I am a certified Can-Fit-Pro "Personal Trainer Specialist", as well as a certified "Nutrition and Wellness Specialist". Anyone who knows me, also knows that I take my certifications, as well as these areas of study and expertise very seriously. That's me at 47 years of age on the cover of my e-book. I have spent my entire adult life studying diet and nutrition, weight loss, fat loss, fitness and exercise, as well as skin care and overall health issues in one form or another. I have read hundreds, perhaps thousands of books on the subject and continue to follow all the latest, up-to-date research with reference to pertinent health related and lifestyle issues. I am keenly interested in the mind/body/spirit connection as it pertains to total health and wellness, including any safe, natural alternatives that contribute to healthy living. I have also probably tried just about every exercise and diet program known to man over the course of my adult life and believe me, some of it was not pretty!
In my latest e-book, "Mamma's Got A Secret", I strive to give you all the latest facts, findings and research, with the hope that it will help guide your way to total health and wellness.

Besides being a certified 'Personal Trainer' and a 'Nutrition and Wellness Specialist', I have had indispensable, countless years of experience in and around the medical community throughout my lifetime. I have spent immeasurable amounts of time studying and learning various therapy techniques in a multitude of different medical facilities throughout Ontario and Canada. I take health issues very seriously.For months now I have been working on and writing informational 'packets' with reference to nutrition, anti-aging, weight loss and exercise. My newest e-book, "Mamma's Got A Secret" is a compilation and a condensation of hundreds of pages of work. I have endeavored to put the things that I know to be true and sensible into a concise, easy to read and short format.

There are literally thousands of anti-aging, nutritional, weight loss, fat loss and diet programs on the market today, as well as hundreds of individuals who claim to be experts in the various fields they write about. Some of the programs are great, some of them are ridiculous and some of them are just plain deceptive. My new e-book, Mamma's Got A Secret", will give you all the latest facts as I know them and dispel some of the myths surrounding proper nutrition and eating, exercise, weight loss, fat loss, beauty and health.

A 'small taste' of what healthy foods can do for you!
"71. Some like it HOT! (chilli, chili, chile). Chili peppers pack a real one-two punch and then some! They come in many different varieties, colors and shapes, as well as varying degrees of heat! Capsaicin, the active ingredient found in chili peppers can make your eyes water, your nose run, as well as your tongue and throat burn. A typical green chili pepper contains more Vitamin C than a whole orange and is low in sodium, but very rich in Vitamin A (red chilis), potassium and fibre. The compounds found in chili peppers are purported to help in the fight against heart disease, pain, cancer and cataracts. It has anti-inflammatory properties and thus can be considered as a potential treatment for such things as arthritis, shingles and psoriasis; it's thermogenic, so helps to increase your metabolic rate, which in turn can help burn fat; it may help to prevent sinus infection and congestion, along with heart disease and stroke because it lowers cholesterol levels and helps prevent clotting. Believe it or not, chili peppers can also help to relieve digestive problems! Pretty impressive for this powerful, little superfood called the chili pepper. Wow, who would've thought!!"

My Life, My Passion!
In Order To Tell You How This Book Came About, I Need To Tell You My Story!
For those of you who know me personally, you also know that I have three adult children, as well as a ten year old grandson. Sherry, my oldest daughter, was just recently diagnosed with a life-threatening debilitating disease. We're still reeling from and learning to deal with this latest news. Our middle son Jeremiah was born prematurely and was subsequently diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, which in his case includes physical, social, developmental and mental handicaps. Jeremiah is considered 'total care' and functions somewhere between the ages of 6 and 11 months of age. That also means that he is non-ambulatory, non-verbal, diapered and unable to feed or dress himself - the full gamut. Our youngest son Jonathan, at the age of nineteen, was in a severe car accident just two months after Jeremiah was placed in a private, full care facility and to this day is still fighting his way back to total health.
With Jeremiah, physical and occupational therapy sessions were part of my everyday life, as well as the multitude of other components associated with advocating and taking care of an individual who can't fight for their own rights and/or take care of themselves. Being a full-time caretaker made me appreciate the enormity of what full health and total wellness is all about. My certifications were a natural extension of the areas of expertise that I had already spent innumerable years studying and investigating. Believe me, health is a big, big deal in our family!!

** Note: This list originally included the "Seven Most Popular Diets in the World Today", but when a visitor added the "No Diet" approach to my list, I left the entry intact because this is the diet that I subscribe to, which of course is healthy, balanced eating at its best!

What Affects One, Affects Us All!
Six degrees of separation?
These are the people I learn from on a daily basis and whose lives have fuelled my passion for continual growth in the areas of health and wellness education.
Our oldest child and daughter Sherry (31) has just recently been diagnosed with a life-threatening debilitating disease.
Our middle son Jeremiah was born with Cerebral Palsy and functions somewhere between 6-11 months of age.
Our youngest son Jonathan (26), at the age of 19, was in a severe car accident just two months after Jeremiah was placed in a private, full care facility and to this day is still fighting his way back to total health.
Our children are incredible, miraculous individuals, who have taught us more about courage, perseverance, patience, hope and love than we could have learned in a lifetime without them. They are all truly courageous, wonderful and talented individuals!
I BELIEVE!
Music is a wonderful way to connect and an amazing stress reliever too!
Connecting and helping one another is also what squidoo is all about and I love that about them too!
Here's what I know about me. I believe in love; I believe that faith and love, along with patience and perseverance will get us through; I believe that we can change our own destiny; I believe that we can affect not only our own lives, but also the lives of others; I believe in second chances - and as many as we need to get it right; I believe we should complain less and care more; I believe that you do not make mistakes, you have experiences, good or bad and what they become to you is what you make of them; I believe that I have learned a great deal from the past and that I will handle whatever comes in the future; I believe that what affects one, affects us all and that we are all connected in some grand way. I'm a true romantic at heart and I like it that way! I Believe! I truly believe!!
When I Dream, I Dream Big!
Warm climates warm my heart!
Being truly healthy means taking time for yourself - time to relax, unwind, destress and recoup. I love the Hawaiian Islands, but anyplace warm where you can sit and relax, take a deep breath and regenerate without interruption is okay with me. The Carribbean Islands are also a great destination when you want to get away from it all!
Although I love a great vacation south, sometimes a simple change of pace and location is just the ticket!

snoring
Excellent. Great informative lens ...Really Cool :-) Snoring is a bigger issue in relationships than what many of my friends and experts had originally thought. Snoring is a real problem that at times can separate a couple within their own home and eventually break up a marriage or relationship without really knowing that snoring was the original underlying culprit. Visit also my site and see some other cool stuff for people who snore! Posted May 18, 2008 |

Hi, I loved your lens. I strive on a daily basis to eat the right foods and take the best nutrition on the market. I'm working towards becoming a nutritionist. What drives me towards good nutrition is my family is in a health crisis with cancer. I lost my sister to brain cancer my grandmother to ovarian and 5 Aunts and Uncles from different forms of cancer. My Dad is a survivor of bladder cancer. I found the perfect product to take Genesis. I would love you to stop by and visit my lens on Resveratrol and with you knowledge of nutrition you will appreciate this lens. Its a work in progess!! Thanks Beth Posted April 22, 2008 |
