If you`ve been struggling with bloating, sluggish digestion, or that heavy feeling after meals, read on...
Bitter foods like arugula, dandelion greens, radicchio, endive, and grapefruit do something pretty remarkable: they trigger your digestive system to wake up.
That slightly sharp, pungent taste actually activates receptors on your tongue that signal your stomach to produce more acid, stimulate bile flow, and get those digestive enzymes moving, so your body can break down food more efficiently.
Think of it as a gentle nudge to your gut: "hey, food is coming, let`s get ready."
A few easy ways to add them in:
→ Toss arugula into your next salad or pasta
→ Sip on a small glass of grapefruit juice before meals
→ Add dandelion greens to a smoothie (they`re milder than you`d expect!)
→ Try radicchio on a flatbread or grain bowl
You don`t have to overhaul your diet, just start with one. Small additions, real results. Your gut will thank you. 💚

Here is what else our May Client of the Month shared with us:
🧑🧑🧒🧒 What is your "why" that keeps you motivated?
I`ve watched both my parents struggle with their health as they get older, which has really impacted their ability to interact with their grandkids. On the other hand, both my grandmothers are well into their 90s and still living full lives. The biggest difference is that my grandmother`s both really prioritized their health by maintaining their weight, prioritizing good nutrition, and staying active. I have three amazing kids and I know that if I want to finish the second half of my life well, I need to follow my grandmother`s example and cultivate good habits now so that I can be there for my kids and hopefully one day grandkids. My faith also keeps me motivated. I have been gifted this body and this life and want to make the most of it, honor God with it, and use it to do good and bless others. I can`t do that if I am not feeling well and can`t move well.
🏋️♂️ What`s your favorite form of movement?
It`s hard to choose, but it`s a tie between weight lifting and walking/running. I love lifting heavy weights, but I also love being outside and walking, especially with a friend.
🌱 What`s your favorite nutrient-rich food you`ve added to your diet?
Chia and basil seeds. They are a great addition to so many foods and are great source of fiber. I love how versatile they are.
🙏 What`s your favorite stress management technique?
Praying and going for walk. If I can get outside, breathe the fresh air, and just let my heart be still, I feel anchored and it lets my nervous system rest. I also love to pray and God`s peace comes over me.

Let`s congratulate Erin together!! 👇

If you`ve been loading up on fiber and still not going, here`s what`s actually happening: without enough water, movement, and digestive support, extra fiber just sits there. It bulks up with nowhere to go. That`s more bloating, more pressure, more frustration.
Here`s what most people miss:
🍋 Your gut needs bitter foods to get things moving... arugula, dandelion greens, lemon, and apple cider vinegar before meals. These stimulate digestive juices, stomach acid, and enzymes that signal your whole digestive system to wake up. Most people have never heard this and it`s a game changer.
🦠 Fermented foods are the other underrated one: a daily serving of kimchi, kefir, sauerkraut, or miso feeds the bacteria that actually regulate motility. Not a probiotic pill. Real, fermented food.
🧪 And if you`re doing all of this and still struggling? That`s your body asking for a deeper look: thyroid function, gut infections, motility disorders.
Constipation is a symptom, not a diagnosis.
Swipe through for all 7 strategies, and save this one because your gut will thank you later. 💩🙌
Here`s what Hannah`s clients have to say...
"I have had the best experience working with Hannah! She recommended a supplement to me that settled almost 5 years of stomach issues in just a few weeks, I am so unbelievably grateful for her knowledge and expertise."
"Hannah is the best. I felt comfortable discussing all of the challenges I was experiencing. After reviewing my genetic test results I wanted to focus on my overall health. With Hannah`s help I made a few changes and my overall health started improving. The lab results were a guide to the supplements that could support my health. Giving my body what it was lacking and getting my inflammation under control made a huge difference."
"Hannah is so knowledgeable! I also feel that she truly wants to help me! (Since starting with Hannah a couple months ago) I have been more intentional about 1) eating breakfast, 2) eating protein at breakfast, 3) increasing my protein throughout the day. And my Body Scan showed that I`ve increased muscle after a few months. Also, my husband (who also sees Hannah) has remarked how LIFE CHANGING her advice was to stop eating a Clif Bar for breakfast. We didn`t realize it had 17g of sugar in it. He has now shifted to something with less sugar and more protein and no longer gets tired 2 hours into his work day. He is blown away that this one change has made such a difference!"

With the change in seasons, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed or behind.
Leaning into the change by soaking up the sunshine and warmth whenever possible can help make that transition easier!
The extra light in the morning and evenings can be filled with:
☀️ Sunrise or Sunset walks
✍️ Enjoying reading or journaling with fresh air
🍹 Creating a mocktail to enjoy outside with dinner
🧘 Take your at-home workout or meditation to the grass
Nature is medicine even in small doses! Being in natural light both early and late in the evening supports circadian rhythm, which has several downstream positive impacts on your health.

Let`s all strive to lead with kindness, understanding that it`s a powerful force for healing and positive change. ✨️🌟💫

this May -- the Spring Greens Challenge! 🥬
It sounds simple, but this small habit can make a big nutritional boost to your day.
Adding a handful of mixed greens is one of the easiest ways to boost your fiber, support digestion, and get in a variety of vitamins and minerals…without overthinking it.
And the best part? This doesn’t mean you need to eat a salad every day.
You can:
• Blend greens into smoothies
• Toss them into eggs or breakfast tacos
• Add a handful to sandwiches or wraps
• Stir them into pasta, soups, or grain bowls
• Sauté them as an easy dinner side
As always...our goal isn’t perfection, it’s consistency. A small daily habit like this helps you build momentum, support your health, and make balanced eating feel more doable.
Join us this month and see how easy it can be to show up for yourself in a simple way 💚
Comment CHALLENGE and we’ll send you everything you need to get started, including the tracker sheet with bonus materials!
Spring is officially farmers market season 🌿✨
We pulled together a list of local farmers markets in Springfield, Dayton, Yellow Springs, Columbus, and Cincinnati so you can find fresh, seasonal produce closer to home.
Save this for your weekend plans and share it with someone who loves a good market stroll 🧺
As dietitians, we love farmers markets because they make it easier to:
🥕 Eat more seasonal, nutrient-dense foods
🥬 Try a wider variety of fruits and vegetables
🌽 Support local growers and food systems
🍓 Make healthy eating feel more enjoyable (and less rigid)
🥖 Build meals around real, minimally processed ingredients
There’s something about shopping from local farmers that naturally brings more variety and intention to your plate.
Save this post for later—and send it to your farmers market partner 👇

Hannah here! If you’ve ever wondered how a functional dietitian shops at Whole Foods…this is it 🛒✨
And because the reel couldn’t fit everything, here are a few more staples that made it into my cart:
• Kevin’s Paleo Orange Chicken
• Jovial brown rice pasta
• Freshly ground raw peanut butter
• Rao’s brick oven uncured pepperoni frozen pizza
• Organic frozen dark sweet cherries (365 brand)
When I shop, I’m thinking about building meals that support blood sugar, digestion, and energy...
That usually looks like:
✔️ Tons of fruits and veggies for fiber, phytonutrients + prebiotics
✔️ Easy protein options
✔️ Healthy fats
✔️ A few convenience foods to make real life easier
