While studying to become a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, we read quite a few books, Below are a few which I loved and I think you will too!

The Stress Solution by Dr. Rangan Chatterjee explores how modern lifestyles contribute to chronic stress and offers practical, science-backed strategies to reclaim calm and balance. Through his “4 Pillars” approach—Purpose, Relationships, Body, and Mind—he empowers readers to build resilience and live more peacefully in a fast-paced world.
The Nourished Kitchen by Jennifer McGruther is a traditional foods cookbook that emphasizes whole, seasonal, and nutrient-dense ingredients prepared using time-honored techniques like fermentation, soaking, and slow cooking. It combines delicious, farm-to-table recipes with practical wisdom to help readers reconnect with the healing power of real food.

Electrolytes – No Sugar or Sweeteners

Powder 32 Double Strength Packets, Naturally Salty Electrolyte Drink Mix w/Sodium, Potassium & Magnesium | Daily Hydration, Muscle Recovery, Immune Support | Keto, Paleo, No Sugar. Great for Travel
REDMOND Re-Lyte Hydration Electrolyte Powder Mix (Unflavored). If you love the taste of pure, natural salt, then Unflavored Re-Lyte is for you. It doesn’t contain any natural flavors or sweeteners, but it’s not flavorless. It has a strong salty flavor thanks to the Real Salt it contains. The serving size is 1 scoop (5g), but you don’t have to drink a full serving all at once if that’s too salty for your palate. Start by adding a quarter or half scoop to your water bottle, and then add another quarter or half when you refill. I also sometimes mix this with a flavored sweetened Re-Lyte to get a softer sweetness.
Electrolytes – Sweetened
REDMOND Re-Lyte Hydration Electrolyte Powder Mix (Watermelon Lime). There are lots of other flavors but Watermelon Lime is my favorite!
Feel Goods Hydration Hero, 1,000mg Electrolytes Powder, Sugar Free, Magnesium, Organic Aloe Vera, Organic Aloe, L Theanine, Vitamin C & B12, Non GMO, Keto, Vegan | Guava Fresca, 30 Servings. A little on the sweeter side, but I love the Guava flavor.
