Coconut water supports the body!


Look at what coconut water can do for you! Honestly, I only use to drink this when I was hungover hehe.. But now I after reading this article, I know that I need to add this to my diet more often. And by drinking sweetened ones but the normal coconut water. Does anyone drink this regularly?? 


1. Improving Heart & Kidney Health- Reduces risk of hypertension and strokes. Caused by high blood pressure, and drinking lots of coconut water can lower your BP levels to a healthy value. Coconut water in your diet prevents and help treat kidney stones. 

2. Preventing Dehydration-The potassium content in the coconut also helps maintain water pressure in your cells, rehydrating those cells and keeping them healthy during intense physical activity.

3. Brain & Kidney Fuel- High electrolyte content in the coconut water can improve the function of your nervous system and nerve transmission. 

4. Aids in Digestion- The enzymes in the coconut water can actually boost your metabolism. 


5. Building a Strong Immune System- Helps the immune system fight against infections, while also taking care of any issues like worms or candida.

Gluten free dessert quesadilla

I have the biggest sweet tooth! I try to keep it gluten free but bring on the DARK chocolate ✔️✔️  2 corn tortillas  1 tablespoons dark chocolate chips  1/2 banana sliced  1 tsp of coconut sugar  1 tsp butter (spray butter)  Two pumps of spray butter on pan Place corn tortillas on pan and sprinkle half of the coconut sugar with sho plate chips on one side of tortilla  Place sliced bananas on top and add remaining ingredients and place other tortilla on top.  Take a spatula and press firmly on quesadilla, flip and repeat!  Slice and enjoy!  For those doing the 21 day fix:  1 yellow  1 purple  2 tablespoons  The sugar is technically a "cheat" but let's get real ;) 
My sister posted this article and I have had a TON of people ask me for a comparison in herbalife and Shakeology. This article is great and proves that PURE ingredients are not cheap. The most frequent question I get ask is "why is shakeology so expensive." When you break the cost down, Shakeology is about $4 a day.. Thats a coffee, snack and less than a meal. I personally would rather spend more money and NOT get fake sugars, chemicals and additives. If your current protein shake or meal replacement shake has any soy, its is the CHEAPEST! I encourage each of you to take a look into what you are feeding your body, it may be the most "cost effective" but your body does not get any benefit to it!! faq-shakeology-vs-herbalife

Coffee updates! FOOD CRAVINGS

Yesterday I posted about spicing up your coffee and I had a hit this morning by putting coconut oil in my coffee and with dairy free coconut creamer. It was seriously delightful! Not to mention its great for you, it has been said that if you consume coconut oil your metabolism increases throughout the day! Try it :) Let me know if you have done this before. Also, I found this interesting! I crave foods that I should not be eating ALL the time, this list totally makes so much sense. I will give it a try and let you know what I come up with. I crave sugar mostly so I really need to dial it in on what to put in my body when this happens. Normally, wine does the trick but does that count as fresh fruit ;)         Here is the article if any of you want to read more in-depthly!   http://www.herbs-info.com/blog/what-food-cravings-are-telling-you-about-your-nutrition/
