Favorites

This is a regularly updated resource of my favorite products, tools, foods, supplements, recipes, and even clothing that helped change my life as I healed and have supported a healthy lifestyle since. Some of these are affiliate links, and I appreciate your support.

the backstory

I made a change in what products I use one thing at a time starting in 2015. After replacing toxic body and household products with non-toxic ones, the biggest change I noticed was an obvious improvement in my time of the month—I went from taking 6 Motrin a day to none at all. And I haven’t taken any pain medication for it since. That is just one example of the huge benefits that can come from switching out harmful products for ones that are not. Living healthy doesn’t mean sacrifice and deprivation. Just simple, intentional swaps add up.

As for food, I adjusted my diet greatly in 2013 to heal my very sick gut. While I added many foods that I eliminated back in over time, many I’ve abandoned permanently because since I eliminated them, I learned that they’re not healthy, period (and I’m 0% sorry). So for the record, I still don't eat gluten, soy, refined sugar, peanuts, or chemically made fake-foods (like MSG).
