  • Sweetener Buying Guide
    Sweetener Buying Guide The intent of this guide is purely informational. The summaries included represent the highlights of each sweetener and are not meant to be comprehensive. The traffic light system is not a dietary recommendation but a buying guideline. Sugar, in any form (even honey, maple syrup and dried fruit), can suppress the immune system and throw our bodies out of balance. It is important to consume sugar smartly. Start by choosing the best sweeteners for you. Then keep in mind that sugar is best reduced or avoided when your immune system is compromised e.g. - if you have candida overgrowth, are chronically stressed, fatigued or in pain, are diabetic or pre-diabetic, have digestive issues (IBS, Crohn’s etc.), etc... For more detailed information on how sweeteners can affect your body speak to one of our expert nutritionists on staff!

  • Blood Type O Is the Oldest and Most Basic Blood Type
    EAT RIGHT FOR (4) YOUR TYPE In his book, EAT RIGHT FOR (4) YOUR TYPE, Dr. Peter D’Adamo teaches the fundamental relationship between your blood type and the dietary and lifestyle choices that will help you live at your very best. When you use the individualized characteristics of your blood type as a guide post for eating and living, you will be healthier, you will naturally reach your ideal weight, and you will slow the process of aging. You can pinpoint the foods that make you sick, contribute to weight gain, and lead to chronic disease. Our ancestors had unique blueprints that complemented their environments. The genetic characteristics of our ancestors live in our blood today, and it is this lesson we bring with us into our current understanding of blood types. Your Blood Type Plan lets you zero in on the health and nutrition information that corresponds to your exact biological profile. With this new information, you can now make choices about your diet, exercise regimen, and general health that are based on the dynamic natural forces within your own body. If you follow your Blood Type Plan carefully, you can: Avoid many common viruses and infections. Lose weight, as your body rids itself of toxins and fats. Fight back against life-threatening diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and liver failure. Avoid many of the factors that cause rapid cell deterioration, thus slowing down the aging process. Today, it is well accepted that nutrition has a direct impact on the state of our health and general well-being.

  • Tietoa Täysruokosokerista
    TIETOA TÄYSRUOKOSOKERISTA • valmistetaan käsityönä sokeriruo’osta • runsaasti vitamiineja, kivennäisaineita, antioksidantteja ja aminohappoja • aromaattinen maku Historia Trooppisilla alueilla sokeriruokoa on pureskeltu raakana jo vuosisatojen ajan sen makeuden vuoksi. Kauppareittejä pitkin sokeri levisi mm. Kiinaan ja Lähi-Itään, mutta sokerin erottaminen ruo’osta kehittyi Intiassa. Sokerin saavuttua Eurooppaan se oli aluksi teen ja kahvin ohella kallis luksustuote. Imperialismin aikaan Hollanti valloitti trooppisten alueiden ruokosokeriviljelmiä ja maasta tuli Euroopan sokerikaupan keskus. Vuonna 1747 saksalainen kemisti Andreas Sigismund Marggraf onnistui uuttamaan valkoista sokeria sokerijuurikkaasta (Beta vulgaris) keittämällä, siivilöimällä ja haihduttamalla. Lopputulos oli sama kuin tuotettaessa valkoista sokeria sokeriruo’osta ja kemistitkään eivät kyenneet erottamaan ruokosokeria ja juurikassokeria toisistaan. Napoleonin estäessä sokerin tuonnin Hollantiin, alkoi valkoisen juurikassokerin laajamittainen tuotanto ja voittokulku. Nykypäivänä Euroopassa tuotetaan 16 miljoonaa tonnia valkoista juurikassokeria joka vuosi. Valkoinen sokeri Sokerijuurikkaasta voidaan tuottaa ainoastaan valkoista sokeria, mutta sokeriruo’osta on mahdollista valmistaa eri asteisia sokereita. Teollisessa sokerin valmistuksessa ruokomehun melassiosa erotetaan sokeriosasta koska ruokomehua melasseineen on hankala käsitellä teollisesti. Melassin mukana poistuu 4/5 kivennäis- sekä hivenaineista ja tuloksena on raakaruokosokeri. Valkoista sokeria valmistettaessa

  • Here Are Some Effective Tips to Becoming a Master of Healthy Eating
    BASIC MEAL PLANNING, HEALTHY COOK BOOK, MEAL PLANS _____________________________________________________________________________________ Here are some effective tips to becoming a master of healthy eating: 1. Know the 3 important blood sugar stabilization principles: • Eat a balanced meal every 3-4 hours • Maintain balanced nutrient ratios at every meal (protein, fat and carbs) • Consume the correct amount of calories at each meal (based on metabolic rate testing) o Each meal should be no less than 200 calories § Aim to eat 200-300 calories for females § Aim to eat 300-400 calories for males 2. Meal Balance is key • Do not eat whole grains as the carbohydrates for the last one or two meals. For example, after 4:30p.m., eat vegetables and/or fruit instead of bread, pasta, or rice • The last meal could be just a protein (i.e., cottage cheese or chicken breast) • Try not to eat carbs alone (i.e., apple with almond butter) • It is important to watch your serving size with most foods, especially fats, carbohydrates, and high calorie proteins. You can eat more than one serving of lean proteins such as chicken breasts and cottage cheese o You can eat as many vegetables as you would like, but at least 4-5 servings per day. o Eat 1-3 servings of fruit each day • Eat healthy foods….this is not a fad diet! • NO STARVING! Fire up that metabolism! 3. Believe in the Importance of QUALITY food • Less ingredients on the label means less processing and slower digesting (less sugar spikes) • Eat food in a state closest to its NATURAL state (less cooked and refined) • Go for higher FIBER foods (more fiber slows digestion and less sugar spikes) o Goal is around 45-50 grams a day o Take 15 grams in a supplement form twice a day with rest from foods • Less Sodium means higher quality o Sodium makes you retain water leading to bloating and weight gain o A bloated digestive system will not work properly leading to more weight gain o Limit to less than 2,000mg a day 4.
