During the first half of December 2025, AVFCA brought awareness to specific observance days by sharing our original stories that matched these themes:
National Cookie Day : "Beyond the Recipe: How Your Cooking Tools Change Everything ”
In the comfort of your home, you have the ability to minimize or completely do away with exposure from toxic man-made chemicals. Take a look at your pots, pans, cutting boards, and cooking tools to see where you might implement change. Research shows if you opt for stainless steel, cast iron, glass, and wood materials, you’ll be reducing your exposure to harmful substances while also investing in durable, long-lasting kitchen tools that contribute to a safer and more sustainable cooking experience.

National Infrared Awareness Day : “Infrared’s Silent Embrace: The Light That Warms from Within”
Life on Earth depends on the sun, and as humans, we absorb vital nutrients from its rays. While most people know the sun helps us produce vitamin D, fewer realize the powerful health benefits of infrared light (IR). From supporting heart health and reducing pain to enhancing cognitive function, IR is gaining attention. Beyond sunlight, it can also be harnessed through infrared saunas, light panels, and other devices. [link removed] [[link removed]]
Our team also reads hundreds of articles each week, and those of interest are shared on our social media platforms. However, once or twice a week, our team reads an article that is profound or shares a perspective that is new or from an expert that AVFCA feels should be highlighted. These articles are shared on our Substack.
