🚀 Superfood Energy Bites—straight from one of our students!

Monica tried a treat at a local juice bar, loved it, and said, “I can make a healthier version at home.” A few spins in the food processor later, these power-packed bites were born: sweet, chewy, protein-rich, and loaded with good fats and minerals. Perfect for lunchboxes, post-workout munching, or that mid-afternoon slump.

Give them a whirl, stash in the fridge, and thank Monica for the inspiration. 🌿✨

Nut & Fruit Balls by Monica L.

Looking for a healthy bread to jump start your year? Here's a delicious, healthy recipe our graduate, Angella Mendenall, MH tailored from Katri Nordbloom's alkaline cooking. Enjoy!

Buckwheat Bread

Ingredients
3 cups raw buckwheat flour - I blend it into flour in my Vitamix then put flour in a bowl.
Blend 4 carrots (medium to large) with 3 cups water, and a half of onion.
Place blended water, carrots, and onion into bowl with buckwheat flour.
Add: 2 tsp salt, 1/2 onion, 1 tablespoon Costco no salt organic seasoning
Oil a pan well
Bake at 375 degrees for 30 min
Salt the top of the dough very lightly after it is in the pan for an added little kick of taste.
This recipe makes two 9x9 pans. Cut recipe in half for smaller batches

Variations

I add fresh herbs like:
1 tablespoon rosemary fresh (or thyme, marjoram)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Topped with dried parsley

You can add beets to the base instead of carrots, or turnips, parsnips, any kind of onion or garlic for a change of taste or added flavor.

Mexican style: add jalapeños, or green chilies, small amount of beans, oregano, and chili powder

Sweet and savory: add a little honey, or pure maple syrup, raisins or any dried fruit or nuts of choice, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, or pumpkin spice.

Molasses for a darker and richer bread. With spices, ginger, cloves, and cinnamon.

More hints:
Freeze extras to use later

Make homemade croutons out of leftover buckwheat bread. Add olive oil and herbs and spices. Toss and bake.

💉 Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro—everywhere, right?
But what happens after the injections stop? And is there a better way?

🔑 Quick hits from Stephanie Anderson, MH, CN:
• GLP-1 drugs crank up the “I’m full” signal—but don’t fix why metabolism is off.
• When you quit, appetite rebounds, muscle may be lost, and weight often returns.
• Real change asks deeper questions: minerals, adrenals, blood sugar, sleep, stress, gut balance.

⚖️ Natural ≠ automatically safe. Even plant isolates (berberine, etc.) can override the body instead of rebuilding it.

🌿 Root-cause path: Holistic practitioners aren’t against people seeking relief. They’re simply advocating for approaches that align with how the body is built to heal: from the inside out, not the outside in.

🌟 Turmeric named 2026 Herb of the Year! 🌟

This golden root has been a staple in Ayurveda for millennia—and modern science finally agrees.

Why add a pinch of 🌱 Curcuma longa to your day?
• Antioxidant armor – curcumin neutralizes free-radical damage.
• Inflammation balance – supports joints, heart & overall wellness.
• Better together – pair with healthy fat and black pepper for up-to-20× absorption (thank you, piperine!).

Easy ways to glow golden:
1️⃣ Sprinkle turmeric + black pepper on roasted veggies & soups.
2️⃣ Whisk up “golden milk” (warm plant milk, turmeric, pinch of pepper, coconut oil, honey).
3️⃣ Choose supplements that include both piperine and a fat-based carrier.

Herbs work best when used wisely and in harmony with the body—turmeric is proof. ✨
