The health-care “crisis”

Considering that health care is quite a hot-topic these days, I figured I would say a few words about that… is a public option at worst or single-payer at best, going to solve the health-care crisis? I doubt it. We don’t need more “access” to pills to shove down our throats.  Yes, there is a [...]

Seeding a Gift-Culture

Milk, does a body…??

The common belief (or myth) is that milk is the body’s reliable source of calcium.  Sure, technically, cow’s milk does have calcium.  What remains in question is whether or not it is the best source of calcium and is it a source of absorbable calcium.  Many researchers have proven that no, milk is not a [...]

A wake up call for the power of nature

About one month ago, I had the opportunity to attend a long awaited seminar with Donnie Yance, a leading herbalist for Cancer treatment.
