Freedom To Feel Fabulous
Have you been hearing that carbs are bad? Bad carbs, bad food.
I’m Dr. Keesha Ewers, and I’ve helped thousands of people understand what is the right mix of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins for their individual body type.
TIP: Carbs are not bad; although, every individual body type needs their own unique balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. [Read more…] about Where Do you Find Healthy Carbs?
Have you had trauma in your childhood? I’m Dr. Keesha Ewers. I help people understand the meaning of trauma, and the impact that it has on your adult life.
One of the things that people say to me is “No, I didn’t have any trauma. I had a really good childhood.” I would like you to understand that everybody has had trauma; it just depends on where your bar is set.
You can have capital-T trauma, or you can have lower-case-t trauma.
Capital-T trauma is going to be sexual abuse, domestic violence, physical, psychological, verbal abuse, neglect; all the scenarios that were described in the adverse childhood experiences study that was done between 1995 and 1997 that I wrote about it in my book, “Solving the Autoimmune Puzzle.”
The lower-case-t traumas, are going to be situations like failing a test, getting picked last for the baseball team, having a set of friends on the playground one day and then having them all turn against you the next day, being in a motor vehicle accident, having someone that you love to die, including a pet. These are all very traumatic experiences, that’s what gets locked into your body. [Read more…] about The Impact on Your Health from Stressful Childhood Events.
I often hear my patients come to me and tell me that they’re constipated. They complain that they’re having trouble losing weight. Furthermore, they’re having trouble with hormone balance. Indeed, they’re having trouble with energy.
I’m Dr. Keesha Ewers, I’ve had the privilege of being able to help thousands of people with these very problems.
A “hot tip” to resolve these situations, is fiber. This question I get over and over:
Where do you get enough fiber and how much do you need? I want you to have about 50 grams of fiber a day. [Read more…] about Where do you get your fiber from?
Cutting Sugar Cravings?
I’m a recovering sugar addict. I have a lot of patients who are recovering sugar addicts. I used to run long miles, marathons, even, to control my weight so I could have extra brownies the night before.
I’m Dr. Keesha Ewers and I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of people overcome their sugar addiction.
Why is sugar bad for you? It causes you to crave more sugar. It causes inflammation in the body. It’s very addictive. It effects the dopamine, the brain chemical that is involved with addiction. It effects your gut and the little critters that live in there that are supposed to help you maintain a good mood, a good memory, and your weight.
Learn more about how to kick sugar cravings but a quick hot tip right now, check your labels. Every four grams of carbohydrate on your label are equal to one teaspoon of sugar. Start noticing how much you are ingesting without even knowing. [Read more…] about Cutting Sugar Cravings
