Essential to Health

When did you first realize that nutrition is essential to health? I didn’t really put the two together until 2014 when I was in my late 60’s.  And if it was in the “news” before, I guess I just missed it or didn’t pay much attention.  Not on my radar. Sure, I grew up with

ADULTS NEED TO PLAY

“As adults, many of us envy how easy it is for kids to have fun and find joy in almost anything they do.  But the truth is, we ourselves have the same opportunities that kids do to enjoy every day.”   This lead line in Rocio Ramos’ blog caught my eye. (She posts on the Youngevity

Overcommitted?

“Time is a precious commodity.  Be sure to invest it wisely.”  So says Henry Blackaby – and he has identified my days well – just see what fits for you in his description: These days we are bombarded with opportunities that entice us to invest our time and energy.  Each day the voices of urgency

Back Off You Biting Bugs 

It’s that time of year again – and I am back in my least-favorite position.   Don’t know if you are like me, but I am usually the first in the crowd chosen by those annoying gnats or biting bugs like mosquitoes and even horseflies (they have a stinging bite). So I am pulling out my

Traveling?  Consider this…

Maybe you already know this and have it handled.  But if you don’t, I think you would really appreciate knowing about it. Do you travel out of the country?  Or have plans to do so?  Or do you expect to go in the future? If so, have you dealt with “traveler’s diarrhea”?   Ugh, Candy,

Healthy Aging

An article caught my eye when it mentioned growing up in the 1950s — I can relate to that period.  But at that time, I was focused on growing older only in terms of getting to high school (it’s all relative, right?).   And, of course, the huge importance placed on reaching 21 was the next

AI is like “All Y’All”

OK – AI is all the rage.  Yet I am feeling hesitantly skeptical.  Maybe you have dug into it – or not – and you see great potential.  Or great danger.  Well, like it or not, it is here and spreading wildly.   AI = artificial intelligence.  Official definition – the ability of a computer or

The Healthy Alternative Author Has More….

Recently, after blogging about sugar (“By Any Other Name”), I shared a couple of video clips from my interview of friend and author, Nicolette Dumke.  When allergies threatened the health and happiness of not only her early life but that of her son Joel, she set to work creating food recipes to work around allergies

There IS a Healthy Alternative

A few weeks ago I blogged about sugar (“By Any Other Name”…click HERE to read it).  Actually, I was focused on the “added sugar” problems and truly encouraged reading labels in order to eliminate or highly reduce the fructose in added sugars which is linked to some major health issues.  Not to mention how toxic
