Since I apparently have the immune system of a plague-ridden, Renaissance-era Victorian child, I find myself rather ill with a hell of a bug, not even one month after overcoming a different sort of cold virus. It’s more annoying than anything, and also rather inconvenient, but seeing as it is that time of year for … More These are the best foods to eat when you’re sick (part two)
I have come to the conclusion that my immune system hates me. I say this because I had just barely gotten over a nasty bug that held on for just about a month, only to be hit with yet another one days later. Life is just grand, isn’t it? As a result of my disdain … More These are the best foods to eat when you’re sick (part one)
Today’s post serves as an extension of yesterday’s – we are discussing beef and its many benefits, and while doing so, are hopefully manipulating enough people into consuming more of it. Manipulation has a negative connotation associated with it, but you know what I’m getting at. At least, I hope so. I can’t really fathom … More Here’s your sign to eat more beef (part two)
Anyone reading this post who knows me personally will likely think that today’s content is a wee bit biased, seeing as I married a beef farmer. This is true to an extent; I’m eating more beef since getting married than I ever did prior, and I’m certainly not mad about it. But, having a beef … More Here’s your sign to eat more beef (part one)
As stated in yesterday’s post, today’s will be a continuation of our discussion about self-defence, and how crucial it is to understand how to defend yourself. In this day and age, assault and harassment occur more often than not, especially if you’re a woman; I’ve lost count of how many harrowing incidents I have had … More Know how to protect yourself (part two)
A few days ago now, my family and I were chatting about the reality of being a woman in this sick and twisted world and how we must always stay vigilant when it comes to our safety. I’ve had more close calls than I can count, some of which honestly shook me to my core, … More Know how to protect yourself (part one)
Yesterday’s post introduced the topic of red light therapy, otherwise known as RLT, providing some background information about the concept and some of its benefits. RLT has become more popular in the wellness community in the past few years, which is wonderful, but I do think it is something that could benefit a significant number … More Should you try red light therapy? (part two)
I wouldn’t say red light therapy, as a concept, is a new one. But, within the past few years, it has certainly gained popularity based on my own observations, and I am pleased to see its growth, because it really is a wonderful thing. I wasn’t overly savvy with red light therapy prior to using … More Should you try red light therapy? (part one)
In conversation with someone recently, I was presented with a term I had never heard of before. Called oil pulling, the person I was speaking with recommended it to me because I was telling them about how I’ve recently started to have some issues with my own teeth in the context of staining. I was … More What the heck is oil pulling?
When it comes to genetics, I inherited most of my bodily traits from my mom and her side of the family. My mom, my aunt, and a few of my cousins all deal with poor circulation, as do I; my mom recently saw a specialist who recommended Niacin to her, so I wanted to do … More Poor circulation? Niacin could help
As per my mother’s recommendation, I’ve been taking collagen for probably over a year now. I was aware that collagen is a fantastic supplement to take to promote hair, nail and skin health, but that was the extent of my collagen knowledge at the time I first started using it. I’ve been pleasantly surprised to … More Should you be using collagen?
Yesterday’s post discussing ginseng hopefully provided anyone who read it with a firmer understanding of how exactly it is produced. I didn’t mention each and every step involved in the complete process of growing ginseng, from start to finish, but I did provide you with the gist of the method. For today’s post, I thought … More What health benefits does ginseng offer?
Anyone who has experienced the inability to fall asleep can attest to how insanely frustrating it is.
