Mary Ruth Organics

 One of the most common questions I get asked on Instagram is, "What vitamins do you give the girls?"

First I want to say, I'm not a doctor and everybody is different.  I'm just sharing what vitamins I give my girls.

I've been using Mary Ruth's vitamins for a couple years now. They use clean ingredients and the girls love them.



This is the probiotic I use for my girls and myself. I like it because it has no taste at all and comes with a spray or dropper option which is easy with little ones.



These vitamin C gummies are so tasty. I give them to the girls year round.



These vitamin D gummies are the girls favourite. They're so good. And I love that they combine the two vitamins together.


Zinc is another supplement I use year round, but especially in the winter months. I haven't used this one from Mary Ruth's yet because it's new, but it will be on my next order for sure. 


And lastly, this multimineral nighttime liquid (which I get in pineapple) has worked amazing for us. Addison and I take it right before bed and both sleep so well. I've run out so I have to purchase it again and now that Ava is old enough, she can have it too. 

So these are the vitamins I use for the girls! In the winter Zinc, Vit C and Vit D is huge for the immune system. 

I also supplement with B12 and folate because we have the MTHFR gene but that's a whole other post! 



And right now Mary Ruth's has 25% off for their Black Friday sale!

The Best Gluten and Dairy free Snacks!

Hello all! Wow, it's been a while since I last posted on here. If you haven't been following me on Instagram (or in real life) lately, we are now a family of four! It's been a busy few weeks with two little ones, but I wouldn't change it for anything. I mean, just look at this little peanut.




Anyways! I've been meaning to make this post for a while now. For those who don't know, my daughter, Addison has had some gut issues her whole life (Good news though-I'm pretty sure she's almost finally on the mend! That'll be another post.) So finding snacks that are free of all the allergens/inflammatory foods and that still taste good is hard to do. If you're living a gluten free, dairy free or  vegan lifestyle I hope this post helps!

Here's some of our favourite snacks ( they all have minimal ingredients):

If you can't have corn, these are great tortilla chips! They're made with cassava flour and are nice and light.

These almond crackers are a good alternative to your typical rice or corn crackers. They taste yummy and have a lot of different flavours to choose from.

These cookies are great if you have a sweet tooth! Addison loves them.

This is our favourite "ice cream". Again, minimal ingredients and it's sweetened with honey so I don't feel guilty giving it to my daughter. 

If you like cheesies, then you will love these cauliflower puffs - We do! And a bonus, they have probiotics in them!


I order most of these foods from Natura Market . They have so many healthy goodies to choose from, from paleo to vegan.



If you have any treats you love, please let me know! I'm always looking for healthy goodies.
