If you love casseroles but wish there was a way to make them healthier, then you’re in luck! Making your own condensed soup is not only much better for you, but it’s also super quick and easy, using ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen!
There are many oils on the market today. Some well-known, some not. Many people just grab the cheap and accessible vegetable or canola oil off the shelf without realizing the health implications they could have…or that there are so many better options out there! When choosing the correct oil to cook or bake with, there are a few key factors to consider. I cover that, along with the best oils on the market, in this easy guide to the healthiest oils.
I’ve never really been one for setting new year’s resolutions. I am, however, a huge proponent of setting goals throughout the year. I don’t think you should have to wait until January 1 to start over, or start something new.

It seems like screens of one form or another are almost everywhere nowadays. They’re how many receive their news and information, work, entertain themselves, and even learn. And while all of these advances in technology have been a huge blessing and convenience in many ways, they also bring with them a need for awareness of the dangers associated with staring at screens constantly.

Under normal circumstances, many people are indoors 80% of the time. Over the past year and a half…I’d say it’s fair to assume that percentage is even higher. Our homes are supposed to be the place where we are safe. But what if your home is poisoning your body instead? The air within our homes can actually be filled with many different toxic substances. These air pollutants are present in much higher concentrations because indoor areas are often enclosed and less ventilated. This means it is easy for air pollutants to enter your home, but it’s very difficult to get them out!
