Staying Cool in the Summer Sun

by Cascade Ice on June 8, 2011

Most of us are excited to come out of our winter hibernation, buy new summer clothes and enjoy our favorite outdoor activities. One very important thing to remember is to stay hydrated and pay close attention to your body as the temperatures rise. Here are some tips from the American Heart Association that can help:

  • Drink plenty of water and fluids! If it’s hot out and you’re not working up a sweat, you may be dehydrated so drink up!
  • Sunburns stink! Always wear sunscreen with at least SPF 15 and remember to reapply every two hours.
  • Keep in mind that the sun is at its strongest between noon and 3 p.m., so head inside if it’s getting too hot.
  • Dress for the weather. Wear lightweight clothes like cotton, and use sunglasses to protect your eyes.

Here’s wishing you a wonderful, fun-filled Summer! Do you have any special summer tips? Share them below!


Is Gluten-Free Right for You?

by Cascade Ice on June 4, 2011

“Gluten-free” is a really popular phrase lately. Celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Gwyneth Paltrow claim to have cut gluten from their diets. So what’s the deal with gluten-free?

According to a recent article on CNN Health, nearly everyone falls somewhere on a spectrum of gluten intolerance. On one end of the spectrum is celiac disease, which is complete intolerance to gluten. The other end are those who have very small gluten sensitivities, but most people fall somewhere in between.

Has anyone cut gluten from their diet? Please share below!


Cascade Ice Gives ‘Good Day LA’ the Taste Test

by Cascade Ice on June 2, 2011

We had such a great time at Good Day LA on Memorial Day showing off our Cascade Ice Skinny Cocktail Mixers! We put our hosts to the test to see if they could tell the difference between our low calorie cocktails and the real thing. Needless to say, it was difficult to tell them apart!

All of our Skinny Cocktails are less than 90 calories when combined with alcohol. Most regular cocktails of the same amount are loaded with sugar and are often more than 500 calories! Cascade Ice Skinny Cocktail Mixers are a healthier alternative to regular cocktails and are delicious poolside treat.
