March 24, 2011

I have used olive oil for a long time in cooking and for salads, but until recently I haven’t explored the basics of purchasing a healthy, good quality olive oil. At a local health meeting recently, I heard that olive oil should always be purchased in dark bottles and that if it is a clear […]

March 25, 2010

I read an article on Naturalnews today about hormones in U.S. raised beef and had to share it with you because it just made me MAD. I can accept that to buy the best meat (pastured & local) I need to specifically purchase it from a small farm, but the beef that most people buy […]

I received the following email today and enjoyed the way it presented valuable information in a common sense format.

National Health Care Reform Diseased from the Start

A few weeks ago I went down to the Women’s Expo to see what’s big with women in Grand Rapids, and was pleasantly surprised to see a good showing of holistic health booths.

Beware of the HFCS!

February 26, 2009

About a month ago, I began writing this post to inform you that I don’t think there’s ever been an ingredient so sneaky and nasty as high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). Now I’m writing not just to tell you, but to plead to you- avoid HFCS at all costs! This will be a difficult task […]

Socialized Health Hidden in Stimulus

February 15, 2009

This is not a political blog, but that doesn’t mean the authors don’t have their opinions, and further, the changing political climate has some heavy implications on the future of health care (and many other things). Since openeyehealth.com is about, well, opening eyes to important health topics, and improving the way the world approaches health, […]
