Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

Eating lots of veggies is one of my secrets for stopping junk food cravings dead in their tracks. Once you start to pumping your diet up with veggies at every meal, you’ll start craving them instead of junk foods and desserts. It may sound crazy, but it really works! When your body gets then nutrition it needs, your body becomes satisfied! I eat “cruciferous” veggies like broccoli, cabbage, and kale often because they are superstars in the vegetable family. They’ve been shown to help remove toxins from the body by boosting the liver’s own detoxifying enzymes. There is ample research out there that shows cruciferous veggies help to stave off cancer and heart disease too. So, if you’re not already… it’s time to add broccoli (and other cruciferous veggies) to your diet STAT. If you’re not a fan of broccoli, this flavorful Asian Broccoli Salad just might change your mind! It makes an incredibly healthy lunch that’s easy to make ahead and pack for work. It also is amazing for dinner ...

For today’s edition of Dear Mark , I’m answering four questions. First, is sugar-free gum okay to chew without worrying about insulin spikes? Next, is acacia fiber a good choice for a keto person trying to get more fiber and reduce constipation? Third, what can a person who has tried seemingly everything do for nighttime muscle cramps? And finally, why might a person’s body odor get worse on keto? Let’s go: Hi I hope this is not a dumb question but Will chewing sugar free gum cause an insulin spike? I’m currently going keto (loving the new book by the way!!) I work in close contact with the public and am always aware of breath freshness so I chew a lot of gum and just worried that it may be defeating my good intentions You should be fine depending on the type of sweetener. Most sugar-free gums use xylitol and/or erythritol, neither of which have any significant effect on insulin release . There’s certainly no spike. Sometimes you’ll find other, artificial sweeteners on the labe...

Hi, guys! A very happy Monday to you! How was your weekend? Ours was low-key and included minimal plans, which, honestly, was the best type of weekend. The fall has been crazzzzy for our family – and with me off to Israel later this week, a quiet weekend was exactly what we needed. Here’s a recap! Friday I finally enjoyed my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season. I actually shared my order on Instagram Stories and received a TON of questions about it, so I wanted to share it here, too. PSLs can be serious sugar- and calorie-bombs, so here’s how I ordered mine: Tall with almond milk, 1.5 pumps of syrup (a regular tall has 4), and no whipped cream. Easy as that – and it was still  very delicious! We stayed in Friday night – ate dinner and went to bed early. Saturday Quinn was awake super early on Saturday morning, so after some snuggle time, I started to chores around the house (laundry, dishes, etc.) while he played. Once Mal was awake, we got ourselves ready and headed ...

Helllooooo everyone!! Did you enjoy wedding week?! It seemed like you did! We came home from our honeymoon over the weekend. I missed you all. I missed Mazen!! And really just missed normal life. (And oatmeal and kale – for real.) The first night of our honeymoon We had a fabulous time on our cruise to Mexico, and I can’t wait to share all the pics! The posts – three of ’em – will be coming up as soon as I can get them written. I was able to write a bit about our first leg of the honeymoon on the plane. We had a one-night stay in Los Angeles before our ship sailed in the morning! I had asked my cousin Anna for a recommendation for a “fabulous oceanfront hotel.” Her recommendation was  Terranea. Terranea was stunning and lived up to our expectations and its reputation! It was likely the nicest hotel I’ve ever spent the night in. We arrived after dark and after a long day of travel, but the views from our room the next morning were spectacular! We were greeted with champagne...
