Well + Good NYC, a great New York City blog that focuses on health and wellness, just did a profile of me and my fridge.
In the post, you will see what’s in my fridge and learn:
- Why my fridge is not completely stocked
- My juicing, eating and food shopping habits
- Whether I ever stray or not from eating healthy
- Some of my favorite organic restaurants in NYC
FOLLOW-UP TO THE ARTICLE
Here are a few follow-up items to the article, in case you were wondering.
What is each organic food item in the picture (l to r)?
Top shelf: Cashew nut milk, brazil nuts (always keep nuts in the fridge – last longer), raw cacao powder (not sure it is necessary to keep in the fridge but i do anyway), Premier Research Labs cod liver capsules (most fish oil capsules are rancid — this is THE top brand of supplements, not available at health food stores), DeSouza liquid chlorophyll, E3 Live
Middle Shelf: Wheatgrass, washed and cut kale and celery for juicing, cold-brewed green tea for smoothies
Bottom Shelf: Hummus, blueberries
Why will I not eat fish but take fish oil capsules?
The fish oil capsules I take are specifically tested for mercury.
How do I view food?
I view food as medicine. I get into it much more HERE.
Are there other organic restaurants that I go to?
Yes, many. Here is the post I did about some of my other favorites.
New ones have recently opened, and I will be updating this post in early 2012.
Max, I loved the profile. It gets very specific, showing people *how* it can be done. I’m not 100% organic yet, but I’m working on it!
Hi Jean,
Thanks so much!!! I really appreciate it. Yes, it can be done and each person can go at their own pace. They don’t have to go 100% organic day 1.
And I am very happy that you’re moving in that direction. Great to connect on Twitter also!
Live well,
Max
Great to have a visual of your refrigerator and a sweet profile.
Congratulations!
BTW when I am in NY I love shopping at Integral Yoga–very lucky you live so close to IY.
All the best,
stephanie
Hi Stephanie,
Thanks so much!
Yes, Integral Yoga is a fantastic market and believe me, it is no coincidence that I live so close to it. It was by design!
Have a great weekend!
Live well,
Max
Hello Max,
Do you mind clarifying your statement re chicken /white meat and high estrogen levels?
Simply curious.
Wishing you a great weekend as well.
All the best,
stephanie
Hi Stephanie,
White meat animals are estrogen-producing animals. That is all I know.
Have a great weekend.
Live well,
Max
