MOVIE WEEK!

Announcements

Welcome Our Summer Interns!

Mindset Health Tip

Movies can be so much fun! We have spoken about the many pillars of health, and don’t forget about your mental health!

I encourage you to think of one of your favorite movies this week. Personally, I love The Princess Bride. Share your favorite with someone you love and spread joy in your circle!

Bring back those deep belly laughs and sore-cheek smiles! Don’t forget the joy that movies and making memories can bring. After all, life moves pretty fast sometimes…

Functional Medicine Corner

This visual is a great reminder of the fact that “leaky gut” can lead to many more symptoms other than just abdominal concerns or bowel irregularities. Taking good care of our gut by focusing more on eating whole foods, getting good sleep, addressing stress, and moving our bodies can help address many different health conditions.

If you have further questions, please feel free to reach out!

Community Partners

Green Box: The Farmers’ Market in a Box from Of the Land!

Of the Land is a family and community farm that believes in the power of food and the beauty in sharing the nature that is around us. They provide organic faire, catering, and one of a kind wedding and event experiences. (And it is run by some pretty incredible human beings–Bridgett and Trent Blough!)

One of the great services Of the Land offers is their Green Box–otherwise referred to as the “Farmers’ Market in a Box!”. The Green Box is a way to source locally grown produce, meats, eggs, dairy, kitchen staples, complete meals, and much more–all from the Of the Land farm and other local farmers, artisans and producers!

You can access the green box via the virtual marketplace here! In the growing season, they offer weekly and bi-weekly subscriptions–you can also do a one-time order as long as you have an order of at least $35!

Here is a great video to learn more about Of the Land and Green Box!

Does Juicy Leaf use organic fruits and vegetables?

• We strictly use certified organic or local, organically grown produce unless an item is on the “EWG Clean Fifteen” list; e.g. pineapples, melons, etc.

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.
