What we drink is as important as what we eat. Tea should be a part of our diets and has tremendous health benefits. Whether you enjoy caffeine or prefer to skip it , there is a tea for you. Below is Dr. G’s favorite tea blend. Not only is red tea great for your health but also for your skin! It packs a punch by offering 50x more potent anti-oxidant levels than Green Tea and aids in soothing distressed and blotchy skin. Look for Rooibos and a white tea blend in all of the Plant Profusion products!
What you need:
5 tea bags or loose Rooibos/ Red Tea
5 tea bags or loose White tea
1 tablespoon rose hips (High in Vitamin C)
Honey to taste (anti-oxidant + high in Flavonoids)
Steep together for 20 minutes and serve hot or chill for iced tea.
Hey guys! I’m Jennifer Taylor, a Holistic Health Coach, Private Chef & Yoga Teacher. I love each individual role but what really excites me is the intersection of the three. I work with my coaching clients on strengthening the connection between the feeling body and the thinking mind. This is how they start to really understand and be able to respond to the unique messages they get from their bodies. Creating clean eating programs gives me an opportunity to share my recipes and turn people on to how delicious and simple clean eating can be. The most rewarding thing is how often I hear that the cleanse recipes have become staples in people’s repertoires, even after the 7 days are over.
I am a proponent of what I call, Rational Cleansing. This is a gentle way of cleansing the body that emphasizes whole, seasonal foods while removing the major allergens and irritants from the diet for a period of time. There is no deprivation here. This is about nourishment, not punishment. Think of it as changing the oil in your car—by lightening the load on your organ systems and giving them good, clean fuel, you’re letting them do their jobs at maximum capacity. We already have this incredible detoxification system in place—periodic gentle cleansing just harnesses the power of our own bodies. How cool is that?!?

Here is a bonus recipe to get you excited about what you could be a part of:
BONUS RECIPE:As we creep into the summer months I can’t get enough watermelon. It tastes sweet, but it’s actually 90% water making it a delicious, low-sugar way to get hydrated. This soup makes a great meal–breakfast, lunch or dinner. I especially love it as a light way to fuel before or after a really sweaty workout.
Watermelon Gazpacho
makes 1 serving
2 cups cubed watermelon
1 medium tomato cored & roughly chopped (about 1 cup)
2 t rice vinegar
1 T olive oil plus more for garnish
juice of 1/2 a lime
1/2 t sea salt
1 T cilantro, chopped, plus more for garnish
1 T raw pumpkin seeds plus more for garnish
optional 1/2 jalapeno pepper, chopped
-Place all ingredients in a high speed blender and process until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. This might take some tweaking—you want it to be salty, tangy and slightly sweet. Add a little more lime, a little more salt, a little more vinegar, etal, as needed. Chill for at least an hour and top with flaky sea salt, chopped cilantro & pumpkin seeds to serve.

Fall always puts me in the mood for a hearty breakfast. Keeping our bodies fueled on healthy food is the key to great nutrition, amazing energy and a healthy body. Since saying goodbye to dairy two years ago, I thought there were favorite dishes I couldn’t enjoy. So I set off on a mission to make a delicious dairy free frittata. Not only was it easier to make than I expected, it was as delicious! Frittatas can also be eaten for lunch or dinner!
The most important part to making a successful frittata is the pan. The best option is a cast iron skillet, but a non-stick deep omelet pan will work just fine. The idea behind the cast iron pan is that cast iron holds other flavors and transfers them to the frittata. Cast iron also browns and crisps the frittata more efficiently. If you don’t own a cast iron or a non-stick, a regular deep skillet will work; just make sure to really coat the bottom and sides with olive oil or coconut oil or a non-stick spray.
Ingredients needed:
6 whole organic eggs
½ cup sliced mushrooms
½ cup steamed, drained spinach
½ cup diced steamed potatoes
1 handful of diced herb of choice (basil or parsley)
½ cup of chopped veggie meat substitute (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Teaspoon of coconut oil or olive oil
Turn the oven on to broil. In a large bowl lightly beat the 6 eggs together. Add a dash of salt and pepper. Heat the skillet to low-medium temperature on the stovetop and add a teaspoon of olive oil or coconut oil. Add vegetables and meat option and simmer. Stir with rubber spatula. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set up on top. Sprinkle with the basil or parsley. Place pan into the oven and broil for 3 to 4 minutes, until lightly browned and fluffy. Be very careful when removing the pan from the oven, as it can be extremely hot(always use an oven mitt). Let the frittata rest for a few minutes then remove carefully and serve in pie shaped slices. Can be served with a side of seasonal berries or sliced avocado.
