So far, the best find of the day is The Farmer's Cow milk and eggs. The Farmer's Cow is a local group that is "committed to providing fresh, local products to Connecticut and surrounding areas free of artificial growth hormones (rBST) or unneeded pesticides and chemicals." This is beneficial for many reasons. I love the fact that I am able to support local farms while fulfilling one aspect of the diet. In addition to the milk I purchased (eggs weren't on the list this week), I picked up some spices. The Maker's Diet
Cilantro is one of those herbs that I absolutely love but just never had any in my spice rack. It is an excellent addition to salsa and guacamole. Marjoram is one that I am not too familiar with, so I will be researching some good recipes that use it. As for salt, I am not a big user of a salt shaker. I have had the same container of table salt for more than 10 years. Timing is everything, though, as it is now empty! Rather than replace it with the same thing, I figured it was as good a time as any to switch to sea salt.
Today, I decided to do a partial fast. Doing a regular partial fast is recommended by Jordan Rubin. He states: “Fasting is the high-powered spiritual tool for breakthrough in body, mind, and spirit. The average person feels much better and lives healthier by observing a one-day partial cleansing fast each week.”
As I wasn't going to be doing a lot of eating, I also opted to to take a day off from exercise. Both decisions were somewhat influenced by other factors, but it was a logical decision.
Finally, one product that I am strongly considering adding to my routine is Primal Defense Ultra. This product contains HSOs (homeostatic soil organisms) like Jordan Rubin used on his quest for health. I am not yet sure if I will, but if it can help me I would like to try it.
