Live Your Best Life
Advice, Tips, and Best Practices from Our Health Coaches and Wellness Partners
The fall can be a wonderful time of year with the crisp air finally cooling things down and much anticipated change arrives. It is also a time to get back to routines and new schedules especially if you’re a busy mom. Seasons of change and extra load on our lives is exactly the time we need to turn to prioritizing health and self-care.
Meet Ku Adofo-Mensah, a Senior Digital Design Strategist in New York and dedicated Provenance client who eats with us to help calm her endometriosis. After years of discomfort and having her symptoms consistently misdiagnosed, she shares her “aha” moment and how she has finally taken control of her condition.
At Provenance, we believe that when you keep your microbiome in balance, your overall health improves and maintaining balanced energy levels, weight and mood are no longer a struggle. Our philosophy of detoxing is one that relies on the proven principles of functional medicine to heal your gut with delicious foods and beverages that flood your body with nutrients plus targeted probiotics supplements to support your digestion.
With external influences of environment, work, and COVID-19 affecting our hormones, how can we support its balance through food? Our in-house nutrition experts teamed up with a group of powerhouse female health coaches at Parsley Health to shed light on the do’s and don’t’s of nutrition while navigating through the many stages of womanhood. Let’s take a closer look at the impact nutrition has on hormonal health.
With health being this year’s focal point, it is time to reclaim the true essence of what cleansing can and should be: an opportunity to heal and strengthen. In an effort to redefine the word “cleanse,” we reached out to our wellness partners at Parsley Health to share their insights on the real meaning, benefits, and proper ways to practice.
Introducing the Food as Medicine Journal, an introspective series on the unique experiences of food as medicine, the philosophy that Provenance Meals is built on. Joining us for the inaugural entry is Christina Yannello, skin and body-positivity advocate and owner of Bare Faced Femme. Outside her career in Real Estate, this New Yorker cultivates an uplifting atmosphere for her online community to help others build self-confidence and foster healthy well-being.
We are fanatics when it comes to hydration. Water truly is the elixir of life. Proper hydration helps our bodies regulate temperature, lubricate our joints, fight infections, and more. Many of us may also be familiar with the importance of staying hydrated when it comes to an anti-aging and beauty routine. Water helps keep your skin supple, dense, and elastic which prevents the development of fine lines. Not to mention that water is crucial to nail and hair health as well. But today we're exploring another key benefit of staying hydrated - weight loss.
2020 is officially the year of adaptation, and growing out of comfort zones. Nature has been forcing us all to rest and focus on our health, which means there has never been a better opportunity to start fresh and do a cleanse or detox. If you are looking to cleanse or detox, here are some thoughts to consider to help you decide which one is the perfect fit.
As members of the health + wellness community and believers in food as medicine, what Provenance Meals practices daily stems from deep, traditional roots. It has become clear to us that our industry falls short of honoring our origins and, while vital to everyone’s wellbeing, is only accessible and approachable to a select few. With this, we recognize that we need to amplify and celebrate our Black peers more. We want to show gratitude to those we have been fortunate to work with in the past, and hold space for powerful voices that are new to us. In this post you will find a mixture of Black healers, creators, thinkers, and educators who have inspired us in our professional and personal journeys of wellbeing.
