The 5 Food Rules This Beauty Guru Always Follows For Radiant Skin & A Healthy Gut
The first step to healthy, radiant skin is balancing digestive health. If you think about a garden, the soil is like our gut. It needs the right nutrient levels and bacterial balance to support the plants and for them to be strong, their leaves robust, and their flowers to blossom. For our skin to be strong and lustrous and radiant, we also need the right bacterial and nutrient balance in our gut.
Our gut is home to a large portion of our immune system. It’s where we make nutrients (that make collagen), antioxidants (that protect our skin), metabolize hormones, neutralize pathogens, and make neurotransmitters and detoxifying enzymes, so it’s little wonder that the state of the gut has a profound effect on our skin.

This Sugar-Free Juice Trend Is Making It 100X Easier To Eat Veggies On The Go
There’s little in life more satisfying than gulping down your daily serving of veggies—all those great nutrients, sans the effort of chewing or prep work. But often, those glowing green bottles aren’t as good for you as their packaging would lead you to believe. While some brands are great, many are filled with sugar—up to 10 times what is recommended to consume in a day. With typical bottled juices, all of the fiber is also removed, meaning those sugars hit your body like a soda, with the same blood-sugar-spiking roller-coaster reaction.
Luckily, a new option has hit shelves in recent months—and it’s a good one. Bottled savory juices have begun to populate shelves at health-minded grocery stores. What’s a savory juice, you ask? It’s similar to a soup (some of the brands even call themselves soups)—but instead of needing to be heated and poured into a bowl, you simply drink these straight from the bottle, just like the traditional juices you’re used to (with the same grab-and-go, toss-it-in-your-bag convenience for later ease of experience). They’re typically high pressure processed, a form of pasteurization that allows the drink to be bacteria-safe while retaining the vast majority of its nutrients and enzymes. Unlike bottled juices, these also are blended, meaning they keep all of their fiber, which helps keep you full and ensures your blood sugar stays stable for hours. READ MORE
