Most of the samples I receive are more on the beauty side of health and beauty, so receiving the vitamin chews and energy shots I'm about to share with you guys was a nice change of pace (and a tasty one, at that)! If you like yellow Starbursts, then you'll love these Vitamin C with Zinc Super Chews. That's exactly what they taste like! They're not only delicious, though. Vitamin C, Zinc, and Echinacea strengthen the immune system while B Vitamins provide the energy support your...

I mentioned my curiosity concerning Naked Juice's Gold Machine in a previous post, but I failed to share my thoughts after I finally tried it. It's so delicious! I tend to enjoy fresh pineapple a lot more than pineapple juices and pineapple-flavored treats, but the passion fruit and banana compliment the pineapple so well in this smoothie! And as with most Naked Juices, Gold Machine is full of important nutrients like Vitamins A, B, C, and E, as well as Zinc and Antioxidants. It's a rare...

    I recently read a Care2 article that listed Five Ways to Add Years to Your Life, and it inspired me to eat at least a cup of raw vegetables a day. I've always known cooked vegetables aren't quite as healthy as raw, but 30% fewer antioxidants is a big deal! Wednesday morning I had the bowl of carrots, broccoli, and celery pictured above with a bit of Liquid Aminos on top. Thursday I had a baby spinach salad with carrots, broccoli, avocados and tomatoes...

Okay, guys. I'm probably about to sound really lame, but please try your best to avoid any harsh judgement. I recently joined an online tea community called Steepster where people can share what tea they're drinking and how they feel about the tea as a whole. You can even stock a virtual cupboard with the teas that you actually have at home! I'm pretty intrigued by the whole thing, because I'm approaching this experience as a welcomed opportunity to learn about new, awesome teas....

Kirby and I went out in search of hand towels for our bathroom a couple of days ago, and I came across some really tasty looking tea at Ross. We found a couple of hand towels as well, but they weren't an ideal color.. so we decided to head over to Marshalls and come back to Ross if we couldn't find anything there. I carefully tucked my special tea away in the bottom of a pile of items to keep it safe while I was away. Imagine my surprise when I found the same brand of tea in...

Genesis Today Acai Berry Juice- This tasty juice is packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and B vitamins (including Biotin, which supports healthy skin, hair, and nails-YAY!).

Kirby told me about this website yesterday, and I've been exploring/loving it nonstop since. I even got the GoodGuide app for my phone, which allows you to scan the barcode of a...

I received the most delicious, free, organic, dark chocolate bar in the mail today. I already sort of  liked it before I tried it. I'm always up for dark chocolate since it's loaded with antioxidants, and we all know that antioxidants neutralize free radicals. This chocolate bar has fancy ingredients like organic meals from raspberries and cranberries and organic oils from pumpkin seeds, cranberries, and raspberries. It's also made with organic blueberries and organic lemon essential oil. You can definitely taste the lemon, but it's just very subtle and very tasty. I let Kirby and Danielle try it,...

I enjoy an occasional glass or three of red wine.  I recently stopped hating the taste of it, and I'd choose a glass of Merlot over a glass of Chardonnay any day.  I'm not a wine connoisseur, by any means, but I know that I prefer the taste of red to white. I've been able to justify my consumption of wine thus far because of the antioxidants that it provides and the effect that it has on both good and bad cholesterols.  Apparently, though, dark grape...

I drink a lot of juice, and I've made it a personal goal of mine to only drink juices that add something other than sugar and water to my diet. Because of this, I've obviously been doing some research.  I've learned some pretty interesting facts about all sorts of juices, but apple juice is what I'd like to discuss right now. Other than buying organic, I've never been too picky when buying apple juice.  Apparently, whether or not the apple juice I'm buying is organic is is only one...

Link to I find new reasons to drink coffee every single day.

photo credit: laurensdekoning I steered clear of coffee for years because I thought that it was bad for me(and it probably would've been with all the cream and sugar that I used to add when I occasionally indulged in coffee).  Who knows why I thought that , but something tells me that a lot of people are under the same impression.  I've been reading loads of articles lately that...
