I’ve fasted, juiced and juice feasted for 78 days straight. I’ve eaten high protein, all protein, counted calories, eaten six times a day, cycled calories, cycled macronutrients, I’ve eaten Paleo & Autoimmune Paleo, I’ve done GAPS , I’ve given up breakfast and tried intermittent fasting…

If you visit this site often enough, you’ll come to realise that I’m not into fluffing around with all sorts of fancy, complicated recipes. So as is my style, this is a really simple, quick, dairy free ice cream recipe and it’s made with just four ingredients (plus extras if you want them!).

A recent (5 months ago) diagnosis of Pyrrole disorder (also known as Pyroluria, HPL, Mauve Factor and Kryptopyrroles) has, for me, truly been a blessing and it has put together all the pieces of what has seemed to be a huge, never ending, forever expanding puzzle that I’ve been trying to complete for a very long time.

I’ve made this Avocado Mousse a number of times now for different people and they just don’t believe it’s avocado!

It is a Chocolate Mint plant, named apparently more for its brownish tinge to the stems and leaves than anything. But nonetheless, it does have a slight ‘chocolatey’ undertone to it’s glorious pepper-minty flavour.

Watch this short video for an explanation of bio-magnification and the potential for damage to our health that it creates. For those looking for proof that organic is better, I believe that this is it. This one little piece of information can help us to truly understand why switching to organic is so important.

When I first started looking into Bentonite clay and using it, I, like many others, had been led to believe by information that I’d read online, that calcium bentonite clay was the only clay that should be used internally and that sodium bentonite clay was only suitable for external use. However, I have since learned the truth and that is that all bentonite clay is suitable for internal use…

Making your own coconut yogurt at home doesn’t have to be difficult, time consuming or messy. My recipe for coconut yogurt is super easy, super quick and super healthy! You can buy a yogurt starter from somewhere like…

I’ve always always had sweet tooth and I’m guessing I always will. Back in my ‘junk food addict days’ I used to eat lollies and lots of them, but these days when the sweet tooth rears its head I satisfy it with some sweet juicy fruit or occasionally something homemade, usually raw and delicious…
