While you're raising your glass of water in toast to the holiday and our independance, remember Cindy Majdecki who passed away on July 4th two years ago now. Of course, her page will continue to update with many of her favorite tips and health information!!

Eat A Sweet Potato - Research shows that eating a sweet potato can give you a steady boost of energy for up to three hours and cut your energy sags in half. Sweet potatoes have 50% more fiber than white potatoes and the fiber slows absorption which allows blood sugar to stay even. They are delicious mashed with a little maple syrup and cinnamon but can be prepared many ways. They are also great for breakfast to start your day off with a boost!

Eat Your Kale! - Full of many essential vitamins and minerals, Kale really is a superfood! Kale is a great source of calcium and is a natural energy booster. Tastes great lightly sautéed in a little oil with onion and garlic. Sautéing Kale also helps make it more digestible and the energy producing vitamins and minerals more easily absorbed for the body to use.
