Buying organic everything can add up fast.

The “Clean 15” is a list of fruits and vegetables that tend to have lower detectable pesticide residues, and it can help you figure out which foods to buy conventional (affordable).

The bigger picture? Eating fruits and vegetables regularly is far more important than eating organic-only.

I’d love to hear:
Which foods do you - personally - always buy organic?

Should I post this year’s "Dirty Dozen" next?

Many of the foods people consider “healthy” are high in specific short-chain carbohydrates known as FODMAPs, such as fructans, fructose, mannitol, sorbitol, and GOS.

These carbohydrates are poorly absorbed in the gut and can ferment rapidly, leading to bloating, gas, abdominal pain, constipation, and/or diarrhea in people with IBS.

That said, not every high-FODMAP food causes symptoms for every person.

The goal is not to fear food.

The goal is to identify which foods YOUR body struggles with so you can strategically reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life.

Which of these foods surprises you most?

Are you so desperate to improve your IBS symptoms that you’re reaching for prebiotics and probiotics, assuming they can only help?

They’re marketed as “good for gut health,” so what could go wrong?

Quite a bit, actually.

While both may help in the right context, both can also worsen bloating, gas, pain, constipation, or diarrhea.

That’s why a personalized approach matters.

Have you ever tried a probiotic or prebiotic that made you feel worse?

If you’ve been told to try the Low FODMAP Diet, you might be wondering, 'What does that even mean?'

The Low FODMAP Diet is a short-term, structured approach used to help identify foods that cause chronic bloating, gas, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and constipation.

FODMAPs are types of carbohydrates that can be poorly absorbed in the gut and easily fermented, leading to those uncomfortable symptoms.

Here’s the part many people don’t realize:
This is not a forever diet.

It’s a 3-phase process:

1. Temporarily reduce high-FODMAP foods.
2. Systematically reintroduce them.
3. Personalize your diet based on what your body tolerates.

The goal isn’t restriction — it’s clarity and improved quality of life.

Done correctly, it can help you expand your diet, not shrink it.

If you have IBS and are thinking about trying the Low FODMAP Diet, don't do it alone.

Spot-reduction is one of the most persistent myths in the fitness industry — and it's been selling workout programs, ab rollers, and butt-shrinking DVDs for decades.

The frustrating truth? Your body loses fat on its own schedule, in its own order, based on your genetics and hormones. Not based on which muscle you worked this morning.

Fat loss is a whole-body process. It's slower and less dramatic than the fitness industry wants you to believe. But it's real and it's lasting.

Train consistently. Fuel yourself well. Give it time. It will work -- I promise.

What's the worst fitness promise you've ever seen? Please share.

April is IBS Awareness Month, so I want to spend this month making life easier for people who are managing it.

Let's start with the question I get asked all the time: What can I eat?

Here's a full day of low-FODMAP meals that are realistic, satisfying, healthy, and don't require specialty ingredients from a different state or country.

Swipe through. 👉🏼

A few things to remember: Low-FODMAP isn't meant to be forever. It's a tool to identify your triggers — and it works best when you do it properly and then systematically reintroduce foods. (That's where working with a dietitian who knows IBS makes a big difference.)

Save this one. You'll want to come back to it. 📌

Your fueling shouldn’t stay the same all year.

Different sports. Different demands.

If your fueling doesn’t adjust with your training, you’re going to feel it...and your performance will suffer.

Be smart.

Most endurance runners don’t fall apart at the end of a race.

They start falling apart much earlier. Usually 2–3 hours in.

That’s not bad luck. Or nerves. Or lack of fitness.

That’s fueling.

By then, it’s too late to fix, so their pace tanks.

If you want to avoid that, your fueling plan needs to be dialed in before race day.

There are hundreds of sports fuel products — and most athletes are just guessing.

I made a side-by-side comparison guide that shows carbs, protein, caffeine, and sodium in most of the fueling products on the market.

No confusion. Just clear comparisons.

What should I use?
How much do I need?
Does this actually work?

These are the fueling questions athletes ask me every week.

So I created something to make sports fuel choices simpler and clearer.

Athletes aren’t averages.

Training load, schedule, preferences, and gut tolerance all influence which fueling strategy fits.

Just because something worked for your friend doesn’t mean it will work for you.

Smart fueling is individualized.

This is worth remembering the next time someone hands you a generic fueling plan.

Have you ever tried copying someone’s plan and it completely backfired?
