Our world has been turned upside down. For many of you your dreams took on a new vision and were not what you had imagined, yet many of you created something that took your personal and business lives to new heights.

Why Fermented Foods? (amazing lacto fermented Kimchi recipe below)

Why Fermented Foods? (amazing lacto fermented Kimchi recipe below)

My “gut” tells me that most people have no idea that there is a difference between the pickles or sauerkraut that you can get in the supermarket vs the lacto fermented vegetables you can purchase (in a few places) or make in the privacy of your own kitchen.

So what really is the difference?

Lacto fermented vegetables are filled with probiotics that help our gut digest and assimilate our food

Lacto fermented foods are raw and without any chemicals added

To Detox or Not?

To Detox or Not?

The world we live in is filled with way too many toxins.  They are found in our food, our environment and just about everywhere we go.  The problem I see is that these toxins find a place in our body to live.  In some people they may create a digestive problem, weight issue and the list goes on. Toxins are stored in our fat cells.

I believe in nourishing the body.  When we work together with an elimination program; introducing herbs and foods that can heal the body the toxins can slowly make their way out of the body without creating additional health issues for people.
