"Never before has there been such a mountain of empirical research supporting a whole foods, plant-based diet. People are beginning to sense the need for change and are beginning to question some of the most basic assumptions that we have about food and health- and are changing their lives for the better." The China Study, T. Colin Campbell

    • Rip Esselstyn is going to be on the Dr. Oz show tomorrow (Feb. 11th)

      Make sure to check it out!

       

      Rip Esselstyn is Caldwell B. Esselstyn Jr's son.  Caldwell Esselstyn wrote one of my favorite books: Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease.  He is a famous heart surgeon who conducted a nutritional study that showed how diet can not only prevent and stop heart disease...but it can reverse it.  His book provides amazing life saving health information as well as provides wonderful vegan recipes.

       

      Ever since I heard about Rip Esselstyn and his book the ENGINE 2 DIET I have wanted to know more about it...and now I can!  He is all about a plant-based diet and his book shows how his fellow fireman have lowered their cholesterol and lost weight eating the same way.

      Check out his website!

      I am so excited to see another big tv show talking about plant based nutritrion!  Dr. Oz had the Vegan Cowboy show...and now the Vegan Firefighters!  I am so excited!

My journey started the day I became a MOMMY.  From the very beginning I had such a strong desire to feed my children the best.  And thus I started my quest to find out what exactly is the best.  In doing so, I not only found how to feed my children but also how to feed myself.  One of my greatest joys as a Mommy is when I cook an extremely healthy meal and my family not only eats it, but asks for seconds.  Does my family eat perfect?  I wish I could say yes.  Unfortunately the real world comes into play.  But there is a power in knowing what is perfect...A power in knowing what foods cause disease...A power in knowing how my family and I can live a long healthy life together.  Join me on my never-ending journey of eating that healthy meal and never feeling guilty about asking for seconds.
