#1 Thing You Can Do for Your Child's Health

7:27 AM Jackie Mart 0 Comments
Cooking with your kids is a great way to talk about their health! Experts say that the single most important thing you can do for your health is to cook at home. Inviting children into the kitchen and involving them at a very young age fosters a habit that will have lifelong benefits. Also, it gives you an opportunity to discuss with a 3-year-old how fish can help make you smart (fatty acids), how “eating a rainbow” ensures that you get a wide variety of vitamins and minerals, and how eating plenty of fresh vegetables and drinking lots of water will “make your dump truck easier to empty!"

Ancient Egyptians Used This

7:28 PM Jackie Mart 2 Comments
Cleopatra lined her eyes with charcoal! Activated charcoal has been used around the world in beauty products, for cleansing and teeth whitening. In modern medicine it's used in the ER to treat drug overdoses and poisoning by attaching to toxins and preventing their absorption.  It attracts to and binds to toxins, bacteria, dirt, and oil preventing them from causing harm.  

 Activated charcoal is derived from wood or coconut husks and then treated to increase its ability to bind to toxins.  It's available in several forms: powder, capsules, soaps, and toothpaste.  

 *Note: If you take it internally be sure to drink plenty of water because it can cause dehydration. 
3 Ways I Use Activated Charcoal:

 Teeth Whitener- I use the powder and mix it with my natural toothpaste to help with stains and fight bad breath! (What I use) 

 Facial Soap- I like to use  Pacha Tree Tree and Charcoal Facial Bar which helps to purify the skin, draw out toxins, and and balances out oily skin. 

 Internal Detox- Activated charcoal can improve digestive function and immunity by helping to remove heavy metals and toxins that cause allergic reactions and oxidative damage, as well as viruses and parasites. (What brand I recommend)

Are you one of those people who can’t keep the weight off no matter what you do? Have you tried diets, doctors, and drugs- all to no avail? You could be suffering from food intolerances! Food intolerances differ from food allergies. Most doctor visits are cases of food intolerances and can be avoided. Learn what they are and how they contribute to inflammation, chronic sinus congestion, stomach problems, skin problems, and weight gain.
