Why Whole Food Nutrition
Sugar vs Whole Food Nutrition
I hear so much about how sugar is bad for our body. I can fall off the wagon though when it comes to some “sweets”. Laying here with a broken ankle has been quite a challenge. I’ve been blessed with friends bringing meals which my husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed. Sitting around trying to eat healthy was going great! That is until a friend brought over a small strawberry cake. I found myself enjoying it with a cup of decaf coffee- oh so good. But you know, that’s when my ankle started hurting more than it had been. Go figure! I wasn’t snacking on my fruits and veggies but on sugar. So there IS proof in the pudding! Whole food does heal the body.
I realize that we can’t control everything in our lives but we CAN control what we put in our body!
Just a little eye opener visual here, and then a helpful healthy alternative that can really be beneficial to your health!! 👏🏼
93 grams of sugar in a small shake- that is about 23 teaspoons of sugar in one drink! 😳🤔🤢
Try this healthier option and your hormones, blood sugar, adrenals, pancreas, liver – well, your entire body will thank you!!!!

Plant Based Omega Supplement
Did you know that the BEST source of OMEGAS come from PLANTS, NOT FISH!! Fish eat plants in the ocean and that is why they have omegas! Makes sense doesn’t it? And no more fishy taste! I am SO excited that our amazing company has been working on a 100% PLANT OMEGA CAPSULE. We’re talking Omega 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 encapsulated in a VEGETARIAN capsule made from tapioca.
State-of-the-art encapsulation process that avoids the need for higher temps that can negatively impact the nutrition inside. We all need to eat better, that's a known fact. And, we especially need much more nutrition from fruits and vegetables in our diets - including omega fatty acids. I know that I get my nutritional value from my Orchard, Garden and Vineyard blend capsules each day, that's what helps me fill in the gap between what I eat and what I should eat. What can I say, I'm human and I do like some foods that are not the best for me. And who can eat 7 to 13 raw fruits and vegetables every single day? Not me. With my capsules, I'm getting the antioxidants, phytonutrients and other micronutrients that are much needed. One more reason why I am so excited about the Omegas! Let me jut say that there is scientific evidence showing that a diet rich in omegas fatty acids supports a broad array of health benefits. These include heart, brain, joints, skins and eyes! Now who doesn't want to improve in any of these!
One thing is for sure, our company has done their homework on this and has chosen the highest quality ingredients such as oils from six different whole food sources: algae, pomegranate seeds, sea buckthorn berries, raspberry seeds, tomato seeds and safflower seeds! As they mentioned, they "cut out the middle fish" by taking the Omega 3s from the original source that the fish eat, not from the fish. Now, I am all for not having that fishy taste after I take omegas. YUK! 100% non-GMO, gluten free, no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives or added starches. Will be NSF and Kosher Certified!!!
We will learn more in April in Anaheim, but I am SO excited and wanted to go ahead and share this valuable information with you. More information to come SOON!
As always, if you have any questions or want more information on the wonderful Garden, Orchard and Vineyard capsules that I take each day, send me a note. Or if you want to know how children can get fruits and veggies for free, I can help you with that too. We have these in chewable form and they are so delicious. I actually eat them for my snack. And if you like that healthy, plant-based shake each day, we have the best product, or at least I think it's the best. Scott and I have one every morning and some days, that's what he wants for supper which is really great for me when I don't feel like cooking. Of course I have to watch how many times he wants to do that because two a day helps with weight loss and believe me, he does not need to shed any pounds!
Have a great week!
