5 years ago I learned there was a big difference from being FIT and being HEALTHY.

You see, I had it going on in the fitness department but on the inside I was a nutritional disaster.
•I took any product/vitamin based on hype or recommendations.
•I counted calories and macronutrients but paid no attention to the micronutrients, antioxidants, and phytonutrients my body needed.
•I started struggling at the age of 18 with Ulcerative Colitis; I was getting colonoscopies and was required to get blood work 1x a month.
•My sleep schedule was chaos, I was an emotional roller coaster, and I knew keeping this up for long would danger my life.

I happened to move next door to two people who started opening my eyes to some things… they started asking me about the research behind all of the things I was taking (there was none).
They helped me learn and understand how VITAL fruits and vegetables were in our diet- and the fact that we needed 9-13 RAW a day.

I was introduced to the capsules I always share about (30 fruits and veggies in a capsule) backed by 45 research studies- to bridge the gap from the fruits and vegetables we need everyday vs. what we actually get.

Using that at a catalyst; I also started viewing and consuming food differently, to FUEL me.

If it comes from the earth I eat it. If it doesn’t I try to reduce or eliminate eating it.

+now I am very ANTI supplements- (the capsules I take have a FOOD label- not a supplement label) and if I do take a supplement I will only allow NSF certified products that are backed by research into my body.

Our bodies are precious we only get one. What good is looking nice on the outside if the inside is fighting for it’s life. I made the switch and started caring about QUALITY of food, the INGREDIENTS.
In 4 years I haven’t had any Ulcerative Colitis(digestive issues), I sleep like a rock, but more importantly I know front the inside my body is THRIVING- I’m setting my future children up for optimal health, my husband and I are preventing future illnesses and diseases! Because you will eat food like it’s medicine- or you’ll have to eat medicine like it’s food ….
Again, your body is a temple- nourish it!
