The Healthy Choice?

Today, we’re taking a look at “healthy drinks” and examining the claims and the reality.  When people talk about healthy options, they usually mean low-fat, low-sugar or something that contains fresh ingredients.

Scary Stuff…3 Serious Reasons to Ditch the Diet Soda Today!

Posted by: Rhona Reid On May 12, 2016 9:00 am

 
For most of us, it’s true to say that you’re never very far from a can of diet soda.  The soda can is so ubiquitous in our lives that we hardly notice it sitting on a co-worker’s desk, and we barely flinch when they’re thrust into our children’s hands at parties.  We have a vague idea that they’re not exactly great for our health, but they’re sugar-free, right?  So how bad can it be, exactly?  Let’s look the other way again.

It’s what they don’t list on the can that’s the problem.
It’s what they don’t list on the can that’s the problem.

Or not.  You see, diet soda is not good for your health.  Many argue that it doesn’t even occupy a neutral ground, that it’s actually harmful.  Let’s …

Alkaline Water and Your Colon

Posted by: William Poole On May 9, 2016 5:57 pm

 
Let’s talk about your colon. Not exactly a sexy topic, but it is an important one nonetheless.

Alkaline water is a street sweeper for the colon.
Alkaline water is a street sweeper for the colon.

The colon plays an important role in digestion and a healthy, hydrated colon is important to the health of all humans. Alkaline water is the perfect fluid to help cleanse this organ.

What is the Colon and What Does it do in the Body?

The colon, or large intestine, is the final stage of the digestive tract. It is here that water and salt are absorbed from food and waste is stored for excretion. Basically, the colon is a filtration center for the body that mostly screens waste from water and useful salts.…

Only 5 Days Until Spring!

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 17, 2016 9:00 am

 
I know! It’s exciting. Winter can be wonderful, with fires, Christmas and deeply-flavored casseroles blip-blipping away on the stove, but the promise of spring has a magic all of it’s own.

Of course, the weather might not change overnight, and there’ll still be chillier, breezy days, but generally, spring is definitely in the wings and about to make an appearance!

Spring mornings are made for enjoying!

To be honest, I sometimes find it easier to realize fresh starts and good intentions now, rather than at New Year. The brighter skies, lighter evening and milder temperatures make it easier to tackle things head on than during those dark, cold January days.

I Use Alkaline Water When I’m Too Cheap to Buy Organic

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 3, 2016 9:00 am

 
It sometimes seems a bit of anomaly, that we’re frequently charged more for fruit and vegetables that have lots of things left out. The herbicides and pesticides that are left out of organic produce, are the very things that make it cheaper and easier to achieve large crops.

The budget doesn’t always stretch to buying organic.
The budget doesn’t always stretch to buying organic.

People sometimes say “but organic doesn’t taste any better.” It’s great if it does, but really, that’s not the point. Eating organically means hopefully reducing your toxic load and therefore maybe improving your overall health.

But yes, it costs extra. People are, by necessity, tightening their belts more and more, and it becomes harder to justify the additional cost of eating organically. So …

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 1, 2016 9:00 am

 
This is traditionally the time of year when I squint distrustfully at the calendar and see that once again, it has completely fooled me into thinking that I still had many, many months of hiding beneath layers, and only exfoliating the bits of me that are on view to the public gaze (an area which roughly extends from my eyebrows to my top lip. It’s chilly here.)

Bikini? Are You Serious?
Bikini? Are You Serious?

Once my panicky yelps had subsided, I realized that I needed a plan. Luckily, with my Tyent UCE-11 at hand, the thought of dressing for the sun isn’t as terrifying as it first appeared.
