Lose Weight this Holiday Season

Simple carbs (like chips, crackers and bread), spike insulin levels, which in turn helps our body make serotonin and therefore light up the brain’s pleasure center… The problem is that the joy it brings is only temporary.

A diet low in protein and high in carbohydrates will often be followed by weight gain, mood-swings and the constant need for carbs to feel emotionally satisfied. 

Get results this holiday season with a plan of action.

Hello, from the Founder.

Hi! It’s been a while since I have said hello. My name is Lauren, the Founder of Feel Good Dallas and a Certified Holistic Nutritionist.

As a holistic nutritionist, I believe everything is connected. Regardless of whether a client comes to me with chronic migraines, depression, anxiety, or to lose weight, etc. —> I start at the same place: I look at gut health, nutrient density (and simplicity) of diet, digestion, elimination, sleep, hydration, supplementation, etc.

Should you go Vegan?

Countless research suggests eating a more predominately vegan diet consisting of whole, plant-based foods, can radically improve our overall well-being but the boundaries outlining what actually constitutes as “plant-based” have become quite blurred. 🥦 vs. 🍔

What most of these studies fail to elaborate on is the stark difference between adding vegetables to the diet and reducing animal consumption, versus exchanging animal products for something resembling the former, but made with highly processed “vegan” ingredients. 

Actual vegetables, can be a powerhouse of nutrients, containing beneficial properties we do not glean from a traditional steak and potato diet. However, we also don’t get them from a processed vegan diet either.
