Alter Health Naturopathic Doctors Specializing in Whole Food Plant-Based Nutrition and Mind-Body Medicine Meeting in medical school, there were many things that brought Drs.

Benjamin and Susanna together. Health, healing, yoga, nature, spirituality, adventure - they share a common pursuit of truth in this world that fuels a passion for holistic wellness. They have been perpetual students, always guided by the truth. Their unique studies have them both grounded in ancient healing traditions while being fully adept with the latest technology. Maybe most unique is their connection with the art and science of spiritual psychology. This understanding invites transformative shifts in perspective, viewing all of life for growth and learning. From this place, all symptoms - physical, mental, and emotional - are messages from the body, guiding us along the path to healing. With this understanding, Drs. Benjamin and Susanna Love pointing individuals towards their inherent wellbeing and self-healing potential. knowing that piece of truth is important and opens an opportunity for a deepened relationship with oneself to support the healing process. Drs. Benjamin and Susanna know that true healing requires two pieces of information:

1. Knowing what is wrong
2. Knowing what to do about it

They are committed to providing you the information and inspiration required for transformational healing on all levels. Their highest mission is to point you inwards to access the love and healing potential that naturally resides in each of us.

Oh me, oh my. Oh me, oh my. DID YOU KNOW THE ALTER HEALTH SUMMER CLEANSE STARTS ON THE 21ST OF JULY? 🥳

Hey friends! Summer update :)

I know it's been a while since I've posted here. My excuse, as always, is that I've been super busy being a mom to Grace (a full-time job, which I LOVE). Here's a photo of a sweet moment from last weekend with her.
I've also been busy at Alter Health supporting clients in 1-on-1 consults and creating our weekly healing WFPB meal guide for our meal guide members. LIFE IS FULL! Full of wonderful things.

(PS - "Oh me, oh my. Oh me, oh my. What a lot of funny things so by" is a quote from Dr. Suess' Red Fish Blue Fish. Did anyone recognize it? The lines from Grace's books are stuck in my head all day long, haha)

Anyway, I'm here to invite you all to join the Alter Health Summer Cleanse. It's an amazing opportunity to nourish your liver, release unwanted toxins, accelerate healing, optimize weight, enhance immune function, and reconnect with wholesome, healing whole-food, plant-based eating. Dr. Ben and I do this cleanse four times a year in a group setting. For us, it serves as a wonderful tastebud reset and helps us reconnect with the simple deliciousness of real whole-plant foods.

I also look forward to the cleanse as a wonderful time to connect with YOU ALL—our wonderful WFPB community. The five Zoom support calls during the cleanse are so nourishing and truly help accelerate healing through the magic medicine of community!

The Cleanse starts on the 21st, but the first cleanse meeting (our prep meeting) happens on the 19th! Learn more about all the details at https://www.alter.health/cleanse (link in our bio!)

04/14/2024

Raise your hand if you feel like your metabolism is slower than you'd like it to be. Metabolic health isn't just about weight; having a sluggish metabolism can also lead to low energy, slow healing, and more.

Our metabolism is the body's conversion of fuel into energy. We need this energy not only for daily tasks but also for maintaining our health—detoxification, regeneration, and healing all rely on it. If you've experienced chronic symptoms in any area of the body, focusing on metabolic health is crucial for reversing those symptoms.

Join Dr. Susanna this Monday (tomorrow) for a FREE webinar on metabolic health.

She'll dive into the nitty-gritty details of achieving an efficient metabolism with Whole Food Plant-Based Eating!

Mark your calendar for April 15th at 9:30 am PT / 10:30 am MT / 11:30 am CT / 12:30 pm PT for the Reboot Metabolism Webinar
—the first in a series of three that Dr. Susanna will teach throughout April.

In this webinar, you'll:

- Understand what metabolism is and how it supports our health.
- Learn about the main factors and foods that contribute to a sluggish metabolism.
- Discover the keys to speeding up metabolism in a sustainable and healthy way through lifestyle changes.

Please note, this webinar will not be teaching you any crash diet or weight loss gimmick. This webinar will not be teaching you to restrict food, count calories, or restrict portion sizes. This webinar will be talking about how when we eat aligned with nature, eat ENOUGH, and nourish the body with proper nutrients, the metabolism will naturally speed back up to a healthy and sustainable rate. The natural byproduct of gaining more health is settling into a weight that's right and healthiest for your unique body. So while people often achieve their weight goals easily with a balanced WFPB lifestyle, our focus of this webinar is increasing health and creating a sustainable and balanced relationship with food.

“I recently completed the most recent WFPB Challenge and it was life changing for me! I have been thinking about making a change for a long time yet struggling with how to get started with a Plant Based Whole Food lifestyle. Drs. Ben and Susanna made it so easy and they took the pressure off. Their passion for helping others was clear - and they are a joy to spend time with. I really looked forward to each night’s session and was truly sad to have it come to an end. They explained the basics is simple terms and were there the entire week for support. The collective support of like minded people in their Facebook group is also invaluable. They made themselves available all week to support and answer questions — who does that these days for free!? I am forever grateful that their Challenge opportunity came to me when I needed it the most. I am one week in these changes and I can’t really put in to works just how better I am feeling - truly amazing! Thanks to Drs Susanna and Ben - the work you are doing is changing lives!”

Sweet peas. A delicious hearty legume that you might not consider blending into a creamy dressing... BUT, this dressing is so good!

Peas bring their protein and healing phytonutrients along with a smooth green color.

The peas add an extra creaminess to the dressing, without increasing the fat content.

Some people sky away from using frozen veggies, but the truth is that frozen veggies are still extremely nutrient dense. The veggies are harvested at peak ripeness and stored in a way that maintains excellent nutrient quality.

So the good news is, you can enjoy this salad dressing year-round thanks to wonderful frozen peas!

• 4 cup peas
• 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
• 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1 Tbsp miso
• 1 cup water

Put all ingredients in a blender and blend on high until smooth.

Some like it hot! Do you? Even if you aren't a big fan of spicy food, you've got to try this Whole Food Plant-Based Jambalaya.

https://www.alter.health/blog/wfpb-jambalaya

This spin on the classic Creole-style dish combines brown rice, Cajun spices, and tons of veggies to make a hearty yet light one-pot dish. We add red beans instead of animal protein, which eliminates the dish's cholesterol content while raising the fiber content through the roof (in a good way!).

This dish certainly packs a punch of heat (it's spicy!), so feel free to leave out the red pepper flakes and hot sauce if you prefer a less spicy dish.

We like to make this meal complete with a side of salad and potatoes.

This recipe is listed as a premium recipe on our blog, which means it is only accessible to our Meal Guide Members. But if you'd like to have access to this recipe and hundreds of other healing WFPB recipes, the good news is that it's just $11/month to become a member!

Along with access to healing recipes, you'll also get a weekly meal guide sent to your inbox and an invite to join our monthly support call hosted by Dr. Susanna.
