The other day me and a friend worked out together at his home. After every workout I like to drink a protein drink, as everyone should in a body building program. My friend drinks protein drinks also but uses the classic liquid and powder and then stirring with a spoon.
If that’s how he wants to do it that’s fine I mean who doesn’t like a tasteless drink with almost no consistency except for the chunks of powder that did not mix. YUK!
Personally I would rather use whatever liquid (soy milk, water, juice, etc.) with some frozen or fresh fruit, and anything else I want to add for taste and nutritional value, and pop all that in a blender and be done within seconds and save myself from carpel tunnel syndrome.
So I made him a real shake in the blender and he said it was great and he knew how to do all that but it was such a pain taking the blender apart so he can clean it after each use. It should be cleaned otherwise you get all that hard food stuck in the cracks and crevices (again, YUK!).
The good news is there’s an easier way to clean your blender, and it only takes seconds. Immediately after use just fill it halfway with water and put a drop of dish washing liquid in it. Put the top back on it and stick it on the base and put it on “blend”. It will fill up with suds in less than one second. Turn it off pull off the top pour it our and then rinse it with water. Dry it out with a towel and you are done.
Needless to say my friend was thrilled.
Enjoy your protein drinks again.
God Bless,
Mike

It seems every day I hear more people complain about not feeling well. They say things like, “I need to go see my doctor.” I have spent most of my life pursuing better heath and guess what. I barely ever go to the doctor.
Now don’t get the wrong idea I am not saying we don’t need doctors, sometimes you just have to go for immediate care. It’s one of the most admirable professions in the world and they have worked hard to get to where they are.
However one of the most common misconceptions ever is, “My doctor takes care of my body.” Your doctor will guide you and give you advice and prescribe appropriate medications, when you’re sick. But I prefer to treat my health with preventive care rather than to wait until I get sick and then react to my body’s symptoms with a prescription or OTC drug. The truth is your health is your responsibility! Not your doctor’s, not your spouse’s, and certainly not the hot dog vendor.
Besides, when you have to see the doctor, it takes your precious time. Time that a lot of people really can’t afford to give. Most of us only get a few vacation days per year. It also takes your money, and it’s just not on most people’s list as to how they want to spend an afternoon. Over the next several days I will be sharing information on how to improve your health and feel better today without taking a trip to the doctor’s office.
1) Get More Exercise
Have you ever sat around the house all day and never felt good? I know we all deserve those days to sit around and relax but take 20 minutes and go do something active. You don’t have to run for miles at a time to feel better. Take a brisk walk around your neighborhood with your spouse. Play basketball with the kids. It has been well documented for years the physical benefits of exercise but it was just recently discovered that it also stimulates the mind and is a proven mood booster.
