I've got a protein-packed giveaway today thanks to the folks at Vega, but first. Happy fall! This is my ideal season to cook, feast, and write about it, especially after lots of time off, but here's what I always wonder:
Is there a time of year that's more confusing on the body than early fall?
It started with the seasonal allergy sniffles and that was just the beginning. I know many people get excited about the change in the air, and while I certainly do welcome the shift, it takes a few weeks before I physically adjust. The skin, the hair, the muscles and joints all need a little extra love around this time.
To stay well during the transition, I reach for warm beverages, hot yoga, lots of ginger and turmeric, hydrating soup, and a daily shot of Holy Basil extract mixed with water. And almost nothing makes me feel better like a spicy dal from 660 Curries. Another way to keep the immune system charged for the days ahead? Vega One Nutritional Shake.
While I'm a fan of Vega products for fitness and muscle recovery, I also lean on them when I am not feeling my best and need a pick-me-up. The Vega One shake contains 50% daily intake of vitamins and minerals, 1.5g Omega-3, as well as antioxidants, probiotics, and greens to support a healthy immune system. It's also my favorite of all of the Vega products, taste-wise. Come to me, Vanilla Chai flavor.
In the spirit of sharing the wellness, I'm giving away a 5 Day Vega One Starter Kit to one reader. If you've never tried Vega, this is the perfect opportunity to do so before committing to a full tub. The kit contains 5 packets of their top flavors: Chocolate, French Vanilla, and Berry. To enter, simply leave a comment below on how you stay well as the weather changes. For an additional entry, follow me on Instagram at instagram.com/onthevedge (let me know that you did so in your comment).
Thanks for entering, and stay healthy! UPDATE: Giveaway is now closed.
