Toxic cookies! 😬

Consumer groups, GMOScience, Moms Across America, and supporters have commissioned the testing of Girl Scout cookies for toxic metals and glyphosate/AMPA (an herbicide and its byproduct), to promote awareness and positive change for health. The results were extremely concerning.

If you thought parsley was only good for decoration around restaurant salad bars ... think again!!
First of all, besides several phytochemicals, parsley has many healthy nutrients: calcium, folate, iron, magnesium, manganese, phospohorus, potassium, seleniu, zinc, and vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, C and E! Speaking of vitamin C ... parsley contains more than oranges by weight!
Parsley expels worms, freshens breath, relieves gas, stimulates the digestive system, and helps with thryroid, bladder, stomach, kidney, lung, and liver function.
It's also good for fluid retention, high blood pressure, obesity, and prostate disorders.
WOW, parsley!!

You can grow it easily in a pot at home, which looks fresh and pretty, or in your garden!
Add it to soups, chop up into your ground meat before grilling, toss with salad, or simply chew on some before and after dinner.

Research has found that the water taken from plant cells is significantly more hydrating the plain water!
Do you feel fatigued, dizzy, dry mouth, or lack of focus? You could very well be dehydrated!

Some things you might like to know about hydration!
1 - As refreshing as it is, chugging cold water is actually harder for the body to absorb and hydrate. Drinking warm or room temperature water, slowly over the course of the day, is much better. After a night of no hydration, first thing in the morning I hydrate my cells with a glass of warm sole (water made with real salt). For the rest of the day, my water bottle holds room temperature, purified water with a pinch of real salt. Not only am I hydrating my cells more efficiently this way, but I'm also getting balanced minerals into my system.
2- Being the best water comes from foods, here are a few foods that contain 90% water! Apples, Beets, Broccoli, Cantaloupe, Celery, Cucumbers, Oranges, Pears, Spinach, Strawberries, Watermelon, Yogurt. When I go on a long road trip, and don't want to make too many pit stops, I make sure to have hydrating foods in my ice chest!
3- Another thing to be aware of ... as we age, we tend to drink less water, we become less thirsty (due to neurons becoming less sensitive to dehydration signals), we become less able to regulate heat, and our cells hold less water.
4- Don't wait until you're thirsty, always stay hydrated! Urine should always be light, yellow, and clear. One habit I have made for myself is each time I p*e, I follow up with 8 oz of water every time!

STAY HYDRATED ALWAYS!!!

I’ve been warning of sucralose for years!!
Sharing this article, as it does an excellent job of informing!

Products with this substance are labeled as healthier alternatives to sugar, but is this artificial sweetener really a better option?

Microgreens are a beautiful way to get nutrition into your diet! Not only can you find them in your local grocery store, but you can easily grow them in your own kitchen (super fresh)!

Microgreens contain concentrated amounts of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, making them a tiny powerhouse!
You will want to eat them raw, as the high heat in cooking destroys essential enzymes, vitamins, and phytonutrients.

In particular:
~sunflower, radish, broccoli, kale, and nasturtium microgreens are beneficial for your skin.
~beetroot microgreens are beneficial for your hair.

Once little leaves have formed, you can start harvesting your homegrown microgreens, and you will want to eat as soon as picked (fresh is best).
Use microgreens in your salads, smoothies, snacks, layered in sandwiches, garnishing drinks, seasoning and garnishing soups, juicing, garnishing stir fry, and more!

Sinuses became dry in the winter is to the extent that the sinuses will make excess mucus in the spring. Dry sinuses carried over from winter mixed with the tendency to hold water and become congested in the spring can increase the risk for colds. Keep up with your vitamin D and turmeric, and cut back on grains and dairy, to keep immunity strong until May!
