I speak with musicians, singers, and songwriters almost daily and many are wondering what they can do to make more money with their music other than just gigging more or selling more albums.

Clean Eating Online -> http://www.cleaneatingonline.com/

As an alternative to "dieting" my wife and I have just started "eating clean" instead. Basically it just means that you follow these rules instead of a specific diet:

  • Eat primarily non processed foods. If it comes out of a box, don't eat it. If it comes from the earth, eat it
  • Eat six times a day. This is to keep your metabolism fired up and it keeps you from getting too hungry
  • No alcohol or sodas. Drink lots of water and/or herbal unsweetened tea
  • Never miss a meal
  • Combine lean protein and complex carbs at every meal
  • Avoid all saturated and trans fats
  • Eat fresh fruits and vegetables

  Check out the site for more info. Even if you can't stay strictly within the rules (no alcohol? ...)  the  closer you can get the better off you will be and the better you will feel. We created the site to spread the word... Here's to your health!
