Welcome to the newly remodeled Butter Girl Goes Organic! A new place for me to call home; a place where I can now share with others my nutrition consulting services, healthy recipes and as always, my chatty narratives and thoughts regarding health, hope and happiness. It is here that I dream of helping and motivating others in their own journeys towards better health.
Me…in a nut shell:
I am a Nutrition Therapy Practitioner, published writer in the blogosphere, as well as a weekly newspaper column, enthusiastic foodie and now…a health warrior, bravely setting out to save the world.
So what is Nutrition Therapy?
Nutrition Therapy is part of a growing revolution in the fields of diet and nutrition, offering customized and highly effective natural approaches to each client’s individual needs. Nutrition Therapy is applied to the basic foundations of optimal health: digestion, blood sugar balance, mineral balance, fatty acid balance and hydration. Those foundations not working at their optimum, in time will effect: digestive wellness, hormonal health, mental well-being, endocrine function, blood sugar dysregulation, nutritional deficiencies…all things that ultimately affect our health and happiness!
Together we will sift through the ever changing sea of information regarding health and nutrition. There are mountains of opinions and documentation out there that seem to change…almost daily. One article tells us something is healthy and good for us and the next then tells us...oh wait...it isn't good for us at all! My inspiration is to take this complicated information, subtract the big words and stuffy stuff we don’t understand and share it with you in a simple and (always fun) approach.
We are all unique and beautifully made. Our bodies are a magnificently engineered machine. If one part of the machine is not functioning properly, then the rest of the machine will suffer. All systems are interdependent upon each other and if one isn’t working right…the whole system suffers. Together we will explore how you can achieve optimal health and happiness; perhaps through simple diet changes, exercise and/or nutritional supplements.
Statistics are astonishing as to the ill effects of today’s modern diet on society. Our foods are now full of ingredients that we cannot even pronounce. It is time to get back to the basics; properly prepared nutrient dense whole foods that our ancestors from previous generations thrived upon. I look forward to helping you embark on a journey towards a healthier, happier life!
