HOLLER FOR YOUR HEALTH:
Be the Key to a Healthy Family

If there is one book you need to read to learn how toxins are making us sick and what to do about it, this is it. Holler for Your Health courageously says it like it is, and makes us take a serious look at the choices we make that contribute to our toxic environment. But more importantly, she guides us and empowers us with new choices to heal our bodies and our environment. She teaches us the most important lesson of the 21st century that our health is intimately linked to the health of the planet.

--Mark Hyman, MD, New York Times best-selling author of UltraMetabolism and The UltraSimple Diet

Holler For Your Health by Teresa Holler

The problem: Toxic chemicals are bad for health and health is getting bad. In the span of one industrial century the incidence of cancer has soared from 1 in 8000 to nearly 1 in 2. In fact, nearly half of all Americans now suffer from at least one chronic illness. The sharp rise in childhood illnesses such as asthma, autism, ADD, and childhood cancers are especially bothersome. Most chemical exposures result from products intended for use in or around the home. And so our greatest toxic threat comes from our own purchasing decisions.

The Solution: This means we have the power to change the state of our health by simply choosing to purchase safer products.

The Difficulty: Toxic chemicals are frequently omitted from labels and grocery shopping practically requires a PhD in chemistry.

The Answer: Holler for Your Health: Be the Key to a Healthy Family uncovers the truth about the hazardous products lurking in and around your home and provides practical solutions to minimize exposure to harmful chemicals.

The Bottom Line: You cannot rely on well-meaning doctors who are not trained to deal with toxic chemicals nor can you expect lax government regulations to insure only safe products line store shelves. You must take control of your family's health in order to increase the odds of remaining healthy in this era of illness.

Discover:

-the scientific evidence regarding vaccinations and autism

-the problem with silver dental fillings

-which plastic products are safe and which are not

-how to find out what is in your drinking water and how to choose an effective water purification system

-how to select less toxic food, children s toys, personal care products, cleaning supplies, cookware, and more Strategies to avoid toxins are offered to accommodate all families regardless of income. T

Holler for Your Health empowers each of us to take control of our own health rather than focusing on the institutions that are failing to protect us. The solution, to stop treating and start preventing disease, truly is in reach. It lies within each of us.

A Tiny Home to Call Your Own:
Living Well in Just Right Houses
by Patricia Foreman and Andy Lee, 208ppb


You can live in an attractive, aesthetically appealing, upscale house AND you can do it so that it is quality built, architecturally beautiful, highly marketable and profitable. Small is beautiful and functional in housing. Smaller scale homes can be more livable, cozy, homey, enjoyable, low maintenance, and easy to clean. Tiny houses (300 sq.ft. to around 1,000 sq.ft.) can be more affordable and socially responsible than the current trend of "McMansionization" that is chewing up America. Some of them can be built on existing lots without requiring new land purchase.

Impress neighbors with style and freedom
rather than with large scale, impersonally built square footage.

Uses for Tiny Houses include:
• Anyone who wants less space to maintain in exchange for more time, freedom and money.

• For folks to have an an independent place of their own, yet be close by, such as an elderly parent, student, or return-to-the-nest kid.

• Newly weds, newly divorced, singles (for what ever reason) and for those with hermit-like tendencies who simply want their own space — to themselves.

• Your personal "away space", home office, professional work space, writer's or artist's studio or rental for extra passive income.

• As a starter house desgined for future expansion as the family grows and money becomes available.

• To host guests separately, they can be close by, but not" in your face" space. You know those visiting "in-law" stories.

• A vacation home by the lake or in the woods — that doesn't cost a bundle AND has all the creature comforts of home. Table of Contents

FAMILY FRIENDLY FARMING: A Multigenerational Home-Based Business Testament

    Joel Salatin (and family), 400ppb.
    Family friendly farming offers hope for stressed families, dissatisfied employees, and hurried-harried lifestyles.  It is no secret that family farms are in trouble. The average age of US farmers is over 60 and the brightest, best young people flee from farming. This leaves our precious rural landscape not cared for by true stewards of the land. Owners who think in terms of seasons and generations, instead of 4th quarter profits. Joel and his family have demonstrated, and openly shared, their experiences, both successes and failures about what it take to have a successful, Earth friendly family farm. If you are thinking about farming this book is not only one you must read - but it is one you must study. Hats off and a standing ovation to the Salatin family for helping show us the way to a better paradigm of food production.
