Even if you don’t have a cow’s milk food allergy, it’s hard to miss the fact that many commercially processed food products sold contain cow’s milk-based ingredients in them. That’s because dairy is commonly used by manufacturers to make many of their food products more appealing and taste better. Just think of butter cookies, milk chocolate bars, mac and cheese box kits, hot chocolate drink mixes, and goldfish crackers. Sometimes it seems like milk is used in nearly everything!
But when you’re trying to move into a full plant-based diet lifestyle or a vegan diet, navigating the commercial foods landscape can get tricky. That’s why I want to help. In this episode, I’ll show you how to easily spot common dairy-based ingredient terms on product packages with real-life examples. Let’s save you precious time and energy when grocery shopping, so you can move smoother and faster into a plant-powered lifestyle. Ready? Let’s dive in!

There’s a common concern I see among those wanting to start a plant-based diet lifestyle. And it’s this. It’s a fear that eating this way will cause them to seriously lack key nutrients, because they’re taking out meats, dairy, eggs and other animal-based foods from their meals. Do you have this fear too?
If so, iron might be one of those nutrients you are especially worried about when making this big lifestyle shift. Since meats are a source of iron, it’s natural then to be wondering, “Will eating plant-based make me end up with nutrient deficiencies and get health problems like iron deficiency anemia?”
Let’s talk about it. In this episode, we’ll look at the importance of iron for our bodies, how common iron deficiency anemia really is, and what the recent research is showing. That way, we can better answer this question. I’ll meet you on the inside!

What’s the biggest killer in the world? No, it’s not war, cancer, accidents or environmental disasters like wildfires or earthquakes. It’s heart disease. Heart disease is the #1 killer in the world AND in the United States. You may not be surprised by this. It’s likely that you already have heart problems or know a close loved one or friend who has suffered from a heart attack. The question is, can something be done about it? And can changing the way we eat really benefit our heart?
The answer is ‘YES’, it definitely can! In this episode, let’s talk about heart disease and how plant-based eating can help improve your or a loved one’s heart health, prevent heart disease and even lower the risk of future heart attacks. So grab your favorite cold or hot cuppa and join me on the inside!

Walk into any grocery store, and it’s natural to assume that most of the products being sold on shelves around us would be free from animal-based ingredients – such as cookies, soups, canned beans, noodles and breads. These are not in the refrigerated meats section and don’t seem to be made with fish, beef, pork, or poultry, so they’re obviously vegan or 100% plant-based, right?
Wrong. Manufacturers can turn animal-based fats and proteins into many forms, so many commercially processed food products can contain animal-derived ingredients. And it’s often without us realizing it, UNLESS we know where and what to look for.
That’s why I wanted to do this episode. I’ll give you top tips that’ll help you spot meat and fish-based ingredients used in commercial food products more quickly. You’ll then be able to make smarter shopping decisions and move with more confidence towards a plant-powered lifestyle. Are you ready to do this? Then let’s jump in!

Do you struggle with your weight? The pounds seem to have crept on relentlessly over the years and now you’re 30 pounds overweight. How did that happen? Probably through factors like stress, life events, lifestyle, exercise and eating habits…just to name a few. The problem is: you’ve already tried different ways to shed the pounds and get back to your goal weight. But none of them really worked. So now what do you do?
If you’re tired of doing all the yo-yo dieting, calorie counting, super restrictive portions, fad diets and endless tracking of macros, listen in. In this episode, I want to tell you about plant-based eating, and why it can help you lose unwanted pounds, without even being a diet. In fact, it may be the most unrestricted ‘diet’ you’ll ever be on. How? Let me explain. Grab your ear buds and join me in this episode!
