Do you remember back to the days of “Twizzlers” licorice sticks? I sure do. It was a memorable sweet treat we would chew on and share with our friends. Back when I was a youngster I remember my parents bringing me a “goodie box” to camp and it usually had a package of licorice in […]

Bone Health
This topic is not something I paid too much attention to over the years. I just assumed that because I was eating healthy I was looking after my bone health. Did I get a big surprise. Not being able to walk and put too much weight load on my bones over the past 12 years […]
Curcumin – Turmeric
Turmeric is the spice that gives curry its yellow colour. It is a spice that has been used in India for hundreds of years. It contains compounds with medicinal properties. These compounds are called curcuminoids and the best of those is “curcumin”. I have posted about turmeric before but I think it is worth repeating. […]
Hydration
Are you hydrated enough? It’s amazing how many body functions are affected by not drinking enough water on a daily basis. I am guilty of not drinking enough water. I’ve been told by health and wellness professionals that I need to drink more water. I frequently shy away from drinking too much liquid throughout the […]
Rainbows

A few weeks ago it was in China and we were watching from a distance thinking “I hope the experts can keep it contained”. It’s almost world wide now. Nobody […]
HAPPY PLACE!
I loved golfing pre-Multiple Sclerosis. I tried to keep it up for as long as I could but about 6 years ago I finally threw in the towel….so to speak. My last time golfing back then, I took a swing on the tee box and just about ended up in the pond beside the tee. […]
Apple Cider Vinegar
I wrote about this elixir several years ago. I am revisiting it again as I am now taking it daily to aid with digestion…as per suggested by my Naturopathic doctor. Apple Cider Vinegar has been studied and has been on the “good for you” list of most nutritionists and naturopathic doctors and dieticians. There are […]
Coronavirus add-on
Last week I posted about the coronavirus taking China by storm. My dear friend who reads my posts on a weekly basis, had just been to a doctor recently. Through discussions regarding staying healthy and avoiding this virus and other nasty germs, the doctor explained to my friend that wearing a mask, in the grand […]
