Early Spring has begun in the Washington metro area. Temperatures are rising and the threat of a snow fall is diminishing.
Lighten Up with FRESH foods!
The change in season should also bring about a change in the types of food we eat. Winter is a time for warming foods like soups, stews and casseroles. Spring lends itself to lighter fare that helps the body to cleanse and rejuvenate itself ~ vegetables, lean proteins, leaves and fruits.
The body cleanses or goes through a detoxification process via the liver, lungs, kidneys, bowel, lymph system and skin on a daily basis. We can help that process along in several different ways, but most important, in my view, is by taking out the foods that don’t serve us (processed food) and by including the foods that our bodies respond to in a favorable way (real foods).

How many parties or holiday events are you attending this season?
Do you have a plan for what to do when you are faced with a plethora of sweet treats and drinks?
In the spirit of good health habits, here are some tips on navigating the holidays so you enter the new year without the guilt (and extra weight).
Parties and Events
- Plan to ask for water first thing - there are so many ways in which we dehydrate ourselves from soda to alcohol, so water is an excellent way to start the evening.
- Eat a small snack before you go out to a party or event to prevent over indulging (and make sure you have these healthy snacks at home). Avocado, thin slices of turkey or chicken, and nuts are good choices.
