Shabby Synthetic Ascorbic Acid Gussied Up to Look Like Vitamin C

How can you tell a lady from a tramp? You can tell by the stuff from which she’s made.

Vitamins have been resorted to for nearly a century. But oh, how carefully we must interpret who they’re pretending to be!

For decades the public has been led to accept that products manufactured in a test tube are the same as those that naturally occur in food. A promiscuous pretense.

Vitamins are not separate molecular combinations but biological intricacies whose actions depend upon the entire complex functioning with integrity. Like a fine Swiss watch, they can only act fully when the co-factors of the intact vitamin complex are present and running in intelligent harmony. (more…)

3 Homeopathic Remedies for Pesticide Exposure

I love our lawn. It’s large enough for an animated game of badminton, for the dog to zig-zag wildly across it and for large family gatherings around the fire pit. I also take pleasure in the creeping Charlie, dandelions and plantain that tiptoe through the grass and give it an embroidered appearance. 

But not everyone thinks that way. 

Although I live in a country/suburban neighborhood, there’s a neighbor down the road who contracts to have his lawn sprayed with pesticides.

One evening when my husband and I were on a walk, we ran into him, and I delicately mentioned that lawn pesticides have long been associated with certain cancers in humans and dogs. He paused momentarily. “Now that you mention it, every dog we’ve ever had has died of cancer … and my wife had breast cancer.” (more…)

Sixteen Reasons to Choose Homeopathy

Homeopathy is fast becoming the medicine of choice for families who are sick and tired of being dependent on drugs that often cause more problems than the original sufferings.

Ok, ok, I’ll admit, Darvon works. Indeed, it kills pain, but after having been prescribed for 50+ years, it was banned from the marketplace for causing deaths in people who innocently took it for their pain. And what was the cause of death? It was cardiac arrest in those who had no previous nor family history of such. Quite a price to pay for something that could easily have been resolved with the use of a simple, inexpensive homeopathic remedy such as Belladonna, Arnica or Hypericum. If only those folks and their families knew before they filled the prescription. (more…)

Protection from Sunburn: No Chemical Concoctions for Me — Only Common Sense and Homeopathy

I’ve seen the headlines screaming out already: “Best New Sunscreens,” “Recent Research on Skin Cancer Risks,” and “Keep Your Children Protected.” Pardon my political incorrectness, but how does covering my precious babe in a smattering of synthetic glop equate to protection? Also, didn’t our ancestors work in the blazing sun for centuries without developing skin cancers? Something doesn’t quite add up.

Because I refuse to put anything on my skin that isn’t 100% food, I forgo the sunscreen (you can check out other articles on the subject here). Instead, my family and I bask sensibly in the vitality-giving rays of the sun. Even my fair-skinned husband does it. A slather of antioxidant-rich coconut oil to nourish and protect the skin and a sun hat go far in reaching this goal sans chemicals.

I will admit though that occasionally we overdo it and end up with a bit of sunburn. Does this mean seemingly endless days of painful suffering? Not with homeopathy!

What He Really Wants for Father’s Day

 

We received so many great responses when we put this in our newsletter; we thought we'd republish it here.

I have a wonderful father, and I’m married to a guy who is also a first-rate dad, so I feel pretty fortunate to be surrounded by good male energy. My sons are not yet fathers, but when I mentioned to one of them that I’d be writing a Father’s Day article, he said, “Mom, you need to talk about how the father is the warrior.”

I don’t recall my husband or I having employed that word, but somehow he determined that dads need to take that posture of protector and provider. I found myself feeling extra proud of him that day. (more…)

Ice Cream: A Perfect Breakfast Food

In my e-book Secret Spoonfuls, I share the insight I accumulated as a “sneaky mom” trying to get my kids to eat nutritionally dense foods that taste great.

One day, it occurred to me that ice cream, when made from raw cream and milk along with raw free-range organic eggs plus a touch of honey, was a great food. And as breakfast was the most trying meal, I began incorporating ice cream into our daily fare. Suddenly, I had no problem convincing them to eat their breakfast. (more…)
