Smoothie Maker That Works

Written by on

I went through five different smoothie/blender machines last fall to find one that finally works.

The problem was always either that they were not powerful enough, or if they were powerful, they would cause a massive foam-up of the smoothie I was trying to make.

It is WAY frustrating, I suspect many of you know what I’m talking about.  We can add a coconut oil to help reduce foam, but it still doesn’t work as well as just using a machine that creates the end product that you want.

AND…it’s SUPER-EASY to CLEAN.  Literally about 15 seconds rinse-out and you’re done, with a minute scrub down of the blade section and container section every few days..

(Every juicer I’ve used takes about five minutes to clean)

I use the Ninja every day.  It handles completely frozen fruits for me weekend fruit-only smoothies, which I’ll cover in my extended program (it’s just apple, strawberry, a little stevia, almond milk and the protein powder found at the “Raw Whey Protein” link at the bottom of this page).

I think juicing has its applications, but I always prefer smoothing. 

I drink my smoothies very slowly, kinda “chew” them.  A daily smoothie for me consists of greens and protein, and I use the minimal frozen fruit to both cool it down in the blending, as well as to sweeten the greens which would be a bit intense without the fruit.  I also use the new juice product I’m introducing to everyone as the main sweetener, a mere two ounces worth mixed into the blend (I never blend in this juice due to it being a final product as is).  This new juice is taken in only small amounts, and has a supplement added to it that literally is rebuilding people’s bodies.  One aspect of this is even FDA approved, it’s that well proven.  Not that I give much of a crap most of the time what the FDA has to say about much of anything. 😉

I found the lowest price at Amazon for this blender I could find, feel free to search for a lower price if you can find it.   A great, powerful smoothie maker that actually does what we all want them to do!!!

Statin Therapy Creates Muscle Damage

Written by on

I have long tried to deter family members from taking statins, or at least more thoroughly researching the alternatives such as diet, supplement and exercise as options.  At the very least, coq10 or ubiquinol should be supplemented at all times during statin drug use due to mitochondrial damage that I believe has been substantiated sufficiently enough for it to be a serious concern.

One alternative doctor on the west coast, a gentleman in his late 70’s now, insists that statin drugs are nothing short of a “statin scam,” stating that lowering cholesterol in those patients who are older adversely affects their body’s ability to make hormones, and that they should be prescribed only about one-tenth as often as they are.

Now there’s even more reason to steer clear of them, especially for those folks participating in my FLFL program trying to lose fat and weight.

A doctor in South Africa reported on an athlete he was studying who sustained statin-induced muscle damage, outright muscle cell destruction.  He, Dr. Stuart Semple, believes that as many as 75% of weight training athletes may be susceptible to muscle damage if they are using statin drugs.

Keep in mind that the heart is a muscle as well, further complicating the issue.

Prescription drugs had the statistic a few years ago as being the fourth leading cause of death in the United States.

Let me restate exactly how this statistic read:

“PROPERLY PRESCRIBED drugs are the fourth leading cause of death in the United States.”

Not IMproperly prescribed…

PROPERLY prescribed.

With a statistic like this, it seems clear that people in America are simply in a willing game of Russian Roulette.  Willing to PAY for it as well, not only with their money, but potentially with their lives.

And people think *I* am weird…
