One of my passions is tennis  which I learned from my athletic father at a very young age.  It’s been a love affair from the first day I set foot on those asphalt courts with the metal nets in the park and hit my first skyward lob!

For many years I’ve been on a journey to create a healthier lifestyle for myself so that I can play my best and enjoy the sport I love for a lifetime.  It’s evolved into an “organic” approach  to life which has worked extremely well for me. 

My latest creation is:

Diane’s Powerhouse Veggie Soup Delight   ©

This soup is packed with what I like to call “green” nutrition.  Each ingredient was chosen for its specific superior nutritional benefits.  My study of nutrition and experience selling nutritional products for many years along with my extensive research helped me put it together.  

It takes about 15 minutes to prepare and about 15 minutes to cook.  I make a fresh pot every few days and I’m thrilled with how great I feel since I’ve been eating it!

Ok…What’s so magical about these ingredients?   You can find out for yourself…in:

My Soup’s Health Benefits and Sources of Information

Ingredients are listed in alphabetical order, along with a colorful picture of each food, describing the health benefits I found in my research.  If you don’t have a head for science don’t worry!  I’ve done my best to write in simpler terms than I found on those “science” websites.  I learned from talking to customers about nutrition that it can be an overwhelming and complicated topic for many people.  So, it is my deep desire to present what I share on my website in a format that will be comfortable for everyone to understand.  At the bottom of each section you’ll find my website sources which I chose for their level of credibility (written by doctors, nutritionists, researchers).  There’s plenty to learn in each one so go ahead and explore!

So, now that you have your “greens” covered, what’s next?  I’m glad you asked!  Plenty…We’re just getting started!

Exercise!  As an athlete with some dance training I’ve learned a few things about exercise.  I will be sharing some techniques that work wonders for me, and you don’t have to be an “athlete” to benefit from them.  Look for these under “Physical Fitness”.
