I was recently on the phone with a dear friend that kept saying she could not wait on the stimulus package check to get some things she really wanted. She was due $1500 or so from the government in May. She is a well educated and successful mom that recently came home with a baby. I thought it was odd for her to say that because she is always into something that brings in some cash flow or so I thought. When I delved deeper about what she had been doing for money and how some of those things were going she said, “Oh there okay, but you know those things don’t make money for you if you aren’t out and working them and buying the inventory to sell.” I immediately reminded her that all work from home doesn’t require that. I mentioned that I have had a steady income for the past two years, every single month. I too have had a baby in the last year and will have another in May. My checks have continued to come under ALL circums ...

An allergy occurs when the body's immune system has an exaggerated reaction to a usually harmless substance. The most common causes of allergies are dust mites, molds, pollen, pets with fur or feathers, stinging insects, and some kinds of foods. The body reacts to the substance by releasing chemicals, one of which is called histamine. The results of this reaction may include runny nose, congestion, sneezing, itchy eyes, and ear itching or popping. Asthma may occur in some children. The best way to prevent or control your child's allergy symptoms is to help him or her avoid the allergen, the substance that triggers the allergy. An allergist is a doctor trained to identify which substances are causing your child's allergy, and he or she can treat and help you prevent your child's allergy symptoms. One way an allergist can determine the causes of your child's allergies is by testing your child's reaction to specific allergens by skin or blood tests. Based on the t ...

Cleaning your house with low-toxic cleansers you make yourself is an excellent way to start your green home-maintenance program. Not only are these cleansers healthy and effective, they smell good, cost less than commercial products, don't pollute indoor air, and only take a minute to make.
Begin by sorting out the area where you keep your cleaning products. Box up all commercial cleansers - ammonia, oven cleaners, furniture polish, disinfectant, toilet cleaner. Tighten the lids and store the cleansers in the garage until your community's next hazardous-waste collection day. Now you're ready to replace those synthetic chemicals with natural products you make yourself using ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen:
The most common ingredients are:
• Borax
• Distilled white vinegar
• Baking soda
• Salt

For the more than 40 million people throughout the country who suffer from indoor allergies, spring cleaning can be an important step to take in order to reduce allergy symptoms, according to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI). Spring cleaning takes some time and effort, but it will produce an indoor environment that is less allergenic, easier to clean and healthier for the whole family. Symptoms of indoor allergies Indoor allergy sufferers will often wheeze, sneeze, cough and hack their way through the winter months, thinking they have a chronic cold. In actuality, they are probably reacting to indoor allergens. Some symptoms between a cold and allergies are similar, such as sneezing and a stuffy or runny nose. But, if your symptoms are also accompanied with a fever, sore throat, colored nasal discharge, and aches and pains, then you probably have a cold. With allergies, there is never a fever, the nasal discharge is clear, an ...

NEW YORK (CNN) -- Michelle Hammond and Jeremiah Holland were intrigued when a friend at the Oakland Tribune asked them and their two young children to take part in a cutting-edge study to measure the industrial chemicals in their bodies.
"In the beginning, I wasn't worried at all; I was fascinated," Hammond, 37, recalled.
But that fascination soon changed to fear, as tests revealed that their children -- Rowan, then 18 months, and Mikaela, then 5 -- had chemical exposure levels up to seven times those of their parents.
"[Rowan's] been on this planet for 18 months, and he's loaded with a chemical I've never heard of," Holland, 37, said. "He had two to three times the level of flame retardants in his body that's been known to cause thyroid dysfunction in lab rats."
The technology to test for these flame retardants -- known as polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) -- and other industrial chemicals ...

As a wife, mom and business women I have multiple task in life on a daily basis. I have four children a husband, and a large extended family. Life can be pretty stressful on MOST days. My husband experiences high stress as well because of the multi tasking required of him each day. Soon both of us recognized the consequences of NOT MANAGING our stress on a daily basis. Headache’s, chronic fatigue, high cholesterol and of course stroke and hard attack are all related to stress. Most of us are aware that our lifestyle contributes to the stress we experience however we are NOT aware of the various ways we contribute to our stress by missing meals, not getting enough rest, or simply not taking vitamins on a daily basis.
