Getting Healthy, Saving Money, and Living Well
So today I’m continuing the story of my looong path of trying to get fermented foods into my diet.
In Part One of Why I Don’t Have Fermented Food on My Blog, you read of my ups and downs with gut health and itching and my basically throwing in the towel numerous times as I tried to add these “health foods” to my diet–
–and failed time and time again.
I can be really stubborn.
About some things.
Seeing as Whole New Mom is a blog that mainly talks about health and related topics, you may be wondering why I’ve never done a post about fermented foods.
No posts about:
and all that cultured stuff.
Read on to find out why–and hang with me. This is one of those longish posts with lots of info.
Have you been thinking about signing up for the 6 Weeks to Gut Health Course, but are still on the fence?
I’ve got an exclusive coupon code for my readers that just might “nudge you off the fence.”
I am so excited about this course that I asked Lydia (the instructor) if I could offer my readers a discount to enroll. And I was so glad when she said “yes.” [Read more...]
Digestive health is a big topic these days.
People are talking about digestive enzymes, probiotics, the GAPS, SCD, gluten-free and candida diet.
Truth is, our digestive systems are a big deal and people are starting to pay attention.
I mentioned in the First 25 Reasons Why Breast is Best that I started this series to point out the many benefits of breastfeeding aside from it being a food.
There’s been a lot of stir in the whole food community about breastfeeding maybe not being the best option out there.
Here is where this is all coming from….
UPDATE (4/14/12): I have an exclusive Coupon Code for my readers. Email me at wholenewmom at gmail dot com or use my contact form and I can give you the code.
Probably you’ve heard somewhere along the line the quote from Hippocrates, “All Disease Begins in the Gut.”
It sounds a little “over the top,” but in many ways, it is true.
More and more information is coming out all the time, showing just how important our digestive tract is to our overall health.
Today I am continuing my series on gut health and candida.
I honestly didn’t even plan for this to be a series. I just started writing about something that I’m passionate about–and look what’s happened.
I’m back with another installment of Whole New Mom Answers Your Questions.
I so love hearing all of your thoughts and questions. I feel honestly inadequate to answer them sometimes, but I will for sure do my best.
And I hope that all of you super sharp readers will chime in with more information on all of the great questions that were asked…
So…..here goes with your great questions from this week!
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted a Q&A post, but finally here’s another one.
This week, we’re tacking questions on Eczema, Sunscreens, Natural Sweeteners, and more.
I’ve so wanted to be able to be a resource to others and just love how the health posts have turned into a help for so many (and how I’ve been helped by so many of your comments as well!
My family has been through so much from:
We’ve also been through a lot financially–mainly trying to “make it” on a single income (that is well below six figures 
), with a special needs child, with medical expenses and well . . . things aren’t getting cheaper now, are they?
Anyway, I’ve always had a passion to share, but it’s a lot more efficient to share on the internet than just be word of mouth.
So Whole New Mom was born.
My desire with this kind of post is to field questions on any topic (within reason ) that you might like to ask:
.)I can’t promise that I’ll know the answer, but I’ll try my best 
.
And then all of you can just chime in the comments section and we can all help each other out.
So–ready? Set? Let’s go!
(Oh–and you can e-mail your questions to me at wholenewmom {at} gmail {dot} com. Just put “Whole New Mom Answers Your Questions” or “WNM Answers” in the Subject area so it catches my eye more quickly!)
Today’s questions from readers like you are….
My baking habits sure have changed over the past uh…more years than I care to count.
What used to seem healthy to me (low fat whatever that was sweet) is now a distant memory.
We’re all in different places on the path towards healthy eating.
But to nudge each of us a little further in the “healthy eating” department, I’ve put together a simple list of 4 Tips for Making Healthier Desserts that will help you remake your favorite recipes into “New and Improved” versions.
You can hopefully take this list and still enjoy some treats while making them better for you.

I’d love to hear what you think either here or there !
