Shea Butter Lotion Bar Stick

September 25, 2014 by Katie Wells

I’m a natural skin care product addict. In college, my bathroom was filled with dozens of hair products, skin products and make-up that were likely filled with hundreds of chemicals. Natural Alternatives… Since switching to natural options, I still have dozens of personal care products in my bathroom (much to my husband’s frustration) but now …

Natural Toilet Cleaning Fizzies

September 23, 2014 by Katie Wells

Once upon a time, I made a few huge batches of my regular sea salt bath fizzies and postpartum bath fizzies as gifts for friends who were expecting babies. I kept a few of the ones that broke when I removed them from the molds and was planning to use them myself. I had them …

Is Coffee Healthy?

September 22, 2014 by Katie Wells

Like many things in health and nutrition, when it comes to coffee, the answer to “is coffee healthy or not?” is: it depends. I could easily write an entire blog post about all of the problems with coffee and I could just as easily write a post about why it is one of the healthiest things you can drink. …

Homemade Italian Seasoning Recipe

September 16, 2014 by Katie Wells

I’ve mentioned before my love of Italian food that started when I married my husband (his family is originally from Sicily) and I started learning to make his favorite dishes. Our transition to a grain free diet necessitated some substitutions and I started making recipes like chicken cacciatore with cabbage noodles, Meatza crustless pizza, one-pan …

Leaky Gut Diet – My Experience with GAPS & SCD

September 16, 2014 by Katie Wells

Ever since I wrote a review of the book Gut and Psychology Syndrome and mentioned that we used it to help reverse our son’s dairy allergy and behavior issues, I’ve gotten a lot of questions about what protocol we used and the specifics of how we did it. Our son made drastic improvements through using …

Avocado Mayo Recipe (Egg-Free)

September 15, 2014 by Katie Wells

I know, I know, by definition, mayonnaise is an emulsion of egg yolks, oil, and an acid such as lemon juice, but since I don’t do well with eggs and they aren’t allowed on the 30-Day Autoimmune Reset, I decided to experiment with an avocado mayo recipe. Most commercial mayonnaise recipes also have soybean oil …

Autoimmuni-Tea Coffee Substitute

September 12, 2014 by Katie Wells

I love coffee, especially when I make it with healthy fats and collagen, but there are times that I choose not to consume coffee (like during my 30-Day Autoimmune Reset). Why No Coffee? I’m not anti-coffee at all and there are many health benefits attributed to coffee. However, at times I find it is better …

Homemade Baby Balm Skin Cream Recipe

September 11, 2014 by Katie Wells

When I was pregnant with my first child, I was given literally 11 bottles of baby lotion by friends and relatives. The smell reminded me of my own childhood and I loved that it was a lotion specially formulated for baby. I figured all of the ingredients must be natural and safe since it was …

Is Protein Powder Healthy?

September 9, 2014 by Katie Wells

In college, I loved taking protein powder as a way to add in nutrients and calories without having to take the time to eat a full meal in the morning (spoken like a true type-A). I also loved making an iced latte with protein powder for breakfast. Obviously, protein powder is a super healthy choice, …

I’m happy to welcome Shaye Elliot to share a recipe I wish I’d had with my first few children. Enter Shaye… If only I had been wise after the birth of my first two children. Advil was …

I absolutely love creating seasonal real food recipes that are simple to make, and this is one of my recent favorites. Acorn squash is just starting to show up at our local farmer’s market and it is an inexpensive and nutrient rich winter squash. I wanted to find a recipe that would be simple and …

Deep Cleansing Mud Mask Recipe

September 5, 2014 by Katie Wells

Writing a book is stressful! It caused my first autoimmune flare in months and the first time I’ve had a skin breakout in years. I’m back on the autoimmune reset diet and my symptoms are all fading quickly, but to help speed up the skin healing, I’ve been doing my deep cleansing mud mask recipe …

Raspberry Vinaigrette Dressing Recipe

September 2, 2014 by Katie Wells

Raspberries are one of my favorite fruits. I love adding fresh raspberries to salads and eating them plain for a nighttime treat. We often buy fresh raspberries in bulk from a local organic farmer when they are in season and freeze them to use for the rest of the year. Frozen raspberries are an enjoyable snack on …
