About Tracey Black
I’m Tracey Black, founder and CEO of Don’t Mess with Mama®. I have a background in health care, publishing, research, nutrition and wellness. I took my experience in health and nutrition to find answers to help my family who had experienced a number of health issues. I found that a gluten-free diet along with a natural lifestyle were key to my family’s health. DontMesswithMama.com was created to help others take their health into their own hands and take a step toward a more natural lifestyle with gluten-free recipes, natural remedies, DIY tutorials, and tips for a more natural lifestyle.
Read more about why my family became gluten free and some of the health struggles we’ve been through. A gluten-free diet with a focus on real, wholesome ingredients (no processed foods) has been key for our recovery.
Essential oils have been a crucial part of our journey too. Learn more about them here. You can also check out my free webinars and local classes (if you’re in the San Diego and Orange County areas).
