Your Gut: It’s a bug’s life!
Your body plays host to trillions of bacteria, the majority of which reside in your intestines. Although microscopic in size, these “bugs” play a large and mighty role in everything from digestion to immune system function, as well as gut brain communication and neurotransmitter production. Not all bacteria are beneficial – what we ingest has a big impact on the type and health of these tiny organisms. Consuming a wide variety of prebiotics and probiotics while avoiding processed sugar, excess alcohol, and smoking all works together to create an environment that supports a bug’s life and consequently optimal health and well-being.
Vision Disorders Affect Learning
Developmental vision disorders interfere with the ability to function in our high-tech, educationally driven society. These visual dysfunctions can cause difficulty with reading, doing paperwork, paying attention, concentrating, and working on the computer. Sadly, 1 in 4 children have vision problems that interfere with their ability to learn, yet they do not report having visual difficulties. And many adults are amazed to discover how many of the signs and symptoms that they have come to accept as “part of life” are actually due to a previously undiagnosed visual disorder. Unlike a regular eye exam, a developmental visual evaluation is required to determine if any learning-related visual dysfunctions are present.

Essential Oils for Snoring
If you have tried all of the pillows, mouth guards, and gadgets advertised to help eliminate your own snoring or your spouse’s snoring, you may want to try essential oils that can assist in alleviating the problem. Diffusers are a great way to use essential oils at night, while some oils can be blended with carrier oils and applied directly to the body. Some of the more commonly used essential oils for snoring include lavender (promotes clear breathing), sage (clears out sinuses), thyme (promotes deeper sleep), cedarwood (stimulates the respiratory system), and marjoram (clears out sinuses).
Bioresonance Therapy for Better Health
The famous opera singer, Ella Fitzgerald, could break a wine glass by singing a note in high C. A principle called resonance plays a central role in the breaking of the wine glass. However, in the health field, this principle is called bioresonance, because it is concerned with living organisms. Sending certain frequencies into a body can affect the health of that person. There are frequencies that destroy toxins and pathogens just like the frequencies that destroyed the wine glass. Other frequencies can be beneficial to cells, tissues, and organs. This is how bioresonance improves one’s health.
Caring for Your Dentures
Dentures need daily care to keep them clean and in their best shape. When cleaning your dentures, be gentle to ensure you don’t break them. Try placing a towel in the sink or filling it with water to protect them from the hard surface. Soak your dentures and then brush them with a soft-bristled brush and a non-abrasive denture cleanser (toothpaste is not recommended). Place your dentures in water or a mild denture-soaking solution overnight, and then rinse them thoroughly in the morning before using them. These steps will help to keep your dentures looking and feeling great!
Discover To-Ji Healing
To-Ji means healing through bathing. Samurai and monks have used this method to heal the body and mind for hundreds of years. People travel to the volcanic mountain to use thermal resources, such as Japanese stone bathing, called Ganban-yoku. These mineral stones release therapeutic warmth to help improve the circulation of the internal organs and deep parts of the muscles and joints. If you are looking for gentle and non-invasive ways to improve your body’s function, try incorporating this natural thermal therapy into your daily life to discover the secret of Japanese healing.

Choose one day to prepare items for the entire week. Investing up front drastically cuts down on the overall time needed to whip up dishes when you’re hungry.
On meal prep day, you could choose to roast the chicken or buy one already roasted. Simply cut or strip it into portions for the whole week, and freeze.
