25.01.2022 Ghee happens to be a superfood in our minds! Rich in nurition and aids the digestive fire, plus with a high smoke point ghee is a perfect addition to any meal!

25.01.2022 Bask: Don't underestimate the power of sunshine in enhancing winter health. But you’ll have to work for it: summer months average 15 hours of daylight and sunshine. In July, you’ll see only about half thatand if you work a typical 9-to-5 job, most of those will be spent in your office or your car. Because circadian rhythm is largely governed by light exposure, sleep and mood can be dramatically affected. And since sun is the body’s primary source of vitamin D, immune functi...on can suffer as well. Schedule your day around the sun: Get outside for at least 10 minutes of sun a day, with as much skin exposed as possible. Schedule walks during the lunch hour, when the sun is at the highest point in the sky. Take vitamin D3 supplements as a backup. Most studies suggest at least 1,000 IU per day.

20.01.2022 Ginger tea soothes the stomach, enhances immunity, protects brain health, and promotes blood sugar control! Recipe below. Recipe: Total Time:1020 minutes Serves:2... Ingredients: 2 cups hot water One 2-inch knob of fresh ginger root (look for ginger that has a thin, shiny skin that can easily be scraped with your fingernail) Fresh lemon juice from 1/2 of a lemon Turmeric (fresh or dried) (Optional) 1 tablespoon raw honey or pure maple syrup for added sweetness and nutrients (Optional) Pinch of cayenne pepper or a cinnamon stick for an extra kick Directions: Wash a 2-inch knob of fresh ginger root and cut it into very thin slices. Peeling isn’t necessary, but you’ll want to scrub off any visible dirt. Add the ginger slices to hot water and boil for 10-20 minutes, depending on how strong you want it to be. Remove from the heat, strain by pouring the tea through a fine sieve to catch all of the ginger. Discard the ginger pieces and add in your choice of lemon, turmeric, raw honey or cayenne to enhance the flavor and beneficial effects. If using turmeric root, cut it into thin slices and simmer with the ginger. You can enjoy your fresh ginger tea either hot or cold based. Store any extra in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. Drink one to three cups daily to maximize the health benefits. Depending on why you’re consuming fresh ginger tea, you may want to add other optional ingredients that support detoxification and your immune system. Here’s a bit about several synergistic ingredients that make great additions to fresh ginger tea: Turmeric Provides the active compound called curcumin, which has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. May help to improve digestive processes and is also considered a warming spice, supporting your metabolism. Lemon juice Helps trick the liver into producing bile, which helps keep food moving through your body and gastrointestinal tract. May also help reduce indigestion and bloating. Raw honey This is a nutrient-dense, natural sweetener that provides you with enzymes and antioxidants that have been shown to support immune function. Cayenne pepper Contains the chemical called capsaicin, which has circulation-boosting abilities and the power to support digestion. It may help stimulate release of enzymes which can help to curb an upset stomach, loss and appetite and cramps.

20.01.2022 Lemon Bergamot (Monarda citriodora) has a perfume-like, intense, almost astringent quality, but it is strongly scented with citrus. Use portions of the flower conservatively in drinks or desserts or in herbal teas.

20.01.2022 Wondering how to make your skin glow? Drink Plenty of Water: There are many reasons you should drink enough water, including it being one of the best things you can do to take care of your skin. Most experts recommend getting at least eight glasses of plain water every single day, and probably even more if you suffer from dry, troublesome skin. Water makes up about 70 percent of your body, and a very large portion of your skin, too!... Water helps to flush toxins from our bloodstream and cells, allowing your body to experience a detox and for it to remove things like bacteria and waste from affecting your skin. Of course, water plays a big role in keeping skin hydrated and looking young without enough of it, we appear aged and dull and can suffer from rough, cracked skin.

19.01.2022 The ubiquitous dandelion (Taxacum officinalis) is entirely edible. When picked small, and unopened, the flower buds have a surprising sweetness, reminiscent of honey. Young greens are also tasty either raw or steamed. Dandelion petals look very nice when scattered over pasta or rice. While dandelions are rather easy to come by, make sure to harvest them only from organic gardens. Avoid any grown near roads or picked from lawns where chemicals may be present.

18.01.2022 Essential oils may help to reduce toxicity by promoting the detoxification of your home and body. These days, we are all inhaling and ingesting a number of chemicals and environmental toxins that can be dangerous for our health. The best oils for reducing toxicity in your home or place of work include grapefruit, orange, lemon, lemongrass, eucalyptus, cinnamon, peppermint and tea tree.

15.01.2022 Looking after your skin? Dry winter weather means more dead skin cells. As skin cells build up, they prevent lotions and creams from penetrating. For moisturizers to work their magic, you’ll need to gently exfoliate that surface layer. Ditch dead skin cells with a mixture of almond or coconut oil and sugar; gently rub over the body, and rinse in the shower. For your face, more TLC is required. Try a natural exfoliant that also contains moisturizing and soothing ingredients such as a Coconut Face Scrub, using sugar, coconut oil, and essential oils of rose or geranium!

07.01.2022 Edible Flowers Series: Calendula All pot marigolds (Calendula officinalis) have flower petals that are edible. They have a nice flavour that ranges from peppery to bitter, and they add bright yellow, gold, and orange colour to soups and salads. They may even tint some dishes like saffron does.

02.01.2022 Avoid nursery-bought Fuchsia (Fuchsia x hybrida) flowers, as they may have been sprayed. Otherwise, the extraordinary looking flowers make great garnishes and have a slightly acidic flavour.
