#86 Hydrate with an Infusion of Health!

Feels good because when I make my own "infusions" I know they are healthy!


orange slices in infusion chamber

It is hot out!  Thus, it is especially important to keep hydrated.  Instead of grabbing for a juice, water, or pop, how about grabbing your infuser water bottle?  That's right, this bottle has a built in infuser so you can fill the chamber with all natural flavourful delights.  A few of our favourite water infusing ingredients are: sliced strawberries, cut up orange, and mint leaves.

The bottle we have is made by Tundra. They are easy to clean, and easy to use.

#18 Green Tea for You!

 Tired of drinking the same old tea or cup of coffee?  Well Green Tea may be just the "hot cuppa" that you are looking for.  Add it to your daily regimine, even just once a day.
 
Research has shown the benefits to be outstanding.   The powerful antioxidants in this tea have been found to:  lower your chance of heart disease and cancer, bring down blood pressure, facilitate weight loss faster, prevent arthritus, and keep allergies away. 
 
Sip it slowly and savour.  Need a healthy, cool summer drink? Serve it cold over ice with a twist of lemon.
 
I have found a local (Greater Victoria) tea source that is excellent.  They also ship their teas as well, so their teas know no boundaries.  Check out www.stillwatertea.com
 
The Founder of Still Water Tea, Angela Graye, is a mother of five children.  "She is fully committed to promoting peace, tranquility, relaxation, and rejuvenation within oneself.  healized that going non-stop for what felt like 24 hours in a day was very unhealthy.  This is what motivated her to promote tea.   Notonly for it's health benefits but also for its natural, calming effects." (excerpt from Still Water Tea's  web site"about us")
