What I Buy from Azure Standard

June 10, 2013 by brenda 2 Comments

I am a grocery-price freak. Yup, I memorize how much items are per pound, and I know where to get them cheaper. Azure Standard is one of those companies I order from once every month or two for some particular staples. I like Azure Standard because: A lot of the stuff is organic I can buy…

H2O: Stop drinking 8 glasses per day

March 13, 2013 by brenda

I’ve never craved a lot of water. I would much rather drink tea than water. I think I would feel bloated and pukey (is that a word?) if I drank 8+ glasses of water a day. There are some people who seem to crave water–they always have to have it. This is seen as a bad thing,…

Do you want the government deciding what your child should eat?

February 22, 2012 by brenda 4 Comments

If you’ve read this blog much, you know that I’m anti-soy, anti-sugar, anti-processed foods. If you know much about the USDA guidelines for food, you know that in our country, eating dry cereal is considered healthy and eating more than 1 egg per day is considered hazardous to your health. It is one thing to…

Eating Should Not Involve Math!

February 7, 2012 by brenda 4 Comments

My children are well versed in many events in history, lots of literature, some science, some geography, and they know their grammar and spelling pretty darn well. But when it comes to math, I lose patience with spending an hour over a…

Harvard Law School Raw Milk Debate

February 2, 2012 by brenda 1 Comment

At one time, everyone drank raw milk. But with the invention of pasteurization and its alleged safety benefits, consumption of raw milk in this country almost completely disappeared. In fact, in some states it is illegal to sell raw milk. But a growing segment of the population is clamoring for increased access to raw milk,…

Disclaimers

I'm not a doctor, and I don't have a fancy title. I've got a bachelor's degree in English, a bunch of experience with my own health and the health of my kids, and a whole lot of passion about real food and legitimate research and studies. That said, I have to tell you that you should probably consult with your doctor before following any of the advice that I give. Hopefully you've got a really good doctor who believes in real food and who cares about your long-term health! :) Also, I have to let you know that I've got affiliate links on this site. If you click on them and buy something, there will be no additional cost to you, but I may make a small percentage. I don't link to products or services that I would not honestly recommend to my friends!
