Living Tree Community Foods raw, alive and organic raisins are sun-dried and grown in California. Larger, sweeter and richer in flavor than the Thompson variety, they resemble dried cherries. Flame raisins are seedless and start out as a red grape.
Raw and organic flame raisins are just the thing for school lunch boxes. Delicious baked into muffins, bagels, or scones; Flame Raisins are also great in trail mix or as a snack alone. Imagine mixing them with raw almond butter, cashew butter or tahini as a topping on desserts.

CPR - How to Save a Life

Dr. Joseph Mercola
Everyone is capable of learning how to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but according to the American Heart Association, 70% of people living in the U.S. feel helpless during an emergency.1 This is alarming as 70% of all cardiac arrests happen at home, meaning the person you save may be someone you love.
For the first time in 50 years, the American Heart Association released a snapshot of heart disease and stroke statistics that indicate those who are treated only by medical personnel after a heart attack at home, had a 10.6% survival rate, while those who received bystander CPR had a 31.4% survival.2
However, CPR is not only useful in the event of a heart attack. The concepts can be used to save a life following an accident or injury as well.
If bystander CPR is not performed, the survival rate drops by 7% every minute.3 If it takes 10 minutes for emergency personnel to attend to a cardiac arrest casualty, without bystander CPR, survival drops to 2%.4
There are several places in your community where you can learn and practice CPR. Call your local police or fire department, YMCA/YWCA or community recreation center. Each of these locations may know where CPR classes are held in your community.
