I actually feel a bit embarrassed when I travel abroad and face a question posed by many: Why are your portions in the US so gigantic? Gulp. It wasn’t my idea. We’ve likely all seen the documentaries which detail how small a burger and soda were in the 50s…compare that to present day. I […]
Read More ›An article in the Billings Gazette was refreshing in that it reviewed Paleo favorably… it’s about time! Written by an MD, who specializes in pediatric gastroenterology, no less, it does a fair job of outlining what Paleo is all about and despite its title being ever so slightly off-putting (“Going Paleo From A Standard […]
Read More ›A client shared an ad with me the other day; it was for a six minute video featuring an elderly, overweight women sharing about how her diabetic nerve pain became so debilitating, she had to seek medication. Despite the potential side effects (copied and pasted from Lyrica’s own site) below, she opted to take it […]
Read More ›Wondering why that ‘stew’ meat you bought turned out so chewy? It’s not as though you bought cheap meat, in which case you might expect it to be a little on the tough side. After all, you made the effort to be sure it was 100% grass fed and, since you were making kabobs, […]

Despite two college ex-boyfriends who were very into football, being an alum of USC and having read Football for Dummies, the cold, […]
Read More ›Often, when new to Paleo, people might turn their nose up at the idea of no traditional dressings for salads. Ranch, Bleu Cheese, Creamy Italian and Russian are far from Paleo with ingredients including cream, cheese, soybean or peanut oil and along with a very high sodium and/or sugar content. What’s left?
