Food is a subject very close to my heart. As a young girl, I loved being in the kitchen, baking, cooking and creating new recipes.
But, in my teenage years, as I started to gain weight, I started to see food as my enemy. I struggled every year to lose my extra weight. With each failed diet, I pretty much resigned myself to carrying an extra 10 to 20 pounds for the rest of my life. But, fortunately, the Universe had a different plan!
In my 20s I started researching fitness and nutrition, and I found it was whole foods, portion control, and exercise that finally helped me lose the weight and keep it off. I followed clean eating guru, Tosca Reno, and read all her books. I started taking nutrition seminars. My weight was stable....until I hit my 40s......
I felt tired and sluggish all the time. My digestion was off. I didn't feel quite “right”. Not BAD, but not great. Even though I have eliminated many chemicals from my diet and eat very clean, I was still struggling with how I FELT.
I noticed that no matter how much I exercised, that my weight would stay the SAME. And if I didn’t exercise, or eat well, I’d GAIN weight VERY easily. I had my thyroid tested a year ago and it was normal. I had several more tests run last week and finally had my answer!
There were several things going on with me. All simple fixes, but if left untreated, could end up much much worse.
I was very deficient in B12 and deficient in Vitamin D. Both very simple fixes. But those were SYMPTOMS—> like the many other symptoms. Symptoms of chronic inflammation, and Graves Disease, which was my final diagnosis. Inflammation is the biggest disease causing culprit.
Although I was eating clean, I was not RESTORING or HEALING MY HEALTH. Your grand central station for how you FEEL. Years of eating processed food as a kid and most of my adult life. For over 30 years I was digesting round up, antibiotics and vaccines. Then add stress and high cortisol levels. All things that even the BEST past 10 years of eating clean can’t undo. I am thankful for least or my
Shakeology, as my doctor said it kept me from getting worse more rapidly. But the probiotics and digestive enzymes in Shakeology can only repair so much on it’s own. It’s like holding a single umbrella over your head during a hurricane. Our body needs to be restored and given a chance to heal itself with the OTHER foods we eat.
Inflammation can later lead to a spectrum of autoimmune diseases like Hashimotos, Graves disease, Psoriasis, Fibromyalgia, Ulcerative Colitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis to name a few. Ironically, all of these autoimmune diseases have TRIPLED in just the last 50 years. Also, inflammation holds the KEY to your metabolism. Improve your gut health and you improve your weight <3

This group will target FIVE ASPECTS of your health using natural whole foods and low impact fitness to help you start healing. It will focus on
1. Decreasing Inflammation – Most diseases today are due to inflammation. Inflammation damages your cells and arterials walls and causes High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol, Arthritis, and digestive disorders like Crohn’s disease to name a few. By reducing inflammation your body is better able to heal from any disease.
2. Alkalizing the body – Your body should have an average pH of 7.36. A can of soda literally has a pH of 2.5 and it would take approximately 30 glasses of water just to balance things out. Green vegetable juices like wheat grass and leafy greens like spinach, dandelion greens, or kale help restore the body’s proper pH. All diseases including infections, Osteoporosis and Cancer thrive in an acidic environment. By alkalizing your body your cells can heal and regenerate at the highest level.
3. Lowering blood glucose – One of the primary causes of Diabetes and weight gain are burnt out and insulin receptors. By lowering blood glucose levels, insulin receptors can heal and your body can begin to produce normal amounts of insulin to heal diabetes and leptin for weight loss.
4. Eliminating Toxins – Toxicity has become epidemic in or society today and is a major cause of our increase in hormonal imbalance and autoimmune diseases. The diet helps problems like female disorders, infertility, hypothyroidism and headaches by balancing hormones and helps in reversal of autoimmune diseases like Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Alzheimer’s, and Autism.
5. Providing Optimum Nutrients – Many of today’s illnesses are due to nutritional deficiencies. Most of the foods we eat today are processed and stripped of all vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and enzymes. This diet slows the aging process, improves mental capacity, and increases energy levels.
