Nutrient dense living is much more than just consuming nutrient dense foods! 

Nutrient dense living is a bit more than just eating a nutrient dense meal, it's a trifecta of very important choices that will culminate into a powerful lifestyle that includes.....

Nutrient dense foods

• Consuming nutrient dense foods: learning what qualities to look for in these foods.
  
• Learning how to properly prepare nutrient dense foods to get the most benefits.
• Becoming involved with growing or raising some of these nutrient dense foods yourself.

Have access to nutrient dense foods 24 hours a day - everyday!

Nutrient dense food is getting more expensive by the day and some of these foods are becoming very hard to find!

One solution........................

Raising your own chickens will provide you with plenty of nutrient dense eggs and meat!  I absolutely love raising chickens for eggs.

I have had a pretty good amount of experience with many different breeds of chickens at numerous farms.

I absolutely love having access to farm fresh eggs, they are truly the best eggs to consume!

How about this solution............

Create your own organic garden, so that you can have access to nutrient dense vegetables, herbs, and fruits!

Me and the boyfriend created a good sized no-dig market garden at a farm we lived at for about a couple of years. 

Market garden 2022 with papayas.

We built about 26 beds that were mainly 50 feet long.

That's a lot of beds to keep planted at all times!

Strawberries, radishes, and carrots.

It took an incredible amount of work and time to build this organic garden, but I sure learned a lot about what to do and what not to do.

One of the most important lessons that I've learned is that you need nutrient dense soil in order to grow nutrient dense plants in your garden. 

Otherwise, you will always be in the weeds so to speak.  You'll have more pest and weed pressure because of having deficient soil.

Me in the Garden.

Market garden in the spring of 2023.  This was our last spring with the garden.  Sure miss it!

Thankfully my boyfriend had a pretty good amount of knowledge and experience with gardening.  However, it was still overwhelming!

The fun part was that we got to plant so many new and exciting varieties of plants that I never even knew existed.

Beautiful purple carrots.

Have you ever eaten purple carrots before? 

Flashy trout back lettuce.

Have you ever seen flashy trout back lettuce before?

These were some of the most beautiful carrots that we grew during the fall of 2022 and I believe we grew that flashy trout back lettuce during the winter of the previous year.

Don't worry I will share what I've learned in the past few years about organic gardening.  So stay tuned!

This one is the most dear to my heart............

Having nutrient dense raw dairy on hand, so that you can make nutrient dense homemade ice cream!

My homemade ice cream.

Finding a reputable source of raw milk is the very first thing that I do when moving or considering about moving to a new location. 

I consider raw dairy as one of the most important nutrient dense foods on the planet!

Raw milk is a big staple in our household and I think I love it too much. 

These days, I'm making more of an effort to consume raw carnivore type of meals that will help to build my muscles.

I've found that "proper nutrition is in the details" and if you don't have enough details - you won't get very far.

Sure it's easy to just say, "just eat this and totally eliminate that and everything will be just fine."

Unfortunately, real life does not work that way!  You must have a deeper understanding of how to provide the best nutrition for your body.

It is a little bit of a study and nutrient dense living will take a little time to master, but it's so Worth it!!

Nutrient dense living may be the perfect website for you if.....................

Homesteading, planting a garden, raising chickens, and growing healthy soil turn you on!  You also dream of owning your own cow, so that you can have all the raw dairy you want.

Your tired of searching high and low for raw quality dairy products.  You want to learn how to make your own butter, cream, and other nutrient dense dairy products.  Stay tuned!

Your tired of the adrenaline rush from consuming too much salt and cooked foods.  Especially, since its starting to age you!  You desire a more relaxing and healthier way to consume nutrient dense foods.

You are interested in consuming raw foods or adding more raw foods into your diet and you have already done some research on this subject.  Now your looking for more inspiration as well as more culinary ideas.

What lead me down this road....

Do you have a story that lead you to searching for better health and nutrient dense living?

My journey began when I was about 18 years old and still continues to this day now that I'm 62.  Although, I know a lot more than I did then.

My health challenges started during my early teenage years.  I'm pretty convinced that it was all the junk food that I ate as a child that resulted in lots of mercury fillings being put into my teeth.

However, cutting down on junk food and removing those toxic filling was only part of my journey back to health. 

When I got pregnant and had my daughter I knew that I would have to figure out the whole nutrition thing or it was going to be a nightmare. 

And I experimented with many different types of diets to learn the truth.

However, the pinnacle of my journey was when I decided to become a CNA or certified nurses aid for a few years.

What I saw during those few years not only disturbed me, but made me even more determined to learn the "real" truth about nutrition.

I decided that I never wanted to end up sick and trapped like what I had witnessed which is what lead me to discovering what the most nutrient dense foods actually were on this planet for me and my daughter.

Choose quality over quantity!

In my opinion, look for quality over quantity when it comes to your food every time! 

Example: buying meat that comes from cows grazing on pastures all day instead of factory farmed cows that eat toxic feed.

You have to look beyond, "a great sales price" or "buying in bulk" these days.  What's the point of eating a lot of meat or anything else that wasn't raised or grown correctly?

Nutrient dense foods will supply the nutrients that your body craves and needs without adding unnecessary toxins that your body will have to get rid of by the way. 

Intermittent fasting anyone?

I do believe that is why so many people are into fasting these days.

It's probably because their bodies need a break from all of the toxins and that includes the cooked food toxins!

Have you ever just stuffed your face silly, but your still not satisfied?

It's usually because the quality of the food that you are consuming isn't supplying the necessary nutrients to your body or it could be that your not properly digesting your food - or both.

Another reason could be that your not really feeding your body what it  truly needs and sometimes your cravings will tell you what your body is lacking.

Did you know there is a big difference between feeding the cells of your body and eating till you feel full?

I'll do my best to teach you what I know, so that you can be more in charge of your cravings and experience nutrient dense living!
