You’ve explored different diets that are out there – Keto, Paleo, Whole 30, FODMAP,
My clients continually say they want to take care of their bodies on a deep level. This can only happen when we reduce the toxins we consume – through what we breathe, eat, and put on our bodies. Commercial sunscreen is one of those toxins we should avoid. Of the sixteen UV filters approved by
One of my clients came to me after reading my Sunshine blog in which I mentioned how toxic sunscreen is and that I was ready to give it up. She was intrigued but still concerned about what to do. “I am fair skinned. I worry about burning. I generally wear long sleeves and long pants
