Salmon Head Stock for Strong Bones

Recipe for Strong Bones: Salmon Head Stock

Tara Carpenter, NC.

Holistic nutritional service for people of all ages using The Body Ecology Diet (B.E.D.) to heal yeast, bacterial, & viral infections.

Salmon heads are packed with tender meat and an abundance of fat along the jawbone. They are prized for making a rich fish stock that can be used as a base for soup of all kinds and are shown to contain vitamin A, Omega-3, iron, zinc, and calcium. I felt apprehensive to make salmon head stock. I have tons of experience with chicken and other meat stocks, yet had never made fish stock and imagined the house smelling ‘fishy’!!

Carrot Cupcakes: Recipe for The Body Ecology Diet

Tara Carpenter, NC.

Holistic nutrition for people on The Body Ecology Diet (B.E.D.).

I created this recipe while working as a therapeutic chef for a client who wanted a series of baking sessions for foods allowed on The Body Ecology Diet (B.E.D). She wanted to make B.E.D. friendly baked goods for her child. We had lots of fun and her daughter loved everything!

When you’re on a healing diet that is restricted in what you can eat then enjoying something sweet that you can eat and enjoy is a gratifying experience; especially if you, or your child, have ever been denied sweetness for a long time in order to heal a specific health condition (i.e., Candida, autism). read more

I Had Hyperemesis Gravidarum: 3 times

I Had Hyperemesis Gravidarum: 3 times

Tara Carpenter, NC., CPES.

 

I had severe morning sickness, a.k.a. hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), with all three of my pregnancies and each was worse than the one before …. 12 weeks with my first son, 15 weeks with my daughter that I miscarried, and the full 40 weeks with my second son.

Labor was easy compared to the weeks and months living in a nauseas torturous state where I was unable to lift my head, read a book, or drink more than a teaspoon of water. I’d give birth any day if it meant avoiding the nausea and suffering, I felt during pregnancy.
