Welcome to our Brand New Website with Reward Points

Welcome to our new updated website!!   You will find it much easier to use plus we are very happy to offer customer rewards points for all purchases made.

All you’ll need to do, as a returning customer from our old website, is to reset your password using the ‘lost password’ link on the My Account page. Use the same email address you used to create your account on our old website. Once that is done you’ll be able to log in and update your contact and delivery details and shop as usual. If you are a brand new customer, a warm welcome to you. You will need to complete your details as required.  If this is difficult to follow, I’d be happy to help.  Also, remember to always log in as this will enable you to view some of our special product sections that you can’t see unless you are logged in.

Winter is most definitely upon us and what better way to support our immunity than with the Immunity & Resistance packs or take a look at the other individual products in the Immune & Seasonal category. Keep an eye out for my regular blogs which will contain information on the blood type diet and the relevant supplements but also general information on natural health and wellbeing. My next blog will be on keeping ourselves healthy and happy during those cold winter months.

If you are living in the Auckland area we would love to hear from anybody interested in hosting a Blood Type Diet Party at their home. This will involve getting together some of your family and friends to attend and we will come along and do some demonstrations and talk about the BTD, the supplements and try some recipes out for you. You will be rewarded for your time and effort.

If this sounds like something you’d like to do email me on info@eatingrightlivingright.net or call me on 027 269 3558.

Thank you again for all your support.

Boosting Your Metabolism and Thyroid Function

Why is Thyroid function so important for a healthy metabolism?

The Thyroid is responsible for secreting certain hormones that control the metabolism and if it’s not functioning properly it can cause all sorts of symptoms.
Have you been feeling tired for no apparent reason, noticed weight changes, dry, brittle and thinning hair, skin conditions such as eczema, itchy skin, depression, muscle, and joint pain or menstrual irregularities? If so, your Thyroid could be the reason.

There are many vitamins and minerals necessary for healthy Thyroid function such as Zinc, Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, and Vitamin D but the two minerals I’d like to talk more about are Iodine and Selenium as they are the two most important ones. Iodine is required to make Thyroid hormone and the Selenium is necessary to activate the Thyroid hormone.

Check out the list of foods below to help naturally increase Selenium and Iodine in your daily diet.

Selenium:

  • Beef, Lamb, Chicken, and Turkey
  • Brazil Nuts
  • Seafood – Oysters, Mussels, Shrimp
  • Mushrooms – Portobella, Shiitake
  • Grains – Rice, Barley, Oats, and Quinoa
  • Seeds – Flaxseeds, Chia Seeds and Sunflower Seeds

Iodine:

  • Sea Vegetables – Kelp, Bladderwrack, Irish Moss, Nori
  • Sushi – with seaweed
  • Fish – Cod, Tuna
  • Himalayan Crystal Salt
  • Prunes
  • Eggs
  • Bananas
  • Green Beans
  • Prunes
  • The “Metabolism Booster Pack” could also be a great six week programme for you
  • Harmonia Deluxe Powder – contains Kelp, Bladderwrack, Parsley and many other powerhouse foods.

Delicious Recipes

Welcome to our very first EatingRightLivingRight blog.

The Pecan and Chocolate Protein Balls are one of many recipes I have created using Dr D’Adamo’s Blood Type Compliant Protein Blend and of those, three are so far entered onto our site.  You’ll find them under our “Recipes” page – Clean Green Smoothie, Green Tea and Raspberry Smoothie and now our Pecan and Chocolate Protein Balls. I am in the process of putting the finishing touches to the others, so keep an eye out for them coming through soon.

All of these recipes have been made with simplicity in mind and with ingredients that should not be difficult to find, be it in your local supermarket or wholefood or organic store. Ideally, we’d all like to eat organic food but in reality, it’s not always that simple, however growing your own can go a long way. If you can’t buy organic, try and find fresh fruit and vegetables and buy seasonal produce when you can as you’ll find them to be of far better quality.
