I found a website that donates proceeds to help shelter dogs. They sell rootbeer...one of my favorite drinks. You can pick some up at Wholefoods. Here is their website:

Do you know where your food comes from? I am not a fan of reality shows because most of them are filled with drama and who can be meaner than the other, but Jamie Oliver has an informative show on Tuesday nights. Last episode he was taking on the LA Unified School District and the school lunches. From what I saw the kids might as well eat at the 7 Eleven! Everything was packaged in plastic, was full of sugar and had little to no nutritional value. Frankly, I was shocked. The kids don't even get regular milk...they get flavored milk...and when Jamie questioned the school board about it...they responded that kids won't drink regular milk! Well, they will if it's given to them.
There was another story about the problem with fast food...but in my opinion it isn't just fast food...I worked in restaurants for 13 years and they are not any healthier. Anyways, Jamie went to an independent fast food restaurant and let a customer choose between a healthier burger (the meat came from a cow that was grass fed) and a burger that came from a cow that was not. The customer liked the grass fed burger more but when asked if he would pay 1.50 more he chose the lower quality burger. Now that is a problem. People need to be educated or rather educate themselves because we know what happened when Oprah challenged the cattle industry!
Most Americans are not healthy and I am convinced it is our food that is the problem. I really don't see any big changes happening unless the consumer speaks with their wallets. The Internet is a valuable resource from learning about vitamins to finding a neighborhood organic restaurant. Ask your grocer where the food comes from and request healthier choices; if your school serves crap complain to the school board and meanwhile send your child with a lunch from home; support your local farmers market, especially the organic farmers.

I saw my radiologist yesterday and got great news! He said that I am doing very good and that the things I am dealing with are normal...the incontinence, aches and pains...my body is healing and that takes time. He also said that the treatment I went through was the most aggressive he does and that in the beginning he was not sure I could handle it... well, I did! Not bad for a 55 year old broad! I have to admit there were days I didn't know if I could do it. I strongly believe that it was and is still is a combination of my docs and their expertise, prayers from so many people, friends, family, my determination, and vitamins that helps me in my recovery. I truly am a walking miracle! xo Inge

A friend of mine swears by this, so I ordered some. I know that our problems stem from our diets...yes, I think genetics play a part, BUT if our bodies are healthy then we have a better chance of nipping these diseases in the bud...also exercise and keeping stress as low as possible helps. Since I got sick I took a news break and before that I was a CNN junkie...think about it our news is nothing more than gossip, opinions from overpaid pundits, and news that is sensationalized to get ratings...to get sponsors to sell us crap we don't need. Don't get me started with all the commercials selling drugs to keep men's dicks in good working order...how about all the antidepressants...along with all the endless serious side effects. Do you know what is in the food your eating? Do you care? I sure do! I just learned that one of my favorite foods, the potato, is saturated in pesticides and any so is any other vegetable that grows in the ground. My bargain food sometimes on sale for 77 cents for a 5 lb. bag is not a bargain after all. Now don't get me wrong, the effects do not happen overnight...it accumulates... so after 55 years of eating this food...well, you can imagine! From now on its organic or I leave it behind!
Hope you are well and think about what your eating before you eat it...better yet before you spend your hard earned money on it! And don't forget to laugh out loud! xo Inge
