✨ Winter comfort food doesn’t have to leave you feeling heavy or bloated.

Today on Fox 13’s The Place, I shared Winter Warm-Up Meals for a Happier Gut—simple one-pot recipes using squash, root veggies, citrus, and herbs that help calm digestion and keep you feeling grounded all season.

A few favorites from the segment:
• Butternut squash + ginger soup
• Lemon and Rice Chicken Soup
• Cozy lentil + veggie bowls

Warm, nourishing, and gentle on the gut.
If winter tends to flare your digestive symptoms, it might be time to look deeper—I help clients uncover the root cause with functional stool testing and personalized nutrition.

You don’t have to “start over” in January.
The truth? Your gut can thrive right now — even through the holidays.

From stress and travel to sugar and late nights, the season can throw digestion off fast. But with the right strategy, you can enjoy the season and feel your best doing it.

This month’s blog shares practical, gut-friendly ways to stay balanced through stress, travel, and treats — without restriction or guilt.

🦃✨ Thanksgiving is almost here, which means… delicious food and a lot of heavy dishes that can leave your gut feeling less than grateful.

If you want to enjoy the feast without the bloat, here are a few of my favorite gut-friendly holiday swaps from my segment👇

✔️ Cauliflower Mash instead of heavy mashed potatoes
✔️ Gluten-free wild rice stuffing in place of traditional stuffing
✔️ Homemade cranberry–orange relish (sweetened with honey or maple)
✔️ Mini pumpkin custards or parfaits instead of pumpkin pie

And don’t forget the simple things that make a big difference:
🥗 Start with a small salad
🍲 Add a broth-based soup
🌿 Include a fermented food (even a spoonful!) to support digestion

Small, intentional choices that help you enjoy the holiday and feel good afterward.

🌿 NEW BLOG: Prebiotics — The Missing Piece in Your Gut Healing Plan 🌿

If you’ve tried but still struggle with bloating, fatigue, or “off” digestion… the problem might not be what you’re taking — but what you’re feeding.

Prebiotics are the food that fuel your good gut bacteria. When your microbiome gets the right kind of fiber, everything changes — energy, focus, mood, and yes, digestion.

In my latest blog, I break down:
✨ What prebiotics actually are (and why they’re not the same as fiber)
✨ Why probiotics alone often don’t work
✨ How stool testing + nutrition coaching create a personalized plan
✨ Simple ways to start feeding your gut today

Did you know over 90% of your serotonin—the “feel-good” neurotransmitter—is made in your gut? That means when your gut is off balance, your mood, focus, and energy often are too.

This week on Good Things Utah, I shared how fall foods like pumpkin, apples, squash, and dark chocolate can help feed your gut and your mind. 🍂

Your gut and brain are in constant conversation—and what you eat plays a major role in how you feel day to day.

If you’ve been feeling low energy, anxious, or just “off,” it might be time to look deeper at what your gut is telling you. Functional stool testing can reveal the root causes behind mood and digestion issues—so you can finally feel like yourself again.

Halloween doesn’t have to be scary for your gut — when you feed your microbiome well, you feel better from the inside out.

👉 Bloating, brain fog, sugar cravings… or even ADHD symptoms? (face palm emoji) What if it’s not “just you,” but your gut sending SOS signals?

This month’s blog is all about the root cause behind SIBO, Candida, ADHD, and autoimmunity — and how inflammation ties it all together.

✨ It’s not about quick fixes. It’s about real, lasting results.

👻🎃 Halloween doesn’t have to mean sugar crashes and tummy aches.

Today on KUTV’s Fresh Living, I shared Gut-Friendly Halloween Treats that are festive and functional—perfect for kids with food sensitivities or families who want to skip the scary side effects of candy overload.

We featured:
✨ Pumpkin Energy Bites (fiber + protein for steady energy)
🍯 Candy Corn Fruit Kabobs (fiber + healthy sugars)
🍎 Monster Apple Bites (fun, allergy-friendly, and packed with fiber)

One of my favorite parts of this work is showing families that you don’t have to take away the fun—you just have to get creative with real food.

🌿 Does your child’s “nervous stomach” say more than you think?

Back-to-school season can be tough—new teachers, new routines, and big emotions. For some kids, that stress shows up not just in their mood… but in their digestion.

👉 Frequent stomachaches before school
👉 Meltdowns over homework
👉 Trouble focusing in class
👉 Mood swings or restless sleep

These aren’t “just nerves.” They can be powerful signs of the gut-brain connection at work.

The good news? Supporting your child’s gut health with simple nutrition and lifestyle changes can calm both their mind and their digestion.

💻 I just published a new blog:
“Anxious Stomach? The Gut-Brain Connection You Need to Know”
Inside, I share:
✨ Why stress shows up in the gut
✨ Signs your child’s digestion may be affecting their mood
✨ Natural ways to support the gut-brain connection this school year

Let’s help our kids feel calm, confident, and ready to thrive in school—naturally. 💛

🎒✨ Back-to-school season means it’s time to rethink those lunchboxes!

On Good Things Utah, I shared Back-to-School Lunches That Support Kids’ Gut Health—because what kids eat affects so much more than just digestion. A healthy gut supports mood, focus, immunity, and classroom success. 💡

One mom I worked with saw her 5-year-old go from constant stomachaches and meltdowns to thriving in Kindergarten—all by making simple, gut-friendly swaps.

🥩 Turkey & kraut roll-ups = protein + probiotics
🥕 Veggie-packed muffins = hidden carrots & zucchini
🍯 Probiotic fruit dip = yogurt, honey, cinnamon

And here’s the good news: it doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing. Start with one swap a week and watch how your child feels change for the better.
