Don't Believe the Hype: Cancer Cure Myths

Image
The one thing everyone needs to know about cancer...it is mysterious.  Not only is every cancer unique in its methods of operation, but it is unique to each human being.  It seems the war on scientific, logical, and reasoned approaches to cancer treatment is suspect, but it is only suspect to those who live in fear (one way or another).  A diagnosis of cancer is scary, but it can be managed in a logical manner using an integrative approach.  The link below is simply a guide to use in order to avoid cancer myths that will not help your hope for a cancer cure.  Eat organic, eat those superfoods because they are a good source of nutrition, but don't believe they will cure cancer.  Eat well to support your body.  Don't believe the hype!   http://scienceblog.cancerresearchuk.org/2014/03/24/dont-believe-the-hype-10-persistent-cancer-myths-debunked/

Oakland Coffee Brings 100% Compostable Single-Serve Cups to Life

Image
On my last trip to Newport Beach, my husband and I could not believe all the plastic, single-serve cups strewn along the shore.  I never liked the idea of single-serve cups to begin with due the waste factor, so one can imagine my utter joy to find Oakland Coffee's 100% compostable cups at the 2017 Natural Products Expo West in Anaheim.  The lovely women at the booth gave me a couple of samples, which I tried it at the hotel the following morning...good, strong single-serving of organic coffee.  After I finished my coffee, I placed the used coffee grounds compostable cups in a bag, and fed them to my garden when I returned home, literally, the best of both worlds.  Now, I just might buyh one of those single-serve coffee machines! https://oaklandcoffee.com/oakland-coffee-works/
