Both sessions by Petra were such fun and not too difficult even for those of us in the 60+ set. :) I'm so glad she did them. *Outstanding day and a half.

]]> Comment on Going Vegetarian: The Hows & Whys Explained by Louise Breyer http://foodforyourwholelifeblog.org/2010/05/the-hows-and-whys-of-vegetarianism/comment-page-1/#comment-104 Louise Breyer Tue, 25 May 2010 00:17:45 +0000 http://foodforyourwholelifeblog.org/?p=120#comment-104 I've been taking a multivitamin for years since I became very anemic and had to be hospitalized. I was in my 20s at the time. It is never to early or late to start trying to take better care of your body. Taking the right vitamins is part of that approach.

]]> Comment on Stress Management: Identify, Plan & Attack! by Richard Kuhns http://foodforyourwholelifeblog.org/2010/05/stress-management-identify-plan-attack/comment-page-1/#comment-55 Richard Kuhns Fri, 14 May 2010 14:50:34 +0000 http://foodforyourwholelifeblog.org/?p=113#comment-55 I have operated a stress management clinic for over 20 years and have many self help cds at http://www.DStressDoc.com but recently I have learned that one thing to remember is that stress can severely deplete the body's glutathione levels. And of course there's all kinds of stress such as pollution, habits such as smoking, drinking and so on, plus toxins in our food in addition to mental stressors. The body makes it's own glutathione but after age 20 it diminishes by a minimum of 10% each decade. Glutathione is responsible for protecting DNA, boosting immunity, reducing inflammation to name just a few things. Until three years ago there was nothing that could be done about it, today we now have a glutathione accelerator available. I always said that the first defense against stress was deep breathing, and it still is, but concurrently another most important defense against stress, pollution, toxins, free radicals and so on is having sufficient glutathione.
