How do you view your food ?
I was eight years young when I first found out about a plant based diet. Living in Virginia with my father and my step mother I got to eat both plant base and meat. My father then started to feed me veggie patties, and don't get me wrong sometimes they don't really taste good, well maybe now they would taste amazing since your taste does change, but back then they didn't taste good coming from an 8 year old kid. After my time was up in Virginia I then headed over to Jamaica which I really do miss. As a kid it was the coolest thing I've ever done and had an amazing experience. But to get back on track I started going back to eating meat again. I ate aki, dumpling, salt fish, and plantain as well as fish, curry goat, rice, beans, beef cheese and chicken patties. So yeah my diet shifted. I was healthy. I could only recall getting sick one time. As it was time to leave Jamaica my diet shifted again. Going back with my step mom I still ate meat but I was also eating plant based. I don't know but Virginia and Jamaica are always calling for my name or more like my spirit. I feel like the land and the nature is within me like connected or as if we are magnets. I was about ten when I came back to the US and I got connected with nature as well as getting some sun. I really connected with the universe during those times and eating both diets made me really energetic. I was always outside with a group of people either playing some type of game, riding bikes, skateboards, chasing deer and playing manhunt. And now to think of it, maybe that's why I had energy and was in good shape. It's because of how I was taking care of my body and eating. When I came to Pennsylvania my diet went south. I was going out to eat every other Friday , and eating processed and junk food. I did this for about 8 years straight with having a cooked meal once in a while. I gained weight and was very insecure about how the shape of my body looked. I would always ask my mom how to lose weight and she told me to do sports. Now I didn't listen to her the first time. As I moved up grad levels out here I started to get more exercise by just playing and being active. Recess for school in 4th grade showed me how fast I was , like crazy speed. 7th grade started playing football all the way to my senior year. As I got to varsity I got injured a lot or cramped up due to me having a poor diet. Not hydrating gave me a terrible performance and eating processed food killed my endurance. Suffering knee injuries, swollen ankles, and hamstring issues put me out for some good parts of my career. The summer preparing for my senior year I was in the best of shape and not even at my peak. I also hydrated more which made me perform at a level where I'm able to push myself. For that whole summer I went vegan and vegetarian all the way till march. When I started track is when I started to eat meat again but not how I used to. Actually eating cooked meals with it but also eating out. When June was at its end is when I started to get back into plant based as well as keeping track of how much water I drink. I've started running, learned how to jump rope and found the love and passion for it, started my youtube channel that has to do with health, herbs, fitness, herbal supplements such as vegan protein powders and a vegan diet. To see my content go check out my instagram @jerimiahantoni and youtube @sonjerri. Also you can email me if you have any questions i will put them in my videos as well to also pass the info to others. One of the most amazing things is how people go from obese to being healthy and in good shape. Especially for the people who have the balls to face their insecurities and go to the gym. I respect that because I see that they are trying to make change. My journey continues and I'm thrilled to see what comes along. If you watched my videos or checked my instagram you probably have seen what i look like. I encourage you to try a plant based diet if you wanna see change. It changed me for the better mentally, spiritually and physically. I'm shooting for longevity and staying with a plant based diet. I can't wait to see how many people I motivate into changing their lifestyle just by going plant based. It's just something that is genuine. Hearing that you impact someone in a positive way is like getting gifted with 777 million dollars. I really encourage you guys to try a plant based diet for about 30 days and see your results. Don't be afraid to email me @[email protected]. If you have any questions and as always stay blessed, and always be you

This plant contains potassium iodide which helps to dissolve phlegm causing colds, allergies, asthma, flus and infections from the body.

Benefits of Sarsaparilla
What is sarsaparilla and where does it come from ?? sarsaparilla also known as smilax amata, is a herb that is located in warm areas such as the caribbean, south america, south of america and mainly in jamaica. This plant has a wide variety of health benefits that can cure illnesses by stimulating certain areas of the body. The two main purposes this plant has is to serve as a hormone balancer and a detox for the body. So without further ado let's get into those two topics. The world that we live in today could have a negative effect on your or someone's lifestyle causing depression, stress, anxiety, insomnia, and other underlying issues. Over time this could cause a hormonal imbalance in the body and then affect other body organ systems causing the body, mind, and spirit to be unbalanced. Remember, hormones have to do with your emotions and from being in a toxic environment for a long period of time it could cause a hormonal imbalance, and this is where depression and other negative emotions fall into place. So how can I balance my hormones to better my lifestyle?? Simple, give your body what it needs and sarsaparilla is perfect for the job. Being rich in trace minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, aluminum, zinc, and chromium that are key to mental, physical, and emotional function. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin which is a protein in red blood cells that move oxygen from the lungs to the brain and other parts of the body (which is important for brain function) and is also good for growth and development in the body which your hormones are responsible for. About 3 million men in the United states experience some form of erectile dysfunction. If you do not know what erectile dysfunction is, let me tell you in a simple way. It's when a man has trouble getting turned on or getting his penis hard. Sarsaparilla is know to increase your sex drive as well as boost your testosterone. From personal experience drinking sarsaparilla tea made my sex drive go through the roof, and you might think im sugar coating this but i guarantee you i am not. Just add some sarsaparilla herb with tea and within an hour you will see how much your sexual energy will shoot through the roof, it really works wonders and as you get older your sex drive might decrease depending on your lifestyle and health so i advise learning, experimenting and trying out sarsaparilla with your partner. While it does boost your sex drive it also gives your hormones youthful characteristics promoting energy, healthy glowing skin, and legivity. If you're having problems with your kidneys or have kidney failure, taking sarsaparilla may help as it cleans the blood and gets rid of any waste that is built up in the kidneys. It serves as a diaphoretic and a diuretic causing the toxins in your body to get flushed out from sweating and urine. I recommend drinking the tea and a gallon of water to stay hydrated throughout the day so the detox can be a lot easier. We can’t forget that this herb has other medicinal properties. It is used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as psoriasis, treating arthritis in the body, aiding in gut health and digestion, heart health, immune boost and flavonoids that help the body perform more efficiently. The saponins in the herb help fight off cancer, fungus and bacteria that causes damage to the body. Sarsaparilla serves as a sleep promoter so if you have trouble falling asleep take a cup of sarsaparilla before bed to aid with sleep. The herb can be taken in many forms like tea, tinctures or grinded up into powders that mix with a wide variety of foods. Sarsaparilla is the go to herb if you have any complications with any underlying conditions.
