About Me
Now that I'm a senior, I find it difficult to get around like I did as a younger person. But I won't let that stop me from doing the things I love to do every day. After speaking to my doctor about my health, I realize that there are so many things I can use to improve the way I get around town and home. Instead of relying on my kids to take me shopping or to the doctor, I call a senior care taxi for my needs. I also use my motorized wheelchair to help me move around my home. This independence helps me focus on what's important in life — my family. I hope that as a senior, you also find ways to improve your life. My blog can help you do so.

Obtain All The Nutrients And Benefits From The Placenta Powerhouse....Without Actually Eating One!

Formally known as placentophagia, the practice is widespread in the animal kingdom; in fact, humans are one of the few mammals who turn up their noses at fresh afterbirth. However, as science continues to reveal the placenta's nutritional jackpot, many people are reconsidering their aversion to placentophagia--and exploring alternative ways to obtain the organ's benefits without actually eating the same one attached to their own newborn baby.
