Peak of the Week- Here are some things that piqued my interest this week

February 22, 2017 by Sharon

It’s Wednesday- the peak of the week!! I hope all is well for everyone!

Gut Bacteria
I know read every article that I find on gut c. It really is a fascinating subject. I am trying really hard to be sure that I eat so that the bacteria in my gut will keep me healthy. Here is the latest article that I’ve read on the subject.

Free Pictures to use online
When I was a librarian, I went to Austin every year to a technology conference- TCEA. I learned so much every year. They shared a list compiled by an attendee of places online to find pictures to use online!

60 year old starts running!!
I loved this because it shows that it is never too late to do something that we really want. Since I am struggling with getting back into running in my own life, this article really spoke to me.

Neti Pot  – I use a neti pot twice a day right now. I will have to use a neti pot at least once a day for the rest of my life. This article made the rounds on social media this past week. I had a conversation about this at my last appointment because I was going to be traveling to California and I wanted to know if it was OK for me to use bottled water instead of the purified water that I normally use. He told me that I can use tap water. The chances of getting the ameba are very slim.

Since I am perimenopausal- This article was good
So many of my friends have had issues with menopause and I want to make sure that I am as healthy as I can be while experiencing all of the changes going on in my body.
