Comment of the Week

“My husband is an international airline pilot, they have steam ovens on their planes. He brings sardines, beef jerky, nuts, etc. with him on his fights. We do not eat airport food. I am a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and we practice fasting and drink water w/Himalayan salt during travel days and regularly cook our own foods when we are vacationing and camping. Please choose wisely, people. Your whole future is counting on it.”

-Wise words.
