Top Ten Health Boosting Smoothie Add Ins
Superfoods seem to be all the rage. They seem to be in every recipe on Pinterest. (Are we friends over there? Let’s be!) It seems like there’s a new superfood product on the shelf every time I shop.

RNL Cleanse
The body is a sacred temple, the house of your spirit and life energy. If our physical body not up to speed, we’re more likely to be tired, holding onto extra weight and not be living to our full potential. Daily life can feel like a chore because we just don’t feel good and because our body systems are full of junk or blocked. Just as we take our cars to the shop to clean the engine and get a tune-up, so do our bodies need to be cleaned and tuned-up. Continue reading “RNL Cleanse”
