What's in it for you?

 

Avocado - Oh my are avocados a superfood!  They have more potassium than bananas.  Avocados are extremely high in fat, but the majority of this fat is oleic acid. Oleic acid has been linked to reduced inflammation (really important!!) and is believed to be anti-cancer.  They are also high in fiber. Numerous studies have shown that eating avocado can improve heart disease risk factors like Total, LDL and HDL cholesterol, as well as blood triglycerides.

 

Hemp Hearts - Superfood #2, hemp seeds,

or hearts, are tiny little seeds that are

packed with nutrients.  They are incredibly

high in magnesium, which most people are

low in (and which helps reduce stress and

anxiety).  They are very high in protein, in

fact many vegan protein powder include

hemp protein and you can buy hemp

protein on its own.  They are high in B

vitamins, E, zinc and iron.  Lastly, they are

powerhouses of Omega 3 fatty acids that

work to support your brain, hormones

and heart.  A great addition to your diet!

These are the best.

 

Himalayan Pink Salt - White table salt is a processed food that has been striped of minerals.  Himalayan salt is salt in it's most natural state with all the 84 minerals in place.  I use this salt in everything from my food to my toothpaste. I even use it in the water I rinse my mouth with when I brush my teeth.  I use this kind.  Although I keep it in the pretty, expensive jar (in the picture) that I got at Whole Foods before I found this brand much cheaper.

 

Black Pepper - Aids in digestion by stimulating hydrochloric acid, is antioxidant and antibacterial and stimulates the breakdown of fat cells.
