The Reading Corner: Podcast Edition

February 29, 2012 By 6 Comments

The Reading Corner is a periodic series where I share interesting articles from around the web plus must-read books. Pull up a comfy chair and get ready for some fun and interesting reads!

For this edition of The Reading Corner, we’re going to venture into a “book on tape” category rather than my typical selection of blog posts and books. A while back, Meghan from Whole Natural Life wrote about how she keeps herself entertained while in the kitchen. One of the ways is by listening to podcasts. I had tried this a while back when I first started on GAPS, but I needed to listen on headphones since my hubby was working from home at the time.

I’ve been seeing the book, Could It Be B12? by Sally Pacholok and Jeffrey Stuart, mentioned around the web as of late.  The title defnitely intrigued me since, as I have mentioned in the past, I have often had low B12 levels and have taken B12 shots on and off over the past 5 years.  After seeing the authors listed as speakers at this past year’s Weston A. Price conference and reading an interview with Sally Pacholok on Real Food Forager, I decided it was time to pick up this book and read it. [Read more...]

The Reading Corner is a periodic series where I share interesting articles from around the web plus must-read books.  Pull up a comfy chair and get ready for some fun and interesting reads!

For this Reading Corner, I’d like to share some great posts about the fake foods that we are inundated with in our supermarkets.  These aren’t real foods and should be avoided!  As I continue to delve further into the world of traditional, nourishing foods, it becomes more and more eye-opening as to the deception that is taking place in our modern, processed foods.  Buyer beware!

The Reading Corner: Changing the Paradigm

November 18, 2011 By Leave a Comment

The Reading Corner is a periodic series where I share interesting articles from around the web plus must-read books.  Pull up a comfy chair and get ready for some fun and interesting reads!

For this Reading Corner, I thought I would share a few interesting articles to help challenge the old paradigm of how we look at food and eating.  As I have continued to delve into the world of traditional food and GAPS, it amazes me how differently I look at what is healthy and what should be included in a nourishing diet.  Here are a few articles that I have read recently that demonstrate my changing paradigm.  Happy reading!
