ARE HEMP AND MARIJUANA THE SAME?
For years hemp has been confused with its illegal cousin. With the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, however, America will see a resurgence in hemp agriculture and health benefi ts from phytocannabinoids. Furthermore, UltraCell’s CBD provides health benefi ts free from THC, the main psychoactive compound in marijuana.

WHAT MAKES OUR PRODUCTS DIFFERENT?


Amy Turner Unlike other hemp oils that draw upon only isolated portions of the hemp plant, TURNER WELLNESS DFW UltraCell is derived using full-spectrum hemp oil extract, known as cannabidiol, or CBD. While CBD has known health benefi ts, the reality is that other CBD-isolate products cannot benefi t the body like our full-spectrum hemp oil, which utilizes all parts of the hemp plant and its phytocannabinoids. UltraCell contains over 400 biologically active compounds, including CBD and an entourage of other cannabinoids, fl avonoids, terpenes, vitamins, fatty acids and minerals. By utilizing all aspects of the hemp plant in its natural state, UltraCell creates an environment where the natural compounds work together to create a synergistic effect. When it comes to UltraCell, the true sum of the whole is greater than the parts. UltraCell Scan for more info makes the power of the hemp plant fully available, the way that nature intended.
PUTTING YOUR MIND AT EASE... Easier said than done, right? 2020 has been a rough one for the human race as a whole, and many of us have yet to mentally process the tidal wave of emotions associated with this crazy year. If emotions are not dealt with, it can eventually take a toll on our physical health as well.

Putting things in Perspective:
Limiting the time we spend watching the news, engaged in social media, and focusing on tragedy doesn’t mean we don’t care or that we are putting our heads in the sand. It’s OK to step away long enough to give our hearts a break and process for our own well-being. Christine Walker
The following are just a few quick tips for our mental health:
GRATITUDE IS A GAME-CHANGER – Thinking about the people and things that are good in our lives makes us grateful and gives us perspective. EVERY CLOUD HAS A SILVER LINING - Choose to see the good in situations and people. LAUGH OFTEN - Humor goes a long way to manage stress, release endorphins, and it gives us an outlet to ‘feel’ happiness. DO YOUR BEST - Manage situations within your control to the best of your ability, then give yourself permission to ‘let it go.’ (cue Frozen song here!) GET IN TOUCH WITH NATURE – Feel the warm sun on your face, take a walk, sit on your porch and watch the sunrise and sunset.
Most of all, remember that you are not alone. #Inthistogether

I’M GAINING WEIGHT, and I’m Worried That I Have a Thyroid Problem...

This is something I hear a lot among new people who come to see me. They then say, “Well I had my thyroid checked, and it was normal.” Well… what exactly did you have checked? The various tests of thyroid function that you have run can make all the difference. When we test thyroid function, we run a panel that consists of four tests. What are they and why do you need four?
THYROID STIMULATING HORMONE
Olga Cortez, M.D CROSS ROADS The fi rst test is a TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) test. This hormone is
HORMONAL HEALTH produced by your pituitary gland and stimulates the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone. When your thyroid gland is not working well, your thyroid hormone level goes down. Your pituitary detects this and starts to release more TSH hormone to stimulate your thyroid gland to produce more thyroid hormone. Therefore, as thyroid function goes down, TSH goes up. TSH is the standard thyroid screening test, BUT not the only one for us.
TOTAL T4
Your thyroid gland produces a thyroid hormone called T4, which goes into the blood stream and is converted to T3.

FREE T3
This is the active thyroid hormone in your blood stream. It affects energy, weight, metabolism, hair, nails, skin, body temperature, periods, digestive issues and many other bodily functions.
TPO ANTIBODY
This test checks for Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies. What are those? Antibodies are made by the immune system to fi ght off infections. Antibodies are normal. Unfortunately, there are some folks who make antibodies against their thyroid glands. This is a condition called Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. Unless you specifi cally test for this, there is no way to know whether or not you have it. So as part of my thyroid screen, I test this on everyone.
There are many other thyroid tests out there that I run, but as a standard, these are the thyroid tests I run on everyone; the above four are my panel. So, if you suspect you may have a thyroid problem, ask for the four abovementioned tests. We would be happy to check them for you and let you know where you stand with regards to your thyroid function and what your options are.
