You will remember that I shared this part of my journey earlier this spring:
In the last two [...]

I have LOVED Emergen-C vitamin supplements for about 10 years now. When I first moved to Laos, I would get splitting headaches from the heat. I was probably dehydrated. I couldn’t stand the taste of other electrolyte drinks, so every time I felt headachey, light headed, or nauseated, I would drink Emergen-C. I’m kind of [...]

I am participating in a Crest Pro-Health Invigorating Clean Multi-Protection Rinse Test Drive Program.
Currently I brush twice a day, and floss and rinse very infrequently. Maybe once a week. Or whenever I get something stuck in my teeth. Heh. Just being honest.
Here are a couple of photos of the state of my teeth at the [...]

Coconut Water is Mother Nature’s Perfect Hydration Beverage and is a nutritious part of my high-raw vegan diet. It is also acceptable in a paleo diet.
I heard a rumor that during WWII, soldiers in the South Pacific used coconut water in IV lines to rehydrate soldiers succumbing to the tropical heat.
My three year old and [...]

I am a huge fan of Omega-3 supplements. I have been taking them myself since about 2006, and I feel they improve my mood, ability to concentrate, and energy level.
I have been giving supplements to my children as well since Jojo was three.
If you have a child that can’t swallow a pill but could benefit [...]

The first time I saw UV light being used for killing germs was when I worked at a primary school teacher in Beijing in 2002.
Once a week the classrooms and our apartments would be sterilized with a UV light. I thought it was a great idea and I wish I had a UV light for [...]

This summer when I was packing for a trip, I had things strewn about my bedroom, waiting to be organized and put in the suitcase.
I walked in on almost-two-year-old Deeds with an open pill bottle in his hand.
It was a terrifying sight (along with the shocking realization that Deeds could open child-proof medicine bottles). It [...]
