I know the power of veggies so I complied a three part list of my favorite tips, recipes, and products to get your veggies in especially if your sick of them or don't like them~<br />
<br />
<u><em>Tips:</em></u><br />
<br />
1. Sneak them in other foods. Below I have recipes for getting veggies in your oatmeal, pancakes, pasta, pizza and more! This is an easy you to eat them, you can't taste them and it adds volume.<br />
<br />
2. Have green smoothies, You can't taste it especially if you add frozen banana and/or protein powder. Also more than greens you can freeze zucchini (cut in up first) and add it to your smoothie and it makes it super creamy. Raw cocoa also totally cuts the flavor.<br />
<br />
3. Find a recipe or vegetable you like. Try the different recipes and variety of vegetables. For instance, mushrooms and broccoli taste TOTALLY different. So try a few and when you find a kind you like stick with it. Your body will begin to crave the nutrients in it and then slowly start branching out.<br />
<br />
4. Add fat. Fat actually helps you absorb the nutrients in your veggies too! Plus, it add lots of flavor. I always add fats to a big plate of veggies (well, usually not perfect;). Some good ones are avocado, coconut shreds, cashew based dressing, sunflower seeds, tahini, etc.<br />
<br />
5. Use a green powder. I have great one's below and more information below but thinks helps alkalize your body a lot! This really made a difference in my health.<br />
<br />
<em><u>Recipes:</u></em> <br />
<br />
1. <a href="http://nutritiouslynatasha.com/chlorella-overnight-zoats/">Zoats</a>... You can't even taste it.. Zuchinni in oatmeal:)- This recipe has more add-ins but you don't need it!:)<br />
<br />
2. <a href="http://www.pbfingers.com/2014/02/10/green-protein-pancakes/">Spinach in Pancakes</a>.. Again except for the color you can't taste it!<br />
<br />
3.<a href="http://www.youngandraw.com/raw-zucchini-noodle-pad-thai/"> Zuchini Noodles</a>.. Are so good you wouldn't even know!<br />
<br />
4. <a href="http://detoxinista.com/2014/02/vegan-cauliflower-pizza-crust/">Cauliflower Pizza Base (Vegan)....</a> SO GOOD!<br />
<br />
5. <a href="http://greenmonstermovement.com/?page_id=39">Green Smoothies:)!!!</a> ( This is my favorite way!)<br />
<br />
<br />
<em><u>Green Vegetable Powders:</u></em><br />
<em><u></u></em><br />
~I love these . It really helps alkalize your body, because you get the most high quality greens that you'd never it. Quality and Sourcing is super important so here's my favorite... If you want to use the coupon here's the code: RQANXY ($$ off and free shipping on all orders) if you can want to use it:)<br />
<br />
1. Vitamineral green. BEST product in the world. I talk about how it literally got me in to health and helped me reverse pretty serious conditions <a href="http://www.healthistoconfusing.blogspot.com/2014/09/favorite-superfoods-and-superherbs-im.html">in this post</a> so I won't repeat it and bore you...:) <br />

2. Chlorella.. Is AMAZING for detoxing heavy metals. It will definitely help with cleansing and alkalizing as well.<br />
Here's my favorite and cheapest: <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/search?Ntt=chlorella+now#sthash.malA1L80.dpbs">Link here.</a><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Last but not least... Chlorophyll... I find this is really great for people who don't eat that pure of a diet and/or need helping 'moving things along'. Or just to get some more chlorophyll in your diet.</div>
Favorite and best tasting: <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/chlorofresh-liquid-chlorophyll-natural-mint-flavor-16-oz-by-natures-way.html">Link here.</a> (*they have pills and tinctures to just put in search bar)<br />

*** With all green supplements START SUPER SMALL AND BUILD UP.. They can be very cleansing for some people and to much to soon can really not make you feel good!***<br />

I hope this helped, I tried to compile the best stuff I could. <strong><em><u>What do you do to get more veggies in?</u></em></strong>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08099284543370392123noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8906368315652421918.post-86585009771178394332014-10-28T15:09:00.000-07:002014-10-28T15:22:09.902-07:005 Things I'm LOVING lately:)<h4>

<br />
1. Ms. Dash. So I know this isn't "new" but I seriously had NO idea how good they are. Especially the regular and lemon lime flavor its really good on a salad with mustard (don't judge til you try;)!!!!<br />
<br />

2. Rebounding... I LOVE it. It really helps with digestion and it's also really fun way to do plyo and get some extra workouts in. Also it makes you feel like a kid again!<br />

No extremes just a natural way...<br />
<br />
6. Use the <a href="http://www.healthistoconfusing.blogspot.com/2014/10/healing-spices-foodiefriday.html">healing spices mentioned in this post</a> in your cooking and smoothies to fight inflammation and more.<br />
<br />
7. Tea ... There are so many great ones out there. I'll put a link to some good ones (I'll ones I've tried otherwise I wouldn't link it).. But they have tea for skin, stress, detox and more...<br />
A GREAT Tip...is if you hate the taste of tea(Like me:) Then open tea bags and put them in your green smoothie in the morning or if you don't do green smoothies put them in your protein shake!<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Yogi-Skin-DeTox-Bags-Pack/dp/B002LL7OXM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331771&sr=8-1&keywords=skin+tea">Here's a good skin tea.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Traditional-Medicinals-EveryDay-Detox-16-Count/dp/B0009F3PHQ/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331838&sr=8-14&keywords=detox+tea">A good detox tea.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Traditional-Medicinals-Peppermint-16-Count-Wrapped/dp/B0009F3PIA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331918&sr=8-2&keywords=digestive+tea">A good to for an upset stomach.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Stress-Balance-calming-basil-caffeine/dp/B00CI8AO44/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331869&sr=8-10&keywords=stress+tea">A good tea for stress.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Celestial-Seasonings-Cinnamon-Apple-20-Count/dp/B000E65OII/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331944&sr=8-9&keywords=celestial+tea">This one taste's amazing, but has no real benefits:)~:)</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Republic-Tea-VELVET-CHOCOLATE-unbleached/dp/B004MFNGEQ/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1414331993&sr=8-10&keywords=chocolate+tea">Here's one for chocolate lover's but again no benefits but chocolate!!!:)</a><br />
<br />
<br />
8. Fiber. You have to get enough fiber in your diet. High fiber and volume foods like fruit, veggies, coconut flour, and whole grains.. and eating enough of them help you reach your fiber goal. You'll so much better. Some people need even more than 25 grams. Also, make sure you get soluble and insoluble. <br />
<br />
9. Greens. If your body is an acidic state it will not detox. I've talked about it a lot on the blog. If you struggle with greens I'll do a post on how to get more greens tomorrow so stay toned.<br />
<br />
10. Be regular. I talked about it a lot on the other detox post and in the fiber tip, but I just wanted to repeat it I'll give tips for this on Tuesday. I know your just dying to read that;)..<br />

<em><u><strong>HAVE A GREAT DAY! I hope this helps!~</strong></u></em>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08099284543370392123noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8906368315652421918.post-85053091745997630002014-10-24T08:27:00.000-07:002014-10-24T08:30:04.391-07:00Healing Spices #foodiefridayHey you guys, I thought I'd continue with yesterdays theme~ Today I'll do a post on how to incorporate spices into your diet that fight inflammation and tons more. Some you may know but I think some will surprise you~:)<br />
<br />
1. This is one you may now but <em>turmeric/curcumin</em>. Turmeric has NUMEROUS studies showing it's healing benefits for cancer-, and reducing inflammation which is SO important.<br />
<u>Ways to use it:</u> Great on Avocado Toast, On fish, Stir Fries, Salads<br />
*You can also take it in pill from, if you suffering from any kind of inflammation related illness I definitely recommend it. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7LlMjDOaAZnyhrwr5m6zbTwdrGn77t8LNWNCSTraOAsldF2KgT4CrDjBT517E_zPtnU6SQOK3SlBq3_nHwqiGuOwtrTb2-eIEWSvuSQQNpDZifP_dSCPEhnmSLlSd7JU4YkqVAJwqPNL9/s1600/tumeric.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7LlMjDOaAZnyhrwr5m6zbTwdrGn77t8LNWNCSTraOAsldF2KgT4CrDjBT517E_zPtnU6SQOK3SlBq3_nHwqiGuOwtrTb2-eIEWSvuSQQNpDZifP_dSCPEhnmSLlSd7JU4YkqVAJwqPNL9/s1600/tumeric.jpg" /></a></div>
If your interested in purchasing turmeric here are two links:<br />
<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/turmeric-powder-7-oz-by-organic-traditions.html">Here is the powder form.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/turmeric-120-tablets-by-natures-way.html">Here is the pill form.</a><br />
(Cupon Code: <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/">Free Shipping on all orders+$5 off: RQANXY)</a> *** Applies to all the links below***<br />
(Also it's $5 off $25 I believe:)<br />
<br />
2. The second is SUPER popular, but <em>cinnamon.</em> Cinnamon not only tastes amazing but is great for balancing blood sugar. You don't need to have hypo/hyperglycemia to have blood sugar issues. A lot of cravings and mindless eating comes from low blood sugar. With stable blood sugar you will find you are much more mindful when you eat. It is also said to boost metabolism, but I have not found any valid science on that. You get a lot more benefits when you buy high quality cinnamon like the one below but definitely that's not the only one or anything!:)<br />
It is so much cheaper to buy it in bulk(cuz I Know a lot of ya'll use a lot of cinnamon:)<br />
<br />

3. The last one I will share for today is <em>ginger root</em>. Ginger is SO healing to the GI tract and helps reduce bloating. So if you are having issues when you eat then definitely try adding some high quality ginger root on your food.<br />
Link here. <br />
<u>Super good uses:</u> In baking, Salads, Stir Fries, Juices, Smoothies<br />

Hey you guys today I come at ya with a post about detox. Detox is such a buzz word these days with a new "clease" coming out every other day. I do not believe in cleanses or anything like that. A lot of the time they are short starvation diets. <br />
<em> What makes cleanses so good is not what you are eating, but what you are not eating. </em>In other words, you can get the probably get the same results as far as "detox" goes eating a whole food vegan diet with enough food and make is sustainable vs. going on and off a starvation diet leaving you with a bad mindset. Okay, rant over:) <br />
But you can work with your body to help it detox naturally. A lot of people don't even realize this, but it's your liver that helps you detox so your better off helping your body be more efficient and let it do what it's designed to do. The other thing is your not actually detoxing if nothing is coming out of you(I.e. going to the bathroom, sweating, etc.).<br />
<br />
<strong><u>5 way to detox naturally:</u></strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
1. <em>Eat a whole foods vegan diet </em>(or as close as possible to do with a healthy balanced mindset, see below). Kind of like I mentioned earlier, but you can't really detox if you keep putting "crap" in it. Chemicals, Toxins, Animal Products and Byproducts all aren't gonna help. If you can't keep a balanced mindset like I talk about below then eat fun foods in moderations, which I think is best. Balance, Just eat fun foods consciously and let them add to your life and your health.<br />
<br />
2. <em>Healthy Mindset</em>...OhmyGosh this is SO important, no one truly realizes how key the mind and body connection is. In fact, did you know a ton of digestive disorder such as IBS are caused by stress. I truly believe good health will be very hard without working on yourself... talking, mediating, therapy if needed, nature, etc.<br />
<br />
3. <em>Dry Brush</em>.. It's this tan brush( I will put the link below) you basically just brush your body with it before showers. Your skin is your largest organ so this is super beneficial. It helps remove crap from the skin, also great for cellulite (I will also link a very detailed post below for you).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/02/24/dry-skin-brushing.aspx">Information on dry brushing click here.</a><br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Yerba-Prima-Tampico-Skin-Brush/dp/B00016RIIA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1414072940&sr=8-1&keywords=yerba+prima+dry+brush">Buy a dry brush click here.</a><br />
<br />
4. <em>Inversions</em>. You hear about this a lot in yoga. You stand on your feet all day, switching the direction of the blood flow is very helpful.... Some ways to do it... Feet on the wall, shoulder stand, handstand, plow, headstand and if you really like it they have <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Body-Champ-IT8070-Inversion-Therapy/dp/B001IBIQ5Q/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1414073155&sr=8-2&keywords=inversion+tables">inversion tables</a> which are amazing, but expensive, very popular in the detox circles.<br />
<br />
5. Last but not least is <em>rebounding.</em> It looks a like a mini trampoline. It's SO good for the lymphatic system and getting everything moving. You can do it as a light workout or how I like to do it get up and jump 100x to get everything going. Here is where you can get it and more information (highly recommend!)<br />

For everyone who says they "can't" do Yoga:) #yogaeverydamnday Hey guys, So everyday I someone tells me "I could never do yoga I'm not ____ enough." (Just fill in the blank...LOL!) <br />
So I thought I'd give you some yoga tips and trips that help you get into cool postures.<br />
<br />
1. Down Dog.. Your down dog should be far out enough where you can transition into plank without moving your feet back. Otherwise transitions are going to always feel really akward to you... Here is a good video on what I mean.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
2. When doing poses where your flexibility is challenged. DON"T bounce. Go as far as you can hold for two long deep breaths, then inhale go a Tad further, TWO deep breaths, Repeat that one more time. Hold for a while. Yin Yoga is great for you and yes flexibility is super important. Here is a yin yoga routine(May seem hard and boring at first but you will grow to love it, promise!) and a stretch routine.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
3. Are inversions your goal. Practice holding headstand or handstand for 1 min. every day (It's just 1 minute:). As you get better start to go a little further from the wall. Also work on plow and shoulder stands to. You'd be surprised on how much this helps! Attached is a pic of shoulder stands if you wanted to practice that too. Inversions, by the way, are great for detox, stress and have been linked extensively with longevity.. Heard of an inversion table.. Here is a free one:)<br />

<br />
1.<strong> Pineapple</strong>... An amazing fruit... I LOVE pineapple. Did you know pineapple has an enzyme in it called bromelien that helps you digest protein. If you are on a high protein diet or just feel bloated try adding some pineapple in your day see if it helps.<br />
<em>Tip: </em>If it hurts your mouth try blending it!<br />
<strong>Ways to use it: </strong>In smoothies with greens, coconut, banana. In salads with some nuts and seeds. On its own. With a couple tablespoons of coconut oil or butter.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
2. <strong>Cilantro</strong>... Is great for detoxing heavy metals. Which is so cool you feel cleaner inside when you regularly add fresh herbs to your diet. Also, it helps your skin, bonus!<br />
<strong>Ways to use it: </strong>Guacamole!!!, Salad, Green Smoothies, Juices, Wraps<br />
<br />

<br />
3. <strong>Coconut.... </strong>Has something called MCT's which is Medium Chain Triglycerides which help metabolism. Coconut also is not digested like most fats, science is starting to show it digests more like a carb.<br />
<strong>Ways to use it: </strong>Coconut butter with fruit, Coconut oil can really go on Anything (I prefer butter or shreds for fiber and closer to whole food), Shreds as a cereal or on fruit or cereal, Coconut water after exercise...Great electrolytes.<br />
<br />

Great post workout. High protein: Feed muscles. Filling: So you don't binge cuz your starving after leg day. Love this so much.<br />
<br />
<strong><em><u>Cheesy Cinnamon Bean Dip:</u></em></strong><br />
-1c <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/search?Ntt=beans+eden#sthash.GWm9nNx2.dpbs">Beans.</a> (Fiber, Resistant Starch, Protein) <br />
-1/4-1/2c <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/search?Ntt=nutritional+yeasy">Nutritional Yeast</a> (B12, Protein)<br />
-<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/search?N=102223&Ntt=cinnamon">Cinnamon</a> (just a dash or it will be weird tasting) (Blood Sugar Balance)<br />
-<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/search?Ntt=sprouted+flax#sthash.OWZbtxc2.dpbs">Flax Seeds</a> (Digestion, Omega 3's) (If you are using this recipe after lifting just use a little flax cuz you don't want to much fat in your post workout meal so that can be changed:) ~Also I linked it to sprouted flax cuz that's easier to digest but you can use regular~<br />
-Opts: Stevia or Almond Milk.<br />
<br />
Mash all together. If you like it sweeter add the stevia and almond milk. If you want it cheesier add nutritional yeast.<br />
It's so good. I served mine with romaine hearts and rolled them up like tacos, but if you want something even more filling can serve with ezekial bread, pita, corn tortilla chips, etc. :)<br />
<br />
If you need the ingredients Pure Forumals has them... I just really like this site as you can see lol!:) So cheap! I linked it to the site you can use my cupon code if you want to! <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/">Code: RQANXY</a> ($5 off, free shipping on every order no matter price, samples)<br />

Have a great afternoon:)</strong>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08099284543370392123noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8906368315652421918.post-47001099986418810932014-09-21T12:29:00.001-07:002014-09-21T12:29:34.989-07:00Five Easy Things to Help your Health( that's not overwhelming!)<strong>In today's world health is so confusing (why I started my blog) I meet SO MANY people who just quit cuz it's like there's so much conflicting information...vegan vs. paleo, high fat low fat, high carb low carb, blah blah blah lol...</strong><br />
<br />
<em>Here are Five things you can do to help your health that are easy:):</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<br />
1. Forget the rules. Seriously you know what whole foods are. Eat them :) ENOUGH of them forget the dogma around things. Carbs aren't bad, fats aren't bad your body needs it all. Listen to YOUR body. <br />
<br />
2. Supplement with a Green Powder...So short science thing... Your body can be alkaline or acidic. Acidity is where disease lies(don't get to hung up tho). Greens are the most alkaline food and in today's society you just can't get enough. Honestly, your cravings and energy will be much benefited by them I'm not even kidding. <br />
Here are the top brands in my opinion in different price ranges but you do get what you pay for most of the time it's worth it.<br />
<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/vitamineral-green-300-grams-powder-by-healthforce-nutritionals.html" target="_blank">Healthforce</a>, <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/ormus-supergreens-raw-organic-natural-flavor-8-oz-2268-grams-by-sunwarrior.html" target="_blank">Ormus Greens</a>, <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/greensuperfood-raw-reserve-powder-85-oz-by-amazing-grass.html" target="_blank">Amazing Grass</a><br />
<br />
You can get free shipping and $5 off to(<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/">PureFormulas</a> LOVE them lol...So cheap!). Code: <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/" target="_blank">RQANXY</a><br />
<br />
3. Stretch.. Seriously. I know everyone hates it, but think about it if your range of motion is limited when your older and your joint health is already declining think about how little you'll be able to do if your already limited. You wanna kick butt as long as possible. It doesn't take long. Here's some good routines:: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tara+stiles+stretching">Here</a><br />
<br />
4.. Affirmations. Seriously, Honestly I wish this was number one. You can have energy perfect health, everything but if you don't like yourself and feel hopeless about your future your not gonna be happy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-wise-open-mind/201108/5-steps-make-affirmations-work-you">Here</a> is a guide on how to do them without feeling ridiculous but they will be awkward at first but keep going!<br />
<br />
5. Eat enough (good) food.. Honestly, if you are not eating all the nutrients you need your not gonna feel good. I don't care what your eating. Today looks are "everything" but to me having energy, freedom and life is everything.<br />
<br />
GREAT resource for metabolism information and nutrition <a href="http://www.thereallife-rd.com/p/restoring-slow-metabolism.html">here.</a><br />
<br />
Well there you go. Hope that helps!:)<br />

It made me think rest days are CRITICAL. Not only physicologically without rest your muscles never get a chance to grow it is in the science google it there's A MILLION studies on it , I've studied it a lot rest is hard for me too!<br />
<br />
<br />
.. Hard to trust your body to be okay. To not gain weight. To not loose fitness. Trust it is healthy. Trust your body and learn self love.<br />
<br />
<b><u>A rest day does not mean sitting here are some ideas!:</u></b><br />
<br />
-spend time with friends or family<br />
-soduku<br />
-read<br />
-light yoga<br />
-study an interesting topic<br />
-read blogs<br />
-stretch<br />
-watch your favorite TV show<br />
-bake<br />
-eat;)<br />
-then blog about it<br />
<br />
hahah jk but you get the point enjoy other parts of life.<br />
<br />

So I wanted to make a post on one of my favorite but things: juice. No not odwalla but fresh veggie juice yummers(if made right). But I also want to address something I’m seeing come up on the blogosphere. Juicing is not a cure all. Not to be made into a weight loss new diet fad. It’s about juicing for how much you love the taste and the way it makes you feel. Yes juice is extremely healthy one of the best things you can do but don’t juice because it’s the new “health” craze. Do it because you FEEL the healthy! So hold off before you juice fast Im beginning to feel like beloved juice is just another way to lose weight, fall into an eating disorder, or that horrible restrictive mindset. I'll do a post on why science shows you shouldn't do a cleanse like that (With the exception of medical purposes). Don’t restrict. Enjoy. Use juicing don’t let it dominate you. Juicing is so brilliant. Without further ado here are my favorite recipes by far:</span></h4>

So I hate to admit it but I do love Super foods and supplements not as a whole meal FYI guys but in addition to like bump it up. I work with supplements at whole foods and have been trained extensively with the companies not to mention I've been at Hippocrates Health Institute and Raw food Institute in Michigan so I don't say this with nothing haha:)! Here are the BEST one the market!<br />
<br />
Note: I do not get paid to endorse these products...<br />
<br />
1. By far, number one is <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/brand/healthforce-nutritionals.html#sthash.xGiKY7yV.dpbs" target="_blank">healthforce nutritionals.</a><br />
All of their products are by far the best. You literally feel healthier the minute you take them. The taste may take some getting used to and they are cleansing so start small, but Jameth Sheridan(owner) is amazing. So passionate, a genius anything they put out is top notch. These products literally changed my life I adore Healthforce for all they have done for me so I will talk about them a bunch!;)<br />
<br />

<br />
My favorites: The Maca (Hormonal Health and Energy), Vitamineral Earth (Hello curing digestion and Grounding), Their proteins are amazing(especially the elite green it is made with ALL GREENS:)!!) The #1 is their Vitamineral Green OMG! :) . They have greens built in along with enzymes and probiotics! My dream is to work with them one day their products literally save my life!<br />
<br />
2. Number two award goes to <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/brand/garden-of-life.html" target="_blank">Garden of life</a><br />
I love that it is rich in sprouts when I interned at Hippocrates Health Institute they totally explained the benefits of sprouts and again I love that It has the digestive enzymes for people like me with digestion issues!<br />

Superfoods!So as much as I love my superfood powders you cannot neglect the most important superfoods. REAL FOODS! Here are my tops:<br />
<br />
1.Kefir..<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrBgmjDt9OW_4cVSbgIZC4wBdSl5tLYvp1ek5OkF0l7lnok7qUHSzIsmPzid0Q1O7AXWXAIHPwFMkU-HH1lFgbAFPpIP747WOlKpCiiUdbHUW8xxoXrJqvrzwaZRWIGwh2XRTi2zkrfBs/s1600/kefir.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrBgmjDt9OW_4cVSbgIZC4wBdSl5tLYvp1ek5OkF0l7lnok7qUHSzIsmPzid0Q1O7AXWXAIHPwFMkU-HH1lFgbAFPpIP747WOlKpCiiUdbHUW8xxoXrJqvrzwaZRWIGwh2XRTi2zkrfBs/s1600/kefir.png" /></a></div>
Kefir is AMAZING. You can enjoy it as lactose free to. Chris Kresser ( an amazing health blogger and practitioner) uses it to tell heal his clients. Each drink has over 10 billion probiotics. CRAZY!!!! Also if Casien makes you nervous, full fat (ps that's GOOD For you!) goat milk kefir has a2 casein which is totally healthy, no contribution to cancer or anything!<br />
<br />
Here are my favorites:<br />
<a href="http://greenvalleylactosefree.com/products/product.php?p=6" target="_blank">Green Valley Organics Plain Lacotse Free</a><br />
<a href="http://www.redwoodhill.com/goat-kefir/plain/" target="_blank">Redwood Hill Goat Milk Kefir</a><br />
<a href="http://www.lifeway.net/Products/OrganicKefir/WholeMilkKefir/OrganicWholeMilkPlain.aspx" target="_blank">Lifeway Whole Milk Kefir (This one has no additives like pectin which really upsets a sensitive gi)</a><br />
<br />
<br />
***Note: Can make vegan using coconut milk which is what I do****<br />
<br />
2. Raw Honey<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Yes, raw local honey is on the list twice. It is just so incredible. It saves you from allergies, with lemon it helps gi issues(Saved me), gives you energy is just overall an incredible product. Note::: Make sure its raw, unfiltered for the benefits. It should look like the picture not super runny:)</div>

I bet this is one you didn't expect on the list but I love bananas. Many people fear them but they are great. They are full of potassium which helps flush the sodium from your system. (Which many people have to much sodium-makes you bloated). Plus, in a world where veggies are where its at and many people have gi issues. Bananas are SO easy to digest causing no pain which is amazing for those of us with issues. If you cook it its delicious and even easier...<br />

Beans. + TipsHey ya'll so today my focus is on beans.<br />
<br />
Fruit eaters say no.Raw fooders say no. Paleo says no. But a lot of nutritarians and long term vegans so they are crucial here are my thoughts.:)<br />
<br />
Yes, Beans of phytates and sometimes can be hard on digestion due to the combination of protein and carbs in one food (yes, They have carbs :0 LOL). <br />
<br />
BUT.. Despite this I truly believe they are a GREAT food. There is no science baking the elimination of beans all science leads to it being a positive health benefits. I always go by science.<br />
<br />
<em>Here are the top reason people eliminate beans:</em><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyuN9P6nM4xxHh7h5-jguv-ExEzekyTIl-DBWKyLqcJ6nVjGzaXQ6Wh0ko5f4BfnyRJOeQV7UNVf4W1gsu8xHPmmI7416q9K-g0xswiEIY3Zw4btS2FdrD0S5ESXUcFUL-DKtkr0WHYzNx/s1600/images+(4).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyuN9P6nM4xxHh7h5-jguv-ExEzekyTIl-DBWKyLqcJ6nVjGzaXQ6Wh0ko5f4BfnyRJOeQV7UNVf4W1gsu8xHPmmI7416q9K-g0xswiEIY3Zw4btS2FdrD0S5ESXUcFUL-DKtkr0WHYzNx/s1600/images+(4).jpg" /></a><br />
1. Phytates: First, these are not as bad as they are made out to be. <br />
Here is my FAVORITE naturopath speaking on that:<br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pFjK5_ecqk">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pFjK5_ecqk</a><br />
<br />
<strong>Tips:</strong> for reducing them are one: Cook your beans in seaweed + you get the benefits of the iodine in seaweed. If this is to much time look into purchasing <a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/pinto-beans-15-oz-425-grams-by-eden-foods.html" target="_blank">this brand</a> (Eden Organics). Little more pricey, but you can use this code (<a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/" target="_blank">RQANXY</a> ) with free shipping plus your digestion and health will thank you.<br />
<br />
2. Carbs. Ugh, this just makes me plain sad. YOU NEED CARBS. Your body runs on them. Just cuz on animal protein is low carb doesn't make it better (I'm not bashing this here simply saying science backs plant protein) besides beans are high in resistant starch which isn't even absorbed in the gut and leads to better digestion.<br />
-Studies on resistant starch <a href="http://authoritynutrition.com/resistant-starch-101/" target="_blank">here</a>. <br />
-Naturopath on side effects of high protein and benefits of plant protein<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S08ISQ4dMg" target="_blank"> here</a>. ( Not to fear food to help you feel better if this triggers you simply do not watch. This to elevate you not make you feel worse:)<br />
<br />
3. Your a raw foodist or paleo. I'll keep this short there is no science baking the elimination of beans. IN FACT, they help reduce sugar or meat and keep a BALANCED diet. I've also found they help reduce cravings. Boom. <br />
Dr. Furhman on Beans <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSUfgej-CF0" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />
<br />
So there is all the science:)<br />
<br />
<br />
<em>Here are the health benefits:::</em><br />
Protein, Zinc, Resistant starch, soluble fiber, Heart health and more.<br />
<br />
<em>So how to incorporate them:</em> <br />
Here are my favorite recipes from around the web:::<br />

So many people suffer with eating disorders, bad body image, etc.....It SO sad and its my mission to help make a difference in that. Its so sad how many people hate themselves. Its also sad and frustrating the pressure put out there by society to be "strong", "skinny", "fit"...Etc. Just be you, be healthy, that's perfect and if you're not where you want to be realize your on a JOURNEY. Accept yourself now otherwise you never will be able to see it..<br />
<br />
<em> Here's my top ten tips plus some resources:::</em><br />
<u>Top Three Tips:</u><br />
<br />
1. Faith... The fact that God created you perfectly in his image remember this God DOES NOT make mistakes he made you and he loves you SO much. So much his son died for you so who cares what society thinks of your physical body when the creator of the universe thinks your perfect... Resources:<br />

<br />
2. Strength Training and Yoga.... Start focusing on what your body can do verses what you look like. When you start seeing how strong your body and what an Amazing machine it is you can start to love it more.<br />

<br />
3. Set a Goal... The power of goal setting is incredible and set a goal you want.. Ex. If your trying to recover but you don't want to recover don't make recovery a goal set a goal you want and make recovery the byproduct. <br />

Top 5 Supplements.....Hey, Welcome to my blog. The title is kind of funny but its true. Health HAS become way to confusing! <br />
<br />
A lot of people have told me I should start a blog. My goal has always been to get people to eat better and LOVE it, learn self love and all that good stuff, but in a way that's easy and not so confusing. I mean for real vegan or paleo, weights or cardio, high fat or low fat, raw or cooked blah blah blah...<br />
<br />
Lesson to me is always gonna be listen to your body!<br />
<br />
Without further ado... Here's my<u><strong> top 5</strong> supplements.</u><br />
I have a severe gi condition and have tried literally A TON of supps only to be disappointed. Here are the ones that rocked my world!<br />

5. Last but not least....<u><em><a href="http://www.pureformulas.com/concentrace-trace-minerals-drops-4-oz-by-trace-minerals-research.html#sthash.jnumGH2s.dpbs">Trace Minerals</a></em></u><br />
<br />
Even with the best diet A TON of people are difficent in minerals. Even with the best diet our food is lacking vitamins and minerals and sadly a lot of people are not eating enough either.... On the opposite end when your difficent in minerals it will lead to cravings. If your body is not getting what it needs it won't know its being overfed ( I'm not saying you won't be full just not satisfied:) It also helps balance pH levels in the body... When your body is acidic that's where disease is. That's the cliff notes verson:)<br />
