Some Thoughts on Nutrition

     Disclosure:  Those who know me, know that I am health conscious -- I do what I can to be as healthy as I can be... and that includes eating right, exercising and doing all I am able given my own limitations.  I will be holding chats on health-related topics and things you can do to feel better living with pain, depression and anxiety.  However, because I am this sites administrator, and a distributor of Juice Plus +® whole food nutrition, I want to be clear up front that this site is not intended to promote my own personal business.

Juice Plus +® Provides the nutritional essence of 17 different fruits, vegetables and grains in a convenient capsule form. Click here to learn more.

However, I want to share with you the benefits of Juice Plus +® and will post a link to my Juice Plus +® website here for you to visit at your convenience.  If you have any questions or would like to try Juice Plus +® or learn more about it - please feel free to contact me at any time via this site or my Juice Plus +® website.

Note to Advertisers

Approved sites will be allowed to 'advertise' on the outside pages, not in the chat room, to help support the costs of running this site. (This is a common practice on websites - including those that are ministry based.)  Adds will be placed on the center area of this front page (subject to change as number of advertisers changes.. Click here for costs.  This is just one way to generate some income to keep it going! Prayer is another - your prayers for the financial needs of this ministry are greatly appreciated!

If you have a web-based business and would like to advertise here, please submit your request in writing and it will be considered. This will help the chronically ill who are trying to generate income through small home-based businesses.  I will also accept submissions from those whose purpose is to help the chronically ill. This is an area we will continue to pray about.

"Sowin' Seeds and Touchin' Lives" by Carol Krejci
Comments on the book by Sara Arline Thrash, PhD.
Author, "Compassionate Care for the Sick and Dying"

"How do you say earth's final farewell to the one dearest to you? How do you jumpstart depleted energies and reinvest them after such a heart scald?  Does the sadness ever go away?  With open candor, pragmatic insight, and gentle humor, Carol addresses these searing questions. This book shouts that God is the Original Promise Keeper in every situation - one day at a time!"
