HEALTH: FREE Balancing Hormones Naturally Lecture at Detroit areaThe Better Health Stores 11/4 - 11/6

Find out how balancing your hormones can help you...

Roslyn Rogers is a certified Nutritional Consultant and Board Certified Integrative Medicine and has more than 25 years of experience in the teachings of vitamins and herbs.

She will be speaking at three The Better Health Stores locations across SE Michigan and Lansing in the upcoming week about balancing hormones naturally.

The events are free and open to the public. 

Roslyn will explore how balancing hormones can help, including offering natural alternatives to hormone replacement therapy, exploring how to have healthy bones throughout your life, what nutrients can help nourish your skin to bring out a youthful glow and what you can eat to either zap or pump you with energy.

Those suffering from conditions like Arthritis, Loss of Focus, PMS, Weight gain around the waist, Skin Conditions, sleep problems and those seeking anti-aging strategies and more can benefit from this event.

In Roslyn’s words - "We are facing breast cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes, and arthritis epidemics in this country. Unlike years ago, these diseases are not just targeting the elderly. The key to why younger and younger women are being affected is because of this industrialized world that we live in. Staying healthy, active, and vital has everything to do with balancing hormones whether you are 16 or 100 years old! How can we turn back the clock? By balancing hormones we can restore energy, manage body weight, maintain youthful skin, and stop bone loss."

Buddy's Pizza celebrates 68 years with FREE Customer Appreciation Discount Cards starting 6/23

Buddy’s Pizza turns 68, announces 11th location in Novi and Customer Appreciation Discount Cards...

This year, Buddy’s Pizza will celebrate 68 years of serving up Detroit’s original square Sicilian-style pizza, by bringing its Motor City classic to even more families and pizza fans. The restaurant that established Buddy’s Pizza Day in Detroit on June 23 has officially announced a brand new location is coming to Novi.

An 11th Buddy’s Pizza restaurant will open at Fountain Walk in Novi early this fall. Located on the north end of Twelve Mile Crossing in Fountain Walk, the newest addition to the Buddy’s family will be its largest location to date. The full-service restaurant will include indoor and outdoor seating for more than 200 people and provide ample parking as well as easy accessibility for guests, as it is situated near freeways M-5, I-275, I-696 and I-96.

“With the addition of our new Novi location, we’ll expand Buddy’s Pizza into Northwestern Wayne and Southwestern Oakland counties, making Detroit’s original square pizza more accessible to the fans that’ve made the brand a favorite across the region and the country,” said Robert Jacobs, Buddy’s Pizza president.

Designed by Northville-based Martone Design Studio, the new Novi location will feature an urban, retro-styled interior and exterior, including a main lobby, outdoor dining area, main bar, dining room, banquet room, carry out room, modern restrooms and kitchen.

The 8,000 square feet restaurant will carry on Buddy’s Pizza’s legacy with strong undertones of automotive design and Detroit’s industrial history. The grand opening for Buddy’s Pizza in Novi is pending early fall.

Buddy’s Pizza staff and management have long made it a tradition to recognize those have contributed to the restaurants’ success over the decades across metro Detroit, the guests they consider family.

Beginning Buddy’s Pizza Day on Monday, June 23, all Buddy’s Pizza locations will offer 2014 customer appreciation cards.

Once per month through the end of the year, cardholders will be able to purchase an 8-square cheese pizza for $6.80 and add extra toppings for 68 cents each – a nod to the restaurant’s 68 years of business in Detroit. 

Appreciation cards will be available at all 10 Buddy’s Pizza locations through June 30, or while supplies last. No purchase is necessary.

Piada Italian Street Food opens 3/21 in Shelby Township with FREE Piada for a Year to 1st 100 in Line

Come to the Piada Italian Street Food grand opening celebration in Shelby Township March 21st... 

1st 100 people in line at grand opening win FREE food for 1 year!

On the heals of their amazing Michigan debut in the city of Troy, a new, healthy, made-to-order food concept is opening their second location in Michigan.

Piada Italian Street Food, the fast casual creation of restaurateur Chris Doody that has attracted nationwide attention with its fresh, healthy, high-quality Italian fare and made-to-order delivery system, is opening in Shelby Township, MI. The restaurant is located at 15089 Hall Road, Shelby Township. (Click here to read my review of the Piada Troy Grand Opening.)

To celebrate, the first 100 people in line for the Friday, March 21st grand opening will win FREE Piada for one year. Participants must be present to win. Full rules will be available soon on: http://www.mypiada.com

A long-standing passion for Italian food led Doody to the streets of Italy and back to create a one-of-a-kind Italian eatery that appeals to a broad range of time-challenged, budget-weary, and health-conscious consumers. Piada has eighteen restaurants open located in Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. Piada was recently announced one of the “Hot Concepts” in Nation’s Restaurant News and “One to Watch” by QSR Magazine.

“We feel that despite their hectic lifestyles, our guests shouldn’t have to sacrifice freshness, quality and ambiance for speed or value,” says Doody, co-founder of the Bravo and Brio restaurant chains. The ordering process is convenient for the typical busy customer and takes just 60 seconds. The average customer check is less than $9, making Piada the ideal inexpensive and quick meal.

The restaurant will feature a blend of white subway tiles, Carrara marble, brushed aluminum, and painted brick with warm, custom hewn-wood furniture and stained concrete floors, the restaurants’ sophisticated, contemporary European design is a dramatic departure from the typical old-world Italian décor.

Guests choose from three entrées -- the Piada, a stone-grilled, thin-crusted dough made from organic flour and extra virgin olive oil; a chopped salad; or a pasta bowl. They customize their entrées with a variety of grilled items ranging from steak and Italian sausage to salmon; sauces such as Pomodoro, Alfredo and pesto; a selection of sautéed and fresh vegetables; as well as salad toppings such as cheese and pancetta.

Popular street sides include Parmigiano Reggiano, pepperoni and artichoke Piada sticks with dipping sauce; calamari; and lobster bisque and tomato basil soup. Beverages include Italian sodas, teas, soft drinks and bottled water.

The restaurant, a popular spot for both lunch and dinner, attracts a broad range of Guests, from the food savvy Gen X and Millennial to families with young children, baby boomers and business people. The restaurant will be open from 10:45 am to 10 pm, seven days a week.

FREE Vision Care for Low-Income Family 5/8 By Appointment

Local Optometrists Provide FREE Vision Care For Low-Income Families on Saturday May 8th

Local optometrists with the Michigan Optometric Association (MOA) will provide no-cost eye and vision care to area low income residents during Volunteers In Service In Our Nation (VISION USA) Day on Saturday, May 8, 2010.

VISION USA is a program that provides basic eye health and vision services free of charge to low-income, uninsured individuals and their families. The program is provided by participating MOA member optometrists who donate their services.

The no-cost VISION USA Day exams will take place at the following offices in southeast Michigan:

Family Eye Care Associates of Clinton Township: 42550 Garfield Rd. Clinton Township, Mich. 48038. Call (586) 263-9708 to schedule an appointment.

Family Eye Care Associates of Eastpointe: 21701 Kelly Rd., Eastpointe, Mich. 48021. Call (586) 779-4200 to schedule an appointment.

Marston Optometry PC of Livonia: 32037 Plymouth Rd, Livonia, Mich. 48150. Call (734) 421-5454 to schedule an appointment.

Appointments and pre-qualification are required to receive the exam. Individuals may obtain an application online at www.aoa.org/visionusa.xml.

To be eligible for a VISION USA eye exam, residents must meet the following criteria:
1. Have no vision insurance (this may include Medicare/Medicaid)
2. Have income below an established level based on household size
3. Not have had an eye exam within two years
4. Have a job or live in a house where there is one working member

“We know that area residents have been hit especially hard by the economic downturn,” said event organizer and MOA member, Michael Wallace, O.D. We hope that providing free vision care and eyeglasses can help individuals as they look for new jobs, provide for their families and weather this difficult time.”
