Healthy Habits Can Happen
Reminding other busy families that prioritizing health & happiness is a necessity and not a luxury. Taking care of our people, our pets & our planet ...
In my on-going efforts to make healthy choices for my family (including my black lab!) and valuing a happy & abundant life, I recently became a Life's Abundance Field Representative. I was introduced to the pet food line late last year and have been giving Ziggy (that black lab I mentioned earlier!) nothing else since.

Trust me ... I know how easy it is to ignore info like this, turn our heads and simply go on buying pretty packaged meats at the store and hamburgers in the drive-thru..

With warmer weather around the corner hydration is more important than ever!
KNOW what you are drinking & putting in your body.
A lot of my runner friends are geeking over this post-run drink option that hydrates like a 'sports drink' but without added sugar, artificial sweeteners or BVO (Google it ... It's nasty!).

A heartbreaking image of two abused dogs appearing to comfort each other has gone viral.
A 3-month-old boxer named "Sammie" was shot, dragged behind a car and spray painted, according to a post on a YouCaring fundraising page.
After Sammie arrived at the Paws & Claws Animal Clinic in Columbia, South Carolina, he was immediately befriended by fellow shelter dog Simon, who suffers from mange and extreme neglect.
"Sammie accepted Simon's soft touch and was grateful for the love and affection that Simon showed him," the post stated.
Caregivers said it was a perfect example of how "companion animals do feel pain and show compassion for others."

Like with so many things these days, there are simply not enough long-term SAFETY studies and I don't think it's okay to use an entire generation as a guinea pig.
As a family, we do not use ADHD drugs for our son and are fortunate to have a family doctor who recommends drugs of any kind as last resorts.
Behavioral therapy, of course, takes more time and effort and that's okay ... we are looking for long-term success and not a quick fix.
We aren't always consistent but we are doing our best to introduce healthy habits like guided meditation, reiki and outdoor activities.
Let's continue to provide our kids first with TOOLS to cope and not DRUGS. (and I like the idea the CDC is encouraging insurance companies to cover the costs of "tools!")
CDC warns that Americans may be overmedicating youngest children with ADHD An eyebrow-raising 75 percent of young children with ADHD received medications, according to the latest government statistics.

Yes ... even with flavors like bubblegum and lemonade, these e-cigs are NO GOOD for you. And they were being sold to minors!
Notice I said WERE being sold ... now the industry is being regulated and sales to minors are prohibited (some stated have already done this).
The Wild West of e-cigarettes just ended with a new, sweeping federal rule Here's what that means for the industry and public health.
I can't believe there are people who get a dog then simply chain it up outside ...

NEWSFLASH: ALL FISH OILS ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL!
Curious about adding a fish oil supplement to your routine?
Have questions about which one is best for you and your family?
Wondering what the benefits are?
Please read this very informative article.
Some important things to consider ...
*Independent third-party testing must be used to verify label claims, not the least of which is oxidation as that can quickly take a fish oil from therapeutic to flat-out unhealthy.
*International Fish Oil Standards program (or IFOS) is the best third-party tester and it's 5 Star Rating is the Gold Standard.
*Fish oil that is ultra-concentrated provides the most omega-3 fatty acids and EPA/DHA. Ultra-concentrated provides the most benefit while keeping you from experiencing GI Upset and those legendary fish-burps!
*Don't simply look at COST as paying more does not mean you are getting a better product. Look for "best value" ... lowest cost per gram EPA/DHA.
*And don't forget all mammals have a need for essential good fats, so remember to supplement your dogs and cats, too!
