My favorite culture? I love Jewish kosher food! I used to work in Miami Beach, Florida. They had great Jewish restaurants. Jewish kosher delicatessens made the best sandwiches in the world! My next favorite food is Chinese. I loved eating at Chinese restaurants. The tea, the crispy noodles, the won ...

This is just my opinion based on watching a lot of British TV shows. I think their diet of the Brits sucks! I have seen plates of food that had eggs, potatoes beans, sausage and bacon.

I did not used to take nutritional supplements but I do now. I take a fruit and vegetable powder blend that is specially formulated for women over 50. I also take sublingual vitamin B-12 tablets because it helps increase my energy level. I can honestly say that I notice the difference when I don't t...

No. I have never tried massage therapy. But I know that it works and that it is absolutely fabulous! My daughter does not go to a professional massage therapist. She buys at-home massage equipment.
