You are not your own, for you were bought with
a price. So glorify God in your body. I
Corinthians 6:20
Eat the foods that God intended for food, in
their most natural state. (Rex Russell
MD, What the Bible Has to Say About Healthy Living)
Pace yourself!
Make small choices every day that will add up to healthier living. Buy one new vegetable (or other healthy item)
each time you shop. Taste a bite of
something everyday to acquire a taste for it.
Control toxic thoughts and emotions! Love this – combines Biblical wisdom and
science. Free e-book called Who Switched Off My Brain
Chicken Broth recipe (I only do the basic carrot, onion/onion skins and celery. I do my beef broth the same way except I use
red wine or red wine/balsamic vinegar and cook for 72 hours)

Best breakfast:
Sautéed veggies (in coconut oil or butter) with an egg! Or soup! :) Or sometimes I cook an egg in my soup, stirring
only the white, and leaving the yolk untouched.
Quick and easy sauerkraut and juice: Core an organic cabbage. Place in a blender and cover about 3/4 of the way with water. Add 1 T sea salt. Blend until cabbage is fine pulp. This may take pulsing and blending for a
couple minutes, depending on your blender strength. Pour mixture into mason jars with 2 part
metal lids. Seal tightly. Leave at room temperature
for 4 days. Then refrigerate for at
least several weeks (six weeks is ideal) to age – the flavor mellows and the final
product will taste much better. When
ready to use, strain sauerkraut pulp to use in soup (add a couple teaspoons to
each bowl of soup) and sauerkraut juice (take shots of this as a health tonic!
) In the meantime, buy some raw sauerkraut at a health food store and blend it up so you can hide it in soup!

Local Food Sources:
Trader Joes • Did I mention that I shop
here? :) If they do carry an item, I’ve
found they beat anyone’s prices.
New Seasons – take a tour or a nutrition class
to get discounts
Whole Foods - shop carefully both here and New Seasons - spendy! But if you can hit Whole Foods on a Monday pick up a Rotisserie Chicken for $6.99
