The First Green Smoothie

The First Green Smoothie

For decades dietitians have been educating the public about the multiple benefits of greens, but it was not clear how to incorporate fresh greens into everyone’s daily diet. The only option for eating greens seemed to be the salad. The problem is that in our industrialized world, the taste of greens is not as appealing as the stimulating taste of processed foods.

Things My Doctor Didn't tell Me

The American medical system is among the best care the world for treating accidents, but ranks with the lowest  in the world for treatment of disease. We have higher rates of infant mortality, diabetes, heart disease, and other ills than many other developed countries. This week I received several test results from my primary care [...]

Top 12 Health Benefits of Green Smoothies

Isn’t it amazing that Americans worry more about the gas we put in our cars than the food we put in our bodies? I’ve been getting healthy with a very simple health plan: I eat God’s food instead of man’s food. You can read Dr. Axe’s Healing Food Plan here. I’ve lost eight pounds in [...]

Do You Know What You Are Eating?

Have you seen the British show You Are What You Eat with Gillian McKeith? I love it. I tape each show with DVR  so I don’t miss an episode. Each week, Gillian marches into a family’s life and changes what they eat from fat and sugar to healthy, nutritious meals. She is not very polite  [...]

Reasons Not to Eat Pig

Reasons Not to Eat Pig

I’ve visited hundreds of organic, healthy living sites and I’m amazed that most even consider pork a food. Satan twisted God’s Word to convince Eve to eat forbidden fruit. Today he twists God’s Word to convince us to eat forbidden foods. God did not change His mind about food nor change the biological structure of animals. [...]

Amazing Virgin Coconut Oil Secrets

Some time back, my sweet, health-conscious friend, Dolores,  told me about the benefits of coconut oil.  I bought a jar and put in on my shelf until I had time to find recipes to use it in. My boys and I have been sick all week; I believe we have strep throat.  When I looked [...]

Holy Cow: Does God Care What We Eat?

This simple-to-understand book uses basic hermeneutic principles to properly interpret what the Bible says about eating meat. Eagan is clear that our diets are not a salvation issue, while at the same time encouraging obedience to God’s Word. HOLY COW! Does God Care About What We Eat? begins with the author’s attention-grabbing personal story. The [...]

God is Better than Google: Found a Christian Doctor

I don’t know why I’m always amazed how God answers my prayers. He always does and I’m always amazed. The Bible says we are not to receive counsel from the ungodly (Psalm 1:1)—however, most of us go to doctors without a clue of their spiritual condition. I prayed for a Christian doctor and  found Dr. [...]

Going Gluten-Free

Last month my doctor diagnosed me with celiac disease (via symptoms, not test results), a digestive disorder due to severe gluten sensitivity. I cannot eat any gluten. Thanks to genetic engineering the wheat we eat today has four times the amount of gluten the wheat our grandparents ate—i.e., we are not eating the wheat God [...]

Billions of Reasons to Take Probiotics

Billions of Reasons to Take Probiotics

I began taking probiotics a few months ago to help with digestive problems. Probiotics, when translated, literally means “for life.” They are living microorganisms—“friendly” or “good” bacteria that, when consumed in sufficient numbers, can provide health benefits that go beyond basic nutrition. Yogurt contains probiotics. You can also take in pill or capsule form. If [...]

7 Amazing Benefits of Fish Oil

Hubby and I have been taking Omega 3 fish oil tablets for years as recommended by our cardiologist. It makes perfect sense. Mankind was meant to live near the water and fish was to be a mainstay in our diets. Our American culture doesn’t have a habit of eating fish, which means that we don’t [...]

Common Ingredient as Addictive as Cocaine

The number one source of calories in the American diet might cause obesity, high blood pressure, and a number of other common diseases. Fructose corn syrup isn’t natural. It’s been chemically altered to enhance its sweetness. And it certainly isn’t part of a healthy diet. High-fructose corn syrup is a common sweetener and preservative. High-fructose [...]

Beans are nearly the perfect food. They have an amazing nutrition track record. Beans are a super source of fiber and protein.

Ice Cravings are a Symptom of Anemia

If the photo above makes your mouth water, you may be anemic. I know when I’m anemic when I start craving ice (drives my DH crazy). I can put away some ice. When I am anemic I crunch non- stop all day long. I even get up in the middle of the night for a [...]

Feeling achy? Tired? Having trouble loosing weight?  It could be a sign that you’re suffering from vitamin D deficiency. Studies now show most overweight people are deficient in Vitamin D.

Spiritual Roots of Diseases (Fear)

Spiritual Roots of Diseases (Fear)

  I went to a conference on the spiritual roots of diseases. It should be no surprise that there are spiritual roots to many diseases.  Christians have  same statistics in the areas of cancer, heart disease, depression, divorce, diabetes, etc.  as unbelievers. Diseases are choking the church! God’s Spirit dwelling in us does not mean [...]

Why You Crave Chocolate?

Studies show over 75% of Americans are dangerously deficient in magnesium. Magnesium is an essential factor in more aspects of health than any other mineral, yet rarely measured by doctors. Chocolate cravings are a sign of a magnesium deficiency. Women’s bodies scream for chocolate during PMS. Some researchers believe that women crave chocolate prior to [...]

Passover, Yeast, and Fungus?

HPV Commercials? Yes, Tell Someone…the Truth

Have you seen the compelling HPV commercials? They urge us to tell our daughters, friends, moms, aunts and sisters that cervical cancer is caused by HPV (Human papillomavirus) and urge everyone to get the vaccine. They fail to state that HPV is actually a sexually transmitted disease . This vaccine is about to be mandatory [...]
