It's not a FAD, It's a MOVEMENT!

I was introduced in clean eating in May of 2013. At that time, I knew a few people who read labels and others that veered away from gluten.  That May I was asked to do the Arbonne 28 Day Clean Eating Challenge and my world has never been the same. It not only revolutionized my kitchen.....It created an income stream by serving others up the same nutritious education.

This Clean Eating thing, is not a FAD.  Parachute Pants, that was a fad.  Humans caring to know what is in the food they are eating is a MOVEMENT.  Last March, my local grocery store chain (HEB) came out with an entire line of organic foods.  It is a global movement according to Robyn O'Brien's recent article.

Along with the changes at the store, more and more people are joining my Arbonne team to share and educate and learn about wellness.  I met with three people this week who are interested in joining this business because they believe in wellness and wealth!

What we put IN our bodies and ON our bodies really do matter.

Arbonne has been around for 35 years and has ALWAYS been mindful of their ingredients. The Clean Eating Challenge's I lead teaches people how to eat REAL food and most importantly, WHY.

There is not one drink or pill that will restore your health.  It starts with FOOD.

If you are looking to get healthy and don't know where to start.  Or if you are looking for an additional income stream to add to your finances.  NOW is the time.  Arbonne is the place. We are a global business that HAS what people are looking for.  There is a storm of success brewing, the tides are shifting.  Get on board and ride!

If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it! 

Quinoa "May Save Your Life" Salad

Try this delish quinoa dish at your next potluck, or just make a big batch of it to munch on during the week. I first had this at a friends house who was having a birthday tea party.  It was so yummy, I have been eating it ever since.

Quinoa, pronounced (Keen Wah), is a seed from a grain with many nutritional benefits.

Researchers have looked at certain antioxidant phytonutrients in quinoa, and two flavonoid - quercetin and kaempferol - are now know to be provided by quinoa in concentrated amounts. Some find their concentration can be greater than in other superfoods like berries.

I have been looking into what quercetin is since it is an ingredient in a new product, Thermobooster, I started taking. According to WebMD, Quercetin is used for treating conditions of the heart and blood vessels including, "hardening of the arteries", high cholesterol, heart disease and circulation problems.  It is also used for diabetes, cataracts, hay fever, peptic ulcer, schizophreina, inflammation, asthma, gout, viral infections, chronic fatigue syndrome, preventing CANCER, and for treating chronic infections of the prostate.  Quercetin is also used to increase endurance and improve athletic performance.

Who knew a simple salad could save your life.
