Low Carb, Paleo Sushi- and No, I'm not kidding.
< div class= " separator " style= " clear: both; " > When one makes the decision to & nbsp;embrace a grain free diet, one often fails to consider that one of the carby delights in life, sushi, will no longer be a regular staple of the diet. I like sushi, & nbsp;but I am not a purist, I ' m a roll kind of gal. Which in some sets, is the trash of sushi. I like things with rice, tempura-ed shellfish, cream cheese, things with the word ' rainbow ' in the name, avocado, things with the word ' California ' in the name. I think you get the gist. So while I could have proper sushi, nigiri, on a paleo diet, I have ZERO interest ...

Sleep Better with Food and Fitness
Just as sleep is important to our body, what we do with our body in terms of food and exercise plays a major role in the way we sleep (or don’t sleep). Good nutrition and exercise can help you sleep, but poor sleep leads to poor eating and exercise decisions immediately. A lack of shut-eye is linked with ditching your workout. It’s one thing to skip the workout to get more sleep once in awhile, but if you ditch your workout and cheat yourself of sleep, then you aren’t breaking the cycle.
Contrary to what we have all been told, eating prior to bed is not such a bad thing after all. In fact, a light snack contai...

Gastrointestinal recovery after the wheat battle is won
Josie posted this comment that addresses the issue of bowel health recovery post-grain removal.
I have been wheat-free for almost a year now and I no longer fall asleep during the day, and my mental fog has disappeared. My wheat-free life is great!
However, I am experiencing major digestion problems. I went to see a dietitian and explained to her I do not eat wheat and try not to eat grains. She emphasized that I need fiber in my diet and based on my current food intake I was not receiving an adequate amount, which was most likely the cause of my digestion problems.
She respects that I do not eat wheat, but is encouraging...

Cindy J.
The success Cindy has seen with her migraines has been well-documented in others. There are some studies available on my site that highlight this. – Dr. Perlmutter
I have suffered from migraines for 26 years. They have been debilitating and over the years I have tried everything to prevent them. My neurologist has prescribed an arsenal of drugs, including beta-blockers, anti-depressants, calcium channel blockers, antihistamines and topamax. I tried eliminating triggers from my diet to no avail. I always got a migraine when the pressure dropped and there was a storm. Nothing stopped my weekly headaches. Sometimes I...

Enjoy the Taste of Eating Right with Flavorful Foods
It’s National Nutrition Month and all month long we’re sharing fun and delicious ways to “enjoy the taste of eating right.” To me, it’s all about making practical food choices, and about blending taste and nutrition. When we’re trying to eat right, we want to focus on FLAVOR, because who wants to eat something that doesn’t taste good, right?
I was on Let’s Talk Live this week sharing some of my favorite tips for snacks and breakfasts that are full of flavor and packed with nutrition. Hopefully it can help make eating right a little easier (and a little tastier!) for you and your family. ...

Slimming Superfood Recipe: Shrimp Tacos with Blueberry-Avocado Salsa
What do you get when you mix powerful superfoods into a delicious salsa? An antioxidant-rich, nutrient-packed condiment that amps up the flavor of traditional tacos with a dose of sweetness. Despite the cold temps outside, you'll feel like you're in a tropical paradise while you eat these slightly-spicy shrimp tacos. The salsa's blueberries not only add juicy goodness, but they also provide nutrients called anthocyanins that may help to prevent cancer. Erstwhile, the avocado's rich, creamy texture balances out the sweet blueberry flavor and provides heart-healthy fats. Try some on the shrimp tacos tonight and make extra to...

Heel Tastic Intensive Heel Therapy – Look at the label
Heel Tastic Intensive Heel Therapy is a beauty best seller on Amazon. Let’s look at the label.
Heel Tastic is a wax-based moisturizer sold in a no-mess stick form. The product claims are fairly pedestrian:
Heel Tastic Claims

Its fragrant, easy-to-use formula is absorbed deep below the skin’s surface to aid the body’s natural healing process, turning even tough, cracked skin, baby-smooth and soft after only a...

Salmon Salad Recipe: Quick, Convenient, and Healthy
If you’re like me you love all kinds of salads. Not just greens (which are FAB) but also tuna salad, egg salad, chicken salad and the like. That’s why I can’t believe it took me so long to add salmon salad to the mix!
Make Ahead Meals Save Time and Energy
I love meals you can make once and eat 3-4 times, especially for lunches which tend to be “all business” for me. I want it to be super easy and delicious, but during the week, I don’t have time! I know you don’t either.
This recipe is my healthy take on salmon salad. I use hummus to add another interesting layer of flavor plus n...

Meatless Monday Recipe: Pan Fried Chickpea Salad
Another Happy Meatless Monday, where has February gone!
Today I wanted to share a delicious, very simple, healthful and savory vegetarian side dish: Pan Fried Chickpea Salad. This one-pot chickpea salad is made with warming spices, vibrant cilantro and lemon, protein packed chickpeas, making it the perfect go-to accompaniment. Not to mention the absolutely divine dressing! It keeps for up to a week when left undressed, so consider doubling it to have at your convenience. I love serving a double portion as a main meal topped with thick slices of creamy ripe avocado or toasted walnuts for an added crunch.
