| Throughout nature it is apparent that species will |
| change their behaviours/diet based on the season |
| that they are in. Bears and other hibernating |
| animals prepare for the winter by eating more food |
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
| to store as fat, birds migrate in the fall, and humans...well humans |
| seem to continue what they are doing like nothing has changed! |
| |
| The fact is, as the earth shifts into different seasons, our behaviours, |
| nutrition, and outlook on health should change as well. In the spring |
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
| there are outbreaks of allergies, and the gloomy nature of the rain and clouds can add to |
| the increased depression. Knowing this, it would make sense for doctors and patients to |
| focus more on these areas of concern in the spring. In the summer our health shifts to |
| UV ray damage, heatstroke, and dehydration, whereas the winter brings about problems |
| of the flu, weight gain, and dry skin. Fall also has its own setof particular concerns, |
| vaccines, migraines, and digestive issues being some of them. If we as a society are |
| going to be serious about health we need to strike to adapt with each season – let’s |
| change with change! |
