Raw Oatmeal

Raw Oatmeal


For breakfast, I love raw oatmeal. I soak 1/2 to 1 cup of mixed rolled oats and steel cut oats in almond milk for 1 to 2 hours in the dehydrator. I love the chewy texture and taste of warm milk. I do not have this every morning because of Candida issue, but when I do I enjoy it with joy.

Why Blend Food?

Why Blend Food?


Blending is an excellent way to receive nutrients for healthy people or people with health challenges because blending provides a complete meal and it is pre-digested. Therefore, the body does not have to work hard to assimilate nutrients. When Rejuvelac is used in preparing the green soup, it acts as an antioxidant. Be cautious not to blend the skins of oranges and grapefruits because they contain toxin as well as carrot and rhubarb greens. Always to remove pits and core of apples, peaches, and plums since they contain cyanide.

Danger In Your Grocery Cart 4: Hydrogenated Oils And Trans Fats

When you are grocery shopping and going up and down the isles and grabbing boxes of crackers, cookies, salad dressings, chips, pastries, peanut butter, cake mixes,frozen foods, or other processed foods, do you read your the ingredients lists? If you don't, you must.

If you see the hydrogenated oils, partially hydrogenated oils, or trans fat in the ingredient list, you might want to consider putting it back on the shelf because it is not worthy of your hard earn money.

First, what are these oils and fats? They are artificially produced to increase the shelf life of the food products. These ingredients are detrimental to your health.

When it comes to fat, trans fat is considered by some doctors to be the worst of them all because of its double-barreled impact on your cholesterol levels. Unlike other fats, trans fat — also called trans-fatty acids — both raises your "bad" (LDL) cholesterol and lowers your "good" (HDL) cholesterol.


Trans fat may increase inflammation, which is a process by which your body responds to injury. It's thought that inflammation plays a key role in the formation of fatty blockages in heart blood vessels. Trans fat appears to damage the cells lining blood vessels, leading to inflammation.http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/trans-fat/CL00032/NSECTIONGROUP=2

Due to the organizations like CSPI and Public Citizen, the FDA required food companies to list trans fat content in January, 2006. There are clear evidences of the link between trans fats and cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. Also, obesity, suppressed immune system, decreased testosterone, deficiency of essential fatty acid, brain function disorders, abnormal sperm production, and low birth weight infants have been linked to hydrogenated oils and trans fats as well. 

"The FDA has decided that since trans fats should be entirely avoided in the diets of all human beings, there is consequently no recommended daily allowance of trans fats. Thus, manufacturers of foods cannot list the trans fat content of their food products in any "meaningful" way on the label, according to the FDA" (Grocery Warning, Mike Adams)


It is very difficult to avoid trans-fatty acids because they are in so many processed foods we consume. Remember, all hydrogenated oils contain trans fats. Please read labels and educate yourself to protect your own health.  Unfortunately, the food manufacturing companies or processed food companies have no interest in your health.  You are the only one who can protect and invest in your future.

What Should We Do With The Leftover Juice Pulp?

crunchy, filling, and nutritious

If you are like me, I juice everyday.  I used to dump the pulp in the compost for gardening or garbage. I felt so bad every time I had to just throw away, so I decided to experiment with it. I made most delicious crackers with leftover fruit and veggie pulp. I love them, and also I use every bit of fruits and veggies without throwing them away. And here is how.

5 to 8 cups carrots, celery, apples. beet, cucumber, or any other pulp (mixed)
1 cup ground flax seeds or chia seeds
1 cup almond pulp, dried (leftover from almond milk, optional)
3 to 4 cups purified water (just enough to wet)

Combine them all together and mix well.  Add more water if you need. Spread on the Teflex sheet using your hands and smooth the top with the icing spatula. Dehydrate at 110 degrees for 6 to 8 and flip it over onto the mesh.  Dehydrate until it is completely dry.  Store them air tight container for a long time. Serve with almond butter.  Delicious!!!!

Spring Cleaning Of Your Body

I really learned so much while I was up at Creative Health Institute (CHI) for 10 days detoxification.  I felt compelled to bring CHI detox to Youngstown.  The detox class will be very similar to CHI but with a bit of twist.  I realize that most of us have to work during 3 day detox.  We have responsibilities.  If we are at a place where you just relax and detox, we can do just like CHI, but that is NOT an option for you.

Remember our body is a machine.  Do you not change oil and clean out your car engine to work efficiently?  Your body needs TLC from you.  This is one way to help yourself.  Come and learn to spring clean your body!!!!!

I have contacted wheat grass growing place in Akron, Ohio.

The dates are:
*April 10, Sun, 1pm to 4pm.  This class is for people who HAVE attended the living food class. The cost is not determined.

*April 30, Sat, 1pm to 5pm.  This class is for anyone who wants to learn detox. The cost is not determined.

Please call if you are interested in detox.  330 727 7251 or 330 953 1097

The next post is going to be how to use your leftover pulp from your juicing.
