Nutrition That Sticks

About two months ago, I started traveling for work. While it was amazing to visit different places, and absorb an enormous amount of information on the speaking business and marketing, it did a number on my health and fitness. I noticed that because my eating habits were completely off, I wasn't feeling well. Not only that, I felt like none of my food was "sticking". I actually felt like I was not absorbing any of the nutrients from any of the foods I consumed. It was so bad that I started eating about every two hours ridiculous amounts of food, and an hour later, I was hungry again. I wasn't even able to fully enjoy my meals because I was eating just to stop myself from feeling nauseated... scarfing them down as if I hadn't eaten in a month! Fortunately, when I got back home, Darren gave me a package of Mila, chia seeds.

Now, I don't buy into most, if any, of the "superfood" this and magical that. However, I found that after having a glass of Mila per day, I almost instantly started feeling better.

I don't propose this to be a miracle food, or that it's going to magically make you invincible, or give you super powers. I do know that it is filled with nutrients, omega 3's and protein, but most importantly... it just made me feel better. I eat pretty healthy and I notice how my body reacts to different foods. After throwing some in my water, before eating, I felt like my body was absorbing nutrients again. I've heard that other people have had other life changing stories...
