I’m adding a little over 40 g for breakfast using Strawberry ProFlex Pro and the Collagen Boost. I’m aiming for 140 g of protein, a day! I know this is a great way to start my day while giving me a great start on my daily Protein consumption.
I buy the two products at the Wellness Store—yep, my Online Shopping Club, the same store where I buy my cleaning, laundry, skin care, hair care makeup, toothpaste and more. They manufacture all of our daily household essentials! No harmful chemicals! I love that this company doesn’t have a big storage warehouse or things are sitting on shelves for months and years. It’s fresh and shipped to my door straight from them within three days of placing my order!
Both are important! But getting too much of one can be harmful to your health.
Omega-6 fatty acids are essential for human health and have many benefits, including:
Here’s the problem:
Omega 6’s can promote inflammation and the typical American diet contains 14 to 25 times more omega-6s than omega-3s, which reduce inflammation. So that’s why the balance of these two superstars is very important!
We should strive for a 1:3 ratio of Omega 6 vs Omega 3, meaning we should have 3 grams of Omega 3 for every gram of Omega 6.
You cannot have too much Omega 3’s!
There is a direct relationship between coffee and our gut microbiome. Research shows that coffee may signficiantly increase the level of a particular good type of bacteria (or flora) called Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus. In fact, in 2021, researchers found that out of more than 150 foods studied, coffee showed the strongest link to gut microbiome composition. So this is a good thing.
But how much should you drink?
In the studies I read, “moderate” consumption is the ideal. Guess how much that is: Four – Five cups/day!
So depending on your sensitivity to caffeine… drink up! Actually, coffee has been linked to “lower risk of all cause mortality.” That does not make it a “super food”, but it does make for a strong argument!
While modern farming has made it possible to enjoy your favorite fruits and vegetables nearly any time you want them, there are some drawbacks. At the end of its journey to your table your produce can still have pesticide residue, dirt, and other contaminants that can increase the risk of foodborne illnesses.
Luckily, there’s new EcoSense®Harvest Pure Fruit and Vegetable Wash!
A powerful combination of food-safe ingredients, Harvest Pure Fruit and Vegetable Wash washes away pesticide residues, dirt, grime, and more from fresh fruits and vegetables, so all you’re left with is their delicious flavor. In fact, when used as directed, Harvest Pure Fruit and Vegetable Wash removes more than twice as much pesticide residue as rinsing with water alone! This formula is not only effective at cleaning but also gentle and rinses off easily—leaving the nutrient-dense peels of produce intact with no unpleasant aftertaste.
I LOVE this product!
Magnesium deficiency is a risk factor for multiple cancers. This essential mineral helps maintain proper immune function and regulates inflammation, both of which are important factors in cancer prevention.
Good sources of magnesium include:
But still….. it’s hard to get the necessary requirements so supplementing is important. I prefer a powder magnesium that i can easily add to my water, lemonade, protein shakes, etc. It’s one less pill to swallow, but i can also increase dosage if I prefer. Also, I recommend looking for a magnesium supplement that also has Vitamin B6. It works beautifully with this mineral for quicker absorption.
If you are looking to lose some weight or balance your blood sugars, turn to fiber to help you reach that goal.
Here are a few easy steps:
If you don’t know what your fiber goals should be, think 28+ grams/day for women and 34+ grams/day for men.
Stains don’t stand a chance with this winning combination.
My two-and-one-half year-old granddaughter decided to paint more than the paper in front of her today.
I am so glad I have these products on hand!
Part of the EcoSense line, these two are furniture savers when those little artists are around! I don’t think I could be without these two products when the little ones are around!
I started cleaning with Pre-Spot and followed up with Sol-U-Mel. You’d never believe it had been painted red!
Here are the facts:
Christopher Schneble, MD, Yale Medicine sports medicine physician and assistant professor of orthopaedics and rehabilitation at Yale School of Medicine (who was not involved in the study) says……
“Engaging in physical activity can result in improved preservation of bone density, improved strength, reduced body fat, and better cardiovascular health. It can also lead to improvements in both mood and cognitive function. Improving things like heart rate, blood pressure, or the amount of excess body fat can all help decrease how hard the heart must work to pump blood throughout the body, which in return is protective.”
So schedule in some time to walk and set a goal to walk every day! Your body will thank you for it!
In an era where conscious consumerism is on the rise, many of us strive to make informed choices about the products we bring into our homes. Yet, there’s a stealthy ingredient hiding in a multitude of everyday items, from our favorite snacks to our bathroom essentials, that often goes unnoticed—palm oil.
While palm oil itself isn’t inherently malevolent, its clandestine presence in countless products has raised concerns about its impact on the environment, wildlife, and indigenous communities..
What’s the problem with palm oil?
Palm oil is a controversial and widely debated commodity due to its environmental and social impact. Here are some of the main concerns associated with palm oil production:
It’s important to note that the palm oil industry has made efforts to address some of these issues through initiatives like the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), which promotes the use of sustainable practices in palm oil production. However, criticism has arisen regarding the effectiveness and enforcement of such initiatives.
Why is palm oil used?
Palm oil is used in a wide range of products and industries for several reasons:
It’s important to note that while palm oil offers many functional benefits, its production is associated with environmental and social concerns, as discussed in a previous response. As a result, there has been growing awareness and efforts to promote the responsible and sustainable production of palm oil to mitigate its negative impacts. Consumers and companies are increasingly seeking alternatives and supporting sustainable sourcing practices to address these concerns.
Did you know destructive palm oil sneaks into your food using these 25 ingredient names.
Avoid them at all costs!
Palm oil often gets packaged under a multitude of different names, which can make it challenging for consumers to identify its presence in products. This practice is employed by manufacturers to obscure the use of palm oil and may involve a variety of alternative names, such as “vegetable oil,” “vegetable fat,” “palmate,” “sodium lauryl sulfate,” or even specific chemical compounds like “palmitate” and “stearate.”
This is a full list of 25 alternative names for palm oil:
Here is a list of products that often contain palm oil:
Food Products:
Non-Food Products:
It’s important to note that palm oil can be listed under various names and aliases on product labels, making it challenging for consumers to identify its presence. To make informed choices and support sustainable practices, consumers often need to look for specific certifications like the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) or choose products explicitly labeled as “palm oil-free.”
