ABOUT THIS WEEKS MENU
What could be more perfect?? Our delivery day this week falls just two days before Valentine's Day!!
Just in time for you to order the perfect Valentine's Day dinner, beat the restaurant crowds, and impress that special someone, or even (and most importantly) yourself, by creating a romantic and ambient evening using the super sexy, strengthening, healthy, and beautiful menu that we have in store for you this week.
Among other fun and healthy items, this week's menu contains a sensual and creamy shiitake mushroom soup, a soup that contains all of the health promoting qualities and unique flavor of shiitake mushrooms. The Shiitake mushrooms are full of cholesterol lowering - artery unclogging properties. Why is this especially important on Valentine Day, besides for the obvious reasons? Because it will help to keep your blood circulation flowing freely so that it can get to all of your strategic organs, including, but not limited to, your heart!
That has got to be good for your love life, if you get my drift!
This menu also features a soba noodle and sea vegetable dish. This dish is particularly good for the liver, and a happy liver makes for a happy mood. When the liver is over burdened and congested, a person's mood generally becomes rather foul. So eat a lot of this dish, and feed it to any out of sorts loved ones as well! It will improve the health of their liver while at the same time improving their mood.
|
And the dessert this week is made with beautiful, heart healthy, red delicious apples. Have you ever noticed that red delicious apples are shaped like a 3-D heart?? We have!! As we lovingly cut and prepare the apples, we can't help but enjoy their unique heart like shape and color. We love the fact that this healthy dessert provides us with a way to indulge in the eroticism that a delicious dessert invokes, especially on Valentines Day, without the guilt, and without the sugar crash.
Who wants to end a perfect evening lethargically due to too much sugar??
Not us!!
We'd much rather end it with a delicious dessert.
Several of our "frisky" clients hinted around that we should make an aphrodisiac like menu this year for Valentines Day.
So we created an especially sexy menu for you. But the truth is, the foods we use here at Wholly Macro are such SUPER foods, that they are full of amorous properties every week of the year, although perhaps even more so this week.
Whatever the case, more aphrodisiac or not, it is all good!
And we had a lot of fun creating it.
We hope you enjoy eating it as much as we did creating it.

WEEKLY ARTICLE
The Love Molecule
Have you ever heard of Phenylethylamine??
PEA for short.
Also known as The Love Molecule!
PEA is an amino acid / neurotransmitter that is naturally produced in our brains.
When we are happy, excited, euphoric, and experiencing love, our brains produce MORE PEA.
It has been found that we can also introduce PEA into our bodies in an absorbable form via certain foods too. Such as sauerkraut, olives, and most fermented foods, butternut squash, miso, tempeh, fish, and wild green super foods.
Sea vegetables are among these wild green super foods.
Having sufficient amounts of PEA in your body can help alleviate depression, stabilize your mood, clarify your thoughts, and stimulate feelings of love and joy.
It is also thought that PEA directly contributes to increasing the quantity of dopamine in your brain. Dopamine is the feel good hormone, a natural opiate if you will, that we can tap into and facilitate our brain to release via exercise.
Perhaps you can find a way to fit some kind of fun and sexy form of "exercise" into your Valentines Day this year, thereby flooding your brain with natural "opiates"!!
|
If we care for our bodies and our brains properly, and feed them well, If we nurture them by being love and joy, by singing, dancing, laughing, and sharing, by helping others, by exercising, and by eating delicious and nutritious foods, especially foods like sea vegetables and other wild greens, we can stimulate our brains to release enough naturally occurring PEA that we feel good emotionally.
Our brains do aim to naturally produce PEA so that we feel good. And we all want to feel good, don't we? Please replace anger, resentment, inertia, and stress, (which all deplete the PEA in our brains), with the above happy and positive emotions and activities. By making the above our "norm", not an occasional "indulgence", we create a wonderful full circle of PEA charged feel good love for ourselves, and for the world that we, through our
entitlement to free will, choose to surround ourselves with.
True Freedom Is Health. True Health Is Freedom.
Fall In Love With Health and Positivity!
Feel good, not bad.
Saturate your brain with The Love Hormone every day, not just on Valentines Day.

"Dance when you're broken open. Dance if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you're perfectly free".

May health, happiness, and prosperity be your unavoidable natural state and your ongoing daily experience.
From our heart to yours.
Happy Valentine's Day to you all.

**Wholly Macro makes every attempt to maintain a totally vegan and allergen free kitchen cooking environment. We make every effort to avoid any type of cross contamination during food preparation. Most foods used in the Wholly Macro kitchen are not packaged, but instead are bought in the produce section or in bulk. But as you know, cross contamination is always a possibility, especially with bulk items. And in the few packaged foods that we do use, such as nut butters for example, it is common to find warnings on the manufacturer label stating that the item was processed in a plant that handles tree nuts, soy, wheat, dairy, gluten, shellfish, and so on.
Wholly Macro cannot be responsible for trace amounts of common food allergens that come from outside (packaged or bulk items), and therefore end up occurring within our prepared foods. Please use your own discretion in determining if our food is appropriate for your consumption, especially if you have severe food allergies.
We are always available to clarify any of the ingredients that we use, and assist you in your weekly selections, but we cannot keep track of your food allergies, sensitivities, likes, dislikes or preferences.

Here's some feedback from a consultation client..... " three years ago I discovered that I had breast cancer. I had heard of Macrobiotics years ago. I didn't understand the concept but immediately I knew that that would be the route that I would pursue. But where to go and who to see was the question. Thank God for reading the macrobiotic newsletter. For in the newsletter there was an article about Gayle Stolove. I just felt her strength and passion burn through the page that I was reading. I immediately made an appointment to see her and although I was still so frightened, I felt so comfortable talking with Gayle. Gayle guided me through the whole process. I thought that the macrobiotic way of life would be boring and just eating rice. Well, I love the foods that I eat and I just feel good about it all. You see, after the surgery, you are sort of left on your own.You have to make your own decisions, etc. Everyone gives you different advice as what to eat, what to do, etc. Doctors don't understand what the patient is going through nor do they understand what kind of diet they should follow. I adopted Gayle as my guardian angel. You can't find that with any nutritionist or doctor. I love receiving her weekly e-mailed newsletters. They are so full of wonderful knowledge and beautiful healthy recipes. Gayle is a remarkable human being. She truly cares for her clients and gives them her all, one hundred percent of the time. Gayle has been there and therefore she is so compassionate and dedicates her life to helping people like me....." a cancer survivor |
