If you read my blog regularly, you know I love eggs. We typically go through about 3-4 dozen eggs per week. Our little family consisting of 2 adults and one toddler. Eggs are one of the most economical ways to increase the nutrients in your family’s diet. Eggs are full of vitamin D, vitamin A, vitamin E, omega 3 fatty acids, beta carotene, cholesterol (which is good for you), and saturated fat (also good for you). Why Pastured Eggs? I don’t just buy any eggs. I only buy pastured eggs from local farmers who keep their chickens outdoors and let them roam around in the sun, eating bugs.

When I was in my twenties, I spent two years on a wheat free diet (I also avoided all sugar and took therapeutic-grade probiotics). I was recovering from candida overgrowth which was caused by the large amounts of antibiotics I was given during my childhood, and a diet full of white flour and sugar.

My two-year gluten-free sugar-free diet was worth it. I completely reversed my rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, and respiratory allergies. I went from having constant colds and being sick all the time with sinus infections to being vibrantly healthy again. The chronic joint pain and physical exhaustion had vanished.

I want to share with you a letter Sally Fallon Morell wrote to President Obama (then President-Elect Obama) regarding the diet inmates in the Illinois prison system are being fed, made up largely of soy foods, and the widespread health problems these prisoners are experiencing from eating this soy diet.

Happy Valentine’s Day! I have been trying to think of some special treats I could whip up for my loved ones this weekend.

Mothers are always looking for healthy lunch ideas. So I thought I’d share some kids lunch ideas with you. It’s hard enough to come up with healthy recipes for kids — much less recipes for portable meals that can go in a lunch box or lunch sack. Plus, most toddlers are picky eaters. You want to pack something they will actually eat — not leave sitting there while they fill up on other kids’ Doritos and Oreos. Here are a few tips on how to pack lunches for kids, with a list of ideas for healthy lunch ideas and lunch menus.
