While the long months of Winter may be all about layering up and staying cozy at home by the fire, now that the birds are chirping and the sun is shining, it’s time to get moving! Turn to these high-energy eats to help amp up your daily routine — and put a little “spring” in your step.

Lately, there’s been a lot of talk about clean eating (there is even a magazine dedicated to the movement!). But, if you’re anything like us, you may be a bit fuzzy on the deets. To help, we did a little research to get the real 411 on how to eat healthier. 

Sometimes, the best things for our well-being may seem a little bit obscure. Case in point: garlic. Besides warding off vampires, it also packs a ton of health-boosting power – which we think is worth a little stinky breath!

Friday marks the start of American Heart Month, and in honor of spreading awareness of heart disease and its designated color, red, we at Food Republic would love to share our fave heart-healthy red foods.  Dig in for better health!

Some kitchen tools are more useful than others: When it comes to owning your own personal juicer, this couldn’t be truer! We’re not just talking utility in the kitchen sense...no, we’re talking in the whole body sense! With a juicer, you can start yourself on a regimen of healthy, homemade juices that may help alleviate just about any health issue (and lose some lbs in the process!) So, kick off the New Year with a new routine by making delicious juices and “lighten up!”
