Vitamin B3 during pregnancy

Vitamin B3 during pregnancy

By Nadia Moredo, L.Ac.

Many of you have probably seen the recent news that vitamin B3, also known as niacin, can help prevent birth defects and pregnancy loss. More research is needed before practitioners start recommending an increased dose of B3, and as with any vitamin or mineral, consuming it in its whole food state often results in better absorption. B3 is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning that excess niacin leaves the body through urination and needs to be replenished regularly. Here are the top foods that you can include in your diet to make sure you are getting enough B3. Read more…

The Perfect Winter Breakfast: The Gingerbread Smoothie

The Perfect Winter Breakfast: The Gingerbread Smoothie

By Gabriela Pierre, L.Ac.

I am a huge fan of healthy, homemade smoothies in the morning. They are nutrient-dense and easy to make then take on-the-go. But, my appetite for them precipitously declines during the wintery months. The last thing I crave is something cold when it’s cold outside.

The Placebo Effect

By Gabriela Pierre, L.Ac.

How to Make Delicious, Nutrient-Dense Smoothies

Vegetables to Use In Smoothies

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Having a smoothie for breakfast can be one of the healthiest habits you develop, if it consists of the right ingredients. Most mornings my breakfast consists of about 2 pint glasses worth of blended vegetables, fruit, seeds, herbs, grass-fed whey protein and various superfoods. It only takes 3 to 5 minutes to make, assuming all of the ingredients are handy. Read more…

Green Juice Recipe

Green Juice Recipe

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Warm, summer days are the perfect time of year to enjoy fresh juice. And juice that you make yourself or with loved ones is by far the best. Nothing compares to farm fresh produce, straight from juicer to mouth. Once you’ve taken a look at my juicing guidelines, give this recipe a try. It’s by far my favorite. Read more…
