Important Updates for Healthy Living

Wow! Can you believe it’s almost February already? This month has zoomed by. I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had a chance to create my full featured e-newsletter in over a month!

Good news, though. I have help and I’m committed to sending it out the second Thursday each month. Each issue will have a recipe, featured food, health article about something new or noteworthy, a featured health success story, and some personal news.

***Seeking Newsletter Contributors***

I’m really excited to announce that I’m looking for contributors to the newsletter. Are you a talented living foods chef, or someone who makes delicious food and would like to share recipes? Have a favorite “health food” that you’d like to write an article about, and tell the world about its health benefits and how it’s used? Or do you or a close family member or friend have a really inspiring health transformation story to share?

We’re looking for contributions,and if yours is selected, you’ll get published in the newsletter along with your bio and website, or other contact info of your choosing. Your contributions will also be considered for inclusion in an e-book. Go here for all the details.

I know you’re dedicated to doing the best for your kids. You want them to be healthy, strong and successful. That’s what every parent wishes for their children. But the more you learn about diet and nutrition and the role it plays in your kids’ resistance to disease, ability to focus at school and overall mood and behavior, the more scared you become about how to handle Halloween, the “candy” holiday. All that sugar, chocolate and artificial colors and flavors can’t possibly be good for them. Find out about healthy alternatives here…

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and if you’re a vegan, vegetarian, raw food enthusiast, food allergy sufferer or just someone who wants to eat more healthfully and manage your weight, this is a challenging time of year.

If you’re like many people I know, every year you make the decision that this time’s going to be different. You’ll go easy on the holiday cookies and pie, keep up your exercise, and just not get stressed out like everyone else does, with holiday shopping, wrapping, cards and decorations. You’ll be “good” at the parties and avoid over indulgence. Read more here…


Periodic cleansing and resting your digestive track is essential for vibrant health and boundless energy.  While going away to a retreat center and fasting on green juices is probably the best way to do this, let’s get real.  Who has the time?  And cleansing on your own is just not as effective as having a support group and a mentor with over two decades experience to back you up and cheer you on. Green Smoothies are a great way to cleanse because you’re not hungry all the time.  Find out more about how you can feel more energetic, less bloated and stronger and leaner than ever.

If you love your carbs but hate what they do to your body, we have some really good news for you. By learning the ancient art of dehydration, which is, in essence,  “low temperature baking”, you’ll be able to eat guilt-free breads, loaded with veggie goodness, and have them taste similar to your old favorites.  Gluten free raw foods like pizza, enchiladas and tacos will become your favorite staple foods once you discover how easily you can make them at home.  Read More…
