Stay Healthy

Drinking pure water, tea, kombucha, and hemp milk are your best sources of liquids. To stay healthy you want to avoid soda pop, fruit juices, excessive milk products, excessive alcohol (ideally limit of one glass of red wine an evening), all other canned foods and practically all processed foods. A few packaged items seem to be healthy but be sure to check the labels very carefully.

To keep from spiking your blood sugar or slowing down your metabolism to stay healthy, it is very important to eat your first meal of the day within one hour of waking up. It is equally important in staying healthy to space your eating of a small completely balanced meal every 2 ½ to 4 hours during the day. Impossible you say?

The shortcut is to drink a meal replacement powder shake by just adding water. Look for one that is balanced close to approximately 30-40-30 percent calories of protein, carbohydrates and good fats. This is a great way to stay on your eating schedule when you are unable to eat a regular meal on time. It is not recommended you drink a meal replacement powder more than twice in a day. You still need your live raw foods and the variety of balanced cooked foods as well each day to stay healthy.

This part of the shortcut involves planning your 4+ meals the day before. This means knowing exactly when, what, where and how much you will eat at each meal one day in advance. At first this might seem burdensome, but after a few days, you will experience relief and save a lot of time not having to think about your eating during the day.

Stay Healthy With The Slow Burn

The easy exercise shortcut to stay healthy involves 30 minutes two days a week doing weight or resistance band training. The secret is to use the slow burn method. This involves doing one set of 7 different exercises, each set of exercises consisting of one set of 6 slow reps (each rep is 7 seconds up and 7 seconds down). Choose 7 exercises that cover the entire body, including legs, arms, shoulders, back, abs, etc. Do not do just upper body one day and the lower body another day.

In addition to the above, add two day of 20 -30 minutes of interval training. Interval training involves an aerobic activity which allows you to alternate about 4-6 times between 15 seconds of high intensity and 30 seconds of slow intensity (but not stopping). You want to be just barely out of breath at the end of the high intensity activity and be able to easily talk by the end of the lower intensity.

You will know when you are ready to handle greater intensity for longer periods of time. Please remember to check with your doctor before starting the interval training. This interval will get you in great shape quickly and have the added benefit of building very desirable excess capacity to handle periods of excess efforts.

There is no better or more efficient way to stay healthy.
