We love vegetable juice. We’re those people you see sipping from a bottle of a green juice while running errands, cooling off after an intense Vinyasa class, and scrolling though emails at work. What don’t we love about some juices? The added sugar and unpronounceable ingredients that plague so many juices! We also don’t like it when companies show you a “green juice” thats actually loaded with fruits and barely has any veggies! Luckily, SaladPower avoids all that bad stuff- they sell the world’s first drinkable salad & they always put nutrient dense superfoods first. Here’s six reasons why you’ll be drinking your salad:
1.) 100% Natural, 100% Non-GMO Certified Ingredients: No funky preservatives, artificial flavors, or added sugar in this bottle! Just pure veggie goodness.
2.) Drink your veggies: Every bottle of Salad Power contains a nutrient dense, superfood blend of Kale, Carrot, Spinach, Tomato, Bell Pepper, Celery and Cucumber! This superfood blend is always the first ingredient in every flavor – this keeps their flavors vitamin rich and low in calories & sugar!
3.) Four Delicious Flavors: Choose from classic Just Veggies, or if you crave a little fruit try +Apple, +Pineapple, or +Mango!
4.) Low Calorie & Sugar: Get a boost of vitamins and nutrients for only 60 calories and 9 grams of sugar per bottle with their Just Veggies flavor!
5.) They Know Nutrition. SaladPower’s founders worked painstakingly to come up with a juice that passed the sniff test of any super health, nutrition nut ! They were very scientific & nutritionally aware with their approach and the results are awesome !

This blog post was written by our partners, Enerchi Bites! We love them and hope you will too.- Fit Snack
Enerchi Bites is re-defining the energy bar. How often to you actually eat the whole bar?
Twin sisters, and co-founding duo, Annie and Marla, solved the problem of having to break off a piece and made it easy for you to have a couple bites and or share with a friend.
They also only the added good stuff to their products–superfoods like chia seeds and hemp seed protein, and real-food ingredients like organic unsulphured apple rings and sunflower seeds. Each ingredient adds value to the nutritional and taste profile.
Enerchi bites are free of soy, dairy, and nuts! All the bites are soft and chewable (imagine cookie dough texture) so they are kid-friendly and pre-molar teeth friendly. Now, you don’t have to hesitate to give them to your kids or include them in their school lunch boxes. Enerchi bites are the perfect mid-day snack, giving you not just an opportunity to re-fuel your body, but to also re-fuel your mind. Their zen logo represents the symbol of chi.
It symbolizes and reminds you to take a breath, and a moment to yourself to reflect, munch mindfully, and then voila, the chi, also known as, “vital energy” will flow through you with less effort, and more ease.

Fun costumes, spooky decorations, mugs of apple cider…what’s not to love about Halloween? If you have a sweet tooth, trying to avoid binge-eating candy can be a challenge. Luckily, there’s many healthier alternatives that will put you in a festive mood without causing cavities. Here’s five of our favorite healthy Halloween recipes, that are equally yummy year round!
1.) “Candy Corn” Chicken Quesadillas
2.) Devilish Avocado Sriacha Eggs
Replace mayonnaise with avocado for a scary good twist on the classic deviled egg! These spicy eggs are high in protein and healthy fats, making them the perfect appetizers.
3.) 3 Ingredient Banana Mummies
Gluten, dairy, egg, soy, and nut free? Check check and check! These frozen treats made with banana, coca butter and coconut sugar are sure please even the pickiest of eaters.
4.) Cheese Witches Brooms
These party snacks are the perfect size to satisfy salty cravings!
5.) Veggie Skeleton
The only time veggies should be spooky! Mix up the dip for whatever sounds good to you. We’d serve the veggies with home made hummus. Just blend olive oil, garbanzo beans, tahini sauce, garlic, lemon juice in a food processor and enjoy!
-Happy Halloween from the Fit Snack Team!
