April 3, 2024

Turns out they can and they make them quite well if you land on the right brand for you. I didn’t expect the range of options to be honest. Like anyone, I love a good fitting jean. So I took to my research skills to scout out the best organic and sustainable jeans brands. Turns out, I already owned a pair without even knowing it.

This guide will help you navigate the best organic clothing brands available if you are shopping for some healthier pieces for your wardrobe. When it comes to organic living, it takes time to swap out all the different areas of your life. I don’t believe that an all or nothing approach is required to be successful and sometimes its about harm reduction versus complete purity. Clothing is something that could make a major impact on your health, because similarly to something like laundry detergent or deodorant, you wear it against your body every day.

Easy Gluten Free Tortilla Recipe

January 16, 2024

This Gluten free tortilla recipe is so easy to make. Couple that with the affordability factor and you’ll be hooked. The minimal ingredients in the tortilla recipe make it such a cost effective option. Stores often charge a pretty penny for anything “gluten free”. And if you’ve ever embarked on the GF journey, you’ll know that store bought items are just not the same. They always have a gummy consistency to them and are often highly processed. That’s why I always recommend that if someone is trying to avoid gluten, that they work on finding a good gluten free all purpose flour and a handful of easy recipes.

Health Benefits of Beef Liver & Organ Meats

January 12, 2024

You may have noticed the increase of chatter surrounding the health benefits of beef liver and other organ meats. The topic is trendy, the act itself is ancestral. It certainly can look like a trend when a topic gets a big wave of support throughout the wellness community. In some ways, sure, it’s “trendy” to discuss the nose to tail style of consuming animal meats. But, in actuality, consuming organ meats along with muscle meats is a traditional and ancestral way of eating. We have lost a lot of nutrient density to our diets by eliminating the nose to tail traditional way of eating. With the rise of chronic illness, it can be important to pay attention to what our ancestors did or didn’t do. They led healthier lives with less chronic disease.

Eating the whole animal can feel intimidating. But if we only consume muscle meat, we leave behind a plethora of nutrient density that is missing from modern day diets.
