Our Tower Garden has been such a great source of our plant based diet. We’re not perfect by any means, but it’s nice to know that we have whole food right there at our finger tips. Lots of times, we just eat off the Tower and don’t bother with meat. Since I’ve been on this “Health” journey, it seems like I am eating less meat than ever before. (I do love that good roast beef sandwich once in a blue moon though!)
One of the many questions that comes up is where do we get our protein if we skip putting that piece of meat on our plates. A friend of mine recently posted some great facts and I wanted to bless you with these.
? Fact: All living things contain protein. Plants are just the leanest and cleanest sources.
? Fact: Protein deficiency in America is basically unheard of. A study done on people following plant based diets showed that on average, they get 70% more protein than what they actually need every day.
? Fact: When you buy plant protein, you get a "Buy one, get these free" special with antioxidants, fiber, vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals ☺️
? Fact: When you buy animal protein, it comes with not so fancy "gifts with purchase" like saturated fat, cholesterol, added hormones, antibiotics, parasites and carcinogens which all feed disease ??
? Fact: We need to eat foods that supply us with the 9 essential amino acids that our bodies can’t make on their own. Some plant based foods have all of them (quinoa, buckwheat, soy, chia and hempseed) while others have a mix of some and not others. As long as foods like legumes, nuts, seeds, gluten free whole grains, fruits and vegetables are consumed daily, you’re getting everything you need and more.
The health benefits are so much better with whole food, plant based nutrition. With all being said, our Tower Garden has been a life saver. If it’s storming and need greens, we don’t have to get in the car and drive, and there are no worries about going out and harvesting like you would in a regular garden because we have an indoor garden as well as an outdoor. I love that the outdoor garden is right outside my back door. No walking in the mud, dealing with weeds and the normal issues of having a dirt garden.

I just had to post this sweet video. My husband is such a trooper. I guess I’ll have to video myself eventually but I love seeing him have fun as he continues on his health journey.
Ya’ll have a fantastic weekend, here’s to your health!
Seems like there are one hundred and one things to do on Saturdays. The one thing that I really looked forward to did get done – Putting our Tower Garden together. Now, just to set the record straight, I am not a gardener. I did grow potatoes once or at least they were sprouting, but our neighbor at the time plowed them up. Then one year, I had a small garden but it was so dry and with the water shortage – kind of like the drought in California – I couldn’t water it and everything just dried up. So after spending so much money on seeds, time, etc., I figured it was just as easy to buy from the Farmer’s Market. That’s what I’ve done for several years. Sometimes the veggies looked great, other times, not so great. Seems like water was always an issue…not enough rain, to dry, lost crop because of no rain. Then when I started selling Juice Plus, I was introduced to the Tower Garden. So, I had to give it a try, especially with our hot summers, and more water shortages, why not? That was one of the best moves for helping feed my family and save money at the same time.
With the Tower Garden, you don’t need any gardening experience. Its compact, state-of the art vertical aeroponic system fits easily on patios, rooftops, terraces, and—most of all—into a healthy diet. And, because of its unique technology and design, it uses less than 10% of the water and land required by traditional, soil-based agriculture. There was a study which was done recently by the University of Mississippi which found that it also generates 30% more produce than soil-based growing methods! And one of the best things that I love about it is that it’s on my back porch! Just outside my kitchen!
Now, why wouldn’t I want to grow my own veggies! I purchased my Tower Garden two years ago and for the past two summers, I have not had to purchase lettuce, kale, chard, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, and the list goes on! And now, we have grow lights! So I can grow all year round in the basement or garage.
I read an article not long ago about the drought in California and around the world. It stated that cities currently need well-irrigated farmland to produce food. If climate change becomes serious, can mankind feed itself from city-grown crops? That’s scary.
I’ve been on a journey to grow my own food…our own nutrition. That’s what it’s all about. The food we eat helps heal our bodies. Less processed food and more nutritional food. What do doctors say when diagnosed with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart problems, cancer, etc… “CHANGE YOUR DIET!” Why treat the disease instead of PREVENTING the disease.
