Beyond the Sunburn – The Power of Aloe Vera
Most of us pull out our aloe vera gel and liberally apply it when we spend too much time in the sun. It’s a lifesaver for helping out a bad sunburn, but did you know that aloe vera juice can have all kinds of powerful healing effects on the body? My use of aloe vera juice expanded when my horse coliced. (Colic in horses is essentially severe abdominal pain that can be life-threatening). My vet determined that he had an ulcer, and told me to give him aloe vera juice. We’ve given him about 1/2c a day for 3 years now, off and on, and his tummy is doing great!…

Declogging Without Harsh Chemicals
We had a SUPER DUPER GROSS mess in our house last week. I’ll spare you the details, except to say that it was revolting. I’ve traveled to 3rd world countries and seen some scary stuff. This was up there. We needed a super-hero for our drain, and FAST! I didn’t want to use harsh chemicals because, well, I didn’t. I also didn’t want to spend $7 on a drain declogger. Vinegar and Baking Soda are my new heros. As well as my husband, because he cleaned up the SUPER DUPER GROSS MESS. My husband hero dumped about 1 c of baking soda in the toilet, and then followed it by…

Reader Weigh-In – What do you use to cook?
Do you have a cupboard full of non-stick cookware? I sure do. I know they’re pretty, but the non-stick coating is a big hazard to our health. Non-stick made cooking life easier, but, in my opinion, it’s not worth the health risk! One of the big changes cancer patients make is to their cookware, because we can ingest a lot of toxins just from the cooking process. According to Dr. Mercola, when “your Teflon pot or pan reaches 680 degrees F (which takes about three to five minutes of heating), at least six toxic gases are released. At 1000 degrees F, the coatings on your cookware break down into a…
