The not so wonderful scent of synthetic dyes...
Did You Know? Little tidbit fact that I just had to throw in there :)
*One acre of hemp (Grown in a single season) yields as much paper as up to 4 acres of trees.
That Isnt Apples That You Smell
95% of chemicals used in fragrances are synthetic compounds taken from petroleum.
These include benzene derivatives, aldenydes and many other toxins and sensitizers. These are capable of causing cancer, birth defects, as well as central nevous system disorders.
The toxins have been found in everything, from mother's milk to fish from the ocean. Many countries have banned synthetic fragrance chemicals because they are causing chronic migraines, ashtma, cancer and immune and nerve dysfunction that can affect the brain.
Your health may be affected, your reaction to these products is not an allergy. The chemicals are toxic and its becoming much more common for people to react to them and even be permanently damaged by them. Many times , in fact, usually the outcome is blamed on something else.
The scent that you smell in laundry detergent, deordorant, hair gels and perfume is only a small part of the ingredients in "Fragrance". Synthetic adhesives,glues, preservatives and spreading agents make up the rest.
These chemicals that make a smell stick to your clothes, they will also stick to your body, lungs and brain, or breast tissue. Once you have inhaled or applied the toxins.
To stay healthy and safe, use only natural and organic products for your skin, hair and clothes. Stay away from chemical air fresheners, deodorizers, and any chemical perfumes.

Ginger Tea to the Rescue
I have become a large fan of David Wolfe on facebook, I bet many of you are as well. Maybe you also get his newsletter. This is a recipe I found on one of his sharings. He is huge into self- healing and using nature to cure things rather than prescription drugs and other modern and accepted practices. He has some wonderful ideas to ensure a healthy lifestyle with things that I quite enjoy making right in the kitchen. They are usually very simple and easy to do.
In addition to having a wonderful taste, Ginger is an anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic, anti-viral, anti-bacterial. Not to shabby for not needing a prescription, eh? Also a great remedy for colds and sinus problems, stomachaches, indigestion and nausea.
Ginger Tea Recipe
Ingredients
*1 Tablespoon of raw, organic, unfiltered honey
*2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
*1/4 teaspoon of ground turmeric ( or freshly grated if you can find it!)
*1 oz coconut milk (optional)
*5 cups spring water
Preparation
1. bring water, ginger and turmeric to a boil
2. reduce heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes
3. remove from heat, strain, add coconut milk and honey to taste

The Trek South
The ponies and I made our annual trip south this past monday. Very grateful for one more very uneventful trip in the books. Healthy truck & healthy horses. Nothing is more interesting than traveling the entire east coast and noticing the little changes in culture each time you stop. Airports are right up there as well.
Going south for the winter is an obvious excitement for the horses and for the weather, but its also really great for my Arbonne business. I mostly talk to the internet about the company and all the topics that I am interested in. However, moving to a completely different place gives me a brand new group of people to share the possibilities with. Its also been fun to learn the different needs for the things that I sell. The weather is much drier here than it is at home. That sets us up for a whole new set of skincare needs.
I'm hoping for a bit milder winter this year weather-wise. The last two have been just a little bit too cold. I'm hoping to get going pretty quickly with metro to start the competition season. We'll start with a Training at Full Gallop in late January, followed by Prelim at Sporting Days and Pinetop. Then the possibility of a 1* or Intermediate later on. Better sell lots of Arbonne to fund the process!

New FDA approval of a genetically modified salmon
As I'm sure you all know by now, the FDA has approved a genetically modified salmon, legally able to be produced for consumption in the U.S. There seems to be a lot of
dissatisfaction regarding the adequacy and ethical standards of the FDA; I think that is a topic I would like to get to know a lot better.
As far as this incident goes, I just cannot support it. Just when it seems like the attention and research is starting to be sent in this direction, a setback like this occurs.
I take online courses through CourseRA. In the discussion forums for a recent Public Policy course, a professor responded to my concerns of GMO foods with the fact that because it cuts costs, it can be used to help reduce world hunger. While I completely understand that, I still believe that we should go about it a different way. Not labeling the difference between the products is something I just can't get past.
There are things that lead us to believe that genetically modified organisms in our food and health products is not beneficial to us, and is in fact harmful. Lab animals given GMO foods in the research that has been done, those animals many times cannot reproduce. Thorough enough studies have not been done to determine whether it is a healthy move or not. If it isn't, is there a healthier option with similar economical benefits that we could be taking instead??
The FDA claims that the GMO salmon is as healthy to eat as regular salmon. It may be worth looking into, to see if it may be a worthy alternative, but as of now there are not enough facts to support this kind of claim. The public support is not behind it either. Millions are against it, more so in European countries than in the US. Petitions float over the internet, some stores, such as Cosco are refusing to sell the product.
This does not mean that it won't sell, however. The FDA leaves the labeling up to the companies that sell the fish. It doesn't require that the animal be labeled to state that it was genetically altered and human made. It is beyond me how stores would refuse to sell a GMO salmon when it may be a mystery to all which is which.
I would hate to boycott all salmon, because there are fishermen out there who do an honorable job and are looking to produce food that is healthy for their customers. They would feed it to their own children.
The goal seems to be to have the altered salmon fit in with the already existing market, but be faster, cheaper and easier to produce at a higher rate. The GMO salmon will grow to market size in 16-18 months, rather than the natural 3 years.
What do you think about this? Anyone more educated on the topic than I? Any information is greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Lindsey
