Sometimes, things just come up in conversation. In trying to be healthier, many of you want to expand your use of household products and food items. This is great!

But, please, check your diet list before implementing things that are healthy and natural. They may be healthy generally, but not be healthy for you right now.

The reason the relative state of imbalance that your body is in will dictate the foods that you can tolerate. Today someone brought up an issue of what kind of soap she was using vaginally. She thought it may have bothered her. It was a natural soap with shea butter. Shea butter is fantastic, but, when your body is in a state of inflammation, the shea butter can be too much. It brought up the topic and I just mentioned that things like shea butter and cocconut oil are wonderful, but that depends on the circumstances. She then told me she was just about to start cooking with cocconut oil. That would have sent her into a flare! It was so good it came up.

So, bottom line: just check with your list before putting something in. Healthy is a word that is surrounded with perspective!
