Candida, Inflammation, Autism & Auto-immune Diseases
Candida overgrowth begins in the colon. Over time, as the fungal yeast multiplies it begins to migrate through the digestive tract, moving up into the small intestine, then the stomach (bloating, indigestion), up the esophagus and into the mouth. If it becomes strongly entrenched there you can see a white film on your tongue and inside your cheeks. Once it has moved up to the mouth and you spit into a glass of water the yeast will sink because it is heavier than water. If there is no yeast it will float on top.

Luscious Oils = Liquid Gold For Your Skin
The best ingredient for removing sunscreen and makeup and for clearing up greasy-acne-prone skin is oil. It sounds counter-intuitive, right? Jeannette Graf, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai Medical Center, in New York says "Oil fights oil, so an oil cleanser will sweep away pore-clogging oils." Oils are produced from seeds, nuts and flowers and there is no more natural way to have beautiful skin than to use what our lovely planet has gifted us. That does include infusing our bodies with healthy food by choosing carefully what we eat and what we apply to our largest organ.

Healing Our Inner & Outer World with Whole Foods
Our inner world is a reflection of our outer world in many ways. Each of our bodies is a microcosm of events so profoundly powerful that one simple imbalance of internal power can throw our entire processing system into turmoil. Yet we view ourselves without power to create changes within that can balance us in ways that will allow us to come from a place of clarity, purpose and love.

True Confessions of a Holistic Nutrition Adviser
Armed with an overloaded brain full of nutritional information, I headed into the sweet-laden holiday season determined to welcome my outcome with the embrace of awareness. My 2011 was spent immersed in hundreds of hours of courses studying over 100 different dietary theories in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition where I was indoctrinated into all of the shoulds and shouldn'ts of what is most nutritious for our bodies. In other words, I am very aware of what food can do to and for our bodies. It's been a fascinating journey and I've enjoyed every energetic footstep.
