Nutrition Fact Day 30:
Quinoa is loaded with antioxidants & phytonutrients which regulate blood sugar. This superfood is easily digestible and a great source of protein and fiber!
Cooking Tip: Check out my very own recipe for Cran-Apple Quinoa which is featured on GoGo Quinoa ! http://gogoquinoa.com/recipes/main-dishes/cran-apple-quinoa/
Nutrition Fact Day 29: Good ol' H2O!
Water is one of the healthiest things that you can feed to your body. It helps with the absorption of nutrients into vital organs and also protects vital organs. It feeds cells with nutrients & oxygen and moisturizes the air in lungs. It also helps to regulate body temperature and moisturizes joints. It is the most natural “detox” for your body.
Cooking Tip: Rather than sautéing your leafy green veggies, boil some water & steam them. This method will add water instead of removing water.
Nutrition Fact Day 28:
Squash contains many nutrients such as folate, vitamins A & C, maganese, & magnesium which all fight against cardiovascular disease! Cooking Tip: Turn your veggies into "pasta" by using spaghetti squash as noodles!
Nutrition Fact Day 27:
Garlic has been proven to protect against heart disease. Ajoene, an antioxidant found in garlic can prevent clotting & therefore can reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes. Allicin is another property found in garlic that has been shown to lower blood pressure. Garlic can also lower LDL cholesterol and raise HDL cholesterol and is an anti-inflammatory agent. Cooking Tip: Sauté 2 cloves of garlic with 1tbs. Extra Virgin Olive Oil on low heat with a veggie of your choice, for a healthy & easy side dish.
Nutrition Fact Day 26:
Omega-3’s play an important role in the overall wellness of your body. The presence of Omega-3’s can help to reduce inflammation, cut elevated triglyceride levels (blood fat), lower the risk of heart disease and rheumatoid arthritis, boost mood and reduce symptoms of depression, improve lung function & therefore reduce asthma, and also reduce the symptoms of ADHD! The daily recommended measure of Omega-3’s consumption is approximately 4grams. Obtain this dosage by taking supplements, or do so through eating natural foods that are rich in this fatty acid, such as: Tuna, Salmon, Cod, Cod Liver Oil, Walnuts, Scallops, Tofu, Flax Seeds, Shrimp, Soybeans, Grass-fed Beef and Halibut.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Nutrition Fact Day 17: Cabbage is very rich in iodine, which helps with proper functioning of the brain & nervous system. It is also rich in fiber, vitamin C, and sulphur.
Nutrition Fact Day 16:
Apples are full of soluble fiber. In fact, one medium-sized apple yields 4g of fiber. This soluble fiber is linked to decreased cholesterol levels too! So in addition to being satiating and therefore promoting weight-loss, they also are heart healthy! Cooking Tip: I like to use apples whenever I cook with pork. They naturally moisten and flavor the pork which can otherwise be dry and bland.
