Never Settle.

⁣We’ve had it right for thousands of years....but, suddenly, it seems as if so many people have lost track of this simple concept. ⠀
⠀
We are what we eat just like we become what we THINK.⠀
⠀
What you think you create. ⠀
What you feel you attract.⠀
What you imagine, you become.⠀
⠀
A healthy body must start with a healthy mind 🎯⠀

⁣What do you do when you feel “something coming on,” especially during cold and flu season?⠀
⠀
Here is my recommended “Under the Weather” Protocol:⠀
⠀
😴SLEEP: Resting is the best thing you can do!⠀
⠀
🍵SIP: Hydration is key. Always have clean, filtered water available and drink as much as you can. Avoid plastic bottled water and use a glass container.⠀
⠀
🥣SOUP: Eat simply-chicken and vegetable broth-based soups are perfect. Protein and vegetables only, nutrient-dense and simple to digest. Cooked rather than raw– sauteed veggies rather than a salad.⠀
⠀
🥜SKIP all gluten, dairy, sugar and processed foods. The goal is reducing inflammation and allowing as much energy as possible to go toward healing.⠀
⠀
🧘🏼SUPPORT: Yourself with meditation and visualizations, and be mindful to allow only positive things into your awareness. Avoid electronics, listen to your favorite music, read books, etc.⠀
⠀
💦SOAK: Take a relaxing bath. ⠀
⠀
✔SUPPLEMENT: With my “B Immune” Wellness Support Formula. My formulation is great for prevention during this time of year or when you’re traveling, and if I start feeling something might be coming on, I actually double up on the dosage (link is in my bio to learn more!)⠀

⁣One of the most important things you can teach your children is to educate them on WHY it’s important to eat healthy.⠀
⠀
To have a strong and healthy immune system⠀
To be able to fight off pathogens and infections⠀
And to live a long, happy, fulfilled life⠀
⠀
We all know it’s impossible to completely eliminate sugary snacks and juices, but here are some suggestions I have to help:⠀
⠀
✔Replace juice with water - or add a splash of natural lemonade to water.⠀
✔Add favorite fruits to water like cut up strawberries or blueberries.⠀
✔Introduce your kids to fun, exotic fruits like star fruit and kiwi.⠀
✔Be creative with fruits - make fruit skewers or parfaits with coconut yogurt.⠀
✔Bake apples and cinnamon.⠀
✔Make treats with organic pumpkin.⠀
✔Try different nut butters with all natural fruit spreads.⠀
⠀
⠀
Other tips include:⠀
👉Making sure they get enough sleep (8-9 hours is optimal)⠀
👉Get enough sunlight and Vitamin D⠀
👉Take supplements like Elderberry, Zinc, Vitamin A & C⠀
👉Incorporate immune boosting foods like garlic and onions ⠀
👉Get moving instead of staying glued to electronics and the TV.⠀
👉Minimize sugar intake.⠀
⠀
I know it’s not always the easiest to get your kids to eat healthy.... which is exactly why I created my Immune Bundle to help ( link in bio ) ⠀

⁣It still blows my mind when I see hospitals serving sick patients processed pudding, macaroni and cheese, pasta …. and ice pops?!⠀
⠀
How in the world can someone heal properly when they’re given only processed foods and sugar?⠀
⠀
This is essentially doing nothing but working AGAINST your body’s ability to heal and recover.⠀
⠀
Our bodies are incredible self-healing machines if we give them the environment to do so. ⠀
⠀
We need to do better. ⠀
⠀
It first starts with education and the understanding that food is medicine. ⠀

⁣The perfect recipe for a hot and tropical summer day 🎯⠀
⠀
Mahi Mahi has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and is firm in texture like swordfish. What makes it so great is that it is packed with protein, amino acids and enzymes. In fact, each six ounce filet of Mahi Mahi provides over 30 grams of lean protein and contains vitamins B-3, B-5, B-6 and B-12, Omega-3, iron, selenium, potassium, phosphorous and niacin. This dish is also paleo friendly, low in fat, and is wonderfully satisfying.⠀
⠀
In addition, we added fresh organic leeks, tomatoes and garlic for a delicious flavor that the Mahi Mahi soaks up beautifully.⠀
⠀
Enjoy on a bed of fresh organic spinach, if desired.⠀
⠀

⁣We all know protein is essential but so many patients don’t realize just HOW essential it is. Some of the benefits include:⠀
⠀
🎯Reduced appetite and hunger cravings⠀
🎯Increased muscle mass and strength⠀
🎯Boosts metabolism ⠀
🎯Increases fat burning⠀
🎯Helps maintain weight loss⠀
🎯Healthy bones⠀
⠀
And so much more. But many people struggle to get enough protein daily. So, today I wanted to share a few quick and easy protein options to ensure you’re getting enough and hitting your macros 👇⠀
⠀
Personally, my Perfect Paleo Protein shakes are key to helping me optimize my protein intake. With 17 grams of protein, no artificial ingredients or inflammatory foods, and knowing that it is COMPLETELY Paleo helps me satisfy my taste buds, and build muscle.⠀
⠀
And the best part is…..this protein powder contains critical nutrients found in beef, including a significant amount of collagen-specific amino acids, along with various minerals and vitamins such as the fat-soluble vitamins A and D, as well as natural forms of the B vitamins.⠀
