If there’s one thing everyone agrees on it’s that lemons are good for you.

What about those avocados?
I always thought avocados were for those skinny people that need nutrient and fat dense foods, because they don’t get enough calories. Well- I happen to find calories wherever I go, no problem there, thank you very much. This is why I was never a big advocate for avocados. But- I changed my mind …

I know- Pfizer+Moderna+Astra-zenica+ more labs are on it- soon everybody will be happily hugging sweaty people they barely know, and everything will be back to normal.

Apple-sauce instead of what??
Apples are a favorite of mine. I absolutely think fruit are nature’s fancy cakes, and I am risking being labeled as a douch/purist/hippie/all 3 together-and I don’t give a f%^&. Because- I am a true skeptic, and almost everything in life-in my opinion , is to be seriously doubted and double, if not triple-checked before …

Pre-workout snacks debate-seriously??
So, recently, since enhancing my workout routine, I changed my eating habits.
