by Lorna Vanderhaeghe | Dec 4, 2018 | What Grandma Has to Say
A normal menstrual cycle occurs every 28 days plus or minus 7 days (21–35 days). The duration of flow should be between 2–7 days with a volume loss of less than 80 ml—or less than 5 tablespoons. Menorrhagia is menstrual bleeding that lasts more than 7 days and...

This Healthy Mom is at Quebec City, Quebec.

The last show of busy season had us in Quebec City for the Canadian Paediatric Society / Société canadienne de pédiatrie Annual Conference 2025![]()
It was a busy two days of exhibiting filled with many conversations with pediatricians and other health practitioners about @kidstarnutrients, @biofeiron, and @moducare.canada showcasing that not all iron is the same, and yes, it CAN taste good (dare I say, the best!)![]()
We are so lucky to have great partners who support our products behind-the-scenes and in the field (especially with their language expertise!). A special thank you to Charly for standing in the booth with me for 12 hours and being my real-life Google Translator!![]()
As it was my first time visiting Quebec City, of course I had to find the nearest waterfall to chase! I’d highly recommend Parc Montmorency, just don’t forget your rain coat 💧 The stair count, up and down, was 974 stairs, just in case you were wondering… (they also have a tram 😆)![]()

I was introduced to @ninaobrecht and the unique @riciniol line when I was judging CHFA’s Launch Pad in Toronto last year (@cahealthfood ). After sampling Riciniol and hearing Nina speak on the benefits of the patented bio-advanced castor oil, I knew these products would quickly become part of my day-to-day routine.
About Nina & Riciniol:
Nina is an entrepreneur based in Toronto. She began her journey as a designer running a small freelance studio. In 2012 her first child was born. She decided then, that by 40 years old, she would transition to a product-based business. Build something bigger than herself. Teach her kids to follow their dreams. On May 30, 2020 – Riciniol launched. In starting this business, Nina wanted to share the magic of Riciniol with other mothers.
Mothers who take proactive control of the health and well being of their families.
Mothers who want to avoid toxic filled “solutions”.
Riciniol was first created in 1983 by a molecular biologist, Olga Martsinkevich. Her baby suffered from very sensitive skin, rashes, and hives. ![]()
Olga’s devotion to help her child led to the creation of Riciniol – a bio-advanced variant of traditional Castor Oil. Riciniol now has a line of patented formulations to treat specific skin concerns.![]()
This “magic potion” is essential in Nina’s home. ![]()
She uses Riciniol daily for everything from the common cold to dry skin, eczema, burns, and bug bites. ![]()
It’s food grade, harmless, and very effective.
Kids love it because it never stings.
Mothers love it because it works.
