Some of the things I have learned about fibromyalgia have been learned the hard way, because it started happening and I check with my wonderful support team, friends who have it, and find out that it’s quite common. I don’t know if it’s things that doctors feel uncomfortable telling you, because it’s not at all […]
I know that this fast seems pretty strict, honestly, I hope I can do it myself! I thought it might be helpful if we posted a few ideas for what you CAN eat, remember these are just ideas, eat what you want, within the guidelines of course! Breakfast oatmeal with berries, nuts, honey eggs, scrambled
2 15-oz cans lentils, drained and rinsed (about 3 cups cooked lentils if you don’t use canned) 1 tbsp minced garlic 1 1/4 tsp chili powder 1 tbsp ground cumin 1/2 tsp salt 3/4 tsp cinnamon 1-2 stevia packets, or 3-5 tsp sugar or sweetener of choice, or to taste 14 oz tomato sauce up
If you read one post this week, I hope this is it. When it comes to a stroke time is crucial, just as with a heart attack time is muscle, with a stroke it is brain cells. Early medical attention is important, as is early rehab. Most people who suffer from a stroke have a
This poster is just amazing! We have so many requests from people wanting to know what a detox is, why they should do it, and how to do it. This poster has it all and then some. In today’s society we need to give our bodies a rest from the harm we do on a
As I was doing research into wheat and wheat allergies to determine guidelines I learned a few things I did not know, so the guidelines will be stricter than what we have done before to make it effective. Many people are going gluten-free these days, I really don’t feel that’s necessary unless you are allergic
They are both healthy for you, but have slightly different health benefits. I had no idea chia seeds were for anything but growing cute critters! I cannot believe how many good things are in both, I use flax seed on a regular basis, have not found chia seeds in the store yet where I live,
This is so amazing and exciting! I remember my mom starting avocados this way when I was a kid. It’s the ultimate reuse/recycle project! If you can grow some of your own food, you control what’s in it, you know there are no chemicals in there. I am accumulating several pots and small dishes for
This is so awesome, I think when food is fun kids are more likely to eat it, the manufacturers of junk are well aware of this. The only way to combat this is to serve healthy delicious food in a way that makes it fun and appetizing, these veggie boats are a perfect example!
22 years ago today, January 27th, I gave birth to an 8#7oz baby boy, David Jack. He is the most amazing young man I have ever met. I was raised with only a sister so had never been around boys, raising the boychild has been a revelation! I don’t like to use only gender specific
This looks amazing, easy, and delicious. Unfortunately there are no amounts listed, but the picture is pretty self explanatory, I use most recipes as a guide myself, most of my cooking is done in a “little bit of this, little more of that” method… it works for me. If you try this before I do,
This poster is so awesome!! Quite often I see a new vegetable but am afraid to try it as I am not sure if I like it, this poster gives you an idea, it’s like friend suggestions for food! If you like celery, you may also like asparagus, chard, spinach and green beans. Such a
A study presented at the American Academy of Pain Medicine Annual Meeting touts the long-term and immediate benefits of physical conditioning to alleviate chronic pain. Dr. Amy M. Burleson, the study’s lead investigator, stated, “People with chronic pain don’t want to exercise — the main reason is that they are in so much pain, we
These amazing foods have been around a while, and may be forgotten in the rush to try the new great things in super foods. These selections are readily available, have many recipes easy to find, are affordable, and delicious. Give some old standbys some new flavor!
25 years ago, on January 25th, I gave birth to beautiful 7 # 8 oz baby girl. Her friends call her Crickette, her family calls her KK, her name is Khrystyana Frances-Ruth, for both of my great grandmothers that were alive when she was born, Christiana and Ruth, and for my godmother Frances, who passed
So you’re hungry, really hungry, but you had something extra today already or you don’t feel up to a workout so you are looking for something that will fill your belly, without a ton of calories. How about a cup of soup for 50 calories? You can eat 3 cups of popcorn for a total
They really are everywhere, in sunscreens, self-tanners, make-up, moisturizers, cleansers, beauty masks, and so much more. Just a few of the ones that are most dangerous and why. Keep this with you when you shop. Amazing poster!
I thought this was such a cool concept, I have made toilet bowl brush holders from plastic bottles, as well as crafts with the kids when they were younger, I really love the idea of making them into planters! These are a great and cheap way to send seedlings to friends for a house warming
