The Most Important Question to Ask

June 12, 2013 by Denise Leave a Comment

The most important question to ask yourself if you want to start eating in a healthier way is this: How can I add more colorful vegetables?  Adding more vegetables to your meals means more nutrients and fiber and getting full on fewer calories. Its as simple as that. You will feel better, lighter and very […]

100 Little Calories is All it Takes

May 12, 2013 by Denise Leave a Comment

So many people come to see me upset, having gained a steady pound or two a year for the past 10 years or so. They feel like failures, are worried about their blood pressure or cholesterol, and don’t know how to turn it around. Do you know what that pound or so a year really […]

Vegetables Greek Style!

May 7, 2013 by Denise Leave a Comment

This technique for cooking vegetables will entice even the most veggie-hating people in your group to try them.

I thought so, but the research being done by Brian Wansink, Ph.D.’s team at Cornell University proves its true. We eat with our eyes, and […]

Forget Resolutions, Just do This

A Calorie is NOT a Calorie

June 4, 2012 by Denise Leave a Comment

More and more research is disproving the theory that “a calorie is a calorie, regardless of the source.” This is no surprise to many of us, who can tell by anecdotal experience that people who eat really well – and by this I mean whole, natural foods – don’t really have to count their calories […]
