Let’s Talk Calories & Weight Loss

by Kathleen Minihan · Jan 25, 2021

The voluntary ability to override our own hunger and satiety queues is limited. In other words, we don’t have as much control or “willpower” over our dietary intake as we have been led to believe. Our bodies need a specific number of calories to function optimally and when we fail to meet those energy needs our body fights back.

by Kathleen Minihan · Mar 9, 2020

The science is there, eating a diet abundant in plants is beneficial for both your health and the environment.

The New Facts

by Kathleen Minihan · Jan 20, 2020

Have you checked out the nutrition facts on your favorite food products lately? If you have, you may have noticed a few changes. Over the past year, food companies have been slowly updating their products to be in compliance with the new FDA regulations. While many food companies have made the change over, you will probably notice that many products still carry the old facts label. The initial deadline for the new labeling was January 1, 2020, but those companies that make less than $10 million annually will have another year to comply with these new regulations.

Thanksgiving is a time to come together around a delicious meal, with the people you love, and celebrate all that you are grateful for.

Back To School: Healthy Lunch

by Kathleen Minihan · Sep 30, 2016

It’s that time of year again… time for the kids to head back to school. And with the change in season comes a new routine kicked off with back to school shopping and packed lunches. Packing a lunch for our young scholars can be a daunting task at times, what with various school food rules, food allergies and aversions, and the pressure to keep the meal healthy and appealing. But driving us forward on this crusade to pack a superior lunch is the knowledge that a nutrient-packed meal is essential to a successful school year. While there are a variety of different components that contribute to the academic success of our students, the one element that is consistent across the board is proper nutrition.
