Dang, That’s Good 😍

This nail polish from LONDONTOWN actually stays on even when I do the dishes?!?! I love a fresh mani but am usually so disappointed with the quality of the nail polish. So, I started looking for a brand I can trust and I finally found one!

Everyone’s talking about the benefits of collagen and I was truthfully quite skeptical. I drink a homemade smoothie almost every morning and decided to try adding BioTrust’s Ageless Multi-Collagen Powder to it. I love that there’s no change in taste and I feel fuller. I’ll check back with you on it I noticed a difference in my skin and hair!

7 Hacks For Healthier Cooking

These small changes to the way you cook can lead to big improvements in your health, wellness and waistline!

1. Start With Healthy Ingredients: Opt for whole grains, lean proteins, and a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables. These ingredients not only provide essential vitamins and minerals but also add a burst of flavor and vibrancy to your dishes.

2. Embrace Healthy Cooking Methods: Opt for methods like steaming, grilling, baking, or sautéing instead of deep frying. These methods help preserve the natural goodness of ingredients without adding unnecessary fats.

3. Cut Back on Added Sugars and Salt: Experiment with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, and use herbs and spices to enhance flavor without relying on excessive salt. Your taste buds will adjust, and you'll appreciate the true essence of each ingredient.

4. Incorporate Healthy Fats: Not all fats are created equal, and including the right fats in your cooking can be beneficial. Choose sources of healthy fats, such as olive oil, avocados, and nuts, to provide essential fatty acids that support heart health and overall well-being.

5. Portion Control: Consider using smaller plates, bowls, and utensils to encourage moderation. This simple change can make a significant difference in managing caloric intake.

6. Get More Veggies Into Every Meal: Experiment with different cooking techniques to make vegetables the star of your dishes. Roasting, grilling, or incorporating them into soups and stews are delicious ways to elevate their flavors.

7. Hydrate Without Sugary Drinks: Instead of sugary drinks, opt for water infused with fresh herbs, citrus slices, or cucumber. Herbal teas and sparkling water can also add a refreshing twist without the added calories and sugars.
