Have you heard of Bullet Proof Coffee? This is my bullet proof, whole food, vitamin & mineral morning drink.
Body cells need nourishing. Whole food eating is my basis for nourishing my and my kid's body cells. In today's world, our bodies can use every bit of extra cell nourishment we can get.
Recipe:
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup water, gently warm (not hot!) before adding to your blender. This helps the butter blend in.
- 1 tbsp. butter or coconut oil, your choice, I go with pasture raised butter. This helps the body better absorb the fat soluble nutrients.
- 1 1/2 tsp. turmeric - ginger blend
- 1 heaping tbsp. Superfood Plus powder formula
- 1 to 2 mg of iodine drops, when I remember to add it
- 1 tbsp. organic fruit juice concentrate (I use this for my kid's doses as a flavor enhancer. Cherry and grape concentrate work very well.)
****I added to my mix on 10/22/14:
OK, so I just watched the 9th video in The Quest for the Cures series: http://thetruthaboutcancer.com/live/episode9.php
This is The Truth About Cancer video series that talks about cancer; what cancer really is and how to cure the body naturally. I am going to add fresh black pepper to this mix! Fresh as in you do not cook it and best when ground from whole peppercorns.
Blend all the ingredients, gently.
To make it easier, less cleanup, use an 8 oz jam jar. Add the warm water and butter and shake until melted. Add the rest of the ingredients and shake well; lid on please. It makes quite a green mess if you forget the lid!
The turmeric-ginger blend. I buy in 1 lb. bags from Frontier herbs; organic of course. Available through the Potsdam Food Coop or Nature's Storehouse - support your local health food store!
This is the Superfood, www.herbdoc.com. The chorella and spirulina are potent heavy metal detoxers.
There are many green food powders on the market. Try your local health food store. To find one, read ingredients carefully for 100% whole foods. This SuperFood Plus is available wholesale which considerably cuts down the cost. I keep it available and share my wholesale discount.
My indoor herb garden. I chew sprigs of the herbs daily for their medicinal, healing properties.
Last winter the kids and I took Juice Plus over the winter months. We had a great winter, in regards to our health, and avoided all the viral bugs that swarmed about us. We may add JP again this winter. Juice Plus are blends of fruits and veggies that have been juiced and low heat dehydrated. Basically they are fruit and veggie juice powders.

Holistic Healing Taste Testing
I decided to do some taste testing of the holistic healing options in my Northern NY State. As I taste test around Northern NY I will report on my findings.
If any of the healing options speak to you, try them out and report back to me in the comments.
Acupuncture: Ok, I confess, I have used and LOVE acupuncture for over 16 years. The taste test was successful after my very 1st acupuncture treatment. I guess I could say I have become a regular consumer! Acupuncture has helped in healing my sciatica, headaches, low back pain, and menstrual issues (I am sure there have been more!).
Originating in China, traditional acupuncture is the oldest continuously practiced medical system in the world. It is based on natural laws that describe the flow of life energy both in nature and in the body. Acupuncture addresses the needs of the whole person and has the best results when patients use it in conjunction with other health promoting attitudes and behaviors.Well known for relieving pain, traditional acupuncture is actually a holistic approach that addresses body, mind, and spirit.
I recommend you try acupuncture with Shelby Connelly and Five Elements Living. I am certain you will find it a tasty way to support your healing! (315) 262-2622
