Real Food Fridays #49 Link Up & Giveaway

Hello and Welcome to REAL Food Friday!
I'd like to thank all of the conscious bloggers who followed the guidelines and
shared REAL FOOD recipes and organic gardening and posts. Thank you for sharing!

We have a very special giveaway today. Our very own co-host Joyce @ It's Your Life
is offering YOU a chance to win CRAMP BARK from Mountain rose Herbs

From Joyce:

Mountain Rose Herbs has agreed to give away a 1 ounce jar of Cramp Bark extract worth $9.25. Cramp Bark’s name speaks for itself, it is used to relieve menstrual cramps, muscle cramps, threatened miscarriage, early labor, labor, high blood pressure, spasmodic coughs, irritable bowel syndrome, and urinary pain.

I have used the capsules for menstrual cramps two months in a row, and it really works. For using the extract one should use 20 drops every hour, as needed. For best results it is good to start taking a day or two before you start menstruating, if you are regular.

Avoid if allergic to aspirin, in small children, using a blood thinner, using medicine for high blood pressure, could aggravate tinnitus. Always consult a health professional before using any herb. This information is strictly for educational purposes only.

The giveaway is open from 7-13-14 until 8-9-14.

In case you missed "What is Real Food" here's a recap...

I know "Real" food may not seem like as much fun as the sugary, chemically, DIY recipes out there on the internet. This is why REAL Food Friday is so unique. This is the place to share your unprocessed, gmo-free, locally grown and/or fair trade posts.

We are trying to make a difference 1 recipe at a time.

It's great to be back, missed all the great posts from this link up.

Love this Cherry Cheesecake Ice Cream from Sandi's Allergy Free Recipes. 

She may have failed, but she learned a lesson Say Cheese, or not! from Making Our Life Sustainable. 

I love the bravery of Family, Health, Home who let us in her fridge in her post Take a look inside My Healing Real Food Fridge.  

If your post includes items like *margarine, *granulated sugar, *food dye, packaged baking mixed with ingredients that you cannot pronounce (betty crocker, duncan hines, pillsbury) then it WILL be deleted.


Here's a great reference from Food Myths:

Link up your Real Food posts! Processed and "junk food" posts will be deleted.
The party runs from Thursday at 7pm EST through Monday at Noon.
