Apparently they changed up the tour and intro a bit to talk more about the program there and the classes available, and less about the benefits of wheatgrass. That part was a bummer, but the tour and intro presentation were still interesting. And the raw, vegan dinner was surprisingly good and, even more suprising, FILLING.

Seems like a lovely place to go if you need some serious, hard-core detoxing. For now, I’m going to stick to my wheatgrass shots at People’s and my daily REVV.

Of course, once vertigo and nausea forced me to give up my morning over-indulgence, life became very difficult. Baby didn’t seem to care that I had to forego my morning boost. She continued to make sure I was waking up at least a couple of times a night. (Not sure what this Night Owl did with my Angel that could knock out a 12 hour sleep at 3 months, but if she didn’t have such a sweet smile, she surely would be looking for another bed in a room far from mine.)

Giving up the overly caffeinated lattes solved my vertigo and nausea issue, but now my energy level was so low I had trouble even concentrating by lunchtime.

Seeing my blood-shot eyes and barely-functioning body one afternoon, my friend reminded me about REVV. And he was right. REVV was what I needed, without being too much. The fact that I can easily and simply control the amount of the boost of energy I need is fantastic. Starting with two wafers, I can chew an extra wafer or two depending on how comtatose I’m feeling.

Best thing about REVV? It’s totally organic and good for you. The main ingredient is wheatgrass. Brilliant solution for me, actually. I’ve been trying to talk myself into liking wheatgrass for years because of it’s reputation for unsurpassed health benefits, but I’ve just never been able to become a fan. REVV‘s unique mint chocolate flavoring makes the tablets surprisingly edible. They’ll never put Godiva out of business, but the flavoring definitely makes the tablets easy to eat. (Note to REVV, if anyone from the company happens to be reading, please develop a couple other flavor choices. Ironically, I think a cappuchino flavor would work nicely, as well as a fruit or fruit mix.)

Additionally, if your looking for a healthier alternative to some of the over-caffeinated, high-sugar energy drinks, go “get REVVed“!
