I am always told by clients and friends that they just can’t seem to get their children to eat healthy snacks! In this class, I will make my delicious vegan, sugar and nut-free cupcakes as well as a scrumptious chocolate pudding, a vegan sugar-free banana bread, and chocolate coconut macaroons! I literally have to fend my children (as well as their friends) off when I make these recipes!

Cost is $55 per class or $220 for the series of 4.

Is your pantry a mess?
Are you confused about what is and what is not healthy in your pantry?
Do you need help?
With my clients, I often find that the first step to eating healthily begins by making sure there is healthy food on hand (and that the “junk foods” are thrown out!) I will come to your home and personally walk through your pantry and give you guidance and what to throw out and what to buy. You will also be provided with a healthy shopping list.
For more information, contact me atKatherine@be-n-balance.com
Cost is $125/hr or current clients can use one session.

Chia seeds are a muscle and tissue builder, great source of protein and calcium, and one of the best vegetable sources of omega-3 fatty acids. They are also rich in the unsaturated fatty acid, linoleic, which the body cannot manufacture.
Chia seeds expand up to 9 times their size when mixed with water! They are therefore excellent blended into smoothies and used to make puddings.

I was watching an episode of Dr. Oz’s show called “The Lazy Girl’s Guide to Getting Healthy” the other night. While I think the show generalized too much and I don’t entirely agree that making the changes he suggests will matter a whole hill of beans to the girls he was instructing, the title stuck with me and the general premise is sound. You don’t have to kill yourself making huge, sweeping changes to your diet to change your health for the better!
It always amazes me that athletes will scrutinize their diets with a fine tooth comb and then use processed sports products packed with fructose and even high fructose corn syrup to boost their performance during – and replenish after – strenuous workouts! When we use sugar and other carbohydrates to temporarily boost our performance, we may see immediate effects, but in the long term this creates a roller coaster ride that is not good for our bodies. So, what do I recommend and personally use to replenish electrolytes after a tough workout? Coconut water!

Contrary to what many of you might think or have been led to believe by well-meaning health professionals or manufacturers of low fat foods, I have an important secret to tell you- eating “fat” does not make you fat! Counting calories does not make you skinnier either but we will leave that for another article!!!
Americans spend 54 billion dollars on diet products and seem to be on non-stop low-fat, low-carb, and low calorie diets yet we are getting fatter as a nation with 71.6 million Americans considered obese according to the American Heart Association! We spend 100 billion dollars on health care yet we are reaching near epidemics with respect to cancer, obesity, diabetes and heart disease.
