Eat Real to Heal by Nicolette Richer - A Review


As part of a new section to my blog, I have invited my husband, Elijah Olson to begin sharing some of his research and expertise on health and food related books and submissions.  This comes on the heels of his upcoming book.  I hope you enjoy this new venture into kitchen magic in healing with food.  I look forward to your comments as we move forward with our Meatless Monday series.



Book Cover


Today I am reviewing a book written by Nicolette Richer called Eat Real to Heal. Nicolette uses the Gerson Therapy or otherwise known as the Gerson Method as a basis for her book.

Nicolette does a fantastic job of breaking it down even further into easily digestible chunks of information for the layman. She adds her personal journey as well as personal accounts from clients that really allows the reader to engage and relate. She speaks specifically to chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Nicolette has not only researched but she has also experimented and proven these methods to work on herself and her family and this is relayed clearly throughout the book. She has provided clear steps for the reader and included meal planning and recipes. She is an accomplished businesswoman that promotes healthy eating and healthy living.



You can give this book an added home on your shelf, you will not be disappointed.

For the Love of Juice


Yes, today it’s a double post kinda day.  Today was the posting of my Pagan Blog Project post.  I did O is for Offerings.  Then I wanted to do another post.  Last week hubby and I made a huge score at the thrift store.  We found a Champion Juicer for 14.00.  Champion retails for 269.00. 




We were thrilled.  We got it home and noticed the plunger didn't fit all the way in the machine.  I went online and ordered a new one.  $12.

Today was the second day we attempted to use it.  I have to say. It’s flapping amazing.  The website offers recipes that you can use to select different things to make.  There’s a mill attachment for making your own flours, and even ice cream with this thing.  It’s quite amazing.
So today we made two types of juice.  Both were amazing. 

Cocktail Delicious
2 apples cored
3 carrots
1 stalk of Celery


1.       Core the apples
2.       Add apples, carrots & celery in that order
3.       Drink

Hubby didn't care for this one.  I thought it was good.  He felt the celery was too strong.  We used organics for each and it was really good.

Cocktail Springtime
2 oranges peeled
½ lemon peeled
2 carrots
½ cup dandelion leaves

1.       Peel the oranges
2.       Peel the lemons
3.       Juice in that order – oranges, lemons, carrots, greens
4.       Wash the greens
5.       Juice in that order
6.       Drink

We didn't have any dandelion leaves so we just leave those out.

This one was really tasty.  Hubby liked it so much that we doubled the recipe for a second round of juice so I could have a glass as well.  I could see adding a bit of ginger to this to give it a little zip.

Over all a really good product and some awesome juice.  For $26 I have a top of the line juicer, recommend by Gerson’s Institute.   SCORE!!!

I love love love my juicer.

Namaste & Blessed Be
