A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Ever since my ‘confinement period’ after the birth of Cass 6 years ago, I have never really stuffed myself with red meat and iron-rich food after my monthly menses. In fact, I have been cutting down on meat lately and have been eating more vegetables and eggs. Lately, my heavy menstrual flow is taking a…
My Aunt Flow is here again for her monthly visits. As much as I resent her as she makes me moody, out-of-sync and lethargic, I know very soon I will miss having her around. Her absence will only mean that I have lost my youth and that it is time for me to embark on…

Every single day. The more Teviron that has contact…
I had some satay sauce (spicy peanut sauce) left in the freezer, which the hubs brought back from his shop the other day. I wanted to clear my freezer and fridge of all the food before our trip back to my parents, so I whipped this dish up for dinner – grilled chicken with lemon…
I first got to know about Teviron negative ion clothing about 7 years ago. I was on the verge of buying them for Alycia who kept falling ill. Alycia who was 3 years old then, fell sick every month on end ever since she first attended pre-school. I had tried many health products and supplements…
Healthy eating has become the booming new trend and many people are becoming vegan in order to comply. According to the Vegan Society, being vegan is about protecting the environment, animals, and humans in order to create a sustainable world. Vegans do not eat or use any products that come from animals. The vegan lifestyle…
It is the rainy season now. We would be getting rain for 3 days straight and then have 1 day of weak sunlight and then rain for days again. I do love the rainy season and the cool weather that comes together with it. If you know me well, you will know that I hate…
