If you’ve ever wondered “How much sugar is too much sugar?“, you’re in for a treat! Before I can break that down for you, you have to know how to figure out the amount of sugar in your food. That’s the most complicated part of this process. You’ve probably noticed that all of the nutrition…
I know you have good intentions, but we need to talk… You’re trying so hard to be healthy this holiday season… doing your best to make better choices and eat less junk even though you’re addicted to sugar. With the hopes that after the holidays, you’ll simply start fresh. But I know you have your…
One common thread for clients with hormone issues is post birth control syndrome that can rear it’s ugly head years later. Wait… did you just say post birth control syndrome? What the heck is that?!?! It’s a very real issue that results from being currently on or having taken birth control pills (BCPs) — even…
In my opinion, the term “detoxing” is thrown around way too much. (Especially liver detox!) It seems like every other product released into the marketplace is detoxing something. Your skin… Your gut… Your liver… Your blood… Your lymphatic system… The list goes on and on. But one thing has become quite clear to me →…
Apparently everyone who’s chronically tired has adrenal fatigue. It’s pretty easy to self-diagnose it thanks to the nearly three million search results for the term on Google. While I certainly believe in adrenal fatigue (and even had it myself back in 2009), most of my clients who swear they have this issue end up with…
Do food sensitivities make you sick? It’s certainly possible. There’s a lot of controversy around food sensitivities and if they’re even real! If you want to know more about what they are (and what they aren’t), I have a great post you can read (HERE). The reason I bring this topic up today is that…
Let’s talk about how to make a protein shake at home! I love protein shakes. Every morning, I indulge and start my day with a protein shake that is both delicious and packed full of amazing nutrition. But not everyone enjoys starting their day with the same thing in the morning. I often get asked…
Everyone’s stressed out. And I’m willing to bet good money that until now, you’ve probably managed to muscle your way through it. You put on a strong, brave face, right? I get it… I’ve got plenty of clients who do that daily. Heck, I’ve used that method myself for many years in the past. But…
Your inner critic can be the most deadly opponent you face. Day in and day out, it’s willing to go to awful lengths to keep you small, feeling trapped, and never making any changes no matter how necessary. And for that very reason, today’s podcast is one of the most personal I’ve ever recorded. If…
I never wondered how long does it take to get better when I figured realized I was sick. Back in 2007, I felt like I was an elderly person. I didn’t feel like myself and knew inside that something was very wrong. Doctors told me that I was fine. Maybe I needed some B vitamins…
My advice on how to make New Years resolutions is unconventional. Simply put — don’t make any. I’m not advocating for you to do nothing. Instead, I think there’s something much more powerful that will actually get the job done. Allow me a moment to explain… Many years ago, I was living in a tiny…
I expected my very first holiday being gluten free to be a total bust. At the time, I didn’t have any strategies or gluten free holiday tips to rely on. Instead, I expected to hit a bunch of “speed bumps” pretty hard. Yes, I was embarrassed by a relative who mocked my diet change. No, I totally failed…
There’s an interesting overlap to MTHFR, Methylation, and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. One that should not be overlooked or ignored. Methylation and Hashimoto’s are two big topics on their own, but I wanted to know if some sort of connection exists. If so, then hypothyroid suffers should know because methylation challenges should really be addressed as part…
If you’ve ever asked your doctor if your diet could help you feel better only to be told no, keep reading. Today’s podcast is about the truly inspiring and remarkable journey of Linda. She decided to give functional nutrition a try after spending 35+ years going to doctors to figure out how she could get…
I wouldn’t be surprised that if your thyroid is out of whack, you’ve likely searched for solutions for Hashimoto’s online. Many people do because you may have more options available to you than what your conventional doctor offers. While I admit that thyroid care is in a terrible state, there is hopeful research in the works.…
Have you ever waited months (or years) for an appointment with a doctor only to end up blanking at your chance to tell your health story? It happens all of the time. Even though you know what you’ve been through, it can feel like a real uphill battle to organize your health journey in a…
No, you aren’t crazy. It is absolutely possible to reverse autoimmune disease with diet changes. Before you think you’ve found your silver bullet, know that taking the dietary and lifestyle change route is a long game. It’s certainly possible to feel improvements within days, but it doesn’t mean that your thyroid will kick back into…
Fibromyalgia is a debilitating, chronic illness. It steals the joy from your life and prevents you from caring for your family and home the way you’d like. Heck, chronic fibromyalgia even make it a total struggle to make it to and through work. I know some people who’ve ended up leaving their job and wish there was a way…
You’ve likely heard (or at least you will right now) that everything in your body is connected. One huge piece of this is the thyroid connection to feeling well. But too often women (and even some wonderful men) are blown off or brushed aside even though they have symptoms of thyroid dysfunction. Maybe you’ve heard…
Do you know how to talk to your doctor (or practitioner) so that they have enough information to be able to help you? Of maybe the better question is… have you ever lied to your doctor? It might be a little white lie (“no, I don’t take any supplements” when you actually do) or a…
