There are so many events this time of year where we will be assaulted with the white stuff - I’m talking white sugar and flour specifically. For those of you who have courageously eliminated this poison from your diet, you may be tempted to indulge (I know I am). So what can a mostly raw [...]
This month’s Healthy Diet Podcast is about news on organic leafy greens and the California raw almonds update.
Show notes:

Yesterday a client came in to my office exclaiming how wonderful he felt since he had been making it a point to go outside daily for a breath of fresh air. Getting oxygenated is necessary for great health.
Think about how important oxygen is - without it we die. Oxygen is carried in the blood to [...]
With the high cost of produce and because we want to use our land wisely we decided to start a small garden several weeks ago. Mind you, when I say small I mean small (3′ x 15′), but it is actually an experiment for a much larger garden possibly in the spring or later.

It was not that long ago that I felt life was a [...]
It’s orange season in Florida again and Alan bought our first bag of oranges at Harvey’s Groves last week. Fall is probably my favorite time of year in Florida because the weather is so beautiful, the tourists have not arrived yet and we have many varieties of citrus to delight our palate.
At Harvey’s, they offer [...]
My mother had a saying if I was grumpy in the morning, “Did you get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?” Since I am not a morning person and never have been (though I think that’s changing, so read on) I heard that a lot growing up.
