Alex's Tricks and Favorite Energy Boosting Foods

 

Many of you will remember that I’m involved in several big projects right now:

-       writing a new nutrition and lifestyle book for the Dummies series

-       coaching the 8 Week Wellness and Detox Tele-Course

-       working with private clients to help them resolve their health concerns

-       potty-training and raising my 2 ½ year old son

-       speaking at schools and conferences

 

Whew! I could use a cup of coffee! Actually, that is how I used to think when I needed energy to get through the day. But constant caffeine use only lead me quickly down the rabbit-hole to major health problems, so now I use these foods on a regular basis to keep me focused, energized and working:

- leafy greens: at least 1 serving of leafy greens a day (broccoli, kale, spinach, bok choy, you name it!)

- water, water, water: drink at least 1 glass upon waking, 1 glass between breakfast and lunch and at least 1 between the hours of 2 PM and 5 PM.

- sprouts: full of energy, vitamin C and enzymes, these little beauties are easy to integrate into salads, sandwiches or stir-fry dishes

- keep an eye out for my secret list of "must-have" supplements!

Be well,

Alex

My very hardworking friend(full time city bus operator and weekend farmer)is currently following the advice in your book Great American DeTox Diet
and is thrilled with the results!
He is loosing weight rapidly and can now tolerate the high 90 degree weather here in Central Texas when doing his farm chores. He is feeling so much healthier and as a Native American with diabetes issues is very grateful! Thanks Alex!!
