They have an open marketplace that is so big they have bikes with baskets to ride around and purchase!!! Locations in Italy, Los Angeles, NY, Chicago, Las Vegas opening December 2018! It is such an amazing experience…I came home from Italy with a whole suitcase…well, the suitcase arrived a week after me! ;-P(
Odd Bagels! OMG these are like a NY Bagel without any allergens! Chewy and flavorful! Use my discount code FAVORITES before (12/31) for 15% off the whole order. Everything Bagels are my favorite and for a sweet topping use the Plain. There are several flavors. www.oddbagel.com

Bread SRSLY-San Francisco Sourdough that’s Gluten-free, Dairy-free and Egg-free and tastes just like the best Sourdough you’ve ever had. Note: Must be toasted! Various flavors.

Miscellaneous important things to have and share:
If you only make one change I recommend you drink pure filtered water in a stainless steel(no plastic cap) or glass bottle! A great start! Drink half your weight in ounces per day! You will feel so much better and avoid many illnesses and cancer from plastics!
Eco Friendly gifts and unique stuff you will love: many wonderful artisan and eco friendly products and gifts on this site!
Nimbus Microfine Compact Toothbrushes(Adults&Kids)
Amazon
Extra soft toothbrushes that are compact and reach and clean teeth and gums is so important. I also love
Sonicare sonic electric toothbrushes which clean better than regular toothbrushes!
Waterpick or Water Flosser to get food and bacteria out of places(between teeth and under gum-line) that toothbrushes cannot get! This totally changed my oral health! Use it everyday with warm filtered water
Klean Kanteen Reflect Stainless Steel Bottle & Interior Cap
You do not want a bottle that has any plastic…chemicals from plastic will get into your hot beverages and poison you!
AquaTru Water Filter-If you only make one change, drink pure filtered water in a stainless or glass bottle!
Excellent countertop Reverse osmosis and carbon, 3 filter purifying filtration system. Endorsed by many well respected doctors! We love ours! We recommend you get the mineral drops and sign up for the auto-ship for refill filters. It is an investment up front, but will save you money and hassles over time. You only need to replace filters a few times a year!

So please consider switching to organic materials and clothing! Give one away, buy a new better one! It will help your health be better and the environment and all that is trying to survive in it!

Shoes I love: Ugg boots & slippers, haflinger.com
Bath/Body: Are Toxic chemicals are lurking in your bathroom and on your skin, scalp and hair? Go Organic, Non-toxic, phalate-free, Paren-free, SLS-free, Gluten-free and Vegan and you will be better off! These all are linked/correlated with cancer, skin rashes, hormone disruption and endocrine system disruption/disorders/diseases! Yikes!
Thrive Market and CredoBeauty.com are great for non-toxic, Gluten-free, Vegan, Phalate-free, Paraben-free cosmetics and makeup!
Nourish Organic Argan Body Butter-very thick and soothing to dry feet, legs, hands etc…I use it every night before bed!
Facial Wash & Products: UrsaMajor.com or on credobeauty.com My Chelle, Acure, Jeffery James
Make-up: Mineral Fusion mascara & make-up, ILIA, Lilly Lolo-www.credobeauty.com , No Miss mascara & remover on Thrive Market
Hair Color: Herbatint for at home, or Goldwell Top Chic professional formula for your hairdresser. Yep, what you put on your scalp goes directly into your bloodstream in 30 seconds without the help of your Liver! And, it will cause damage if it has ingredients you are sensitive to or toxic chemicals!
Body Wash: Earth Mama, Andalou, Acure, Acure Cocoa Butter & CoQ10(very creamy & moisturizing) All on Thrive Market, use my link above.
Not positive if Dr. Bronner’s is Gluten-free, but I don’t see any ingredients that contain gluten on the label-this is Dr. Brad’s favorite.
Shampoo/Conditioner: Acure, Mineral Fusion, Seaweed Co., My Sprout
I prefer shampoos for oily-normal care to clean well and a light conditioner for thin oily hair and deep conditioner for thick dry hair. For oily scalp and a deep clean I use Earth Science Olive Avocado Shampoo & then a deep conditioner.
Pets:
You pet needs an organic comfy bed too that is non-toxic!
The Dog’s Bed, Premium Plush Orthopedic Waterproof Memory Foam Dog Beds, 5 Sizes/7 Colors: Eases Pet Arthritis, Hip Dysplasia & Post Op Pain, Quality…
Pet Food: I am a huge advocate of a raw diet as it healing our rescue kitty that was ill from a rough start. There are studies showing that kibbles lead to cancer(the risk has dramatically gone way up to 50% of Dogs getting Cancer now!)
- I love SFRaw.com and you can go there if you live in the SF Bay Area.
- Otherwise go online to raw food pet companies like darwinspet.com
- At least gradually switch your fur-babies food to a dehydrated raw dry food that is only meat instead of the harmful carbs and fillers and oils. For canned and dry the best is Ziwipeak from New Zealand and often in pet stores in the US! www.ziwipet.com
Mercola flea and tick for cats and dogs! Please, please do not use flea and tick collars that have a very bad/even deadly effect on pets! The neurotoxins go into their bloodstream and cause rashes, seizures and death and illness that you many not know is happening until it is too late…like cancer!
Our fur-baby Romeo eats 90% raw or more and gets Ziwipeak Venison(heating) and Beef(neutral) air-dried dry food at night.
Find a truly Holistic Vet that uses herbs and acupuncture. An easy start is to get your pet eating healthy first which will eliminate a lot of illness and discomfort! Its like humans you can pay the grocery bill or you can pay the medical expenses later which are much higher and more painful! https://www.ahvma.org
Splurges/Big Purchases/Investments in your health!
Are you eating organic and wearing organic clothing so you protect your endocrine system and hormones, but you are sleeping on a TOXIC BED! We spend a huge amount of time(I hope at least 8 hours a night in bed) so it needs to be toxic-free! Regular beds are filled with super toxic ingredients/chemicals. This purchase is worth the investment in your health that will last at least 10 years…do the math!
PlushBeds.com Please use our Affiliate #1376289 Dr. Brad West & Lauren Hoover-West. You get a discount and we get a commission! We love our adjustable organic bed! We got a second one that is gel memory foam for our Mom’s house when we visit!!
Sunlighten Sauna
We all need to detox and heal…one of the best ways to detox on a deep cellular level is an infrared sauna that is non-toxic. This is the best we have found and it has a lot of bells and whistles! We love the smell of our Cedar sauna and there are 5 cycles from pain to heart health and detox…So cozy in the cold months too!
