July is National Grilling Month! While the sun is shining brighter, and the days are growing longer. This is the perfect time to fire up the grill and indulge in delicious, home-cooked meals. During July, we celebrate the dedication to the art of outdoor cooking. We celebrate the joy of sharing meals with family and friends. Although grilling is often associated with the idea of indulgent foods, it’s also a way to prepare healthy and nutritious dishes that can help you and your family stay fit and energized throughout the summer.
In today’s fast-paced world, where schedules are hectic and demands are high, neglecting our well-being to meet external obligations is easy.

Tomorrow, June 21st, is the first day of summer! It’s the perfect time to focus on your health and well-being.

Men live shorter lives than women. They are more at risk of violence, mental ill health, and, sadly, suicide. There are also additional hazardous behaviours such as smoking, drinking, and illicit drug use. The vast majority of workplace deaths occur in men.
We have finally made it to May flowers after enduring April’s showers and while we celebrate the beautiful things that May brings, we also want to shed light on a chronic autoimmune disease that affects more men than women: lupus.
