Each year at Natural Products Expo West, newhope360.com invites a select group of natural living and food bloggers we call the We.Blog team to cover this behemoth event. These natural-lifestyle enthusiasts will be posting about the products, speakers and other events at the show. Look for their posts on newhope360.com, as well as through their own sites, Facebook pages and Twitter feeds. We’re excited to see what they find and learn!
Blog: Celiac and the Beast Twitter: @celiacbeast Instagram: @celiacandthebeast My dream foodie find would be...: Gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free frozen pizza kit. Someone needs to get on this! Products catch my eye when...:They are certified gluten-free. That means a brand has put hard work behind their products.
Blog: Sarah Kay Hoffman Twitter: @sarahkayhoffman I blog because...: I blog about finding beauty in life, no matter what the circumstances might be, and healing via food and lifestyle vs. drugs and medication. I live with autoimmune colits, infertility, a low thyroid, SIBO and adrenal fatigue. They are a part of who I am, but they do not define who I am. I believe in holistic healing, real wellness and living a life worth inspiring others. My blog comprises all of these things and taglines: When gravel roads are all you've ever known, you learn to find beauty in the dust. At Expo West, I'll be looking for...: I'll be looking for companies who stand for something and are driven by a higher purpose and mission (similar to my own, A Loving Spoon nut butters). I'll be looking for companies with a story to tell and meaning to company and product. Finally, I'll be looking for products which are the reflection of true wellness, while containing minimal ingredients and great flavor!
Blog: Mommy Greenest Twitter: @rachellsarnoff Instagram: @rachellsarnoff I blog because...: I blog about a healthier lifestyle with less judgment because I believe that positivity is the best way to inspire change. There’s enough finger-pointing and shaming in this world already! As my great-grandmother always said, “You catch more flies with sugar than salt.” Right? I'm in love with...: The way the sustainability movement has inspired so many amazing products, which allow us to follow our instincts about what’s best for ourselves and our families—without sacrifice.
Blog: Fit & Awesome Twitter: @LTsurf Instagram: @LTsurf Products catch my eye when: They have less than 5 ingredients. My favorite Expo West experience was when: My favorite Expo West experience was walking the halls and not really having to ask if anything was gluten free because usually it was the first thing that people told me when presenting their products. To me it symbolized how much of a market there is for gluten-free products and how much it’s grown over the years.
Blog: GF Jules Twitter: @THEgfJules Instagram: @gfJules Products catch my eye when: There is somebody real behind the brand. You can tell at a booth right away if the staff has passion and believes in the brand (a must), but when there is also a real person with a real fire in their belly for why they thought the world needed their product, it makes you fall in love with it, too. At Expo West, I'll be looking for: Certified gluten-free, dairy-free (preferably vegan) products that value the taste of the ingredients they do use as much as they value leaving other ingredients out. Also on a hunt for non-GMO and any packaging that is progressive in their labeling.
Blog: Gluten Free Go-To Guide Twitter: @gfgotoguide Gluten free is great because...: Because it keeps me healthy and allows me to lead a full life full of yummy gluten-free food. Health matters to our nation because...: Because they way we eat affects our health, so why not choose products that will extend our lives and keep us off of prescription drugs?
Blog: My Vegan Journal Twitter: @MyVeganJournal I blog because...: I love inspiring folks to enjoy a happy, compassionate lifestyle that’s great for the environment, the animals and their health! I love enabling people to make informed decisions when it comes to wellness. Good health and compassion are so important; they're the building blocks that allow everything else in our lives to fall into place. At Expo West, I'll be looking for: A wide range of vegan products, from the super healthy raw and organic vegan fare to the very indulgent, special occasion vegan sweet treats. I like finding something for everyone!
Blog: Eco-Vegan Gal Twitter: @ecovegangal YouTube: ecovegangal Products catch my eye when: They are as unprocessed as possible; simple ingredients lists are my preference. When a brand gets really creative with healthy, whole, organic food combinations I'm thrilled! At Expo, I'll be looking for...: The healthiest and most innovative vegan products. I will be covering unique foods, home goods and body care. Organic, plant-based products in eco-friendly packaging are the holy grail!
Blog: The Health Crunch Twitter: @soulclarity Instagram: @soulclarity My dream foodie find would be...: A non-HPP organic green juice grown from a juice shop that has its own garden in the backyard, added with probiotics they grow, with the option to "bulletproof" it with organic, grass-fed butter. Then top it with some bee pollen. #done! Products catch my eye when: They're using medicinal ingredients, they are certified (or soon to be certified) B-Corps, and when they're doing something new. I like companies that push the envelope in a way that makes sense.
