4/20/10 SMARTIES are Stupid (candy) !
Ever see the scene in The Wedding Planner where Matthew McConoughey is separating the brown M&M's from the red and yellow and green M&M's ?
It appears he is deliberately trying to ingest as much FD&C dyes as possible KNOWING those particular candy coated shells are in their highest concentration. Okay maybe he does not know but I do know and I want to share this thought with you. I did not like nor appreciate the humor in which his action was set against. This is not a funny issue, it is a very serious one.
I mean take for example a developing two year old little brain of your genius who adores and is fascinated by both color and taste of the red and yellow M&M's. Do you know that little precious life is one that is about to be bombarded with a concentration of either petroleum (which replaces most of the bituminous coal once used to help bond the dye to a coloring agent) as well as AZO dyes made from natural chemical elemenst like nitrogen or hydrogen and it is very reassuring that Allura Red AC is associated with much fewer health risks and concerns than any of the other azo dyes used in the food and cosmetic industry today. However why take a chance with Tartrazine that is used for some of the yellows and maybe a still few of the greens and blues.
I am glad manufacturers are getting smarter. . . SEE REST HERE

"As 2010 continues, the future health & wellness of our infants, toddlers, adolescents even teenagers, can only look better when all parents, grandparents, step-parents, foster parents and other responsible adults in a childs life ARE AWARE of the real dangers to our future generations. I still encourage all LABEL READING so you don't have to be serving your little ones FD&C red dye, yellow specifically #6 because even though both are no longer made with bituminous coal, petroleum is equally unhealthy when digested. The #6 yellow is still indirectly linked to the autism spectrum disorders and many of the neurological failures because it increases hyperactivity while decreasing intelligent quotient. Please become TOTALLY informed ! When will you take the time out of your busy busy lives and see how to prevent further damage of our child's future ? . . .
I believe the time is NOW !"

"teaching children about wellness" 12/28/09
One of the best ways to increase the chances that your children will adopt wellness concepts is to model attitudes and behaviors consistent with a health-enhancing outlook on life. Sermons are always more effective when demonstrated than preached.
I have two sets of suggestions to help you teach your children about wellness. One is a short list of specific behaviors that, if practiced in your fashion day in and day out, will go a long way to insure that you are a great parental model. The other is a couple wellness games to play that could help your children think specifically about wellness, understand it in some depth and strengthen their motivation to follow your lead in living this way. The first part I’ll call Modeling Wellness; the second Playing Games.
