Celebrity Chef Melissa d'Arabian and Birds Eye(R) Vegetables Step Up To The Plate to Find New Ways to Get Picky Eaters Eating Healthier
Birds Eye(R) frozen vegetables today announces a partnership with celebrity chef Melissa d'Arabian to make a difference and help parents dealing with picky eaters by showing how to get kids to eat more veggies. The two have created delicious, quick, veggie-filled recipes using Birds Eye's Recipe Ready line, which includes blends of pre-chopped, sliced and diced vegetables that make mealtime easier for families by cutting down the prep time. And, the ever budget-conscious cook has found a kindred spirit in Birds Eye's affordable, high-quality veggies.
As a New York Times best-selling author, host of FoodNetwork.com's The Picky Eaters Project, and mother of four, Melissa is a trusted, go-to resource for home cooks everywhere. Using Birds Eye's extensive product line, Melissa shares tips and strategies to get even the pickiest eaters to enjoy their veggies.
"I'm proud to partner with Birds Eye, the expert in frozen vegetables," said Melissa d'Arabian. "Birds Eye products are a great way to get more veggies on the table, as they are not only convenient, nutritious, and available year-round at affordable prices, but also delicious!"
Birds Eye's Step Up To The Plate campaign is addressing the reality that America is in a veggie rut, as 9 out of 10 people do not eat enough vegetables. As the leader in the frozen vegetables category, Birds Eye is in a unique position to move the needle on vegetable consumption in the country.
"We're thrilled to have Melissa d'Arabian Step Up To The Plate with Birds Eye vegetables," said Mike Barkley, senior vice president of marketing for Birds Eye. "Her success with picky eaters, coupled with her passion for healthy living, makes her the perfect partner in our quest to help parents incorporate more vegetables into meals and show kids how delicious they can be."
Melissa and Birds Eye vegetables combined their expertise in helping parents with picky eaters to develop the following tips:
- Fresh or frozen, it's important to incorporate veggies in every meal.
- "9 out of 10 people don't get the proper amount of vegetables on a daily basis, so it's becoming increasingly imperative to include veggies with every meal," said Melissa. "From a nutrition standpoint, there is little to no difference between fresh and frozen vegetables. For example, at Birds Eye, they flash freeze their veggies within four hours after harvest, locking in peak freshness, nutrients, taste, and color. That's why I always keep a variety of frozen Birds Eye vegetables in my freezer. They're quick, delicious, and a great ally in getting a nutritious dinner on the table on even the busiest of nights."
- You can get picky eaters more interested in dinner by involving them in the meal preparation.
- "I have some picky eaters myself, and I find that they get more excited about dinner when I engage them by including them in the meal prep," stated Melissa. "Even something as simple as picking out which Birds Eye vegetable we're going to eat that night can get my kids more interested in dinner!"
- Keep your family interested by mixing up the veggie and flavor profiles.
- "It's no secret that people get bored by the same type of meal or flavor, so change up the veggies you serve and the flavor profile with which you serve them," remarked d'Arabian. "Luckily, Birds Eye provides families with more than 40 unique vegetable varieties year round at affordable prices, so you can mix up your meal ideas all year!"
- Introduce new foods slowly, pairing them on the table with familiar foods.
- "We all know how hard it is to get kids to eat new foods, so be sure to introduce new foods and tastes slowly – developing healthy eating habits is more a marathon than a sprint," acknowledged Melissa. "Don't overwhelm kids with a dinner full of all-new foods. Serve new dishes alongside family favorites. Serve your family's favorite dips, salsa or hummus with veggies to get them more willing to expand their palate."
- Look for alternative vegetable occasions, including breakfast.
- Melissa exclaimed, "Veggies aren't just for dinner! Another option for parents to help ensure their kids get the proper amount of vegetables is by combining Birds Eye frozen fruit and veggies to create fantastic smoothies. These are great for those mornings when you're on the run, kicking off your day with delicious servings of fruit and vegetables!"
All of Melissa's recipes with Birds Eye veggies illustrate how to put these tips into action. Check out www.BirdsEye.com or like Birds Eye's Facebook page to see her original Birds Eye recipes!

Art of Engagement: Being open to learning while under fire/
by Lee Nellis, FAICP, Great Falls, Montana
Happy New Year! This is my first column since becoming the Deputy Director of Planning and Community Development for the City of Great Falls, Montana in October 2013. My new email address is: email@example.com.
Principles of Public Engagement #4
The Western Planner's Agenda 21 issue offered great advice for keeping one's cool and carrying on in the face of inflammatory rhetoric. I want to build on that theme by continuing my discussion of the seven principles for public engagement set forth by the National Coalition for Dialogue and Deliberation (NCDD). You can find the principles at http://ncdd.org/rc/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/pep_graphic2.pdf.
I've addressed the first three in previous columns. The fourth is:
Openness and Learning – Help all involved listen to each other, explore new ideas unconstrained by predetermined outcomes, learn and apply information in ways that generate new options, and rigorously evaluate public engagement activities for effectiveness.
The broadest of the NCDD principles covers both the process and its evaluation. It may also be the most idealistic. We work hard just to achieve respectful listening. Can we really hope that people will learn, that they will veer from the comfortable path of "predetermined outcomes" and that new options will arise from the conversation?
Learning from a parking ticket
I think we can design opportunities for mutual learning into major public engagement campaigns. However, most of our interactions with the public are routine. What kind of learning can we expect to happen at a hearing on, say, a simple three-lot subdivision? Some, I think, if we can approach each interaction as both a teacher and a student.
Two weeks ago, I learned something in a conversation with someone who was mad – really mad – about a parking ticket. One of my duties in Great Falls is managing the city's parking system, a new twist for me and one that involves a lot of unhappy customers (I have not, however, heard that parking meters are a UN plot). This person showed me how I could make one of the parking enforcement forms we use better. So, I did.
Trivial? Maybe, but it makes a point. I learned something helpful (and acted on what I learned which we'll get to with the sixth principle), because I was open to learning, even under fire. So, my question for all you readers is: How do we evoke curiosity in our constituents? How do we get them asking questions instead of making pronouncements? How do we simulate a continuing community conversation? I will share some thoughts next time, but would love to hear your ideas
What to Read? I will say that I think part of the answer lies in the oldest form of human instruction: story-telling. I recommended Annette Simmon's The Story Factor in a column nearly three years ago. Her recent book, Whoever Tells the Best Story Wins, is even better.
Lee Nellis, FAICP, is a pioneer of planning in the rural West, starting his career in Wyoming's Big Horn Basin in 1974.

Agile competitors are, by definition, quick to seize opportunities. What they lack in size, they can make up for in responsiveness to owner/client needs, adapting to sudden changes in the marketplace and exploiting disruptive technology such as artificial intelligence. Add to that the willingness of leading owners/clients to listen to those with something novel to offer then you have the makings of a market for new services and products. It has happened before and it will happen again. Established service providers could easily lose ground to up-and-coming agile competitors – upstarts if you will. Those that doubt it need to ask themselves what is special about facilities management that it could, uniquely, buck a trend that has been seen across industrial sectors for the past few decades. This time, technology enhanced by artificial intelligence, will help to accelerate the changes.
A robot can replace this worker right now Look at Dyson and vacuum cleaners and what happened at Kodak – a company that co-invented digital photography. When you dominate a market and are so locked into a single business model – paper bags for vacuum cleaners and selling film, paper and developing fluids – it is easy to argue that there could be no other way. Besides, "we know what our customers need" was the retort of the behemoths. A customer who hears that is going to prove them wrong at the very first opportunity.
Labour-intensive services are one among easy targets for upstarts. If we look at the current situation, we have small armies of personnel busy cleaning, servicing and watching over facilities. It does not matter how the sourcing model works, it involves significant recurrent expenditure into the future for owners/clients based on labour-intensive operations that can be replaced by machines with intelligence. Owners/clients once focused on capital costs and cared little for operating costs; nowadays, whole-life costing is the norm with operational expenditure a big part of the equation and decision making. Where is the moral dilemma for owners/clients deciding to move from a labour-intensive to a machine-intensive workforce that never takes holidays or sick leave?
With both capital and operational expenditure under close scrutiny, owners/clients are going to think twice about any decision that volunteers them for unnecessary recurrent expenditure. Adding value through services enabled by artificial intelligence, without ramping up the head count, is an attractive proposition and one example of an opportunity to exploit. The living wage will put paid to competition based purely on lowest possible labour costs. Moreover, social responsibility will force owners/clients and service providers away from any practice that might cast them as exploitative. People can be exploited but not machines.
With so much pressure to cut operational costs, why should designers not be designing facilities that reduce to a minimum the need for services such as cleaning, leaving autonomous cleaning devices to mop up the rest? Well, they are. It is about technology, and artificial intelligence is a disruptive technology that is beginning to redefine the delivery and operation of facilities. Owners/clients and operators in Japan, China and the US are busy creating new markets for devices embedded with artificial intelligence that can perform an increasing range of tasks – watching, inspecting, cleaning, maintaining and delivering services – in a controlled environment that is itself embedded with artificial intelligence.
New designs for facilities with built-in self-servicing are an attractive proposition and will become commonplace because artificial intelligence enables decisions to be taken more quickly and objectively, and so will the autonomous devices used to inspect, clean, maintain and watch over them. This is a powerful combination that major vendors without any history of facilities management will capture because they can offer total control over facilities for owners and operators. Some will become operators, encroaching on existing markets and squeezing out incumbents, for the simple reason that they can.
So where might this leave service providers, especially those with large workforces dispersed across numerous sites? In a word, vulnerable. Margins are slim now and will become wafer thin. Does it really look likely that owners/clients will be prepared to pay more to help out established service providers? There needs to be an alternative business model – one that utilizes technology to provide services that add value for owners/clients and which simultaneously create more realistic profit margins for service providers. Of course, there will be those who huff and puff and say they have heard all of this before. Good, let them press on with their own demise whilst the rest build more robust business models and replace them one by one. Who will be the first to go?
When the internet was first touted, some people and businesses went out of their way to pour scorn over any suggestion that it could possibly impact their business or much else for that matter. We know what happened – it continues to kill off the sloths in all sectors – but it has created new industrial sectors as well as reshaping those existing. The energy that went into playing modern-day Luddites could have gone into stealing a march on the competition. But that is one of the nice features and benefits of Darwinism, depending of course on where you stand.
Technology is all pervasive and will continue to shape and reshape our world. Artificial intelligence adds considerable weight to the influence of technology. Simply, some tasks do not need a human operator or minder. We should therefore try to understand how artificial intelligence can help in positive ways to improve what we do and what can be provided to others. To say that robots (including actroids) could never replace a cleaner or maintenance engineer and then to use that as the cornerstone of a business strategy is laughable. Cleaners and engineers are unlikely to disappear, but they will not be required to the same extent as now. The pressure on incumbents will come from two directions and will force the pace.
So, here we are – on the cusp of major structural change. Will you be with it or against it? Now, where I can get a new battery for my Nokia?

Owners and their managers need to pay as much attention to the definition and optimisation of their FM process as they do to their core business processes. Experience of current practice suggests the situation to be otherwise, with an underdeveloped appreciation of process-thinking leading to a reduction in the effectiveness and efficiency of FM service provision. The implications of these shortcomings are highlighted in a number of areas critical to success, namely stakeholders, outsourcing and performance measurement.
Growing interest in Big Data and advances in Cognitive Frameworks, Drones, Actroids and Robotics across many industries have led to the formation of the Artificial Intelligence in Facilities Management Group to explore ways in which Artificial Intelligence can benefit the Facilities Management and Real Estate sectors. The group will monitor closely the social and economic effects that the increased use of Artificial Intelligence will have on these sectors and their workforces.
A key activity of the group will be to identify the latest, most important developments in the field of Artificial Intelligence where it is felt there will be an impact – beneficial or not – and to bring them to the attention of the group's members.
Take part in the group's current survey to understand expectations and possibilities in the field. It takes just 5 minutes to complete. Go to the survey.
Contributions to the group via discussions are welcome from anyone involved in the Facilities Management and Real Estate sectors, as well as organizations and individuals that represent the Artificial Intelligence industry. You can find the group on LinkedIn.

Facilities management has received a major boost from the publication of a new standard for building information modelling (BIM). The work was sponsored by the Construction Industry Council (CIC) on behalf of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) Task Group with support from the UK government, and was undertaken by the British Standards Institution.
A new, major British Standard, Briefing for Design and Construction – Part 1: Code of practice for facilities management (Buildings infrastructure) was published on 3 August 2015 and is free to download thanks to the UK Government's support for the standard. BS 8536-1:2015 is a complete revision to the original 2010 standard, Facilities Management Briefing and is a direct response to the needs of industry and the UK government.
The original 2010 standard filled a gap in design briefing guidance occupied by little more than the mention of "facilities management". It alerted design teams to the need to take account of operational requirements during design and provided guidance on what should be considered. It also gave operators and facility managers the opportunity to feedback their experiences of assets/facilities in use. BS 8536 was an important step, but did not go far enough.
The scope of the standard needed to be broadened to take account of operational requirements during construction, testing and commissioning, handover, start-up of operations and aftercare. It also needed to incorporate the principles of soft landings, the requirements of post-occupancy evaluation (POE) and "Level 2 BIM". BS 8536-1 pulls together these and a number of other strands to create a coherent set of recommendations and supporting guidance for owners, operators, facility managers, designers, constructors and other specialists.
BS 8536-1 is an attempt to strengthen the link between asset/facility owners, operators and their facility managers and the design and construction team to assure performance of the design and the operational asset/ facility. It does not provide detailed guidance on design or construction, but is concerned with information and data about the operability and performance requirements for the new or refurbished asset/facility. Decommissioning and other end-of-life considerations are excluded from the standard.
The principle of buildability is widely applied in design, however, the principle of operability has not historically been considered to the same extent. Clearly, the best time to comment on the suitability or effectiveness of design is before it is finalised. Testing assumptions during design is necessary to understand how the asset/facility will perform in operation. In other industries, "design for operability" is a given; in this standard, the concept is extended to cover "design and construction for operability".
Projects should take account of the operational requirements and expected performance outcomes for the new or refurbished asset/facility from the outset, through all work stages – see Figure 1 – and into operation. Design and construction should be guided by these requirements and be followed by defined periods of aftercare (initial and extended) to ensure that the owner, operator and end-users are able to derive the expected benefits from the asset/facility.
Figure 1. Work stages
An evidence-based approach to design and construction should be adopted that is driven by outcomes that are explicit and measurable, wherever possible, and which reflect the requirements of the owner, operator, end-users and other key stakeholders in regard to the operational performance of the asset/facility. Indeed, performance outcomes should be verified in each work stage to ensure that the asset/facility will meet its operational requirements.
Performance outcomes/targets should be specific to the project and set at the Strategy work stage – see Figure 1 – and be verified during each subsequent work stage up to Operation & End of life, with post-occupancy evaluation (POE) during a defined period of extended aftercare. BS 8536-1 considers performance in terms of environmental, social (i.e. functionality and effectiveness), security and economic criteria that have to be satisfied.
Environmental targets – energy use, CO2 emissions, water consumption and waste reduction/disposal.
Social outcomes – functional and operational requirements of the owner, e.g. overall concept, context, uses, access, visual form, space, internal environment, durability and adaptability, and the operator's and end-users' requirements of utility, usability, safety, maintainability, security, inclusiveness and comfort.
Security targets – security-mindedness with respect to both physical and digital assets.
Economic targets – capital cost and operational cost should be considered side-by-side to enable whole-life cost to be determined.
Post-occupancy evaluation (POE) should be used to establish if the asset/facility is performing as expected, including measurement of actual operational performance against the required performance outcomes/targets from environmental, social and economic perspectives set at the outset of the project. Specifically, the evaluation should include an end-user satisfaction survey, an energy-use survey and an assessment of the overall performance of the asset/facility against the agreed outcomes and/or targets and applicable benchmarks.
BS 8536-1:2015 is available from the BSI Bookshop.
Design for operability is the new mantra. The concept of buildability – the impact of design on construction – has long been recognised in design circles. Operability has yet to achieve the same level of consciousness among designers. The arguments in favour of design briefing taking proper account of the requirements for safe and correct operation and use of a facility are overwhelming.
Facilities management owes much of its existence to building maintenance management, which continues to form a significant part of the workload of the FM sector. The publication of BS 8210:2012 Guide to facilities maintenance management provides guidance on how to achieve successful maintenance outcomes for a range of facilities. This new standard completely replaces the original 1986 standard on building maintenance management, which has now been withdrawn.
What happens when it is felt necessary to change service providers or the mode of service delivery? How can this be done without disrupting normal operations? A new British Standard – BS 8892:2014 Transition management of facility-related services: Code of practice – has been designed to deal with such situations.
Procurement is a key process within facilities management. The publication of a standard on procurement brings clarity and consistency to an area that has for long been neglected. Too often, decisions on the provision of services – security, waste management, cleaning, maintenance, even IT and catering – have been based on an incomplete understanding of the work involved. That can now be all in the past.
British Standards Institution (BSI) has published an FM Roadmap that shows key British (BS), European (EN) and international (ISO) standards and those in the pipeline to be published. The roadmap is a useful way of seeing at a glance both the breadth and depth of work that has been undertaken in standards' development.
The transparency, sharing of data and collaboration of supply chain partners afforded by building information modelling (BIM) means that there is a need for the supply chain to communicate in a security conscious way that still enables business to function, but also minimises the attractiveness of the information for those who might wish to undertake hostile reconnaissance.
PAS 1192-5:2015, Specification for security-minded building information modelling, digital built environments and smart asset management has been published to specify requirements for security-minded BIM, digital built environments and smart asset management. It outlines the cyber-security vulnerabilities to hostile attack to enable clients and contractors to achieve security-minded modelling. The standard provides a risk assessment process to determine the levels of security for BIM collaboration which should be applied during all phases of the lifecycle, i.e. concept, design, construction, operation and disposal.
You can download your copy of the standard from the BSI Bookshop.
Members will be no doubt be pleased to learn that the Society is recognised by British Standards Institution as a representative body in the facilities management field. As such, it is represented on BSI's FMW/1 Technical Committee for Facilities Management by Brian Atkin, Director of the Society.
Following on from three previous editions, Total Facility Management, expands and redefines the scope of facility management for practitioners and students alike.

LUSH TIMES: Congressional Republicans who claim they want to slash federal spending are like your Uncle Harry, the lush who always promises to stop drinking and pleads for forgiveness for his irresponsibility but goes off on a bender as soon as he gets a chance. Where was their fiscal prudence when they and President George W. Bush almost doubled the national debt? Yet now, when they don't control the Senate or the presidency, they say they have changed their ways and will follow the straight and narrow. Right, just like Uncle Harry promised to buy groceries with the $20 you lent him.
WALK THIS WAY: Lawmakers in Arkansas and New York have proposed legislation on cell phones and music players when people are walking and running on the street or sidewalk. The reason is basic: Distracted pedestrians are dangerous to themselves and others, as any number of videos on television and the Internet have shown. Don't worry about Pennsylvania's weak-kneed lawmakers following the lead of their counterparts in Arkansas and New York, though. They're so fearful of offending anyone - for instance, people driving cars and trucks while talking on cell phones, text messaging, etc., who are a threat to others on the road - that nothing will get done regarding walkers and runners.
ON TO DALLAS: After Sunday's heart-pounding defeat of the New York Jets in the AFC championship game, the Pittsburgh Steelers have two weeks to prepare for the Super Bowl game against the Green Bay Packers. It doesn't get any better than this - and what makes it even better is that the game will be played in the home stadium of the Dallas Cowboys. You know, the team that started the season talking about playing in the Super Bowl and couldn't even muster a winning record.

Edible Oil Refining Machine
1. Flowchart and main sections of edible oil refining machine
Main sections: Degumming and deacificationBleaching/ decolorizationDeodorizationWinterization 2. ApplicationThe batch type small edible oil refining machine is suitable for 1-30T oil refinery. The raw materials is soybean oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, rice bran oil, peanut oil, palm oil, rapeseed oil, canola oil, mustard oil and so on. The degumming and deacification, decolorization and deodorization sections must be used in the oil refinery processing. While the winterization section is used for small crude oil with high wax, such as sunflower oil, corn oil, rice bran oil and so on. 3. Working process1) Pumping crude oil into refining tank and heat with conduction oil. When the temperature reach about 70-80 degree, the alkali is added to move the acid. After one hour's processing and 4-6 hours deposit, then separate the degummed and deacidicated oil to the next step. 2) The oil enter decolorization tank. When it's up to 90-110 degree, the white clay is added into tank for 20 mins. Then the white clay and oil is separated by filtration.3) The bleached oil is transported to deodorization tank with vacuum pump. The steam will take out the odor in the oil. After filtering, the final refined oil is got.4. Advantages1) After refining, the impurity of oil must be less than 0.2%2) Recyling system will save power and money3) Low oil waste

Sunday's Message
May 28, 2017
This Memorial Day remember to pray for our service personnel and for those families who've lost loved ones in the service of our country.
This Sunday I'm closing out my sermon series on prayer. The sermon is, "Obey and Pray," from 1 John 3:18-24. The Beloved Disciple wrote, "Whatever we ask we receive of him because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight." Many times God is waiting for us to be obedient so that he can answer our prayers. Everything comes from God by grace, but he graciously decides to answer our prayers in such a way that he will reinforce good behavior, not bad. If I told my young child to obey and he refused, would I then give that child whatever he requested? No. I would demand obedience first so that he wouldn't lose respect for authority. Likewise, we sometimes don't get what we ask of God because we're being disobedient. Therefore, let's repent so that we can watch God miraculously answer our prayers!
By the way, this Saturday is another flyer distribution for Vacation Bible School at 10:00. Enjoy the beautiful weather with us as we spread the word in our community!
With love in Christ,
Dr. Jim Meek

See the fun they had last year. ►To Watch Click the Photo
Our Annual Fall Festival 2016 was a great success. Over all we had around 105 visitors and 50 volunteers helping with this event. We can say with confidence that everyone had a lot of fun playing games,winning prizes and enjoying the food.
This event wasn't only about having fun, we wanted to be a blessing to our community as well by giving away an assortment of clothing. We gave away so many clothes and even had lots of left overs which made it possible to donate them to the Union Gospel Mission's Clothes closet. Our prayer team also had the opportunity to talk and pray with some of our visitors.
We thank God for His provision and thank everyone for all the hard work which helped make this event possible! We are looking forward to next year when we can do this again
We need your help to make a great impact in our community through this year's event.
We are looking for helpers for Promotion, Games & Prizes, Clothes Closet, Prayer and Food. Contact Greg Horton for more information (415) 684-4549.

Dolly Trauma The Present is Dim
A review by Robert Brandt
Upon listening to the first three tracks of this album, one may find themself asking "When did Tool put out a new CD?"
The words, the music...yep, it's Tool.
This is never a bad thing, though, and this CD only gets better as it goes along. More on that later.
While listening to "Stitch," "Alastis," and "Placebo" (tracks 1-3, respectively), my faith in local music was restored, for a couple of reasons.
First off, the sound quality of this CD is superb, and it's not every day that you hear something this well-produced come out of this area. Secondly, if you are going to make three songs that sound like Tool, you'd better do it right, because sometimes they are a hard pill to swallow.
The songs are well-crafted, the playing is excellent, and the vocals stand out.
Then come the fourth and fifth tracks.
Let me just say that I have not heard anything like track 4 come out of my CD player since the last time I played early Tangerine Dream.
Clocking in at just over 28 minutes, this instrumental combines all things "noise rock" with every self-indulgent "prog rock" experiment of the last 30 years (see also: recent Sonic Youth EPs, Medicine's The Buried Life, Peter Hammill's Gog Magog and Tortoise.)
Then out of nowhere, we hear the melodic and acoustic track 5 (sorry, but tracks 4 and 5 were not listed, so I have no titles to write). I'm not sure if Radiohead was a factor or not here, but whatever it is, it's sure better than most acoustic drivel being played at your local open-mic nights in the coffee houses.
So, on a scale of 1-5, I'll give Dolly Trauma's The Present is Dim 4 metal signs for the metal aspects, 5 pairs of rounded spectacles for the experimental aspects, and 4 mocha slides for the all-too-brief acoustic work.
This is the best local CD that I've heard out of Cleveland in years. If Dolly Trauma could merge the three major sounds they demonstrate here, then we may have a great band on out hands.
Editor's Note: Both Dolly Trauma and the writer hail from the Cleveland (more specifically, Kent) area, and that is why he refers to them as a "local" band.

SottoPelle Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Restore hormone balance naturally, safely, and effectively with SottoPelle.
For over 30 years, SottoPelle has been providing a medically based methodology for Hormone Replacement Therapy for patients experiencing imbalance issues.
Comprised of the highest quality botanical ingredients, SottoPelle's Bio-identical Hormone Therapy (BHRT) is formulated to precisely match the hormones that naturally occur in the body, with no fillers or artificial ingredients. It balances hormone levels with a natural therapy made from botanicals and can allow you to feel like your former vibrant and energetic self, and say goodbye to all those unwanted symptoms such as:
- Brain fog and headaches
- Dry skin and hair loss
- Anxiety and depression
- Low sexual desire and vaginal dryness
- Increase body fat
- Fatigue and lower energy levels
SottoPelle Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy is a highly effective form of hormone replacement that focuses on balance, which is essential when regulating hormone levels. This treatment method is based on prescribing the right kind of hormones, biologically identical, while using the best delivery system — pellets.
Pellets provide safe and effective BHRT when properly administered and ensures steady, consistent, low dosages in the body as needed, like during stressful periods or exercise. The implants consist of low dose estradiol and testosterone that release slowly for 3 to 6 months, 24/7.
As a certified SottoPelle® Physician and hormone replacement specialist, Dr. Isam Balat, MD is the only provider of SottoPelle Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy in the Houston area.
Benefits of SottoPelle Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Right amount of hormones
As a delivery system, pellets are consistent and ongoing as the body requires it providing steady blood serum levels over time. The SottoPelle method delivers the right kind of hormones, in individualized amounts that are adjusted by our doctors as your bodies needs change. Factors such as worrying about taking a pill, a patch falling off, and the unreliability of creams are eliminated with pellets as they provide steady blood serum levels over time.
Simple and safe insertion
A relatively simple in-office procedure that can be done under local anesthesia, pellets are inserted subcutaneously through a very small incision. When the body needs it, a steady dose of hormone flows directly into the blood stream once a pellet is inserted. The body then has the control to release the hormone as it would when it is working normally.
Preserve and promote bone density
Our hormone levels shift dramatically with age and maintaining normal bone density becomes essential to good health. Bone strength can decrease due to fluctuating levels of estrogen, leading to an increase in the chance of fractures. Also, women who undergo premature surgical menopause will have a greater risk of developing osteoporosis. Pellets will help remedy and prevent these issues from developing into critical risks.
You do not have to just live with the symptoms of aging and menopause. Bio-identical hormone therapy has been studied and their safe usage has been documented for decades. Contact Plaza today to see if SottoPelle Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy is right for you.

Rodger Jourdain argued that his income as chairman of the tribal
council of the Red Lake Bank of Chippewa Indians was not
He cited the General Allotment Act of 1887 which exempted income
from allotted tribal land. He argued that the 1795 Treaty with
the Tribes of Indians of Greenville prohibited "molestation from
the United States," which taxing his income would be. He
contended that Constitutional references to "Indians not taxes"
in Article 1, Sec. 2, and Amendment 14, Sec. 2, similarly
prohibit the taxation of Indians. Finally, he noted that the
Internal Revenue Code does not apply to Indians because it
contains no express statement that Indians will be taxed.
The Appeals Court was impressed, but not enough to excuse him
from taxes. (No. 15)
