I created this site because I am very passionate about everyone knowing that whole food nutrition is it. Thank you for reading my blogs, I hope they inspire you to start a journey to eating as many good nutrients everyday.
I mentioned in one of my posts about eating comfort food during my broken ankle recovery. You know what happens when you eat comfort food? You start feeling bloated which in turn makes you feel bad, and there is definitely weight gain. That’s the way it worked out for me. Now I have 10 pounds to lose to be where I want to be. And let me tell you one thing – it is NOT easy!
This is why I am so thankful for the Shred10. This is a 10-day jumpstart into a four-month experience that will launch you into lifelong health. We begin the Shred10 every month, usually the first Monday unless it’s a holiday, and I find myself continuing for more than the 10 days because I feel so much better when I eat right. I certainly didn’t follow the plan from March until June that’s for sure! I’ve learned that food does things FOR you and medicine does things TO you. I’m not saying that all medicines are bad, I am thankful for some of them but why take meds if you don’t have to. I’d rather eat good food than pop pills! Wouldn’t you? It’s all about whole food nutrition.
Ok, back to the Shred 10, we have a Facebook group where you’ll find videos, cookbooks, grocery list to make sure you have all of the right food on hand. People post recipes, helpful hints, give inspiration and anything to help during the journey. And if you do want to lose weight, like me and my 10 pounds, I replace two meals with one of our Complete whole food shakes and I’m set to go. Of course, I take my “magic pills” with the nutrients of over 30 fruits, vegetables and berries – can’t forget those. And my plant-based Omegas. I remember when I was taking omegas way back and the fishy taste that I had to deal with. We have taken the fish totally out of the picture and went straight to the source – the algae. No more fishy taste – or burps! YUK!!!
Our next Shred10 begins on July 11th which gives me plenty of time to check my supply of Complete and place my order. It’s also a good time to stop at roadside produce stands and farmers markets for fresh veggies. I hope you’ll join me because it’s always more fun with a buddie!
Have a great Fourth of July!
We are crazy about fruits, vegetables and berries. Our goal is to give you the best that fresh, ripened fruits, vegetables and berries have to offer. This is how we do it!
Step 1: We love our farmers.
We partner with family farmers, who take pride in their seeds, fields and orchards, growing the amazing fruits, vegetables and berries that go into our capsules.
Step 2: Our farmers harvest at the peak of ripeness.
We wait until mother nature has done her job and allow the fruits and vegetables to ripen. By harvesting the fully ripened produce, we capture the maximum nutrition possible.
Step 3: The “quick freeze.”
If our farms aren’t close enough to where we make the capsules, we take that wonderfully ripened produce and give it the “quick freeze”, also known as IQF (individual quick freeze) by the product nerds. This ensures we don’t lose any valuable nutrients along the way as we prepare for the next step.
Step 4: Create fruit, vegetable and berry powders.
We selected 30 different fruits, vegetable and berries for our three blends. We juice the whole fruit, vegetable or berry, including peels, leaves and seeds whenever possible, to harvest the greatest amount of nutrients. We dry to remove water and create the colorful powders. (And from what I understand, we dry at very low temperatures to keep the live enzymes in tact.)
Step 5: Protect the plant-based goodness.
The powders are kept in a vegan capsule and preserved in special bottles that keep it protected from moisture and oxygen, ensuring that it stays fresh from our storage facility and all the way to your door.
Et Voilà! (And there you have it!)
Beautiful fruit, vegetable and berry capsules to help you build a solid nutritional foundation!
With gas prices increasing ⛽️ by the hour, 🕰 I am so very thankful to have the opportunity to work from home 🏡 Yes, even with a broken ankle, setting my own hours ⏰and making as much or as little as I want💰It’s all up to me. No quota, no ceiling on pay and total freedom!
Yes, I’m retired but who says I can’t have extra residual income 🤷♀️
I love educating families 👨👩👧👦 on the power of nutrition so they don’t have to continuously go to the doctor 👩⚕️🩺 for sick visits. 🤧🤒🤮. Families are so busy these days that our quick fix for a meal is the drive-thru. Nothing wrong with that, but what kind of nutritional value are we powering our children with? I am SO guilty 👋🏻.
How
When I found out about getting up to 30+ fruits, veggies and berries in capsules or chewables, kids from 4 through college can get it for FREE by the way, so why on earth would I overlook that? 🤔
Yes, nutrition is very important, however, what good is it to have your health if you don’t have people to share life with? That’s another Plus to my wonderful journey. The relationships that I have made over the past nine years are incredible and will last a lifetime.
I remember reading this several years ago….
“Imagine what would happen if you are sitting in a job interview and when the boss asks what you are seeking for compensation you say …
1. I would like 15% commission on everything I sell in addition to 10% sales profit on each sale. I also want a professional website for prospects and private office of my own where I can track everything about my work including all my customers, my earnings, and the progress of my team.
2. I need to set my own schedule and work only when it suits me and my family. If, for example, when I go on vacation for a month or two, I would still need to be paid.
3. I expect the Company to provide me with all the free training I need to become knowledgeable. I also will need a dedicated team of prestigious doctors and nurses available to me 24/7 to answer any questions I, my team, or my customers may have.
4. I expect the Company to manufacture the product; warehouse it; ship to my end users; and handle payment processing. I don’t want to purchase any inventory either, or deliver products or have to collect payments. I also want the company to pay me the full sales profit up front, before my customers have fully paid for their products.
5. When I bring in and train any new partners on my team, I want to be compensated a percentage of their sales and the sales of the people THEY bring in. 3-6% percent would be good.
6. I would like the opportunity to rapidly advance within the company and never be demoted. I’d also like a chance to earn a sizeable bonus for each promotion I earn.
7. When I do well, I expect LOTS of praise and recognition! I would also like to get a bonus when I help other people get promoted, too!
8. I would also like my family members and friends of my choosing to be able to work here.
9. If I do well and prove myself I will need an expense allowance of up to $3,000 every month to help build the business. I’d also like some tuition reimbursement for each one of my family members and a $1,000 Christmas bonus each year would be nice, too!
10. I’d also like a FULL BENEFITS PACKAGE for my whole family including life insurance; medical, disability; long term care; dental and vision.
And, to show you this is a two-way street I will give you $52 per year.
So… when can I start?
After the boss recovers from shock and stops laughing he will probably say “You can’t be serious, you must be dreaming”. 😂
I was a little skeptical at first, who wouldn’t be? My own Franchise for only $52 a year! I’ve always been told that if it’s to good to be true it probably isn’t… or something like that. Well, I discovered that this WAS TRUE and continues to be. I have been enjoying the journey as well as the personal growth. I have been blessed to go on two mission trips to Albania where lives were transformed spiritually, and seeing the lives that have been changed by educating families about the power of nutrition has made me a better person all the way around. It’s not a job, it’s my heart ♥️.

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!!!!
I want to ask you a question. With everything going on in this world, the negativity, the pointing fingers, the blaming, the rage, the hatred, sickness, disease and deaths, why on earth would anyone not want to be surrounded with people who are positive, supporting, helpful, happy and healthy. I just don’t get it!!! Another question, if you were to find out that you had chronic disease, would you not do whatever you could if there were any possible chance that it could help you? Not only what the doctors say, but anything that was backed by research!
One thing that I have learned during the past nine years is that no one will take care of your health better than you. You have got to take control of your destiny. It’s up to you. Not me, YOU! I can help by making suggestions, but the final decision is on you. This is why it just breaks my heart to see so many talk about their health issues, their doctors’ visits, hospital stays, chemo, radiation, you name it, there are all sorts of treatments out there, and no one is listening to the prevention side of it, the power of nutrition and how it truly does affect the body. Yes, the body that God created! He not only created man and woman, but He also gave them a garden, full of fruits and vegetables, yes whole food, to keep them healthy. This my friends is called PREVENTION. I don’t get it! Hmmmmm, processed food versus whole food, let’s see… I just don’t get it!!! I’m not 100% myself but I sure do my best to live it out.
No, it’s not miracle fruits and veggies. It won’t keep you from ever getting sick but it may just help you have a better, longer life with a little kick in your step. People have been asking me if what they’re seeing on TV about fruits and vegetables are what I’m talking about. NO IT IS NOT! The whole food capsules that I’m talking about have been around for 28 years and backed by research. I’m not talking about borrowed research, like these copycat companies, I’m talking about clinical research that’s been done and continues to be done by well-known institutions such as the University of Texas/MD Anderson, Yale University, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and many others. These are done on humans, they find the patients, draw the blood, follow them, do the study then present their work through the scientific process to a review board. It’s totally independent. Not to mention that it’s NSF certified. What does that mean you ask? Well NSF requires audits of all manufacturing sites, as well as sample of the products that determines that what’s on the label is actually what is in the product. They make sure of the safety of the product which makes it the perfect product for athletes.
So, why take a chance on these copycat companies when you can have the original, the real thing with the whole food nutritional capsules that I have been taking for the past nine years? I have the assurance of a 28 year track record that I am getting the best. Oh, did I mention that these wonderful capsules of whole food nutrition are bioavailable? Not like a vitamin which just ends up in the toilet. This actually is absorbed in your body to help it heal.
This is a quote from Johns Hopkins Medicine “I don’t recommend other supplements,” Appel says. “If you follow a healthy diet, you can get all of the vitamins and minerals you need from food.”
And guess what? My whole food capsules are exactly that – real food, dried at very low temperatures to keep the live enzymes’, then encapsulated in vegan capsules. Can’t go wrong with that.
The power of whole food nutrition never ceases to amaze me. This country is so unhealthy and needs more fruits, vegetables and berries in capsules or chewables as part of their daily intake. Did you know that you need at least 7 to 13 servings a day! This also means a variety. Eating green beans three times a day does not count as three servings. It has to be a variety, preferably raw and needs to be vine-ripened. Can you eat this every day? Do you know anyone who actually does? By the way, have you noticed that when you purchase produce, that most of the time it is not ripened? That’s because it was harvested before it’s time which means that it has already lost over 75% of it’s nutritional value by the time you eat it.
If you would like to know more about flooding your body with the nutrients from 30+ vine-ripened fruits, vegetables and berries encapsulated in whole food capsules or chewables, send me a message and I’ll be happy to talk with you. It is the most thoroughly researched nutritional product on the market. Ask Siri, she’ll tell you. By the way, kids from 4 years of age through college eat FREE through the Healthy Starts for Families program.

I thought that I would share this article. Isn’t it amazing how much money could be saved if we only ate more fruits and vegetables. Look at this study from Tufts University. You can read the information here.
Over the past few days, I have been reflecting on all that I learned during our conference, and where I would be without someone sharing the power of whole food nutrition with me almost nine years ago. At the time, I didn’t realize that I was joining a community of people who not only helped me see how important real food is for my health, but educated me on how easily I could help my body heal by consuming an abundance of raw vine ripened fruits and veggies easily every single day. I am a testimony on the heart clinical study that was done on humans not labs. Their mission to inspire healthy living around the world made sense to me and I wanted to share it with everyone. As I think back and look at the pictures from this past weekend, I am so thankful that I said YES to lock arms with so many caring, passionate and loving people who share the same vision and are there to support each other. Lots of laughter and some tears were shed as I saw close friends celebrate some well deserved promotions. Getting promoted and pay raises for helping people feel good from the inside out and vice versa! The testimonies of families losing everything then reaching financial freedom! It doesn’t get any better than this. I am so proud to be a partner with this company. When Jay Martin, President and Founder, said that he wanted to build a stable and lasting company to help as many people as possible realize their dreams – he wasn’t kidding and it’s happening. I look forward to the next nine years plus+!
