Strengthen Your Immune System

As we age, our immune response capability reduces, which can lead to potential infection and disease. Since our body uses food to extract nutrients that prevent disease, it’s important that our diets contain nutrient-rich foods for an overall stronger immune system. Antioxidant-rich foods help fight against free radicals that can cause damage to the body, whereas sugary foods generate an inflammatory response within the body, causing health issues and lowering the immune system. Foods high in antioxidants include berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, goji berries), red cabbage, beans, dark chocolate, pecans, spinach, carrots, and potatoes.

The Power of Homeopathy

Homeopathy has the power to change the course of life or death. On July 4th, my mom and I saved our dog from dying from anaphylaxis/poisoning from a wasp, using homeopathy. Homeopathy is energy medicine that quantum physics is just starting to explain the beautiful way it works. It has zero side effects and can work alongside prescriptions medications. It is powerful yet gentle at the same time. It is beneficial from the birth of a baby all the way to transitioning to death and everywhere in between. It can treat small first aid issues to acute emergency situations and help reverse chronic diseases that supposedly “have no cure”. In my opinion, it is the most powerful natural medicine known to man.

Protect Our Planet For Our Youth

For International Youth Day, let’s think about what we can do to protect our planet for our youth and future generations! We must replace toxic chemicals and pesticides with natural alternatives whenever possible. These are destroying our lakes, rivers and the soil our food grows in. We should reduce single-use plastics, so much of which has made its way to our oceans. Do your part by using natural cleaners at home and at work! Using a concentrate that you add your own water to, like Orange TKO, can save thousands of single-use bottles from our landfills and oceans!
