Do you ever wonder which fruits and veggies are ok to buy non-organic, and which ones aren't?

Because let's face it, we don't always want to shell out the big bucks for organics, but we don't want to expose ourselves to too many toxins, either. Amiright? So, how do we choose when to save and when to splurge?

Well, peeps, I've got you covered! Today, we’re going to explore exactly that topic.

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season, however and whatever you celebrate! ✨

To me, the very best part of this season is the solstice, when the daylight hours start getting longer once again. Hallelujah!

Can’t happen fast enough, IMO. Winter has officially barely begun and I’m ready for it to be over already. LOL. 🤣 How about you?

In the spirit of holiday celebrations, I wanted to share some good news with you!

Do you like eggnog? I sure do! It is creamy, rich, and satisfying, and loaded with delicious spices that warm you up from the inside during cold weather. To me, eggnog is the classic holiday drink. 

We typically think of eggnog as a very naughty holiday indulgence, being full of calories, especially fat, sugar and alcohol. But, perhaps surprisingly, eggnog can actually be quite good for you, when made low carb and with quality Paleo...

As part of my ongoing discussion about how to get through the holidays without doing undue damage to your health, let’s talk about wine!

Because drinking wine can be a festive and enjoyable part of the holiday season (if you have a healthy relationship with alcohol), and it can also have many health benefits (especially red wine), when consumed in moderation.

The weeks before and during the holiday season is a time when sweet and carby treats are everywhere. Do any of the following sound like you:

  • Does seeing sweets spur cravings for you?
  • Do you have a hard time avoiding eating carby treats, especially this time of year?
  • Does indulging in these treats throw you off track – for days, weeks or even months – from your healthy eating efforts?  

If any of these describes you, then ...

"What do YOU eat?"

I get this question a lot. And it makes sense that people would want to know those details (beyond our natural human curiosity about what other humans are really up to in their lives! 😜)

As a holistic doctor with a primary focus on guiding people through changing their diets - often drastically - when I provide concrete examples of specific foods and meals (like what I eat), this is like giving you stree...
