Bossa Nova


After a few weeks on Wordpress, I decided to move the blog site back to Blogger. Blogger seems a little more user friendly. I also decided to make the blog geared more toward lifestyle and less about party ideas and recipes. Hope you enjoyed the changes.
So last Monday I went to the doctor for my annual physical. It was horrible. Not only have I gained over 20 pounds in a year, but my blood glucose was a little high. It seems that my fondness of citrus vodka cocktails was not only thickening my waistline, but leading me down a road for potential diabetes. Damn I'm getting old!
My doctor recommended I lose a little weight and change my diet to get my sugar down. Four days out of the week I jog half a mile. My new diet consists of bran flakes, organic brown rice, and those vodka cocktails are being replaced with Acai berry cocktails.
There are a variety of Acai berry juices on the market, but I perfer Bossa Nova. Bossa Nova is an organic juice made of Acai berries, which grow high in the palms of the Brazilian rainforest. Acai berries are packed with more diease-fighting antioxidants than any other fruit on Earth. Unlike many other antioxidant juices, Bossa Nova tastes pretty good and less expensive than the Pom juices that usually sits next to on shelves.

You can find Bossa Nova in the refrigrated section of any major grocery retailers and the single serve juice section of most natural food stores.
