The truth behind what we eat, and why is important to have healthy digestion, and what can we do to improve our digestion. A lot of people including myself struggle with eating disorders in one form or another. There is a phrase I like to use one is to many and a thousand is never enough. At least when it comes to those addictive behaviors around food, such as sugar which I refer to as crack. Or the carbo craze.. Now I am a firm believer in celebration and treats but even at that there is a healthy way to go about that. There are treats that even nourish our bodies as I will go into further later on. If we looked at food as gas  or fuel to fuel our bodies rather than what makes us feel good. Food is not our enemy or for taste rather its for nutrients it is the component that gives us life energy and stamina. What I realize is that most of us look at food backwards, food is the most one of the most important elements in our lives it gives us life. Just like Gas when w...

My passion for healthy cooking started way early in my teenage years, I always liked cooking. As far as I can remember I was always looking at cooking labels, looking at the ingredients and finding new way to recreate new dishes. Although when I turned 18 I was highered on as a cook at a sizzler and my cooking passion took off, cooking came natural to me. I soon was running the kitchen.  Where I became obsessed with healthy cooking came from my passion of fitness the two passioned collided. I soon started studying nutrition and found myself finding ways to recreate my favorite dishes that where, well not so healthy and finding was to may them healthy and make them taste amazingly great. What happen to me was i soon realized that there was a disconnect between health and fitness, a lot of people in fitness where actually not healthy. I struggled internally with the two different beliefs and for lack of better terms diets. They are every different . One is...

There is one thing I am passionate about is making health food taste great! So Nikkia and I started Old Harbor Sustainable Seafoods this year as a mission and a dream. We wanted to provide high quality Seafood from Alaska while at the same time providing jobs for a rule village in Alaska that from an outsider perspective could be considered a 3 world country or the last frontier. A village of maybe a 100 people that depends on the government for there housing food and education. Is in dier need for an economic boost. Living here alone has is an exspence, There is no roaads accessing this village and the only way to recieve food and goods by plane and or by boat. This picturesque village is unique in that its raw ruggedness, but also its natural wildlife. Nikkia fell in love with Alaska about 20 years ago and was born with the blood  of a native. Naturally adhering to rule the rule lifestyle. He was born to hunt and fish. Anyone that knows Nikkia will tell he was born to hunt and ...
