Compassionate personalized herbal solutions for optimal wellness using TCM, Western & Ayurvedic herbs Are you ready to embark on your personal wellness journey?

Holistic Harmony honors traditional herbalism, bringing forward principles from the time-tested systems of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda and Western Herbalism. These valuable systems were once predominantly practiced for many thousands of years; as a result, plants have been a part of our history and evolution. With the advent of modern pharmaceuticals, many of us forgot our relationship

with plants and herbal medicine rapidly became a distance memory. However, if we consume these plants again, our bodies are still capable of recognizing their chemical composition and activate a chain of natural reactions based on their intended use. At Holistic Harmony, we understand the essence of these herbal compounds, enabling us to create custom herbal formulas or recommend herbs whose energy correctly stimulates or adjusts the body's energy to promote balance. I'll be honored to accompany and guide you every step of the way.

Your health begins with what you eat, and knowing how to read ingredient labels is key to making better choices. 🌿

Ingredients Are Listed by Quantity
The first ingredient is what the product contains most. Keep it simple—avoid foods loaded with sugar or additives at the top.

Stick to Real Ingredients
If you can’t recognize it as food, don’t eat it! Choose options that are close to nature for better health and wellness.

Follow These 7 Simple Rules from The Pantry Principle
Ask yourself these questions when scanning the label:
1) Do you have to look it up?
2) Does it have a number?
3) Does it have four or more syllables?
4) Is it unpronounceable?
5) Does it end in -ate?
6) Is it “enriched”?
7) Is it in all capital letters without real words?

If you answered yes to any of these, don’t eat it!

💡Holistic Tip: Always opt for whole, natural ingredients as much as possible. Your body will thank you for it!

Feeling overwhelmed by the many egg options at the store? Let’s break it down and find the healthiest choice for you!

Best Option: Pasture-Raised Eggs
Pasture-raised hens roam freely outdoors, enjoying a natural diet of grasses, seeds, insects, and earthworms. This results in eggs packed with B12, folic acid, omega-3s, and less fat and cholesterol—making them the most nutritious option.

🔎 Other Labels, Explained:
1️⃣ Regular: Hens live in small cages, no outdoor access, and are often debeaked.
2️⃣ Vegetarian Fed: Similar to regular, but hens are fed a vegetarian diet (no bugs).
3️⃣ Certified Organic: Hens are uncaged and fed organic feed but may lack outdoor access.
4️⃣ Cage-Free: Hens are uncaged but often confined indoors. Debeaking is allowed.
5️⃣ Free Range: Some outdoor access, but debeaking is still common.
6️⃣ Natural: Misleading label with no oversight—usually like regular eggs.
7️⃣ Omega-3 Enriched: Hens are fed omega-3-rich diets but often raised like regular eggs.

💡 Tip: When possible, buy pasture-raised eggs directly from a trusted farmer to ensure quality and humane practices.

Your body depends on digestive enzymes to absorb nutrients effectively. Here are common causes of reduced nutrient assimilation—and how to avoid them:

Key Factors:
1) Drinking Water with Meals
Large amounts dilute digestive enzymes. Stick to small sips to aid digestion.

2) Stress at Mealtime
Stress activates your "fight or flight" mode, reducing enzyme release. Practice calm, mindful eating.

3) Lack of Bitter Foods
Bitters from leafy greens stimulate enzyme production. Add kale, dandelion greens, or arugula to your meals.

4) Caffeine with Meals
Caffeine disrupts the "rest and digest" response. Wait at least 1 hour after eating to enjoy your coffee.

5) Malnourishment
Your body needs energy, protein, and vitamins from whole foods to produce enzymes. Prioritize nutrient-dense meals.

A healthy digestive system is the foundation of wellness. Start with these tips to optimize your digestion and feel your best!

Not everything we eat is real food. Some ingredients are better left off your plate for a healthier you. Here are the top three non-food culprits to avoid:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)⁠
A cheap sweetener found in processed foods and drinks. Linked to:⁠
-Obesity⁠
-Diabetes⁠
-Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)⁠
Beware of hidden names like corn syrup, crystalline fructose, or isoglucose.⁠
⁠
2️⃣ Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)⁠
A flavor enhancer that’s hard to avoid unless you’re vigilant. Risks include:⁠
-Headaches, nausea, and chest pain (“Chinese Restaurant Syndrome”)⁠
-Liver inflammation⁠
-Acts as an excitotoxin (damaging nerve cells)⁠
Common hidden names: natural flavors, yeast extract, hydrolyzed protein.⁠
⁠
3️⃣ Artificial Colors⁠
Bright dyes in snacks, drinks, and candies are often petroleum-based and linked to:⁠
⁠
Allergic reactions⁠
ADHD-like behaviors in children⁠
Cancer-causing chemicals (e.g., benzidene, sulfites)⁠
💡 Pro Tip: Read ingredient labels carefully—many of these substances hide under different names. When in doubt, choose whole, unprocessed foods for your health and well-being.⁠
