My Favorite Snack Bar Recipe (5 Ingredients)

I am so sick and tired of the nasty ingredients hiding in conventional “healthy” snack bars. Refined Sugar. Carrageenan. Sugar Alcohols. I stay as far away from that crap as possible.  But there is this snack bar recipe that I have been OBSESSED with lately… And it's made with just 5 organic ingre…

Why do some brands do this?

If you wanted to make a snack bar at home, what ingredients would you use? Of course, you’re going to pick the right side… No one buys ingredients from the left side on their own.  And this is what makes The Only Bar so special. It’s made with organic ingredients you can find in your kitchen. Rig…

European Approves The Truvani Only Bar

You know how I hate how companies use different ingredients in America than they do in Europe? Well, I’ve got a story for you.  Gabriele is a member of the Truvani team. He’s Italian. He lives in Italy. When he first heard of The Only Bar, he was worried. He knows that some companies in the U.S. l…

Is this ingredient giving you a Bubble Gut?

The other day my friend told me that she had been drinking a bottled protein shake every morning, and she suspected that it was making her feel like she had a “bubble gut” a few hours later.  You know that feeling when you have to unzip your pants because they feel too tight?  When you feel so blo…

If you chew gum, read this

I used to be ADDICTED to gum. I would totally freak out if I didn’t have some in my purse or pantry after eating.  I was led to believe if I chewed gum, I would reach less for sugary substances and it would help me maintain my weight. But after giving up this habit over 12 years ago, I’ve never be…

Feeling good and enjoying dessert

I know it sounds controversial… But my secret health “reboot” this Spring will be… dessert. Not just any type of dessert, though…  Dessert made with better ingredients that will help me hit my goals. For example, I always add Truvani’s Plant-Based Protein Powder. It makes any recipe taste incredib…

Alarming news about Chick-fil-a - please spread the word

It was my birthday last week…but I got the worst news. That morning my friend DM’d me: “Someone sent me this!” Along with a screenshot from Chick-fil-A’s app stating that they’re canceling their “No Antibiotics Ever” standard, and would start selling chicken raised with antibiotics this Spring. Wh…

Spring Break Sale

I had a friend confess to me that the first few months of 2024 didn’t go as planned. She skipped workouts, slept in more, and didn’t stick to her usual healthy habits. And now that Spring is here, she’s feeling overwhelmed. If you’re feeling this way too… First - You are not alone!  And second - I…

Tell Kellogg’s to stop poisoning our kids

I’ve been working to make a change to Kellogg’s cereals for nearly 10 years. I launched my 2nd petition to Kellogg's in 2019, asking them to keep their promise to dump the artificial dyes and BHT from their cereals.  The Food Babe Army went wild sharing this petition and as I was getting ready to …

I need your help

My dear friend and activist Jason Karp launched a major legal campaign on Kellogg’s today. He hired one of the top lawyers in the country, Alex Spiro, and sent a letter to Kelllogg’s last night demanding that they sell Americans the same cereals they sell in other countries without artificial dyes…

Two cancer-causing ingredients in your food

I have been wondering if this was going to happen for a long time. Finally, the harm that processed foods cause is getting the attention it deserves. Every morning I wake up and get notified about yet ANOTHER new study finding that the ingredients in processed food are causing cancer, heart diseas…

Selling out - get one before they are gone

This week, we launched our NEW Truvani Signature Tote in Pink.  Even though it’s valued at $50, it’s free when you spend $35 or more on your favorite Truvani products. People are going crazy for it. And adding it to their orders quickly.  Supplies are starting to run low.   Our totes sell out almo…

This email is dedicated to all the “experts” who criticized my work.  To the people who called me a “Food Bimbo”, a “Fearmonger”, and a “Quack”.  And to the dietitians who think drinking Diet Coke and feeding your kids Kellogg’s Froot Loops is totally fine. They are wrong. My warnings have now be…

Yesterday, we launched our NEW Truvani Tote in our Signature Pink. This is a BIG deal. Why? Because these totes have a history of selling out… They’re beautiful. They’re durable. And people use them for everything.  The gym, carry-on, farmer’s market and so much more. But this year, we upleveled t…

Poison in moderation?

Last week I shared a clip from my interview on The Spillover podcast on my Instagram page and it’s reached 2 million views!  Someone quipped in the comments: “You can pry the Chick-fil-A from my cold dead hands.” This comment made me remember why I do what I do. Fast food companies and the big pro…

Does this happen to you at the grocery store?

Sometimes it feels like a game of Whac-A-Mole when you’re grocery shopping. You pick up a container of hummus and flip it over to read the ingredients. WAM!  Soybean oil. You pick up a bottle of salad dressing and flip it over to read the ingredients. BAM!  Canola oil. You pick up a jar of mayo an…

A big mistake?

Despite where Truvani is today, you wouldn’t believe some of the mistakes we made along the way… We almost screwed up the launch of our first-ever product in 2017: Turmeric. When we launched, we decided to order 5,000 bottles to start.  One hour into the launch, we had to call our manufacturer: “W…

It's a big birthday

It’s already been 6 years since we launched Truvani. Wow. If you know my story, I started as an online food activist… working with “Big Food” companies to reform their ingredients.  I haven’t stopped since. But to put it shortly, they don’t change fast enough.  So I took matters into my own hands …

The ONLY Bar I eat!

Making our snack bar, The Only Bar, was by far the hardest thing we’ve ever done.  We almost gave up… but had we done that, we would not have sold over 2 million of these bars today. You know our ingredient standards are strict, which made creating this bar incredibly difficult.  How? Just check o…

End the day with a little treat (that's actually real food)

I’ve always been the type of person to wind down at the end of a long day with a little treat. It’s a ritual. Sometimes as simple as a piece of organic dark chocolate.  But when I was pregnant, I got in the habit of eating an entire bag of organic licorice right before bed. They were basically “em…

Avoid these 5 snack bar ingredients

Before you grab another box of snack bars at the store, you need to know this. There is a concept called “green-washing” where companies market their bars as "healthy" or “organic” on the front…  But the ingredients list on the back says otherwise… filled with ingredients I would never want in my …

You won't believe how much sugar is in this

You’re probably eating way more sugar than you think. Almost every processed food contains it…even organic and so-called “health food” products. The food industry knows sugar is addicting, and that’s why they put it in just about everything! It’s easy to down 32 teaspoons (2/3 cup!) in a single da…
