One Week Until the Launch of NCI Insider.
|
We hope you enjoyed the content while we were on
hiatus.
For subscribers, the wait is over. As
we have mentioned several times over
the last few weeks, the first issue of
NCI Insider, our new weekly
subscription eNewsletter, publishes
next Monday. If you have not signed up
yet, you can confirm your subscription
at this
link.
For years, you have said that you wish
you could carry us around with you to
draw upon our expertise when needed.
You have said that having the
equivalent of a weekly microconsult
with Bonnie to provide tips, menu
ideas, lifestyle recommendations,
moral support, and more would be
priceless for keeping you and your
families on optimal paths.
We are confident this is achievable
with NCI Insider. It is the next phase
in providing you with the most
valuable, cutting edge wellness
content possible.
While some have questioned the cost,
with the care and effort it takes to
provide this type of content, we
believe the value far exceeds the
$2.35 per issue.
While a free version of our
eNewsletter will still be available,
we highly recommend making NCI Insider
part of your lifestyle.
Have
a happy, healthy day. Bonnie and Steve

Calling All Restaurant Entrepreneurs.
|
Steve - at
a recent stop in Jackson, WY, my
family and I had breakfast at a
restaurant that is worth crowing
about. In addition to the incredibly
tasty food and unusual accents to
common breakfast fare (see menu
below), what really blew us away about
Lotus
Organic Cafe was
that almost every menu item was
available gluten-free and vegan. Two
members of my family have wheat
issues, so it was a pleasure to be
able to have so many wheat-free
options. The food was as good as any
restaurant breakfast we've ever had.
If
anyone is considering opening a
restaurant like Lotus, the mission,
menu, and ingenuity they embody would
be a great model. And if you do not
want to reinvent the wheel, ask them
to franchise!

Recalls, Warnings, and Research.
|
So much to cover in so little space. Let's get
right to it.
- Artificial
Sweeteners
In
a large study,
artificially sweetened soft drinks
increased preterm delivery in
pregnant women.
- Fish
Oil
Lowers breast cancer risk in large
study.
- Glucosamine
Lowers severity of chronic back
pain, but so does placebo. Here's
our
take.
- HCG
Diet
A client asked us for our
opinion of this diet.
- Inulin
Fiber
Although inulin (chicory
root) has myriad g.i. benefits,
too much can cause problems. If
you have begun to experience
excessive gas, diarrhea, and
bloating, and you do
not consume Splenda (sucralose),
check your food and fiber products
for inulin. If you're taking in
more than 5 grams daily, this may
be the culprit.
- Kombucha
Whole Foods pulls
the fermented beverage from its
shelves.
- Quinine
FDA issued its second warning
against treating leg cramps with
Quinine because it may result in
serious and life-threatening
hematologic adverse events.
Magnesium or magnesium, calcium,
potassium, may solve the issue.
- Tylenol
Recall
The latest on recalls
of McNeil Pharmaceuticals'
Benadryl, Motrin, Rolaids, and
Tylenol.
