All about the "other" milk.

If you are still consuming pasteurized and homogenized milk products yet wanting to get better, give a clean, alternative milk a try.

All it takes is a cup of soaked nuts, 4 cups of water, 4 Medjol dates or splash of maple syrup and sea salt. Vitamix and a nut bag are necessary.

Some people cannot do almonds, give cashews or luxurious yet expensive macadamia nut a try. Be creative, make your own blend. Hemp seeds are loaded with protein and require no overnight soaking. Cashews need to be softened for 20-120 minutes. Use it in smoothies for a superb taste. Use it in smoothies for a superb taste.

When using cashews, try a heavier blend with less water for a creamy consistency. Can be used as a soup addition (add more sea salt and lemon, maybe some nutritional yeast flakes) or sweet fruit sauce with more dates, honey or stevia, if you haven't taken care of candida yet.

Enjoy life, don't feel deprived, be smart and live in healthy luxury so you can feel better. And the way you feel creates your reality. ..

PS. The milk will separate,  just stir or add some sunflower lecithin, if that bothers you. Fortify the milk with MCT oil from Bulletproof and Collagen hydrolysate from Great Lakes for great stamina, protein and amino acid brain and gut boost!

Super Kids - my new ebook

Did you know...

• 31.3% of children aged 10-17 are overweight or obese!
• One out of every 3 children born after year 2000 will develop diabetes!
• For the first time ever, parents are expected to live longer than their children!

Source: Diabetes.webmd.com , Childhealthdata.org

So how do you raise healthy kids? Is there a way?

Having kids ourselves and facing the same obstacles as you do, my dear friend and fellow coach, founder of Nutritious Mom and Nutritious Mom Healthy Bites,  Burcu (BB) Beba and I have gathered our best tips drawing from our own lives and rasing our own kids (5 total) and are now eager to share them with you.

The statistics are again alarming and we simply refuse to be part of them. While it is easy to do things right from the moment the child is born, it is so much harder to introduce the changes later on, when they are older and have formed their own habits and tastes often dictated by mineral deficiency, like zinc, which can make the food taste terrible and appalling, Candida overgrowth, which will create a desire for sweets, high sodium intake from processed foods leading to more sugar cravings and unstable moods due to mineral depeletion etc.

But that doesn't mean we should let our children be and allow them to make further poor choices.

We shouldn't!

With food sensitivities on the rise, mood disorders, depression, ADD and more, we should do what we can to educate both ourselves and our children, and husbands. Sadly, many times the husbands themselves are resistant to healthier options. We have seen it and experienced it way too often. But all we need to do is educate them too.

It is usually the woman that's in charge of the food served. We would like to urge you to take this responsibility seriously and are trusting that this book will give you all the understanding you need to implement the change.

Life without enzymes

Can you or can you not live without enzymes?

There is no life without enzymes!

Most enzymes are proteins responsible for thousands of bio-chemical reactions and functions in the body like:

• help repair your DNA
• help digest and metabolize the food (otherwise it will ferment and putrefy in the digestive tract causing disease and a breathing ground for bacteria and parasites)
• repair and prevent wrinkles
• help you loose weight
• rebuilt your blood
• decrease bloating, gas and constipation
• keep you younger and vibrant
• help slow down the aging process

You are born with a huge reserve of enzymes, but as you age, that reserve naturally diminishes.

How do you ensure proper enzyme intake?

Eat raw foods with your cooked foods. Enzymes are destroyed at 118 degrees Fahrenheit. Raw foods have plenty of enzymes and will help you digest your meals creating healthy intestinal environment.

If your digestion is compromised , take an enzyme supplement with your meals. The goal is to restore your digestive fire, so until you do, those supplements are necessary for healing and detoxification. Once you heal, you might take one with your major meal and slowly wean off.

Anyone with any autoimmune diseases, Leaky gut syndrome, food sensitivities or anyone consuming mostly cooked foods should be taking dietary enzyme supplements daily.

The supplements consist of various enzymes designed to break down large molecules into smaller ones, easily absorbed and utilized as fuel and energy by our body. You need a different enzyme to break down fats, proteins, fibers.

Are you Gluten Free?

All l know is this...

...we were never eating gluten the way we do.

Wheat was traditionally (meaning several centuries ago) harvested in the Fall for Winter consumption. It was not eaten during Spring nor Summer and it was never eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

It was never before sprayed with pesticides that ruin our intestines and traditionally it was soaked and sprouted.

Growing-up in Poland, the wheat or dark rye bread was a must for breakfast and supper, flour was used widely for majority of the dishes. Sprouted, or fermented bread (the darker, the better) was available in every store, especially peasant markets. People in the country side always made their own breads and circulated the starter culture among the households.

I know my grandparents ate like that too, with lots of meat and I mean lots of, a tradition interrupted the the World War II and socialism, which created a lack of everything, from meat to soap, to freedom. They all died young, in their fifties and sixties. That is young, way too young!

 

So far I have outlived my father by a year. He died at 46 from MS, an autoimmune condition linked to gluten sensitivity. 

Now what? - is the question I am often asked. I think it's time to revise the traditions, and like the beliefs that don't serve us, we need to toss some out and create new ones based on our bio-individuality.

I want to live, and live independently, healthy, able to move my joints, pain free. If that means I must adhere to a gluten free diet and strengthen my immunity, and therefore my digestive fire, than be it and that's what I have been doing for years now.

 

Trained by Dr. Tom O'Brian, I know going gluten free is one of the component necessary for regaining health, but without healing the gut and repairing the damage one might feel better on the outside, but have the fire going on inside.

My job is to help you put that fire down!

Gluten Free Candy list plus more on specialty tests

I am not a big fan of Halloween...

...and the more I know about damaging effect of sugar on human body, especially when suffering from autoimmunity, the less attractive the entire concept is.

Anytime you deal with leaky gut, which is part of autoimmunity, you deal with the world of parasites, bugs, yeast overgrowth, and every time you consume sugar, you feed the bacteria contributing to its overgrowth.

It might be easier for an adult to consciously refrain from sugar consumption (or so we think) but it definitely is much harder with children.

For those of you with children who have gluten issues, here is a list prepared by Celiac.com of what's safe and what's not.

When examining gluten, do take into consideration accompanying sensitivities, like dairy, soy, corn (watch out for the corn syrup), artificial colors and flavors. Know your sensitivities, get tested to know for sure. Check out the Pediatric Wellness profile offered through ALCAT right here.

If possible, leave a handful of sweets for the child to enjoy, bringing the rest to school as part of give away program.
