Hello, and welcome! I’m Carolyn Akens—thank you for stopping by!

When you shop with me, you’re supporting a faith-based business that truly cares about your health and well-being. As a disciple of Jesus Christ, a mother and grandmother, an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, a Master Raw Food Chef, a baker, and a published author, I’ve learned how deeply what we eat affects how we feel physically, mentally, and spiritually.

My passion is helping others return to real, nourishing food especially when it comes to grains. Today’s grocery store shelves are filled with overly processed breads made from refined flour, sprayed with glyphosate, and loaded with additives. These so-called “healthy” options often contribute to poor gut health, which research shows is the root of many illnesses, not just heredity as we’ve been led to believe.

Grains are a God-given food, and when handled with care, they nourish the body the way He intended. That’s why I freshly mill organic grains myself, using a stone mill, just before baking. This preserves the full nutrition of the whole grain—bran, germ, and endosperm.

• Bran: The fiber-rich outer layer that helps support digestion and regulate blood sugar.

• Germ: The nutrient-packed core containing vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats that support your immune and cardiovascular systems.

• Endosperm: The energy source of the grain, providing complex carbs and protein.

I use only four to six simple, gut-friendly ingredients in my recipes—no preservatives or fillers—so you can feel good about what you’re feeding your family.

Eating whole grains the way God designed them is a powerful step toward better health. According to the Mayo Clinic, incorporating whole grains can support healthy cholesterol levels, weight management, blood pressure, and reduce the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes and heart disease.

I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s reclaim health, one nourishing bite at a time.
