She hiked and said she was “really fit.” But then …

I met a new woman in class recently who told me she was “really fit” because she hikes all the time. She was confident, upbeat, and genuinely believed she had her bases covered.

Hiking is great, so I get why she thought that. But it’s not the same as being strong.

I Couldn’t Walk Across the Parking Lot

For years, Ben and I circled parking lots like it was a sport. We weren’t being picky. We were desperate. Even the thought of walking across the lot to the store made my heart race — not from effort, but from dread.

It was around March or April of 2017. One morning I woke up and saw my pillowcase covered in hair. Not a few strands—covered.

I froze. I was scared and completely taken aback. My first thought wasn’t even coherent. Just panic. “Holy crap. What is happening to me? What’s going on?”

I used to believe “healthy” meant eating less meat and chasing numbers on a scale. Truth? That advice nearly broke me.

The latest research shows why old nutrition guidelines got it wrong—and why real food matters most.

The nutrition panel that shook old meat advice — The NutriRECS Guideline For decades, the nutrition world has warned us about red meat. We were told it was dangerous for our hearts, our waistlines, and even our lives. But in 2019, a global team of researchers released new guidelines that challenged this long-standing advice. They looked at all the existing evidence on re...

One of the largest nutrition studies ever done tracked 135,000 people across 18 countries — and the results flipped decades of advice on its head.

High fat diets? Lower risk of death.
High carb diets? Higher risk.

Moms, seniors, and anyone wanting better health — this could change how you think about your plate.

135,000 People Taught Us, High Fat, Lower Risk — The P.U.R.E Study When “healthy eating” left me cold and starving There was a time when I only ate salads, thinking I was doing the right thing. But I was constantly cold, moody, and starving. I wasn’t thriving — I was barely functioning. Once I gave my body real food and real fuel, everything changed. I lear...

Saturated Fat is NOT the Problem — A Study

Why saturated fat might be part of the solution—not the problem.

For decades, we’ve been told to avoid saturated fat. That it clogs arteries. That it’s bad for our hearts. But a major review published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology challenges all that.

It’s one of the 10 studies I that I’m reviewing and sharing with you.

Healthy Middle-Aged Women Study — Low Fat Problem

The link between low cholesterol and low mood.

There was a time when I only ate salads, thinking I was doing the right thing. But I was constantly cold, moody, and starving. I wasn’t thriving—I was barely functioning. Once I gave my body real food and real fuel, everything changed.
