Healthy Holiday Traditions

Can you believe that it's almost Christmas? I
haven't even begun to shop or write cards or
anything. And Hanukkah is just a few days away.
We celebrate both, bringing together the best of
my husband's family traditions and mine. It's
lots of fun.

I have always loved baking for the Holidays. I
have lots of favorite recipes for cookies,
cranberry bread and yummy pies. Since I no longer
eat sugar, flour, butter and all the ingredients
of my old favorite recipes, I had to develop new
ones.

The new recipes taste as good or BETTER than my
old favorites. And when I eat these new foods, I
feel great! I no longer feel bloated and like I
need a nap after eating my favorite Christmas
cookies and pies.

Since I've been married to Scott, I've learned
to make Hanukkah foods, too, like Latkes with
homemade applesauce and dairy free sour cream.

I've been working on putting all of these recipes

together and finally have them ready in the form
of a book. By the time I finished putting in all
the recipes and tips for creating low stress
holiday celebrations, the book ended up being over
160 pages!

I've put together a couple of very special
packages that include my new book, "Healthy
Holiday Traditions: Nourishing Recipes for
Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year's
Celebrations”and I'm ready to share them with
you!

So go on over to

http://www.drritamarie.com/WinterHolidays

and reserve your copy. The book is in e-book
format, so you can download it instantly. I'm
working on getting a printed version available
too, and those who purchase the e-book during the
next couple of weeks will be offered the print
book at for a nominal upgrade fee.

I'm so excited about this.

I've added some juicy new bonuses, for a limited
time only, and a very special "Deluxe Holiday
Toolkit". When you order the e-book, one of the
bonuses you'll receive is access to an online
video of me making some of the recipes.

Here's a comment from someone who watched the
Holiday Video when I offered it with the
Thanksgiving Feast book:

I just watched the Holiday recipe video...OMG, it
was WONDERFUL!!!! And so helpful! I bought the
e-book, but it makes such a difference to actually
see you putting the elements together!!! THANK YOU
SO MUCH FOR CREATING THIS VIDEO!!!!

I made several of the recipes at last weekend's
potluck and they were a big hit. I can't wait to
hear your comments!

I wish you a very healthy, happy and stress-free
holiday season. Make some good food, connect with
those you love and above all, give thanks for all
your blessings

Detoxification: Healing Fatigue and Hormone Imbalance fromt he Inside Out

By
Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo

Everyone is always looking for answers that are complicated, sophisticated and sexy. The truth is, most health issues have simple solutions. Notice I said there are simple solutions. That doesn't mean they're easy.

In fact, some of the simplest solutions of all are often the hardest to follow.

Most health issues, including chronic fatigue, result from an overwhelmed immune system and a decreased ability to detoxify the environment. There are all sorts of factors that contribute to allergies, and they rank from poor food choices, genetic weakness in the detoxification pathways, excessive exposure to toxins, stress, toxic emotions and a host of other factors.

Many of these problems can be overcome by application of "simple" strategies and deep tissue detoxification.

1- Fresh food: When you're running around chasing after deadlines, it's not always easy to find fresh food. It's certainly not in the vending machines or the fast food joints.

2- Fresh, clean water: Unless you carry your own, it's not generally available, although more and more places carry bottled water. I was in a restuarant last week with family that didn't! What a shock.

3- Fresh air : Our air is filled with chemicals and pollution. Unless you live in a pristine area far far away form the cities, clean air is hard to find. And the indoor air is even worse; it's polluted with all the chemicals used in building materials, carpets, paint and cleanin supplies.

4 - Exercise : When you're working 12 hour a day, taking care of kids, and running a mile a minute to keep up with obligations, finding time to exercise can be a challenge, unless you are dedicated and make it an important part of your day.

5- Positive thoughts : If you listen to the news, read the newspaper or watch TV, the constant reporting of terrifying events, ominous predictions and financial gloom are enough to wear your positive thoughts to the bone.

6- Fulfilling Relationships: When you're working hard just to survive, it's easy to overlook the kind words and deeds and special touches that keep your relationships flourishing.

7- Sunshine : It's lovely, abundant in many parts of the world and elusive to many because we stay cooped up indoors working and taking care of our families.

Your health would improve dramatically if you could incorporate all of the above SIMPLE things into your life on a regular basis.

The hard, cold reality is, try as you might, you'll slip up on some of these "simple" health tips more than you'd like. And when you do, your detoxification pathways suffer and you open yourself for fatigue, lack of focus and illness.

That's why I developed a variety of cleansing and detoxification strategies that I perform at least 3-4 times a year to detoxify my system.

So just how toxic are you? Because there are so many genetic and environmental differences between people, the buildup of toxins effects each of us a bit diferently.

I have a test you can take to assess how much your health has been effected by toxicity. The test has ben around for a long time, and was originally developed by a mentor of mine , Dr. Jeffrey Bland, back in the 1980s.

My webmaster computerized it so that you can take it and get instant feedback.

Here's the link.
