In fact, just about every clinical study related to the health benefits of Cannabis sativa has also been done on its power-packed cousin, Nigella sativa, with similar powerful results! Ingredients: Nigella sativa (Black Seed) Oil, Cannabis sativa (Hemp) Oil, Copaifera officinalis (Copaiba) Oil, Humulus lupulus (Hops) Oil, Helichrysum italicum (Helichrysum) Oil, Curcuma longa (Turmeric) Oil, Piper nigrum (Black Pepper) Oil, Mentha piperita (Peppermint) Oil.

FALLing in Love
Fall is a great time to find love! It’s the time of year where leaves change colour and the air turns crisp. Single people often want to find someone to call their own to cozy up with and enjoy the life with. Although it’s sad to see the end of the summer as the nights draw in, autumn can bring with it opportunities to find, develop and deepen our relationships. As with all of nature, the fewer hours of sunlight also engender in us a desire to slow down, get cozy and turn our focus homewards. We are more likely to want to spend time indoors with a partner in the evenings and this brings with it the chance for more intimacy through conversation, cuddling and working on home projects together. Winter activities as well as hibernation are much more satisfying when it is shared with love!
Medication: Take with Questions!
Medication mix-ups can and do happen. Asking questions is a powerful action that can improve medication safety. It’s easy for even the average person to lose track of what they are taking and how often they are taking it. Ask your pharmacist and other members of your healthcare team about your medications. Be sure to ask questions every time a new medication is prescribed, given, or purchased. And finally, ask questions in the hospital, at the pharmacy, and during healthcare appointments. Questions save lives; it’s safe to ask.
Aging at Home
85% of seniors have done nothing to prepare their home for aging. It is important to be aware of the day-to-day tasks your loved one may face and assess the risks accordingly. This can be done by adapting their home to make sure they are safe on their own. Beneficial aids can help an older adult look after their home with dignity. These include chairlifts, ramps, rails, reaching tools, grabbers, and remote controls. These changes can also reduce stress for them. Minimizing risks and making a home safe is so important. Let’s support our loved ones in living healthy, independent, enjoyable lives.
Seniors and Medication Use
It’s important to help seniors use their medications properly and consistently to ensure they get the intended benefits and avoid the possible side effects. Ensuring that seniors are able to access their medication is the first step. For those who are no longer able to drive, having someone provide them with transportation can ensure they are able to pick up their medications when they need to. Seniors who have trouble keeping track of their medications and when to take them may need assistance with scheduling and storage of their medications. Monitoring for side effects may also be required in case they are unaware of their symptoms.
What is HIIT Training?
HIIT training is known as “high-intensity interval training”. This type of training is where you perform short bouts of high-intensity exercises, followed by longer recovery phases. Typically, HIIT sessions will last around 30 to 40 minutes. These workouts burn fat effectively, improve your cardiovascular health, drive your metabolism up, even for hours afterwards, as well as help provide improved athletic capacity and condition. These workouts are ideal if your goal is fat loss and you are short on time…a much better alternative to longer, steady state cardio such as spending an hour on the treadmill.
School Year Fitness Options
With the season changing, we see many outdoor activities coming to an end. Children are back in school, where they sit for the majority of the time; therefore, it is important to plan and schedule indoor activities that engage their mind and body. By having a regular indoor class, it will help children stay fit and decrease time spent with electronic devices. There are many benefits for children who have regular physical activity; it reduces blood sugar levels, controls weight, and much more! Keeping your children active all year round is as easy as finding a fitness class for them.
Pet Health: Product Review
It’s officially cold season, and not just for people. While dogs can’t “catch” a cold from their humans (the viruses that cause colds in people are generally species-specific), many viruses do infect dogs, such as canine adenovirus type 2, canine respiratory coronavirus, and canine parainfluenza virus. It’s important to see your veterinarian if your dog is ill, but the HB Naturals Cold & Congestion Essential Oils Blend is a natural and effective remedy to be used in conjunction with traditional veterinary care. The natural ingredients found in this product include Eucalyptus radiata, Cinnamomum camphora (Ravintsara), Melaleuca quinquenervia bs. viridiflora (Niaouli), and Cannabis sativa (hemp seed) oil.
