Nutribullet Benefits

I have had my Nutribullet for several months now and surprisingly I am using it about 3-4 times out of the week.  Even more surprising is I feel better. There is something about drinking kale, pineapple, spurilina, strawberries is good for you and your body.  Before starting to drink my green drinks I had more aches and pains.  Each day that I am noticing that those tight areas, or inflammation seems to be leaving my body.  When you have pain you tend to notice it everyday.  As I am walking my Cocker Spaniel I am able to walk longer without pain.  The only thing I can attribute it to is the super drinks I have been making and drinking.

I have bought more produce like fruits and vegetables and now I notice I don't eat all the crap I was eating before like chips, cookies and drinking pops.  There is really something to putting green into you body.  I understand that our bodies have a desired PH level of 7-7.5.  I am not totally literate on the benefits of a ph of 7-7.5 but I do know I feel better.  And if you look at tropical islands they are all green.  I believe God intended for us to eat green to keep our bodies healthy.

And since I am going through chronic inflammation, along with being diagnosed with evidence of cancer I have to treat by body to every thing good God intended for it to have and that definitely includes plenty of vegetables.  I am realizing that if we provide the right nutrients for our bodies, they will heal itself.  But it is true junk in, junk out.  So I highly recommend if you want to improve your health buy yourself a Nutribullet.  It feels good to do the right thing for your body.

Viagra & Pomogranate

Pomegranate has been compared to Viagra.  Research was conducted at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh and involved 58 volunteers aged between 21 and 64 both male and female.  During the research blood was drawn daily to measure testosterone levels.  The experiment lasted two weeks.  The experiment consistented of drinking a daily glass of pomegranate juice for two weeks.  After the fourth night the men and women who drink a glass of pomegranate juice had an increased level of the sex hormone testosterone.

After the end of the two week experiment the testosterone levels in both sexes had significantly increased between 16 to 30 per cent.  In men higher levels of testosterone increased facial hair, deepened the voice and stimulate the sex drive.  For women it increased sexual urges.

Some other benefits of drinking pomegranate or eating pomegranate seeds daily is it lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, helps maintain blood sugars, reduce inflammation with it anthocyanins and can help ward off some cancers.

Pomegranates are a seasonal fruit, there should still be some in your grocery store until about the end of February.  Click on my 365fitnesstips Nutribullet Superfood Nutrition Extractor And Blender (Google Affiliate Ad)to learn how to de-seed a pomegranate.  Until next time.

Grinding Nuts with NutriBullet

This morning I decided to try my NutriBullet  to grind up my flaxseeds. Flaxseeds are a good source for Omega 3 essential fatty acids, which help to lower the bad cholesterol and raise the good cholesterol.  The one thing about flaxseeds are they are so tiny that if you try to eat them with your teeth they can easily fit into the cusp of your teeth and not allow you to get the nutrients out of the seed.  For this reason you want to grind them up.

So this morning I got a cup of seeds and used the milling blade provided by my NutriBullet.  I am amazed at how well the milling blade ground up my flaxseeds.  I then added two scoop of flaxseeds to my oatmeal.  

Just so you know flaxseeds have a mild nutty taste so they go good with just about anything you put them in especially breads, oatmeal, ice cream, chilli's just about anything.  

You can purchase flaxseeds for any health food stores and a lot of the big box stores like Meijer's, Kroger, and Walmart also carry flaxseeds. The brand of flaxseeds that I use is Bob's Red Mill.  There are many brands out there and the great thing about flaxseeds is it is 100% whole grain and it provides fiber, lignans and omega-3 essential fatty acids. Eat to your health.

My 1st NutriBlast Creation

     Today I got creative and made up my own NutriBlast.  I added one large carrot, one large Gala apple, 2 cups of Dole pineapple with a dash of cinnamon and some cubes of ice.  It was delightfully delicious.  The funny part was I made enough for my husband and son.  They at first were reluctant to try my NutriBlast creation.  My son immediately said he was full and my husband stood by the kitchen door saying he was not going to be the first giney pig to try it.  So I decided to just pour enough into a 1/2 cup measuring cup.  They both were pleasantly surprised and both of them asked for seconds.

     So any time you can provide something as good as a NutriBlast to your family for their health.  That is a good thing.  We had broccoli at dinner and my son was so impressed with the NutriBlast I created he suggested next time add the broccoli to it.  I said yeah, that sounds good.  So next time I will add another veggie to the NutriBlast.  

     This is what I call a win win.  The NutriBullet takes hard to eat veggies and fruits and breaks it down, leaving the nutrients for our bodies to absorb.  I think this is a keeper.  And it feels good to know that I am adding good fuel to my body.  Foods that the maker intended for us to eat when he dropped Adam and Eve off in The Garden of Eden.

Center for Disease Control recommends we get in eight to nine fruits and vegetables a day.  This is great way to get started.
