There are millions of sufferers of a 'syndrome' commonly known as 'adrenal fatigue' or more specifically, mild adrenal insufficiency. This means that the adrenal glands are not functioning optimally and is often caused by prolong chronic stress. This condition in its many forms has been dead-panned by the medical establishment, despite clear scientific evidence stating that it does, in fact, exist.
So, what is 'adrenal fatigue' or 'mild adrenal insufficiency'?

There is a media beat up going on right now over some very tragic deaths due to the Influenza A virus.
It is terribly sad that families are losing loved ones and my heart goes out to all of them.
_Before I was The Eco Mum, I was a strung out, over achiever, highly ambitious, powerhouse type business woman.
My blood hound researchers nose was once again tweaked recently. This time it was in relation to silicone products.
I used to take everything I was told at face value. After years of being mislead and it affecting my health and sanity, I now like to check everything myself - against credible sources like scientific reports, studies, clinical trials and production processes.
When I started to check out silicone, I wasn't at all happy with what I learnt.
I know, I know - believe me I KNOW - how can your gut EVER make you smile again after you'd had a bub? The lack of stomach-holdery-ineryness is enough to make you cry daily... I know I feel like it!
But there IS more to that post baby belly of yours and when you find out just what it CAN do for you, you'll never frown at it in the mirror again!
Another measles outbreak has occurred. Truth be known this "outbreak" has been going on for 2 years. To my mind, this means possibly less of an "outbreak" and more of a resistance issue to the vaccine. Be that as it may, measles is treatable with a variety of simple herbs and home remedies. I find that so long as my child is healthy and robust, they manage illnesses like this fairly well.
Ok, first thing - DO NOT PANIC!
I’m sure you’ve heard that old saying “The eyes are the window to the soul”.

I am ALL for the slip slop slap etc regimen and intend on following it to the letter each time Smudge & I are outside. Fair Celtic skin + sunburn = not a good combination.
After my research into the chemical substance formaldehyde found in just about every cleaning agent, soap, shampoo, toothpaste & clothing item in our homes, I kept digging around.
It never ceases to amaze me what kind of substances & chemicals are ALLOWED to be included in foodstuffs, clothing for kids & infants, medicines, formulas, cleaning products & supposed “natural” products...
Take formaldehyde for example. Its a naturally occuring chemical substance (carbon, hydrogen & oxygen) however it is also a KNOWN carcinogenic... which means it is known to cause cancer.
