Simplifying nutrition and using food as medicine - one bite at a time.

My goal with this blog is to set folks straight about what good nutrition really is! Starting by discarding the info we get every day from 'sponsors' that do not really have our best interests at heart, I want to inspire you to eat better AND realize it is much easier than you thought it would be!

Just about any health issues can be addressed with nutrition (and meditation), from mild to chronic to acute. We truly have the ability to heal ourselves physically, mentally and spiritually...

And you can use your daily routine as your vehicle to drive that change :)

"When food, in the minds of eaters, is no longer associated with farming and with the land, then the eaters are suffering a kind of cultural amnesia that is misleading and dangerous"

Queen of Green

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by Lindsay Coulter, David Suzuki's Queen of Green.  Her blog is really informative and provides useful information for anyone trying to improve their choices and live a more sustainable lifestyle, including making better food choices.

We spoke about how to eat and get the health benefits from eating sustainable fish.  I'm providing the link if you care to read more about this fishy topic

Be well and stay tuned for more...

Shopper's Guide to Healthier Choices

Hey Folks!
I thought I'd post some brief but imperative links, one of which is a list of what foods consumers ought to make sure they buy organic (or risk ingesting some seriously sketchy residues).
It's the work of Environmental Working Group. They independently research everything from food to sunscreen and are an authority on which is best for us and the environment. They provide detailed info on which items that are healthiest to: put in your mouth, put on your body or use to clean your house.

It's a link everyone should  have at their fingertips so I'm sharing it with you...so get your fingertips warmed for this hot tidbit...and consider printing the handy little PDF and give it to your favourite people.

Be well!

Hello? Happy New Year...

Hello?  Are you there?  I want to hear from you!

I know I haven't posted for a while.  I want to reinvent my blog and am now in the planning stage. I may just turn it into a full website. I have 20 sensational members (and many lurkers) and I want to hear from you!

Would you take a moment and tell me what you'd like to see on my blog?
(ie: more recipes, more/less rants, more links, more quotes, full articles, more pages...anything that comes to mind)

I would really appreciate it.

Thank you!
