Are You Getting Your Daily Dose of Vitamin D?

Research suggests a strong association between cancer and low vitamin D levels. When the sun’s rays hit the skin, the skin cells are able to manufacture Vitamin D. Just 15 minutes a day of sun exposure can make a BIG difference in your levels AND your mood!

Danger Lurking in Your Cabinets
Many pop;ar cleaning products can harm you and your families. Sure, they clean and leave your house smelling great and fresh, but they can also mess with the neurons in your brain and nervous system. Many of their ingredients are hormone disruptors, Yup, that’s right, you heard right. These ingredients love to be absorbed your body’s stored fat along with you largest organ, your skin!
I’m ever so grateful for a dear friendr who recommended I try out a shop club that she used. She believed it would help me live a true wellness lifestyle. What she told me made so much sense, that I decided to shop for the things I’ve been shopping for at the local big box stores.
I pinch myself from time to time to think about how I made this decision to switch stores nearly 20 years ago. Honestly, this shop club has kept me healthier than ever and saved me tons of money over the years.
So, as I share this life changing shop club with others, it surprises me how stuck they are on traditional poisonous products that do more harm than good. I have found that educating the end consumer is what I’m suppose to do. I pray for hearts to be open to learn that what you breathe in matters.
What a difference shopping healthier products makes! I love shopping here, and all the information I’ve learned over the last 20 years! Dangerous things should come with warning labels, but often they don’t.
I’m so glad there’s a one-stop shop for better safer products for me and my family.
Often, we don’t see the harm these products cause until many years later. Every so often, I hear a new illness has been linked to the use of these common every day home products. Educating people on how ingredients matter isn’t an easy task. But possible for those who are tired of being tired to try a safer brand.
Did you know that staying hydrated impacts your heart health?
If you are well hydrated, your heart does not have to work so hard. Keeping the body hydrated helps the heart more easily pump blood through the blood vessels to the muscles, and, it helps the muscles work more efficiently.
If a you perspire heavily, you will need to drink more than someone who doesn’t. Certain medical conditions, such as diabetes or heart disease, may also mean you need to drink more water.
Remember, if you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated. These fun little fruity waters are a great way for you to drink more water during the day! Give them a try!
Tip of the day
Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.
Quality Hair Care
I have seen many posts people asking about good quality hair products and Olaplex was often recommended. I just wanted to share this information and to tell you there are great products out there that are so much safer!
A class action lawsuit was recently filed against Olaplex, a popular hair care brand that claims to be good for your hair. Many women have experienced hair loss, baldness and scalp blisters while using this brand od products. Not all ingredients are required to be on the label and sometimes unhealthy chemicals are added as it appears to be the case with Olaplex.
That’s why I love SeiBella products . They are guaranteed to be safe for you and your hair.
As always as a Buyer, be aware of the ingredients!
The Best Laundry Detergents Avoid Toxic Ingredients
Most laundry detergents have toxic ingredients such as 1,4 dioxane (causes cancer), SLS/SLES, parabens, phosphates, sulfates, synthetic dyes, optical brighteners, & more. Your laundry detergent gets absorbed into your body through your skin (your largest organ) so it’s important to avoid these ingredients.
Brands like All, Seventh Generation, Tide, Persil, Gain, Earthbreeze, Arm & Hammer, Charlie’s Soap, and Nellies contain some these ingredients and much more. When these brands were evaluated, the testers used twi criteria: (1) clean ingredients (we want to avoid dangerous chemicals) and (2) cleaning power (we don’t want to compromise on effectiveness) .

My favorite laundry detergent is made from safe, natural, and plant-based ingredients. It is effective at cleaning and eliminating odors – and it doesn’t contain dangerous chemicals, optical brighteners, sulfates, phosphates, parabens, chlorine, or synthetic dyes (that works for me!)
