Nourishing Nuggets Introduction/”Let Your Food Be Your Medicine”

Welcome to Nourishing Nuggets! I am so thankful you have decided to join us! There seems to be no end to the number of books written annually about what is truly healthy. It is no secret that many of them conflict. One can easily become discouraged and give up all together!! I have been tempted to! While Nourishing Nuggets is not intended to be a comprehensive course, it is designed to give you small Nuggets introducing some of the basic concepts of health!

During our busy homeschool days it is sometimes difficult to fit “Health” into our already numerous subjects! Perhaps if like me, you have tried to find a good health course and found that after a few taxing workbook pages yet another workbook tossed, never completed due to its ill fit! It is my hope that Nourishing Nuggets will deliver you brief, yet helpful lessons in health that you can use with any type of home educating style.

I intend to introduce topics and provide information in a manner that will give you a good foundation to pursue further, should you or your children choose to do so. I am writing from a Biblical perspective and hope to present a balanced view without taking you down a path into any extreme recommendations! Thank you so much for joining me and if you have questions or comments feel free to e-mail them to me [wstoller@msn.com]! Please place Nourishing Nuggets Question/Comment in the subject line for easy identification. I hope to include a Q & A and answer as much as I am able in one of the later lessons!! I want this to be helpful to you!
