Are you your own worst enemy?

Lately I’ve become more enlightened about the tendency of self-sabotage. Yes, I’m guilty! And I’m certain I’m not the only one. Why is it that we betray ourselves to such an unnecessary and burdensome delusion? Within each of us is a strong, capable and proud individual. Yet we do not always allow this person to thrive. We pin them down

Gluten-free banana walnut bread

There are literally thousands of banana bread variations out there. I’ve been experimenting and perfecting this recipe over a year and I’m confident to say, I’ve nailed it! Gluten-free is not just for people with coeliac disease (although it is the only true and severe form of gluten allergy), but can be incredibly helpful for other gut problems and adverse health

Some fruits & veggies better for weight loss? (new study)

When it comes to great health, we’ve all heard the generic messages about eating more fruits and vegetables. However, a recently published study suggests that some fruits and vegetables may be more beneficial for maintaining or achieving a healthy weight. The pertinent study investigated the dietary intakes of 133,468 men and women over 24 years between 1986 and 2010. Weight

Good dietary habits can speed up and improve recovery from training sessions and enhance your overall preparedness and performance.

Mind body green feature: 9 food choices that will boost your mood

I’m very excited to be sharing advice over at MindBodyGreen. My latest article stems from a fairly personal journey having battled through post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and the subsequent depression, anxiety and fluctuating mood that came along with it since I was around 16 years of age. Researching ways to manage poor mood through nutrition and other healthy behaviours is one of

The benefits of breastfeeding

Breastfeeding versus formula feeding – this is a very controversial and emotionally-fueled topic that is often presented in opposition. While this article is focused on the benefits of breastfeeding, I wish to open with the acknowledgement that breastfeeding is not always easy or possible and can present with many challenges including, but not limited to, inadequate emotional and educational support,

7 scientifically-backed sports supplements

The sports supplements market is a booming industry propagated by hyperbolic marketing hype. To cut through the noise, below is an informative (no affiliated or commercially-invested) list of some of the best sports supplements, also known as ergogenic aids, that are supported by science. 1) Beetroot juice I first noticed the appearance of beetroot juice during one of my curious

Plant-based sources of protein

The thought of consuming protein often evokes images of chowing down on a piece of steak, chicken or buckets loaded with chalky amino acids. This is certainly true for my partner-in-crime and it’s required a subtle retraining of his protein perceptions. Many people today are consuming protein in excess of their actual requirements. Unlike carbohydrates and fat, protein storage is

Gluten-free savory muffins

Many years ago I found the most delicious and addictive savory muffins… gradually they were lost to become a distant pleasurable nostalgia. I’ve modeled this recipe on that very memory and I’m excited to say, they pass the test! These decadent savory muffins are also gluten-free and easy on the tummy.

Don’t be ruined by rawliciously raw desserts

Raw desserts taste amazing and I must thank my good friend Jayde Hwang from Nourish & Adore for developing my senses for these decadent treats. They are made with real, raw food and can be an excellent source of indulgent nourishment. However, it’s easy to assume these desserts are healthy and even easier to enjoy them in over-abundance once your
