For the past 15 years I have been blessed with the most amazing health. After multiple health challenges in my 20’s, I turned to holistic medicine and began this amazing journey of recognizing my body’s natural ability to heal; and embracing a diet and lifestyle that supports the way our bodies were designed to live.
The remarkable results that I experienced further encouraged me to leave a career in clinical diagnostics and pursue an education as a holistic practitioner. Fast forward a few years and Pure Nutrition + Wellness was born.
This week, I have asked my Practice Assistant, Vicki, to share with our clients about something new on the horizon. I hope you’ll be inspired!
I first met Donna as one of her clients in early 2015. I was very sick and had been struggling with a number of serious health issues for some time. A good friend suggested that Donna might be able to help me, and actually called Donna for me.
Every once in awhile, we crave a perfect little treat. Who doesn’t, right?
So, when we found these delicious little Chai Spiced Energy Balls at Mind Body Green, we knew we had found something special! Yum!!
We hope you give them a try. Will these be your new favorite snack?
The weather is starting to warm up, and we are craving fresh, spring vegetables!
You might want to give this a try…either on your grill outside or a stovetop grill pan indoors!
Inspired by Paleo Fresh, this recipe for grilled artichokes is an adaptation of the recipe found here:

Nothing tastes more like Springtime than a luscious, lemon pound cake.
And when families and friends gather to celebrate special occasions, having fabulous recipes that allow us to indulge a little while maintaining our healthy approach to eating is an absolute necessity.
This recipe comes from Paleo Newbie, and you’re just going to love it for special occasions!!
This week, in continuing with our focus on colon health, we will briefly discuss food sensitivities. Often people confuse food sensitivities with food allergies or food intolerances. While all of these can cause unwanted symptoms, they actually effect the body in very different ways.
A true food allergy is a very specific type of immune-mediated response to a particular food. It is known as a Type 1 hypersensitivity, or an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity. Essentially, the individual’s immune system reacts adversely to the proteins in a food via a specific antibody pathway. This immune system activation results in the classic “allergy” symptoms: from the minor runny eyes, stuffy nose, and hives, all the way to a full anaphylaxis response that can be life-threatening. We all have a friend who can not go near peanuts, eggs, strawberries or some type of food because of the obvious and severe reactions that occur.
