~Ellie's Corner~
   How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. ~Anne Frank

During this time of such turmoil in Japan, we are all affected in some way by the terrible devastation that has happened to this Earth. My prayer is that today on St Patricks day, that we will be reminded of what matters most in life and join together to be more gentle and kind to ourselves and to others around us and to make a difference in the ways that we can! Life is so fragile.

One of the stories that has impacted me is the miraculous rescue of the 4 month old Japanese baby. In spite of so much devastation and death, a little baby somehow survived.  What a miracle!

As we support each other through whatever may come in life, continue to pursue Health by eating healthy and by getting out to enjoy the Spring that is slowly piercing through the cold!

Thank you for your support!

Blessings on you!
~Ellie

Check out some of the new information I have added to GotFlax.com:

Flaxseed for Eczema
Flax seed has also significantly improved my eczema. Since my son was born 11 years ago I have had problems with eczema. It was so bad that I would itch until I bled. It would travel across my body, showing up on my legs, arms and stomach in large patches.

Since I started taking the flax seeds, my eczema has cleared up to the point where I only see an occasional small bump on my arm or leg that itches slightly but goes away quickly. I would recommend taking flax seeds to everyone...you may be surprised by benefits you will receive! ~Michelle J  Read more of Michelle's Story.

Flaxseed and Dogs?    I've just been reading on another dog health website that Flax is not a good way of getting Omega 3 for dogs, as they lack the ability to convert Flax into ALA to EPA and DHA.    It said that instead, it was better to give them fish oils.  Do you know if there's any truth to this please?     
****** Hi Sally, This is an excellent question and one that is debated quite a bit. We actually get this question for both pets and humans!  A lot of the information that claims flax Omega 3 oil isn't beneficial comes from research that was funded by... guess who? Fish oil companies...
