I'm always taken aback by all the knowledge Dr. Rhonda Patrick holds in her head. She digs deep and fleshes out the through tons of research. One of her top recommendations is eating seafood. Unfortunately, I have a seafood intolerance. When I eat it, I begin to get a rash that starts in my arms and depending on how much I eat, it spreads from there. I know many of you in Sweat Nation love seafood, and since I take my role as a wellness curator seriously. I want to help you o

Chia seeds are a delicious and nutrition-packed treat. We use them all the time here in the Sweat Nation Kitchen. Chia seeds, you can think of them as mini powerhouses packing more calcium than milk(you want less dairy anyways), more antioxidants than blueberries(excellent add on), and more Omega-3 than Salmon. Their texture can make your treat interesting, they're so versatile and are a great protein-packed addition to many recipes because of their ability to thicken and gel

Butternut squash in this recipe is awesome, but if you have any other type of winter squash I encourage you to use what you have on hand–pumpkin, acorn, kabocha!
