Spring is finally here! And if you’re like me, you’re probably emerging from a winter’s hibernation spent cuddled up early on the couch every night. But as the days get longer, and you find yourself staying active later and later every evening, you might also find you need a little more umph to get you [...]

What’s in a Label?

2018-04-11T15:08:07-06:00

Have you ever stood in the supermarket staring at two packages of what seem to be the exact same food? Let’s take loaves of bread, for instance. They’re both brown and covered with seeds. One might say “great source of whole-grain” while the other says “multi-grain” or “made with ancient grains.” Just how are you [...]

Pre-, pro-, anti-, there are a lot of biotics to keep up with these days, and it can get mind boggling, to say the least. So, let’s break it down. “Biotic” literally means life, and in terms of science usually refers to bacteria. We all know that antibiotics are drugs that kill bacteria, but what [...]

Eat the Rainbow

We all know we’re supposed to eat our vegetables. Right? We’ve been told since childhood that they help us grow up big and strong. We have been told that five to nine servings should be our goal. Did you know, though, that it’s not just about how many vegetables you eat, but also what [...]
