This is what I’ve been talking about and saying all along! We need to pay attention to what we are putting on our skin! It can impact our health dramatically! Read below ⬇️

A new study has shown that making the switch to personal care products without certain preservatives can have a profound impact on health. After just 28 days, women who made this change saw breast cancer-related genes turn off. This groundbreaking research is encouraging individuals to reconsider their choices in the products they use daily, highlighting the direct impact these choices can have on long-term health.

The findings suggest that exposure to certain chemicals in personal care items may be contributing to the rise in breast cancer rates. By eliminating these harmful preservatives, individuals can reduce their risk, potentially preventing the onset of cancerous cell growth. This study is a powerful reminder of how small lifestyle changes can make a big difference in our overall well-being.

As the focus on health-conscious choices grows, this research could lead to widespread changes in how personal care products are formulated and marketed. More consumers are demanding transparency and healthier alternatives, and this study could be the catalyst for the next big shift in the industry. 🌱🧴

I wasn’t a vendor, but we still stopped out at Hudson’s Christkindlmrkt! The weather wasn’t ideal but the snow looked so pretty! Even ran into my good friend, Jennifer Till from Till Family Farms! I heard they might close early tonight and might not even open tomorrow 😕❄️

How many of you use dental flossers? Dental floss? I have recently switched my floss to a charcoal floss, no wax, etc. This right here is why ⬇️ Wonder if this is one of the reasons my cholesterol was high 🤔 But also, do you know the truth about cholesterol? We’ll talk about that later….

Love this!

HOT TAKE: The cold isn’t what makes you sick the stale air does. ❄️

We’re the family who cracks the windows in winter, bundles up to play outside, and fully believes fresh air is one of the greatest immune boosters we’ve got.

Because here’s the truth:
Most of us spend winter sealed up inside, breathing the same recycled air, letting every little germ hang out and get comfy. Then we blame the weather when really, the fresh air is what our bodies are begging for.

Cold air strengthens immunity.
Natural light boosts mood.
Movement outside helps our bodies regulate and reset.

Our kids are made for the elements.
We are too.

Winter isn’t something to hide from
it’s something to embrace… even if that means airing out the house while we’re zipping up the coats. 🤍❄️
