This week, Cascade Ice is “Kickin’ It” with Brandy, “Girl on Fire.” Brandy is the blogger behind Not So Average Mama, the blog without a niche and photographer for Loudmouth Photography. She lives with a degenerative neurological disease and healthy living is extremely important to her. Continue reading to learn more!
Why is “Healthy Living” important to you?
I have a degenerative neurological disease called CRPS (sometimes known as RSD). It is very important that I take care of myself to lessen the effects of the disease.
Who are your “Healthy Living” role models and why?
I look up to anyone who has a struggle and fights through it. They are all my role models!
What is your go-to healthy meal when you are short on time?
When I am short on time, I make a loaded salad with vegetables, fruits and nuts!
Do you have any tips for families who want to make some healthy lifestyle changes?
Focus on one small change and one goal at a time! Every step you take towards living a healthy live is progress. You can’t give up!
Are there any foods that you consider to be off-limits completely?
This is hard. I believe MOST things are okay in moderation. But that doesn’t mean it is good for your body! I would have to say I consider fast food restaurants off limits. I try to stick to a RAW foods diet, but occasionally have cooked foods, meat and dairy.
In addition to eating right, do you have any other tips to share on overall wellness?
Sleep is something I desperately need. But due to the pain I experience with RSD, I do not get enough. I know I need more sleep! I believe exercise is crucial for a good night’s sleep. I chose something fun such as Roller Derby!
What is your favorite Cascade Ice flavor and why? 
So far Lemonade Cascade Ice is my favorite, but I haven’t tried them all yet!

We had the pleasure of talking with Jennifer Medeiros for this week’s edition of “Kickin’ It With Cascade Ice.” Jennifer is a healthy living advocate, popular Mommy blogger and owner of the Makobie Scribe website. Read her healthy living tips, below!
Why is “Healthy Living” important to you?
Healthy Living is important to me because it improves the quality of your life and the life of your family. With a greater quality of life comes happiness, and isn’t happiness all we strive for in life?
Who are your “Healthy Living” role models and why?
My Uncle and Grandma have been eating healthy, organically and preservative-free for over 40 years. They started before living healthy was even popular. It was definitely a serious commitment!
What is your go-to healthy meal when you are short on time?
I like to grab raw fruit and veggies when I’m short on time.
Do you have any tips for families who want to make some healthy lifestyle changes?
Make one change at a time. No matter how small the effort, it still counts! It’s the best way to start improving your life.
Are there any foods that you consider to be off-limits completely?
Celery! I never was and never will be a fan.
In addition to eating right, do you have any other tips to share on overall wellness?
Getting adequate sleep and regular exercise are very important. Even if you don’t have time for a full fitness routine, get up and walk a few laps around your house. It will help improve your overall wellness!
What is your favorite Cascade Ice flavor and why?
I love the Pina Colada mixer. I can drink it plain, with juice or with rum. I have never met a coconut I didn’t like.
