I have been consuming organic liquid turmeric daily for 20 years now. I swear that the reason I don’t have any Multiple Sclerosis related aches and pains is my daily dose of turmeric. Many of my fellow MS acquaintances, frequently reflect on their unfortunate MS related aches and pains. Why don’t I have pain? I […]

My Guilty Pleasure….dark chocolate.
I am on the Paleo diet now to support my body and the recent stem cell treatment I had in Panama. I eat healthy, organic, unprocessed, whole fruits and vegetables, and grass-fed organic protein. I’ve been consuming organic health foods for a very long time. One treat outside of the “fruit and veggie” regime, is […]
Watercress
Watercress is a leafy dark green which has not been given enough attention. It’s a superfood. I have been adding watercress to my smoothies lately. I always new it was good for me but never really enjoyed the taste of it on it’s own. I have found fresh and alive watercress in my local market […]
Fighting Inflammation with Food
The reason I am writing about “anti-inflammatory” diet is because I’m going to be traveling to Panama City in the near future for a “Myeschenal Stem Cell Procedure”. In preparation for this procedure I need to pay close attention to my diet and supplementation protocol to reduce inflammation. I need to make my inner environment […]
Death from Junk Food….what?
Okay….so we often hear that smoking causes cancer, too much sun on your skin can cause cancer, chemical toxicity causes cancer, etc. Did you know that studies are now showing that about 20% of early deaths are caused by JUNK FOOD and TOXIC INGREDIENTS in processed foods.

Are you a salt or a sugar craver? These food cravings are intense and can make the craver go out of their way to get them. They are quite different from normal hunger. They are coming to us from our brains rather than our stomachs. They hit us all in different ways. For example pregnant […]
Processed Foods and other factors = Cancer
Research is now showing that higher incidence of cancer among all age groups is influenced by PROCESSED FOOD and it’s toxic ingredients. This research out of Canada, shows that the total numbers of cancer that are linked to lifestyle choices and enviromental factors is a staggering 41%. Oh my goodness….that’s unbelievable on one hand, […]
Himalayan Salt
I was just talking to my Mom this morning about what kind of salt she is using in her kitchen. The white bleached processed table salt is not the stuff I would recommend to her or anybody. White table salt affects blood pressure, water retention and is just not good for you. High […]
Porridge – I look at it as a SUPERFOOD!
I read a study about “centurions” a few years ago and one thing they all had in common was that they all ate oatmeal (porridge) for breakfast every morning. I was recently talking with a friend of mine who also eats steel cut oatmeal every day for breakfast. I shared with her a little bit […]
Turnips
With our Thanksgiving fresh in my mind, I’m reminded of a vegetable that we don’t include in our weekly rotation of vegetables very often. It is often served at holidays along with the festive roast turkey dinner. I never would have thought that this rarely eaten vegetable would be so good for you. Time to start […]
