Boost Your Meal’s Nutrition with Prana Organic Whole Black ProactivChia Seeds

October 28, 2015 by Kathryn 2 Comments

As a bit of a foodie who’s also concerned about my health, I love discovering ways of increasing my favourite meals’ taste and nutritional content. A top organic food company I discovered a few years ago, Prana Organic, has come up with a new way of doing that and it’s one that any health-conscious food-lover should try! Prana Whole Black ProactivChia Seeds boost the fibre, protein, omega-3 and probiotics in meals just by adding a few tablespoons of seeds. And the addictive crunch will have you wanting to add them to everything!

I recently received the Prana Organic Whole Black ProactivChia Seeds so that I could test the product in a few of my favourite dishes. While these seeds are great when combined with yogurt and fruit to make a parfait, I found that I actually preferred them in savoury dishes rather than sweet ones. And this hearty tuna wrap I often make for lunch is a perfect example of how chia seeds can be used to make a good meal even better! I just mixed the seeds into a bowl with tuna, mayo, onion, carrot and spices! [Read more…]

Avoid Stomach Troubles on Vacation with Bio-K+ Probiotic Capsules

September 3, 2013 by Kathryn 4 Comments

This post brought to you by Bio-K+. All opinions are 100% mine.

There's nothing more frustrating than having a vacation ruined by stomach troubles. Whether you're spending your time shopping in the city or lounging on a beach, traveller's diarrhea, food poisoning and other stomach upsets can take the fun out of the experience pretty quickly.

That's why Bio-K+ Travel Protection Probiotic Capsules are the perfect choice for any world traveller that isn't willing to let stomach upset slow them down. A good friend actually told me a story about attending a gourmet food tour and getting a stomachache from the incredibly rich food. Fortunately, another attendee had a supply of probiotics to share. The next day, my friend felt great and was ready for adventure!

Keep Your Tummy Smiling with Swiss Natural Probiotic Supplements

May 2, 2012 by Kathryn 2 Comments

Proper eating can really be a pain sometimes. I try my best to make wholesome, healthy meals for my family but it seems like there’s always some supplement or nutrient that we’re not getting enough of. If we don’t have fish twice a week, we’re not getting enough Omega-3. If we don’t eat a certain amount of whole grains, we’re missing out on fibre. I just can’t seem to balance our diet so that it includes everything we need!

swiss natural probiotic age adult supplementWell thanks to Swiss Natural, I can at least make sure that the whole family is getting their proper dose of probiotics every single day! The company offers three great probiotic supplements so that getting the right amount of probiotics is easy! We received a box of each type of supplement to test out and I was very curious to see how they worked.

Swiss Natural Probiotic Age offers three different probiotics supplements for different ages: Child, Adult and Adult 50+. Each variety has a different level of c.f.u. (colony forming units) per capsule. Unlike some other probiotic supplements, no refrigeration is required for these convenient capsules. And both the child and the adult varieties are easy to open and add to food or drink. I really liked the idea of being able to add the supplement right to my boys’ juice to make sure they were getting the proper amount of beneficial bacteria for their intestinal health each day.

The main thing I had to remember about the probiotic supplements is that they needed to be taken on a full stomach, so we generally didn’t use them first thing in the morning when we took the rest of our vitamins. Instead I waited until supper and then my husband and I each took a capsule just before we ate. I added the boys’ capsules to their food or drink depending on what we were eating.

To be completely honest, I’m not really sure what type of health changes I’m supposed to notice with a healthy level of probiotics, but I do know that having a healthy digestive system is something that I want for my whole family. It did seem like I experienced less of a bloated feeling after I had taken the probiotics for a few weeks. I also learned that probiotics help to prevent intestinal illnesses by ensuring that there are adequate good bacteria to fight off infection.

I really like the capsule form of this supplement and there’s no doubt that it made getting a healthy level of probiotics much easier since I didn’t have to worry about having a refrigerator nearby or buying a certain brand of yoghurt. Instead I could just take a convenient capsule with my meal and know that my digestive system was as healthy as it could be. If you’re looking for an easy way to get your probiotics every day, why not give Swiss Natural Probiotic Age capsules a try? You’ll love how convenient they are!
