Does your kid struggle with health issues?

My friend Jess is a naturapath and she really knows what she is doing when it comes to getting kids on a healthy eating path. As I'm sure you are aware, a lot of 'modern' foods can cause problems with our health along with food intolerance's and allergies.

Jess runs a great program Natural Super Kids which will help you figure out what is causing the problems and how to get your kids eating the right things so that they stay healthy and strong.




She also has some great ways to help you get over food battles when it comes to fussy kids. As you know, I have never had this problem with Ebi-kun (the opposite in fact!) but I do have friends that have signed up for her program and had great results.




Not only sick and fussy kids... she helps parents work out what foods are triggering behaviour problems too, I'm telling you, she is a wonder woman! So if you kids have melt downs over what seems to be nothing or go from reasonable and calm to bat-shit crazy in next to no time, she will help you work that out.

I know, sounds too goo to be true right? I have done her program as a beta tester and Ebi-kun enjoyed watching her videos too and she has a great FB group where you can go and ask questions and share your wins. 

If you are interested it enrollment is open for a few more days Click HERE to find out more.

Death Of The Juicer... and our favourite recipes for smoothies


We have had to say a sad goodbye to our juicer. It has served us well being used almost every day for 18 months but as time went on it was becoming more and more inefficient and costing us more to produce 3 glasses of juice.

I asked around and the Nutribullet came well recommended. It has taken a bit of time to get use to using it, give short blasts ad getting the water amounts right but I'm getting the hag of it now. It's also been a bit weird going back to smoothies after having juices for such a long time.

I do feel like we waste less with the smoothies, when you make juice you are left with all the fibre and there isn't a great deal you can do with it. I did try a few recipes but non of them went down well. At least with a smoothie you use all of it.

The one thing I ABSOLUTELY love with the Nutribullet is the clean up, seconds i tell you, it is so easy. No scrubbing 17 different parts, its just the piece with the blade on and the cup -SO easy.





Above we have:
1 orange
1 mango
1 carrot

other favorites are:

Green smoothie
Big handful of spinach
2 Kiwi
Banana

Pink smoothie
1/2 fresh beet
banana
mixed frozen berries

They are pretty safe options but I also throw in whatever happens to be in the fridge/fruit bowl. Broccoli stalk is good, avocado makes it creamy, go easy on the fresh ginger and give celery a miss!

If you have any favourite recipes, please share!
