Welcome to Whole9

Founded in 2009 by Dallas and Melissa Hartwig, Whole9 is a community focused on health, fitness, balance and sanity, all built on a foundation of real food and healthy nutritional habits.

We talk a lot about nutrition on our site and in our workshops, but that’s just one aspect of our program. The ‘9’ in Whole9 comes from these 9 factors, which we believe are all important for optimal health.  Our 9 Blog (below) features all of our articles, addressing various aspects of each of these factors (and then some).

In addition, we are the home of the original Whole30 program, which has been quietly changing the lives of tens of thousands of people for the last two and a half years.

We invite you to learn more about Whole9 and our Whole30 program. Start here.

No, not economic recovery—though that would be lovely—but physiological recovery from the stressors placed upon us by our modern physical world. Rest [...]
