News flash: This is NOT normal!

News flash: This is NOT normal!

  The people I’ve consulted with over the years probably numbers into the thousands at this point, and although my clients’ health concerns have run the gamut, one central theme rings true with just about everyone I encounter. They are suffering, they don’t know why, and sadly have come to view their sickly state of health as “normal.” They’re overweight, lack energy, have high blood pressure, diabetes, gut aches, chronic infections, allergies, asthma, arthritis, you-name-it....

You may have this “silent” condition and not even know it

You may have this “silent” condition and not even know it

  Most times when something is awry in our bodies, we get pretty obvious hints.  This is especially true of acid reflux (aka GERD) because most people with the condition experience heartburn on a very regular basis, along with burping, belching, post-nasal drip and in extreme cases, neck pain, and even heart palpitations! But there is another sneakier kind of reflux that doesn’t typically manifest itself as a burning chest or chronic belching. As a...

It’s a fact—carb addiction is real! (Here’s how to break free)

It’s a fact—carb addiction is real! (Here’s how to break free)

  I once worked with someone who absolutely could not say no to starchy carbs and sugars. She always had a box of some kind of chip or cracker in her desk at work. She used to sneak to the little store across the street from the office and buy cookies or candy after lunch. When we would have a birthday celebration for a co-worker, she would take a second piece of cake later in...

I have a secret to tell you

I have a secret to tell you

  I have a little secret to share with you. Today is my birthday, and not only that, this is my LAST birthday in the 50s. Gulp! And while knocking on the door of 60 may sound a little scary on the surface, I honestly feel great! I’m still running every week, doing full-contact karate sparring (fighting men), and enjoying a consistent high level of energy. Plus I recently got mistaken as my daughter’s sister...

One of the biggest threats to our existence

One of the biggest threats to our existence

  You probably know this about me already, but I’m a people watcher. Not in a weird way, but in a professional/educational way. I watch people’s food choices in restaurants, grocery stores and (most recently since I just flew home from Florida yesterday) airports and look for any obvious physical issues. I’m not judging—rather, as a nutrition coach, it’s important for me to see first-hand what people are eating and how it may affect them! ...

A disturbing trend in our society today

A disturbing trend in our society today

  In addition to being the month in which yours truly was born, August is also National Wellness Month. And while that sounds very virtuous and positive, based on my observations, there isn’t a lot of “wellness” going on. The statistics are downright shocking:  Nearly 75 percent of us are overweight or obese, seven out of 10 of us take one or more prescription medications every day, over 70 percent have digestive problems and half...
