For those of you new to the blog, I was formerly an obese and chronically malnourished food addict who has been completely set free from all food addictions and eating disorders; including anorexia, nutrient restrictive dieting, yo-yo dieting, and binge eating disorder as result of embracing the nutritarian lifestyle that’s described in Eat to Live and Eat for Health. Here is my transformation. It’s been hot and sunny in Indiana, and the tomatoes are ripening almost faster than I can pick them. This novice gardener is becoming addicted to growing vegetables as I’m already starting to plan my garden for next year! I discovered a practical and innovative way to store up the bountiful harvest. I took the overflowing supply of garden vegetables: zucchini, summer squash, cabbage, kale, and tomatoes galore; and combined them with various other vegetables that I had on hand, and made a “Harvest Puree” that I’m freezing to use as a base for soups, sauces, and even salad dressings this upcoming winter. I followed the basic principles of making Anti-Cancer Soup as demonstrated in Joel and Lisa Fuhrman’s Secrets to Healthy Cooking DVD, except I used less water to make it the thickness of sauce instead of soup. The puree is a deep shade of red, and full of vital nutrients. Cost? Cheaper than a bottle of cough syrup, trip to the doctor, and three days of missed work productivity. Cheaper than a trip to the plus size “fashion” store to buy yet another size of black stretch pants. Cheaper than the quart of cookie dough ice cream on the way home to drown the sorrows. And cheaper than the anti-acid medicine needed before bed. And much cheaper than the vial of insulin (a.k.a. liquid gold) that will be needed on down the road. Cost? Priceless. Nutritional excellence; cheaper than…you fill in the blank!
3 Ways Foods Like This Can Be Harmful…
Many people suffer from medical ailments because they were never taught about their bodies’ nutritional requirements. We eat entirely too many low-nutrient foods, which gives us excessive calories without enough nutrients. Our nutrient-deprived body then craves more food, and the availability of calorie-rich, low-nutrient foods enables us to eat ourselves to death. A diet based on milk, meats, cheese, pasta, bread, fried foods, and sugar-filled snacks and drinks lays the groundwork for obesity, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, digestive disorders, and autoimmune illnesses. THESE FOODS ARE HARMFUL IN THREE WAYS: They are high in disease-promoting substances that undermine our health. The more unhealthy foods we eat, the less health-promoting, plant-based foods we will eat. Consuming calories without the presence of antioxidant vitamins and phytochemicals leads to a build-up of waste products in our cells because the body can’t remove normal cellular wastes without nutrients. The cells don’t have the raw materials needed for optimal or normal function. The lack in some substances and the excess in others age us prematurely and cause disease. Foods that are refined, including chips, cookies, bread, and pasta, lose a dramatic amount of their nutrients in the refinement process. Plus, the process that browns foods and turns a grain into a baked flake or chip creates acrylamides—carcinogens that make these foods even more harmful. These processed foods are not only nutrient-poor, but they also contain elements that contribute to our health problems. They are typically high in salt, chemical food additives, trans fats, MSG, sodium nitrate, and other unhealthy ingredients.This is an excerpt from Dr. Fuhrman’s book Eat For Health.

Styles Of Electronic Cigarettes
Styles Of Electronic Cigarettes More than just electronic cigarettes, there are several other different types of e-smoking devices and styles of each type.Naturally, the most popular is the electronic cigarette, with a much larger number of people who smoke cigarettes versus cigars and pipes. http://www.ecigaretteexchange.com There are only a few basic varieties of electronic cigarettes. All electronic cigarettes operate on the same technology. A battery powers an atomizer which is triggered by “puffing” on the cartridge of the device. This operation produces a heavy vapor which is inhalled into the lungs where the nicotine is absorbed. Several manufacturers have their own design. however, in order to please the customer, most are designed as closely as possible to resemble a typical tobacco cigarette. This is key to the user not being apprehensive towards trying the product. It also aids in the ability for the user to relate to the tactile habit of holding a cigarette in their hand and receiving and exhaling “smoke” while satisfying their nicotine habit. http://www.ecigaretteexchange.com The major differences in styles of electronic cigarettes are the color of the battery and l.e.d. placed on the end to signify use. Some are long and thin with dark matte finishes while others are short and white with the “cigarette paper” rings printed around the barrel. Most have a red led light on the end to replicate a cigarette glow when puffing on the device. While others have blue or green. These colors will undoubtedly become more variant as popularity of the electronic cigarette continues to explode. Other style differences include the nicotine cartridge. This is the part of the electronic cigarette designed to resemble a filter. Original designs looked like the plastic tip you find on a cigarillo, flat and fluted. Not to appealing to someone who has been putting the round brown end of a cigarette in their mouths for years. This design still exists, however it is being swept over by the modern looking brown cartridge that clearly resembles a cigarette filter. On the subject of nicotine cartridges, there is a even newer design feature becoming prevalent. This style of cartridge has the atomizer included inside each individual cartridge. Typically, the cartridge and the atomizer are seperate. This aids in the application of additional nicotine liquid. As new designs and features become available we will determine if they are beneficial or not. That is what the public does. And as I find out about these changes I will of course make them available to you.by Tom Rockafellow E-Cigarette Exchangehttp://www.ecigaretteexchange.com
