A MotherHood Experience: ThreeWorks Apple Chips

skip to main | skip to sidebar

ThreeWorks Apple Chips

The kids have been back to school for almost two months now, we pretty much have the routine in tact from getting up and ready to returning home and of course enjoying that after school afternoon snack. Ever notice it seems the whole family could use a pick-me-up around 3pm? Afternoon snacks are an every day ritual in our house, the kids are always scouring the cupboards and fridge for something quick to munch on.

As any parent, I want my kids to enjoy a healthy afternoon snack. Not junk food with empty calories, loaded with sugar that will have them jumping off the walls and crashing by the time supper is on the table.

We were recently introduced to Apple Chips by ThreeWorks Inc! They are a healthy alternative to one of our original favourite snacks, chips - except instead of being made from potatoes they are made from Apples!

ThreeWorks Inc are a Toronto, Ontario based food company offering different healthy alternative options for food and beverage to families across Canada. They are also helping sponsor my trip to ShesConnected Conference, they supplied the funds I'll need to feed myself during the trip - how fitting a sponsorship!

ThreeWorks sent us along a cute gift basket of Apple Chips goodies in a variety of flavours for us to try and information about them to share with all of you.


ThreeWorks Apple Chips launched in Canada earlier this year. Apple Chips are unlike your typical dried fruit snack. They are dehydrated using a proprietary technique to retain all of the nutriens and the crunch. If you love the crunch of a potatoe chip, Apple Chips will surprise you but with more goodness. Apple Chips are made with the best real sliced Fuji Apples for a sweeter, less tart snacking experience. Apple Chips are fat free, gluten free, not fried and have no added sugar or GMO. Apple Chips have no artificial colours or flavours, all natural.

Apple Chips come in 6 flavours including Original, Cinnamon, Caramel and Mixed Berries which we got to try out. Apple Chips come in a resealable container (similar to that of a popular potatoe chip we all know) and in two sizes! One to share and one perfect for on the go! Apple Chips are all natural and also nut-free so they make a great healthy snack to send off to school or on outings.


Our?package of Apple Chips goodness arrived just in time for after school snacking. The kids are always interested?in trying out any new foods and didn't resist the?Apple Chips. Although we haven't tried them all just yet, I can imagine they are all yummy considering we all really liked the Cinnamon and Mixed Berry?flavoured ones. They taste just like pie, we all love apple pie in this house! If you're looking for a quick, healthy snack try out new Apple Chips by ThreeWorks!

Apple Chips can be purchased at select Loblaws, No Frills, Safeway, select Shoppers Drug Mart locations in the GTA, London Drugs, Northwest Company, select Shell Canada locations, Highland Farms, Michael Angelo's, Starsky, and Denninger's.

Cure Acid Reflux With Natural Remedies - PDF

Cure Acid Reflux With Natural Remedies

Acid reflux and heartburn are often related to diet, stress and lifestyle. To sort out the
problem for good, these issues need to be addressed; but in the meantime a number of
natural remedies for acid reflux will bring relief from its symptoms.

Herbal powders

Marshmallow, liquorice and ginger root herbal powders or capsules are very effective in
dealing with acid reflux and heartburn. You can buy them from natural health food shops or
herbal suppliers.

For an almost instantaneous relief take marshmallow root powder when you experience
symptoms. Mix one teaspoon of the powder with some warm water to create a thick liquid.
Swallow this and wash down with some more water. If you are also taking conventional
medication, do not take the two at the same time. Leave a gap of half an hour.

Alternatively, take liquorice root powder as described above. People with high blood
pressure, heart, kidney or liver problems or suffering from water retention or low potassium
should avoid it. Use with caution if pregnant or elderly.

Ginger root will absorb stomach acid. Take a ginger root capsule immediately after dinner.

Liquid remedies

Increase your daily water intake. This will help to dilute the acids in the stomach and
minimise the symptoms. Drink one or two glasses of water after you have eaten and also in
between meals.

Apple cider vinegar is known to be an effective natural cure for acid reflux. Use organic apple
cider vinegar and shake it well. There should be a pulpy substance floating within it. This is
actually what you need to consume. This substance contains enzymes that will break down
the stomach acid. Add one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to a glass of water and drink
this mix shortly before or after a meal three times a day.

Potato juice can also help to eliminate an acid condition in the stomach. For such treatment,
use the juice of mature red potatoes. Wash the potatoes and let them dry out. Then grate
and squeeze them. The juice should be consumed as soon as is it made.

Remedies for chewing

Selected seeds and fruits also make great natural remedies for acid reflux.


Take half a teaspoon of fennel seeds and chew them slowly after your meals. Fennel seed is
known to suppress spasms of the stomach or gastrointestinal tract.

Almonds are another great way to eliminate the effects of acid reflux. Chew on a few
almonds after each meal. Chew them very well, the longer the better.

Eating an apple after a meal will also keep your symptoms at bay. Organically grown apples
chewed slowly and well can reduce the acid in the stomach, thus eliminating the acid reflux.

Alternatively, eat a portion of papaya. It contains digestive enzymes that speed up the
digestive process. Papaya chewable tablets can be purchase in health stores.

Chewing gum may seem an unusual remedy for acid reflux but it is actually quite effective.
By stimulating the production of saliva it dilutes stomach acids and minimises the symptoms.
Avoid mint flavoured chewing gums as mint is known to worsen acid reflux in many people.

Herbal teas

A range of herbal teas will also reduce the amount of acid in your stomach and relieve the
symptoms of acid reflux and heartburn.

Make an aniseed and lavender tea. Mix together equal amounts of each herb. Boil 300 ml
water and pour over two teaspoons of the herbal mixture. Leave to infuse for 3 to 5 minutes,
then strain the herbs. You can add honey as a sweetener if you wish. Sip one or two cups of
this tea in the morning and evening.

Slowly drink 1-3 cups of meadowsweet or marshmallow leaf tea a day or lemon balm tea if
your heartburn is related to stress. Fennel or chamomile tea are also good.

Conventional medication like antacids and acid blockers have unwanted side effects
including headache, diarrhoea, dizziness, constipation, nausea and vomiting. Learning how
to use natural cures for acid reflux for managing this condition will help you live a healthier
and acid reflux free life.

James L. - WyzAnt

Often Professors, Teachers, Tutors, Education Assistants are respected and even revered; still yet the uniquely crucial role played by many in addition to invaluable contributions not merely to our communities but more specifically our Earth Citizen civilization in its' entirety, merit a salutation for their gifts of servitude that could never suffice. Education and Educators bestow upon the global village that most finite resource, the most valuable investment possible to children, adolescents, and adults alike what has been termed in Academia Circles of Economists as "An investment in human capital". Though the overbearing market reference inferring the defining characteristics of the fundamentalist, global free market economy apply to human beings in virtually identical, parallel metaphor as any other commodity to be dickered over, ever reducing value in ideal and reality to a bottom, base product to trade, or toss into the landfill of human waste.

In petition to command the attention and support of those that may have forgotten the intrinsic value in the infinite growth, far reaching worldly (but not mundane) benefits to the advancement of knowledge while exorcising ignorance, then brings the enlightening realization of genuine humility, the empathy inherently necessary to comprehend the continuous, constant, and complete merge into singular unity as an ultimate marriage of the paternal and maternal life force's guidance enveloping the universe, the globe, and its creatures dynamically interconnected in unison to promote harmonious life on Planet Earth. These meager words attempting to humbly describe the absolute pure manifestation of the all but forgotten notion of honest QUALITY as an intrinsic VALUE for human beings, Earth Citizens to aim for on as many levels as our feeble minds' mentalities might strive to achieve hints, even glimpses of awareness of in their state of uninformed, inexperience as guests within the vastly infinite setting, of the host given many linguistic terms which have served to misrepresent and misguide the understanding of the human condition. There is a similar, simultaneous, separation and connection illustrated by the changing seasons, by the members of a family or a tribe, and most importantly Earth Citizens' civilization, all terrestrial creatures, Planet Earth, the Universe & the infinite Cosmos, and the inkling of understanding, a comprehensive notion, of a common, whole, singularity that is the sum total equivalent of VALUE & QUALITY, and of LIFE & LOVE.

Professors, Teachers, Tutors, Educators, Education Assistants, all serve the ultimate purpose as willing contributors, sacrificial volunteers, forging the path to a much needed and long overdo "NEW ENLIGHTENMENT", constantly battling for course correction. In my heart the noble Teachers are aware of the tyrannical tendencies of the empire rulers to perpetuate the repetition of deliberate historical patterns failures and stubbornly refuse to accept the supposed inevitability of static stagnation. These are the revolutionaries of the post modern era, non conforming in the face of the false progress, and phony prosperity of fundamentalist free market fetishism and the deification of ever emerging markets. Our Dynamic Educators deserve gratitude, praise, and encouraging support in the battle against disinformation, the inversion of Truth, "Junk Science", and the "corporate branding" deceptively distorting the march toward dismantling what has been a great American tradition in the establishment of the Public School Systems across our nation in favor of privatization of education. As members of our communities, our nation, our planet, I implore readers of this blog to stand strong in solidarity, support, protect, and not only defend our Public Educational Institutions from K-12, Community Colleges, and Universities but fight budget cuts funding education; demand INCREASED FUNDING annually that could very easily be drawn from military spending, and a myriad of corporate and multinational corporations' subsidies to the private sector while the public sector endures a constant attack and continuous, detrimental, damaging, dismantling of its core structure and its Democratic functions. The Utter, Absolute Importance, Dire Necessity, Pivotal, Crucial Role for the GENUINE PROGRESSION & SURVIVAL of MODERN CIVILIZATION depends upon the QUALITY, the VALUE, and the ACCESSIBILITY of the INVESTMENT in HUMAN CAPITAL provided through education, educators, and our educational institutions.

Brain scans predict children's reading ability

ScienceDaily (Oct. 10, 2012) ? If a 7-year-old is breezing through the "Harry Potter" books, studies indicate that he or she will be a strong reader later in life. Conversely, if a 7-year-old is struggling with "The Cat in the Hat," that child will most likely struggle with reading going forward.

The study findings could eventually influence reading lessons for pre-elementary children, tailoring lesson plans to individual needs.

New research from Stanford shows that brain scans can identify the neural differences between these two children, and could one day lead to an early warning system for struggling students.

The researchers scanned the brain anatomy of 39 children once a year for three consecutive years. The students then took standardized tests to gauge their cognitive, language and reading skills.

In each case, the rate of development (measured by fractional anisotropy, or FA) in the white matter regions of the brain, which are associated with reading, accurately predicted their test scores.

Specifically, children with above-average reading skills exhibit an FA value in two types of nerve bundles -- the left hemisphere arcuate fasciculus and the left hemisphere inferior longitudinal fasciculus -- that is initially low, but increases over time. Children with lower reading skills initially have a high FA, but it declines over time.

The findings could eventually influence reading lessons for pre-elementary children. Previous studies have shown that a child's reading skills at age 7 can accurately predict reading skills 10 years down the road. A child who is struggling at 7 will most likely be a poor reader at age 17.

"By the time kids reach elementary school, we're not great at finding ways of helping them catch up," said Jason D. Yeatman, a doctoral candidate in psychology at Stanford and the lead author on the study.

The good news: Early screening could reveal which students are at risk; at an early age, the brain is plastic, and genes, environment and experiences can affect FA values.

"Once we have an accurate model relating the maturation of the brain's reading circuitry to children's acquisition of reading skills, and once we understand which factors are beneficial, I really think it will be possible to develop early intervention protocols for children who are poor readers, and tailor individualized lesson plans to emphasize good development," Yeatman said. "Over the next five to 10 years, that's what we're really hoping to do."

The research was published in the current issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
