So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Is the Elixir of Long Life our Fountain of Youth?

By Lydia Peru

Thousands of years ago people around the world knew of the values of Kombucha tea. This incredible brew continues to reign as one of the most amazing nutritional supplements, and is all natural.

Two thousand years ago this interesting fungus was used in Korea by a medicine man named Kombu. This healer used this mushroom like fungus to make a tea, or cha, to treat the Emperor. Thus the name of Kombu cha, or Kombucha.

Kombucha is not really a mushroom or a fungus. It's really bacteria and yeast working together to form a culture that looks like a spongy pancake.

How does Kombucha tea serve us? Kombucha is often note for its detoxifying qualities. It assists the liver in clearing toxin buildup. Our acid and alkaline levels are also restored by the balancing qualities of Kombucha.

Digestion can be improved by drinking small quantities of Kombucha tea before or after a meal. Kombucha does not disturb the healthy flora in the intestines, but aids in digestion, providing a pro-biotic effect.

This pH restorative drink has been honored for its positive affect on arthritis and rheumatism and skin conditions such as acne. This elixir of long life has been studied for its benefits in the treatment of cancer and tumors.

It is easy to include Kombucha in your daily diet, and the benefits can be seen in healthy hair and radiant skin. Our animal companions can benefit from this elixir as well. Over time many things are replaced by more effective methods, but Kombucha continues to serve as the elixir of life, even centuries later.
