Still Counting Calories & Carbs?

We love to measure things. We hope by counting Nutrition Facts we can know how GOOD a food is for us. But how effective is it? What about the vast nutritional gap between the three realms of food: Organic vs. "Conventional" vs. GMO? What's the effect of chemicals on complete nutrition? Obviously, this will vary depending on the type of seed, minerals and microbes in the soil, growing conditions, and freshness of the food. Ha Ha! Did you know that calorie and carb counts are based on average ...

Why Would Anyone Censor the Web?

I'm passionately interested in health, and I use the internet for research. While I don't consider all web info reliable, many studies and research articles are fine sources.

One of cholesterol's roles in the body is to travel to inflamed areas to repair tiny breaks or lesions that irritate tissues, internal or external. For example, cholesterol makes a hard scab on ...

Did you get to WALK and LISTEN in NATURE today?

Some days require extraordinary patience. We each have our own journey in this fast-changing world. As you know, I tend to push to "accomplish" stuff. But some days, nothing works. Nothing feels right. So, maybe it's telling me to chill out. Maybe it's ok to plan the day. But then we have to LISTEN to see what is needed in the moment, what is appropriate in the circumstances. Following a plan rigidly can make everything get tied up in knots. To take a walk in nature and just sit there ...

Do You Drink Enough Water? How to Improve Your Absorption

Most of us are slightly dehydrated. Aging is synonymous to dehydration. Lack of H2O shows up immediately in sagging skin, sluggish brain function, and especially in your moods.
