Let’s talk about something simple that can completely shift your health:

 If you can’t find it on the grocery store shelf, even if you can pronounce it — don’t eat it.

No, I’m not just calling out charcuterie boards (though we should probably talk about those processed meats..).

This one rule can change your digestion, your hormones, your skin, and your energy — because what we don’t eat matters just as much as what we do.

Your Body Recognizes Food, Not Chemicals

Here’s the thing: your body isn’t designed to process chemicals. It’s designed to use nutrients as information.

Every meal you eat sends signals to your hormones, gut, and metabolism. Real food tells your body to energize, repair, and detox naturally. Processed, chemical-laden food? That just confuses your system — and over time, leads to inflammation, cravings, bloating, and burnout.

That’s why it’s time to look at what’s really hiding behind those “healthy-looking” labels.

A Heartfelt Truth

I say this with compassion in the most kind hearted way possible — not as a “know it all,” but as someone who has personally been devastated by cancer.  I know this topic might stir up emotions or even get me a little backlash, but it’s a conversation that’s too important to ignore.

Are Parasites and Cancer the Same Thing?

Not all cancer is caused by parasites — and not all parasites are cancer.

You’ve probably seen dramatic claims on Google or social media, but the truth lies somewhere in between.

Here’s what we do know: cancer cells are always being created in the body. Your immune system’s job is to detect and destroy them before they become dangerous. But when that system gets suppressed or overloaded, your body can miss those signals — and that’s where parasites can quietly play a role.

How Parasites Can Contribute to Cancer Risk

Parasites can:

• Suppress your immune system

• Create chronic inflammation and tissue irritation

• Blindfold you

Ever lay in bed with your mind racing, heart thumping, and sleep nowhere in sight? You’re not alone. Nighttime anxiety is incredibly common—and incredibly frustrating. The day’s done, your to-do list is (mostly) complete, and yet your body feels like it’s stuck in go-mode.

But the good news? You can calm your nervous system, naturally. You just need the right tools to send the “it’s safe to relax” signal to your brain.

Here are six simple, holistic strategies to help reduce nighttime anxiety and finally get the rest your body deserves:

1. Limit Screen Time Before Bed 

Blue light from screens messes with melatonin production—the hormone your body needs to fall asleep. It tricks your brain into thinking it’s still daylight, making it harder to wind down.

What to do:
Shut down screens at least 1 hour before bed. If you have to use your phone or computer, try wearing blue light-blocking glasses or turning on “night mode.” Even better—swap scrolling for reading, journaling, or a c...

So what is the major must have mineral you're probably missing?

It's Magnesium!!

 Discover the incredible benefits of magnesium and how it can enhance your overall health and well-being. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in numerous bodily functions, including nerve function, muscle relaxation, and energy production.

With today's modern and fast-paced lifestyle, many individuals may not be getting enough magnesium through their diets alone. This is where supplementation comes in, offering a convenient way to make up for any dietary deficiencies.

The benefits of magnesium are vast and varied. Not only does it promote a healthy heart by regulating blood pressure and preventing cardiovascular disease, but it also supports healthy brain function, promotes better sleep, and even aids in relieving stress and anxiety.

Additionally, magnesium is crucial for maintaining strong bones and teeth, optimizing digestion, and supporting a healthy metabolism. It can even ...
