Worried Your Child Isn't Getting Enough DHA (Or You For that Matter) BrainStrong Review

Image
When it comes to being a mom, I want to be the best I can for Broxton.  I want to know that I did everything I could to make him reach all the potential I know he has in him. I have heard that he needs Omega - 3  DHA (and good for me, it does like Salmon from time to time.)   I was recently contacted to see if I was interested in BrainStrong .   Well, with a name like that, you know you peaked my curiosity!   So, I had to go check out their site. FROM THEIR SITE:    BrainStrong is an entirely new category of supplement. It’s a full line of brain health products that recognizes the brain has different needs at every stage of life. That’s why BrainStrong provides four natural, essential daily supplements with optimized DHA nourishment for pregnant women, toddlers, kids and adults. And all BrainStrong products are powered by  life'sDHA™ . After all, no matter what your age, you want to live up to your potential.   ...

Have You Noticed Kraft Milk Bites in Your Refrigerated Section?

Image
As a mom, I am sometimes rushed... Or, sometimes things come up and I can not always do as planned... I have been sick for a bit now, at first, I thought it was just allergies and did not really worry about it (besides the over the counter medicines...) but finally, the pain was too much and I had to go to the doctor... I have a bad sinus infection and a "horrible ear infection" going on... Not fun. That being said, I have been out of it a bit around here...  I mean, I was in PAIN.  Like, I felt my head was about to explode off of my body... Wonder why I am telling you all of this? Just to lead up to telling you about a life saver this last week or so... Kraft Milk Bites . Have you seen them?  Have you tried them? It is actually made with Real Milk... they are in the refrigerated area of your stores. We received the Strawberry and the Chocolate ones for review. Now, I am not one that gets up and makes homemade waffles ...

Aloha Friday: School Lunch

Image
It's Friday! Welcome to Aloha Friday!  I am linking up with Kailani and hope you will as well.  From Kailani's blog: Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday. In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too.   My question this week is a bit for advice: If you were to pack a lunch for a toddler to take to school.. What would you pack?  There can be no peanut products at all... Have a great weekend!!!!

Nutritional Tips for Healing

You can read my Topricin Review here...  But, I wanted to share an email I received from them the other day: --------------------------- In the Northern hemisphere, it’s now peak time for the flu and colds, which grip millions of Americans each year. And contrary to common belief, the best way to combat viruses and bacteria is not in your medicine cabinet – it’s in your kitchen. Topical BioMedics, makers of Topricin Pain Relief and Healing Cream, has partnered with Roufia Payman, the director of outpatient nutritional services at Northern Dutchess Hospital in Rhinebeck, NY, to provide a list of nutritional tips for top immunity-boosting foods that can help you achieve optimum healing and wellness. We’ve all heard the saying “Starve a fever and feed a cold”…Or is it, “Feed a fever and starve a cold?” The actual phrase, which dates back to the middle 1500s, claims we should starve a fever and feed a cold. But there’s no reason to be confused because the good news...
