		<description><![CDATA[  Resembling the wheat berry in appearance, barley is a whole grain with a chewy texture and robust, nutty flavor.  Originally from Ethiopia and Southeast Asia, barley has been cultivated for over 10,000 years.  It is used as a source of food for people and animals, in the production of alcoholic beverages, and barley water is said to contain medicinal properties.

		<description><![CDATA[  As summer draws to a close many of us are checking our calendars to see if we can squeeze in one more vacation travel adventure before the busy fall season sets in. Vacations are an important part of maintaining a healthy life balance because they allow us a chance to rest and recharge our batteries. The last thing you want when you are enjoying a trip to the beach or the mountains is a bout with gastric distress. Make sure you take proper care of yourself to keep your dream vacation from becoming a gastrointestinal nightmare.  Our bodies follow]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A well-balanced diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, poultry and fish is essential to healthy digestion.  Nutritious foods enhance flora in the gut (the microorganisms present in the digestive tract) and help prevent indigestion, constipation and other digestive issues. An unhealthy digestive system can significantly affect energy levels and absorption of nutrients.  Here are a few ways to ensure healthy digestion in your body!

Read labels carefully and steer clear of foods with unneeded additives and preservatives.  Purchase organic fruits and vegetables to minimize consumption of]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you think you feel uncomfortable on those sizzling summer days just imagine how it would feel to wear a fur coat when the temperatures are in the 90s. Our fluffy four-footed friends need extra help to stay safe and comfortable when the weather is hot. Dogs and cats are prone to the same heat-related problems as humans including heat exhaustion, dehydration and even sunburn. Pets with dark coats, short muzzles and elderly pets are at increased risk for heat-related illnesses. Dogs aren’t as efficient at cooling down as we are because they release most of their body heat through]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The benefits of holistic health are so well documented that many people are extending their holistic health practices to their pets. During the last few years there has been a marked increase in natural healing for animals. Just as human holistic medicine focuses on the “whole” person, holistic animal medicine focuses on the “whole” pet, not just one specific issue or disease. Holistic veterinarians are focused on resolving the cause of the problem, not just alleviating symptoms. Holistic means being open-minded to what is in the best interest of the pet. Holistic practitioners are involved in a pet’s total health,]]></description>
