I LOVE SMOOTHIES!!

Since we turned vegan, Greg and I have fallen in love with smoothies! Ours are a bit different, however. They're protein smoothies!!

We use chocolate almond milk and Nutiva hemp powder for our smoothies. I've actually been known to make a hemp milkshake with the chocolate almond milk. It's makes an excellent snack, and since it's protein, it keeps hunger at bay for a couple of hours.

Vitamin C: What Your Doctor Won't Tell You

I recently had a conversation on Twitter with a blogger friend who happened to have a cold. Like most people, this person thought that taking too much vitamin C could be harmful rather than beneficial.

I thought the same thing until recently.

A few months ago, I read the book "Vitamin C: The Real Story" by Steve Hickey, PhD. and Andrew Saul, PhD. This book taught me so much about this miracle vitamin.
