Healthy Eating
Are Height and Size Impacted by Nutrition?
So, when looking at the children of today, starting with the size of newborns, what role is nutrition playing? Well, babies born very small i.e. less than 6 pounds, are usually nutrient deficient. Actually, most babies are born nutrient deficient these days but it doesn’t always show up in their size. And extreme smallness in children (height and weight) can also be a sign of nutrient deficiency. Other contributors to extreme smallness are lack of adequate protein, lack of sufficient sleep, too much sports, genetics or Celiac Disease (a disease caused by a complete intolerance to wheat). I have helped many babies with ‘failure to thrive’ by removing wheat from their breastfeeding moms’ diets.

I remember when I was younger, being asked the old-age question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” One time, I remember my response being, “Well, if…
Read MoreThe Energetics of Nutrition
Jade taught her own course called “The Energetics of Nutrition”. I extrapolated these words from her course handouts. “It has often been said that food is a metaphor for life. How we relate to food often reflects how we relate to ourselves and to those around us. As our relationship with food changes and evolves over time, so does our relationship with our Self.
Read MoreOptimizing Your Child’s Day at School Through Nutrition
You may believe that food has this much of an impact on our bodies or you may wonder at the possibility. You may be tired of feeding your child the same old foods. The age-old questions are “What do I feed my child to help them be healthy?” and “What new ideas can you suggest for my child’s lunch?”
Read MoreCancer-Friendly Cuisine For Families
As cancer becomes more common among younger men and women, families are having to learn how to accommodate its influence in their home life.

Read MoreHomeopathy – A Case Study Showing Profound Results
This is simply one example of the healing power of homeopathy. There are countless others. It’s the stories that need to become well known, until one day, homeopathy, other alternative healing modalities and diet once again become perceived as necessities in our world. Nicholas helped this girl through his private practice. He is also providing free advice for acute injuries or ailments at Nature’s Emporium every Thursday. Yes, you heard me correctly, free. He could be making hundreds of thousands of dollars or be doing a job that is internationally revered. But instead, he is quietly improving the lives of others in major ways, one at a time. Thank you Nicholas for your passion for health and your hard work. Thank you to the other practitioners out there doing the same. You make the world a better place.
Read MoreHow to Embark on a Healthy Family Vacation
Taking a trip, for any family, involves departing from the routine and regular eating habits. I welcome this change and I know my children do too. For me, it is such a relief to get a break from deciding on meals ideas and cooking. But how do you embark on and manage to eat healthily on a vacation?
Read MoreYour Kids and Treats
As I venture through the first days of summer, I notice the numerous social events that seem to take place once the warmer weather arrives. Along with the social events, come all the delicious treats. For some children, summer represents a “free for all” where they can indulge in unhealthy food whenever and however they wish. Often these children have parents that were raised strictly, who do not want to put their own children through the same “torture.” I can understand their way of thinking but when it comes to food, it is simply too important to one’s overall well being to let children make all the decisions.
Read MoreWhy Are the Children of Today so Sick?
We are experiencing the sickest generation of children in the history of mankind. Unfortunately, I can guarantee that the next generation will be even sicker – unless you are a family that is doing things differently than the majority. You see, toxicity gets passed onto our children and their children and so on. We look at the beautiful babies we are birthing and we think they are perfect. I believe every child is perfect and born with the exact characteristics needed to live the lives they are meant to live. But every baby is born with any health imbalances passed onto them by their mother and father. If, for example, mother and/or father drank excessively at parties, smoked, or ate high sugar or processed foods, their digestive systems suffered the assault and so will baby’s. I know because it happened to me and to those parents who seek my help.
Read MoreSeal Oil – A Major Step in Achieving Vibrant Health
We have all heard of essential fatty oils (please see my prior blogpost for the benefits) but not so many of us have heard of seal oil or the fact that seal oil is available for human consumption. In the past year, I have been doing my own experiments, watching friends and family members consume the Auum oil and have been amazed at the results. Why did I even begin these experiments? Because I had heard that Seal oil was the very best source of Omega 3 fatty acids and I learned through other nutritionists that Auum is the very best processor of the oils.
