I am currently researching this new “superfood” and would like any comments or references to good research on this drink. I am especially interested in the drink containing the glucosamine which is called the “active” Mona Vie.
Please leave comments about your experiences with Mona Vie and Acai!
Many people ask me about what to eat each and every day. I have many suggestions and things to say about nutrition, but what better way to tell you than to let you know what I eat every morning. So here it is…
Ingredients:
I start off with a fruit-shake that has in it:
1. 1 cup of spring water
2. 1/2 Banana
3. 4 Strawberries
4. ½ cup of blueberries
5. 2 heaping spoonfuls of SP Complete (NOT 10 as I accidentally said in the video!)
6. 2 heaping spoonfuls of SP Whey Protein
How To Put It All Together:
Here is how I make my shake. I pour in the 1 cup of water first. Then add half of a banana (broken up into 2 pieces), the strawberries, and the blueberries. Start the blender. Blend all of the fruit and water up until it is mixed, then add (as the blender is still mixing) through the top, the 4 heaping spoonfuls of SP products. Let this mix in for about 10 seconds and you are good to go!
Super Easy…Super Healthy
This is a very quick and easy breakfast. You will have more energy after a powerful breakfast such as this than you know what to do with. Also, if you are trying to lose weight, make sure you are eating breakfast so that your metabolism starts up early in the morning to start burning those calories.
Now For My Vitamins:
I will let you know what vitamins I take each day to stay healthy. I don’t have enough room here to go into why I take each one, but every one I take is for a specific reason (you can read more about Vitamin D in this newsletter). I take whole food vitamins as opposed to the ones you can buy in the store because they work much better and you don’t have to take as many of them. So here is what I take:
1. Cataplex ACP (Vitamins A, C, and P for permeability into the cells)
2. Cataplex B (B vitamins for energy mainly)
3. Cataplex D (Vitamin D for calcium balance, immunity, and MUCH more)
4. 1 Teaspoon of Carlson’s Lemon Flavored Cod Liver Oil (this is for Vitamin D, Vitamin A, and Omega 3 Fatty Acid’s. I hate the taste of fish…this has NO fish taste whatsoever.)
5. 1 Tablespoon of Clark’s Essential Minerals (If you don’t have all of the essential minerals…your vitamins will NOT work as they are supposed to)
6. Symplex M (for male hormones. There is Symplex F for females).
7. Catalyn (this is my multivitamin for a good all around balance)
8. Cataplex G
9. Tuna Omega 3 Fish Oil
10. Black Current Seed Oil (for specific fatty acids)
11. Wheat Germ Oil (for naturally occurring Vitamin E)
So, as you can see I take quite a few things…but I don’t have to take much of each one. The reason I am able to have so much energy and to stay so healthy is due to this daily regiment. There have been times when I have not done this and I notice a distinct difference. In such a physically demanding job as being a chiropractor, I must do this to be at the top of my game each and every day.
This is a great article by Gary Taubes. I have been reading a book written by Taubes entitled: GOOD CALORIES, BAD CALORIES. This article is a good summary of what is in the book.

I am discovering each and every day in my practice that pretty much all of the healthiest people are obsessed with the relentless pursuit of knowing “More”.This is why so many More health clubs, nutrition clubs, weight loss programs, and healthy restaurants have been birthed here, in the U.S., than anywhere else—because, more than any other nation on earth, we have been completely obsessed recently with the belief in the philosophy of knowing ‘more’ to take your health and lifestyle to the next level.
These days, there’s a lot of foolish criticism of that, a lot from ridiculous hypocrites—people who live a healthy lifestyle, enjoying all the benefits telling you to just take medicine to get rid of your weight, pain, depression, etc.This is the easy way for them, to not tell you the whole truth.They act like somehow that they don’t have time to tell you how to really attain the health you deserve.You want to ignore all of this mis-education and feel proud to be a pursuer of More.The more ‘More’ you pursue and get, the more good you can automatically do for others, and the more good you can deliberately do as well.So, to celebrate “Knowing More” in October we are teaching women how to “Balance Female Hormones The Natural Way”.

On a recent Friday afternoon I was trying to decide if I was going to sit down and read a book or practice my guitar for Sunday’s service.So, I decided to sit down with a book and a cup of coffee to read for a little while.I started reading a new book by Harvey Hook entitled The Power of an Ordinary Life that I ordered off of Amazon.com.I was intending to just check it out for a couple of minutes and see if I liked it and if I wanted to read any further into it.As I sat there, I noticed as hours went by and I eventually ended up reading from cover to cover all in one sitting!This is one of the most inspiring books I’ve read about where successful people (Jim Tressel and Chris Spielman were two examples used in the book) come from.You discover how these figures rise from basically nothing to what you know them as now.It truly shows the difference that “ordinary people” like you and I can make when we are persistent.
