My 30-Day Kombucha Experience
No matter how healthy I eat, how much yoga I do, how hard I run, meditate or relax, my intestines like to go rogue every now and again. Gas, bloating, constipation, it’s nasty.
What A Nutrition Educator Eats: Vegetable Boosting Edition
Have you ever stared in the face of a radish and said, either in your head or out loud (no judgement), ‘What am I going to do with you?!’ Do you reach for a fresh piece of fruit instead of a bag of celery sticks because celery is, well, kinda boring? Have you, consciously or…
5 Steps To End Your Sugar Addiction
POWER POSSE POST BY JENNIFER STERLING I spent 10 years struggling with a sugar addiction along with all the other issues that come along with it – lethargy, bloating, headaches, skin issues and yeast infections. I visited several doctors and health practitioners, went on various medications and herbs, but nothing seemed to help for longer…
Pineapple Curry Coleslaw + Overcoming Fears
Trying something new can be scary, overwhelming and downright mortifying. Unfamiliarity makes our wildly active and fertile imaginations run rampant. The what-ifs start piling up and, before we know it, we have a mental list a mile long of why we can’t move forward with something.
Watermelon Smoothie Cooler
Do you find yourself drudging through your work day? Maybe the 2pm energy crash is a bit too familiar? My favorite way to boost my spirits in the mid-afternoon is to sit out in the sun, for 10 minutes or so, and sip on a healthy, refreshing drink. AND I have just the refreshingly light…

Do you have a bucket list? You know, the things you want to be, do and experience while you’re still alive and kicking? Besides touring Africa, diving off the coast of Thailand or living in a cabin in the middle of nowhere, I have a couple of silly food-related dreams on my list.

The tortilla chip is a marvelous thing. It’s salty, crunchy, textured, and goes well with just about anything. If you’re not down with corn, or you’re looking for a light summertime snack, the classic tortilla chip just doesn’t fit the bill.
Gluten-free, Dairy-free Pancakes at Cafe Natura
I was on a mission to find some of the coolest gluten-free eating spots while we made our way across the country last week. It’s not every day that you get to visit 5 states and 3 provinces. I had a restaurant list ready and raring to go!
Deluxe Cherry and Fennel Salad
We made it to Calgary! The dogs are ecstatic, we’re overjoyed, and the car is happy to be resting. When I was in Calgary a couple of weeks ago to look for a home for us, little pieces aligned and, miraculously, Kevin and I were able to get our Airdrie home back. The universe works…
What A Nutrition Educator Eats: Road Trip Edition
There’s nothing quite like packing up your life, stuffing your dogs, boyfriend and some luggage in a small vehicle, and proceeding to drive for 7 days. 3,4000 kilometers down, 500 to go on our Cross Canada (turned Cross United States when we realized just how huge Ontario was) adventure from Montreal Quebec to Calgary Alberta.
