Today started out with a thick overcast but has burned off nicely and we are now experiencing a beautiful day in Sunny SoCal! Jerry and I did some light yoga in the park at lunch and came back hungry. Lately we've been exploring adding more raw meals into our diet as well as more juiced meals, primarily focusing on good digestion. With it comes rejuvenation and stellar energy!
Beets an old time superfood have my attention lately. Did you know beet root juice is a liver protective food, can provide more energy through out the day and research has shown that it helps our bodies respond better to exercise by balancing the oxygen and increasing stamina. Loaded with nitrates that help flow blood through out the body and can even aid in lowering blood pressure. Some say it can even help with cancer, aging, digestion and help regulate your metabolism!
