About the Blogger
I'm not a doctor, nor do I have a nutritional degree. This information has been collected for educational purposes only, in order to allow YOU to make the best decisions for your health.
What can I offer you?
1. Experience.
In the Welcome post, you can read about my journey with health issues in both myself and my husband. Eating real food played a significant role in our healing.
2. A thirst for knowledge.
I read. And read. And read. I read books that support the opinion I hold, and those that don't, to either strengthen my viewpoint, or dissuade me. Because I'm so hungry (pun intended) for a deeper understanding about how to properly care for our bodies, and maximize life, I naturally spend a good deal of my spare time researching.
3. Organization.
Simply, I'm able to do some of the dirty work for you. (Though my whole goal is for you to want to do some for yourself!!) This site is designed to demystify some of the nutritional advice out there, and help you understand why we believe what we believe, and how that affects us. I think I've been able to present this information in a consistent, orderly way.
4. I Question.
Despite the fact that my favorite food group has always been "chocolate", I grew up eating 6-11 servings of grain, obediently using margarine instead of butter, limiting my egg intake, always choosing "low-fat" versions, and didn't feel bad about the fact that I seldom ate meat...but what if the food pyramid is wrong? What if our bodies are craving a different way of eating - one that was followed for centuries until the industrialization of food threw us for a loop? What if we don't really need drugs to fix our [depression, anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome, lactose intolerance, diabetes, high cholesterol...], but rather a new way of eating that turns the recommended daily allowances on their head? What if your body gave you the permission to take some drastic steps? Would you do it? I did.
Welcome to the New Year, New Body challenge.
This has been a labor of love, and I enjoy every minute of it. Naturally, it does take a good deal of time though. You are in no way obligated to give, but if you have been blessed by this information, and want to make a small donation, or if I've made you some food and you need to pay me, please click below!
