Apples + Fall...a winning combination!

A comfort food that's good for you, I'm in! Apple Cider Donuts. Just in time for fall!

Common sense. These days it seems everywhere we turn someone makes the comment that common sense is lacking in our society. That's a troubling thought. But I believe that is about to change. It happened last year when I read a book titled, Thyroid Healing: The truth behind Hashimoto's, Graves', insomnia, hypothyroidsim, thyroid nodules & Epstein-Barr by Anthony William, Medical Medium. There's just something about what he says and writes that makes sense. Right now, I'm reading his first book, Medical Medium, which he revised and expanded because of the covid pandemic.

Anthony helps us bridge the gap between our understanding of how our bodies work and how everything we eat, think and do affects this amazing machine we live in. He provides the tools to get healthy and stay healthy. In simple, easy to understand and follow language. Plain and simple.

I consider myself to have an open mind (most of the time), but I carry a healthy dose of skepticism as well. However, my life experiences have proven to me, time and time again, that anything is possible and there is so much we do not know or understand about this world, this universe, we live in.

I have tried many of Anthony's recipes which offer healthy alternatives to comfort foods (those foods we crave even when we know they are not good for our bodies). But Anthony flipped the script on these misunderstood gems and created easy recipes that not only taste wonderful but provide us with a healthy alternative: ice cream made from frozen bananas (OMG, where has this been all my life!), "Nacho Style" baked potatoes that were fulfilling and delicious (now that's flipping the script!), and a garlic cashew aloli which quickly became my favorite topping. Just to name a few.

I've reached the age where serious changes are happening within me, and I have no desire to lose any of the ground I enjoy standing on. If change is in the cards, then I'm dealing the cards and taking some control of the hand I am dealt.

There are sacrifices. Eggs, dairy, pork have to be completely eliminated if I want to heal my body.

Love is about making sacrifices, but it is so worth it.

It is time. I am learning to become my best advocate for my health.
