Halloween is around the corner! 🎃 This is a holiday that so many children (and adults for that matter 😆) look forward to- getting dressed up, Halloween parades, and of course- trick or treating. Have you noticed the teal pumpkins? Teal is the new orange... 😊⁠ ⁠ The Teal Pumpkin Project was designed to raise awareness about food allergies by incorporating non- food trinkets and toys as additions or alternatives to what Halloween has become known for- candy! By placing a teal pumpkin in front of your home or apartment door, you can let trick or treaters know that you have something that food allergy kiddos can enjoy, making Halloween more safe and inclusive for all trick or treaters.⁠ ⁠ Even if your family doesn't have an allergy in your household, taking part in the Teal Pumpkin Project can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience for all! For some DIY projects with your kids, you can carve your pumpkin and paint or decorate your pumpkin teal or create a DIY giveaway for food- allergy
Cold season is upon us!⁠ 🤧⁠ ⁠ It’s that time of year again, and with it comes constant colds, sniffles, runny nose... One of the best ways to keep your immune system prepped for the upcoming chilly weather is to incorporate anti-inflammatory foods and spices. We happen to love turmeric milk lattes! ⁠ ⁠ Turmeric is a relative of ginger, and contains an antioxidant called curcumin which helps fight off inflammation. Combining turmeric with black pepper can actually help enhance the absorption of curcumin significantly. ⁠ ⁠ We’re loving @foursigmatic and @golde turmeric blends right now! How are you preparing to stay healthy and prevent the sniffles in your household? ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #coldseason #fallweather #coldweather #mushroom #foursigmatic #goldeturmeric #antiinflammatory #autumn #goldenmilk #chillyweather #turmeric #blackpepper #healthyliving #immunity #immunesystem #stayhealthy #antioxidants #naturalfoods #foodismedicine #naturalremedy #turmericbenefits #holisticnutri
Egg allergies, along with milk allergies, are among the most common food allergies for children under the age of 2 years old. We’re often asked what part of the egg actually causes the allergy- the egg white or yolk?⁠ ⁠ Eggs actually contain many different proteins that can lead to an allergic reaction. However, kids with an allergy typically react mostly to the ingestion of egg whites due to the fact that egg whites contain more allergens than egg yolks. Regardless, if younger than 7 years old, your child should avoid eggs in general due to the high anaphylactic/severe reaction (unless otherwise advised or challenged by your child’s physician). ⁠ What is your child’s favorite way to eat their eggs? We happen to love cheesy eggs 😜⁠ ⁠. . . . . #farmfresh #healthyhabbits #integrativenutrition #foodishealing #holistichealth #foodismedicine #conciergemedicine #eggs #functionalhealth #immuneboost #naturallifestyle #eggallergy #eatgoodfeelgood #fuelyourbody #goodmoodfoo
All about the scent! 🌼🌲🌹⁠ ⁠ Did you know there have been numerous studies showing that certain scents can have varying effects on your mood and stress levels? Citrus scents, such as lemon or grapefruit, can be energizing while aromas such as lavender can be soothing and help decrease stress levels or anxiety- got you mama!⁠ ⁠ Anyone who knows me, knows that I can't resist a great scent! 😉 Currently on the roster, loving my @thisworks essential oil diffuser blend, @lakeandskye candle, and @woodlot lavender & bergamot home mist. ⁠ What are some of your favorite scents that help make you feel fab? 😍⁠ ⁠ xo, Erica ⁠ . . . . . #essentialoils #oils #scents #diffuser #selfcare #lavender #oil #bergamont #nontoxic #lessstress #lemon #wellness #natural #healthyliving #aromatherapy #organic #essentialoilsrock #allnatural #diffuserblend #lavenderoil #essentialoillove #diffuserblends ⁠ ⁠ ⁠
It’s that time of year! 🎃 ⁠ Pumpkin is a great source of vitamin A, vitamin C, B vitamins, potassium, antioxidants, fiber, and monounsaturated fats! We also used cassava flour, or “yuca” flour, which is another root veggie so it’s nut-free! 😉⁠ ⁠ Tis the season, so we thought we’d share this delicious chocolate chip pumpkin muffin recipe that is also gluten- free and nut- free! ⁠ Cassava Flour Chocolate Chip Gluten- Free and Nut- Free Pumpkin Muffins⁠ ⁠ Ingredients:⁠ 2 cups cassava flour⁠ 2 tsp baking powder⁠ 1 tsp baking soda⁠ 2 tsp cinnamon⁠ 1 tsp ground nutmeg⁠ ½ tsp ground ginger⁠ ½ tsp sea salt⁠ 3 eggs whisked⁠ ¼ cup pure maple syrup⁠ ¼ cup vegetable oil⁠ 1 tsp vanilla⁠ 1 Tbsp honey⁠ 1 can pumpkin puree⁠ ½ cup chocolate chips (we used Lily’s milk chocolate due to their lower sugar and higher fiber content, however use any that you would like)⁠ *to increase fiber add ¼ cup ground flax seeds ⁠ Directions:
Did you know that it often takes up to 15 exposures for children around 3- 5 years old to accept a new food? 🤓⁠ ⁠ Picky eating is extremely common. Children actually have more taste buds than adults, making them sensitive to the bitter compounds found in certain foods such as vegetables. Not only does taste have a large impact on a child’s level of food acceptance, but their sensory experience with food textures and overall appetite also play significant roles in their level of picky eating. ⁠ ⁠ Offering new foods with their current favorites is something we like to recommend. Also, leading by example is a great way to take the fear out of trying new foods- if your child sees you eating it, it peaks their curiosity! Licking, tasting, or even touching the new food is all part of the fun for your child too. Remember, your job as a parent is to offer healthy options and keep mealtime fun, your child’s job is to be in charge of what he or she actually eats! 💪🏻😉💜⁠ . ⁠ .⁠ .⁠
