The Real Deal: A Certified Nutritionist with a Background in Authentic Research

Image
Accurate nutrition informatin is so critical to your health that one must receive it from a reliable source with an education that includes critical thinking and focused research skills. With all the online "health coaches" or "not really a degree holistic nutritionists" you need a true advocate who is learned in seeking out authentic, science-based studies to translate accurate information.  Check out Erika Herman, author and certified nutritionist (as well as UCLA educated in Writing and Literature), to  help enhance your health and nutrition knowledge.  She is an articulate, expressive, and enthusiastic nutrition educator, with a sense of humor, as you can see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjQK2adjqto

Best Tasting "Bottled" Organic Salad Dressing

Image
I always make my salad dressings from scratch, but while visiting a friend's house I was reduced to trying a "bottled" salad dressing.  Normally, I would forego the dressing and eat my salad along with the rest of the meal; HOWEVER, I was intrigued by the salad dressing brand.  I cautiously read the ingredients, not so bad, then I put a dab on my plate...shockingly good flavor.  It was a little sweet for me, as I NEVER add a sweetener to my dressings, yet this dressing was outstanding!  This very tasty "bottled" dressing is made by I Love Organic Girl...yes, the same company who consciously packages all of those organic greens also makes relatively clean salad dressings.  I tried the lemon agave, but they have several flavors available.  http://www.iloveorganicgirl.com/og/products/dressings/lemon_agave/
