Learn how these nutrition changes can improve the skin condition Hidradenitis Suppurativa in PCOS

Eating better is a BIG priority for me right now. I'm looking at healthy alternatives to all our favorite meals and snacks, preparing new recipes to ensure we eat more balanced meals, and eating a lot more organic (and a lot less processed) foods. I expected a lot of resistance from my family. When my son wondered why his sugary cereal was replaced with a healthier organic one, I showed him the grades each got on the Fooducate app by scanning the bar codes with my smartphone. It was like a lightbulb went off and suddenly, our oldest son was a lot more accepting of the alternatives I was presenting. I wanted to take his understanding further. We read a wonderful book by Cath Senker, which supports the changes I'm making in our family's diet. It was a great introduction to food groups and explained, in simple terms, how food can help you be healthy or be bad for you, depending on your choices. It also introduced my son to what it means to be a vegetarian and touched briefly on food allergies. Once we were done with Senker's non-fiction work, I gave my son his own book to complete. Download this book free here. Print the first two pages, flip over and run through the printer again to print the remaining pages. Staple the spine. I created this book after conducting loads of research with what I believe are credible sources (e.g. WebMD, Livestrong, and Mayo Clinic). Keep in mind, though, I'm not a dietitian. The book examines fiber, sodium, and sugar. Kids need to figure out how much of each is recommended daily, then complete an activity that tests their newfound knowledge. I won't lie, some things required additional explanation, but my son's questions told me I'd found a way to pique his curiosity. "Popcorn has fiber!" he exclaimed. "Maple syrup is natural sugar?" "If 575 milligrams is 1/4 teaspoon of sodium, then 1,150 must be 1/2 teaspoon, right?" Amen! He wasn't just reading the book, there was comprehension. To test it, though, he grabbed three pre-packaged snacks from the pantry and completed the following worksheet. His choices were graham crackers, fruit strips, and pretzels. We looked at the labels to find how many grams or milligrams of fiber, sodium, and sugar were present in each. He referred back to his healthy choices book and filled in the recommended daily amount. Then we used the percentage calculator at math.com; find it here. Download a PDF of this worksheet here. "Whoa, Mom! How could you buy these? They have a LOT of sugar!" he said looking at the fruit strips. Mission accomplished.

We were invited to a BBQ this weekend. While I haven't started my Whole30 yet, I still have a few food rules I never break. I always, always avoid nightshades. What are nightshades? Nightshades are a family of plants (Solanaceae) that include: potatoes peppers tomatoes tomatillos eggplant goji berries These plants contain a toxin that can cause joint pain and inflammation in people who are sensitive to it. Most people with autoimmune conditions notice a decrease in pain and inflammation when removing these foods from their diet. For me, it was a huge step forward in healing when I discovered I was sensitive to nightshades. So back to our BBQ and my dilemma. My hubby was asked to make his amazing salsa. Not wanting to miss out or feel deprived, I decided to try making my own nightshade free salsa. Here is the winning result. Nightshade free Salsa (AIP Salsa) 1 Mango 1/2 medium Red Onion 7-8 Radishes (depending on size and how spicy you want your salsa to be) 1 bunch Cilantro 1/2 medium Jicama 2 cloves Garlic, minced 1 lime, juiced Salt to taste Chop mango, red onion, radishes, cilantro and jicama. Add minced garlic, lime juice and salt to mixture. Let mixture sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or over night! Enjoy!
