An Apple a Day…

Health is a wide topic that can be discussed from diverse angles and approaches in life. Right from conception, the mother’s diet and habits determine the growing fetus disposition at birth. The likes of foods that the pregnant mother yearns for may be projected in the appetite of the baby after birth, during growth and in maturity. This, the author observed from a personal experience in her life journey as a mom and a parent. The pregnancy that made her crave for pineapples has attestation of the same in the manifestation of an appetite the current adult progeny has for “pineapplesâ€! Oh, talk of pica for frozen milk and just cool items in pregnancy, and that defines the likes of the sibling to the pineapple lover.

The author from this experience and their professional adventures as an herbal remedy and a nutraceutical scientifically oriented designer, leans towards nutritional epigenetics and strongly advocates that the human body’s comfort and beauty are determined by the diet, and supplements taken thereof. This justifies the old saying that, “an apple a day keeps off the doctor!â€. Here it’s not about the naughty boy who broke the doctor’s window screen rushing to their mom, for an apple, or the young prince hoping to catch the attention of that princess who is a medical doctor for his queen avoiding apples…no! It’s about each one of us in their health and beauty errand coming to the realization of interaction of nature and nurture for their wellbeing. It’s about stopping to blame the bad genes in your ancestors and dive into health advisory centers on nutritional epigenetic. It’s also about accepting that the pains and aches in our body are not just to be pacified by cooling the pain but be interpreted as cries of a hungry tissue, unhappy and gloomy cells!

So, at Kiasili Holistic Care, we address the appetite of the human body as evidenced by the expressions and emphasis in the various body systems. Every individual has needs specific to their internal milieu, and at such Kiasili Holistic Care listens to their client’s health & beauty story, and from there work with them to design a nutraceutical product or skin care product that will be supplemental to address the cries of their system(s). We listen to our client’s concerns and respect their values. Detailed medical history, recent laboratory results, current medications, dietary habits etc. are discussed to ensure clarity and safety of our clients. We only stick to evidence-based nutraceutical and supplemental health & beauty products and source our extracts from FDA approved supplies.

We use three ringed circles to explain wellness.

The First Circle

We do advise ourselves and our clients to start by changing their dietary habits if they are noted to be out of alignment to attainment of optimal health. This is the inner circle…eat vegetables of diversified colors, fruits, nuts, grains, proteins …individualized for each person’s age, activities, and personalized needs. And increase physical activities.

The Second Circle

The second circle we advise is inclusion of medicinal foods in the daily diet but in amounts congruent to the food’s strength. This is the likes of garlic, ginger, turmeric, cayenne, cinnamon, cardamon, chives, rosemary…and on the list goes. Kiasili Holistic care has specialized products blended for satisfaction of this realm in spices and herbal teas. Currently orders can be discussed via email to [email protected]

The Third Circle

Another step in the role of eating your apple, is use of herbal remedies and nutraceutical to answer the woes of the barking dog, the unhappy cells and tissues. When dogs see a thug trying to assess the owner’s property, they bark. Some owners wanting to sleep better throw a bone to pacify the barking dog, but no sooner than the thug reappears the dog barks again. Yes, we all do this to our bodies. That pain in the joints, in the back, how often we pacify it with a painkiller! At Kiasili Holistic Care Products we advocate for the screaming unhappy cells by addressing the internal milieu. We have a lifelong studying journey with Eclectic School of Herbal Medicine since the birth of our company in 2016 and we have learnt the art of herbal medicine and their place in health and wellness. We share from our herbal cabinet to yours and educate our clients on their role of these remedies in wellness. At Kiasili Holistic Care our clients are educated that these products are supplemental, and we have no claims on them healing. The body was created in a way to heal and repair itself if offered the right elements and the third circle in this discussion attempts to address issues of unhappy cells and tissues that keep barking like a dog because the thug (abnormal inflammation) is advancing their attacks.

The Fourth Circle

The fourth circle is beyond eating an apple! We at Kiasili Holistic Care Products in all respects always advice our clients when the timing is beyond the third circle, and they need to see their primary care doctors. There is a grace period for the apple! Clients have a choice for integrated care but at Kiasili Holistic Care Products LLC, we discern when an issue is beyond complementary alternative medicine and encourage going to the fourth circle. We also respect the decisions of our clients if they have no part for complementary alternative medicine care.
