I haven't posted in so long, but life! I wanted to share the above feedback I got from a follower a while ago... feedback like this pushes to me pursue my goals.

Iodine

I remember years ago when I first started working as a nutritional health coach, a lady randomly told me that I am smart, but if I want really intelligent babies to make sure I supplement with iodine before conception,while I am pregnant and when I am breastfeeding.  This sparked my curiosity and research about iodine. 

Just say NO to agave

Maple flavored Agave ...what?!

Seasonal Wellness Helpers!

When it comes to supporting your immune system during the cold season (and beyond) there are so many options to choose from. Here are a few of my favorite (tried and tested) wellness season remedies. What I like about herbs, supplements/'nutraceuticals' is that they often help your body to heal itself, rather than just masking the symptoms--the way a lot of over the counter medicines do. 

As always remember supplements are not a replacement for proper diet (easy on the sugar), fresh air, staying active, reducing stress, and adequate sleep. :) 

Bone Broth

Today I am sharing how I made Turkey Bone Broth and sharing my snaps from the evening I made it. This is a very informal 'recipe' so no measurements (sorry!). Bone broth is great for clearing out your fridge/freezer and experimenting with veggies and spices. Just eyeball it!

Top 3 Supplements Everyone Should Take!

Everyday essentials: phone, keys, caffeinated drink, keys, sunglasses and VITAMINS! 

Disclaimer: I understand the arguments against supplements and I am not saying you can't be healthy without them. If you feel strongly against supplements I get it :) -I feel they have their place and can be very beneficial to our overall health. ESPECIALLY, when battling any ailment or symptom. I've seen it work. As with anything the quality of the supplements, how you take them and how often all factor in and are very important. Also supplements do not replace healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle :). You don't even have to take them daily many people take them every other day or don't take them on weekends--especially people who still want to take them, but feel they might be overworking their liver.  The brands of vitamins I recommend are vitamins that I like the quality, I have used myself, have been recommended by holistic practitioners, or I have received good feedback from clients. There are many good products in addition to these, just make sure to look at the label! 

Also before starting any supplements please check with your Doctor or nutrition professional/RD

Many people don’t believe in taking vitamins and supplements, but I believe that there comes a time when supplements are important. Because of our lifestyles & diets—supplements can help to maintain vibrant optimal help. Prevention is key; it is better to prevent any issue that can arrive from not having sufficient minerals/vitamins, than having to use mega doses to fix issues later. Today I discuss three supplements that I feel everybody should consider taking. There are three more vitamins in addition to these I suggest, but that will be a blog post for another day :)
