HEALTH JOURNEYS START HERE! The Confusion in Calorie Counting

HEALTH JOURNEYS START HERE
The Confusion in Calorie Counting


People who calorie count will traditionally miss out on the most terrific of superfoods that are going to actually satisfy your hunger faster and reduce the amount of food you WANT to eat to begin with!
(because they are high in calories due to having substance)
  It's a crazy circle of failure!  

Here's a tip:  Eat only all natural foods and watch your energy and health grow!  THEN... you will have the mental and physical endurance to take life by the horns.
1 cup of avocado might never be on the radar for a calorie counter because it has 234 calories in it. 
Here is what you are missing

Example:  AVOCADO
Calories: 234 WHAT!!!!!?
FAT: 21 grams of Smart Fats that prevent Heart Disease
DIETARY FIBER: 40% OF THE DAY'S DOSE
PROTEIN: 3 GRAMS
VITAMIN C: 24% OF THE DAY'S DOSE
VITAMIN B6: 20% OF THE DAY'S DOSE
MAGNESIUM: 10% OF THE DAY'S DOSE
POTASSIUM - IRON - FOLIC ACID

We eat them daily and no one on our team has weight issues.

Here is something else we do. EXERCISE SMART!

              Bob's Red Mill Natural Raw Wheat Germ 340 g                                       Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal, 16 Ounce

HEALTH JOURNEYS START HERE! Part 3: A Healthy Alternative!

Health Journeys Start Here
Part 3: A Healthy Alternative

Most people love pasta and pizza and bread!  It is tough to abandon these kind of carbohydrates.  We don't.  We use them in moderation as a treat and make simple changes when possible.  One change you can make in order to have PASTA EVERY DAY is to get vegetable based pastas that are rich in organic vegetable proteins!  They really do taste the same if you cook them correctly!

This pasta is 60%
chickpea.  People may
not like that it has brown
rice flour or tapioca starch
for their own reasons but
both are organic and both
are better than just eating
wheat flour for dinner.
To top it off, this product
has 176 grams of protein
in a 2lb box.  You do not
even need any meat with
this! 

(we got this at Costco)


Pair your health journey with fitness that requires no equipment and can be done anywhere!  Use Code: POWER to save 20% ($39.99)

HEALTH JOURNEYS START HERE: One More Simple Step

HEALTH JOURNEYS START HERE!
ONE MORE SIMPLE STEP


Eat More Alkaline Foods, Eat Less Acidic Foods

We nabbed this beautiful "beginner" chart off of Rawforbeauty.com.  We are not suggesting to completely overhaul and switch your entire regular everyday diet overnight.  Our goal for you would be to remove one thing on the right every month, and add one thing on the left.  After a year, you will be well on the way to fantastic-ness. 

QUICK TIPS #1: Did you know that things you consider acidic may not react with your body chemistry as an acid?  Lemons and Limes are Alkaline rich foods, despite being highly acidic.  Don't make assumptions

QUICK TIP #2:  The medical world knows, but does not advertise, that cancer struggles to survive in an alkaline rich, oxygenated environment.  If you eat the foods on the left way more than the foods on the right, you are being awesome and preventative!
