Got Milk?


If you or your family drink milk...

Bovine somatotropin (BST) is a protein hormone naturally produced in the pituitary glands of cattle. Monsanto developed a recombinant version, rBST, by using a genetically engineered E. coli bacteria. Sold under the brand name “Posilac,” it is injected into cows to boost milk output in the short term. 

Here is a documentary you may want to watch to make safe decisions about not only your dairy products but safeguard the health of yourself and your loved ones. 

Disclaimer: What you're about to see might turn your stomach. (preview before you share with your children, it may be too scary for them)

Tip: If you don't have time to watch...hit the "transcript" to read it instead

Get Lathered Up About What Is In Your Soap & Shampoo


Do you really know what you are slathering all over your body?
How many chemicals are you absorbing with each shower?
Did you know that what goes on, goes in, your body?

  • perfumes/colognes
  • soaps
  • powders
  • deodorants
  • shampoo
  • hair color
  • makeup
  • nail polish
  • hairspray
  • gel/mousse
  • insect repellant
  • sunscreen
  • tanning oil/spray tan
Fact: Our European neighbors are right on top of it. They have restricted over 1300 substances from being used in personal care items. In the US it is only 11. 
Fact: The FDA leaves the companies to regulate themselves...how is that working for us?
Fact: If there is a customer claim made regarding harm the product has caused, the companies don't have to report that to the FDA.
Fact: If a product is deemed unsafe, the FDA can't even order that it be recalled.

So what should you get lathered about??
Now, you don't know, if anything you are using is going to cause you cancer, metabolic disorders, mental disorders....and it's not just adults, it's even our babies and children's products that we need to monitor carefully. READ THE LABELS...We are living in an age of toxic overload. We are getting sicker by the day. Younger and younger people are in the obituary columns...HELLO...time to WAKE UP!

Here is my SIMPLY HEALTHY recommendation. Stick to the simple things your grandmother used to use.
  • Castile Soap for bathing
  • Baking Soda for washing clothes
  • Essential Oils for scenting anything
  • Coconut Oil to soften, lubricate or tan your skin
  • Seek out Holistic nurses and doctors for advisement & support
  • Learn everything you can about what you are putting on or in your body
  • DO IT NOW-CALL OR MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO TALK TO ME
