Eating organic, juicing, working out & fun activities to help improve your quality of life.
Fitness, eating healthy and living a healthy lifestyle have always been a big part of my life. People ask me what I eat all the time and how I work out, so I decided to dedicate this page to organic diet tips and work out tricks that I incorporate into my daily living. Although I am not a certified personal trainer or nutritionist, I have been active my whole life and only have about 8% BODY FAT in my mid-thirties. Not bad! I’m almost never sick and always feeling strong, healthy, sharp and super energetic. I attribute it completely to diet, exercise and meditation. To elaborate further, I don’t lift weights, I don’t eat anything with preservatives, pesticides, trans fats, processed foods or artificial ingredients and I try to keep my stress levels down. Of course I go out sometimes or eat with friends and I don’t fuss or bother to think about it. DIET = what you put in your body on a regular basis. All my exercise is calisthenics, martial arts, chi gong, walking, stretching and resistance bands. I go the park almost daily to walk, do push ups, pull ups, dips, rows, stretch and take deep breaths. If I’m not feeling well, I go see Dr. George Xavier Love in Boca Raton, who practices traditional Chinese medicine like Acupuncture, Massage & Herbs. Last things I want to do is expose myself to a Doctors office, hospital or chemical pills.
Below you will find my recent blog postings regarding my organic diet and exercise routines. Feel free to dig through the archives or subscribe for regular health tips. If you see something you like, please SHARE IT.

Wild Alaskan salmon, corn, salad, avocado, flat bread, lemon and Chardonnay.
You should try to avoid Atlantic Salmon because they come from dirty fish farms. Fishing wild salmon is illegal in the Atlantic because of population reserves being so low.

Stuffed red peppers with couscous, chicken, garlic, onions, celery and cilantro. I think we need a food processor for faster chopping.
