Overcoming the Anytime Blues

Feeling down in the dumps and having the blues is not reserved just for big holidays like Christmas, Easter and the Fourth of July. There are many anniversary dates that remind us of something or sometime in our life that made us feel depressed. The death of someone close to us, our divorce date, our marriage date, a birthday, etc. We may not be able to wipe out the memory of these events but we can take charge of how we feel about them.

Mercola.com

Mercola.com has an excellent free newsletter that has great tips on nutrition, and what foods cause what kinds of allergies, milk, things that are unhealthy for kids. I would consider this required reading for any new parent to be, or even long time veteran parents who want to keep on top of the health scene! My children have benefitted greatly by the food articles, and the sugar free substitute articles. There is no better place to go for accurate information. The most wonderful place to go for parents who want to clarify the vaccine issue. Race Against Thimerasol
