If you or anyone in your family drinks soy milk or eats soybean products please pay attention. Today I’m sharing trusted brands — those producers of soy products that support quality products and provide full disclosure on how they’re produced. There are many companies that are more interested in profit rather than our health… and they love to play around with words like “natural” when they market products. As I always strive to do, I’ll empower you with the knowledge necessary to make informed decisions in the marketplace. Let’s get the facts on brands!

by Diana
Time to read: 2 minutes.

Here’s how to tell
by Diana
Fact:
80 Percent of Americans Have No Idea Which Foods Contain Trans Fats
Read time: 2 minutes. As reported in NaturalNews, most people in the United States now know that they should avoid trans fats but few actually know which foods contain the dangerous ingredients. Example: food companies selling things like potato chips and fried snack goods stop frying and slap “baked” on the label — they take frying totally out of the equation. Bingo — their product becomes health food. Right? Wrong! Consider the actual ingredients — not just what may be added during the cooking process. Read on and I’ll show you who to easily, quickly decide what a healthy snack looks like in the shopping isle. Here’s how to read the label AND know what to look for. Click to continue…

A glass of milk or a glass of kale smoothie?
by Diana
Time to read: Less than a minute. What would you choose to offer to your child? A glass of milk or a glass of kale smoothie? Which has the most benefit… the most digestible form calcium? What if I told you milk wasn’t “all that” and your kids can and will crave kale. You’d probably call me crazy but I assure you milk can be dangerous, is NOT a good source of calcium (based on our body’s inability to extract the calcium from the milk and it’s low level to begin with!) and I can convince kids to crave kale smoothies.
Kale is ranked as one of the world’s healthiest foods. This powerful cancer-fighting agent is a member of the cabbage family and loaded with phytonutrients. But the health benefits don’t stop there! Kale is often called the “king of calcium” and is loaded with vitamins A and C. Is it a better source of calcium than milk? Hmmm… Click to continue…

Does this sound familiar to you? Do you hear yourself when you read these words? Do you battle with this every single day? Does your child ever eat those very important dark green leafy vegetables?
