Toxic Health Challenge: Day 2-Hydrogenated Oil
Day 56: July 2nd 2013
Breakfast
My very first Wheatgrass shot! I have been studying and reading up on wheatgrass lately and I am convinced this is a wonder food, a super food and I am so glad to be on this bandwagon. Don’t love the taste so much, but I LOVE the way it makes me feel. Energized and awake and just plain good.
Hot Water Time
Super Smoothie-Check!
Love me some Ginger tea.
Lunch
Had a salad and some cucumber water while studying at lunch today.
Went shopping after work and stocked up on my new obsession. Thank you Sprouts! (I will be growing my own wheatgrass very soon, but until then I am glad I have Sprouts to cater to my new obsession.)
Workout
Took the day off today, I had so much to do this evening. I was a little overwhelmed so I took a guilt-free night off.
Dinner
Organic Ground Beef Spicy Tacos…NOM!

Toxic Health Knowledge: Day 1 – Aspartame
You know me and challenges! I love them!
I started an Instagram challenge yesterday, it’s not so much a challenge…I guess…it’s more of a platform of knowledge and I encourage feedback. Let’s get talking people! What you do not know could hurt you. Ask questions! When I first started on this clean eating/Vegan journey it was overwhelming (and still is) it is so difficult to read ingredients on the foods we buy and actually understand what we are purchasing. So I always found it easier to take it one chemical (ie additives, poison, toxins, etc.) at a time…
So, each day for the next 30 days or so I will do a daily post on Instagram(and probably here too) of the definition and side effects of the chemicals that are put in our food. One chemical each day.
It’s important that we understand what is in our foods, we really are what we eat and why wouldn’t you want to know what you are ingesting. This may get a little disheartening, but just know that there are options and you have a choice to eat clean and grad hold of your health.
