Food Resources

I try to link all my favorite products so you can buy them online.  When I can't find them online, I will do my best to tell you where you can buy them.  Full disclosure:  There are some things I earn a commission on simply so I could link them for you.  I ONLY put products here that I use and love.  I have never or will never sponsor paid promotions.  This blog is from my heart and I only made it to help others.

Dynamic Greens - I have tried MANY many vegetable powders and held my nose thru every one of them if I could even do that.  Then, I found Dynamic Greens.  Berry Flavor is my favorite, but they are all good.  The key is that they are sweetened with Stevia.  All natural ingredients, no sugar and a great source for vegetables every day.

Vanilla Perfect Protein is the only protein powder that I have found that tastes good and has ZERO sugar.  Again...it is sweetened with Stevia.  So, I can drink this confidently, get good protein and no sugar.  They make Chocolate too!

This Nutrition Guide is worn slick in our house. The first half is loaded with the answers and the reason behind the "live it"....eating only pure and non-processed foods.  It is a wealth of information.  The second half is loaded with recipes that we use and love.  It is our Go-To book for many basic recipes.  I have given this as a gift to so many people who love it as much.

We buy Coconut Oil in vats!  Before I ever learned that it was the best for my health, I heard to substitute coconut oil for oil when making brownies.  Holy Hannah!  Its delish!  Now, we use only Coconut Oil to cook with...when making scrambled eggs, popcorn, or any other time oil is called for.  The key is to make sure your coconut oil is COLD PRESSED.

Bragg's Liquid Aminos changed my life. The first time I started changing my eating, I felt like everything was so bland and tasteless.  Then, I met Bragg's and flavor returned.  This can be a substitute for soy sauce, added to meat patties.  My husband marinates chicken in it before he grills. SO good.  A great flavor to add to any recipe.

Take it from me.  Stevia is not Stevia is not Stevia.  My first crack at Stevia was a huge fail.  Then I heard someone say that there are different qualities of Stevia, so I tried again.  Better Stevia is the best Stevia I have found.  I prefer liquid to powder because I think the taste is smoother.  However, there are times when I have to use powder.  Be sure to look at the ingredients in Stevia.  It should just be Stevia!  Some, like Better Stevia, have alcohol.  There are some name brands out there that add sugar alcohols and "natural ingredients".... Always, ALWAYS get as few ingredients as possible and never trust "Natural Ingredients" or "Spices", as that typically means sugar is added.

Always Always take a probiotic.  Sick or not.  We all need them.
I love Garden of Life for Adults and for Children.
