Following a vegan, gluten-free diet can be challenging, especially if you're trying to get enough protein to meet your nutritional needs. However, it's not impossible! Here's a sample meal plan that's high in protein, gluten-free, and vegan-friendly for clear, glowing skin.


Breakfast

  • Protein smoothie: Blend together 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop of vegan protein powder, 1/2 cup of frozen berries, and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.

  • Gluten-free vegan pancakes: Mix together 1 cup of gluten-free flour, 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 mashed banana, and 1 cup of almond milk. Cook on a non-stick skillet until golden brown on both sides.

Snack

  • Roasted chickpeas: Toss 1 can of chickpeas with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon of cumin. Roast in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Lunch

  • Quinoa salad: Cook 1 cup of quinoa according to package instructions. Mix with 1/2 cup of cooked black beans, 1 diced red bell pepper, 1 diced cucumber, 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup of diced red onion. Dress with a mixture of 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.

  • Gluten-free crackers with hummus: Choose a brand of gluten-free crackers that uses healthy whole grains like quinoa, brown rice, or millet. Serve with your favourite flavour of hummus.

Snack

  • Protein bar: Look for a vegan protein bar that's gluten-free and made with wholesome ingredients like nuts, seeds, and dried fruit.

Dinner

  • Lentil soup: Sauté 1 diced onion and 2 minced garlic cloves in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until softened. Add 1 cup of dried lentils, 4 cups of vegetable broth, 1 diced carrot, 1 diced celery stalk, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until lentils are tender.

  • Roasted vegetables: Toss your favourite vegetables (such as sweet potatoes, broccoli, and bell peppers) with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and your favourite seasonings (such as garlic powder, salt, and black pepper). Roast in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and caramelized.

Dessert

  • Chia pudding: Mix together 1/4 cup of chia seeds, 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or until thickened. Top with your Favourite fresh fruit or nuts.

There are thousands of items on the market to correct, fix, tune, replenish and change your skin forever. Marketed items promising to wipe away that acne with one wash or fix fine lines within one week. Some true, most of them false.


But have we ever asked what can we put inside our body to fix these concerns?


Glowtox has introduced three brand new teas that can help you with your stubborn sleeping habits, poor digestion and problematic skin. Each tea is formulated to target these issues by using natural and caffeine-free ingredients! Let’s take a look at what each tea represents and how amazing its ingredients are.


Sleep- Tea

For those of you who struggle with a good night's sleep, try this! Sleep tea is an amazing blend of lemon verbena, hibiscus, raspberry, lemon, apple and lemongrass. The taste is so subtle yet sweet, you can add ice and make a refresher before bed. No extra additives needed for this one! The raspberry gives it a sweetness on its own. Not only is it calming, but the lemon-infused in the tea helps with gut health, and a healthy gut means healthier skin.


Digest-Tea

Digest tea is great for any sufferers of upset tummies and bloating. One cup can instantly soothe any stomach frustrations. And again, the taste is amazing. This tea has a blend of ginger, peppermint, cardamom, lemon balm, fennel, burdock and licorice. Because of the strong agents to help aid and flush poor gut concerns, it also relieves the skin of congestion and acne flare-ups that show because of that.


Beaut- Tea

How great is it to drink a cup of tea but also knowing it’s helping your skin concerns? Beaut tea is formulated specifically for acne clients and anyone who wants to improve the quality of their skin. This tea is made up of a blend of turmeric, ginger, beet, pineapple, carrots and calendula. What makes this tea so special is the turmeric! Turmeric is such a great ingredient with anti-inflammatory properties. For many years people have been using turmeric as a face mask to heal their acne! A small amount steeped will get the flavour just right, because of the powerful flavours, this tea has a stronger taste. A little goes a long way!



All of these great teas are aesthetician-approved, vegan preservative and additive-free, organic and made in Canada!
