Summer Solistice

It's here!!! The longest day of the year!!!
The weather is balmy but it's not raining. With all The events in Vancouver it's not hard to' find something to' do. Were surrounded by beauty and activity.
Today my family will be' dedicating our day to' summer celebrations!! Dinner will have a colorful appearance with fresh vegetables and low SALT, low fat meats. Lots of flowers as a centerpiece and casual comfy clothes! After dinner we'll be' celebrating with martini's and fruit skewers for dessert.

Don't miss out on our longest day of the year! It's a great day to' celebrate cause after this it gets darker a minute a day until winter solstice!!!!

The sun has shown a little ambition....but we need a lil boost!!!!!!

With summer comes outdoor sports, more cocktailz than hydration and less sleep than were used to.
With that being said here are a couple tips to keep that body thriving...
Minerals are super important and always ova looked...easy solution go to your nearest healthfood store or even muscle bound outlet and grab trace minerals...super inexpensive and worth every penny. We use a brand called MONNEL

WHY DO WE NEED TRACE MINERALS?

Trace minerals help to boost the immune system and keep it strong. Vitamins, minerals and trace minerals work together inside the body at a cellular level. Vitamins, minerals and trace minerals work together to make each other more absorbable or useable by the body. For example the body is unable to properly absorb calcium unless vitamin D is present. The body is not able to properly use calcium unless magnesium is present. Vitamins, Minerals and trace minerals also team up to perform specific tasks inside the body. For example. Vitamin E, when teamed with Selenium, destroys free radicals. Manganese, when teamed with vitamin B-1 and Choline, aids the body in digestion. If you do not get enough vitamins, minerals and trace minerals, your body will not function properly. Minerals are inorganic substances that the body CANNOT make on it's own. You must get minerals from the food you eat or through supplementation.

Next up.... don't skip meals!!! Biggest mistake a body and mind can make. Smaller meals always the best way and better to avoid summer bloating.

Always have fun but be safe and take care of that body...It's you vehicle for life.

Sun and Fun

The peek of the sun has me ready to BBQ. Grilled Ribs with Jack Daniel's BBQ Sauce and summer sausage stir fry and strawberry greens...
Always go with Pork Ribs..tho they may have a bit more fat they have a whole lot more flavor..
Summer Sausage stirfry with green red and yellow pepper, red onion, zucchini is not only full of color but busting in taste and flavor....the trick is whole cloves of fresh garlic and fresh cracked pepper....deeee-licious!!
Salad is always the bets way to balance out your meat dishes...
Spinach, Arugala, Strawberries and Feta makes a tasty salad with a nice vinagrette...healthy, great for your digestive system and looks beautiful on your table!!
