How are you? It’s the most wonderful time of year, right? There’s parties to host, marshmallows to roast, cards to send, and those last minute goodies to bake. Oh its feeling a lot like Christmas! Shall we all sing? I used to think that is was the holiday stress that made my PMS worse. Who […]
Depression and Menopause – Part 3
This week is my third and final installation (for a while) about menopause and depression. If you missed the first one click here. It’s almost Christmas and I think time to move on to a little holiday cheer. But, boy is this post relevant to me this week. I struggled as I learned that I’ve […]
Love your Man? Feed his Prostate
I’m taking a little break in our regular women’s programming to ask you… When’s the last time you talked to your husband, brother, father or any male person about their prostate health? I know its kind of a funny subject, right? We often hear people say I’m on a “heart healthy” diet but I’ve never […]
Depression and Menopause – Part 2
This post is focused on addressing the connection between depression and menopause.

How to Survive the Holidays Without Gaining Weight
Ho! Ho! Ho! Heidi here. Well, it’s that time again (National Eating Season) and despite my promises to cut the calories and trim the fat, Thanksgiving came and the turkey wasn’t the only thing that ended up stuffed. Ugh!

How Toxins Make Us Fat
Hello my friends! Heidi here. How are you? I’m a little sad this week because I’m not fitting into my jeans. Sadly, I’ve gained more weight this year than the last three years combined. Oh, I know stress is a culprit and so are my changing hormones but Stephanie’s post last week got me thinking […]
Women Apply 500+ Chemicals a Day
Did you know that the average woman applies over 500 chemicals to her body every single day? I certainly didn’t and when I heard this information during a television news broadcast this past week, I thought the reporter must have made a mistake. There is absolutely no way that I am in some way applying […]
10 Ways to Tame Your Cortisol
Saturday, as Eric and I rode our bikes down the sandy sidewalk in Huntington Beach I saw a sign in a store window that said, “Smile—it’s good stress relief and makes you happier.” So I smiled. I smiled at Eric. I smiled at the little boy who ran right in front of my bike, and […]
Is the Stress Making You Fat?
Well, hello. How are you? I’m okay…just a little stressed this week. Thanks for asking…or reading. I didn’t realize how much stress affected our life until I learned how much it affects our weight. I’ve always been a calorie counting kind of gal. As a nutritionist I know almost everything about how food effects health. […]
