
day before breakfast and a Zinc/Magnesium
drink when they came home. My son had
one round of vaccinations 40 years ago and
then the penny dropped for me as it took
quite some time to get his immune system
back to competency. My two daughters
were not vaccinated and had very robust
immunity right through their childhood and
teenage years. I am happy to say, none of
8 Complete Health
them got glandular fever however, there was
still plenty of it moving through the teens in
the 90’s. We were never frightened by an
infection because we knew how to safely
take Vitamin C up to bowel tolerance to
super charge the immune system.
These days I am more in favour of
supercharging immunity with Diatomic
Oxygen and Formula 5 drops in every glass
of water for the next 24 to 48 hours. Add
3-5ml of Diatomic Oxygen. It kicks nearly
every other therapy into gear, including
herbal medicine and much loved olive leaf
extract, so it is an amazing catalyst. Can
we take the risk by avoiding supplementing
our teenagers with these quintessential
nutrients? Nowadays teenagers have so
much EMF exposure to deal with it is a
frightening phenomenon. I believe by not
addressing each child’s individual nutritional
needs will be contributing to the increased
risk in childhood health challenges including
some cancers and possibly even mental
health issues.
We know that a deficiency of Zinc, B6
and Magnesium can inhibit a child’s ability
to concentrate in class and may even cause
them to be disruptive to others. When you
have a teenager that has homework to do
after school, they really need 5-10ml of
Super B liquid and a level teaspoon of Tangy
C in the one glass of water. This is ideally
taken before they start snacking and get
head down to study.
Zinc cannot work effectively without
B6 and Magnesium. Super B liquid contains
B6, Zinc and Tangy C contains Magnesium.
Super B liquid and Tangy C are very pleasing
on the palate with better absorption than
most tablets and more economical to use.
Super B contains high levels of inositol
and choline which helps boost cognitive
function.
If you have teenagers engaged in sport,
they may need a magnesium powder with
co-factors for better muscle energy and
recovery and Transmag topically. Teenagers
now more than ever have compromised
sleep with possible lower levels of Melatonin
being produced because of the excess blue
light. This combination of issues impact
their health and you may see greater mood
