Dr. Bach is not only the creator of the Superfood Mix (www.SuperfoodMix.com) I have grown to love and add to my daily diet, but he is also a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, a Naturopathic Doctor, a Doctor of Philosophy, and I’m not quite sure what LC means, but I assume it’s something beneficial! haha!

If you don’t feed your kids breakfast, you may as well just keep them home from school. As a former teacher, I know parents expect the teachers to work their hardest to teach their children as much as they possibly can and in the most effective way possible. We had students with special needs and had to learn to teach the same material in many different ways so we could cater to everyone.

So many people tell me they would eat healthy if it was a little more affordable. They simply believe it costs too much to eat healthy food and almost use it as an excuse.
I hate to break it to you…but you can no longer use that excuse. I’m officially taking it away by telling you how to eat healthier foods without breaking the bank.

Eat Right
1. Eat breakfast! It’s the most important meal of the day! Try to include protein (i.e. eggs), fruit, and a whole grain (i.e. whole grain waffles, cereals, or breads)…the “grainier”, the better!
2. Choose whole-grain foods, such as whole-wheat bread, oatmeal, brown rice, and even whole wheat pizza crust, more often.
3. Vary your veggies. Go dark green and orange with your vegetables—eat spinach, broccoli, green beans, carrots, and sweet potatoes.
4. Focus on fruits. Eat them at meals, and at snack time, too.
5. Get your calcium-rich foods. To build strong bones serve low-fat and fat-free milk, yogurt and other milk products several times a day.
6. Go lean with protein. Eat lean or low-fat meat, chicken, turkey, and fish. Also, add dry beans and peas when possible. Add chick peas, black beans, nuts, or seeds to a salad.
7. Veggies first. If you’re still hungry and want seconds, take more vegetables first.
8. Get your oil from fish, nuts, and liquids such as flax and olive oil.
9. Choose foods and beverages that do not have sugar and caloric sweeteners as one of the first ingredients. Added sugars contribute calories with few, if any, nutrients.

Summer is the time where we all like to get together. Kids are out of school and parents want to play together just as much as their children do. So we have picnics, we have play dates, we have swimming parties and beach parties. But here lies the question…what do we usually eat when we attend these parties?

Proof that eating healthy (even in a hurry) can taste WONDERFUL!!!
I love eating healthy, but I also don’t want to spend my entire life in the kitchen! I’ve listed a few meals that your family will love to eat just as much as you love the little time it takes to prepare them!

When we think of eating in a hurry, we’re trained to think “fast food restaurant” as opposed to “REAL food fast”. We want a drive thru and we want it not only delivered to our door, but literally placed in our hands. We’ll pay more than we will in a grocery store if it means we don’t have to shop through the isles to get it. Besides, that takes extra time and energy.

I first met Javier (10 years old) and I thought I had my work cut out for me. He was not a fan of vegetables and chose to tell me so many times. I’m not quite sure what happened, but something seemed to have clicked in Javier’s mind where he knew his family and I were simply trying to help, but most importantly, he wanted to help himself.
