Food has that kind of POWER!

There is food that will build and nurture your body and then there is food that will tear you down, ruin your heart, give you diabetes and age you rapidly.

That’s the truth whether we want to hear it or not. Food has that kind of POWER!

You may never have the kind of money that Oprah does to be able to buy the services of a personal chef or personal trainer for that matter. You may never be able to afford the latest in plastic surgery and designer skincare.

What you CAN afford however, is to feed yourself and your family as healthfully as possible. It just takes a desire and a “want to” attitude!

Without taking out a second mortgage, here are 7 things we can do NOW to achieve better health tomorrow:

1. First Thirst. Water is cheap, readily available and will boost your health, your absorption of nutrients and give you great skin!
2. Big on Breakfast. Eating breakfast gets your metabolism started, your appetite handled and consequently, helps you to stabilize, maybe even lose weights!
3. Eat in Season. Fresh fruits and veggies can be expensive, but if you buy in season, you’re going to get superior quality and less cash outlay!
4. Watch the Iceberg. There are FAR better lettuces out ther.  Iceberg is nearly a nutritional void.  Let the color GREEN be your guide; the greener the better!
5. Brown Outs. Skip the white rice, white flour and white sugar and go for the whole-wheat flour, brown rice and evaporated cane juice instead.  All of which should be used sparingly!
6. Go Fish. Eat wild fish instead of farm-raised fish to enjoy the benefits of omega 3 fatty acids not found in farm-raised.
7. Better Butter. Use half olive oil and butter whipped together, or better yet use coconut oil to replace both!

Start thinking, I mean really thinking about what you want to accomplish on your next trip to the grocery store. Is it to give your body the nutrients it truly needs to thrive or is it to merely fill that void between your breastbone and hipbones?

It’s your choice!

Super Green Smoothies Vs. Urilife The Feast

As people are becoming more and more in tune with what is going on with the food industry, they like myself, are ditching the Red bull and other sugar-filled energy drinks and picking up some real nutrition found in live whole foods.

With more and more research going on, we are finding out how powerful these super foods truly are. Raw foods are crucial to good health. People who were once sick are becoming healthy, people are looking younger, diseases are being cured….and all of this is being done naturally by giving our bodies The Feast God intended us to have.

So what is with this Juicing?

Well, according to the healing diet, it is generally recommended we should be eating roughly 1 pound of raw fruits and veggies per 50 pounds of body weight every day. Juicing is certainly an excellent way to make sure you receive the large quantities of the raw foods you need to survive, and may not otherwise be able to get.

Because many of us have relatively compromised intestines as a result of poor food choices over the many years, our bodies no longer have the ability to absorb all of the nutrients from the fruits and vegetables. Juicing tends to facilitate this absorption.

Cons of Juicing…although there aren’t many, juicing can be expensive, timely, messy not to mention green juicing can taste like crap too.

How to avoid these juicing woes…

I am not into supplementing my diet, but if you are like me and live a busy lifestyle between being a full-time mother of 2, attending my daughters school functions and sporting events, being a wife and tending to my husbands needs, keeping up with a house, leading a team of individuals in business and running a successful business myself, you don’t have time to fiddle with the blender and go to the store for produce every day.

The answer is Urilife’s The Feast.

The Feast is a Power Packed, Nutrient Dense, Live Whole Food Based, Great Tasting Powder Juice Drink Mix that gives me the REAL NUTRITION I’ve been seeking! The Feast and the Feast Super Charged are the only products on the market that provide a synergistically complete, nutritionally balanced combination of natures MOST beneficial live whole foods.

What Happens to Your Body Within an Hour of Drinking a Coke?

Need a dose of energy? I stumbled upon this article about drinking coke. I have never been big on soda and after reading this I am grateful.

Drinking soda is bad for your health in so many ways; science can’t even state all the consequences. Here’s what happens in your body when you assault it with a Coke:

Within the first 10 minutes, 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. This is 100% of your recommended daily intake, and the only reason you don’t vomit as a result of the overwhelming sweetness is because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor.

Within 20 minutes, your blood sugar spikes, and your liver responds to the resulting insulin burst by turning massive amounts of sugar into fat.

Within 40 minutes, caffeine absorption is complete; your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, and your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream.

Around 45 minutes, your body increases dopamine production, which stimulates the pleasure centers of your brain – a physically identical response to that of heroin, by the way.

After 60 minutes, you’ll start to have a sugar crash.

Has This Happened to You?

“People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within”~Elizabeth Kubler Ross

Have you ever thought you knew someone so well until all of a sudden when under pressure they CRACK revealing their not-so-pretty colors? After working at Craig Hospital for several years, I found myself witnessing this particular setting day in and day out.

It separated the strong from the weak, the experienced from the newbie. More over, it separated the nursing staff who were there caring for their patients because they had compassion to do so. Like owning a Urilife home based business, nursing is one specialty that must be led with heart and not greed.

We are all human, we will all crack at times. But those whom possess this light from within will shine in any given situation.

Radiated Lettuce, Coming to a Town Near You!

It is official, the FDA approved radiation on lettuce, spinach and other greens hoping to ward off the all too familiar salmonella and e-coli scares. The radiated produce is said to hit grocery stores as of yesterday.

Once again, the FDA refuses to allow labeling on this radiated produce. I mean come on it’s in our best interest not to know why we are suddenly giving birth to incredible hulks!

I have to agree with Gerry from http://diseaseproof.com, if it’s not natural I’m leery. Which is why I encourage you to grow your own vegetable garden. If we were meant to live this life of high tech genetically modified food, why are we suffering from more disease now than ever before?

Radiation is not the answer and I am afraid that it will be the least of our worries to come.

Will you be eating radiated lettuce?

Hug Your Pet, Heal Your Bones

Did you know that cozying up with your dog or cat helps relieve mental distress and anxiety, plus puts you in a relaxed frame of mind for a more restful sleep?

No wonder animals play such a significant role in therapies around the world. And guess what? Studies suggest that the vibrations from a cat’s purr improve bone density and promote healing!

Don’t tell my daughter, she’ll actually have a sound argument for getting a cat now

A Bubble Bath…in the sink…at Burger King, What?

Since when is your birthday an excuse to bathe in a restaurant sink? I could think about 50 other ways to spend the day, but apparently this Burger King employee couldn’t. You can read more about the story here.

What do you guys think about the rest of the staff being fired too?

One more reason NOT to eat Fast Food!

Are You More Committed to Your Dreams or to Your Reality?

If there is one thing I’ve learned since starting my Urilife Home Based Business almost a year ago, it’s that you need to serve as a model of integrity by meaning what you say and saying what you mean.

If you want respect, you need to demonstrate to your team, family, friends and community that when you say you are going after your dreams, you mean it!

“Let go of the past and go for the future. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you imagined.” -Henry David Thoreau

The road to making your dreams come true starts with where you are now. Most people fail at making their dreams happen because they did not make an honest assessment of where they were and where they wanted to be. They allowed that inner voice to make them quit before they even got started.

Has this happened to you?

We all fall short at times, we are only human and aside from what some may think, not one of us is perfect! If you allow your self sabotaging ways to flood into your dreams soon that negative attitude, those beliefs and ultimately your fears will not only be your reality but it will also become your dream.

What is my dream, you ask?

I want to be the healthiest I have ever been. I want to share this passion with my family and friends and anyone else who will listen for that matter:~) I want to find the balance between raising my children and providing for them financially as well. I long to find a way to get out of debt and no longer allow our check book to dictate our fate for the month.

This is my dream and I am 100% committed to making it happen and guess what, it is happening! While it was difficult at first, my family and friends now see just how committed I am and they now support me in making this dream a reality!

Which are you more committed to, your dream or your reality?

If the answer is your dream, prove it. Demonstrate that you are serious about achieving your dream by taking action today!

See You at the Top!
