Asparagus – Who knew?

Posted by Millers Organic Farm on 4/1/2017 to Cancer

This is from a friend:

My Mom had been taking the full-stalk canned style asparagus that she pureed and she took 4 tablespoons in the morning and 4 tablespoons later in the day. She did this for over a month. She is on chemo pills for stage 3 lung cancer in the pleural area and her cancer cell count went from 386 down to 125 as of this past week. Her oncologist said she does not need to see him for 3 months.

Foundation of Youth: Prevent Skin Aging Naturally

Posted by Shayne Gipe of Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation on 9/12/2016 to LifeStyle

As we get older, many of the concerns we have for our skin are aesthetic ones: wrinkles, spots, and loss of elasticity. These signs can also be highly indicative of our overall internal health, beyond what meets the eye. Our skin is not a simple outer layer which covers and contains our anatomy, but is actually the largest vital organ we possess. It is composed of many complex nerve, gland, and tissue systems that work in synergy to defend the body against disease. Practicing excellent skin health is imperative, not only to retain its radiant and youthful appearance throughout our later years, but also to support its important role as a barrier between ourselves and the environment. The best and easiest way to do this is from the inside out. Thus, an ideal skin care regimen begins with a highly nourishing diet.

Are you an “Healthy human”, “Superhuman” or a “Ticking Stress Bomb”?

Posted by Ximena Gonzalez on 8/29/2016 to Tips

Summer is is over. School is back on. Work schedules tighten up again. Yes, being busy, overwhelmed and tired has been glamorized! Somehow people learned to get their sense of worth based on what they do, how much they do and how tired they are as a result of their “doing”.

During conversations it´s not rare to hear people “complaining” about how stressed they are. However the complaint quickly turns into a competition for who is juggling more while attaching a sense of pride to it. Typically the winner is the “superhuman” the person who is juggling the most with the least time to eat, sleep and take care of other basic “human” needs.

Stop! What You’re Eating Could Be Making You Sick

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 8/20/2016 to Food

But did you know that not having a healthy diet can actually make you sick? You could be deteriorating your body as we speak simply by not being aware of what it is you’re putting in your body.

Is Your (Healthy) Food Making You Sick?

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 8/18/2016 to Diet

Even the seemingly “healthiest” organic, raw, anti-inflammatory superfoods like wild Alaskan salmon, kale, garlic, apple, broccoli or any other food can provoke “sensitivity” reactions. Medical Research has shown that sensitivities to foods and food-chemicals can lead to a wide array of painful symptoms and chronic health problems. If food sensitivities are at the root of your health problems and you don’t address them, then no matter what else you do to get better, your health problems will remain.

Conscious Eating for Healthy Living

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 8/11/2016 to Diet

In the search for wellness and a successful life, we cannot stress enough the importance of pursuing a healthy lifestyle. Think about it: your body, mind and spirit are part of a delicate, interconnected system. If one fails, the other two are bound to crumble. What happens to your body will inevitably affect your state of mind and your spirit will certainly become restless if you’re not physically well. Becoming conscious of what you eat and learning the best way to nourish your body will go a long way in helping restore and maintain the balance you seek in your life.

What Makes Holistic Nutrition Better?

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 7/28/2016 to Food

In today’s day and age a lot of what we do has to do with what is trendy. A topic gets noticed and suddenly it’s all anyone talks about. But there’s much more to holistic nutrition than just a trend. It’s actually anything but a trend. Being holistic affects the way you make decisions every day. It means understanding that everything is part of a bigger whole, including us. As individuals, we are crucial to the balance and harmony of the world around us. The way we relate to it will directly affect our well-being. Why? Because we’re all interconnected.

DYING TO BE BEAUTIFUL IS SO LAST SEASON!

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 6/1/2016 to Tips

Summer is cooooooming!!! And this, my dear Healthies, will be the first of a new summer series celebrating beauty and and love for our bodies. If you do not take care of YOU....then who will??? If you do not take care of YOUr body...then where will "YOU" live??? Why do we so often prioritize everything else other than our own well-being? Being healthy and taking care of our bodies, should be more important than a new sofa or TV? So WHY is it sometimes so difficult to love ourselves, the way we would love others to love us?

Want Milk?

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 5/31/2016 to Food

Raw milk gets a terrible reception in the media – at times it seems to be blamed for all the health problems in the USA. Is it really the devil in disguise or is something else going on? Quite possibly, you have seen or heard the recent attacks on Millers Farm in this regard. The short answer is that like most real food, your choice comes down to source and processing, with a little bit of big business chiming in.

Why Organic and Ecological?

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 4/9/2016 to Food

That’s the question on many people’s minds, especially when they’re faced with the sometimes conflicting opinions about the value of ecological products and the eco lifestyle. The truth is that the benefits of choosing to go ecological are many, and they are compelling enough to overthrow those who think eco foods and products are not worth the buzz.

Organic and Ecological Really Is the Smart and Healthy Way

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 4/5/2016 to Diet

A lot has been said over the years both for and against organic/eco food and the organic/eco lifestyle. Supporters of all things ecological claim them to be the key to healthier living and boast about their many benefits while others complaint that it is all a hoax. The truth is that after all is said and done, there is scientific proof and testimony supporting that ecological products and the ecological lifestyle are in fact highly beneficial for you and can significantly improve your health and overall wellness.

Rebirth of Nature: The Pagan Roots of Easter

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 4/4/2016 to Cultural

Easter marks THE most important celebration of the year for many religions. With all due respect to everyone celebrating the religious significance, today, I would like to share with you a beautiful article by my friend, Marysia Miernowska focusing on the TRADITIONAL significance. The beautiful connection to Mother Earth celebrated by the Old Pagan traditions: end of cold winters, birds laying eggs, wildflowers popping up and fruit trees are blossoming as bees and butterflies swirl in the breeze. People are falling in love, planting seeds in their gardens, cleaning their homes and decorating them with flowers. Fertility, new beginnings, hope, and beauty are being called in.

Is Eating Out Eating Out You?

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 3/18/2016 to Diet

Eating out may be eating out your stomach, your liver, your heart, and your lungs. Because of our busy schedules, many of us find ourselves eating out several times a week; some of us eat out almost every meal.

Restaurant food is some of the most processed food you can put in your mouth. The commercial fake food arrives in big-food company trucks (90 percent of all restaurants get virtually the same food) and is lovingly prepared using can openers and microwaves.

Gotta LOVE: The Benefits of Raw Cow Butter

Posted by Niki Adamkova on 3/11/2016 to Food

Many people avoid eating butter with the belief that it’s full of “evil” saturated fats. But Dr. Joseph Mercola, Paul Chek and the Western A. Price Foundation clarify that butter and saturated fats promote health. Old-fashioned raw butter from grass-fed cows’ milk contains conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which helps fight diseases like cancer, diabetes and also helps you lose weight. This time of the year is the best opportunity to stock up on the dark yellow wonderful butter and GHEE from Amos' Farm.
