Antioxidant Awesomesauce

Sometimes we get sick or broken.  Maybe cold or flu knocks on our door, ragweed allergy goes crazy, we get a cut or a broken bone.  During those times, we need to fix something.  There's nothing wrong with that, but we can't stop there in our thinking about good health.  We have to be proactive about building and supporting the body so it can do what it was created to do.  Without proper support, our body will degrade faster.  We'll have more aches, pains, allergies, depression, etc if we don't give our body what it needs.  Don't wait til you are sick to take care of yourself or you will never experience true health!




There are many wonderful things we can do for health and wellness support! A clean eating plan packed with vitamins, nutrients, and superfoods like garlic or broccoli is a great start! We all know how wonderful antioxidants are, so be sure to add plenty of those to your wellness regimen. Some essential oils such as clove are good options. :)

One yummy addition I've made to my own (low carb) eating, is Ningxia Red, Young Living's nutrient and oil-infused wolfberry drink. I loved it right away, but the longer I used it (2 oz daily), the more blessed I felt...more focused and energized than ever before.  I found it easier to remember why I walked into a room, lol.  My conversations were smoother and I got a lot more cleaning done around the house. 

Ningxia Red is a packed formula that revitalizes, energizes, and fortifies. Some have compared just one ounce of it to the nutrition in 34 large onions, 130 tomatoes, 10 lbs of spinach, or 55 lbs of almonds! Wow, what a powerhouse!  And it tastes GREAT.  You can drink it plain, make combos with your favorite YL essential oils, or use it in recipes such as the ones I've posted on this blog in the past.

In the morning, I love to pour some into my 2 oz shot class along with a drop of Young Living cinnamon and orange essential oils.  It's a great pic-me-up and supports my immune system! The packets are great for freezing into pops or sending in a lunch bag for hubby.
