    Anti-Inflammatory Herbal Tea Recipe

    For many years I lived with Hashimoto’s disease. Thinning hair, weight gain, and extreme fatigue were my “normal.” Autoimmune conditions have skyrocketed in past years, not just thyroid issues. What do these conditions have in common? They’re all accompanied by inflammation! While recovery is a multifaceted approach, anti-inflammatories are a great way to help the body regulate itself and heal. Even if you don’t have an autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis or irritable bowel disease, you can still experience chronic inflammation. Osteoarthritis, when the joints wear down, can cause inflammation too. And inflammatory conditions can cause a cascade of other issues,…

    Herbal Multivitamin Tincture Recipe

    I shared my homemade chewable vitamins for kids (or adults) in the past. While that’s definitely the crowd favorite at our house, I also wanted to share my herbal liquid multivitamin tincture.

    Are Oxalates A Problem or No Big Deal?

    There’s no shortage of nutritional advice out there, and many experts tell us entire food groups are bad. Vegans advise against animal products, while carnivore followers warn against grains and legumes. Yet, leafy greens seem to be universally praised. When it comes to greens, the more you eat, the better off you are, right? Not necessarily. Compounds called oxalates in leafy greens and other foods might make us think twice about how much we eat. What Are Oxalates? Oxalates (oxalic acid) are natural compounds found in many plant foods but are also produced as a waste product by the human…
