He additionally provides suggestions for train, feeding children, dietary supplements, kitchen staples, and a pattern 10-day consuming plan and to-do record.

It’s additionally very conversationally written, so whereas it contains a number of science-backed information and peer-reviewed research, it’s a straightforward learn.

Notes I took on my cellphone whereas studying:

– Smoothies with diverse components

– Water with a pinch of Himalayan sea salt, cayenne, and lemon within the am

– Meals with excessive chlorophyll content material: chard, kale, spirulina, chlorella

– Discover a higher water supply. We now have reverse osmosis right here on the home, however it hasn’t been serviced because the first time we lived right here. So we haven’t been utilizing it. I’ve been filling the big water jugs from Complete Meals. Although I’m looking for a greater possibility (glass bottles, an awesome filter like Berkey, or perhaps a supply service). You probably have any concepts, please let me know!

As a non-vegan who loves vegan meals, I’m enthusiastic about making an attempt among the new recipes in Superlife. They’re all vibrantly coloured and filled with veggies.
