Cutting Down Cravings
Cravings, sigh. We all have them from time to time. I am finding as my life gets busier and I’m sleep less to fit it all in, I’m craving more things to make up for the lack of sleep.
Fixing Your Taste Buds
I remember when I thought I was being healthy for choosing sugar-free vanilla syrup in my coffee and having a lunch with Coke Zero. I was totally addicted to the sweetness.
It’s Not Your Fault
Beginning in the 70s when the cigarette companies finally had to be transparent and could no longer market Americans in the predatory way they had, they moved their business into Big Food.
Nature’s Antibiotic
Every time I went to the doctor in my 20s, I was sick with a virus or cold and wanted them to give me an antibiotic.
Talking Weight Loss
This little hack really works for me both for weight loss and gain. Your thoughts play a surprisingly big role in weight loss…
Swaps for the Kitchen
I have been working with people with the goal of losing weight for some time.
Fat Cells and Detox
Fat cells get a bad rap. The truth is our fat cells do more to protect our organs than anyone talks about in our diet culture.
Feeding Your Hormones Well
In the US, we are heavily marketed to daily, forgetting how much personal power we have over our own health and wellness. THAT IS BY DESIGN.
Protecting Your Hormones
Have you sat through the commercials on tv lately? Many of the products harm your hormones, and in between those ads, are ads to buy creams pills or injectables….
Sun, Summer and Your Skin (Part 2)
There exist a number of foods that increase your photo-sensitivity. We have all taken a medication at one time or another that made us more sensitive to sun exposure.
Sun, Summer and Your Skin
One thing I discovered on my health journey is that your diet affects how easily you get sunburned. Certain foods can reduce sun sensitivity and protect from UV damage.
Changing the Future of Food
I had heard about Hilary and School of Lunch… Seeing little kids in kindergarten drinking mugs of bone broth voluntarily blew my mind.
Tools for the Grocery Store
If you get grocery store anxiety over food additives and finding healthy choices, you are not alone. 93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy.
Too Much of a Good Thing
One of the main concerns with vitamins and supplements is the lack or regulation on ingredients. The industry has become or maybe to some degree, has always been a buyer beware industry.
Are You Afraid of Carbs?
Carbohydrates are vital for a balanced diet. These are macronutrients, necessary for a healthy body. Carbohydrates are the main fuel source of energy for muscles and the central nervous system.
You Need Calcium, Now What?
Just about every human living in the United States has been exposed to the mass marketing campaigns of the Dairy industry. “Milk, it does a body good”. Does milk really do a body good?
Protein=Vitality
Why is protein so Important? There are countless books, podcasts, articles and lectures on the importance of protein for movement.
Heart Health and Your Gut
Did you know your gut and heart affect each other? I was really surprised by the studies linking type 2 Diabetes and heart disease with an unhealthy population of gut bacteria.
