Thousands of women wake up every morning and wonder what is wrong with them....really. The reason: They have not found the right health care provider and information to identify the culprit that steals their health.

I recently came across some interesting supplement information on Dr. Mercola's website. There is a significant "buzz" going on right now about antioxidants and the importance of getting them in your diet.

This topic is so important for understanding how our bodies actually work, how they get healthy, and how they stay that way. We have a few more detoxing tips for you today.

Oranges have been a popular holiday gift for a long time. I can remember getting huge boxes full of fresh, Florida Valencias almost every year as a child. The only downfall was that many times we couldn't eat them all before they went bad.

Every one knows there are certain things that the body needs to survive and thrive; these include water, oxygen, and nourishment. However, our bodies have other crucial requirements that most people have never even heard of; one of these widely missed components are enzymes. I was one of those people…and I am a doctor.

Today I want to talk to you about products- the ones that help us reach our health potential. Recently, I have been getting into organic personal care products and some natural therapies, especially in the aromatherapy category. To some the thought of getting healthy because of some scent is preposterous at best.

Wellness Wednesday: Beating Inflammation If you have been keeping up with my 90 Day Health Challenge, than you know that I have a problem with inflammation. It causes headaches (ones that last much longer than they should), sore muscles and joints, and a fatigue that makes exercise difficult to say the least.

I was first introduced to dry skin brushing years ago by a friend and have utilized the technique ever since. The first thing you should know is it has nothing to do with the hair on your body (unless your man looks like an ape and needs that type of grooming). Dry skin brushing is an easy, inexpensive way to invigorate your health.

Go figure I woke up with sinuses that had decided to work overtime making snot...don't feel so well. But that's OK; I'm going to practice what I preach and utilize some natural products and therapies for my cold.

You know they say "Love is a battlefield;" well, what about just trying to stay alive and healthy in this toxin-infested world of ours. Yes, it's beautiful and all, but living on Earth in it's present state is causing us to die. Prematurely.

Here it is 7-something PM, and I am just now posting. Well, I apologize for the delay, but honestly, I'm glad that 1) my Internet modem was down; 2) my laptop needs a new mother board; and 3) my husband took his laptop to work for a Power Point presentation. You see, I got to spend a wonderful day of rest with my Missy Moo (the toddler girl) playing, eating, walking, and slumbering; which brings me to the topic of this post...rest and sleep.

Ladies, here it is. I'm going to give you this information with a sincere hope that you believe it is real. Recently, I was told that there is technology coming as soon as early January 2010 that will change the anti-aging market as we know it. Part of it is already on the market through the 25-year-old company Nu Skin.

The search for the fountain of youth is never ending. Unfortunately, our flow of expendable cash for the quest is not...at least mine isn't. I do believe in quality, however. Skimping on skin care and anti-aging is not an option for me as I care a great deal about my body. Having said that, I don't mean that I will spend food money on products or services either. There is a balance that must come when investing in your health and beauty.

This week we will be focusing on our "mugs". That's right, our faces. We are going to take a look at some things you can do for the gal that's staring back at you in the mirror. Some of these techniques are down home remedies; some are a little more sophisticated; and some are so high tech that you will barely believe they are possible until you try them.

This week has been one of self-evaluation for me. I attended two health/anti-aging seminars that absolutely shattered my delusional mind-set that I was actually healthy. It's like the denial that comes when you know that you've gained weight but think if you don't get on the scale it won't be true. Well, I was doing that with my state of health.
