Nutrition Tip of the Day

Bring on the Berries! blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries are all great for you inside and out. Blackberries are loaded with anthocyanins, an antioxidant linked with improved brain function. Strawberries have about 3x as much vitamin C as the other berries and have the fewest calories, however, they are also most important to buy organic because of their absorbing capabilities.

Nutrition Tip of the Day

Hide your cravings- if you have a weakness for the stuff you know is bad for you, hide it somewhere you have to work extra hard to go get it. For example, in the back of a closet in your basement. Now that's a little extreme, but you get the picture. When it takes more energy than it's worth to get to it, you're less likely to give in and have it. Just don't forget all together that it's there otherwise you may have another problem your hand (read: pests/rodents/mold/children from next door etc.). Or remove the problem all together and give it away to someone you secretly want to get fat ;) kidding, kidding.

Nutrition Tip of the Day

Train your taste buds! Our taste buds are alterable meaning that when you make changes to your diet say by eliminating foods high in sodium/sugar/processed foods, our taste buds adapt and start to prefer healthier foods.
