Your bowel movements.
Didn’t see that one comin’, did ya?? Seriously folks, this tip is a long time coming. It’s one of the most embarrassing thing for people to talk about, and I’m still not 100% comfortable blogging about it, but it can’t be brushed under the rug any longer. So many things about your health can be gleaned from your regularity. What goes in must come out, so if you’re eating 3 times a day or more, and only “going” once every 3 days…something is amiss.

Get lots of duct tape?
Sorry guys. I don’t know a thing about earthquake preparedness. However, I do know that if the Mayans were right, then I need to have a few more weekends like this past one before our time’s up! The hubster and I took a trip to Boston to visit some friends and had such a great weekend.

One large factor that could help reduce your risk of chronic disease is to take stock of your alkaline vs. acidic levels, in otherwords, your pH. When our pH is too low, or acidic, we’re at risk for many...
“I just don’t have the energy.” Sound familiar? I’ve been feeling this way myself recently, hence the lack of writing. Everything just feels like a chore, and when it feels like a chore, I just don’t want to do it.
