Last Natural Health Circus Post

Well, the time has come to shut down The Natural Health Circus blog.

The 362 entries previously posted will remain here on the site, but all new blogging will be done somewhere else...

From today on, I'll blog at AgingBoomersBlog.com, where I'll continue to post natural health information and healthy recipes and other health-related material.

I'll also use that blog to speak my mind on any and all topics I feel like ranting about. :)

I hope to see you there!

North Carolina Snow Storm

Well, it's Friday late afternoon, January 29th, and a major winter storm has started here in our neck of the woods.

Current forecasts say snow, sleet, and freezing rain will impact us for the next 38 hours of so.

If the past is any indication, we'll lose power tonight or tomorrow and will be without electricity for anywhere from a few hours to as long as five days (the longest we've ever been without power in this house).

So if you're emailing us and we're not answering with our usual less than 24 hour response time, it's because we're huddled in a cold house with no power for the computer, furnace, or water heater.

Let the fun begin!

Snack to Lose Weight

This weight loss tip may come as a big surprise, but if you want to shed some pounds, you need to...

Snack between meals!

Whoa, what a great idea, eh?

You see, the human body wasn't designed to eat three meals a day, scheduled at the same time each day, the way most of us do.

Indeed, our bodies are always working, churning away and burning energy whether awake or asleep.

So instead of consuming your daily quotient of calories in three meals, spread 'em out over four or five or six mini-meals.

Remember, though, success only comes if you eat smaller meals.

You do NOT want to eat six full-sized meals every day!

By approaching your eating this way, you'll boost your metabolism, not get as hungry, and lose weight at the same time.

Try this simple tip and see if it doesn't work just the way I said it would. :)
