The pH Miracle audiobook continues to sell like alkaline hotcakes since Scott and I announced it on Facebook last week. In case you missed Scott's story, you can read or listen to his incredible journey with cancer here. You can also read my more humourous account of how we came to narrate Dr Young's book here. We will begin recording the second book in the series some time in the next couple of months. I can't wait! It really has been quite a magical journey the last six months, and we are so grateful for our loyal readers and listeners, as well as the unwavering love and support from our beloved friends and family, who embraced our seemingly bizarre "green" liquid lifestyle with gusto and enthusiasm -- proving to be a glorious (and...

This almond milk kefir strawberry smoothie is one of my favourite kefir smoothies, and was a lifesaver for me when I was transitioning from stage one of The Body Ecology Diet. Yesterday, I posted my super easy recipe for raw almond milk kefir. and shared how including this plant based kefir, along with coconut water kefir, cultured coconut pudding, and fermented vegetables help to rebalance my inner eco system and restore my optimum health and vitality.

Not only is this vegan kefir smoothie loaded with healthy probiotics and plant based nutrients, it is gluten free, dairy free, egg free, soy free, and sugar free, and tastes absolutely spectacular. This smoothie is also perfect... Keep Reading
Are you including probiotic-rich foods in your diet? Including coconut water kefir, cultured vegetables, and this raw almond milk "kefir" yohurt has helped enormously to rebalance my inner eco-system, and restore my health and vitality.

I will share these recipes in the next couple of months. Those of you who have been following me for a while would be familiar with my life-long battle with candida. You can read more about my personal story here. But, just briefly, I had tried every anti-candida diet known to man, and nothing really worked until... Keep Reading

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Scott and I had a SPECTACULAR thanksgiving week in NYC. I had intended to post recipes last week, but the wifi in our building in NYC wasn't working, and alas, I had to keep playing instead of working. It was a hardship. LOL! Here's a recap.. We enjoyed a SENSATIONAL gluten free, vegan, thanksgiving lunch at Candle 79. The food was absolutely exquisite, (as usual) and an added bonus was seeing my beautiful friends JL and Gena from JL Goes Vegan and Choosing Raw enjoying the sumptious plant based feast! We then took a lovely stroll through the streets of Manhatten looking at the pretty Christmas lights, before meeting up with our dear friends from Australia, Kat and Wayne, for a Japanese banquet...
