* I am skeptical of alternative treatments for cancer, because I know people who've tried them without success. Regardless, this article on doctors admitting they put people on chemo when they don't need it gives lots of food for thought.

* Do you have the weed Stinging Nettle in your area? Did you know it's a super food, and highly medicinal? (My naturopath just recommended it for spring allergies, but it has many other uses.) And the best time of year to harvest it is spring. Click here for more information about this super weed!
* Did you know that makeup can drastically change your hormones and may cause other health problems? And teen girls may be particularly sensitive.
