The Mindful Foodie’s Guide | Snacks, Dips & Baked Goodies

The last few months have been absolutely nuts with an insane number of weddings and Diwali shenanigans. Needless to say, while I’ve been actively hitting the gym and continuing with yoga sessions, all the parties and the sheer pace of this season catches up with our bodies. Staying hydrated just isn’t

I had the polisher an hour before lunch, which was a green tea {antioxidant as well as a metabolism booster} based drink with pineapple {for its bromelain and the ability to kick fat in the butt}, and ashwagandha – a herb heavily used in Ayurveda for a host of health benefits.

with antioxidant properties}, sweet basil {for better immunity} and red and green peppers for collagen production and healthy skin. In addition to the juice, I received a comprehensive guide with dietary instructions and disclaimers. The Verdict Although the juices didn’t score very high on the palatability test, I loved how I felt afterwards and am keen on trying their ‘nine lives’ cleanse for its almond milk and coconut sugar concoction.
