Healthy Habits

You got the positive test, yay! But what do you do now? First, find an OB or midwife that supports your values and honors your wishes as a pregnant momma. A provider that truly listens to you and walks alongside you during your pregnancy is invaluable. From there, it's all about taking care of you AND baby!

Extreme restriction, drinking gallons of lemon water with cayenne pepper, or eliminating entire macro categories are some of the more common ones we hear--and trust me when I say that these will not truly give you the detoxification you're hoping for.

So, you've got the healthy eating down when you're at home. You buy all the right things and feel confident in your diet. And then you go out to eat. All the rules go out the window, right? Not so fast. For some people eating outside the home is rare, but for others it happens fairly often. Regardless, in order to set yourself up for success when eating out, it's helpful to have a game plan ahead of time.

Feeling like you overdid it during the holidays? Maybe too much sugar, alcohol, or consumption of foods that are inflammatory for you personally? We're here to help!

When patients come into our office looking for help, often the first area we encourage them to change is their diet. So many are stuck in habits that have left them sick, tired, and relying on prescription medications to get by. But if you're confused about the numerous opinions out there, overwhelmed by making changes, or just too busy to figure out what works for you, keep reading.

We all love a warm, creamy, savory dip with salty chips. And many people making dietary changes feel like they will never be able to enjoy those kinds of foods ever again. But this is not the case!

Our founder, Keri, has created a gift guide of some of her favorite things. All hand picked with clean and non-toxic living in mind. You'll find ideas for anyone on your list (including yourself!), that all support a healthy lifestyle. Some have special discounts too, so make note!

Whether you’re sautéing vegetables, making your favorite muffins, or grabbing a bag of chips for your football party, you should be mindful about the ingredients you’re using and eventually consuming. Cooking oils are used nearly daily in the average household. So, its safe to say that something consumed this frequently is safe and you can grab any type of oil off the grocery store shelf, right? Unfortunately, this isn’t the case.
