Dr. Brian Clement has been carrying on the work of Dr. Ann Wigmore – the importance of raw and living foods, wheatgrass, algae, and sprouts. I found his talk to be very inspiring, albeit somewhat harsh at times. Going to a natural health show was an excellent follow-up and we went with a fistful of dollars and some lofty goals. Originally, I had the idea in mind of paying for a succession of body-work treatments, but instead, I exercised my consumerism and picked up a wheatgrass sprouting kit, a juicer, and a plethora of treats. My partner bought the best gift a lady could ever hope to receive: a Vita-Mix blender. Now there are no excuses!
