10 Signs You’re Magnesium Deficient
Are you magnesium deficient? Very likely.

Deficiency in magnesium has been linked to type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis, [...]
20 Vegetables You Should Be Eating (+ Yummy Recipes)

3 Simple stretches for better posture: Takes less than five minutes.
Stretches for better posture? Is it really that easy? Yes! It seems that whenever I tell people that I am a movement analyst that they immediately sit up taller, pull their shoulders back, and then sheepishly tell me that they know they have bad posture. Rest assured, I'm not judging your posture. But I do know [...]

It's worked better than any store bought stuff [...]

All Natural Homemade Foundation Powder: For a happy face.
Homemade foundation: Let's do this! I've had quite a few requests for a homemade foundation powder. After giving you homemade mascara, homemade blush, bronzer, and lip balm I really wanted to give you a good homemade foundation powder. Of course foundation is tricky. For one, it covers the whole face. It needs to go on [...]
The ugly truth about vegetable oils (and why they should be avoided)
In case you didn't know: Vegetable oils are bad. Bad news. Bad for your health. Bad for the environment. Just bad. I get a lot of questions about what fats and oils I use for cooking. It makes sense; after all there is a lot of confusion about fat in general. And with the increasing [...]
31 Amazing Uses for Lemon Peels
I love lemons. They are bright, refreshing, and smell divine. I've gotten in the habit of squeezing fresh lemon juice in a glass of water to help wake me up (and my digestive system) first thing in the morning. When I first started, I'm ashamed to admit that I would usually just throw the lemon [...]

36 Uses for Baking Soda
When I first started making my transition to a natural diet, natural cleaners and toxic-free personal care products I was amazed by how few ingredients I really needed for both my health and my cleaning products. I also began to notice those few "super" team-players that seemed to show up everywhere: Coconut oil in many [...]
Homemade mascara: All natural and eye friendly
Why homemade mascara? For some time now my entire makeup routine has been a dab of lip balm and a quick brush of mascara. But I still wondered if these two little "makeup essentials" were really good for me. Being the hippie-lovin'-green-livin' type gal that I am, I was pretty sure the answer was "no." [...]
What’s really in a McDonald’s hamburger?
What's in a McDonald's hamburger? A 100% beef patty that's seasoned with a pinch of salt and pepper, topped with melty cheese, tangy pickles, minced onions, and (of course) ketchup and mustard. Duh. Sounds pretty good, right? This is how the McDonad's hamburger is advertised. Sounds simple enough. And from a real food perspective, it [...]
