• Eat in a Calm and Relaxed Setting

Digestion requires a calm and relaxing setting. The body and mind should be relaxed. This allows for the parasympathetic to become activated. The heart rate slows down, promotes digestion, promotes salvia and stimulates the digestive organs.

• Eat Slowly

Eating slowly allows for the digestive secretions in the mouth (chemical digestion) and stomach to be stimulated. This also allows for time for the body to become aware of satiety.

• Chew Food Completely

Both mechanical and chemical digestion begins in the mouth. The act of chewing breaks food apart – larger food is broken down into small pieces by the teeth. Chewing also starts saliva production. Here, starch digestion begins and prepares food for entry into the stomach.


• Include Whole, Nutrient Dense and Fiber Rich Foods

Including whole, nutrient dense and fiber rich foods provide the body with essential nutrients. These foods help us to grow, repair and thrive.


• Eat Small Frequent Meals

Small frequent meals ease the digestive process. A good rule of thumb to ease the digestive process is to try to eat before the stomach is 20% empty and stop eating before it is 80% full.

• Practice Relaxation and Calming Activities

Activities that promote relaxation and calm assist in stress reduction. Activities such as meditation, yoga or deep breathing help to create a relaxing environment that is beneficial to good digestion.

• Add Herbs


The addition of herbs to food and diet assist in stimulating digestive secretions and enzymes. Herbs also provide additional nutrient density in the diet through providing vitamins, mineral and phytonutrients


• Keep the Body Hydrated


Hydration assists in digestion and absorption of nutrients. Generous amount of water is required each day for the body to function optimally. A good way to determine daily water intake is to divide body weight in half and drink the resulting number in ounces.


• Include Prebiotics and Probiotics


The inclusion of prebiotics and probiotics nourish and feed the beneficial flora (good bacteria) in the gastrointestinal system. These substances enhance the growth good bacterial, fight off toxins and enhance immunity.


• Get Moving With Exercise

Exercise reduced stress, tones gastrointestinal muscle, removes toxins and moved nutrients to cells.

What do you do when your check engine light comes on?


For most, the first response is, "Go to in for service!"

What do you do when your the check engine light in your body goes on?

If you are like most, you continue to plow through like the rest of us! Work, family and everything in between takes priority. However, shouldn't we treat our body as well as we treat our car?

Wonderful Soup!

Thanks to Rebecca Katz. Check out her book...great stuff

The Inner Cook Nourishing Life One Bite at a Time ®
Magic Mineral Broth™
© 2008 Rebecca Katz. Recipe from One Bite at a Time by Rebecca Katz, The Inner Cook.

This broth alone can keep people going, especially when they don’t particularly want to eat. It’s not just a regular vegetable stock. This pot of yum is high in potassium and numerous trace minerals that are often depleted by cancer therapy. Sipping this nutrient‐rich stock is like giving your body an internal spa treatment. Drink it like a tea, or use it as a base for all your favorite soups and rice dishes. Don’t be daunted by the ingredient list. Simply chop the ingredients in chunks and throw them in the pot, roots, skins, and all.

Ingredients

• 6 unpeeled carrots, cut into thirds

• 2 unpeeled medium yellow onions, cut into chunks

• 1 leek, both white and green parts, cut into thirds

• 1 bunch celery, including the heart, cut into thirds

• 5 unpeeled cloves garlic, halved

• 1/2 bunch fresh flat‐leaf parsley

• 4 medium red potatoes with skins on, quartered

• 2 Japanese or regular sweet potatoes with skins on, quartered

• 1 Garnet yam with skin on, quartered

• 1 8‐inch strip of kombu

• 2 bay leaves

• 12 black peppercorns

• 4 whole allspice or juniper berries

• 1 tablespoon sea salt

Rinse all the vegetables well, including the kombu. In a 12‐quart or larger stockpot, combine all the ingredients accept the salt. Fill the pot to 2 inches below the rim with water, cover, and bring to a boil.

Remove the lid, decrease the heat to low, and simmer a minimum of 2 hours. As the stock simmers some of the water will evaporate; add more if the vegetables begin to peek out. Simmer until the full richness of the vegetables can be tasted. Add the salt and stir.

Strain the stock using a large coarse‐mesh strainer (remember to use a heat‐resistant container underneath). Bring to room temperature before refrigerating or freezing.

Makes 6 to 7 quarts

Magic Mineral Broth can be frozen up to 6 months in a variety of airtight container sizes for every use.
