Every year, the Environmental Working Group comes out with a guide based on studies done by the USDA that indicates which produce contains the most and the least pesticide residue. I find this list to be very helpful especially if buying 100% organic is not an option due to monetary restrictions. The full list includes 47 popular produce items and is also broken down into the “dirty dozen” and “clean fifteen”. We know from scientific studies that many of the pesticides and herbicides sprayed on conventional crops disrupt nervous and endocrine (hormone) systems, increase risk of cancer, contribute to infertility in both males and females and are especially dangerous for children (including the unborn) who’s immune systems are not fully developed and are therefore the most vulnerable to damage.

While ear infections can be caused by a bacterial infection, did you know the majority of them are viral (meaning antibiotics cannot treat them)? Ear infections are the most common reason for doctor’s office visits and are often prescribed antibiotics without testing to see if the infection is even bacterial or monitoring the fever for a few days first.

For Health Coach Week, I’ve rounded up the most common questions about health coaching! Health Coaching is a newer field brought about by our current health crisis and stressful lifestyle in the developed world. I hope this post gives you a clear understanding of what a health coach is and how you can benefit from one. If there is anything I didn’t answer, send me an email and I will try to answer it!
