Money can make you happy, as long as you are spending it on others, suggests a recent study. The researchers at the University of British Columbia and the Harvard business School found out that people who spend money on others report greater happiness than those who don’t, or those who spend money on themselves. The results held true regardless of people’s income. Read more »
NAET stands for Nambudripad’s (doctor’s name) Allergy Elimination Technique. This method is a completely natural and innovative way to treat allergies and although it sounds like hocus-pocus and doesn’t make a lot of sense to many, thousands claim that it works wonders. We tried it, because nothing else worked and it was so hard to see our child suffer. We were desperate and ready to try anything. We figured this method couldn’t hurt, because it was drug-free and therefore, worth a shot. Here is a story of how we found NAET and what it did for us. Read more »
To be honest I had no idea what ginger was and what it was used for until I got pregnant. I always associated ginger with Christmas and gingerbread men, and never really thought of what ginger meant. When my doctor recommended organic ginger for my morning sickness, due to the inborn skepticism I decided to do some research first. What I found out impressed me and since then ginger became our inseparable companion. Read more »
If you are reading this, good chances are that you are pregnant. Congratulations! Despite the morning sickness and everything you might be going through, this is a wonderful and unforgettable experience. To make this experience even better, let’s make your pregnancy as organic as possible.
Firstly, remember about nutrition. Eat organic foods which are packed with vitamins and nutrients. Spinach and asparagus might be the last thing you crave and you might feel much happier crunching chips and chocolate truffles, but remember, it is not only about you now. Read more »
We all were told hundreds of thousands of times, that eating fruits and vegetables is important. The famous food pyramid suggests consuming 5 servings of veggies a day, but how many of us are actually doing it?
How to shop organic on a budget Part 1
Part 2:
7. Eat reasonable portions. Foreigners are usually shocked by the portions Americans eat. If you eat only when you are hungry and don’t overeat, you can save a great amount of money. It is always better to eat one organic apple than 3 non-organic ones, even if the organic one might be more expensive (although it doesn’t have to be if you are using co-op or shopping at local farmer’s markets).
8. If you are too lazy or suspicious to join co-ops and look for farmer’s markets, shop grocery stores selectively. There are certain non-organic foods, such as bananas or avocados, which tend to be lower in pesticide levels and therefore, are relatively safe. Foods like apples and potatoes have the highest levels of pesticide residue, so it is really important to buy them organic. Read more »
We all are aware of green tea and its health benefits. But what about black tea? Does black tea offer us anything besides its taste?
Most of my friends drink black tea as a coffee substitute and think that its only benefit, besides the taste, is caffeine. Thankfully, this assumption is incorrect. Read more »
Our happy boy now. Aidan after NAET
Part 3 HERE
To be honest, we hadn’t noticed any difference after the 1st treatment, but I guess we didn’t really expect it to work this soon. Plus, we still were pretty skeptical.
The next week we brought Aidan for another appointment. The doctor rechecked him for breast milk and said he passed the treatment. Next step was checking and treating him for the so-called egg mix. His egg allergy was one of the worst, according to RAST tests, and NAET confirmed it. Aidan was allergic to egg mix on all 4 levels. We did the treatment, after which we were supposed to avoid eggs for 25 hours. Read more »
Many people think that Green vacation means sleeping in a tree house or running through a jungle. While there is nothing wrong with one or the other, you can do much less extreme things and still green your vacation.

According to a recent study, hair is one of the first things that both men and women notice in the opposite sex. If this is the case, we better give it the best treatment.
Most Americans wash their hair every day, even though it is not recommended by doctors. The more you “lather, rinse, repeat” or in other words are exposed to a product with harmful ingredients, the more chances that you will get side effects from it. If you use non-organic shampoo, next time you shower read what the label says. Oh better go do it right now… Read more »
