1. Some say that using fluoride is important because it helps discourage cavity formation. However, according to the World Health Organization, fluoride doesn’t actually make a difference in cavities. What does help take care of your teeth is brushing well (whether you’re using toothpaste or just wa…

Ever wonder what GMO stands for? Generous Mother Octopus?... Giant Mating Orangutans? Hmmm. Check out my latest blog post to find out.

Americans, in general, have been left a bit in the dark about what GMOs are and about their effects on us. Which foods are contaminated and how bad are they for us to consume? Hopefully, this will help shed some light on the subject and create some much-needed awareness.

"There is a subtle way that we have of waiting for something to come or waiting to get rid of something we have (even in the case of extra body weight, for instance) and thinking that our real life will begin then.

As we let ourselves live fully in present awareness, it is as though we are experiencing life at last. We are no longer waiting." - Catherine Ingram

As a professional dancer (and just as a health-conscious person!) I drink a lot of water. I have various water bottles scattered around the house and a couple at the dance studio that I drink from throughout the day. I have a couple of glass water bottles that are my favorite because I think they ma…

Happy Valentine's Day! This is usually a holiday to show love for someone else, but I thought I'd send out a reminder for people to show love for themselves too! Let's join in on the movement to encourage self-love.

I have a big dream (some may even say lofty) that I want every woman to love the skin they're in. Yep, every single drop of who they are. This may sound like a tall order, but I believe it's possible.

The Super Bowl is this Sunday! While I really enjoy going to football games and I don't mind watching the games on TV and I am a big supporter of my husband who lives for the sport, let's be honest: my favorite part about the Super Bowl is the food. So, I've started planning for the event by shopping the web for some recipe inspirations! Here are some that I've found that look like healthy, but yummy options to help us celebrate football... or whatever the Super Bowl is about. :)

Happy Wednesday! If you haven't already, check out my website to see my new blog post: "My Dentist Appointment - the Outcome!" Drum roll, please!

Ugh. I had prepared myself for this news, but I was still disappointed. Unfortunately, what disappointed me more was the reaction from the dentist when he heard what I had been up to regarding my oral health.

If you eat animal protein, I'd like to challenge you to find a local farm to buy it from! It feels so good to eat food that has been grown and raised in a happy and healthy environment! (And it tastes better too!)
