Still True Today

The other three-quarters keep your doctor alive.

Chia Revisited

This entry is a re-posting of an early
bit of information about chia seeds.

Also re-posted are the links.

CHIA:

Chia seed is the richest non-marine whole food source of Omega-3 and dietary fiber currently known to man and nutritionally superior to flax and soy. (Who knew?)

Chia seed promotes cardiovascular health, assists joint function & mobility, improves digestion & natural detoxification, and supports healthy weight loss:

Healthy No-Flour Crackers and Five-Minute Hummus

I joined Pinterest the other day. I recommend you check it out.

I found both recipes there and they were both easy to make. They are tasty, too. :-)

The Endurance Cracker recipe (contains: sesame seed, chia seeds, pepita seeds, sunflowers seeds) as well as the 5-Minute Spicy Hummus can be found on my "Healthy Eating" Board at Pinterest.

Dying to Have Known

I just watched the documentary,  Dying to Have Known.

In this documentary, filmmaker Steve Kroschel went on a 52-day journey to find evidence to the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy – a long-suppressed natural cancer cure.

I found it informative. Maybe you will, too.

Forks Over Knives. I watched this documentary again (Netflix instant play). I highly recommend this important film on nutrition. I have linked the website: http://www.forksoverknives.com/.

 Dr. Lance Dreher has sound advice (re: pH/Alkalinity).

Please take a look at Solutions by Dr. Fitness if you are interested in keeping your body healthy. I have posted the link before, but I feel the need to post it again.

Saint Patrick's Day

   

I thought I'd post a few links for Saint Patrick Day's recipes with some healthy substitutions since March 17th is right around the corner. (I was able to open these links without membership or registration.)

 I have included a link about beer 'benefits' and history,  some fun facts about Saint Patrick's Day and a link to crafts.
