3 Day Detox With Healthy Food: Day 1
Posted by Phuong on Oct 12th, 2011
  I love to eat so it is very important to cleanse my body a few times a year to remove the toxins. Plus I really like the way it makes me feel - light, happy, and clean! I've done the 10 day master cleanse and a juice and tea cleanse, but my favorite is a cleanse that includes healthy food. If you want to do the intense 10 day cleanse, where you stop eating for 10+ days, I recommend doing this first, then the juice and tea cleanse, then build up t...

3 Day Detox With Healthy Food: Day 2
Posted by Phuong on Oct 12th, 2011
  Why detox? You give your car a tune-up every six months and an oil change every 3,000 miles. Why not do that for your body - your temple of beauty - by detoxing? When you detox, you're healing and rejuvenating your body; you're turning back the hands of time on aging. Detoxifying our bodies helps to eliminate toxic waste accumulations, mucus, parasites and worms (that steal what little nutrition we get or have in our bodies), excess fat, f...

3 Day Detox With Healthy Food: Day 3
Posted by Phuong on Oct 11th, 2011
  Yay! Today is the last day of my 3 day cleanse. I feel so much lighter and healthier and I can even see my stomach getting flatter. Today I made sure I drank a lot of Koni Herbal Teas, such as Kapha, Holy Detox, and Throat Revival. It hasn't been so bad with this 3 day cleanse because I'm still eating healthy food and working out. Most people eat way too much which is really hard on the liver and kidneys. This healthy 3 day detox still allows ...

'Shrooms and Tea Fight Cancer
Posted by Phuong on Oct 8th, 2011
  October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and if you love mushrooms and tea, this is the recipe for you. Separately, tea and mushrooms work well to prevent cancer. Drinking tea on a daily basis reduces the risk by about 40%, while eating fresh mushrooms- results in an almost 60% risk reduction. When taken together, they are like the power couple of anti-carcinogens. According to a study done by the Journal of Cancer, when enjoyed together, tea and...

Vodka Infused With Chocolate Truffle Chai
Posted by Phuong on Oct 4th, 2011
  Chai, a popular spiced tea from India, is robust and flavorful served both hot and cold. I love a hot cup of Koni Chocolate Truffle Chai on a cold winter morning with a spoonful of honey and a shot of coconut milk. The flavor is so comforting and the coconut milk makes it silky and smooth. The chocolate and vanilla notes from this special Koni black tea blend complement the spiced tea perfectly. I took the same recipe, poured it over ice,...

3 Delicious Hot Toddy Recipes
Posted by Phuong on Oct 2nd, 2011
  On a cold fall night, one of my favorite drinks to make is a hot toddy. Popular belief holds that this drink will help cure a cold and get you to fall asleep. The fact is, it will make it worse in the long run. The alcohol in a hot toddy will help you fall asleep but it will decrease your immune system and interfere with your sleep cycle. If you are feeling under the weather, I recommend Koni Immunity Booster and Throat Revival Caffeine Free Teas...

Fig Jam With Vanilla And Honey
Posted by Phuong on Oct 1st, 2011
  Figs are not only one of my favorite fruits but it's also one of the healthiest foods on the planet. Figs are very high in fiber, potassium, calcium, antioxidants, and even lowers insulin levels and triglyceride levels. Delicate and sweet in flavor, fig jam is one of my favorite things to make in the late summer. I used a light colored honey to allow more of the fig flavor to be enhanced. Honey will also help fruits retain their jewel like colors...

  • Why You're Not Losing Those Last 5 lbs Phuong Says: March 25th, 2011, 10:03am Hi Vikki! The phytoestrogenic and antioxidant activity of Licorice Root is believed to be helpful for hormonal disorders such as fatigue, mood swings, and hot flashes in menopausal women. KONI Throat Revival is a great one and it is caffeine free which is also what you want. <3
