Serious health warning: Incorporating these suggestions into your
life may allow you to remain fit, healthy and sniffle-free all winter
long.

With the brisk chill of the colder months descending upon us,
thoughts of winter sniffles can have many of us reaching for a box of
tissues before you can even say “aaaaachooo…!!!” Although common as a
cold, respiratory infections are nothing to sneeze at. With increasing
numbers of deaths from antibiotic resistant pneumonia, bacterial
diseases and worldwide infectious epidemics, perhaps it is time to

“To carb or not to carb?” This seems to be the question on everybody’s lips (or should that be hips?) these days.

adequate rest can all be taxing to the vital energy of these organs.
Give them a treat with this re-balancing home remedy and notice how you
feel. Continue Reading »

Until the recent reintroduction of unrefined coconut oil on the
wholefoods scene, and the attempt to re-educate a public indoctrinated
by the margarine and refined oils industry of its supposed deleterious
effects, all that stood between artery obstructing, cell destroying
trans fats and a deep fryer was butter. Hardly a choice for most
macrobiotically oriented, whole food loving individuals. Continue Reading »

A depressed family-sized jar of full cream mayonnaise was staring despondently at the inside of the closed refrigerator door.
“What’s up, old buddy?” asked his friend, a worried bottle of oily salad dressing.
“I’m being replaced by my low fat and low cholesterol relatives,” sniffed the mayonnaise unhappily. Continue Reading »
