Most people talk about eating well as if it comes down to making better choices.

But for ADHD brains, food is rarely just one choice.

It's noticing hunger before the crash. It's stopping what you're doing. It's remembering what food exists. It's deciding what sounds tolerable. It's switching tasks...

I don't know what's happening for us in Ontario right now, but I feel like we've had all four seasons in the past five days.

One day, it's spring, windows open, and I feel like a new person.

The next day, it's snowing or sideways raining some weird combination of mushy hail again, and we're back...

With Halloween just behind us, I've been getting tons of questions about what I'm doing with all that Halloween candy—and how I'm managing it with my kids.

It's funny, isn't it?

The expectation that, as a nutritionist, I'd be guarding that candy stash with every trick in the book!

But here's my...

As parents, we're the first to notice when something's not quite right with our children—especially in the unpredictable weather of spring. If you or your child has ADHD, or even if they don't- you may have noticed that something feels a little “off” right now.

And, it's more than just chasing your...

A satisfying, dairy-free creamy plate of noodles that are packed with protein!

Are you cramped for time and worried about how many actual nutrients are making it into your kid’s body?

I feel you!

You’re juggling all the things: career, parenting, social life, relationships with family and friends, household management, maybe even a passion or hobby you love and, oh ya…the...

Hopefully, you and your family had a chance to slow down over the holiday.

Over here in the Jones household we encountered a few adventures in home-ownership and are finally getting over a battle with the flu! 

We are definitely looking forward to getting back in the swing of things.

I'm an avid lover of physical activity, especially resistance training and opportunities to challenge my physical limits (I finished my first Spartan race this year), but, encountering an injury that restricted my movement was a seemingly unbearable challenge for me.

I’ve been battling a torn lab...
