The gut is the center of everything and is very much connected to the brain and lungs. Superfoods like coconut oil and wheat grass are good for gut health and help aid in digestion. Before kicking off any new nutrition plan I suggest doing a detox. Specifically, an organic juice detox which has many benefits. Giving your digestive system and all your other organs a break is key. An organic juice cleanse allows these organs to fully flush out toxins and chemicals we absorb from food, our bad habits and the environment. Also, your small intestine is where the body absorbs nutrients. When the small intestine has been detoxified, it can more efficiently absorb the nutrients of the food you consume, making you feel energized rather than sluggish after eating.
Beets are known to improve athletic performance because they produce nitric oxide in the body which improves respiratory health and cardiovascular endurance. “The Energy One” is a popular and delicious fresh juice that we offer. For a post-workout, any of our protein smoothies are ideal. If you are watching your sugar intake, you can always substitute frozen bananas for frozen blueberries or strawberries. Our smoothies are dairy free, and only made with organic unsweetened almond milk, coconut water or fresh juice.
The truth is what we put into our bodies is a direct reflection of how we feel about ourselves. As we age, bad habits catch up with us and a poor diet will absolutely affect everything. There are so many ways to make veggies taste good without adding unhealthy fats, salt and sugar. Eliminate fast food or at the very least take baby steps to cut back. Make 2023 the year you invest in your health! You will see and feel the difference without affecting your budget!
