PaleoPro Featured on Nutri Savvy Health!

Lauren O’Connor a Los Angeles based registered dietitian with Nutri Savvy Health created a guilt-free Pumpkin Pie featuring PaleoPro Sweet Potato Recovery Powder:

What is Healthy Holiday Eating? Its enjoying a heart-healthy balance with a side of indulgence. That means including plenty of vegetables! With Thanksgiving coming around, that sounds nearly impossible. My hubby calls it the “butter” holiday. And it’s generally filled with more starch and sugar than vegetable. But you can make it happen! Read on for learn tips on staying healthy during the “holiday feast”.

Treating yourself to cranberry sauce or a slice of pecan pie is not off-limits, so long as you keep it all in perspective. And enjoying your Grandma’s famous Bourbon Sweet Potatoes is certainly okay, just keep small (and don’t go for seconds). It’s not about avoidance, but how you eat. And when you can choose a yummy treat with little to no added sugars, even better! Try a slice of this guilty-free Pumpkin Pie. It’s creamy, full of flavor and satisfaction! It’s got 11g protein and 4g fiber!
