How would I describe it? Well their classic version pretty much tastes like normal ketchup, just a lot better. And then there’s [...]

Nettle Tea & Anemia
For anyone suffering from iron deficiency anemia (a disorder in which the red blood cells are reduced and sufficient oxygen is unable to be delivered to the body’s tissue) a great natural way to boost your iron intake is to have 1-3 cups/day of nettle tea. Nettle is an excellent plant-based source of iron, chlorophyll, folic [...]

Yo-Yo Diets
Need a really good reason not to yo-yo diet? When body weight goes up and down, it loosens the elasticity of skin and makes it sag! Not to mention that some studies suggest that extreme ups and downs in your weight may increase the risk for certain health problems like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, [...]

Want a pretty easy tip for decreasing wrinkles? Try sleeping on your back. I know, if you’re like me, sleeping on your stomach is sooooo comfortable.

Detoxifying Body Wash
How about a body wash that not only cleanses your skin, but also claims to detoxify your entire body?! I’m talking about Collective Wellbeing’s Charcoal Body Wash. This sulfate-free concoction is definitely unlike anything I’ve tried before…It is very dark grey color (hello charcoal!) and has a very gooey, thick consistency. I like the idea that a capful [...]

Reminders for Your Next Massage
Some great advice from Healing Lifestlyes & Spas for the next time you get a massage: Be punctual. You don’t want to stress yourself out right before or feel rushed through your massage. (Personally, I love to get there early to drink tea and read some good mags… get in chilled out mode) Communicate with [...]
