Hi, I’m Dana Dinnawi, health coach, editor and publisher of Empowered Wellness and Living Magazine. I’m in the business of showing strong, smart, independent women (like you) how to take back control of their lives . . . from what they eat and how they look, to what they do and how they feel. I help them break out of the cycle of yo-yo dieting so they can shed the last stubborn kilos, and learn how to eat for life so they can regain their energy and self-confidence to refocus on themselves and create a guilt-free lifestyle that fills them up daily.

When you take even a few minutes each day to replenish your soul and do something you truly love, you reconnect with yourself in the most powerful way. 🌿

You begin to feel lighter. Clearer. More empowered.

And that energy doesn’t just stay with you — it ripples outward.

The people around you feel it too. Your family, your friends, your community.

Because when you’re nourished and aligned, you inspire others to step into that same energy.

Take the time. Fill your cup. Let the ripple effect begin. 🌸

Eating to heal isn’t about willpower.

It’s not about forcing yourself to avoid your favorite foods forever and living in a constant battle of “I can’t have this.”

True healing is different.

When you actually heal your body at the root — balance your hormones, calm inflammation, restore your gut — your cravings change.

You stop wanting the very foods that once had so much control over you.

That’s the power of healing: it doesn’t just change what you eat, it changes what you desire. 🌿

We like beauty. We like things that look good and last long. But there’s a cost. Sometimes the cost is invisible—like body chemistry, long-term fertility, or small allergic reactions that build up over time.

Just because something looks good now doesn’t mean it’s harmless. And health isn’t always about what you see; it’s about what’s happening under the surface.

As of September 1, 2025, the European Union banned TPO (trimethylbenzoyl diphenylphosphine oxide), a chemical used in a lot of gel nail polish.

Why? Because TPO has been classified as CMR 1B—meaning carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic for reproduction under EU law.

The ban doesn’t mean all gels are outlawed — just those that use TPO. Polishes and products with TPO now must be removed, reformulated, or disposed of.

Here’s what’s causing concern:

Reproductive Health Risks:
Animal studies (mostly in rodents) showed high doses of TPO, especially when ingested, led to fertility issues, problems in development, endocrine/hormone disruption.

Carcinogenic / Mutagenic Potential:
As part of its classification, TPO is now treated as potentially cancer-causing or damaging to DNA. Again, most evidence comes from lab/animal settings, not human clinical trials.

Allergic Reactions & Irritation:
Even beyond TPO, gel polishes often contain strong photoinitiators, HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), and other chemicals that can cause skin sensitization, contact dermatitis, irritation. UV/LED curing adds another layer of exposure risk.

Occupational Exposure:
Salon workers are exposed more frequently and over long periods of time. They face repeated contact with UV light + chemicals, inhalation of fumes, etc. Their risk is magnified compared to someone who gets the occasional manicure.

What it means for you:

If you love your gel mani, you don’t have to freak out — just get informed. Not every polish has TPO. Brands are already reformulating.

If you’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or sensitive to allergens, using TPO-free formulas is a safer bet.

Ask your nail tech what ingredients are in the polish. Choose polish brands that clearly label “TPO-free” or that use alternative photoinitiators.

Reduce risk by taking breaks between gel manis, letting nails recover, using cuticle protection, and ensuring proper ventilation.

Here are a few TPO-free / safer gel polish alternatives + what to look out for — so you can still get cute nails without the risk.

Brands and Products to Try

Manucurist – “Green Flash” line

100% TPO-free; instead they use TPO-L, which is not classified as CMR (Carcinogenic, Mutagenic, or Toxic for Reproduction).
Also bio-sourced up to ~84%, vegan, cruelty-free.
Has LED gel polish that removes in ~1 minute, with gentler formulas.

Manucurist / Manucurist Green Flash non-toxic hybrid / gel polish options

These avoid many other toxic or allergenic molecules, try to avoid harsh monomers, etc.

Other Options / Brands Mentioned Being Reformulated

There are reports that some gel polish brands are quickly switching to TPO-free formulas in response to the EU ban.

What to Look for When Choosing a Safer Gel/Nail Polish

Label should say “TPO-free” or explicitly avoid TPO (or “used safe alternatives / compliant photoinitiators like TPO-L”).

Check that it avoids other known irritants / sensitizers if you have sensitive skin: e.g. HEMA, DBP, formaldehyde, toluene, xylene, etc.

Prefer LED-cured over UV (if possible) and ensure proper curing to reduce leftover uncured monomer exposure.

Look for cruelty-free, bio-sourced, vegan or “clean” beauty labels if that aligns with your values.

Ensure removal process is gentle (avoid harsh scraping, excessive buffing); some safer products offer easier removal.

So you have a thyroid condition…HypothyroidismHashimoto’sHyperthyroidismGoiterNodulesAnd the first thing they told you?“...

So you have a thyroid condition…

Hypothyroidism
Hashimoto’s
Hyperthyroidism
Goiter
Nodules

And the first thing they told you?
“Stop eating broccoli.”
“Stay away from cauliflower.”
“Don’t touch spinach.”

So you did. You cut them out. You avoided every cruciferous veggie like it was poison.

And?

Is your thyroid healed?
Are you off your levothyroxine / Synthroid / Eltroxin?
Did avoiding broccoli suddenly balance your hormones?

I’ll wait...

Because here’s the thing no one is asking you…

How much broccoli were you even eating before you got diagnosed? 5 bowls a day? Or maybe a side serving once a week with dinner?

I'm guessing none...

Your thyroid didn’t “break” because of broccoli.

It’s not spinach’s fault.

Your thyroid is struggling because of years of inflammation, toxins, nutrient deficiencies, viruses and stress overload.

But it’s easier to blame vegetables than to face the real root causes, isn’t it?

Healing requires more than cutting out a salad ingredient.

It requires restoring balance — detoxing the liver, healing the gut, replenishing minerals, and lowering inflammation at the source.

So no, broccoli isn’t the villain.
And yes, you CAN heal:)

🍕🥗 One pizza won’t give you a disease.
But one salad won’t heal you either:)

Health is not built on what you do every once in a while.

It’s built on what you do every single day — the habits, choices, and routines you repeat, day in and day out.

✨ Your body responds to consistency.
It reflects the little daily things you do, not the occasional extremes.

So instead of stressing about “cheat meals” or expecting one “healthy” meal to fix everything — focus on building a rhythm of nourishment, movement, sleep, and self-care that adds up over time.

Because true healing and prevention aren’t one-time events.
They’re a lifestyle. 🌱

✨ Let’s talk about Maggi cubes (and similar bouillon cubes) — those little blocks that many of us grew up throwing into soups, stews, and rice for “flavor.”

They seem harmless, but here’s the truth:

MSG + Flavor Enhancers
These cubes are packed with monosodium glutamate (MSG) and artificial flavor enhancers. They overstimulate your taste buds while exhausting your nervous system, often leaving you craving more. Long term, MSG has been linked to headaches, mood swings, and hormonal imbalances.

Refined Salt + Hidden Sugars
Instead of mineral-rich salt, they use refined, processed salt (stripped of nutrients) that spikes blood pressure and harms the kidneys. Some even contain hidden sugars that add to insulin resistance and weight gain.

Hydrogenated Oils + Preservatives
Many contain hydrogenated fats and chemical preservatives, both of which contribute to inflammation — the root of most chronic conditions, from arthritis to autoimmune issues.

Nutrient Empty
They add flavor, yes, but zero nutrition. In fact, they often block nutrient absorption, leaving your body more depleted over time.

🌱 Better Alternatives?

Homemade bone broth or veggie stock

Fresh herbs, garlic, onion, ginger

Celtic sea salt or Himalayan salt

Your body deserves real nourishment, not a chemical cocktail disguised as “flavor.”

✨ Healing starts with swapping small daily choices — like replacing a Maggi cube with fresh herbs and real salt.

Client Testimonial: Healing Orbital Myositis Naturally 🌿

Autoimmune CAN Be Reversed 🔥

When my client was first diagnosed with orbital myositis — an autoimmune condition that causes painful eye inflammation — doctors did what they always do: reached straight for the prescription pad.

They gave her Imuran 50 (a harsh immunosuppressant) and 60 mg of cortisone daily. These drugs don’t cure autoimmune. They only shut down symptoms while wrecking your body in other ways.

But here’s the truth no one tells you: autoimmune CAN be healed. Doctors just don’t know how.

Instead of surrendering to a lifetime of meds, she chose to change her terrain through detox. She reduced the cortisone, refused the Imuran, and focused on fruits, vegetables, and healing foods.

✨ What happened?

Her flare-ups calmed down.

Daily headaches disappeared.

Her energy skyrocketed.

Her skin began to glow.

And most importantly, she gained control over her autoimmune condition without the meds they said were “necessary.”

This is what happens when you stop masking symptoms and start healing at the root.
Your body isn’t broken. It’s waiting for you to stop feeding the problem and start supporting the solution.

And just because a doctor prescribes medication doesn’t mean you have to take it (outside of emergencies). You always have a choice. You can choose healing. 🌿

Your body is designed to repair, restore, and thrive — when you give it the right tools.

👉 Autoimmune is not a life sentence.
It can be reversed. You just won’t hear that in a doctor’s office;)

For people who still need to HEAL (part 1 of 2)

Good morning :))

If I wasn’t a health coach, I’d be confused too.
Eat fruit. Don’t eat fruit.
Protein is amazing. Protein is toxic.
Coffee is healthy. Coffee wrecks your hormones.

No wonder people give up.

Here’s the truth: if you’re still struggling with symptoms — fatigue, night sweats, PMS, migraines, bloating, joint pain, diabetes, thyroid issues, autoimmune — your body is telling you loud and clear: you need to heal.

And healing means regeneration.

It’s not about dieting. It’s not about eating “clean.”

It’s about removing what’s hurting you (wheat, dairy, processed junk, caffeine, eggs, heavy proteins) and flooding your body with fruits and veggies that repair and rebuild at the cellular level.

Healing = no symptoms + no meds.

If you still have either, your current way of eating isn’t working.

Anything less means you’re not actually healing;)

Client Testimonial ✨

One of my clients shared:

“I was taking Nexium regularly when I first joined Dana’s detox. Now, I haven’t taken one pill for 2 years. It feels great!”

This is exactly what happens when you heal the root cause instead of just masking symptoms.

Most people think acid reflux is caused by too much stomach acid. The truth? It’s usually the opposite.

Reflux happens when bacteria and toxins in the liver or small intestine produce acids that mimic stomach acid. These “bad acids” rise up into the esophagus, causing that burning, painful sensation.

When you don’t have enough hydrochloric acid (the good stomach acid that kills bacteria and aids digestion), the “bad acids” take over.

That’s why popping pills like Nexium doesn’t heal the problem. It suppresses acid even further — giving bacteria and toxins more room to thrive.

The real solution? Remove the foods that bacteria love (gluten, dairy, eggs, and often animal protein), reduce fat so the liver can rest, and nourish the body with healing foods.

When you do this consistently, your body resets. Symptoms that seemed impossible to get rid of — like reflux, bloating, pain, and fatigue — start disappearing.

That’s why my client hasn’t needed a pill in 2 years. Healing happens when you address the root cause, not just silence the symptoms.

💡 Your body is always trying to heal. Give it the right tools.

Life will always bring challenges. There will NEVER be a perfect time to transform your health. Never.

So the real question is: knowing how you feel today… knowing the risks of disease down the road… knowing the possibility of being tied to medications (and their side effects) for life…

Why would you wait?

If it feels hard now, it will feel just as hard next month. And just as hard next year. The only difference will be that you’ve lost precious time.

Can you really afford to keep waiting?

Because here’s the truth: nothing changes if nothing changes.
