Hi there, we’re Victoria and Eric, the faces behind The Healthy Dose.
The Healthy Dose isn’t something that happened overnight. It started after losing my dad to glioblastoma. That’s when I began digging into what’s actually in our food and everyday products. I’m not saying that’s what specifically caused his cancer — but what I found was eye-opening.
Eric and I slowly started eating more organic foods, cutting out junk, and paying attention to ingredients. Then I read Good Energy by Dr. Casey Means, and everything really clicked. We got more strict on what we eat, started working out more (in all honesty, Eric more than me haha). But most importantly, we feel better than ever. This isn’t a diet — it’s how our bodies were meant to eat.
One day I decided I wanted to share more of our health journey — what we’ve learned, what we’re still learning, and what we continue to discover along the way. That’s when Eric and I created The Healthy Dose on Instagram. The name felt like the perfect fit — sharing “doses” of health advice to cut through the noise. Because when every voice online is competing for your attention with conflicting advice, it becomes too much. We wanted to create a place where people feel guided, not lectured, and without fear mongering. And we’re still on this journey ourselves — learning, adjusting, and sharing as we go. Most recently this led me to enroll in a naturopathy practitioners course.
These days, my writing lives over on Substack, where I share our journey in a more personal way — a publication called rooted with vic. It grew out of everything above: a desire to reconnect with our food, slow down, and get back to the basics, minus the noise. This website is home to our recipes, wellness guides, and the Provisions Index — the products and brands we actually use and trust.
So welcome to The Healthy Dose. We hope this space helps make this lifestyle feel a little less overwhelming and a lot more doable.
Cheers to healthy living!
