I feel like I need a pause button. How is it already Friday? No complaints there. How is it already July? How is it that I keep forgetting to post things I mean to post weeks ago? I blame it on National Blonde day, which was yesterday by the way. My natural color is dirty blonde so I figure I can make that excuse and act “blonde” for the week. No offense to my fellow blondies.
Anyway, that is neither here nor there. My main objective for this post was to A (write a review and giveaway) and B (share a workout). Lets get started before I lose focus again.
A while back, the wonderful folks at Sun Chlorella USA sent me a sample package of some of their great Chlorella supplements. The package consisted of everything from daily tablets and granules to lotion and herbal tea!
-
potassium
-
B vitamins
-
magnesium
-
zinc
-
iron
-
18 amino acids
-
beta carotene
-
lutein
Needless to say, I like supplement chlorella in my diet. No they did not pay me to say that. Like I said, real food supplements help me feel more energized and alive.
My favorite were the granules. Tossing them into green smoothies, juices, made it easy to absorb. Whoops, this one was half way gone before I realized I needed to snap a shot.

I stumbled upon your blog when looking for foodblogs, and I'm interested to try some of your recipes. I like that you're healthy, but get creative with your foods. Also, I'm going to try this work out on Wednesday. I've been looking for a new one to switch it up.
oh thats awesome! I was definitely that dork too. I think it paid off though, right? Have a great 4th Jenny! Lindsay ________________________________
Hey Girl! LOVE that workout! I was happy to go to a boot camp on Friday to get my interval training in because I've been a little lazy about it! I am totally a science nerd, when I was in middle school I was reading epidemiology books like the 'Hot Zone'! :PHope you have a wonderful weekend! 🙂

I learned Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) is a nucleotide-peptide complex of substances found only in chlorella. These substances: nucleic acids, amino acids, peptides, polysaccharides, and beta glucans nourish and replenish your body. This powerful phytonutrient (plant-derived substance) also contains vitamins, polysaccharides, beta-glucans, and an abundance of nucleic acids. CGF is not found in any other vitamin, mineral, herb, or food, it is only found in chlorella. haha I thought it was interesting so I copied and pasted all of it but I definitely love getting those natural amino acids in my diet!
You too! Lots of pool time?! ;)Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile
Ouch on the workout!! I like it 😉 I hope you have a fantastic weekend my dear. Enjoy enjoy enjoy
