Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

The basic ketogenic diet garners about 65-75% energy needs from fat sources. While a good Primal diet offers much in the way of healthy, varied fats, with keto it’s helpful to have extra strategies for incorporating additional good fats. That’s where the keto fat bomb comes in. But that doesn’t mean shoring yourself up for anything tasteless or unappealing. Many fat bomb recipes—like this one—aren’t even savory. In fact, with just enough sweetness, the prevailing taste of this keto fat bomb is rich, cocoa goodness—deepened by an earthy nuance of chaga mushroom mix. And here’s what makes these particular fat bombs so special. Not only do you gain all the major benefits of collagen  and a healthy dose of nutrient-dense fat from coconut oil and almond butter, you’ll also get the nutritional magic of adaptogenic chaga. One of the true superfoods, chaga is a fungus long used in traditional medicine that is rich in both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory phenols. It has the highest OR...

Healthy Eats was excited when we scored an invite to shop the farmers market alongside chef Tom Colicchio. After all, the influential chef and restauranteur’s name is synonymous with gorgeous produce picked at the height of its season. (Decades before “farm-to-table” was an official movement, he scouted the Union Square Farmers Market for just-picked garden gems to cook at Gramercy Tavern and Craft.)   And there’s no better place than the farmers market for Chef Colicchio to help promote Naked Juice’s new line of delicious cold-pressed juices made with botanicals like lemongrass and lavender. As we peruse the stalls, Colicchio points out some of his late-spring favorites, including asparagus, pea shoots, morel mushrooms, ramps and bright yellow broccoli rabe flowers, which he uses to add hits of color and spice to salads and vegetable or grain dishes.   When I tell chef Colicchio it doesn’t feel like spring until I make bucatini with pancetta and ramps, I score a pro ti...

A big thank you to Muuna for partnering with me again on this blog post! I love developing new easy recipes, and I hope you guys love these two as much as I do for on-the-go snacking! Even though I have a lot on my plate nowadays, I still try to make my workouts a priority, which means I’m often on-the-go when it comes to sticking to my usual routine. Most mornings, I leave the house with a bag packed full of healthy meals and snacks for the day. I want to keep my energy up and ward off hunger throughout the day, so I make sure that my food choices are both nutritious and satisfying, especially when it comes to fueling for and refueling from my workouts. Before my workouts, I typically eat a snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy, like the Cocoa Almond Protein Bars below. These bars are also filled with protein goodness, to give me a little energy boost while keeping my hunger at bay. Post-workout, I want to   replenish nutrients and repa...

It’s Friday, everyone! And that means another Primal Blueprint Real Life Story from a Mark’s Daily Apple reader. If you have your own success story and would like to share it with me and the Mark’s Daily Apple community please contact me here . I’ll continue to publish these each Friday as long as they keep coming in. Thank you for reading! If you’re reading this story in the hope of seeing drastic before and after photos, I’m afraid you’re going to be disappointed (unless of course I could wear my body inside-out, in which case the transformation would be pretty damn impressive!), but rather my story is about completely changing my life in every single aspect to become the healthiest and happiest version of myself. Here we go… I better start by introducing myself. My name is Drew Harrisburg, and I’m 28 years young. I’m from the beautiful Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. Ever since I was a young kid I’ve been intrigued with the human body, as well as had a keen interest in sci...

We consumers may find ourselves all shook up when it comes to salt — unsure about how to absorb the latest research, which can seem to conflict. One minute we are warned to be super-careful about our salt intake or hazard increasing our risk of a host of health woes, including high blood pressure — and are further cautioned that high sodium consumption could be raising our children’s risk of heart attack and stroke . The next minute we’re told our efforts to cut down on salt intake by easing up on our salt shakers is not going to help much — and that, in fact, consuming less sodium might not do much to lower blood pressure after all.   A recent New York Times headline seemed to sum up the current don’t-know-what-to-thinkness of it all: “ Why Everything We Know About Salt May Be Wrong .” Oof. The Times article beneath the headlined filled us in on two new studies of Russian cosmonauts that found that salt may not make us more thirsty, as is widely believed, but actually less ...

^^HAHAHA. I am so ready to put my resting beach face back on! We swapped out the rugs in the office so we could use one of Thomas’ family rugs from his old house. I love the look (and the light!). Also, we finally hung our height ruler. Newsflash: Mazen is taller! You know what’s missing from our house? The two living room armchairs. They are getting reupholstered in some Sunbrella fabric (did I write about this already?) that will hopefully repel everything that touches it and will last for 100 years, so we currently have limited seating upstairs. But you know what? I secretly LOVE the openness! Makes me want to rearrange the living room when the chairs return, but I’m not really sure what other arrangements would work. Perhaps chairs and couch facing each other coming out from the fireplace? But then it would be hard to watch the TV without a turned neck, so I don’t think Thomas would vote for that ; ) Remember when I wrote about that new app called Best Fiends ? We are totall...

Hey, hey! Happy June 9th , friends! Today is our sweet boy’s 3rd birthday – and we are, of course, going to celebrate appropriately! I kept Qman home from preschool today, so we’re planning to go out for breakfast this morning and then Grandma, Aunt Steph, Cousin Matthew, and Karli are coming over to play. There are a few other fun surprises planned throughout the day with a big ol’ party on Sunday. I seriously can’t wait and hope he has the best time ever! I really love celebrating (other people’s) birthdays! So, the other morning, I woke up and laid in bed for quite awhile. Usually, I’m up and at ’em and thinking about my workout for the day. My go-to strategy is putting on my gear as soon as I wake up, so I make sure that I get my sweat on. This morning, though, I just wasn’t feeling it. I didn’t have the motivation to move my body… at all really. I did five intense workouts the week before, which is WAY more activity than I’m used to. I just felt like I n...
