While there’s no cure for RA, there is management. After my short grief period, I decided to tackle this the only way I know how — intentionally, strategically, and to stay as strong and healthy as possible for the rest of my life.

A blend of the seasonings I reach for the most - making it the perfect all-purpose blend for everyday cooking and virtually every recipe

Let me preface this by saying that I have always been a pretty disciplined, health-conscious person. I eat clean and mostly whole foods. I intentionally watch sugar and carb intake. I read labels. I don’t do seed oils or processed foods. I take my vitamins and supplements religiously (and there are quite a few). I pay attention to macros. I stay active.

Fewer processed junk, more fresh fruits/veggies, spices galore (especially anti-inflammatory heroes like turmeric), and organic when it fits your budget (no guilt if it doesn't). The goal? Healthier eating that's doable, delicious, and fun—not extreme or boring.
