Black Bean Lentil Tacos

Black bean lentil tacos are a high-fiber meatless alternative to traditional tacos. They are also more economical and quicker to prepare than meat tacos. I wanted to share my favorite brand of gluten-free wraps. They are Siete brand and found in the refrigerated section of your healthier grocery store. They also have chickpea and almond flour versions. Or instead of using gluten-free wraps, I love this on a bed of greens, organic of course. It can always be served over organic rice or quinoa as a taco bowl.  Speaking of, like always, use organic ingredients to lower your toxic load. Being primarily dairy-free is important to me as…

Natural Solutions to Psoriasis

If you are searching for natural solutions to psoriasis, there is hope. I've seen dramatic improvements with clients by incorporating dietary changes and enzyme therapy.

Natural Solutions to Adrenal Fatigue

In 2013, a client came to me sharing that she had been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue.  I had worked with clients that had various health challenges but this was a new one.
