There’s an unseen roller coaster that many of us are on each and every day. Some, ok most, of us are on the world’s one, and you know that what comes up will always come down. What am I really talking about? Blood sugar. If you haven’t heard the blood sugar balance, hypoglycemia, or hyperglycemia, you’re not alone. What you can likely identify with though is feeling moody; happy enough one moment, then low or […]
At times there are fads, trends, and must-tries that fly around the internet and social media and come up in conversations with friends and colleagues. Remember the Unicorn craze, followed by charcoal in everything – Black ice cream, lattes, burger buns, bagels, and waffles. Let’s be clear, that kind of trend isn’t one that truly up levels your health, and thank goodness it hasn’t stuck around. Healthy efforts, ways, and supplements can go from your […]
When was the last time that you were driving and someone cut you off at the last second at a light, or you were walking on the sidewalk and a biker whizzed by you, interrupting your peaceful walk and just pissed you right off to the point of being off about it for the rest of the day, or for even longer? I think I can speak for all of us shit happens, and when […]

If you’ve listened to this podcast and show before, you’ll know that I’m an avid weekly market goer, and I LOVE knowing where my food comes from.

Sneezes, coughs, droopy and tired looking eyes are all signs that some sort of infection has taken hold of your body. It doesn’t feel good, it slows you down, makes you stop when you don’t want to – or take medicines so you can keep going, but there’s no denying it, being sick sucks. What is it about the couch, blanket, comfort food and the TV remote that we gravitate towards, as opposed to doing […]

Locking eyes with another, whether in person, from a distance or on a screen creates the human connection that we all thrive on. Vision is a critical sense, and for us lucky enough to have it, keeping it for as long as possible is a worthwhile health effort. Much of what I talk about on EAT THIS with Lianne is for […]
Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food, is a very well-known and used phrase said by the Greek physician, Hippocrates.
