- About Me
- My name is Crystal and I decided to do a blog to talk about my struggle with Lyme Disease, what helped and didn't help, and to share how important it is what we put into our bodies. I just recently updated new information. Through my 3+ year illness I learned so many things that I would love to share with you! I found a good fit for me was an 80% raw diet, gluten free, and detox, detox along with treatments. I want to see you feeling good and living your true potential so you can live your dreams!

Funny Food For Thought:
I was just thinking today how funny it is that when I think about the junk foods I used to eat, I now don't even crave them because I know how processed and modified all those foods are. Not to mention what they do to your body and overall health. I guess sometimes it takes getting sick to change your way of thinking and open your eyes. At least for me this was the case. I thought I ate good, but little did I know! Now I know there are lots of yummy foods that are healthy and an array of spices and flavors. Eating more of a raw diet doesn't mean all you can eat is salads. Through learning how to make new things when I was forced to make a change, now I have a passion for good food and to encourage people they can do it too!

Hello friends! Thanks for coming to my blog!
Your body is a temple! Don't poison it! Eat raw alkaline and superfoods. Eat organic, fresh, raw unprocessed,-grass-fed meats. Try to get your food at your local farmers market(organic certified). No pesticides- grass fed beef is best! Starting in October I will be ordering meat and other great foods from a Beyond Organic, a new company by Gordan Rubin that is going to provide the purest foods on the planet! For more information you can visit my page called Beyond Organic.
Try to eat no refined sugars, flours, or vegan junk food. There are now so many gluten free alternatives, but be careful and read the labels! Read sugar content, trans fats, chemicals, and artificial sweeteners, MSG, ect. There are so many great sugar substitutes that I have found taste even better! Coconut crystals are a great sugar replacement when baking and coconut syrup, coconut butter, agave nectar, raw honey, and brown rice syrup. Start experimenting and try some of my gluten-free cookie recipes! Delicious!!
