Have you ever tried millet ? Millets have numerous health benefits, including helping to lower your blood sugar and cholesterol levels. They’re also gluten-free, so people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities can enjoy them. This did not spike my glucose levels. I had 1/4 cup cooked, to be safe.

Part of our wellness is learning how to grieve. It’s been 7 weeks since my husband, Walter passed away from lymphoma. Some thoughts:

Doing the work.
I’ve never experienced such a variety of emotions all at once.
As she (Kris Carr) prepared to launch her book, I listened to many of her interviews and they comforted me as I braced myself for the inevitable.
What got me through the first month was her outlook about the void, saying “I will not focus on the void , but on the presence of energy transformed.” Walter loved it too, when I shared it with him before he passed.
Now the book is here and I’m ready for the journey, especially after this 7th week, which hit a little harder.
Thank you to my girlfriends for buying me the book and the guide to journal, as I move through grief, and everything that comes with it.

Not too long ago, a group of doctors and public health experts at Massachusetts General Hospital noticed something striking: Many of the patients who routinely showed up in the emergency room requiring the most medical services were also the patients who seemed to be the most nutritionally vulnerable.

They were patients with heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and other largely food-related chronic diseases. For hospitals and health insurers, these are among the highest cost, highest-need patients. Working with a local nonprofit group called Community Services, the doctors decided to launch a study to see whether providing these patients with nutritious meals would have an impact on their healthcare outcomes.

The researchers recruited Medicaid and Medicare patients and split them into different groups. One group received regular deliveries of healthy meals that were made from scratch and designed by a registered dietitian: Each meal contained ingredients like locally caught seafood and locally grown Brussels sprouts, tomatoes, zucchinis, fruits and other fresh produce that nearby farms donated. Another group received nutritious meals, but they weren’t specifically tailored to their individual medical needs. The third group did not receive any of the nutritious meal deliveries. What the study found in the ensuing weeks was astonishing. The two groups that had nutritious meals had fewer hospital visits, ultimately resulting in a 16 percent reduction in their health care costs. And that was after deducting meal expenses.

The average monthly medical costs for a patient in the nutrition group shrank to about $843—much lower than the roughly $1,413 in medical costs for each patient in the control group.

These types of groups recognize what our federal government sadly does not: To tackle the crisis, our national food policies must be aligned with our healthcare policies. Instead of just treating rampant chronic diseases, we have to start preventing them—and we can do that with our forks.

“A key aspect of emotional maturity is making healthy sacrifices that support your long term well being more than your short term pleasure. More than anything, give yourself what you need, instead of what you crave.” Yung Pueblo, from the book, Lighter.

When looking at cancer statistics for recovery, prognosis and outcomes, you’re looking at data from research by the drug manufacturers to show the effectiveness of their chemotherapy. This is what the oncologists have access to.
The people who use wellness, lifestyle and nutrition who are living their lives, don’t appear in any of these statistics.
If you want to hear testimonies from those who are living with cancer or are in remission because of wellness therapies, you can find them by following several people like: Chris Wark from Chris Beat Cancer, or the Radical Remission Project, and Kris Carr, etc.
You can also # the particular illness you’re dealing with and find testimonies on social media.
Expand your research and never give up!

This week it’s all about the Fourth of July! It’s a fun holiday filled with games, friends and/or family, and lots of patriotic red, white and blue foods. Red, white and blue foods can both be super healthy and also a bit less healthy, depending on how much extra and added artificial colors, flavors and other things are present in the foods. For many of us, eating less healthfully can feel like it’s a given on a holiday like July 4th, but with some care and thought, it doesn’t have to be! https://ow.ly/Gngw50OZpU0
