I know this is kind of crazy but I have a program available for 10 dollars!  Okay maybe really crazy!

So let me explain the loss of my senses ;)

I wanted to have a program for those who were afraid of the word "detox" (hence why it is called the clean eating challenge).  I wanted it to be short enough to feel manageable but long enough to make an actual difference.  I wanted it to be very simple and super easy to follow but with all the good stuff from my regular programs. Kind of a beginners program but I am offering it to all my people because it is that good! 

The extra crazy in all this is that I want you to have the extra support of having a friend do it with you.  So this is a BOGO deal.  All that is required after you sign up is that you send me your friends e-mail so I can send them the challenge too.

I am running this challenge for two different weeks.  The first week is a pre-Halloween strike in preparation for the sugar holiday!  I will have a forum open from the 21st till the end of both challenges which will be the 12th.  The first week is October 24th-October 28th, the second week is after Halloween as a recovery for the sugar addicted (hehe), November 7th- November 11th.  The challenge will be yours forever of course, so you can do it whenever you would like as many times as you like.  That is just when I will have the forum open and be supporting you.

I love this challenge and I hope you will too!

I also wanted to let you know I am going to start a weekly food post on my Facebook business page.  I will pick a food, be it vegetable or fruit and tell you why it's awesome and how and why it will serve you in your journey to health.  My FB business page is @juliesweberbiz if you want to check that out.

Have a great week and please if there is anything you want to know more about, ask me in the comments or e-mail me at julie@ juliesweber.com and I will probably blog about it ;)

PS.  Oh and click here to check out the Challenge.

All fresh fruits and vegetables contain magical powers when it comes to shiny hair, clear skin, and strong nails. I mean come on, we all know Mother Nature is amazing!!  However, the ones I’ve chosen below are perhaps not as well known for their powerful beauty benefits. They may not all be for you but why not try and include one or more of these foods into your diet?   A good choice if you want to look your best plus and it's a bit cheaper than botox or other unnatural remedies.  Bonus... the only side side affect is to  make you feel great!

1. Red Peppers. All red and orange colored foods contain beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant and is the precursor to retinol (vitamin A). We need that for healthy skin our immune system and good eye health and vision.  Also Red peppers are particularly beautifying due to vitamins A and C can help prevent cell damage that leads to premature aging, and they can also reduce inflammation, which can cause a puffy-looking face. 
2. Spinach. All leafy greens are actually very powerful in terms of being a beauty food because of the chlorophyll they contain.  Spinach is especially amazing because it also contains vitamins E, C and A which are all healthy for your skin.  There are also loads of other phytochemicals in spinach that help build blood that is super clean and which will show through the glow of your skin.
3. Turmeric. This yellow-colored, Indian spice has a load of powerful antioxidant qualities. Turmeric assists in protecting our cells from free radical damage which can cause premature aging.  It also contributes towards cleaning up metabolic waste in our systems and is great as a liver flusher to get rid of any poisons and chemicals which are stored there.
4. Pumpkin Seeds. Wow, these really are powerful. What don’t pumpkin seeds have in them?! The humble pumpkin seed contains high levels of zinc, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and vitamins B, C, and E. Pumpkin seeds are also a great source of amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids, all essential for healthy cell maintenance. Make a handful of pumpkin seeds a regular part of your diet, and you will definitely notice a change in your appearance.
5. Parsley. Next time your plate is garnished with parsley, don’t push it aside. This pretty little herb is powerful when it comes to anti-aging, as well as purifying and cleansing the body. It contains vitamins A and C as well as anti-oxidizing flavonoids that protect our cells from free radical damage. Parsley also helps to purify the blood, kill bacteria, aid digestion, and cleanse toxins from the liver.

 
The best thing is that all these foods are so easy to incorporate into your diet!!

Add turmeric to juice, or make a yummy tea.  If you haven't tried it as a tea it is so simple!  Just warm up two cups of oat milk (or whatever milk you like) about a teaspoon of turmeric, a few dashes of cinnamon and your choice of sweetener (I use stevia)...pure deliciousness!!  

Then combine the other foods with some other fixings to make a great, beautifying salad. Who said that beauty was hard to keep?

Thanks for reading!
