Introducing Primal Kitchen® Pasta Sauces—and a Giveaway!

Good morning, everybody. A Weekly Link Love it coming right up, but first I’ve got something to share…. I’ve always been in support of the greatest health with the least amount of pain, suffering and sacrifice. Living well—and eating well—should be as simple as possible. That was the reason behind the first Primal Kitchen® products I created: I wanted to make good Primal eating easier for everyday people with busy lives. It’s the same mission that moves me today in developing healthy sauces, condiments, dressings, bars and more. And today I’m thrilled to share the latest additions I’ve made to the Primal Kitchen collection—the Pasta Sauces . And, of course, I’m celebrating the occasion with a giveaway…. Over the last couple years I’ve had a number of readers write in or comment on the boards that they wanted pasta sauces—a Primal version of the family-friendly staple. And, well, I listened.

Speaking of my little boy – we have a new sitter! I have waffled back and forth between hiring someone regularly, winging it, and trying to do it all. I decided that at least until Birch is down to one long afternoon nap I’m going to pay for a regular, consistent morning sitter. We’ve had her for a week and it’s been SO NICE. I’ve been l

Collagen Timing/Sauna? [@9:44] Jesse says: Hello you two. I’ve read or heard that when collagen is consumed prior to training the absorption rate is increased considerably. It was also stated that this timing also changes where/how the collagen is used; specifically it goes towards cartilage, tendons, ligaments as opposed to hair, skin, nails. If I’m not off base and you have heard of this phenomenon, then I am curious what happens when collagen is consumed before sauna? Since you’re body is being stressed in similar ways to exercise does the process work the same? Thank you both for taking the time to put out
