Don’t Your Pets Deserve to be Healthy Too?
The word ‘Probiotics‘ has been finally getting some coverage over the last year.
If you are not familiar with Probiotics – they are the ‘friendly‘ or ‘good‘ bacteria that live in the digestive tract. They help by ‘eating up‘ the bad bacteria that can lead to ill health.
Antibiotics and environmental toxins are just two of the ways the ‘good’ gut bacteria can be reduced, resulting in suppressed immune system function.
Don’t forget your animals and pets – they need nutrition too.
Frequency Foods understands the nutritional needs of your pets and include a superior blend of friendly flora (good bacteria) specifically produced for their health needs.
Don’t your beloved pets deserve the same benefits you get from taking probiotics?

Still Need a Reason to Give Up Diet Soda?
While reading my weekly Dr. Mercola newsletter – I came across this article – One Woman’s Astonishing Experiment With Aspartame.
As curious as I am about how toxic substances affect the body, I never thought of performing my own scientific experiment on rats. However, I do have to say ‘good for her’. By seeing the disgusting effects of Aspartame, it may have saved her family a lot of health problems. Take a look at the article and especially the picture of the tumors on the rats and remember it whenever you reach for a diet soda!
I know there is nothing like a diet soda especially to those of you who consume many of them. But there is a way to substitute, making the transition off of them a little easier. Check out my previous post – Miss Soda? You Don’t Have To!
for a healthier version of soda.
Years ago, before my eyes were opened to the truth about food, I dumped Aspartame in my iced tea. After viewing this article, I am thrilled that artificial sweeteners are no longer a part of my diet. It is definitely worth the few minutes it will take you to read it!

Chunky Black Bean Vegetable Dip
A friend shared a version of this recipe with me years ago.
Along with some organic blue corn chips, my daughter and I love it! And it is a great way to get more raw veggies into our diet!
I don’t measure – just eye what looks good while chopping.
The ingredients are in the order what we use from most to the least. The flavors and textures of fresh veggies is enough for my taste buds, but if you like spice add something else you enjoy- such as chilies.
Using organic produce is best – especially with the red pepper.
Combine:
*Tomato
*Red Pepper
*Yellow Pepper
*Cucumber
*Avocado
*Green Pepper
*Red Onion
Chop and combine in a bowl.
Squeeze a lime over it and stir to coat.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Stir in the desired amount of black beans (1/2 a can for a smaller batch, whole can for a larger batch)
(It is best when served fresh or after being refrigerated for about 4 hours. After 24 hrs, the avocado begins to turn and the vegetables become very soft.)
Because of the mildness – children will love it too!
Enjoy!

Would You Put Poision in Your Child’s Mouth? Are You Without Even Knowing It?
This is just ONE example of cited research that tells us that fluoride is not what we thought it was. Many other examples cite the dangers and how it can lead to a host of health problems.
I for one will not take that chance. My daughter has not used a fluoride containing toothpaste for over 4 years. She has NEVER had a cavity and always has wonderful 6 month checkups!
