    Are you eating healthy on the go?

    We often eat on the go during the work week because we are crunched for time. A lot of times eating at a fast food restaurant is also driven by financial convenience. In this episode, we want to lay out all of the convenient fast food establishments in your area and talk about which ones to stay away from and which ones are okay, as well as which options are healthiest at these select establishments. If you don’t have these places accessible to you during the work day, we are also going to give you practical and easy food ideas to grab on the go daily that are healthy.

    What Fuels You: coffee, energy drinks, supplements?

    Today we skim the surface on how we get our energy in our day to day lives. Obviously, getting energy the “natural” way is always the way to go, but that isn’t always practical, convenient, or realistic. With countless caffeine options to choose from, we share the truth about what to stay away from completely and what can be a healthier and more effective solution for daily use. We hope you enjoy it. Stay energized!

    The Power of Water

    We all know that we should be getting plenty of water each day, but we may not know why its so important and even if we do, we don’t know how much water is enough and when the best time to drink water is. Furthermore, is the type of water we are drinking more harmful than good? Today we tackle all of these questions and more, while providing practical solutions for you to start living healthier today in order to live a longer life. In summary it is important to track how much water you drink and its source. Today our sources of fresh water are contaminated and contain organic and inorganic chemicals that can be extremely harmful at certain levels but even trace levels can bioaccumulate and lead to negative side affects. We suggest avoiding bottled water, determining contaminants in your tap water, and selecting a filter that specifically treats those contaminates.   A great list of water filters can be found here: https://www.consumerreports.org/cro/water-filters.htm While we tried to summarize, there is so much to learn about water and we implore you as always to do your own due diligence. Some of our favorite sources of water information are from Heal Thyself, Hydrate, and Darin Olien podcasts.

    Modern Sustainability

    This podcast defines sustainability. The human race has impacted the earth in a not so positive way and the results are becoming more evident. When we consider modern sustainability we have to consider humans as part of the biome. We must include the health of environment, social progress, and economic development. A difficult trinity to manage that may require systematic change. First we discuss some of our unsustainable practices. Then we discuss some things the induvial can do to reduce there impact on the planet and make positive change.  1. You should try to reduce your pollution as much as possible; weather that is municipal, chemical, or electrical waste. Reduction is the most important of the RRRs you heard in grade school.  2. Be a smart consumer. We get constant advertisements that tell us we are consumers. We make constant purchases that are not necessary and contribute waste. We buy from companies that do not produce sustainable products. We can use our money to make companies change their business model to be better for the environment. 3. Be an advocate. Talk about the facts of what unsustainable practices do to the environment and how it ultimately impacts people. Suggest sustainable practices at work, to friends, and to groups.
