<p>We&#8217;re 3 months into 2018 and I really hope you&#8217;re having a great year so far!</p>
<p>Many people start off each year with resolutions, and I bet most include either &#8216;hit the gym&#8217;, &#8216;get in shape&#8217;, &#8216;eat better&#8217; or just &#8216;be healthier&#8217;.</p>
<p>Well to help out with that, I&#8217;m sharing below 5 health bloggers that I follow myself. They provide amazing ideas, plans, meals, information and more to make you a better person, and bring your health up to the next level. Also if you want to get healthier <a style="text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.dramandabrimhall.com/"><span style="text-decoration: none; color: #696969;">learn more</span></a> here.</p>
<p>In this list I&#8217;ve stayed away from group blogs like mindbodygreen.com, which are still a great resource to read. Instead these blogs are by individuals who bring different perspectives on health, but all provide great content.</p>
<p><strong>#1 &#8211; <a href="https://www.marksdailyapple.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">MarksDailyApple.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Created by ;Mark Sisson, a ;former elite endurance athlete now blogger/speaker, this blog covers a wide range of topics, from gut health to fitness to weight loss. He also has a recipe section with amazing meal ideas.<br />
He&#8217;s sharp, funny, has a tonne of information on a wide range of health subjects (check out his &#8216;gut health&#8217; category on the blog for some really in-depth articles).<br />
Much of his content is now answering questions he&#8217;s getting, so you know it has useful stuff.</p>

<p><strong>#2 &#8211; <a href="https://gretchenrubin.com/blog/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">GretchenRubin.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Gretchen is an accomplished author, podcaster and speaker. And she blogs about happiness, motivation, self-knowledge and more. Essentially, if you want to be a happier person, subscribe to her blog.<br />
One thing that I find great about her blog are the interviews. She&#8217;ll talk to New York Times authors, senior editors at magazines, and goes in-depth with them on what makes them tick.</p>

<p><strong>#3 &#8211; <a href="https://wellnessmama.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">WellnessMama.com</a></strong></p>
<p>If you want to live a more natural life in food and health, this is the blog to read.<br />
Katie blogs about everything natural, from making your own household cleaners, to staying motivated, to intermittent fasting. I really have no idea how she has so many blog posts, as she has a pretty full family as well. But she writes well and the scope of the posts are great for everyone!</p>

<p><strong>#4 &#8211; ;<a href="https://chriskresser.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ChrisKresser.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Another great blog to follow for general health topics is Chris Kresser&#8217;s. He&#8217;s great at explaining in-depth things (Like the connection between leaky gut and gallbladder problems), but does so in a way that makes it easy to read and understand.<br />
He&#8217;s also got a great reader base, which means some really good comments on his posts, and conversations going on there.</p>

<p><strong>#5 &#8211; ;<a href="http://www.rosalilium.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">rosalilium.com</a></strong></p>
<p>Living a positive life is as important as eating right. ;Elizabeth, the creator of rosalilium.com, talks of positive living in many of the posts, which range from recipes to travel to health, but always focuses on positives.<br />
I do like personal blogs that are not only informative, but also, well, personal. Elizabeth does this well, showing insight into her own life, as well as giving out great information.</p>
