DID YOU KNOW… that women exposed to cadmium through their diets have a higher chance of developing breast cancer? Cadmium is a carcinogen that can leach into crops from fertilizers when rainfall or sewage sludge is deposited onto fields. Be careful when purchasing potatoes and whole grains, as these two are on the top of the list of crops affected by cadmium. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/04/02/toxic-parabens-on-breast-cancer-patients.aspx?np=true

Many Medications Remain Safe and Effective Well Past Their Expiration Dates

Now, as you know, I am not a big fan of using prescription drugs for just about any reason. I don’t take them and none of my family are on them. However, I realize that many reading this are in a transition phase or simply unwilling to get off of them at this time.

The information in this article can save you enormous amounts of money if you are throwing away your medications because you are following the inaccurately listed expiration dates on the prescription bottle.

The “nutrition versus drugs” debate has been going on for decades. But there’s no doubt in my mind which is the clear winner. LIKE if you believe that eating the right food—-organic and non-GMO—-makes a difference!

DID YOU KNOW… that clothing made from non-organic cotton and other fabric may contain health-damaging substances called nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs)? NPEs are often discharged to waterways from textile factories. When NPEs enter the environment, they break down into an endocrine-disrupting chemical called nonylphenol (NP). NP accumulates in sediments and in wildlife. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/04/12/toxic-chemicals-on-laundry-detergent.aspx?np=true
