The potential toxins that we can find in most mass marketed body care products are really broken down into four basic groups: carcinogens, penetration enhancers, allergens, and hormone (endocrine) disruptors. Hormone disruptors are perhaps the least recognized for their ill effects but as a growing body of evidence shows, they should not be ignored or [...]
If you are anything like us you’ve started paying attention to the produce, meats, and products that you’re feeding your families. “Certified organic”, “grass fed”, “free range”, “hormone free”; these are all terms, seals and certifications that I keep an eagle eye out for when I do my grocery shopping. I think it is absolutely [...]
The G.B. Proudfoot’s team were featured guests on the popular ‘Healthy House Call Radio Show’ on KFNX 1100 AM. It was a great general discussion about organic living and how the products that we put on our bodies are just as important as those that we put in our bodies. Tune in again on December [...]

If G.B. had been part of the Twitter revolution he probably would have said something like “Tweeting is for Twits!” or “Did somebody post something about me on Tooter?”. Long story short, we now have a Twitter page! http://twitter.com/GBProudfoots Does anyone know what we do with it Does anybody follow Twitter feeds? We want to [...]

Calendula Officianalis (aka Pot Marigold) is one of those flowers that could quite easily be overlooked were it not for its reputation as a real skin superstar. This unassuming flower won’t win any beauty contests and its fragrance is average to say the least, but what it lacks in sensory appeal it makes up for [...]
