ALPHA GAL Syndrome.
When a bite from a lone star tick can change your life. Allergic to meat and dairy.
Maybe there is more to this than a simple cause and effect. Are our immune systems so primed now from years of medications that it only takes a small insect to tip the balance?

Are we being primed to fear the tick so much we forget to look at the bigger picture?

The terrain is everything!

Coffee Conversations is Anne's June Topical Commentary article

Anxiety was the topic of conversation with a customer the other day. He reckoned we are so anxious now because of all the coffee we drink. I think he may have a point.

No coffee no workee is a fridge magnet I have at home and hey it is familiar! I do like a cup of coffee with raw cream..!

While I rage at the proliferation of Monster in recent years perhaps I should pay more attention to the coffee? Have you noticed how the coffee cup is the ultimate accessory?

The habit of walking and drinking may be amplifying the stress in our lives. Today the coffee has become more like confectionary. Syrups and UPFs. Diabetes in a cup anyone?

Walking purposefully with the cup on the way to work in the morning. A familiar scene of modernity.
