Recently I heard that a family member in her early 50s was being seen by a doctor for DVT and that she was hoping that there was a more natural way of dealing with it than the medications her doctor was prescribing. When I had digested this scrap of family ''information,'' I thought about my own lax position (denial, really) and how it would make sense for me to make some changes in my life while I still have some shreds of health and potential fitness.

You can add the sauce to the sprouts and mix, or use it as a sort of dipping sauce for the rolls. I mixed them all up together, and rolled it up into the little collard pieces. It was yummy and satisfying. SEE OTHER KETO FLEX RECIPES HERE
