Money Magic! book © Bernadette WulfGreetings!

Life has been busy lately. I finally got around to publishing my Money Magic! book in paperback. It has been on Kindle for years, but I did a little rewriting and updated the cover. I love the bright colors!

As of today, there were still some formatting errors in the Amazon book description, but I’m hoping they will be fixed right away. Amazing how much time all this stuff can eat up!

I wrote the book almost two decades ago when I was laid off from a job and decided to put Law of Attraction to the test rather than look for a new job. It was quite an interesting, and sometimes challenging experiment, but I’m so glad I did it. Since then, my relationship with money has improved dramatically. It can work for anyone who follows the steps I laid out in the book. That’s why I decided to publish what was originally my personal journal. If you are interested, you can check it out HERE.

I have several other projects in the works, but I’ll tell you about them another time. Today we have some fascinating articles on the health benefits of celery, Vitamin C, and herbs for respiratory issues. Also some great tips for preventing macular degeneration and cleaning your house with safe, non-toxic cleaning supplies.

I would love to hear what you want to read about. Feel free to send your requests, suggestions, questions, or any sort of feedback. I always appreciate hearing from my readers – Please do not reply to this email, but use this link Email Bernadette to contact me.

To your health and happiness!

health benefits of celeryWhy Eat Celery?

Celery is a big deal in health news lately. Anthony William, the Medical Medium, almost singlehandedly started a massive celery juice movement that created a celery shortage last year. The prices skyrocketed and many stores ran out. Now researchers are sitting up and taking notice of this once neglected herb.

Not only does celery contain an impressive array of important vitamins and minerals, it is also an excellent source of antioxidants, fiber, and electrolytes. According to this foodrevolution.org article:

  1. It may help fight cancer
  2. It may reduce inflammation associated with chronic disease
  3. It may reduce your risk of heart disease
  4. It may support male fertility
  5. It may support gut and digestive health

Anthony William also shares a lot about the benefits of celery juice. In fact he wrote a whole book on it. Now more and more people are discovering the healing effects of drinking celery juice every day on an empty stomach. You may want to give it a try!

Why you need vitamin CWhy You May Need More Vitamin C

We all know that vitamin C prevents scurvy, but it appears that it may also prevent heart disease. If you already have heart disease, you may need to take a high dose supplement. Foods alone may not be able to supply enough to heal the damage. The supplemental forms recommended by Anthony William are EsterC and liposomal vitamin C.

From naturalhealth365.com:

In Linus Pauling’s theory, heart disease is actually a manifestation of vitamin C deficiency. And atherosclerosis – with its attendant plaque deposits – is the body’s attempt to heal the cracks in arteries caused by the vitamin C shortfall.

Supplementation with high-dose vitamin C restores heart health in two ways.

Vitamin C scavenges harmful free radicals that cause oxidative stress, while functioning as an important building block for collagen – a protein needed to promote healing, structure and stability in arteries.

Since the 1980s, a host of studies have helped to confirm Pauling’s theory.

Personally, I’ve found that vitamin C can knock out just about any virus or bacterial infection if I take enough of it – especially when combined with ionic zinc, zinc picolinate, or zinc sulphate. Though I sometimes have off days where I feel like I’m fighting off a bug, I haven’t come down with a cold or flu bug in several years even when everyone around me has been catching them. That’s what made me a believer.

Eye HealthPreventing Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration strikes fear in the hearts of many aging adults, but it can be prevented with a healthy diet. You will notice that all the preventative nutrients listed in this naturalhealth365.com article come from deeply colored plant foods:

  1. Lutein [best sources: organic leafy greens, such as kale, spinach, and broccoli]
  2. Zeaxanthin [best sources: organic leafy greens, such as kale, spinach, and broccoli]
  3. Meso-zeaxanthin [best sources: green leafy vegetables, peas, carrots]
  4. Astaxanthin [best sources: marine algae and the marine life that feeds on it]
  5. Saffron
  6. Alpha-carotene [best sources: organic fruits and vegetable that are naturally orange in color – such as pumpkins, carrots, squash and tangerines]
  7. Cyanidin-3-glucoside [best sources: red, blue and purple fruits – particularly in organic plums, pomegranates, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries]

With the exception of Astaxanthin, which is best taken in supplement form, all of these nutrients are easily available in the produce isles of your local grocery or natural food store. Though you can also get some Astaxanthin from eating salmon, wild salmon contains mercury, micro-plastics, and possible Fukushima radiation – and farmed salmon contains a toxic array of antibiotics. No thanks!

In the Kitchen

A couple of my favorite cleaning ingredients are probably already in your kitchen cupboard: white vinegar and baking soda. These items are both eco-friendly and versatile.

For instance, if you mix up a solution of four tablespoons of baking soda in a quart of warm water, it makes a good all-purpose cleaner for your kitchen counters and inside of your fridge. (It’s not a bad idea to keep a bottle of this by your desk at the office, too, to keep your work area clean and fresh.) A paste made from baking soda and water also makes a good scrub for stubborn stains, like those brown marks inside of your coffee mugs that just won’t come off. It works well on greasy stovetops, too.

Vinegar makes a great floor cleaner: Just mix it with hot water and mop. And if you add a cup to your dishwasher and run the rinse cycle, it’ll remove hard-water stains. But vinegar and baking soda aren’t the only great cleaners found in your kitchen. For instance, you can get your pots and pans squeaky-clean by scrubbing it with a heavily salted half a lemon.

In the Bathroom

One of my favorite green cleaning solutions comes in especially handy in the bathroom. Make your own glass cleaner by combining two cups of water and a half-cup of vinegar. Pour this into a spray bottle, and you’ll wonder why you ever thought you needed Windex! Vinegar is also good for the mineral buildup that makes your shower head spray everywhere but straight down. Fill a plastic bag with vinegar, use a rubber band to attach it to the shower head, and leave it overnight, and it’ll dissolve all of that nasty buildup. And to clean your toilet; put equal parts baking soda and vinegar into the toilet bowl, let them fizz and foam, then scrub with a toilet brush.

Around the House

Remember that stuff your mom used to buy and sprinkle all over the carpet before she vacuumed? It turns out that you already have a cheap, all-natural substitute: baking soda. If you want it to smell nice, just add a little of your favorite essential oil to the baking soda, sprinkle it on the carpet, and vacuum to freshen up the rugs and remove odors.

If your wood furniture has seen better days, there’s an easy fix for that: Combine a half-cup of lemon juice with a cup of olive oil to make your own furniture polish. And, if the whole house smells a bit stale, don’t reach for a can of aerosol air freshener; simply grab your favorite aromatic spices, fruit peels, and/or essential oils and boil them in a saucepan on the stove. You could also try the trick a lot of real estate agents use to make a house smell like a home: Bake cookies! The kids are sure to appreciate that.
