Why so fruity all of a sudden???
I am on a nutrition rampage and going more granola by the second...
But seriously--I am seeing own well-being and energy increase, sleeping like the dead at night, and not struggling with anxiety constantly. All this from eating great food, and discovering a great new way to live life less stressfully. I have called a bunch of my friends who have expressed interest in what I am up to, so rather than continuing to send mass emails...just come here and this is where all the info starts...
I want to create a place for everyone to be able to share their own health ideas, tips, and wellness information. I am focusing on all things green and healthy. From food to skin care, from the environment to make-up. All ideas welcome! I am going to start with compiling a nice little link list.
My way certainly isn't the only way, so send me what has worked for you so we can share the info here. If you have ideas then please send me your favorite recipes, websites, etc and I will create an entry on my blog for you!

"Eat this--not that"
I find that just by subbing these ingredients, I can make a much more health conscious meal, tips I gleaned from the "Body Ecology Diet" book.
Starting with your basic shopping list:
Instead of:
Vegetable Oil
Peanut Oil
Canola Oil
Butter
Use:
Ghee
Unrefined Coconut Oil (looks hard but softens when cooked)
Unrefined Olive Oil
Grapeseed Oil
Flaxseed Oil (only in Salad dressings and smoothies)
Instead of:
Sugar
Brown Sugar
Honey
Nutrasweet
Splenda
Use:
Stevia (powder and drops)
Xylitol
Lakanto
Agave Nectar
Instead of:
Wheat Flour
White Flour
"Whole Grain" Flour
Rice
Wheat Pasta
Oats
Breakfast cereals
Use:
Buckwheat
Quinoa
Quinoa Flakes
Millet
Amaranth
Buckwheat pasta
Puffed Millet
Quinoa Flour
Millet Flour
(all these have no gluten and metabolize much better)
Instead of:
Soy Sauce
Use:
Nama Shoyu Unpasturized soy sauce
Instead of:
White Vinegar
Balsamic Vinegar
Red Wine Vinegar
Use:
Raw Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar

Love Casa de Fruta!! We used to go there all the time when we lived in Hollister. There used to be a restaurant there called The Sugar Plum Farm and they made these amazing apricot freezes...YUM. Good memories!
