Heavy metals like mercury, lead, and arsenic have been shown to increase blood pressure and raise the risk of heart disease. These metals can accumulate in your system over time, interfering with metabolic processes that support cardiovascular health.
How heavy metals affect your heart
Damages blood vessels
Increases oxidative stress leading to arterial plaque buildup
Increases blood pressure
How to reduce exposure
Filter drinking water using a system certified to remove heavy metals.
Limit consumption of high-mercury fish like king mackerel and swordfish.
Avoid lead-containing cookware and glassware.
Heavy metals can impact more areas than just the heart.
When your family sized load of laundry calls for less laundry detergent than your cookie recipe calls for vanilla…you know you’re going to be saving money. To be exact, this load takes two teaspoons of detergent per large load. My cookie recipe calls for two and one half teaspoons per batch.
It’s certainly a small amount of detergent, yet my clothes and linens always come out super clean.
Why should I pay for water-filled detergents when the machine adds water already? And, why should you?
It’s 2025. It must be a better value. It must be convenient. It must (really must) be healthier. Those are four reasons why I do not buy meat in a big box grocery where the only one that fits from the four item list is: it is 2025.
Getting my poultry, fish, pork from Good Ranchers also points to some of the perks: – supporting American farms – reclaiming two hours from grocery store – helping 170,000+ veterans.
My beef from Riverbend Ranch Black Angus has the perk of amazing flavor since it is all Prime and Select. It is totally raised, harvested and aged on the same ranch. Those stressful crowded hauler trips do affect the taste of beef.
Of course, Riverbend Ranch products qualify as Never Ever having antibiotics and hormones—if your meat isn’t labeled “Never Ever” and just says “No antibiotics or hormones” that does not mean never ever. I need a producer I can trust and I have found one in Riverbend Ranch.

I just received a panicked phone call from a new dad and Wellness Store shopper because the lid to the Koala Pals Baby Bathcame off while bathing his daughter and it got on her face, in her eyes and she may have ingested some.
I promptly told him to call poison control.
Poison control looked up the product and said “She’s fine with that product.”
Yep! they mean it when they safer for your home…little baby was soapy, but safe.
No lawsuits or recalls or babies poisoned This isn’t because kids don’t get into the products or because accidents don’t happen, but because these products are SAFE!
I like to say I only use the best! This baby wash comes from the same online Wellness store where I buy all of my household products and my beef. When you know better, you do better for your family.
Did you know that 90% of the energy used for a load of laundry comes from heating the water? Not washing the laundry—heating the water! Luckily for me, my favorite non-toxic laundry detergent is designed to work in any water temperature, so ! can wash my things in cold tap water and save around $22 to $25 per month on my electric bill. Not to mention my non-toxic detergent is also a lot less expensive than Tide, and you only need a small amount per load. Like I always say, some swaps just make life easier—better for your home, your wallet, and the planet!
When pasta is cooked and then cooled for 24 hours, its starch structure changes. Some of the digestible starch becomes resistant starch, which the body processes more slowly. This not only helps reduce blood sugar spikes but also feeds good gut bacteria, working as a natural prebiotic.
Reheating the cooled pasta actually amplifies the effect. Studies suggest this simple trick—cook, cool, and reheat—can cut the glycemic impact of pasta by up to 50%. It’s a small shift in meal prep with big benefits for blood sugar control and gut health.
When people ask why I use the brands I use, I always reply because they are safer for me and my home. I don’t dust by the cheapest item on the store shelves, I try to buy the best I can afford for my budget. I take into account quality, how long products will last and how they affect my health. For me it’s a simple choice to try to live a healthier lifestyle. When I’m asked for more details, I often refer friends, family and acquaintances to this link so they can see what I see for themselves. Once you switch stores, there is no going back.
I want to share with you what I bought on my last Wellness Store virtual shopping trip.
The brand NEW products that I’m excited to try are… * Cookies & Cream protein (30g/svg) * PhloraV probiotic for vaginal health * VigorFt for men (women too if they need a boost in testosterone) but for men, a “Booster for your Rooster” * Cinnamon flouride-free tooth polish
ProflexCookies and CreamVigor FT & Phlora VProstAvanSustain Frosted Lime
This morning I made a Proffee when I woke up. I’ve been seeing a lot of ads for them lately. I made it using fresh ground French-pressed Mountain Cabin Organic Breakfast Blend coffee, new Collagen Boost with Ceramides (10g protein) and a scoop of Vanilla Proflex Pro (15g protein) so I got a good hit of protein right when I woke up to help me meet my protein goals today. I have been working on getting 120-140g of protein each day while I follow the R3 Weightloss Plan to start burning off the remaining fat this summer.
I have been shopping at this Wellness Store now for 20 years and it’s been such a blessing! I am thankful that they keep coming out with new products! They’re safe for my family and forty precious pup too! No toxic chemical residue on the floors from the floor cleaners I buy here, so no worries for him.
I love sharing this store with friends and family knowing it’ll help improve their overall health, save them time and money shopping at big box stores and maybe even improve their financial health if they decide to refer their friends and family. I get a thank you check every month for referring others. This is like a healthy version of Costco with Target vibes and Amazon Prime shipping.
Have I told you about the steaks! OMG deliciousness! They are the best, American ranch raised with no antibiotics!
The SeiBella Skin Care and Haircare is AMAZING and it’s European quality…meaning no toxic chemicals will get into your bloodstream and wreak havoc on your endocrine system.
I am happy to meet with you and share it with you too!
This time the story comes from one of my happy shoppers and this is what she had to say about Berberine.…
“So a couple of months ago i went to the ER because I felt off and just felt like i was going to pass out. Well, my glucose level was over 450! That was scary! I have been nervous about taking chemical meds for diabetes—I just don’t know. I saw the Wellness Store has this great product called Berberine, and I decided to try it out. I have been taking only one a day—you can take two a day; once in the morning and once in the evening. I found this pill to be a life saver! There are a lot of benefits taking Berberine and one of them is to help with glucose levels. Without the Berberine and eating right, my blood sugars hovered around 135-170. With the Berberine, my glucose levels have been around 87-110—that’s a huge difference! PLUS, I am also down 15 pounds! I will have to find my bloodwork and compare it to the new bloodwork that I will be having done next month. This is a great product!”
