Style Magazine - Readers Choice Awards - Roseville Granite Bay Rocklin 2022

In this month’s issue, our biggest of the year, we’re celebrating the season—along with all our region’s small businesses (and business owners)—in a big way. If you’re like me and read magazines back to front, then start with “Last Look” on page 82 for an autumn-esque picture snapped locally and our favorite leaf-peeping locales, including East Sacramento—an urban forest that’s currently awash in a canopy of yellow, orange, and crimson-colored trees. Leaving the leaves behind, turn to page 68 for some easy, autumn-inspired recipes utilizing the cream of the harvest crop, including a butternut squash risotto you’ll be eager to reheat…and have on repeat. In honor of the most hallowed holiday—the one where consuming colossal amounts of candy and donning creepy costumes is A-OK—we asked area distilleries for their “boo”ziest, most spirited cocktails. Pick your poison (I think I’ll start with the Midori-spiked, freaky-looking “Frankenstein”) on page 72. We also share some fun, festive Halloween happenings in The 10 Spot (page 16) that are sure to (pumpkin) spice up the season. Around here, it wouldn’t be October without our annual “Best of” feature, where we announce the winners of this year’s Readers’ Choice Awards. It’s a personal favorite because I always discover new (literally) winning places around town to support—like Pasty Pies of the World and Exhilaration Station—and am reminded of all the talented, innovative entrepreneurs our region is teeming with. Find out if your favorite people and places made the list starting on page 51. There’s much more in store, too, including an inspiring, informative piece about local women beating breast cancer (page 20); a spotlight on some of the area’s best bands (page 26); and tips on making sure your WFH office is an authentic place of productivity, whether you prefer to work indoors or (like me!) out (page 54). I hope you’ll agree that these glossy print pages are as plentiful and uplifting as the autumn season itself. Enjoy! ——Megan megan@stylemg.com @meggoeggowaffle

Food<br />

Rules<br />

Nutrition Myths,<br />

Debunked<br />

by KOURTNEY JASON<br />

Having studied nutrition over the years, Heather<br />

Crivellone, a personal trainer and nutritionist at<br />

<strong>Roseville</strong> Health & Wellness Center (rosevillehwc.<br />

com), has had the opportunity to help hundreds<br />

of people lose weight and regain their<br />

confidence. “I have been asked numerous<br />

questions over the years regarding the latest<br />

diet ‘fads’ and how to keep off those pesky<br />

pounds,” she says. Here, Crivellone—along<br />

with four more experts—tackles some top<br />

nutrition myths with a dash of science<br />

and a pinch of common sense.<br />

MYTH #1 Skinny is healthy.<br />

“This is one of the biggest lies<br />

out there,” Crivellone says. “Just because someone is<br />

‘skinny,’ doesn’t mean they’re healthy. Someone can be in the ‘normal’ BMI range<br />

but not [physically or mentally] fit. Pant size doesn't matter, it’s what’s on the<br />

inside and whether you've been living a strong and healthy lifestyle. Instead of<br />

focusing on getting ‘skinny,’ we should all be focusing on getting fit and strong<br />

to live a long, healthy, and productive life.”<br />

MYTH #2 Fats make you fat.<br />

“Good sources of fat are very beneficial for you and keep<br />

you satiated for longer,” says Isidora Marín and Ryan Martinez, co-owners<br />

at Bikram Yoga Folsom (bikramyogafolsom.com). “Some good examples are<br />

avocados, olive oil, plain Greek yogurt, butter, and nuts.”<br />

MYTH #3 Drinking fruit juice is a good way to increase fruit<br />

in your diet.<br />

“Fruit juice is high in added sugars and an<br />

easy way to add more calories to your diet<br />

than necessary,” Crivellone says. “A cup<br />

of fruit juice can have as much as 40<br />

grams of sugar, which is equivalent<br />

to 10 teaspoons! Consuming too<br />
