SuperBowl Made Fabulous!

As America is getting ready for the super bowl, many of my clients are concerned about the damage party foods may do to their bodies. I think life is about enjoyment, not deprivation and kicking back with your friends and having a great time is a part of life. However, there are small things you can do to minimize the nutritional damage SuperBowl snacks may do. Here are a few simple tricks and recipes that can help you do just that. 

1. To boost your metabolism, do interval cardio (20 seconds very fast, 10 seconds slow) on Friday and Sunday and do weight training on Saturday.

2. Practice dry skin brushing in the morning to stimulate your lymphatic system and decrease bloating.

3. Have a half of a grapefruit before the party. 

4. Take a vegetarian Digestive Enzyme to help you digest cooked food. Non-vegetarian enzymes have strange ingredients you may not want to have in your body.

5. If you are going to a party, bring your own food to contribute to the pot luck. That way you will know exactly what you are eating. 

Below are two recipes that are full of fiber that will help your digestive system.
