Keeping healthy


My chiroprator loaded me down with exercises to do and I'm trying to keep up with them.  None take very long, and none are difficult to do, but it's a matter of just getting down to it.

I had finally gotten the hang of juicing to my liking before I left Sac, and now I miss it.  With that in mind I drove to a natural food store that I knew carries unpasteurized juice, and bought 3 bottles (16 oz ea).  Two are kombucha green juice that contain a few other healthy ingredients.  I had no idea what kombucha is, and didn't know whether I would like it or not.  I opened one of the bottles today and the first drink was a total shock!  It seemed extremely tangy but also tasted extremely good and refreshing.  Each sip of it got tastier and the tang was still there although a bit softened.  I love the stuff!

Kombucha refers to a variety of "fermented, lightly effervescent sweetened black or green tea drink".  I sure felt a surge of energy and good health after each sip of that stuff.  I bought 2 kombucha multi-green drinks,  and 1 kombucha pomegranate ginger, which has an amber color.  Both are dated and the product doesn't have much of a shelf life, so I will probably visit the store every 3 or 4 days.  It is a fairly large store with loads of good things, but I tried to keep from shopping right now and just got the juice.

So I've shopped for and drank a healthy drink, and done quite a few exercises as well as walked on the treadmill for about 25 minutes.  I think I'll treat myself to a beer this evening!  (Beer is good for you, especially a golden ale or lager).




- Staying Healthy
After walking at the gym this morning, I came home and decided to do some juicing.  I've been out of it for several days, and believe it or not I really crave it.  But what a mess it makes.  I always clean everything up immediately...

- Pretty Quiet Here
I enjoyed reading all the comments about making Kombucha.  I am planning to get back to juicing when I return to CA, and don't know if I can handle two operations such as these. I went to Nature's Pantry this morning to buy some more Kombucha,...

- Question Answered
I thought I'd write a short post to answer a question posed by Linda about what veggies and fruits I use for juicing.  The main two are carrots and kale.  I also use squash (summer stuff, such as zucchini) as it has lots of juice. ...

- Enough Of This!
I had my post op visit yesterday and hit a whopping 105.2 on the scale!  I've had enough of this craziness and have made up my mind I'm going to get well, gain weight, and get back to living again, as soon as I can manage it all. The visit...
