Fatigue Facts & Stats

* 20% of Americans claim to have fatigue intense enough to interfere with their having a normal life.

* 80% of American women will suffer from Adrenal Fatigue at some point in their lives. Who? Most susceptible are new moms, students, shift workers and women in transition (job loss or gain, moving and relocating, marriage, divorce.) Change for the better or worse is a major trigger.

* More than half of American women (60%) say they only get a good night’s sleep a few nights per week or less, and 67% say they frequently experience a sleep problem.

•  Women who spend less than 7 hours in bed at night are more likely to doze off during the day, report symptoms of depression and drive drowsy.

If constant fatigue is sucking the joy out of your life, don’t just take it – do something!  One recommendation is to read by – Dr. Perlmutter. His work is outstanding and was so shocking to me that change was easy! I am now gluten-free, 15 lbs lighter and having a couple migraines a month vs. every week. Oh and I have a TON more energy too. Your turn.

I’ve watched this single dietary shift (total elimination of gluten) lift depression, relieve chronic fatigue, reverse type 2 diabetes, extinguish obsessive-compulsive behavior, and cure many neurological challenges, from brain fog to bipolar disorder.” – Dr. Perlmutter, Grain Brain

Hallelujah Hummus Plus – Gluten Free, Energy Boosting Snack

Hallelujah Hummus Plus

This is one of my favorite snacks and it is soooo FAST and easy to make with the “Magic Bullet.” This recipe is one of many with the ‘bullet” and can be made in a couple of minutes – max.

Step 1. Load the following into your bullet (or blender)

¼ cup Chicken (or vegetable) Stock
14 oz can Chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
3 cloves Garlic
2 Tbs Lemon Juice
3 Tbs. Tahihi (sesame paste)

Step 2Add these energy-boosters
½ tsp Kelp Powder
½ tsp Sea Salt
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper

Step 3. Blend!
Psst. You can check out the Magic Bullet in our Amazon store. Just click here and look in the “Kitchen Equipment” List.

Scoop your hummus into a pretty bowl, drizzle olive oil on top and serve with a side of veggies and gluten-free crackers.

Another fun way to present it is to make little cucumber sandwiches or lettuce roll ups. You can pack these “to go” in lunches. I  also like to use fun, colorful toothpicks or paper umbrellas to jazz it up for snacks with friends.
