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.

Cascade Ice is “Kickin’ It” with Jenna Jackson from the Jackson Five Family Blog. Jenna blogs about about her family’s daily adventures, great give-a-ways, fashion and more. Read on to learn Jenna’s healthy living advice for the whole family.

Why is “Healthy Living” important to you?

Healthy Living is important to me because I have a family to take care of! We have two very active little boys and it’s important to be healthy and teach them healthy habits.

Who are your “Healthy Living” role models and why?

I love Jillian Michaels. I have several of her DVDs, and I do them in my living room. I love how she’s helped so many people get in shape. Plus, her rockin’ body gives me inspiration!

What is your go-to healthy meal when you are short on time?

We love wraps. They are quick and easy to make and you can add many different ingredients for a quick meal. Our favorite wraps include grilled chicken, lettuce and a little cheese.

Do you have any tips for families who want to make some healthy lifestyle changes?

Get outside and have fun! Take walk, hike a trail or ride bikes in the park as a family. Families should have fun together while being active!

Are there any foods that you consider to be off-limits completely?

We don’t make anything off-limits but instead consume them in moderation.

In addition to eating right, do you have any other tips to share on overall wellness?

Drink lots of water, get enough sleep and try to be active every day.

What is your favorite Cascade Ice flavor and why?

I love Lemonade Cascade Ice and the other lemonade flavors because they are perfect for summer!
