THE HEALTHNUT HOW TO
THE HEALTHNUT SKIN
THE HEALTHNUT TRIAL

I quickly began to realize that the food I ate was largely connected to my emotions, stress levels, and mood.

THE HEALTHNUT TRIAL

It took a lot of trial and error for me to find a balance that worked for me and my unique body. Throughout my journey I have experimented with just about every diet there is, from vegetarian, Raw Till 4, gluten-free. You could say the proof was in the pudding (healthy Lemon Pie Chia Pudding, that is) because when I started to live a healthier lifestyle, all of the positive changes immediately hooked me onto a new way of life.

THE HEALTHNUT SKIN

My brittle nails became stronger, my skin became smoother and brighter, and I just felt happier overall. Although I initially started eating better and exercising in order to reduce my stress and heal my anxiety, it had an overwhelmingly positive ripple effect. I didn’t know it at the time, but Matt played a huge role in influencing me to start working out, eating healthy, and enjoying life outside of work. It was a slow process, but I steadily started adopting healthier habits, such as eating breakfast, drinking more water than coffee, joining a running club with my boyfriend, Matt, and of course I quit smoking. Running off adrenaline, and not checking in with myself, quickly ran me right into a brick wall of exhaustion.

THE HEALTHNUT HOW TO

Even while going to college, I was working three part-time jobs and saying yes to everything because I just didn’t know how to say no to a good opportunity. Believe it or not, at one point I was even a smoker! The most unhealthy habit of all, though, was working 24/7. I was addicted to sugar and sweets, and although I was skinny, I had barely worked out a day in my life. I would often skip breakfast and run off a large coffee till noon. But as I got older and started working part-time jobs, partying on the weekends, and staying up all night-like most teenagers-I fell into a health rut. My mom always bought whole wheat bread and 1% milk, and we always had a big salad at the dinner table. I did grow up in a pretty healthy-eating Portuguese household. I wasn’t always the green-smoothie-junkie, kalechomping girl I am today.
