Bragg's

There are quite a few things that I use a lot. I like flavor in my food. I loathe eating things that are bland.

For instance, I have a jar of crushed red peppers in my desk that my office mate and I use on everything. I buy the big jar from Costco and refill it from that . . . I love spicy food. I think at last count we have around 8 jars of hot sauce in our refrigerator. I'm that girl.

I discovered the Bragg products last year when I was attempting to go Gluten Free.  I purchased some of the Nutritional Yeast Seasoning and decided to try it. I put it on pizza, popcorn and salads. To me, it tastes a lot like Parmesan cheese. My favorite way to eat it is on a kale salad. There is something about the flavors together that I adore.

After I liked that, I tried purchasing the Apple Cider Vinegar and integrating that into my diet. Apple Cider Vinegar as a lot of health benefits, if you buy the one with the 'mother' in it. It isnt filtered out and thats what makes it beneficial for you. I usually will do one shot of it a day (about two tablespoons) before I eat dinner to help aid in digestion. From my research, some of the benefits include helping lower blood sugar levels between 4-6% in diabetics, slowing cancer growth and can help contribute to weight loss.

Given that I liked the first few products that I tried, I bought the Liquid Aminos to see if they were all they were cracked up to be. I use it just like soy sauce. And you know what? You can't tell the difference. I've been trying to get my husband to try it, but he says that the Nutritional Yeast looks like fish flakes and he isnt interested in trying the Liquid Aminos.

He thinks some of this nutritional stuff I buy is voo doo. But, if I like, it, he doesn't really care that I purchase it. I've read some people like taking raw almonds and spraying two or three sprays of the liquid aminos on them instead of using salt.

There are lots of products out there that tout health benefits. I don't buy a lot of it unless I can find some type of substantive information on it.

I wasn't paid to write this about Bragg. I really wanted to share what I use to try to supplement flavor on my end without sacrificing quality and my health.

I also take health supplements from Hi-Health. I typically do a sub-lingual B-12 tablet (2 a day) and I take 5 HTP. It has B-6 and St. John's Wort in it as well. I've found it to be the best form of a carbohydrate craving suppressant that I can take that also helps with my mood. If I find myself getting up in the morning with crankypants and a snarky shirt on- this helps me regulate my mood. On and off, I like taking an adrenal supplement to try to get them functioning on a good level again. It also contains probiotics which can help with your immune system.

Do you have any favorite products you use all the time? Any supplements you rave about?
