The Best Health Decision I EVER Made
My bountiful garden, a heart-warming project for me
Ten & a half years ago, I lost my mom to the ever-increasing cancer battle that way too many people are familiar with. She had a super rare form of this dis/ease and witnessing her pain and body falling apart – literally dying as the days passed – had a deeply profound effect on me. It would anyone, and I know I’m not the only one with this story – but I am one of the rare birds who consciously spins things like this to my favor. Read more
What’s the Healthiest Supplement Powder for Dogs?
A homemade superfood powder blend is the ultimate gift of health you can give your dog. It’s easy to make, takes just a few minutes, and offers proven long-lasting benefits! As you’ve seen, there are other options available, such as supplements you get from the pet store or grocery store, but for my own health and for my animals health, I choose the very best I can find or have access to. Plus, when it’s so easy and cost-effective, why not do all that you can?
Java - my sweet, very active dog
There are dozens of supplements I see for animals and their ingredients are not impressive. Personally, I prefer to give my dog everything I can, within reason, to ensure he stays lean and muscular, ultra healthy, and real shiny. He’s a handsome one alright, and he’s got great genes (Pharaoh/Shepherd mix), but the food he eats and powders he takes activate the best expression of his genes possible.
I SAVE TONS OF MONEY by giving this homemade powder to my sweet doggie, Java. No vet bills, no medications, no toxic preventative creams or care. I use food as medicine and medicine as his food (along with his BARF diet, mimicking what he would eat in the wild) to keep him in such phenomenal shape and health. He has the same energy he did when he was just several weeks old and constantly get comments that he looks much younger than he does (he’s 5 1/2) 
Here’s an article on the raw organic superfood diet I feed both JavaDog and my EmmyCat if you haven’t read it yet.
POWDERED VITALITY for dogs
Vitality Blend Prior to Stirring Together
Vitamineral Green* (green superfood multi-vitamin/mineral)
Vitamineral Earth* (tonic herbs, detox, immunity, stress)
Elixir of the Lake (Wild Blue Green Algae)* (high protein/amino acids, minerals)
Zeolite Powder* (removes heavy metals, pesticides & poisons)
Astragulus Root Powder (stay looking & feeling young, energy)
Plant-Based MSM Powder (joints, hips, skin, hair, coat, shine)
Amla Berry Powder (high vitamin C for strong immunity)
DIRECTIONS: The base of this formulae is Vitamineral Green; I add unmeasured spoonfuls of the other powders and mix all together, and package in an old Elixir of the Lake dark glass bottle for storing on the counter. Play around with the amounts, just use the greens as the foundation and top it with the rest. I give 1 tablespoon to my 75 lb dog daily.
There is a MOUND of Vitamineral Green in the photo to the right, underneath all the other powders. You can see some of it in the upper left.
The ingredients marked with a * means you can get these through HealthForce Nutritionals, a high vibe company offering extremely bio-compatible organic raw and vegan products for us all to stay young and healthy.
HealthForce offers a product specifically for animals called Green Mush, yet it is VERY similar to Vitamineral Green (VMG) and VMG is much more cost-effective, especially if you plan on maintaining this supplemental regimen. Green Mush has CoQ10 added and is formulated to taste a bit better, but I can tell you that dogs LOVE Vitamineral Green and if your dogs needs the CoQ10 then just buy it and add it to the powder blend (or get the Mush).
You can get the astragulus powder and amla berry powder from Mountain Rose Herbs and the only plant-based MSM on the market at Omica Organics. You can use any high vitamin C powder, I’ve just personally found amla berry or camu camu to be among the easiest to get without fillers.
These products and ingredients are typically used for humans, yet are proven safe and are encouraged for dogs. They need the nutrition to keep them strong and vital! Be a really good doggie mama and take the best care of your furry children. ♥
Here’s a great article I recommend reading on The Horrors Of Commercial Pet Food.

Bee Pollen: The Queen Strategy for Weight Loss & Stress Management
Most people want a quick fix to dropping the excess baggage they somehow started carrying around in their belly, butt and thighs. Amazingly, bee pollen helps you maintain the weight you want to be, and seriously boosts your metabolism – leading to looser pants and a slimmer summer body. Bee pollen contains lecithin, which helps to dissolve and flush your fat cells resulting in lower numbers on the scale. Nice, huh?

Medicinal Mushroom Next-Level Quinoa
For those of you who eat some warm cooked food throughout the fall and winter (or any time of year), you will love this recipe! When you are applying heat to anything, be mindful – cook only with the Saladmaster pots and pans that will not leach metal into your food. The importance of this cannot be overstated. Applying heat and lightly cooking is fine and preferred by many; allow yourself to do so in the most health-conscious way available.
I am not a direct seller of Saladmaster, but you can find one near you via their ‘contact us’ page.
This recipe offers your body extremely tonifying, nutritive, and grounding support to encourage a sense of balance from within.
Medicinal Mushroom Quinoa
Medicinal Mushroom Next-Level Quinoa
1 cup quinoa (soaked, rinsed, sprouted)
1.5 cups spring water
1/2 teaspoon Chaga extract powder
1/2 teaspoon Reishi extract powder
1/2 teaspoon Lion’s Mane extract powder
1/2 -1 teaspoon of Vitamineral Earth
2-3 pinches sea salt
Add a strip of kombu to the cooking water to infuse your quinoa with magic minerals.
Bring the ingredients listed above to a rolling boil. Turn the heat down immediately to the lowest setting and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Peek to check that most of the water has been absorbed and if not, heat for another minute. If so, turn the heat off and let sit for 3-10 minutes.
Preparing the the quinoa this way will be it a real distinct taste. You may want to first make the recipe with just salt and Earth in the cooking water, and add the mushrooms powders in AFTER you’ve cooked it.
Fluff with fork and add:
drizzle of Coconut Secret’s Coconut Aminos (soy-free seasoning sauce)
swirl of extra virgin olive oil
* Add only as much mushrooms powders as your palate will enjoy. If you’ve added too much for your liking, add more plain quinoa to dilute it down.
* Add another shake of Vitamineral Earth if you want to feel extra grounded and receive deeper nourishment. Add Earth to your liking and taste – start small and work up. Snip some dulse in the your dish for even more metabolism-boosting minerals.
* Layer on fresh, local, in-season vegetables such as chopped leafy greens (love kale in this recipe!) and herbs (love parsley), bell peppers, cucumbers, onion, and garlic. Adding a few slices of avocado will really take this one to the next level of belly satisfaction.
Follow this recipe as I’ve described it OR follow the basic recipe and layer on more of the optional suggestions as you want and have available to you. The picture above is the untra-grounding basic recipe without any veggies added in yet.
To sprout, put the quinoa in a large mason jar with enough water to cover it and soak for several hours, then turn upside down and allow excess water to drain. Keep the jar upside down and rinse by adding water in again, 2 times per day, and drain. I take between 2 hours and 1 full day to do this, just depending. No official rules on this for me.
Cozy up on the couch wrapped in blankets next to a wood-burning stove and serve warm in a beautiful ceramic bowl.
There are 2 ways to cook any grain dish: 1) in a metal or aluminum pot with tap or filtered water and without any Superfood amendments (while possibly overheating/cooking), or 2) in a Saladmaster pot with spring water and with tonic herbs, medicinal mushrooms, and Superfoods (while heating for the shortest time needed). Recognize the difference?
My favorite source for the mushroom mycelium powders is from Host Defense.
You can order them by the capsule and open them up to get the measurements you want.
You can buy the Vitamineral Earth from HealthForce:

Creating a Chocolate-y Drink WITHOUT Using Chocolate
If you do not want the potential stimulation or at times jolting effect of cacao, I can relate and understand. If you want the indulgent flavor without any perceived detrimental effects, then you can have exactly that.
In a whiff of inspiration to consume more Maca to feel super grounded and resilient to stress and a busy life + a desire to bump up the antioxidants without consuming the relatively limited choices of higher sugar fresh fruits (which have been less than ideal quality this year in Marin County due to the weather), I created this Elixir. I suggest there are limited choices because each year the fresh fruits are always the same and I’m getting somewhat bored with them. Fruits of the Earth has the common + exotic ones, and that’s what I want right now.
I usually just measure the 2 T of Vitamineral Green to make sure I get it in there and then do 1 regular spoonful of MacaForce and 1 spoonful of Fruits of the Earth, yet for this recipe I went with exact measurements to bring you a guaranteed strong chocolate flavored drink. To get more chocolate flavor, add more Dark Mint MacaForce and Fruits of the Earth.
I never would have thought to use Fruits of the Earth to make a drink have more of a chocolate flavor, yet every single time I demo it for HealthForce, customers tell me it tastes like chocolate (and there’s nothing in there that even resembles chocolate!). Creativity in the kitchen and a need to back off my cacao addiction, brought this sweet treat to you.
If you get any PMS symptoms, this is your remedy. This was a successful experiment and it’s too good to keep to myself. Before and during your moon cycle, have 1-3 of these Dark Green Chocolate-y Mint Elixirs per day. Your man will notice 
Dark Green Chocolate-y Mint Elixir
3-4 cups spring water
2 T Vitamineral Green (HealthForce)
1 T Dark Mint MacaForce (HealthForce)
1 T Fruits of the Earth (HealthForce)
1 tsp vanilla bean powder
sprinkling of organic white stevia extract powder (NOW brand)
3-4 ice cubes, made with spring water
Blend on high. Let elixir settle for 1-3 mins. Drink chilled and relish your good mood and nostalgic chocolate flavor.
P.S. This Dark Green Chocolate-y Mint Elixir will not be in my upcoming eBook, Superfood Beauty Elixirs. The launch of this labor of love eBook will be before the end of this month! (yippee!!)
Chocolate Caramel Fudge for Immunity
This recipe needs no introduction. Just make it even if you don’t have all the ingredients (don’t let ANYTHING stop you from starting something new!), and then… devour them. Even if you have just half the ingredients, as long as you have the first FIVE, that’s fine! You can make this any way you want; double up on ingredients you DO have so you reach the total quantity of teaspoons of powders in the recipe.
Chocolate Caramel Fudge
1/3 cup raw cashew butter
1/4 cup softened coconut oil
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon local, raw, organic honey
1 T raw cacao butter
2 T raw cacao powder
1 tsp each: Chaga, Reishi, Lion’s Mane mushroom powders
1 tsp Vitamineral Green
1 tsp blue green algae (Elixir of the Lake)
1 tsp shilajit powder
1 tsp dark mint MacaForce
1 tsp mucuna powder
1 tsp vitamin E tocotrienols
1 tsp mesquite powder
1 tsp lucuma powder
3/4 tsp vanilla bean powder
1 small handful goji berries
If you don’t eat honey or want to use it, use 1/4 cup clear agave. Do whatever works for you.
Put all ingredients except your sweetener (honey, agave) in a food processor. Process. There may be a bit of oil that separates IF you include the sweetener in this first mixin’ – and if so, it’s okay – no big deal. If you do want to avoid this, just mix all ingredients together and STIR IN the sweetener slowly (in a separate bowl) after everything else has mixed well together in the processor.
Scoop little non-uniform chunks into silicon ice cube trays and freeze until frozen. Eat chilled – you may want to soften for just a couple minutes before eating for the PERFECT texture, ever!
Don’t put them back in the freezer; take out a few so you don’t do the crazy ‘get the fudge out of the freezer!’ dance (taking them out, popping out 1 piece, putting the tray back in in the freezer, craving more, taking them back out and eating another, putting it back in thinking you’re not going to eat anymore… then taking them back out… =)
You can get Vitamineral Green, Elixir of the Lake and MacaForce from HealthForce Nutritionals.
