Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition, Vitamins

I worked for a woman many years ago who was very dedicated to good nutrition and taking herbs and vitamins. She had shared her expertise with her family and with the community through her business and regular monthly meetings. I was very fortunate to be able to learn many things from her.

How can omega-3 fatty acids and their essential benefits!

Posted in Exercise, Food, General, Health, Nutrition, Vitamins

Another name for Omega-3 Fatty Acids is Essential Fatty Acids. Essential by definition means absolutely necessary, extremely important. I was raising my oldest children during the 80’s when everything you read told you to cut fat out of your diet. I gave son number 2 skim milk based on what I was reading at the […]


Something Old and Something New to become a Healthier You!

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition

It is the Information Age and there is always new science when it comes to diet and exercise. All this information can be conflicting and overwhelming.

High Cholesterol could mean “heart attack”, but you can fight that with lifestyle changes!

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition

Drs. prescribe statins for people to lower their cholesterol to reduce their risk for heart attack or stroke. While they can be effective, they also have the possibility of unwanted side effects. Among the list of side effects include muscle tiredness, weakness, or pain, digestive problems, mental fuzziness and possibly liver damage. I have had […]


Grab and Go Antioxidants

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition, Vitamins

You have probably heard about antioxidants before, or maybe not? The prefix anti means against, and oxidation is what antioxidants are against. What is oxidation?
