It’s not about ‘missing out’ or feeling sorry for yourself when you chose to pass on junk food. It’s a way of saying ‘I respect myself’ over what I crave in the moment.

Progesterone levels can shift and change as we approach and move through menopause, AND if women are fasting at the wrong time during their cycle. Q: What’s the wrong time to fast during your cycle? A: The few days leading up to the start of your cycle. ... Those few days before your cycle starts there are so SO many hormone changes and conversions happening, that you need to eat to support those hormones. Once you are a few days in, or once your cycle has ended you may fast again. See more
When you aren’t feeling well. When your body isn’t working in top form - review your foods first! What you fuel yourself with matters.
Anxiety... there are about 40 million people who suffer from it, but there isn’t a whole lot of talk about what causes it. Anxiety can be due to... *gut infections *chronic illness... *chronic inflammation *gut dysbiosis *life And of course... HORMONES! Low progesterone, high cortisol, hyper and hypothyroid, as well as estrogen changes can lead to anxiety. Because us gals cycle our hormones it can be hard to pin point the cause. BUT what I’m saying is... there is a cause of your anxiety. Don’t tell yourself it’s ‘normal’. Find the CAUSE and work to fix it!! There is hope! See more
Bloating is a common problem, but that doesn't make it normal or healthy. If you find yourself bloated on a regular basis, you need to find the root cause and correct it. In the meantime, these are some foods you can easily incorporate into your diet to help with symptom management.
Today is most definitely a SOUP day!! Directions: Sauté shallots, garlic, celery and carrots in butter or avocado oil until tender.... Add shredded roasted chicken, chicken broth, a dash of cayenne, fresh chopped parsley, dill and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let simmer for about 15 minutes.
Tell me what your biggest health challenge is! Where do you struggle the most?
CHEW. CHEW. CHEW. No, seriously... your food should be nearly like *paste* before your swallow it. Why? Most of us are in such a hurry to eat that we swallow before chewing our food enough that we can actually digest it.... This can lead to bloating, heartburn, acid reflux and constipation. Digestion starts in your mouth. Slow down and CHEW.
Inside your gut are about 100 trillion live microorganisms. Yeast and fungus are just a few of them. And in balanced amounts, they are beneficial! But if they begin to overgrow, they will cause issues. 7 most common signs of poor gut health:... 1. food intolerances 2. gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea and heartburn (most commonly diagnosed as IBS, IDB, leaky gut...) 3. weight gain 4. brain fog 5. fatigue 6. skin irritation 7. anxiety and/or depression Just to name a few... If you suspect you have an overgrowth of fungus and yeast there are a few things you can do! First, remove sugar, dairy and processed foods. Second, check out some probiotics. They can help restore balance. Third, if you’ve been dealing with these symptoms for a while and dietary changes aren’t helping, consider running a GI test to assess the specific makeup of your microbiome. This info can help tailor a protocol specific to YOU and your gut!

Inside your gut are about 100 trillion live microorganisms that protect your body from infection, regulate metabolism and the immune system. 7 most common signs of poor gut health: 1. food intolerances 2. gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea and heartburn (most commonly diagnosed as IBS, IDB, leaky gut...)... 3. weight gain 4. brain fog 5. fatigue 6. skin irritation 7. anxiety and/or depression Fasting is an incredible way to heal your gut. *After just 24 hours of fasting, research shows the gut lining begins to generate healing stem cells *Fasting increases bacterial diversity in the gut *Fasting gives the gut the time it needs to restore its integrity. This is especially important for those with 'Leaky Gut', also called Intestinal Permeability, where the gut lining is weakened allowing toxins, partially digested food and pathogens to enter the bloodstream
In endometriosis & autoimmune conditions, it is strongly recommended to avoid dairy products. They can be inflammatory for a number of different reasons. Particularly because of the dairy protein that has a high chance of triggering the immune system to react and create inflammation. Someone with a lactose intolerance lacks the enzyme in their intestines to break down the sugar lactose that is found in dairy products. As a results they can end up experiencing gas, diarrhea, ...etc when they consume lactose. Those lactose-free products are meant for those who cannot breakdown the enzyme lactose. Lactose-free products still contain dairy proteins, and can still trigger the immune system. So for those with autoimmune or endometriosis, all dairy should be avoided. Dairy-free means no dairy at all. Meaning no dairy protein. 'But Sara, I eat dairy and feel fine' is often what I hear. But the thing to remember with autoimmune, is we often don't 'feel' the immune response the typical way. Pay attention to your moods, skin, quality of sleep, energy after eating dairy. Check your antibody levels in blood on dairy, then remove it for 30 days and check again. For optimal health, remember dairy-free and lactose-free are different.
Summer seasonal eats for August
Pregnant in a pandemic. It’s kind of fun to say, less fun to live. To the pregnant mamas out there expecting their first baby. I feel for you. Things are not normally like this. Telling all your family members over FaceTime that you’re expecting, not being able to have your husband at the ultrasound with you, baby showers over Zoom, and pregnancy meetups cancelled. Bringing a baby into a world of so much uncertainty can feel overwhelming. But whatever you’re feeling yo...u’re not alone. If you’re in Winnipeg, there’s a group of women waiting to meet you and each other - to find support, to share experiences - even if that’s just heartburn and morning sickness woes or if it’s more serious, we’re here for that too. Our first park meetup is this THURSDAY (tomorrow)!!! Message us for details! It’s totally free and those that RSVP for the first meetup will receive a welcome package, including a prenatal meal plan! - Samantha, your pregnancy health coach You can RSVP here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2624122594469131/
Enjoy the day!
You’ve heard of ‘fight or flight’ - your body’s programmed response to stress?! Some examples: catching your child before they fall narrowly avoiding a car crash... saving a pet from running into the street In order for us to think + move fast, our body must produce adrenalin/epinephrine, then release blood sugar and cortisol to give us a burst of energy. This is literally life-saving! The problem is... our body can start to react to any stress like this, not just a critical situation. When that happens, we live in a perpetual state of stress. This causes fatigue, insomnia, low immunity, mood swings, irregular cycles, intense sugar/carb cravings. People in this state are more likely to have high blood pressure, anxiety and depression. It is vital to stop this cycle. How do you do that? Rest. Improve digestion. Increase hydration. Focus on mindset. Test adrenal function and supplement specifically.
There are so many FREE ways to keep your immune system in top form!!

Tough love post today. Alcohol can harm every organ in the body, especially the gut, immune system and lungs. We've all seen the memes on social media these past few months about increased alcohol consumption. Zoom happy hour. Family drinking games. One report called 'every night Friday night'. ... I get it, things have been sideways and more challenging than anyone could have imagined. So today I want to remind you... ...the risks of drinking alcohol are well established. Alcohol can harm every organ in your body, including your gut, immune system and even in modest amounts are associated with a greater risk of breast cancer in women. If you want to improve your immune function, stop or reduce drinking alcohol.

While there are several root causes for acne, inflammation is a BIG one. Poor food choices, excess stress, lack of sleep, gut bacteria and toxins can all contribute to this inflammatory load. Inflammation can also cause hormonal imbalances which can lead to acne.... How can you start lowering inflammation? *get to bed by 10 or 10:30pm *swap out conventional home and personal products for natural, chemical free alternatives *have your gut assessed by your favourite Nutritionist *remove dairy, gluten, soy, sugar and corn from your daily diet
