October brings crisp air and the pull of the kitchen. This issue leans into the season with fall produce, the case for a good pot of soup, and one habit that saves you time all week: cook once, serve twice. You will also find three research pieces from Lisa, on how fructose affects your metabolism, how even occasional heavy drinking can harm the liver, and how ultra-processed foods may sap your focus, each with a client handout to share. Add a hidden sugar quiz and this month's recipes, and you are set for a healthy, cozy fall.

September brings the return of routines — packed lunches, busy mornings, and the first crisp days of fall. This issue is built to help. You'll find make-ahead ideas for school-day breakfasts, lunchboxes, and after-school snacks, a guide to the season's best apples, and two research pieces from Lisa on one of the simplest blood-sugar strategies out there: what you eat first. Add in early-fall recipes and a couple of quizzes to share, and you're set for the season. Here's to a smooth, healthy start to fall.
