Imagine starting each day with renewed energy, a clear mind, and a body that feels strong and resilient. The 12 Gifts of Health is a transformative, step-by-step journey designed to help you resolve health concerns, enhance longevity, and lay the foundation for lasting vitality. True change isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about releasing what no longer serves you and embracing habits that nourish and restore. This journey is an opportunity to discover what truly supports your well-being and empowers you to thrive. Lasting health isn't achieved overnight; it’s built through gradual, meaningful changes. To transform your health and unlock vitality, the most crucial step is removing highly processed foods from your diet. True healing can't occur when the body is overloaded with artificial ingredients, preservatives, and inflammatory compounds.

If you could make one dietary change to set yourself onto a new trajectory of health, it would be to consume a nutrient dense breakfast consisting of high-quality protein, fiber, and healthy fats. A nutrient-dense, high-protein and fiber-rich breakfast will help you curb cravings for foods you are working to stay away from, boost your metabolism, balance your blood sugar, help regulate your circadian rhythms, keep your mind sharp during the day, and increase satiety. Setting achievable goals that you can build upon sets you up for the most success as it gives your body and brain time to rewire. Dietary change quite literally creates new biochemistry in your body that takes time to get used to. Creating this nutritional memory starts with removing processed foods from your diet. Too many changes at once can overwhelm the brain and nervous system, making the new diet or lifestyle modifications unrealistic to maintain.

The definition of the word whole is “a thing that is complete in itself.” When we eat foods in their whole form we get all nutrients, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in perfect balance. These compounds act synergistically to orchestrate all reactions in our bodies. When some nutrients are missing, the body cannot function properly, and when many nutrients are missing for an extended period of time, the body can become diseased. Obesity, chronic inflammation, food allergies, infertility, and many other diseases stem from the body being starved of essential nutrients lacking in a processed foods diet. The chemical composition of food, its vitamins and phytonutrients, sends signals to our cells designating how the genes will express themselves; this means that every time we eat we tell our bodies which genes to turn on, and which genes to turn off. Did you know that there is more gene expression within two hours after eating than any other time of the day?

Your body is composed of over 30 trillion cells, each of which is continually listening and responding to environmental signals. Your cells have antennas embedded in their cellular membranes. This is how your cells listen, relay messages to your DNA, and respond to your environment by activating biochemical processes. The food you eat carries information, which the antennas sense, and then tell your cells how to behave. You either turn on your anti-aging, disease-prevention, and anti-inflammatory pathways or you turn on your inflammatory, aging, and disease pathways with every bite of food.

When embarking on any new diet plan, it's essential to organize your kitchen with several key pieces of kitchen equipment. These items will make meal preparation go smoothly and help you have success on your diet. Many of the recipes in our membership portal utilize a food processor, high-powered blender, and Instant Pot to cut down on time spent in the kitchen and assist you in making delicious, nourishing meals. Additionally, having several high-quality knives will make all of the chopping and slicing much more enjoyable! In this post, you'll find key pieces of equipment to prioritize adding to your kitchen to make meal preparation more efficient and enjoyable. 

What is one way to decrease inflammation, improve gut health, upregulate detoxification, and increase insulin sensitivity? It is to consume more brightly colored fruits and vegetables daily! Sometimes the busyness of life prevents us from adding in the recommended number of servings of fresh fruits and vegetables we need each day. That's where smoothies come in. Adding everything to a high-powered blender makes it much easier to consume what you need in a delicious way! This red antioxidant smoothie is something I make several times per week. The smoothie contains raw red cabbage, several different types of low-glycemic frozen berries, avocado, citrus, and a red polyphenol powder to help boost the overall phytonutrient content.

Meal planning is one of the most powerful steps you can take toward reclaiming your health and well-being. Without a plan in place, it becomes easy to fall back into known habits and routines. Each new meal you prepare begins to create a foundation for lasting health, shaping your future self. Whether you plan every meal in advance or leave space for spontaneity, having some sort of plan in place reduces stress, minimizes reliance on processed and inflammatory foods, and allows you to stay aligned with your health goals. This simple yet transformative practice allows you to shift gradually, stacking small, sustainable changes that ultimately lead to profound shifts in how you feel and function. Meal planning can sometimes feel overwhelming, but with a little strategy, you can create delicious, well-balanced meals starting with ingredients you already have.

Try this Mediterranean Sheet Pan Chicken Dinner on your next busy night—it might just become a go-to favorite!

The Mediterranean diet has gained global recognition as one of the healthiest eating patterns, consistently ranked among the best diets for overall health, longevity, and disease prevention. Rooted in the traditional cuisines of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea—such as Greece, Italy, and Spain—this diet emphasizes whole, nutrient-dense foods, including fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, lean proteins, and heart-healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil. Decades of research have shown that the Mediterranean diet is linked to a lower risk of chronic diseases, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cognitive decline. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich food choices help protect against oxidative stress, support brain function, and promote gut health. 

The clean eating diet offers a simple, sustainable approach to nutrition that prioritizes real, whole foods and encourages a deeper awareness of what you’re putting into your body. Whether you’re aiming to reduce inflammation, maintain a healthy weight, improve digestion, or simply feel more energized, adopting a clean eating lifestyle can help you reach your goals. And the best part? It’s not about strict dieting, calorie counting, or deprivation—it’s about making conscious food choices that support your overall well-being. This guide will break down the fundamentals of clean eating and provide practical, easy-to-follow tips to help you transition seamlessly into a healthier way of living.

Food is powerful medicine for anti-aging and disease prevention because it directly influences cellular pathways that regulate health and longevity. Nutrient-dense foods provide bioactive compounds that reduce oxidative stress, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction—key drivers of aging. Polyphenols and omega-3s activate sirtuins and AMPK, enhancing cellular repair and autophagy. Phytonutrients also combat DNA damage and epigenetic aging, helping to extend both lifespan and healthspan while reducing the risk of chronic disease.

Transitioning to a new way of eating—whether to manage food sensitivities, support gut health, or reduce inflammation—requires careful consideration of ingredients and meal structure. Planning ahead ensures you have the right foods on hand, making it easier to stick to your dietary guidelines without feeling overwhelmed or tempted by off-diet options. It also allows you to experiment with new recipes, find enjoyable alternatives to familiar dishes, and create a sense of stability during a period of change. By mapping out meals in advance, you can set yourself up for success, making healing and nourishment both achievable and sustainable. For those undergoing dietary changes or using food as a tool for healing, meal planning becomes even more essential.

Chia pudding made with real food ingredients is a powerhouse of nutrients—especially important for growing, active children! This nut- and dairy-free pudding recipe is rich in polyphenols, protein, healthy fats, fiber, complex carbohydrates, calcium, and magnesium. In fact, one serving contains over 13 grams of protein, 29 grams of healthy fats, 31 grams of carbohydrates, 10 grams of fiber, and over 230mg of calcium! Chia seeds also have a high antioxidant activity due to their high levels of various polyphenols. Not only can this lower inflammation throughout the body by reducing free radicals, but polyphenols also act as pre-biotics in the gut, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria!

I love super easy meals on busy weekday evenings, don't you? This recipe (including the variations below) is one of my go-to weeknight meals. I wanted to share it with you because we all could use more ideas on how to create doable, nourishing family dinners. I love to serve this baked chicken and potato dish with a big green salad or some sort of raw kale salad. I know potatoes have received a bad rap for years, but did you know that potatoes contain high levels of potent antioxidants similar to levels found in dark cherries, strawberries, plums, and apples? In fact, the darker colored potatoes like the purple varieties contain the highest level of antioxidants....not surprisingly!

Even though it may be winter, you can still eat the colors of the rainbow and give yourself a hearty dose of powerful phytonutrients! Consuming these deep red, magenta, and orange colors you see in this salad means that you are flooding your body with plant chemicals that prevent DNA damage, stimulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, block substances we ingest from becoming carcinogens, and of course mop up free radicals. If you haven't worked with fennel before then you are in for a treat. This delicious vegetable adds complex flavors to this salad. I love eating it raw but it's also delicious braised or roasted!

Roasted root vegetables make the most quintessential side dish to a holiday meal, however, with the addition of a brightly flavored, antioxidant-rich parsley-basil pesto, the root vegetables are elevated to the next level! Celeriac (celery root), carrots, parsnips, and yellow potatoes form the base of this recipe. After they are cooked, the roasted vegetables are tossed with a flavorful dairy-free pesto. Did you know that by consuming flavonoid-rich herbs, such as parsley and basil, you help to regulate your blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and balance your immune system? Fresh herbs, such as parsley, are concentrated sources of powerful flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of potent phytonutrients (phyto = plant).

Flaxseeds are a powerhouse of nutrients and fiber that help feed your beneficial gut microbes, reduce inflammation, regulate your digestive system, improve cardiovascular health, and help normalize blood sugar levels. This healthy muffin recipe uses 1 ½ cups of flaxseed meal, in addition to a small amount of oat flour and a cup of wild blueberries to pack in the nutrients! The soluble fiber found in plant-based foods is essential for increasing gut health and longevity. 

Panang curry is one of my favorite types of Thai curries. It is deeply flavored with spicy chili paste, hints of lime, and a nutty richness from the peanut butter. It is best to find a good quality panang curry paste for this recipe. Look for one at your local food co-op or health food store. Panang curry paste is typically made from Thai red chilies, shallots, lemongrass, garlic, coriander, galangal (Thai ginger), kaffir lime peel, cumin, and sea salt. If you would like more protein, feel free to add some cubed tofu, cooked chickpeas, or cubed halibut to the curry. If adding fish, add it when you add the broccoli and zucchini as it only takes a few minutes to cook.

Full body health begins with the little things we do every day. Did you know that incorporating fresh herbs and spices into your meals adds thousands of flavonoid compounds that benefit your health and the health of your microbiome? Flavonoids from plant foods have been found to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, are protective against neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration, and help prevent a wide range of cancers. Fresh basil, cilantro, mint, parsley, rosemary, thyme garlic, turmeric, and ginger are herbs and spices that can easily be incorporated into your daily meals. Not only do these herbs brighten the flavors of the final dish, but they add an abundance of phytonutrients that reduce inflammation and prevent disease! 

I really love being able to toss ingredients into my slow cooker in the morning in order to have a meal ready to go later in the day, don't you? There's just so much less stress, and I feel so organized, with a clean kitchen going into dinnertime! This recipe for tomato-free, paleo slow cooked beef can be used in a multitude of ways. If you don't want to stuff it into baked sweet potatoes then you could use it as a taco filling for corn tortillas, Brown Rice Flour Tortillas, or simply served with sautéed kale and cabbage!

Looking for an easy, nutrient-dense meal you can make at the end of a long day? This simple sheet pan meal uses garden vegetables and wild salmon, and it can be prepped and cooked in under 30 minutes! Salmon is a rich source of a carotenoid called astaxanthin. This potent compound is also found in crab, shrimp, lobster, krill, and salmon eggs (roe), however, wild salmon contains the highest concentration of this potent anti-inflammatory compound.

Sometimes the deepest healing doesn’t come from adding more—but from letting go. When we release what no longer serves us, we create the space our body needs to restore balance and begin to heal. The remove phase of the elimination diet process invites us into a rare and sacred moment: a pause. Not just from inflammatory foods, but from the unconscious patterns and loops that have kept our bodies in distress and our minds disconnected from our inner knowing. This isn't about lack or restriction. It’s about reverence. The kind that allows us to create space for healing, listening, and nourishing ourselves on every level. Letting go can stir up more than just cravings. It can awaken grief, uncertainty, even identity questions. You may find yourself asking: Who am I without my morning coffee? Without that glass of wine to unwind? Without the comforting foods I reach for when life feels overwhelming?

Have you ever wondered if gluten could be silently sabotaging your health—affecting your digestion, brain, skin, hormones, or immune system—even if you’ve never been diagnosed with celiac disease? You’re not alone. More and more people are waking up to the realization that their daily discomforts—like bloating, fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, joint pain, migraines, or stubborn skin issues—might not be random…but rather connected to something as simple and foundational as what’s on their plate. Gluten is often viewed as harmless unless you have a medical diagnosis. But emerging research—and the powerful healing stories of those who’ve removed it—tell a different story. For some, gluten is just another protein. But for others, it’s a daily trigger for immune disruption, systemic inflammation, and a slow, quiet breakdown of the gut lining.

Food is more than just fuel—it’s emotional, cultural, and deeply tied to our daily habits. But for many, it also becomes a source of addiction, keeping us stuck in negative cycles of cravings, energy crashes, and emotional eating. Processed foods, high in sugar, unhealthy fats, and artificial additives, are designed to hijack our brain’s reward system, triggering dopamine releases that make us reach for more, even when we know they’re harming our health. Letting go of food addictions isn’t just about willpower—it’s about breaking free from old patterns and stepping into alignment with your future self. Over the years, one of the biggest struggles I’ve seen during the elimination diet process is the difficulty of letting go of foods that have been part of one’s daily diet for years—or even decades. The cravings for sugar, gluten, dairy, and processed foods can feel overwhelming, and ironically, they often get stronger when we try to break away from them.

Embarking on an elimination diet can be a transformative journey toward better health, helping you identify food sensitivities, reduce inflammation, and improve digestion, energy levels, and overall well-being. But for many, the biggest challenge isn’t deciding to start—it’s knowing how to stick with it. Success with an elimination diet isn’t just about what you remove; it’s also about having a solid plan in place so that nourishing meals are always within reach. Without structure, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, unprepared, or tempted to fall back into old habits. But with the right meal planning strategies, you can set yourself up for a smooth and sustainable experience, allowing you to focus on the healing process. In this guide, I’ll walk through the essential steps to help you navigate meal planning for any type of elimination diet.

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic symptoms—digestive discomfort, brain fog, fatigue, joint pain, skin issues, or any number of persistent health concerns—you may have wondered whether the foods you eat are playing a role. The truth is, what you put on your plate can either nourish your body or contribute to inflammation and imbalance. This is where an elimination diet becomes a powerful tool for self-discovery and transformation. Embarking on an elimination diet can feel overwhelming at first—figuring out what to eat, ensuring balanced nutrition, and staying motivated are all key factors in success. This is where Nourishing Meals® becomes an invaluable tool in your journey.

Autoimmune diseases are on the rise, affecting millions of people worldwide and leaving many struggling with unexplained symptoms, chronic pain, and fatigue. While genetics play a role, emerging research highlights the profound influence of environmental factors—especially diet—on the development and progression of autoimmunity. The foods we eat can either calm inflammation and support immune balance or trigger immune overactivity, leading the body to mistakenly attack its own tissues. This means that every meal is either contributing to healing or fueling disease. The connection between food and autoimmunity is powerful, and for those suffering from conditions like Hashimoto’s, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or inflammatory bowel disease, dietary changes can be life-changing.

Food has a profound impact on our health, influencing everything from digestion and inflammation to energy levels and mental clarity. But for many, certain foods can trigger unwanted symptoms without them even realizing it. An Elimination Diet is a structured approach to identifying food sensitivities and intolerances by removing common trigger foods for a period of time, then systematically reintroducing them to observe how the body reacts. Unlike food allergies, which cause an immediate immune reaction, food sensitivities often create delayed or chronic symptoms that can be difficult to pinpoint. These reactions may manifest as digestive distress, fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, migraines, skin conditions, sinus congestion, or autoimmune flare-ups.

There are three different ways food can create inflammation in the body. The first is eating foods that are inflammatory, such as fried foods, highly processed and packaged foods, foods that contain rancid oils and fats, and highly processed meat products. The second way is by consistently eating too many sugars and carbohydrates for your body. High blood sugar can create a cascade of inflammatory events. The third way food can trigger inflammation in the body is by consuming foods your immune system has been primed to react to, which is called a food sensitivity. A food or food group that may be healthy and anti-inflammatory for one person could be the source of a lot of damaging inflammatory chemicals for another person.

Making your own gluten-free brown rice flour tortillas is so simple! With just a few ingredients you can make healthier tortillas at home. My recipe is egg-free and xanthan gum-free as well. I use a cast iron tortilla press to quickly press all of the tortillas, and then I cook them in a hot cast iron skillet on my stovetop. If you don't own a tortilla press you can roll the dough in between two pieces of parchment paper using a rolling pin. I've made so many versions of this recipe to try to figure out the best method for getting flexible tortillas.

I've got an easy, nourishing main dish recipe for you today! These Nightshade-Free Chicken Tacos are super easy to prepare and perfect if you are following an elimination diet, nightshade-free diet, or another special diet such as an autoimmune diet. My children also love this recipe! The chicken taco filling is cooked in a slow-cooker making the prep time less than 10 minutes. I like to serve the taco filling with my Plantain Tortillas (pictured here) or my gluten-free brown rice flour tortillas. The filling is also wonderful served inside of a baked half of a kabocha or delicata squash, topped with greens and sprouts of course!

This flavorful green soup uses simple ingredients to create a nourishing meal that can help support natural detoxification. It is designed for Phase 1 of our Elimination Diet, but of course is a wonderful addition to your weekly meal planning even if you are not on the elimination diet! The Elimination Diet is not a diet that tells you what is good for you and what is not. It is a process that helps you discover what foods work best for you. We are all unique. There is no one way of eating or one perfect diet that is right for everyone. Even Hippocrates noticed this well over 2000 years ago.

We all need very easy recipes to stay on track with dietary changes. I have found that the number one thing necessary to maintaining any healing diet is to be able to easily throw together nutrient-dense meals in minutes. Having easy recipes that contain a balance of vegetables, protein, and fat will help you maintain your diet and heal. It's easy to grab what's convenient when you are hungry, and that's why I recommend stocking your fridge with a snack to help curb those cravings, as well as a few soups or stews that you can reheat for lunch, and keep recipes like this one on hand that can be prepped and cooked in less than 30 minutes.

There comes a moment, often disguised as discomfort, when you know it’s time to change. Time to stop shrinking into old patterns that once kept you safe, but now keep you stuck. Time to step over the edge of the known and into the luminous unknown where real change begins. But if you’ve ever tried to shift your diet, a habit, a thought loop, or a way of being that feels like second nature, you know how hard it can be. Your mind may long for transformation, but your nervous system clings to the familiar—even when it no longer serves. This isn’t weakness. It’s biology. Your brain is wired to protect you—to favor what’s known, what feels safe, what conserves energy. It stores habits—of thought, behavior, even self-talk—like well-worn trails in the forest. Walking a new path requires effort, repetition, and, most of all, self-love.

Our bodies are always speaking to us. And at some point, the signs become too loud to ignore. We wake up tired. Our digestion feels off. We are holding on to extra weight. Our skin flares, our moods swing, and we barely recognize the energy we once had. We know we aren’t eating the way we should—but we also don’t know where to begin. It all feels overwhelming, so we keep putting it off. And eventually, we begin to wonder...“Is this just how I’m supposed to feel now?” When your body feels inflamed, tired, bloated, or foggy—despite your best efforts to eat well—it may be a sign of hidden inflammation quietly impacting your energy, digestion, and clarity. Through a therapeutic, whole foods-based approach, the Anti-Inflammatory Diet offers a powerful path to restore balance by removing common food triggers, calming the immune system, and nourishing your body at a cellular level.

Every day, millions of people walk through life carrying symptoms they’ve come to normalize: bloating after meals, fatigue that never lifts, skin rashes, joint pain, brain fog, chronic sinus issues, or relentless anxiety. They reach for antacids, pain relievers, or other quick fixes—attempting to silence the body’s signals instead of pausing to ask what those symptoms are truly trying to reveal. Every symptom is a doorway into reclaiming your health and your life. They are not signs that your body is broken—they are signs that your body is speaking. That something within you is asking to be witnessed, nourished, and healed. Meet your symptoms as an ally to your growth and healing. Food sensitivities are not merely about "cutting out the wrong foods." They are a sign that the inner terrain—the gut, the immune system, the nervous system—is asking for restoration.

If you're walking the path of healing, there's a moment when you begin to see that what you remove from your diet isn’t just about restriction—it’s about making space for deeper nourishment. With each new nourishing food choice, you are rewriting old patterns. You are actively reshaping the story of your health. You are rewiring your body and brain toward the state of vitality and well-being you desire. So as you begin to explore new food swaps for old, familiar favorites, remember that with every bite, you are powerfully shifting your internal chemistry. You are turning down inflammatory pathways. You are turning on healing and anti-aging pathways. And you are creating a future self who feels more vibrant, resilient, and at home in your body.

Yesterday evening, I taught another live cooking class on the anti-inflammatory diet, and as always, it was an incredible experience to connect with so many people in person. It’s inspiring to witness the motivation and commitment in the room as individuals step forward to reclaim their health through food. Whether someone is just beginning their journey or has been fine-tuning their diet for years, the process of making dietary shifts is both deeply personal and transformative. These classes remind me that healing isn’t just about learning new recipes—it’s about stepping into a new way of being, one that aligns with the health, energy, and vitality we all seek. But making these changes isn't always easy. Letting go of familiar foods and habits can feel like shedding an old identity, especially when certain foods have been a daily part of life for years—or even decades.

When embarking on any new diet plan, it's essential to organize your kitchen with several key pieces of kitchen equipment. These items will make meal preparation go smoothly and help you have success on your diet.

Are you in the process of removing dairy from your diet and searching for a rich, creamy alternative to swirl into your morning beverage? This simple cashew-based creamer might be just what your body and taste buds have been craving. While I don’t personally drink coffee, I love adding this luscious cashew creamer to my turmeric-ginger spice tea, dandelion root chai, roasted dandelion root tea, and matcha lattes. It blends beautifully into warm drinks without overpowering them—unlike coconut milk or cream, which can sometimes have too strong a flavor for delicate herbal beverages.

Learn how to make the most delicious, anti-inflammatory turmeric-ginger broth—one that not only warms your body, but soothes your nervous system and stimulates healthy digestion from the inside out. I love adding chopped fresh turmeric to chicken soup, but this recipe takes the turmeric content and bioavailability to a whole new level. I’ve created a richly nourishing broth that uses both fresh turmeric and dried, powdered turmeric, layered with warming ginger, healing aromatics, and nourishing fat to support your body’s healing pathways on every level. This isn’t just soup—it’s liquid gold for your gut, immune system, and soul.

I'm excited to be sharing this amazing apple crisp recipe with you today. It's made with prebiotic-rich tigernut flour, which is a healthy, grain-free, nut-free, gluten-free flour.

Having alternatives that are just as tasty as your old favorites can make it much easier to stick to your new diet.
