What have you chosen? About a month ago, I asked you to write in if you used to be Paleo but opted to not continue to follow the diet. I’m always interested to learn why people choose to either forgo it completely or perhaps modify with some not so Paleo foods into something they […]
Read More ›Yes, it’s possible. It doesn’t have to be the sugar festival that Halloween often turns into, for those of you with little ones. Straight from the horses’ mouths (my clients who are moms), since the Easter holiday is typically one spent with family, as compared to Halloween, a far more social event, you can oversee […]
Read More ›Let’s put the concept that legumes and grains alike both have anti nutrient properties and that neither are part of the Paleo diet on the back burner for a moment. Beyond that, from a very simplistic point of view, if you’re not someone who is engaged in long endurance activity, not only do you simply […]
Read More ›Salami, Prosciutto, Speck, Culatello, Coppa, Guanciale and Pancetta, just to name a few are delicious preparations of meat, indeed…but are they Paleo? I’m afraid not. Because most are cured with salt and sometimes sugar, and sometimes additives like nitrates and nitrites, both of which are linked to cancers, by the way, they’re not considered a […]
Read More ›I’ve blogged before about the fact that our two Weimaraners are Paleo, which is one of the reasons, the other being the fact that they’re life long athletes, they’re often mistaken for being about half their age. They are getting up there in years, though, as much as I hate to admit it. They’re both […]
Read More ›I wish I were kidding, but today, in the ‘ask the expert’ column of a popular magazine, there was a reader inquiry regarding protein. She explained that she follows a vegetarian diet and wondered whether she should ‘supplement with protein’. Supplement? A supplement is something akin to an added little extra; perhaps an extra lime […]
Read More ›Hey, Nell, I noticed that a lot of your recipes you use coconut oil, where olive oil would seem just as appropriate. I was just wondering if coconut was in some way better that EVOO? I know it has less omega 6, but really I think some omega 6 is fine, so long as you’re […]
Read More ›There are reasons to get healthy everywhere we look; and sometimes these very reasons are sitting with us at the dinner table, watching television with us on a Monday evening or tugging at our hands to go outside and play. Yes, I’m talking about kids. While I don’t have any of my own, except, of […]
Read More ›That was precisely my friend’s reaction when she read through a delicious-sounding recipe in a popular cooking magazine for roasted broccoli. At first, she assumed it must be some last ditch attempt to trick kids into eating their veggies, which I’d obviously be vehemently opposed to. She happened to mention it when we were at […]
Read More ›Yes, it can be done. With Passover just one week away, I thought it a suitable time to post some alternatives to the traditional meal in order to give you enough time to procure your ingredients and prepare a lovely holiday meal.
