Try these spook-tacular Halloween recipes!
I’m very excited because this weekend I’ll be hosting my first party since moving to Florida (I love to entertain), and what better occasion for a get-together than a Halloween costume party! My boyfriend and I plan to be skeletons, and I can’t wait to see the costumes our friends come up with! I’ve had a lot of Halloween parties over the years and have made many different appetizers and drinks, but there are...

Why does the media ignore these COVID facts?
If you are a bit “seasoned” like I am, you probably remember when the “news” was actually that—reporting on important information or events taking place, with no opinions, hidden agendas or slants. Now? It’s a fear-inducing psychological operation carried out by very well-trained, well-groomed actors, and COVID has been their choice of topic 24/7 for the last nearly two years. But if these script readers truly cared about reporting NEWS, how about telling people...

A REAL breast cancer prevention plan
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and if I had my way, I would change that to Breast Cancer Prevention Month.

Are you shortening your life in this way?
I’ll start your Wednesday with some shocking statistics. A recent JAMA study was conducted that showed children and teens get a whopping 67 percent (two-thirds) of their daily calories from highly processed foods! So, is it any wonder they’re depressed, can’t sit still or concentrate, and over half (54 percent) of them have at least one chronic disease? Adults are no better. Although as adults we “should” appreciate the importance of healthy food more...
Do you have this disease risk? Bet your doc doesn’t know!
If you’ve been a reader of mine for a while, you’ve probably noticed that I tell it like it is and don’t sugar-coat anything. That’s especially true with respect to my feelings about mainstream medicine. Now don’t get me wrong—I have a lot of respect for people in the medical field that truly want to help others. The problem I have lies more with the training that most medical professionals receive because it is...

This is your most vital organ—take care of it or else!
October is National Liver Awareness Month. While I feel pretty confident that we are all “aware” of our livers, I’d be willing to bet that many people don’t know everything that their liver does for them. It’s arguably your most important vital organ! In addition, unlike your other organs and systems, unfortunately you don’t always get obvious warning signs when something is awry with your liver…so yours may be suffering and you don’t even...
