I take a hot bath nearly every night to help treat fibromyalgia symptoms. I normally use bath salts, as the minerals are beneficial to the condition and to general health, but sometimes I like to use a bubble bath instead, just for fun.
I was reading an article about …

I try to stick to a high protein, low carb diet during the spring and summer months when I am more active. I don’t always succeed, mainly because it’s difficult to find quality foods or meal-replacement products that are high in protein and actually taste good. Often, …
