If you’ve been rocking with the Green News Guide then you might have read previous reviews about other food delivery services such as Cook Unity, Mosaic or Gobble. Tempo was originally launched by Home Chef in October of 2023. I found their meal selection process to be super easy and the website was very user friendly. Customers can select the subscription of their choice based on the number of meals desired on a weekly basis. One can opt for a quantity of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 meals per week at $11 per serving. Ordering & Delivery process Tempo’s meals usually feature a protein (beef, chicken, fish, shrimp) that is usually paired with a vegetable medley.

Last year, the Dr. Oz show spearheaded a 21 day vegan challenge experiment to examine the effects that going meat free had on people’s bodies. Four meat and dairy loving women participated in the challenge. Before they began the challenge, the women were ordered to go to bio reference labs for blood work to determine their initial blood pressure, weight and cholesterol levels.
The women experienced some challenges as the foods that they usually ate were swapped out for a meatless substitute. One woman had an issue with the taste of the dairy free half and half that she started using in her coffee while another experienced a challenge preparing food separately for her family who are meat eaters. By week three, the women began experiencing changes in their bodies rather quickly. One woman experienced significantly less aches and pain, more energy and weight loss.
Dr. Oz discussed the results of the women’s health markers after completing the challenge and they were pretty significant. One woman lost a total of 10 lbs. Three out of the four women’s blood pressure improved. Three women also experienced lowered “bad cholesterol” levels. Dr. Oz interviewed two of the women who participated in the experiment. They initially expressed excitement and shock over their results and were very happy that they took part in the challenge. One was even eager to do it all over again!
Dr. Oz then stated that when he originally started his show, folks were surprised to learn that they could change hypertension levels solely by the food that they ate.
Later on in the episode, environmental reporter, Paul Greenberg confessed that plant based eating saved his life. He noted that after turning 50, his cholesterol was through the roof and he decided that he had to do something about it! He embarked on a plant-based diet for a year and his results were astounding. He cut out all animal products including dairy, meat, and etc. Greenburg's blood pressure went down 20 points and his bad cholesterol went down 50 points. He also lost 10 lbs and had a great deal of newfound energy. Greenberg achieved all of this without taking a single medication.
How does weight loss happen for people who embark on whole food plant based diets? The truth is that people who follow plant-based diets eat less, snack less and feel more full because foods tend to be high in fiber. You’ll experience feelings of satiety due to the amount of fiber in plant based or meat substitutes. When you feed your body the nutrients it needs, it will feel more full than if you had chowed down on foods baring empty calories or that lack proper nutrients. Greenberg said that he has since become a pescatarian and adopted fish back into his diet for omega 3 and B12 benefits. If you are vegan or vegetarian, it helps to incorporate a B12 and omega 3 supplement into your daily diet.

The FDA has moved to finally ban Red Dye No. 3 from use in food and drugs in America. Red Dye No. 3 was first determined to be a cancer causing color additive almost 30 years ago. Studies conducted using labs rats found that they became inflicted with the disease after consuming large amounts of Red dye No. 3. Thirty years ago, the FDA officially banned Red Dye No. 3 from use in cosmetics but left the door open for it to be used as a color additive in food and prescription drugs.

The Fenty Side Stick is a 3 in 1 edge styling tool. It was mentioned in a comprehensive review of Rihanna's hair line, however, I hadn't yet purchased it. I wanted to briefly compare The Side Stick to the type of edge brushes that are found in your average beauty store. The Side Stick arrived in a light orange box with the signature Fenty packaging and logo. On the back of the box, is a photo of the Side Stick. The photo on the back of the packaging is almost the same length as the Side Stick so the user can get a sense of the actual length of the product. When it is taken out of the package, the end piece needed to be snapped on. It's a nice rose chrome colored tail which makes for precise parting and creation of swooped styles. If any of you ladies love your 90s Aaliyah style swooped bangs, the Side Stick is going to get you right every time! It has a duo brush and comb head instead of being at opposite ends like an average edge brush and com...
1800 Tequila is a spirit brand that has managed to create a diamond made from Mexican tequila. Their tequila is made in Tequila, Mexico using a traditional distillation process extracted from blue Weber agave. 1800 Tequila is known for its flavored tequilas such as coconut and a ñejo , an expression with rich butterscotch and vanilla notes. 1800 Tequila has diverged from their usual route of tequila production to enter the luxury jewelry scene. The unique 5.5 carat diamond was unveiled at this year’s Met Gala whose theme was centered around the Black Dandy expressionist form. The diamond was crafted into a brooch designed by Jonathan Raksha and was worn by actress and vocalist, Janelle Monae. There was no other deserving person to wear this masterpiece as Monae has been somewhat of a new school pioneer of Dandy expressionism. The diamond was flanked in white gold within an inverted setting surrounded by smaller diamonds and also white sapphires. 1800 Tequila is always pushin...
