My diet has always been a big focus in my life since I used to struggle with migraines and IBS. I really wanted to figure out what the cause was instead of just taking medicine to numb the pain. I attended school at Bastyr University majoring in Holistic Nutrition and Culinary Arts and it has changed my world. I realized processed sugar, processed flour, processed foods are what were causing my health issues. I now eat whole, fresh food and I’m telling you from the bottom of my heart that it has made a huge difference in my life. It’s not about fixing anymore, it’s about prevention. I truly believe the diet is one of the main causes for many chronic diseases. You really are what you eat. I love the phrase, “If it doesn’t have a mother or come from the ground…don’t eat it.” Ban the processed foods out of your diet and start feeling whole again!
Let’s eat clean, let’s eat whole, let’s eat balanced~
Let’s eat to nourish!

Hi Julie, You look great as usual! I was excited to find your site. I have been trying to change our eating habits for many reasons, one of which is for our son. He has been having health issues and we are awaiting the test results for Crohns disease. Whatever the outcome, I know eating whole fresh foods will be best for all of us! Thanks for all the great information!
Tammy!!! How have you been? Long time no see!
Oh no. That doesn’t sound good. Please let me know how I can help. Yes, eating whole, fresh foods will help a lot. You might want to start cutting out dairy if you haven’t already. However goats milk, cheese, and yogurt doesn’t seem to bother the intestines and actually some people think it can cure crohn’s. I found this out when visiting a goat farm! Do you know any certain foods that trigger his symptoms yet?
Email me at Eat2Nourish@gmail.com. We can talk more about this and I would love to help however I can.
Great to hear from you!
