What’s Your Sodium Style? Take the Sunkist S’Alternative Quiz
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sunkist S’alternative for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I honestly have no idea how much sodium is in the food I am eating.

What Is Quinoa and Why You Should Eat It
First things first. Do you know how to pronounce the word "quinoa"? I'm only asking because I thought it was something like "kwee-no-ah" and it wasn't until months later while I was shopping for some quinoa that I overheard people talking about it and realized that I had been mispronouncing it all that time. Luckily, I had only been saying it that way in my own head. So, for those of you who are still wondering, the proper way to say it is ...

Natural Care For A Healthy Smile: EvoraPlus ProBiotics (Review)
I am a newcomer to the use of Pro-Biotics as a natural approach to oral care and have to admit that before I tried EvoraPlus from Oragenics, I was a bit skeptical.

I gave EvoraPlus a chance because I wanted to see if it could naturally boost my tooth and gum health as well as freshen my breath and gently whiten my teeth. EvoraPlus ...
Keep Your Baby’s Skin Detergent Free With SmartKlean Laundry Ball
A few months ago, I had the opportunity to review a SmartKlean laundry ball. This is a very unique way to do laundry – the main thing that sets it apart to me is that it doesn’t use any form of detergent whatsoever to get your clothes clean (and yes, it works!). No detergent means no harmful chemical residues left behind on my family's clothes, which is especially important now that we have a new baby. When I do my baby’s laundry with the ...
