Choose to Swim with the Fish: Get your Omega-3 from Fish Oil and not Flax
by Angela Pifer, MSN CN
About Me View My Posts
Omega-3 essential fatty acids are a crucial part of our diet, so make sure you're getting all their potential benefits. Choose to get your Omega-3 from deepwater fish (or via supplements sourced from the same). You may hear that flax oil is also a source of Omega-3- and that's true to some extent - but it's not as complete a source as fish oil. If you're a vegetarian or vegan, you'll want to choose... 7/2/2008 9:53:18 PM

Even if you enter the trip with the thought that you are not going to overdo it, that thought is often thrown out the window with each passing day. Though 'trip' and 'healthy eating' don't commonly go together it is possible to... 7/2/2008 9:52:12 PM

Why Don't More People Do Premarital Counseling?
by Lisa Brookes Kift, MFT
About Me View My Posts
As a relationship therapist, I find it interesting that more people don't do premarital counseling. I was thinking that perhaps people are in such a "honeymoon" phase they think to themselves: "We don't need that...we're so in love....etc." This might be true for the moment but what about a few years down the line when the marriage gets thrown a few curve balls? Life has a tendency to do that. I love... 6/29/2008 7:00:00 AM

How to Gauge the Severity of Your Cellulite
by Dr.Bissoon
About Me View My Posts
Every woman with cellulite always seems to think they have the worse possible case. I hear them say this day in and day out. Doctor, my cellulite is the worst you have ever seen. I want to respond by saying, if you knew how to do a self exam, you would not think so, but it is one of those things you do not say to patients. As the Cellulite Viewing Season approaches, it is important to understand the... 6/3/2008 11:42:42 AM
