Sugar: The Bitter Truth

I was hipped to this video from Heidi at Adventures of a Gluten Free Mom, and after only 30 minutes of watching, I knew that it was going to be the best hour and a half I would spend in my day. I’ll say it again! As long as this presentation is, it is totally worth watching.  Dr. Robert Lustig does an excellent job of explaining why sugar, in the forms of sucrose, fructose (not fructose that occurs naturally in fruits and veggies) and HFCS, is poison and why it is so prevalent in our diets today.


Allergy Medical Bracelets

I never thought about it, but what a great idea! If something were to happen to you, how would you tell the hospital staff that you are celiac, allergic to nuts, or can’t handle dairy?

Bruce’s Girl and Designed by Lucinda sell these alert bracelets on their Etsy shops.


Freed People: No Fizz Charlotte


I love people who willingly put themselves out there as an example of what can’t be done. Bobby Demuro is one such person. He has a personal mission to drive soda out of the lives of our fellow Carolinians. He’s so passionate about it, he started a non profit organization, No Fizz Charlotte. If it hasn’t already, I hope this catches on nationally!
