Beyond the Slogans
Beyond the Slogans I rarely eat processed food, as when I look at the ingredients, I cannot decipher what’s in the food product. My theory is that if I don’t know what an ingredient is, I probably don’t want it in my body. If it looks interesting, I can look up the information and any potential benefits I may wish to consider.

Stuck in the Quagmire
Stuck in the Quagmire You can get yourself out. We’ve all been there, likely more than once. There we are, stuck, struggling to get our footing back, but the more we struggle, the more we sink. Maybe a day, a week, a month. Sometimes many months. We need some clarity, a moment to breathe, then we can find our way out.

Feeling A Bit Salty. Top Story - January 2023.
Feeling a Bit Salty My husband and I have been gluten-free for several years now. It has really changed our eating habits and nutritional awareness. With a focus still on achieving a healthier diet, we have decided to pay attention to our sodium intake. Shouldn’t be too much of a difficulty, as we don’t eat out often, hardly ever eat anything deep fried, don’t use processed foods very much, or add much salt in food preparation. When we do purchase products for cooking, we try to get the low-sodium option.
