It is built around 5 seasons: spring, early summer, late summer, autumn and winter and as each season arrives, the health focus shifts.
In Autumn, traditional Chinese medicine focuses on the lungs and large intestines. Our lungs are responsible for taking in oxygen, and absorbing it into our blood while simultaneously expelling carbon dioxide. The large intestines are responsible for absorbing vitamins and nutrients. They both have the purpose of absorbing vital compounds that we need to survive.
When you put this into a modern medical context, it makes sense. Winter brings seasonal pathogens and cold weather. Improving our lung function helps us to fight pathogens, and improving our intestines helps us build nutritive reserves, all boosting our immunity to get through the winter.
There is something comforting and logical about respecting the past as we move into future seasons.
At Naturally Healthy we have a great range of products to help boost your immunity, support your lungs and nurture your intestines. One of these products is EXhale Immunity and Lung Health, and this coincidently has a Chinese name - Aihule 爱呼乐 . Check them out as we prepare for the winter months ahead ❄️

I didn't know what was wrong with me

Right from a young child I have always loved food; I loved gatherings because of the food. As I got older I would steal food and money to buy food. My life was all about food and if I wasn’t eating, I was thinking about eating and food.
I was very athletic at school and not terribly worried about my weight at that time. It was when I went into high school and the “beach girls” came to our high school that I started looking at the differences. They were brown, thin and seemed to be very popular with the boys. I watched them and what they ate. I started eating what they were eating at school, but would eat as much as possible at home.
I tried to fit in, but wasn’t able to make friends easily. I was obsessed about my weight and food by now and it drove me to exercise and diets. I went on my first diet when I was sixteen years old, I took herbal diet tablets, exercised like a person obsessed and I drank alcohol, smoked cigarettes and drank black coffee to control my weight. I lost five stone and got a lot of compliments about how I looked, but that didn’t stop the self-loathing and madness in my head. It didn’t matter how much weight I lost or how thin I was, I was obsessed about my body, how fat I was and how thin I wanted to be. My self-obsession and food controlled my life, and it was to get much worse as I got older.
