Paper or Plastic? Neither Thanks!
Friday, March 31st, 2006
Our dumps are full of plastic bags, as are our ditches and waterways. And it is no wonder, factories around the world churned out a whopping 4-5 trillion of them in 2002, ranging from large trash bags to thick shopping totes to flimsy grocery sacks. Unfortunetly now that they are there they will take 20 […]

Be A Hero

When I was eighteen I joined the Unrelated Bone Marrow Registry which locates compatible, committed, healthy, unrelated donors for Canadian bone marrow patients and for patients around the world. As a regular blood donor it seemed a logical step in helping to make a difference. Since I had already donated blood that had been typed […]

Tension Reducer

A Brisk Walk is just as good as a tranquilizer in reducing tension
Keyword being “brisk” definately more on the power walking side than stroll…
A great exercise that almost anyone can do, all you require is a good pair of sturdy shoes and comfortable clothing.
Start slowly to warm up, gradually increase to a purposeful stride keeping […]

Spring Cleaning
Sunday, March 26th, 2006
As we emerge from winter the need to reawaken our bodies and stimulate our own vitality is at its strongest.

During a detoxification diet, we give our bodies time to “catch up” on all the […]

“Nutritious Fast Food” the great deception
Sunday, March 26th, 2006
The U.S. governments’ statistics show that almost half of all food is consumed outside of the home and people aged 18-24 eat twice as much fast food as older people. In the past 10 years obesity has climbed as we began eating out even more and childhood obesity has tripled! As we became more educated […]

Produce Stickers
Sunday, March 26th, 2006
It is easy to tell how your supermarket bought fruit/vegetables were grown by looking at the PLU number, which is now standardized.
5 digits, starting with 8=genetically modified
5 digits, starting with 9=organically grown
4 digits= conventionally farmed (neither organic or genetically modified)
Of course, buying from your local farmer makes the process even easier…just ask them!
