Tried & True: Aztec Clay Mask, Bulletproof Collagen Bars

It’s been a hot minute since sharing a a new Tried & True post. (Find the my last one, here- Tried & True: Nadamoo, Zevia, & Plantain Chips.) But in using an amazing clay mask (shared below) so frequently lately, I decided it was necessary to share these goodies with the world!

The purpose of my Tried & True series is to share my favorite product finds with you! I never promote anything I don’t personally use or enjoy. And, my promise to you is just that. You can trust that I would recommend any of these products to my best friend or momma bear!

Aztec Clay Mask

First up, this awesome Aztec Clay Mask! Several months ago, I found this gem at HEB and used it religiously for weeks. For some reason I don’t remember, I eventually stopped. However, it came to mind a couple weeks ago when detoxing my body after a week of vacation (and lots of food). Over the past two weeks, I have used it every other day and my skin looks better than ever before. Blemishes are minimal and my skin is glowing- both of which are totally rare for me. I linked this Aztec Clay Mask in Amazon below. It’s $10 and totally worth it. Trust me, you don’t want to pass on this one!

 

Bulletproof Collagen Protein Bars

Secondly, these Bulletproof Collagen Protein Bars have been my recent kryptonite. If y’all know me, you know my obsession with RX bars, which is still totally relevant. But, in effort to cut down on the sugar in my diet, RX bars have taken a back seat. I snagged some of these collagen bars on sale and immediately got hooked. I’m not going to lie (told y’all you can trust me), the texture is 5 out of 10. It’s often crumbly, but despite the fall-apart texture, the taste and ingredients are spot on. Typically, I wouldn’t advocate for packaged foods (always choose whole, real food before packaged!), but when I’m on the run or in a hurry, I’m super confident that I am fueling my body the best I can with these bars. Lemon, Vanilla Shortbread, and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough are my fav flavors! I’ve linked the variety pack below.

 

 

I’ll be back soon with more favorite finds! ‘Til next time, XOXO!

I've heard it said time and time again, "I was jus I've heard it said time and time again, "I was just born with a slow metabolism!" But, what if a slow metabolism has MORE to do with diet and lifestyle choices and LESS to do with genetics?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are 5 ways to restore healthy metabolic function, today! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Eat a balanced breakfast within 30-60 minutes of waking up. If you're not hungry, start small and work your way up to a full meal.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Eliminate ALL trans fats, PUFAs, and refined foods. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Stick to short, strength training workouts instead of long, cardio routines.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Eat a balanced snack 1-2 hours before bed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. Don't be afraid of sugar, but stick to unrefined sources, like seasonal fruits, local + raw honey, and coconut sugar. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tag a friend to share these quick tips to jumpstarting your slow metabolism!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE ABOUT FOOD?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm Kelsey Nicole 👋🏼 and as a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I believe...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• We should eat like our ancestors did⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Seasonal eating is the most nutritious and delicious way to eat⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Fat and carbs are necessary AND good⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Every person is bio-individual (so, their diets should be too)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Quality > quantity⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Our society is chronically diseased (and most of us don't know any different)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Common symptoms are NOT normal (ie. PMS, fatigue, acid reflux, bloating, rashes, acne, weight gain, infertility, insomnia, etc)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Eating less and moving more isn't always the answer⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When it comes to diet and lifestyle, what do you believe? Have you ever thought about it before? I encourage you to because what we believe actually dictates how we live.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, do you:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Feel fearful of food?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Follow fad diets and trends?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Gain weight as quickly as you lost it?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Feel guilt and shame when eating “bad foods?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Experience food cravings daily?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Experience bloating, gas, and acid reflux daily?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If so, I dare to say your diet and lifestyle are NOT serving you well! If you’re ready to honor your body and experience long term health, let me know 😉 I’d love to open your eyes to a whole new world! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The holidays might be over, but the Winter season The holidays might be over, but the Winter season is still holding strong. Lucky for us, that means we can load up on this delicious Winter Salad!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I used to think my irregular periods were cool. My I used to think my irregular periods were cool. My periods were so light and far & few between, I thought I was the lucky one.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
BOY, WAS I WRONG 😫⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is why:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A woman’s menstrual cycle is a HUGE indicator of health (or lack of it). It’s not called “the fifth vital sign” for nothing! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, if your period is irregular OR comes with any type of PMS symptoms (cramps, headaches, acne, etc), it’s time to take a step back and reevaluate. And, to take it a step further... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Can you sleep through the night without waking up? Are you able to manage your weight without excessive exercise or calorie restriction?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If not, it’s time to assess the status of your health- specifically, yourdigestion, hormones, metabolism, etc. Why?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because with a handful of lifestyle & diet changes, you can heal these symptoms for good and experience better sleep, skin, sex, energy, and more!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sign me up for that! What about you?! 🙃 👉🏼 @nourishedbykelseynicole⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Should you take supplements?! 💊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*Not without professional supervision or recommendation!*⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s the deal with supplements: they are SUPPLEMENTAL. Meaning, you can’t out-supplement an inflammatory diet or lifestyle. Plain and simple. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before turning to supplements, consider:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• working with a functional practitioner ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• removing inflammatory foods from your diet⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• prioritizing hydration and sleep⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• testing for nutrient deficiencies and underlying health issues⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then, and only then, should you opt for supplements (in addition to diet and lifestyle changes) to aid in your healing journey!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Got it? Good 🙃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

WHY YOU DON'T NEED TO DRINK MORE WATER 🙅🏻‍ WHY YOU DON'T NEED TO DRINK MORE WATER 🙅🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before I go any further, hear this: yes, water is essential and most of us can benefit from drinking more. But, NOT if you aren’t absorbing the water you drink!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You might not be absorbing water, if you:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Go to the bathroom multiple times a day⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Constantly feel thirsty⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Carry water weight and bloating⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, instead of drinking more water this year, focusing on actually keeping your body hydrated! And all you need is one ingredient to do so...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
SALT! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, not just any salt: sea salt or pink Himalayan salt. Personally, I like Redmond's salt!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here's what to do: add a sprinkle of sea salt to your water and food throughout the day for optimal hydration and electrolyte balance!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What should you eat in the New Year? 🤷🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Without a doubt, knowing WHAT to eat is the #1 area of confusion when it comes to reaching your health goals.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏼 Should you eat carbs? What about fat?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏼 Are organic fruits & veggies necessary?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏼 Is sugar bad?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I believe the answer is truly an individual one. No two people are the same, so why should their diet be?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When working with clients, I give clear and specific recommendations on foods to eat and those to avoid. I take the guess work out of eating healthy, so that you’re body can ultimately heal and achieve your goals! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, if you’re confused about what to eat in the New Year, it might be time to work with someone who can give you the answers you’re looking for! 😉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Christmas may have quickly come and gone, but thes Christmas may have quickly come and gone, but these Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites are here to stay 🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’ve sworn off sweets in the new year, can I ask you WHY?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What if I told you it’s possible to eat your favorite foods (yes, even dessert) while still reaching your goals and healing your body?!?!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sugar is necessary. Carbs are necessary. Fat is necessary. If anyone tells you otherwise, WALK THE OTHER WAY.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the new year, stop committing to restrictive diets that deliver short term results. Instead, commit to healing your body, learning along the way, and enjoying REAL, delicious foods!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
