Great Tasting Food Should Be Great For Your Mind and Body, Too
Hey, Everyone!
Let's find some very practical ways of making sure that what you buy, prepare and eat is healthy...it is important that you get the most "bang-for-your-buck" out of your food dollars.
There are several ways you can stretch your food dollar. Instead of eating out, you can prepare healthy meals very quickly and very inexpensively. Also, you can go on a virtual shopping trip with me. One nice thing about a virtual shopping trip is that it doesn't cost any money! I wish real shopping were like that. The idea is to show you that healthy food is less expensive, easier to prepare and can taste delicious. Today, there is this rumor that "if it is good for you, it must taste really bad." That is simply not true. That's what I want us to chat about.
Do you ever wonder how in the world you can separate nutrition and diet facts from all the quackery out there? Simply click on this picture, to find out how:

You can find columns I write for The Medical Examiner and for Verge Magazine on this website:
Questions People Have Asked Me About Food
There are no products being pushed and I received no financial support for writing these columns or the book or even coming to speak to you.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to be successful at changing your eating behaviors? If so, you may be interested in this article: What Does It Take To Make Permanent Lifestyle Changes?
Feel free to message me on Facebook. It would be great if you "friended" or "followed" me...that way, you can ask me questions and you can read my answers to other people's questions.
