Giggles Drop-In Childcare to open in Charlotte

We are so happy to announce that Giggles Drop-In Childcare is coming to Charlotte! With not one, but TWO locations. We know. It’s exciting. Affordable, flexible, on-demand childcare designed with the modern family in mind, and coming to your area! The first of both locations will be located in the Ballantyne area, with Greer Brown as the owner and operator. With years of personal experience in childcare, we are elated to have her on our team and to have her serve your community as your go-to drop-in childcare provider. So many families are juggling work, to-do lists, playdates, school drop-offs, lunch dates, school pickups, after-school care, date nights, running errands, and the list goes on… the good news is that Giggles can help with that spinning feeling. It’s moments like these that we are so happy to be able to provide on-demand childcare for our families. We maintain a high standard for ourselves by providing an impeccably clean, modern space. A place where kids can be kids and parents are free to take a well-deserved break. Accepting children aged 12 months to 12 years, Giggles will be a huge asset to parents in the Ballantyne community, and we could not be happier to have Greer representing our mission to you. More information on opening events and dates, along with our second Charlotte-Area location is to come! Be sure to follow along with us on social media for more news and updates, and all things Giggles.

Food Sensitivities. Hidden opposition on the road to optimal nutrition

The American diet has many flaws. It is processed, full of hidden sugars, and chemical-laden, but did you know that natural foods can cause unpleasant side effects that typically go undetected? These symptoms can range from headaches to abdominal pain and even weight gain. A food sensitivity is not a food allergy. An insensitivity can occur with foods that you tolerate well and even eat daily. However, food tolerance does not guarantee safety against the body’s inflammatory response. This ongoing inflammation or “chronic inflammation” is what causes symptoms and some of these effects can be detrimental to health. To make matters even more complicated, food sensitivities are often difficult to identify because reactions occur days after food ingestion. The good news is that testing for food sensitivities is simple. A finger stick blood sample is all that is needed and this is sent to a special lab to test the blood for antibodies (part of the body’s defense against harmful exposures). If antibodies to certain foods are found it is documented on the lab results and scored for severity. A doctor or certified specialist then analyzes these results and discusses a treatment plan to reduce the inflammatory reaction. Over time symptoms subside and people feel better; some even find it easier to lose stubborn body fat.
