I don’t know why, but bagels seem to be a comfort food that one never grows out of. Whether it’s a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast or a bagel sandwich for lunch, there is always something comforting about biting into the soft, donut shaped bread. The downside of this childhood favorite? Bagels are usually made with refined white flour [...]
Around the age of 7, I started telling people that I was going to be a lawyer when I grew up. I don’t really know why. I don’t think that I knew any lawyers at the time. Maybe because the answer was so simple, tight – requiring no further explanation. And it always got a positive response from the grown-up [...]
I tend to be a bit of a rule breaker. Always have been. And that started carrying over into how I cook long ago. I think of recipes as more of a friendly suggestion. They offer a helpful starting point and then I take it from there. The only real exceptions are baked goods and salad dressings. When I mention [...]
“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” I cannot tell you how many times I have heard that statement, but just how true it really is. With breakfast being essential for our bodies and brains to function well, what we choose to eat every morning is most important for the outcome of our days. One way I make [...]
Ah, it’s love week – the week where red roses and heart-shaped chocolates come out to greet you at the grocery store. Well, if you are living anything close to the lives of Springer and myself (enthusiastically busy with exciting projects, deadlines, and family events), then you might be thinking that some genuine TLC (tender lovin’ care) may be the [...]

It is derived from a root that grows in the high altitudes of the Peruvian Andes and is known to be “Nature’s Viagra,” as well as a natural energy booster. On top of improving libido, Maca root is also [...]
Happy (barely 2-year) Anniversary, Eat Life Whole! It was about 730 days ago when Springer and I decided to make Eat Life Whole a real, legal “thing” in our lives. February 14th marks the beginning of something new and different – a leap into the unknown, much different than our career paths before 2011. We spent the first year of [...]
With the Super Bowl right around the corner, football fanatic or not, it is hard to escape the constant advertisements for the traditional snacks that come along with the celebration. Whether you are planning a party to root for your favorite team, going to one, or just grocery shopping and finding yourself reaching for pre-made chicken wings and red-bagged potato [...]
Fat has been shunned in the American diet as the culprit for our obesity and heart disease epidemics. Unfortunately, these epidemics are still poorly managed and research is showing that the linear thinking that fat makes you fat is incomplete. In fact, the average woman is 20 pounds heavier today than she was in 1970. Rather than focusing on avoiding [...]
QUESTION Just wondering if a person should experience anything when switching to this type of lifestyle? I recently started incorporating more raw food eating on top of a clean low gi diet. I’ve been feeling great but noticed when I eat certain foods I have sharp stomach pains. Wondering if you can provide any feedback. Thanks. – Claudia ANSWER Hi [...]
