Forego the Fruit & Fire Up The Fat

No, not entirely. You don’t need to ‘not eat fruit’, but hear me out on this one (can I still write ‘hear me out’ for something written?  Not sure, but anyway…) Consider: Eating plenty of assorted, local, organic, seasonal veggies at each meal will ensure you’re getting plenty of fiber throughout the day. Eating more […]

Get Your Green Living Bundle Today

“We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”  And while we may mimic the food groups our ancestors ate by following a True Paleo regime, one thing that is vastly different now compared to back then is the environment we live in.   While we may think we’re being green by recycling […]

Gardening As An Art

Is your green thumb a bit too green? I’m the first to admit it…mine is. It seems so silly that as much as I love real food- preparing it, choosing recipes (or making them up) and presenting them that I don’t actually have a gigantic garden of my own. Confession: I don’t know what I’m […]

Paleo? Or Disordered Eating? Tune in Today to Learn More…

This is a topic I’ve written about before and it needs to be addressed much more often: when does the approach to what one eats cross the boundary from avoiding foods an individual determines makes them feel ill (for example, gluten) to a ultra-restrictive eating plan configured to lose weight, (and I’m not referring to […]

Healthy, Healing Soups Don’t Come in a Can!

If you’re thinking that package of miso soup mix is just the thing to address the sore throat and runny nose you’ve got, think again. Miso, being soy-based product, is on the to-avoid list for all of us following a True Paleo regime, and anything in a packaged mix is far from full of health […]

Ever Feel Like You Want to Eat Your Soap?

Of course, if we think about eating soap, we are likely to conjure images of naughty children uttering words deemed inappropriate by their parents and getting their mouths washed out with soap. This is SO not what I’m writing about today. I’m often asked about what body care or face products are Paleo friendly.   […]

My Kind Of Nuts

I was out running errands the other day and stopped into my local Pharmaca (a chain of natural pharmacies we have in California). As I glanced the contents of the shelf near the check out line, something caught my eye amongst the chocolate and ‘energy bars’. A bag of nuts, with a label indicating BPA-free […]
