Gluten-Free Cornbread Dressing Gluten-free cornbread dressing has been a blessing since I learned that I am gluten-intolerant. You will not feel like you are missing out on anything. It tastes so much better than using gluten-free bread. Especially when gluten-free bread is typically made of low-quality ingredients such as rice, tapioca, or potato starch. It can be frustrating maneuvering through daily life much less the holidays. This is my go-to recipe for Thanksgiving dinner. 2 1/2 lbs gluten-free cornbread (I use the recipe on the Bob's Red Mill cornmeal package) 3 Tablespoons coconut oil 1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery 1/2 cup finely chopped carrot 1 tablespoon dried…

More muscle can save your life What’s the difference between a dreary life of frustration, pain and chronic anxiety and a life of enjoyment, options, less stress and no pain? Properly performed exercise is the vehicle that will move you towards this level of fulfillment. If you are looking to buy a book on exercise, I highly recommend Body By Science by Doug McGuff M.D and John Little. The book explains the what, why and how of strength training that is backed by scientific research. The eleven chapters contain a wealth of information including graphs and diagrams (great for us visual folks). Some of the benefits of this…

This Fitness Concept Challenges the Norm Evansville, Indiana's Flex151 is a workout facility and training concept that challenges everything I thought I knew about strength training. The training concept is based on a once-a-week, high intensity ~15 minute session. Yes, you read it right, once-a-week. My workouts were in desperate need of a change as I wasn’t seeing progress. Therefore, I was more than willing to experience a free session that would only take me approximately 15 minutes to complete and weekly! The challenge in adopting most new programs especially exercise/strength training is the learning curve and time element. That’s why this one was so intriguing. Is anyone…

Chlorophyll is one of the top-selling dietary supplements worldwide. Chlorophyll has been used to detoxify and deodorize the body and to support gastrointestinal health. These health benefits are complemented by a pleasant taste in the case of Liquid Chlorophyll. A major component of chlorophyll is the green-colored, water-soluble chlorophyllin. Researchers at the prestigious Oregon State University Linus Pauling Institute have found that chlorophyllin can potentially be used successfully to prevent and treat cancer. Their findings, published in the International Journal of Cancer, showed that chlorophyllin inactivates a cellular enzyme called ribonucleotide reductase (1). This enzyme is needed by cells to produce DNA, the core substance essential for cell…
