This is a fave smoothie of mine that helps ward off inflammation and gives a good boost of energy in the morning. For some it’s an acquired taste but I love it; if you find you prefer some almond or rice milk to help add some creaminess to it you can do so, but keep that to a minimum. […]

Is gluten-free a healthier option?

Comments Off on Is gluten-free a healthier option?

Is a gluten-free diet a healthier diet? Thats a question I get asked often, and one that I see debated over and over online. Turns out it totally depends on who you ask. For example, if you follow the Elizabeth Hasselback way of living gluten-free, you will simply replace your previous gluten-ful life with the now readily available gluten-free counterparts. Gone […]

Not without your help! There’s a petition circulating online to help rise awareness of the need for allergen-free friendly items, and I know as a former girl scout myself that not tasting those delectable thin mints and tagalongs is quite disappointing. So for those of you who wish to help, you can read the cause below from Change.org and click […]

Comments Off on Fritata Aleta, easy and delish!

I ran across this recipe in the User-submitted Cookbook from Mark’s Daily Apple and loved it for its ease of making, and the fact that it’s packed with a much needed protein punch in the morning. I always make sure my 7 year old son starts his day with some protein to help fuel his day, and this is one that’s great to […]

A friend sent me this recipe from Kitchen Addiction as a great idea for a sweet/salty treat, and suggested they would make nice home-made gifts too, and I have to admit that home-made gifts have that special touch store-bought gifts can lack and I personally love a home-made gift.  You can wrap them in some cellophane and […]

Today, on The Lighter Side

Posted by: Jennifer Mansfield Categories: Blog posts Daily Posts The lighter side
1 Comment

The Lighter Side is about remembering the importance of laughter in our health (and life) journey. While I fully agree it’s important to have information on your health, and how to heal, I believe that taking a moment to smile (or better yet, laugh) is an important component to healing. Research has shown that the health benefits of laughter are far-ranging; studies so far have shown […]

A couple days ago I posted about Paula Deen announcing that she was known she has Type 2 Diabetes for over 3 years now, and is just coming forward with this information. While I watched her on The Today Show, I was instantly annoyed and shocked that she was so flippant about her announcement, especially when she announced that […]

Comments Off on Fat dad, fat kids: New research points to fathers’ influence

Interesting study mentioned on The Today Show; yes, it seems I get a lot of my news updates from The Today Show 🙂 That said, I agree with the author and group which conducted the study that the results are counter-intuitive to what I would imagine, which is that Dad’s actually hold more “weight” as to whether your child turns out […]

Comments Off on Paula Deen announces she has Type 2 Diabetes

Southern celebrity chef Paula Deen appeared on the Today Show with Al Roker this morning to address rumors that she has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes more than 3 years ago. While it’s a sad thing to hear that any of us have Type 2 diabetes, I have to admit that I wasn’t overly […]
