They spend far an excessive amount of on the “why” as an alternative of the “how” and this e-book is the right mixture of each. It’s additionally very conversationally written, so whereas it contains a number of science-backed information and peer-reviewed research, it’s a straightforward learn.

Notes I took on my cellphone whereas studying:

– Make sprouts. (You’ll be able to see extra about this here)

– Huge salads with numerous uncooked veggies – give attention to kale and broccoli

– Smoothies with assorted elements

– Water with a pinch of Himalayan sea salt, cayenne, and lemon within the am

– Meals with excessive chlorophyll content material: chard, kale, spirulina, chlorella

– Make train sporadic and enjoyable; really problem your self

– Discover a higher water supply. We’ve got reverse osmosis right here on the home, nevertheless it hasn’t been serviced for the reason that first time we lived right here. So we haven’t been utilizing it. I’ve been filling the massive water jugs from Entire Meals. Although I’m looking for a greater choice (glass bottles, an incredible filter like Berkey, or perhaps a supply service). In case you have any concepts, please let me know!

As a non-vegan who loves vegan meals, I’m enthusiastic about attempting a number of the new recipes in Superlife. They’re all vibrantly coloured and full of veggies.
