Fast food is not good for you, and you know this. It’s filled with fat and other unhealthy things that make us fat, unhealthy and kill our immune systems. Yet we continue to consume this food on a regular basis. We eat it often and we love it. Jack in the Box is a guilty […] More

It’s so similar in packaging and appearance to lettuce (so I learned one night after arriving home from the store to my husband asking me where to find the lettuce and pointing out I bought cabbage), but it’s far healthier. Some people consume cabbage quite regularly, and others don’t eat it as much as they […] More

Most everyone loves Five Guys Burgers and Fries; it’s hard not to. After all, who doesn’t love burgers and fries in general? This all-American food is so good and so worth every bite, even though we all know that the health and nutrition you find here is practically non-existent. We can’t remember the last time […] More

If you think that potbelly is just a name of a pig, you are mistaken. It’s actually the name of a restaurant that serves many different items, and it’s a place that might have a bit more to offer in the nutrition department.

Who has time to make a lunch every single morning or even the evening before? We all have kids and jobs and things to take care, and we all do a terrible job of prioritizing our own health when we make up that whole to-do list we handle on a daily basis. But that’s just […] More

There is nothing quite like a big country-style breakfast. Perhaps it’s growing up in the south (well, Florida) that makes this such an important meal in our lives, but big breakfasts on the weekend are something we just can’t deny. We love good health and nutrition, but we also love biscuits and gravy, stuffed French […] More

However, the fish also contains something called Omega-6 Fatty […] More

That moment when you sit down for a picnic lunch in the park with a group of women and your children and you open up your kids’ lunchables only to realize that half the other moms have pulled out their personalized veggie sandwiches made from scratch and all organic meals; and you hand your kid […] More

Being a person who suffers from health issues is exceptionally stressful, and it is even more stressful when you are someone whose health issues are food-related.  Many people suffer from food-borne allergies, from illness associated with certain items and others from certain ingredients in items.

Fast food is not known for its overwhelming nutritional value, if we are all honest. It’s known for being convenient and cheap, and for being the answer to the busy parent’s busy schedule. It means we don’t have to cook. It means we don’t have to bother with things we don’t care for. It means […] More
