You probably know that calcium is good for your bones… and maybe you knew that Vitamin D is as well. But do you know why? I’ll tell you… your body needs Vitamin D to absorb the calcium. And how these two work in tandem is not exclusive to calcium and Vitamin D. Vitamin C, can enhance iron absorption from supplements and plant foods. And vitamins A, D, and E are fat-soluble, meaning they will absorb better if taken with a meal that contains fat (preferably, healthy fat like avocados or olive oil).

What’s my primary point?

KNOW WHY YOU ARE DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING. And remember the importance of having balanced meals… the more colors of the rainbow on your plate, the better.

As a busy mom of three young children, I had neglected my nutrition and fitness for many years. I was at a point where I was tired all the time and felt bad about my health, fitness and physical appearance… Kim was extremely encouraging and provided the accountability I needed to stay on track to reach my goals. I was able to exceed my goal by losing 17 pounds and over 13 inches! I also have more energy, feel healthier, and feel better about myself too. Kim has also been able to help me develop a plan to maintain going forward… I am extremely grateful to Kim for her encouragement, tips and genuine care in seeing me reach my fitness goals. I couldn’t have done it without her!
