By now, most people are at least vaguely aware of the diabetes epidemic that has been sweeping the globe. We hear it on the news, read about it in magazine articles, suffer through countless pharmaceutical advertisements and most of us know at least one person struggling with the constant finger pricks and insulin shots.
Among the most common reasons I hear for why people are hesitant to make healthy changes to their diet is that eating healthy is too expensive. While it is true that fresh, quality products are more expensive item for item than processed, low-quality, “fast” foods, most people would be surprised how many ways there are to save money and still eat a healthy, whole and clean diet.
Nutrient Dense – Whole Food – Lasting Energy – I absolutely love this turkey chili recipe. It’s light and healthy just as the name suggests, but also very hearty and satisfying. It’s full of protein and fiber to keep you full, lower in fat because of the turkey and down-right delicious. It makes the perfect dish for a cold winter evening, a family gathering or game-day!!!
Let’s face it; more than a few people just flat out hate exercising.
I can’t tell you how many people I’ve worked with that would rather swallow a pail of nails than jump on a treadmill for a sweat session. And honestly, I get it.
I love this workout because it can be done in the comfort of your own home. This is perfect in a time crunch, when traveling (easy in a hotel room) or when you just don’t feel like thinking during a workout.

This delicious and nutrient dense black bean quinoa recipe is an absolute favorite in my household, and I can’t wait for you to taste it for yourself and see why!
It’s very easy to get discouraged when you finally wake up one morning and realize that you have gained a significant amount of weight, your health is circling the drain and you desperately need to make some lifestyle changes. For some people this is a very frightening and dreaded realization.
