One supplement that I have seen the most benefits from is soluble collagen. Over time collagen decreases. Pollution, too much sugar, and the natural decrease of collagen production can cause wrinkles, achy joints, brittle hair, saggy skin, and lack of firmness in the body.

Persist Until You See Results
Hello wellness friends, I hope you are taking care of yourself. I wanted to chat with you about persistence. It is important to understand that lifestyle changes and persistence are more important than quick fixes. Every fad diet I have ever tried failed me. They did not shift the way I perceived food. What happened…
What is Refined Sugar Doing to Your Body?
One of the blessings of Whole30 is that it is a refined sugar free lifestyle. Refined sugar is in many items we purchase including salsa, salad dressing, and ketchup.

Say No to Body Shaming
Aloha fitness and wellness friends, Today I wanted to talk about something that I believe impacts lots of people. It is body shaming. Body shaming is refusing to love your body or trying to make others feel bad about their body. You see it on the internet. People troll others social media and make nasty…
Life After Whole30
I hope you gave Whole30 a shot. I did and do not regret it. I lost 14 pounds without exercising much. I did take my Whole30 further than the 30 days. I went for two rounds. Yet 7 pounds a month is great progress. It is healthy progress. If you did or are trying Whole30,…
