The Tooth Story

Sorry if this grosses anybody out. I’ve been through it this week and feel the need to share. Last summer, my dentist told me I needed a root canal in my top right bicuspid. I talked with Dr P about it, because he has always maintained that root canals are bad, bad news. Apparently there [...]

Swine Flu Vaccine

Watch this. It’s a 60 Minutes documentary on the effects of the Swine Flu vaccine in 1976. It was aired one time and never again. Any of this sound familiar? Often, people who are anti-vaccination are accused of being fearful, using fear to persuade people of their opinions. That’s true in some cases. However, watch [...]

Protect yourself against cancer

I asked for prayer last week for Melody’s brother Jon who has been declared terminal with brain cancer. My heart goes out so deeply to people who have to fight that battle. There is so much fear related to cancer, and sometimes it feels like there’s little you can do to protect yourself and your [...]

Pneumonia Vaccine

Wanted to pass along this link today. As I said a couple weeks ago, I would never try to tell someone what choices to make for their children. But, if you are accepting everything your doctor tells you for your children without doing research of your own, you may be surprised what you’re missing!

The Last Resort

Staci referred me to this website. People often ask me about where to start to get healthy, or how to feed their family right. This article has the steps – the place to start. The author is very no-nonsense, and he doesn’t really tolerate whining. I’ve only read a couple of articles on the website [...]

Homeopathics

At about 2am this morning, Hannah woke up suddenly with fever, a stuffy nose that is dry, and a confusion that was scary to me. I think it was the high fever, exactly like the one Audrey had last weekend. (I’m disinfecting my entire house today. Yes.) Today, I pulled out my trusty Family Guide [...]

5 a day?

As Nick and I were talking about something unrelated last night, we stumbled across talking about how we don’t tend to eat enough fruits and vegetables around here. Now, that may surprise you, since I’m the resident health nut. But, we focus so much on protein for blood sugar stability and gluten-free grain, that sometimes, [...]

Circadian Rhythm

I found this article very interesting today. It gives tons of info and then says our bodies are made to sleep from 10pm to 6am. It also says to sleep in a pitch black room. I’ve heard these things before, but in light of the fact that Nick and I often go to bed late [...]
