Three tablespoons of hemp seeds contains 11 grams of protein! Hemp seeks contain a good ratio of omega fatty acids, which are anti-inflammatory… and the list of benefits goes on!

The elimination of toxins has been considered a mainstay of wellness for centuries. And, it’s really much simpler than is sounds. Here are a few ways to optimize your body’s natural detoxification:
1. Promote Daily Bowel Movements by drinking plenty of water and eating fiber (plant material); use enemas and colonics as necessary.
2. Use Saunas for Detox… (unless you doctor advises otherwise). Fat tends to hold onto toxins, and it has been shown that regular saunas, help to detoxify and improve health.
3. Healthy Foods Help to Detoxify the Body… the key to detoxification is through lifestyle… exercise, drinking plenty of pure water, and eating foods that promote the elimination of toxins… fruits, vegetable, nuts, and seeds. Try to eat at least 51 percent raw each day. Raw, living foods are packed with nutrients and are easy to digest, providing your body with energy and the power to detoxify.
Ann Wigmore, the founder of the Living Foods Lifestyle, felt that dis-ease is the result of toxins that have built up in the body and a lack of proper nutrients. And, she taught that “Living Foods” are important to achieve and maintain wellness because they are packed with nutrients, easy to digest, and aid in detoxification.
We constantly have clients that complain of abdominal bloating and distention. This is often caused by gases that build up in the intestines. You might wonder what could cause all of this gas! Some of the possibilities include a lack of fiber in the diet, overeating animal protein, dairy intolerance, or intestinal parasites. Take a look at this article by Josephine Goffe-Gardner, RN, ND to find answers related to abdominal bloating and distention.
Incorporating wheatgrass into your health and wellness may prove to be one of the most effective practices known to humans. Health pioneer and “mother of wheatgrass”, Ann Wigmore, experienced this first handedly. Having witnessed her grandmother’s applications of plants, grasses and herbs, when Ann was diagnosed with colon cancer at age 50, she began using wheatgrass as a part of her healing regime along with what is now called the Living Foods Lifestyle ®. Within a year of committing to the lifestyle, Ann was cancer free. Having succeeded in her taking back her health, she continued to focus and learn about the healing properties of wheatgrass. Observation, investigation and promotion of its uses at her reputable co-establisments (the Hippocrates Institute & the Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute) still exists today. At each of these healing facilities, the uses of wheatgrass are taught and implemented along with the Living Foods Lifestyle ® as well as for colon cleansing.

For those of you that avoid dairy products, almond milk is a great is a great alternative to traditional cow’s milk. It has no lactose or cholesterol and can be considered a raw, living food if the nuts are soaked and sprouted prior to making the milk.
Almonds are rich in magnesium, potassium and copper. They are also very high in vitamin E, selenium and calcium, which are anti-oxidants and may reduce the risk of various types of cancer. Almond milk made straight from ground almonds and water is very high in all of these nutrients.
Check out the following link for a great raw almond milk recipe. And, if you choose to purchase almond milk, check out the ingredients because most of them contain very little almond!
