Hi!
Want to hear about an inexpensive natural remedy you can buy in your grocery store? Try Oil Pulling! Never heard of it? I had not either, but it sounds like it could be for real.
Just swish 1 tablespoon of either sesame oil or sunflower oil in your mouth for 15-20 minutes before breakfast. Use only cold pressed oil. I like sesame oil better myself. Then spit the remnants of the oil in the toilet. The idea is that the oil absorbs toxins from the body, so you don’t want it in the sink. Then brush your teeth and rinse out your mouth.
I have done this 10-20 times and notice that my skin and lips were much moister.
But if you look on the website http://www.oilpulling.com/, you will find all kinds of health claims by a doctor and lots of testimonials. Serious ones! Some claim whiter teeth, relief from joint pain, moister skin, even reversal of serious disease.

The Aloe Vera plant is very common and can be grown in the backyard in warmer climates or its stalks purchased in grocery stores. It is amazingly effective for many common ailments. The live plant contains Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Zinc. At our local chain grocery store, we can buy the aloe stalk for $1.99 each. We have learned an easy way to use the aloe gel in the plant for everyday health.
Place the aloe stalk on its back, the plumper side. With a sharp knife, fillet the underside with three cuts, one along the center and one on each side. Use the knife to slice the two outer layers away. Now, use a large spoon to scoop all the gel out and put it in a blender. Add a small amount of ice and water and blend until smooth. This makes enough for two drinks. It is best taken on an empty stomach.

We just had a major winter storm last week and many areas are cold and snowy still.
Chicken soup and broth are very warming when you are cold, but we love to make a chicken bone broth for the additional health benefits.
What’s the difference between chicken broth and bone broth?
Chicken broth is made faster than bone broth and may not use bones to make the broth.
Bone broth uses bones, vegetables and seasonings and is slow simmered for at least a full day (using a pot or slow cooker). By simmering for a long period of time, nutritious compounds and minerals (such as collagen, glucosamine, amino acids, calcium and more) are released into the broth.
What are the benefits of Bone Broth?
