You know organic is better for you than regular produce and you’ve probably seen the list of the ”Dirty Dozen” in your produce aisle too. But did you know the size of your produce has something to do with how nutritious it is for you?

Taking several sips of water at a mealtime as compared to
drinking a couple of large glasses per meal seems to be a personal preference
unless there is a medical reason or a weight loss is desired. Several sources
say that at the present time there is no proof at all that water aids in the

If you’re eating more raw foods and making that important lifestyle
change, at some point you’ll need to consider investing in a juicer. A
blender is NOT the same thing. To get all the benefits of juicing
fruits and vegetables, you need to be able to process every part of the
food – seeds, stems, peels and pulp. That’s where all the vitamins are.
A blender just can’t do that effectively.  A juicer will extract all
the nutrients from fruit or vegetable that not even your stomach can
adequately do.

Most parents would worry that if they keep their children from eating
those fatty foods that they love, and only offer vegetables, that the
children will starve, or have nutritional deficiencies.  These parents
feel that the kids will just not eat the food.  If you think about it
this way, how much nutrients are they receiving from the fatty,
processed foods now?
