Blog, Pause For Prevention

By now, you probably know that plastics can be hugely problematic for our health and mother nature. Living Green is one of our 8 Stomps to Step Out Breast Cancer so we believe that it is always better to choose materials such as glass, stainless steel, or organic fabrics. However… plastics are almost everywhere and can be really difficult to avoid. They’re in practically every kind of household product: food containers, cleaning supplies, kitchenware, and much more. The good news is that not all plastics are created equal, and some are safer than others.

Most people think of fasting, dieting, or some crazy cleanse. Although all these do involve some sort of detox, they tend to be a temporary fix for a much larger problem. Detoxing is all about removing nasty, often cancer-causing toxins from our bodies in order to help live an overall healthier life!

CANCER FIGHTING FOODS // Natural Antibiotics for Cold + Flu Season

Blog, Tasty Recipes

It is almost instinctual for us to head to the doctor’s office to get meds when we come down with a sickness. However, the antibiotics often prescribed usually wind up doing much more harm than good, killing off healthy bacteria and the bad pathogens. While antibiotics do have their place in medicine, why not think about reaching for a natural solution when you can? Mother Nature has some pretty amazing things to offer us!
