As the news of the usage of pesticides and insecticides grows, we become more aware that nearly everyone stands a chance of exposure through food, water, and the very act of breathing. What most of us do not know is that we may even dress ourselves in them everyday – that the very act of putting on your favorite outfit could contribute indirectly to the deaths of thousands of individuals each year.

Whether it is a grandparent, parent, yourself, or another loved one, Alzheimer’s disease can directly affect the lives of many individuals. When we start seeing the small signs – slippage of memory, irritability, or loosing small things like car keys or glasses consistently – we know it is only a matter of time before the diagnosis removes all doubt. Alzheimer’s can cause painful changes to take place in the lives of those who struggle with it, and those who struggle to take care of the stricken.
Each year, millions of Americans gather around the television in their living rooms to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade, with massive floats and marching bands. Mothers, grandmothers, and aunts often gather in the kitchen to cook, share recipe secrets, and prepare a feast. Children set the tables, and snack on unattended dishes. Fathers and uncles collectively discuss the football games they will watch after the banquet. Everyone gathers in front of the fire place for a family photo just before saying a prayer, and sitting down to eat.
Dry eyes are a common condition that irritates many Americans all over the country. Many know it by the uncomfortable sensations it causes, including an itchy, burning feeling on the eyes.

You may wonder how to get the kids together for a fun, festive evening filled with the warm glow of the Christmas spirit. We have a few suggestions that everyone might enjoy.
The peppermint plant is a hybrid cross between watermint and it’s green cousin, spearmint.

It’s harvested wild (wildcrafted), organically (our recommendation), or treated with chemical pesticides to ward of plant destroying invaders.
Many of us have heard the terms ‘lymph,’ ‘lymph nodes,’ or lymphatic.’ However, few people actually know what these terms mean, or understand how they function within our bodies. The lymphatic system is a highly important part of your body’s overall immune system, and serves as a defense against toxins and waste that enter our bodies. As a subset of the circulatory system, it also plays an important role in nourishment as well.
Lips – one of the most expressive and telling features on our faces – can often make or break our natural look. Each pair of lips varies, with some people priding themselves on pillow-plush lips, and others speaking through full, but smaller lips. We use them to speak, to smile, to express ourselves in unique but universal ways. But did you know that your lips can kiss and tell you a thing or two about your health?
A lot of news buzz surrounds the labeling of organic and non-GMO products both on the market and in skin-care. Health bloggers, magazines, and other publications consistently highlight the importance of making careful selections of foodstuffs bearing the labels that signify the lack of GMOs and chemical pesticides.
