Because I enjoy hiking, I use a lot of trail references, and a certain intellectual pursuit can be a lot like a short or a long hike—possibly even a strenuous one. Keeping our minds sharp, developing interests, and exploring intellectual curiosities are part of multidimensional health. Again, just one small piece of a big puzzle.

For the past 20 years I have been pursuing various ideas and books on different aspects of health, now focusing mostly on nutrition and mental health. But I also enjoy history, so I went through a Romanov stage and, as my friends know very well, a a Theodore Roosevelt stage. That one may not be over yet.

What is it that you are curious about? What are you researching? What are you questioning?

Health On,
Veronica

This week’s Info to Nibble On touches on a topic that has been part of my own life for a long time: the connection between diet and heart health.

As many of you know, Weston and I have been following a plant-based diet for 18 years. I don’t believe there is only one path to health, which is why I rarely make that the centerpiece of my work. But preventing heart disease has always been one of the reasons I chose this way of eating, especially after witnessing heart attacks in both my grandfather and my mother.

In this week’s note I share a podcast conversation featuring Rip Esselstyn, whose work on nutrition and cardiovascular health we have followed for many years.

If you are curious about the role diet may play in preventing—or even reversing—heart disease, this one may be worth a read and a listen.

Sometimes health changes start with something small—like a few mysterious spots on your back.

In 2007 my husband had some red spots on his back that were diagnosed as tinea versicolor, and he was prescribed antifungals. A doctor in NYC put him on a candida diet and his spots went away. (It shows how far we've come since 2007, when we had to fly to NYC to find a doctor who would address the cause.)

While trying to figure out what was causing the spots, we stopped using dry cleaners. But slowly we started using their services again, until one day, before 2020, we ran into the man who ran the shop and he was almost unrecognizable: a bottle of chemicals from the shop had exploded into his face and arms.

Prompted by that sight, we started looking into the chemicals used in dry cleaning. The most common one is perchloroethylene (PERC), a petroleum-based solvent used to remove stains. It is considered a possible carcinogen and has been associated with nervous system, liver, and kidney toxicity. Residues of these chemicals can remain on fabrics and off-gas into the air in your home.

So it has been roughly six years since we stopped taking our clothes to dry cleaners (with the exception of suits).

Is it a pain, especially in the winter, to iron all the shirts? Absolutely.

But when you realize that everything your skin touches ends up interacting with your body in some way, it starts to feel worth it. Many stains can be treated at home, and choosing plant-based detergents and simple cleaning solutions goes a long way toward reducing everyday chemical exposure.

Do you still use dry cleaners?

Our circadian rhythm — the internal clock that guides sleep, energy, and focus — prefers consistency. Even a small shift in our sleep window can ripple into the following days, influencing mood, concentration, and overall energy.

A gentle reminder to support your rhythm this week: get morning light, move your body, and allow a little extra wind-down time in the evening. Your biology will thank you.

Time. Time is what makes a weight-loss journey successful.

Does your method, pill, or diet stand the test of time? Did you gain the weight back in six months, a year, five, or ten?

Weston has had quite a weight-loss journey. Almost 20 years ago, in his mid-20s, he was advised to start taking statins. If someone begins taking statins in their mid-20s, what does that mean for the next 60 years of their life?

But Weston chose a different path. He changed his lifestyle, lost 70 pounds, and became an example of grit and persistence for others to follow.
Some of the people close to him still struggle with the idea that he succeeded. That reaction, of course, is a reflection of their own fears, doubts, or lack of persistence than about the person who did the work.

is sharing Weston’s story to inspire others. You can pick up a copy of the magazine anywhere magazines are sold—and while you’re at it, try some of those delicious recipes as well!

Health On,
Veronica

I am often asked: How long does it take? Do you write meal plans? How many sessions would I need?

And my answer is… well, it’s not that simple. But this is how I counsel..

This video shows you the culinary journey of one of my clients. I don’t like before-and-after pictures because they can be faked, and they don’t show the struggle. For all we know, someone could have had bariatric surgery or used Ozempic.

I, however, focus on long-term, lifelong habits.

In this food diary, pay attention to how the quality increases and the quantity decreases (less the fiber, of course).

I’m incredibly proud of this client — it has been a strong year. I usually work with clients for six months, but with some, I work longer.

To book a discovery call where we can determine whether we’re a good fit, DM me or visit twinleafwellness.com.

Just a gentle thought — everything our food comes into contact with eventually becomes part of us. It can be helpful to pay attention to our kitchen supplies the same way we do to our ingredients.

I’m not affiliated with this brand, simply sharing something I value about the ingredients and environmental impact.
