  Repairvite Powder – What To Do With It?

• Keep in mind that you need to have the Repairvite powder twice a day while on this protocol.  The best solution is to make a smoothie out of it each time.

Breakfast

• Breakfast can be a bit challenging if you’re used to cereal or toast and eggs.  Think about having a protein and a fruit.  Also, consider non-traditional breakfast foods for breakfast (i.e. chicken or fish).

Helpful Tips To Make Repairvite Work For You!

• Remember that you need to eat whole foods, not processed foods.  Shop in the produce, meat and alternative dairy department of the grocery store.
• Make things easy for yourself.  Wash your fruit and keep it handy so you’ll snack on it when you’re supposed to.
• Eat 4-6 small meals per day.
• Read food labels, even on meats!  No gluten, dairy or soy!
• Watch for hidden gluten in things like spices.  A. Vogel Herbamare is an excellent brand of spices that is gluten free.
• When preparing meats (like chicken), make a double batch so you’ll have leftovers for salads the next few days.
• If you’re craving grains, try eating sweet potatoes and/or chickpeas.  You can roast sweet potatoes in olive oil and serve as a side dish.  Chickpeas are full of protein and can be added to salads.
