Don’t ask me why... But it’s already the end of January! And if you're feeling like this month didn't quite live up to your expectations... I get it. I've been there too. But here's something I want you to remember: Every day is a chance to start fresh. You don't have to wait until Monday. Or nex…

Call to action: Stop buying Doritos and M&M’s

The other day I was walking the candy aisle for Valentine’s Day… and realized that it was still so full of artificial dyes.  Endless rows of M&M’s, Ring Pops, Goldbears, Skittles, Smarties, and Dum Dums – all filled with artificial petroleum-based Red 40, Blue 1, and Yellow 5. Even worse…  Th…

This is how we beat Big Food at their own game

I love when someone is brave enough to take on an industry that needs to change. And that’s why I need to tell you about a cereal brand that’s shaking up the cereal industry. It’s called LOVEBIRD cereal. It was created by my friend Parker, who I met a few years ago at Expo West. We share somethin…

You HAVE to try these chips

A friend recently told me: “Vani, you HAVE to try these chips and tostadas." I was skeptical. I've read countless ingredient labels on tortilla chips/tostadas over the years, and they all have the same problems... Conventional tortilla chips/tostadas are loaded with: Industrial seed oils (canola…

Cancer risk of additives found in tortillas, deli meats, and more

One of the best decisions I ever made was cutting out ultra-processed food and choosing real food as much as possible. More and more research is now finding man-made food additives linked to cancer, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic diseases. Two large new studies out of France just found that p…

A face cream that meets my standards (ends today)

I’ve always believed that what you put on your body matters just as much as what you put in it. This is why I’m just as careful about what I put on my skin as I am about what I eat. I don’t use a lot of beauty products. I keep things simple. And I use brands that are made with natural organic ing…

We are being poisoned.

I wish this wasn’t true, but it is. Bayer, the foreign corporation that bought Monsanto, is trying to take away your ability to sue them if you get cancer after using Roundup weed killer. Juries across the country have already found that Roundup caused non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and that people were …

What I eat to stop sugar cravings

One of the biggest surprises people share after doing the Food Babe 7-Day Sugar Detox isn’t just fewer cravings. It’s how much they genuinely love the food. Here’s what I hear over and over again: “I have eaten more delicious food this week than I have in my entire life.” "The recipes are amazing…

This is important

Huge news blew my mind this week. The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans were released… and WOW. They are finally telling Americans the truth. Artificial sweeteners, flavors, dyes, and preservatives don’t belong in our food. And REAL FOOD heals your health. This is what the Food Babe Army has b…

Why cravings aren’t your fault

The food industry doesn’t want you to know the truth about sugar. There’s a reason sugar is in almost everything you buy at the store – even organic and so-called “health food” products. That’s not an accident. The food industry knows how addictive sugar is, and that’s why they put it in just abo…

7 days without sugar. See the results

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is this: Your diet is either sabotaging you…or healing you. A few years back, I had to re-learn that lesson myself. I let old habits creep back in and found myself dealing with a full-blown candy addiction. I broke out in eczema all over my body. That was a…

I can’t believe I ate this (are you too?)

I’m a little embarrassed to admit this. But, I didn’t think this was a problem… until it was. Although I eat healthy most of the time, I’ve always had a sweet tooth. This comes back to bite me if I’m not careful. A few years back, I went completely off the rails. I started eating candy every nigh…

Don’t make this mistake

If you’re anything like me in the new year, you want to get back on track with your eating after the holidays and cut back on sugar. The last few weeks have been filled with endless cookies and treats… and I need a reset. But here’s the thing. Most people try to quit sugar the wrong way. They rel…

Happy New Year! This is perfect for today

Happy New Year! Can you relate to my friend? She told me that eating healthy is easy for her, but that her sweet tooth is out of control at night. The mistake? She was depriving herself during the day and expecting to have self-control at night. So, I told her to simply enjoy her favorite treats …

Did you hear the news? Stop eating this!

As the new year approaches, the food industry is already back to its dirty tricks. A trade association representing petroleum-based dye makers for BIG food companies like PEPSI, COCA COLA and MARS just won in court to temporarily block West Virginia’s ban on artificial dyes. The governor is now e…

Do you use "REAL" salt everyday on your food?

For years, I never thought twice about the salt sitting in my kitchen. Salt is salt, right? Not quite.  Most table salt has been stripped of its natural minerals, bleached white, and loaded with anti-caking agents and other additives you'd never guess was in there. Here's what's hiding in convent…

Big Food has a robot that mimics human taste buds?

I can’t believe I got to say this on the national news… They let me go on (and on) about the dirty tactics Big Food uses to addict Americans to their products.  Americans need to know the truth.  PepsiCo literally has a ROBOT that mimics human taste buds, to make sure you’ll crave their products …
