Mindset Health Tip
The best investment you can make is in yourself.
You control your outcome and opportunity for success.
Small, Smart Choices + Consistency + Time = Radical Difference
So if you are planning to make some changes for 2024, my best advice is to start with one thing.
Get consistent.
Then add another.
Get consistent.
Then add another.
Lather… Rinse… Repeat…
Functional Medicine Corner
Happy New Year Mindset community!! I’m excited for 2024 and all the growth and excitement it will bring! Especially in the coming winter months, I also want to do what I can to keep my immune system as strong and healthy as possible. This is one of many reasons why the WODs are so important to me. And this is one of my motivations to use food as (yummy!) medicine. Below are a few ways to get some important nutrients that can support and strengthen our immune systems.
Vitamin C – This helps to strengthen white blood cells so they can quickly and effectively rid the body of bacteria and viruses. It is also a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. You can get almost as much vitamin C in 1 large yellow bell pepper as from 1 cup of 100% orange juice (about 350mg). One kiwi and one cup of tomato juice can also provide about 170mg of vitamin C.
Vitamin D – This supports creation of a strong barrier to protect us from germs, as well as works to prevent over-production of inflammatory molecules when we are ill. Although it is always more efficient to get our D from the sun, one cup of mushrooms and 3 oz of several types of fish (especially rainbow trout and salmon) can provide moderate amounts of vitamin D (about 650IU).
Zinc – This nutrient helps to develop and maintain white blood cells. It helps to support healthy mucus membranes as well. Cooked oysters are the best way to supplement with food – 3 ounces provides more than 50mg! Three ounces of beef or bison, or 1 scoop of whey protein powder can also provide about 8 mg. Pumpkin and sunflower seeds as well as black beans are also great sources!

What’s the difference between a juice and a smoothie?
- The main difference is fiber. Most of the insoluble fiber is removed in the juicing process.
- By taking the fiber out, you can pack more fruit & veggie nutrients into a juice than you can into a smoothie of the same size.
- The lack of insoluble fiber allows your body to rapidly absorb the nutrients while expending minimal digestive effort.
- Smoothies are made by pulverizing fruit/veggies with liquid in a blender. The insoluble fiber, which helps keep things moving through your system, is maintained in the process.
What are the benefits of juice?
- Several servings of fruit & veg nutrition effortlessly absorbed without energy taxing digestion.
- Easy way to incorporate more fruits and veg in diet than eating produce alone.
- Boosts immunity and energy. Alkalizing, chronic illness prevention, helps aid in weight loss, clear skin, healthy hair.
