This post will soon appear as a guest blog for Crohns.net.Desserts are challenging for anyone who is concerned about their health, and especially for someone with gut issues! That said, dessert at the end of the meal can be a lovely ritual for a holiday or special occasion, and add a feeling of completeness to a meal. What’s Wrong with Dessert?

Zucchini Oatmeal Cookies

Zucchini Oatmeal Chip Cookies with Sprouted Flour

July 27, 2015 | BY Maia James

My CSA delivered another boatload of zucchini this week, so I had to come up with a way to get my kids to eat them. Here’s what did the trick, and it included no white sugar and some sprouted flour to boot!This recipe will make a bunch of cookies (50ish). I took half the batter, wrapped it in non-toxic wax paper, and put it in the freezer. Then, any day we want cookies, I just slice some

Good Stuff About the Paleo Diet

July 7, 2015 | BY Suzanne Weaver-Goss

In the 40-plus years that I have been studying and experimenting with diets and dietary recommendations, I have come to believe that no diet or rigid set of recommendations is sustainable or even appropriate for everyone. Humans have complex biological systems that constantly change over time.In my health coaching practice, I help clients listen to their bodies, experiment, and take the best

When Will My Pre-Pregnancy Jeans Fit Me?

January 15, 2014 | BY Maia James

My second son is 6 months old, and I'm just about back to my pre-pregnancy weight. I think it happened slightly faster this time, probably because instead of lying around nursing and stuffing my face, I'm schlepping two kids around the city for all of the four-year-old's activities. I found the following journal entry on my first postpartum experience, when several months in I was still far from

How to Get Off of the Sugar Seesaw

October 12, 2013 | BY Maia James

I know two things for sure about sugar. One is that it is toxic (I'm not being hyperbolic--that's really the word health experts are using these days), and two is that I love it and need it after every meal (until recently, anyway). My parents, both of whom are certified Holistic Health Coaches, just returned from Montpelier, Vermont, where they conducted what they call a “Sugar Blues”

February 14, 2013 | BY Maia James

This post originally appeared in our blog on The Huffington Post.If you're a parent in 2013, you probably own a baby carrier or two. We've got a Moby, an Ergo, a BabyHawk and a BBslen, all of which were well-used during Felix's infancy and toddlerhood. (OK, I lied -- I could never get the hang of the BB Slen, even though I desperately wanted to be one of those Brooklyn moms who

What’s the Ideal Diet? (and a Carob Mousse Recipe)

June 9, 2012 | BY Suzanne Weaver-Goss

--By Suzanne ("Nana")As you know by now, I am a health food geek as well as a professional health coach. I am often asked whether I'm a vegetarian or a vegan or macrobiotic or a raw foodist or into raw dairy or the blood type diet or grass-fed beef, or....The short answer is yes! I am all of those things! And more. So Which Diet Is the Right One?! My nutritional philosophy is a moving

Essential Eating in Action

September 19, 2011 | BY Suzanne Weaver-Goss

-By Suzanne (AKA "Nana")Usually when I prepare for a vacation, I head to our local natural food store and stock up on good-for-you groceries that I know might be hard to find in an unfamiliar town. Okay…I also usually stop at a local brewery for a few six-packs of organic beer and the wine store for a couple of bottles of Sauvignon Blanc or Champagne. A Sober, Sprouted Vacation This year,
