Hello everyone! I just wanted to THANK all of you in advance for taking the time to read this. I promise you that I will bring you the BEST information on nutrition, products, recipes, etc. I possibly can. So…I’m not a doctor of any kind (nor do I plan to be), I’m not a nutritionist (although maybe one day), and I’m not an expert on anything that I will be talking about (my disclaimer, ha!) I’m a “normal” woman, lady, sister, daughter, wife, friend, etc. that decided she was going to stop letting people (especially the medical industry) tell her what to do and think and take charge of her own life. What does that mean, you ask? That means that I believe in doing my own research, I ask questions, look for 2, 3, 4, 5 opinions, before I make a decision. Yes, that takes time, but believe me, it’s worth it! We have to stop being lazy (me included) and do what’s best for us, our families, do what’s in our best interest, not THIERS (whomever “THEY” are) and become better people, a better society.
My grandmother passed away in 2007 from a severe case of pneumonia (which she contracted while in the hospital) and my world changed dramatically…I want to stay positive and say for the better. I became obsessed with health, foods I ate, chemicals we put in our body without even knowing, everyday things that affect our lives in the long run. Which is the reason why I wanted to start this blog. I also suffer from hypothyroidism and I’m pretty sure I’ve had it almost all my life, also due to the poor nutrition (it hurts my mom when I say this, sorry mom!), but just to be clear, we had homemade food everyday growing up…so why poor nutrition? More on that later…
This is my chance to share to the world what I have learned, my experiences, the good, the bad, and the ugly…and of course the beautiful too! Take what you want and toss what you don’t. If I knew then, what I know now, I would not be here, so things happen for a reason. If I at least help one person through my journey…then it was all worth it!
I hope you enjoy and always remember that you are BEautiful! Let’s live a Pure Beauty Lifestyle!
Lots of hugs,
Jessica

this is dedicated to the woman who helped create the person I am today, in which without her in my life I would not be who I am. thank you for being there for me always! i miss you everyday of my life…my rock, my light, my confidant Graciela Mora r.i.p.
Your blog looks amazing and I’m excited to read on all the research you have done.
Thank you Brynda for your support!
OMG, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism after I had my daughter! I was devastated when I found out, I thought I was going to DIE!!!! (Dumb Me). I knew nothing about the condition, and since I had always been a runner and in good health, I FREAKED OUT!!!!! I have a friend at work that said that her hypothyroidism disappeared after taking her meds for 3 years?! I am hopeful (fingers crossed!!!). I am curious, how have you dealt with the condition? Do you religiously take your meds? Does it remain at low levels, even when meds are not taken everyday? I was told by my doctor that I was going to have to be on meds for LIFE?! Especially, if I want more kids, because it can be transferred to the baby?! Yikes!!!!
