What do we need to open our minds?

It's a fact - we all do it.  We hear and read about healthy living. For most of us, it's only when we have a real problem to solve that we prick up our ears and really listen.

This happened to us when our children were little and we simply had to make changes in order for them to be healthy.

Air pollution is now one of our greatest environmental health threats.

This is why there is such a global interest in air pollution. A message from our supplier prior to the launch of Hextio: "Our entry (into Smogathon - ‘Technologies For Fighting Smog’) was with Hextio and based on providing people with a safe indoor environment - we were the only air purification technology and only team from  the UK to get through to the final. We came first in the grand finale and fifth overall."

It's hard to overestimate the benefits of a well-fitting, efficient allergy mask when it comes to breathing protection at home and on the go.

Contrary to popular belief, masks are not just for sufferers of severe allergies. In fact, virtually everyone can benefit from a mask. Whether it's for commuting and cycling to cleaning the house and walking the dog, a mask can make a range of everyday activities healthier and more comfortable.

And now that the hay fever season is upon us, a mask can really help to reduce your sysmptoms.

We’re told to try to drink 8 glasses of water per day to help us stay healthy. Yet, just how healthy is the water that comes from our kitchen taps? 

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS).

MCS as it's known in the "trade" is difficult to diagnose and even more difficult to live with. This is partly because so little is known about it within routine medicine. Strictly speaking it's not an allergy but it is a condition that is only too familiar to many of our customers. It is in fact the reason that The Healthy House came into being 25 years ago.

Rather than preaching to those who know they are chemically sensitive, the purpose of this information is to explain a little to those who may be sufferers themselves and not know it or may have a family member whose unsolved symptoms could be a reaction to chemicals.

SerSu Essences were developed and created by registered homeopath Serena Macbeth and naturopathic doctor Susan Wolff in 2007. Together they created natural solutions to some of the growing physical challenges in everyday lives, specifically targeting the physical stresses that many people experience from electronic devices, chemicals, and both man-made and natural airborne substances. Using their joint knowledge, they also found solutions to some of the emotional stresses experienced in most people's everyday lives and created the corresponding supportive remedies.

Serena has kindly answered some of our questions regarding the SerSu products, which we hope will help others to understand more about how the remedies are made and their potential benefits for users.
