EBT Health and Beauty Tips

While many of us are experiencing serious economic hardships, it is important to stay positive and not allow our economic status prevent us from being healthy and feeling beautiful.  


According to the United States Department of Agriculture, 46.5 million Americans receive Food Stamps.  Recipients redeem these benefits with their Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards.  This is indeed a concerning state of affairs but don't sacrifice your wellbeing.  Instead, learn to make the most out of resources available to you.


In my next several blog entries I will share with you my own personal tips, tricks, and formulas on maintaining beautiful skin, soft hair, and a clean house using items that you can purchase with your EBT card.  These items are not only going to be less expensive than their manufactured, brand name alternatives but they will be safer for you and your family because they won't be full of toxic chemicals!

Everybody is different. Also, every BODY is different. We share genetic similarities with those who we are biologically related to and even those with the same disability or chronic illness. Still, we are all different and require different things to support our health and wellness goals.   I have a connective tissue disorder called, Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). There isn’t a cure for this condition but there are treatments available like, rodding surgery or the use of bisphosphonates. You can read more about these options on the OI Foundation website. While I do share many physical traits of others with OI, I have a lot of differences too. Therefore, I don’t feel that any of these traditional treatments are right for my body. Instead, I have developed a “Jane Maintenance Plan” that has been successfully supporting my health and wellness goals for several years. Herbal supplements play a vital role in my custom wellness plan. The supplement I take that has had the most significant imp
