As the month of September comes to an end, we also wrap up the September is Salba Month here on Evolving Wellness.

Throughout this month the focus was to introduce you, the reader, to the nutritional powerhouse – Salba and the various food products from SourceSalba that are made with this amazing ancient grain.

We started the month off with a review of the original whole Salba seed and a very useful article for all those of us out there who enjoy chewing gum, entitled “Do You Know What Is In Your Gum?”

In the middle of the month I presented you with a review of the Salba Life Flats and a thought provoking article, entitled “How Is Your Diet Affecting Climate Change?”

We finished the month off with the final reviews of Salba products that included: the Rice Krispy Bars, the outstanding Whole Food Organic Fruit & Nut Bars and the Chewy Ancient Grains Bars.

Throughout the month we also learned the history of Salba and examined some popular Salba questions and answers.

This month, as always, a few new recipes joined our site, including one with Salba – the Organic Nectarine Salba Salad.

As for what’s in store next month? In October, Evolving Wellness will go back to its core focus of natural and balanced living in all areas of our lives for optimum health. I have a few excellent resource books to share with you regarding that topic and we are going to dissect what really is inside of the world’s so called “favorite” drink, Coca-Cola.

As well, October is known worldwide as Vegetarian Awareness Month and so Evolving Wellness will focus on some important vegetarian issues like how to get the most out of your vegetarian diet and the benefits of eating a vegetarian diet.

Till then – Live Long! Live Healthy! Live Happy!
