Hello and thanks for stopping by. My name is Jacki Smith and I am here to help everyone to be their happiest, healthiest and best self. I have been working in health and nutrition for 30 years so I have lots of hints and tips to share. My daughter is legally blind from a corneal infection so I am privileged to be living with her family helping to transport her and my two precious grandbabies around. Since my daughter home schools, we go on lots of adventures hiking, festivals and the like, so I will share our adventures with you as well and encourage getting out and being active whenever possible. My family and I follow a mostly vegetarian diet by choice, but I give tips on all types of diets, foods, meal plans and even juicing. I also will cover topics like detoxing and cleanses, and how to fill voids in the diet by using nutritional supplements. And for those who want to work from home look for articles on direct sales and picking the right company to partner with. I will also
Today I wanted to share some tips on water and staying hydrated. Since our bodies are made up of water one of the best things we can do is to drink enough water each day to keep our bodies hydrated. A good equation for this is to take your weight and cut the amount in half and drink that many ounces of clean water, not tap, each day. 1 oz for every 2 lbs of body weight. Now many of my clients have said they do not like the taste of water. So infused water and even detox water are a good solution. There are lots of ingredients and combinations that you can use including fruits such as apples, lemons, grapefruits, and berries. Adding cucumbers, ginger, even apple cider vinegar can add additional benefits to detox the body flushing toxins out and improving overall health. I have included a couple recipes I like below as well as links back to their website for more recipes and information. If you have a favorite recipe or combination let me know in the comments below.
