New Year, New Kitchen, New Goals!

Hello & Happy New Year!! It's not quite 10pm on New Year's Eve (when we wrote this), but it feels like we're already up and running in 2014. The last 24 hours of this year saw some sudden and amazing changes, and 2013 was pretty interesting across the board! It was a year of sink-or-swim where we made decisions by cultivating a zen-like focus on BMK's goals. We grew steadily, and stayed centered on our values: bringing real, unprocessed,...

Eat to Defeat : A Powerful Message

"I was diagnosed with blood cancer just over a year ago, and the only treatment doctors offered me was chemotherapy. Although I'm a believer in modern medicine, chemo just wasn't for me, so I decided to alter my diet dramatically and give my body the tools it needed to overcome my cancer.

We think the Zone Diet, the Grapefruit Diet, the Master Cleanse, the Paleo Diet, the South Beach Diet, all that crap is just that - marketing crap. Could we make a lot of money if we launched the BMK Beach Body Babe Diet and marketed the hell out if it with targeted advertising with photos of glistening nearly naked triathletes?...

New Years Goals

What if this year, instead of creating the same list of New Years Resolutions you simply changed your lifestyle? What if instead of making goals, you changed your attitude about life? What if instead of trying to fit into a size smaller pants, you tried to have a healthy body? And why don't those New Year's Resolutions ever stick past March!?? Goals are Temporary While there's nothing wrong with wanting to lose those last stubborn 5 lbs, that's...

Cortisol, Stress, Diet and Your Body

A friend texted me last night to say that her cortisol levels came back as exceedingly high and wanted to know what (if anything) diet could do to bring this back into balance. I love a good challenge, and the minute I heard "cortisol" I thought "stress" and given her busy life, high-responsibility job, being a mom, wife and it being the holiday season it made perfect sense. Instead of just sharing it with her, I thought this would be a...
