What is making us sick?  Sometimes we know and many times we do not have a clue.  The many different products and consumer goods that are a part of our everyday life could be contributing to our being healthy or not being healthy.

Health hazards and what could be impacting our health is something we all need to be very aware of.  From chemicals in cleaning supplies, carpet glue, caffeine, drugs and other items could be impacting what is healthy and not healthy for us.

Most of us have heard about the "meat recalls" and "mad cow" problems with meat.  These things are very, very serious folks.  If you eat meat, and I do NOT, you better know what you are eating and where it came from.  Do people understand that some of our food is coming from Genetically Engineered processes?  These is not good.  From the fast food shops to restaurants and stores, you need to understand what you are eating.  Reading labels can usually help, but, what do you do when you are out eating?  Be careful and eat what you believe can be safe for you.  Most fish you eat at a restaurant will be farm-raises which is very bad.  Unless they advertise the fish as "wild", I will not eat it.

Soy and organic products can help reduce some of the food hazards we place in us.  Every day we are bombarded with items and products in our daily journey.  From taking a shower in the morning to brushing our teeth at night.  Do you know what goes into your soap, shampoo, conditioner, breakfast food, laundry detergent, food you have at lunch and any other thing you see, taste or feel during your day.  The point is, by taking a little bit of time to read labels and make decisions based on what might be good for us, we can make small changes that will make us healthier.

Now we are hearing that cellphones may cause different health problems.  Most of us own a cellphone or use one during the day, so if this is true, we all may be having problems here down the road.  Of course the phone companies will not tell us they are bad because they sell phones and make money.  Do not expect the major companies to come out and say that their products are health hazards and we should stop using them.  NO, you need to find out if they hurt you and then you make the choice to stop using that product and find alternatives.
