At 53, I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and prescribed atorvastatin. This little pill is now part of my journey—but so is learning what high cholesterol does and making better choices. Let’s talk about it.

❤️ **PATIO HEALTH**

At 53, I was recently diagnosed with high cholesterol and prescribed atorvastatin. I’m sharing this because high cholesterol may not come with obvious warning signs, but that doesn’t mean we should ignore it.

I’m learning the importance of knowing my numbers, taking my medication as prescribed, making healthier choices and understanding what can happen inside the body when cholesterol isn’t controlled.

This isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness. My physical, mental and spiritual journey continues, and transparency means sharing the health lessons too.

Have you had your cholesterol checked recently?

🧪🍎🍋 PRESERVATION LAB UPDATE! 🍊🥝

What started as one experiment quickly turned into four!

Today I officially launched Batch #001 of my homemade fruit extracts using dehydrated fruit and flavored Cîroc as the infusion base.

🍏 Green Apple Extract – Apple Cîroc
🍊 Mandarin Extract – Peach Cîroc
🍋 Lemon Extract – Apple Cîroc
🥝 Kiwi Extract – Peach Cîroc

This is all part of my journey toward building a pantry filled with homemade ingredients and learning traditional food preservation skills.

I don’t expect every experiment to be perfect—and that’s okay! Every batch teaches me something new. I’ll be documenting the process, the flavor development, and how each extract performs in future recipes.

From gardening…
To dehydrating…
To sourdough…
To kimchi…
And now… homemade extracts.

The Preservation Lab is growing one project at a time, and I’m excited to see where this journey leads.

Stay tuned for future updates on Batch #001! 🫙✨

I started this onion experiment yesterday 06/29/2026. Woke up this morning (06/30/2026) to check it and change the water before leaving out of town on business. The roots are actively growing:

basic plant physiology in real time:

* The onion bulb is actually a storage organ. It contains carbohydrates and nutrients saved from the previous growing season.
* When you give the basal plate (the root end) access to water, the onion “reads” that as favorable growing conditions.
* Cells begin dividing.
* Root tissues emerge first because the plant’s first priority is securing water and nutrients.
* Once the roots establish, the stored energy in the bulb fuels new leaf growth.

🎬 Episode 4

“Healthy Isn’t Marketing. It’s Math.”

Marketing says:
“Fresh.”
“Light.”
“Fit.”

The label says:
1,240 mg sodium.

If you don’t read the label,
the label reads you.

Healthy isn’t about vibes.
It’s about numbers.

👉🏽👉🏽Check the sodium before it checks you.

Next stop. Next meal. Read it first.

🎬 Episode 3

“Because Healthy-Looking Doesn’t Mean Heart-Smart”

You can lift weights.
You can look strong.
You can feel fine.

And still ignore what’s quietly impacting your heart.

High sodium over time strains the cardiovascular system — even if the food looked clean.

This isn’t about fear.

It’s about awareness.

Strength starts with what you don’t ignore.

👉🏽👉🏽Abs don’t cancel out high blood pressure.

Don’t just build muscle. Protect your heart.
