“I like to move it” sang Reel 2 Real 20 years ago. (Yes. 20.) It’s such an awesome 90’s relic! Anyway, I think we can both agree on that exercise is good for you. Especially these health benefits should keep both you and me on the exercise train: Physically, exercise lowers the risk of heart […]
So, today I wanted to tell you some of my favorite food documentaries that are definitely worth a watch. These aren’t just good movies, to a certain extent they’re also provoking, sad and full of success stories, too. Tapped Food, Inc. Jiro Dreams of Sushi Super Size Me: an oldie but goldie: Hungry for Change […]
This week, you and I will go on a little bit of a time travel, back to last year and bring back a very valuable post. Enjoy! It’s summer, it’s vacation time (hopefully) which means (again, hopefully) traveling. But staying healthy while in transit is not always easy. You know exactly what it’s like […]
My posts lately have been super whiny. And I apologise for that. But sometimes life just gets in the way of everything (especially when you’re living with something like diabetes), and everything just feels like complete crap. So today I’ve (officially, of course) joined something I saw on the wonderful Paleo Chef’s Instagram page; […]
Unexpected numbers can come at you in any shape or form. A speeding ticket you definitely didn’t expect. The bill for your groceries (wait, what the heck did I just buy…? Gold?). Your phone bill after a month of especially exciting news, that clearly everybody needed to know (and sometimes Facebook just doesn’t cut it). […]
Everyone knows what’s good for you. Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig and all the “lose half your body weight in 2 days” people do, too; it’s their own product of course. But before this post turns into a random Piñata-alike bashing of things that can’t convince me of their efficacy, let’s just say it’s not as […]
Well. Have I got something super exciting for you today?! I thought that I usually yap on about scientific research, what to go for in terms of food, or even complain in my blog posts. And it’s always. So. Much. Text. Today I’m doing the opposite. Only pictures (well, almost only). To get to know […]
If you’ve been following me for a while, you might know a few things about me. Like that I strongly dislike the word “diet”. Or that I can’t get enough of asparagus. Or that I smear my face with coconut oil every day. Or that I have a few auto-immune conditions. But did you know […]
Ah, the years spent trying to find the perfect face cream. Either they all have too much of this and not enough of that. Or the other way around. Or they just plain old have too many chemicals in them. That’s how it was for me. I tried everything from drugstore brands, over pharmacy brands, […]
There is this one food I can’t get enough of right now! It’s a true multi-talent in terms of health benefits. (Yay!) And super versatile in terms of preparing it. You can fry it, steam it, boil it, broil it, grill it, mix it…. Endless! In this post, I’ll give you the low-down on my […]
