Hi my name is Keely. I am 12 years old and love to experiment in the kitchen, write stories and plays, play violin, piano and sing. At around age 2 I got really sick after having some caps put in my mouth that we found out a year later I was allergic to. My immune system was stressed out from attacking the nickel and cadmium in the caps and from this my body got really out of balance causing many health problems. From there my body became a allergic to 35 different foods, I cried all the time, couldn’t sleep among many other things. My mom couldn’t buy anything at the store that was already packaged or made and she started making everything from scratch. It was hard at first for her to find recipes that tasted good and that I would eat. Included in these allergies were dairy, gluten, soy, eggs, rice, oats, apples, coconut, almonds and garlic just to name a few. My mom started this blog to start keeping track of all the recipes she was making that I liked and could eat. As I got older I started helping my mom in the kitchen and now I love to create my own smoothies and come up with my own healthy recipes. After lots of hard work with my diet, supplements and healing my body, I now only have 3 allergies, gluten, dairy and walnuts but I still stay away from packaged processed foods and try to stay on a wholefood diet. I stay away from food dyes and try my hardest to stay away from GMO foods. I hope with this blog I can teach other kids and parents to eat healthy.
This is my little sister, she helps me out in the kitchen and she loves to make her own smoothies. She doesn’t have any food allergies but eats healthy with me. She loves drinking fresh juices especially ones with carrot juice and can’t get enough cucumbers. Even though she is my younger sister she is always watching out for me and sticking up for me. At the park recently she said to some boys “Don’t you talk to my sister like that, nobody talks to my sister like that nobody!” She is super loving, sweet and has a large collection of purses and organic lipsticks while at the same time she is tough, tells people off if she doesn’t like what they are saying to her and compliments everyone on their tattoos asking my mom when she can get one. A true Gemini.
My mom, is a life-long health enthusiast with a passion for helping people achieve optimum health. She started her business, Radiant Body Restful Mind over 20 years ago helping people through massage and within the last three years as a Colon Hydrotherapist, Kundalini Yoga Instructor, Nutrition Coach and the last year as a Bionetic Practitioner. But most important she loves being a mom, she homeschools us and helps to make sure we stay healthy. She has contributed articles to an Australian health web site on allergies and special diets for kids. She also enjoys reading and learning about all aspects of health, creating and enjoying new recipes, yoga, dancing, music, nature, and is a huge animal lover.
On starting this website, from my mom: This website focuses on Gluten, Dairy, Soy, and lots of Egg free recipes. Keely is the inspiration for this website. This little girl is my hero and a true angel. At first trying to figure out what she could eat was quite overwhelming but we finally got into a rhythm and we made it fun and now it is a lifestyle.
