All Seasons Health

I thought you may enjoy some tips on how to use Spirulina. Hope this helps! :
MORNING SMOOTHIE: AN INSTANT BREAKFAST TO START YOUR DAY
Blend 1 tablespoon of Organic Spirulina Powder in 2 cups of tropical blend juice (or orange, apple or pineapple juice). Add a fresh fruit (banana, orange, peach, pear, apple, pineapple) or berries. Options: almonds or sunflower seeds or flavours such as vanilla or lime to suit your taste. For a thicker smoothie, use more fresh fruit, less juice. (Mix well in a blender. Makes 2 servings).
VEGGIE COCKTAIL: A MID AFTERNOON VEGETABLE PICK UP
Blend one tablespoon of Spirulina in 2 cups of vegetable juice (or carrot or tomato juice). For options add whole vegetables, herbs (parsley, dill weed) or spices (cayenne, horseradish) to suit your taste. (Mix well in a blender. Makes 2 servings).
CONVENIENT TABLETS AND CAPSULES
Quality Organic Spirulina Tablets and Powder are made without sugar, starch, fillers, animal parts, preservatives, stabilizers, colours, coatings or tableting agents. Made in this way, the colour of the tablet should be a uniform dark green without light coloured spots or specks. Capsules should also be free of excess fillers or additives, and vegetable capsules are available.
Many bottles provide nutritional information for a six tablet serving (3 grams), but you can take more if you like.
Tablets deliver the same benefits as powder, but digestion takes about an hour. For faster results, some people chew or dissolve the tablets in the mouth. Because it is a natural whole food, you can take tablets by themselves between meals.
If you are using Spirulina to balance your diet and help eat lighter meals, take tablets or capsules an hour before you eat. If there is a time of day when your energy runs low, take some tablets and see how your body feels one or two hours later. Both tablets and capsules are helpful with water after coffee or alcohol.

About BREEZE

Hi! My name is Briana Franco. I am a retired waitress with a mission to make a living doing what I love!

Currently, I am developing a web blog called Lucid Nutrition which will unveil intelligible provisions for a healthier lifestyle (for body, mind,heart and soul)

I also edit copy for Real Lawyer News, a premiere source of authentic law and technology news featuring audio and video from the hearts and minds of litigators and legal professionals across America.

I have a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Interdisciplinary Studies. In 2004, I participated in a 2 month extensive Archaelogical Field School uncovering a late prehistoric lithic tool workshop in South Texas. I have experience working in a group home with at risk youth in and out of foster care. 

In my spare time I make art. Using various mediums, I freely create images of internal experiences, collages, drawings, paintings, and jewelery.  I have played the violin since the age of 10 but still need alot more practice to become the at-home accomplished soloist:) I hit the gym almost daily, practice yoga, and bellydance on Saturdays.
