Quote of the episode:
"From my professional experience in working with clients, most people are so focused on consuming protein, they eat too much protein and lack other macronutrients in their diet. And that’s a major downhill domino effect from there. 

What your body needs will not be the same as what Stacy at the gym needs. And you don’t need to listen to Instagram influencers either. Protein isn’t the end all be all. It’s just not." -Lauren Venosta

Quote of the episode:
"You are the only one responsible for how you feel and how you show up for yourself. No one can hold you back! Managing your time and prioritizing your needs is a choice you can make. You just need to become self-aware of your habits, patterns, self-talk, and how you’re spending your day so you can adjust as needed." -Lauren Venosta

In this episode I'm sharing 4 morning beverages and corresponding recipes that will support different aspects of your heath including digestion, detoxification, energy, and hormonal health. It's a quick episode with tons of actionable value. 

4 Morning Beverages:

1. Digestive Fire: 16 oz warm water, juice of ½ lemon, 2 Tbsp. raw apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp. raw honey, and ½ tsp. ground cinnamon

2. Detox Power: 16 oz warm water, juice of ½ lemon, and ½ tsp. turmeric paste.

Turmeric paste recipe: 

• 1 ¼ cups water
• ½ cup ground turmeric
• ⅓ cup coconut oil 
• 1 tsp. ground black pepper
• 1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Add water and turmeric to a small pot, whisk together and heat on low until the mixture  turns into a paste. Add the coconut oil, black pepper, and cinnamon. Mix well and store in the  refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. 

 3. Mineral Infusion: 16 oz warm water, juice of ½ lemon, ¼ tsp. Himalayan pink salt OR ¼ tsp. trace mineral drops and the last ingredient is ground or fresh ginger, basically as much as you can tolerate. If you need to add raw honey to this one, you can definitely do so.

4. Energy Elixir: 16 oz water, juice of ½ lemon, splash of orange juice, and 20 drops of liquid chlorophyll. If you have never used liquid chlorophyll before, start with 12 drops and work your way up to 20.

Quote of the episode:
"Think of these drinks as a building block. It really sets the tone for your day. Morning is the optimal time to continue the cleansing and detoxing from the night, as that’s what your body does during sleep, so when you wake up and drink one of these beverages, you’re supporting your body’s natural capabilities."  -Lauren Venosta
