Snap Peas & Green Beans: Yes, Pick & Eat, No, Not Paleo

Green beans and snap peas…pick them and eat them, straight from the garden!   A great, healthy, Paleo snack, right? Wrong. Remember, all beans contain anti nutrients (lectins & saponins), which bind to vitamins  & minerals, preventing us from being able to reap all their benefits.  In addition, the anti nutrients contribute to increased intestinal […]

Paleoista Approved- Fruit at the Finish Line

What a nice surprise I had this morning.   My husband and I popped into a local 1/2 marathon, the NYC Runs Father’s Day Race, and guess what they had there? Yes, they had the typical Gatorade on the course and the post-race bagels (incidentally, even if I weren’t Paleo, the idea of a dry, […]

Fish Oil- Liquid or Tablets?

The one supplement I feel comfortable recommending to nearly everyone is a high quality fish oil. Of course, you can certainly get what you need if you eat plenty of wild salmon, wild black cod and wild Arctic Char, but since fish oil is so indicated for so supporting so many functions in the body, […]

Low Fat Donuts with No Guilt- Great! Just What We Need!

Paleoista Approved…It’s About Thyme

NYC, you never fail to amaze me.  This past week I dined at yet another (unspoken) Paleoista approved place, with a great price point and easy to get to location. And, pardon the pun, but it’s about thyme. Local Thyme, a pop up on 40th & Madison offers menu options so true to Paleo, without […]

Juice Cleanse? Or Just Juice?

When one of my clients told me he’d lost 18 pounds in three weeks using a Juice Press Cleanse, I was a little skeptical. Even more so after he told me that, not surprisingly, after he finished the trial, all the weight came back, and then some. I’m sure he’s not the only one who’s experienced […]
