Missy's Review of Genuine Health's Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+ and Giveaway! Ends 3/15/18 @GenuineHealth @DisruptiveMS @Onwildwingz

** Missy's Views and Savings Clues was not monetarily compensated for this review, I was provided with Genuine Health's Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+  for review, however, my views and opinions are my own and based on my or our experience with a product or service.


I am currently reviewing another Genuine Health product for you as they were so kind in sending me a few of their products for gut health to try out and they are even sponsoring a giveaway so 1 lucky winner can give their Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+ a try as well.

Now as many of you know, I’ve had digestive issues throughout my life as well. I was diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer when I was 9 yrs old, and with Diverticulitis when I was in my teens.

So, as you can imagine I am, not one of those people who can just eat anything they want and there are times when I “pay with gut pain” so to speak if I do. So, I’ve learned long ago to just listen to my body about what and how much of something I eat.

I'm a Flexitarian, I try to eat balanced, stay hydrated, plus I Juice fast from time to time (I recently did a week-long one), and I also regularly take probiotics, as this is what works for me.

My gut health can be a fine line as not having gut issues or when I am having gut issues and eating can be pretty painful, which can make it easy for me to slip back to my old ways or the very least restrictive eating.

So the fact that I enjoy juicing as I really like how my body feels when I juice,  it honestly feels nourished, plus it seems to give me a bit of a boot to my energy!  

What I don't like the cleanup and honestly I don't often have the time to make my own juice nor the space to store all the produce, so a product like Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+  is a great way to get your fruits and vegetables in.





Even when I am at my fittest I have still never managed to get in the daily recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables, so for me juicing is a great way to try!

Now I personally enjoy green juices, but I know they aren't for everyone and one thing I did notice about the Genuine Health's Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+, well at least with the flavor I have which is the Orange Ginger, I found it to be an easy flavor to drink!

Now if your new to green or superfoods style juices, this would be a nice and easy introduction as, it is not only tasty, it mixes well with water, juice as well as milk of choice or even blended in a smoothie or protein shake or as I call it lazy day mixer the blender bottle!

Now I can't speak as to what the other flavors are like but, the Orange Ginger has an Orange fruity taste, but not fake flavor, more like fresh ripe sweet orange, but not too sweet and it has a slight chocolate finish, which I had to go back and look at the ingredients, somehow I missed it, but it does have Organic Cocoa Seed in it which lends to the slight chocolaty finish.

Normally I can easily taste Stevia in products and I don't notice it at all in this and though this does have it's fair share of greens, it also has a nice selection of fruits as well, so this really is much more than a typical "green juice", plus it's without that earthy, greenie (you know what I mean, lol) flavor.

Oh, another thing I've noticed, unlike with some of the other "Superfood or Green Juice" type of products, this one didn't cause any stomach discomfort and I've tried many and many have!  

Yes, I know much like I am with protein powders I am a bit of a Goldilocks when it comes to my juices and much like protein powders I have tried many and ended up trying only once and never touch them again!  lol    

However, I did find that Genuine Health's Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+  was tasty and really easy to drink so I will be finishing the container! 

Did you know that diet, toxins, antibiotics and stress (yes stress) all affect our gut health?  If so, what have you tried that helps you with your gut health?

BRUNCH WITH JENNIE-O

***Sponsored Post: As you all know I’m a Jennie-0 Switch Circle Blogger and throughout the year I’ll be sharing many great recipes featuring products. I’ve been a Jennie-O consumer long before I became a Jennie-O Switch Circle Blogger and we continue to enjoy their quality products year after year.





Hey Darlins,

Thank you for stopping by

Today I am bringing you Brunch Cups/Egg Muffins. 



Brunch Cups/Egg Muffins are not only tasty but are great for family meals, get together and they’re a great way to use up produce in your refrigerator, plus they make your meal a bit more special! 

I’ve made many of these and have used all sorts vegetables, even leftover roasted vegetables, cheeses, meats, even meatless and they always turn out yummy! 


Plus, let’s be honest these are freaking cute!  Lol


Though these ones are not made with any kind of crust, I have made these with shredded Sweet Potato, shredded Potato, refrigerator Biscuit and Crescent Rolls.







The ingredients I used for these ones includes:

1 package of Jennie-O All Natural Turkey Sausage, that I browned before adding to egg mixture (please make sure you pre-cook prior to adding to mixture as this is not a fully cooked meat)

6 eggs (I used large organic free range, but I have also made with extra-large, even brown eggs, liquid egg whites and even egg substitute)

1/4 Cup of Milk, Half and Half, Rice Milk or for a different flavor Coconut Milk (which is really tasty if you add Sweet Potato and well-drained Pineapple)

1 Cup of grated Cheese, I used the 4 Cheese Italian Blend with Asiago, but I’ve also used Brie, Munster, Gouda as well as Vegan Parm (with the Vegan Parm I did add ¼ Tsp of Nutritional Yeast).

For seasonings, I used ¼ tsp of each: Pink Sea Salt, fresh Ground Pepper, Smoked Paprika, minced Garlic from a jar and dried Chives.

For vegetables, I used 1 lb. of cleaned Asparagus that I snapped into about 1-inch pieces, but I also added ¼ of dried Spinach too.

Other vegetables I’ve used in the past, Mushrooms, roasted Brussel Sprouts, Zucchini, Sundried Tomatoes, Butternut Squash, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Leeks (use your favorites)

First I pre-cooked and lightly browned my Jennie-O All Natural Turkey Sausage

While the sausage was cooking I pre-heated my oven to 350 F and beat eggs, added milk, seasonings, dried Spinach to eggs as well as about ¼ of the Cheese.

Now I am lucky to have a muffin pan that has worked great on its own, but some muffin pans require that you pre-treat the pan with a bit of Olive, Avocado or Coconut Oil or Baking Pan Spray

I’ve never made these with Muffin Cup Liners or Silicone Muffin Cup Liners, so I’m sorry I can’t say how well these would work.

Once the Turkey Sausage is all cooked, it was time to assemble!

Ok, first I add about 1 Tablespoon (could be a little less or more I honestly didn’t measure) of the Turkey Sausage to each of the Muffin Cups, then I sprinkled a bit of Cheese into each cup, then I added 2 pieces of Asparagus to each cup, then topped them to about half full with the Egg mixture and finished off each cup with 2 more pieces of Asparagus as well as sprinkled the remaining Cheese on each.

Once assembled I popped them in the pre-heated oven on the middle rack for 20-25 mins (I check at 20 mins and mine were lightly golden at about 23 mins, but ovens can vary)

I let ours cool for about 5 mins and they can be served on their own, with other Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch items or even on top of a salad!


Have fun with it and enjoy!

Missy's Review of Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health 50 Billion CFU Daily Care Mood Probiotic and Giveaway! Ends 2/22/18 @GenuineHealth @DisruptiveMS

* Missy's Views and Savings Clues was not monetarily compensated for this review, I was provided with Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health 50 Billion CFU Mood Daily Care Probiotic for review, however, my views and opinions are my own and based on my or our experience with a product or service.



I am currently reviewing another Genuine Health's Advance Gut Health Probiotics, their new 50 billion CFU Daily Care Mood formula and seeing that many of us may have over-done it during the holidays or are looking to get healthier or maybe like me you've taken them for years.

Having struggled with an eating disorder for most of my life, I’ve had digestive issues throughout my life as well. I was diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer when I was 9 yrs old, and with Diverticulitis when I was in my teens.

So, as you can imagine I am, not one of those people who can just eat anything they want and there are times when I “pay with gut pain” so to speak if I do. So, I’ve learned long ago to just listen to my body about what and how much of something I eat.

I'm a Flexitarian, I try to eat balanced, stay hydrated, plus I Juice fast from time to time (I just did a week-long one), and I also regularly take probiotics, as this is what works for me.

My gut health can be a fine line as not having gut issues or when I am having gut issues and eating can be pretty painful, which can make it easy for me to slip back to my old ways or the very least restrictive eating.

Though I've used probiotics for years and know they are beneficial. What I didn't know about was that there are several types of Probiotics, before trying Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health Probiotics the first time (different formula), I had only known about 3 strains of them as most of the Probiotics I’ve tried merely have 1-3 strains.

After using Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health 50 Billion CFU Daily Care Mood Probiotic which has 15 strains I've actually feel the difference in the way I feel as well as how my gut feels, to test this out I went back on my old brand for about 4 days as that was all I could handle! Wow, what a difference, in just the 4 days that I had gone back to my old brand, no change in diet, I was bloated, had indigestion like you wouldn't believe, I was nauseous,  and my gut wasn't happy!

I selected the "Mood formula" since we live in a state that has all 4 seasons and in the Winter, we get some snow and a lot of rain, which can make for some blah days!


When Genuine Health asked if I wanted to try out another of their Probiotics that I had not tried before I happily accepted, as I had really liked the other formula of theirs the 15 Billion CFU Daily Care, after all a healthy gut is a happy gut which makes for a happy me as well!



Since using the Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health Probiotics I have found that I have a bit more energy, not dragging my booty by early evening, and have very few digestive issues, though I have only been on this formula for 2 weeks, and it is not quite time for my monthly diverticulitis flare up so I will continue to use to see if the results continue.


Your gut health can affect so many things and you wouldn’t even know it. When your gut health is off, your immune system can be off, your skin can be affected, your sleep, as well as your energy levels and even regularity, can all be affected.


With our busy lives, it can be so tough to make ourselves a priority.  So, we need to find the little things that can help, like a bit of extra sleep, a little time to decompress from our day, a bit of Yoga, laugh, enjoy a breath of fresh air, appreciate the little things in life as they are often bigger than you know and talk to your doctor and see if a supplement like Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health Probiotic is right for you.

Genuine Health's Advanced Gut Health Probiotics are also available in 3 new formulas Woman's Daily, Mood and UTI.
