I promised to offer more information on the amazing benefits of Food Combining in my last nutrition post, The Secrets to Detoxing. Proper Food Combining is truly the missing cornerstone to healthy eating if we're interested in achieving and maintaining a beautiful & healthy body and mind for life. Entire books have been written upon these subjects so I must admit, attempting to write blog posts on these issues can feel rather daunting! However, I suppose that is the point/benefit, condensing everything into the most important points so that you can save yourself the effort of sifting through reams of information and just get to work applying these anti-aging, beautifying and energy enhancing secrets! Proper Food Combining (1, 2,3) enables our bodies to process food efficiently and more effectively absorb the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. While the method is easy to follow, it's certainly a far departure from the Standard American Diet (SAD), however after just two weeks following the guidelines in the chart below, our general emotional outlook and appearance improves as toxins are cleared out of our system faster. Cravings are eliminated- making it incredibly easy to stick to - while the immediate energy surge, effortless toning and melting away of excess body fat and glowing skin certainly serve to reinforce any ideas of going back to old habits! I've got to admit, I am continually shocked to learn the amazing wisdom available when I challenge what I find unacceptable - in this case the gut feeling that staying lean and feeling good shouldn't be as hard as it used to be for me: The necessary workout regimen, constant battle against cravings, subpar energy levels (yes the list goes on and on with everything else you can think of!) ...all while following the advice of the most respected doctors and best-selling authors! Not that I wasn't seeing major improvements along my journey - I was! However, until now, it just all seemed a little too effortful, requiring a level of will-power that just wasn't sustainable. Here is where...

I’ve been reading blogs for years. And just like you I go through phases. Like three years ago when I went back to the beginning and read every one of Pioneer Woman’s posts. I did the same thing with June’s first blog, Bye Bye Buy {and if you are wondering, I happened to find one of my all time favorite posts over there–Sherpas!} Lately, I’ve been all about Bento blogs. Then there are some blogs that I’ve never been obsessed with but have always been there for me. They have encouraged me to think about something a little differently and helped me make small and big changes in my life. Small Notebook is one of those faithful blogs. If you’ve never been there, do yourself a favor and get to know Rachel. It’s tempting to link to some of my favorite posts but really, it’s all worth reading. Just go there, close your eyes, move your mouse around and click. You won’t be disappointed.
