Broccoli

Broccoli: You’ll Never Overcook It Again (Plus More Tips & Nutrition Info) Carl HansonBy Carl Hanson Facebook388TwitterGoogle+Pinterest1StumbleUpon Broccoli’s ready to please. Steam or stir-fry it, roast or boil it, bake it in casseroles, or just eat it raw — broccoli rewards you, no matter the method. Fresh broccoli in a bowl Photo by Meredith But did you know you can eat more of the broccoli plant than just the fashionable florets? Oh yes. Don’t pitch the stalks. Just give the rough woody parts a quick peel with a potato peeler. Then keep on peeling the tender parts of the stalks into raw salads. Or slice the stalks into little coins and stir-fry or roast them in a little oil. And the leaves? Oh yeh, you can eat those, too. For recipe inspiration, explore our collection of Broccoli Recipes. What to Look For When Choosing Fresh Broccoli Broccoli (Brassica oleracea) is a member of the cabbage family. It comes in a number of varieties, the most common being Calabrese broccoli, with its large flowering heads and sturdy, coarse stalks. Calabrese broccoli is typically what we have in mind when we think “broccoli.” Keep an eye out for purple varieties; you can find them sometimes in stores and farmers’ markets. Broccoli is a cool weather crop. So it’s freshest from October through April, though it’s available fresh year-round. Choose unblemished, dark green tops and firm stalks with no soft spots. The florets should be tightly bunched together, no yellowing at the edges and no budding or mushy spots. The stalks should feel firm and crisp, never limp or wobbly. Check the cut end of the stem, too, and pick broccoli heads that are moist and fresh-looking, not browned where the stem was cut. At most stores, you can also buy packages of pre-cut broccoli florets — look for the same characteristics to ensure quality. broccoli has a slightly sulphury smell because it's related to cabbage Beautiful fresh broccoli | Photo by Meredith Broccoli can stay fresh for up to two weeks if you store it unwashed, dry, and tightly wrapped in a plastic bag. Keep in mind broccoli’s nutritional value depletes the longer you store it, so you’re better off using it as soon as possible. Another alternative is frozen broccoli — you can use as much or as little as you like and freezing does a great job of preserving nutrients. Broccoli and Nutrition Mom was right. Broccoli really is good for you. In a one-cup serving, this nutritional powerhouse boasts 200 percent of your recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C, a good dose of Vitamin A, riboflavin, calcium, and fiber — and contains just 40 calories. It has even been proven to help protect against cataracts, stroke, and many kinds of cancer. In fact, acccording to a researcher at the University of Illinois, sulforaphane, one of broccoli’s cancer-fighting compounds, “is one of the most powerful anticarcinogens found in food.” How does sulforaphane’s anti-cancer property work? “It works by increasing the enzymes in your liver that destroy the cancer-inducing chemicals you ingest in food or encounter in the environment.” Incidentally, boiling broccoli was shown to reduce the effectiveness of its cancer-fighting properties. The best way to maximize the anti-cancer properties may be to give it a quick steam — just 3 or 4 minutes.

To avoid overcooking, uncover once it’s done and serve right away. You can also plunge it into an ice bath to stop the cooking — this will preserve the color, flavor, and nutrients. Here’s a friendly visual to help you avoid overcooking broccoli, which may strip it of some nutrients. It shows what to shoot for. The broccoli cooked to “crisp-tender” still holds its healthy crunch and likely has retained vitamins and other nutrients a bit better than the flabby, overdone version.

Add cut florets and peeled, sliced rings of broccoli stalks to the basket and steam, covered, for just 3 to 5 minutes. If you like softer broccoli, let it go for a few minutes more. You can also steam broccoli directly in a skillet: add cut broccoli and about 1/4 inch of water to a skillet and cook covered for about 5 minutes.

Each year, each of us eats almost six pounds of fresh broccoli and three pounds of frozen. We have Italy to thank — broccoli has been grown and enjoyed there since the days of the Roman Empire, and when immigrants from Italy hit U.S. shores, their favorite vegetable became one of ours as well. Of course, we also devour some of broccoli’s closest relatives: Broccolini With its small florets and long, slender stems, Broccolini can be easily confused with broccoli rabe. But its flavor is sweeter, more refined and delicate. And its stem looks (even tastes) more like asparagus. In fact, Broccolini’s original name, Aspabroc (yikes!), was a combination of the vegetables it resembled. Often called baby broccoli, Broccolini (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis) is a hybrid of broccoli and Chinese broccoli (kai lan) that was developed and trademarked in 1993 by Japan’s Sakata Seed Corporation. You can use it in any dish that calls for traditional broccoli. Broccolini Photo by Meredith Make simple broccolini tonight! Broccoli Rabe Another gift from the Italians is broccoli rabe, or, as Italians call it, cime di rapa (which means “turnip tops”). Although broccoli rabe is in the same family as regular broccoli, it’s also related to the turnip. Broccoli rabe’s florets are much smaller than those of its broccoli cousin, its stems are more slender, and its leaves more plentiful. Unlike with broccoli, however, all parts of broccoli rabe (Brassica rapa ruvo) are eaten—its stalks don’t require peeling because they’re not as thick and tough as broccoli’s. Its flavor has a bitter edge that some say turns mild and creamy when cooked past crisp-tender. Broccoli rabe, broccoli's slightly bitter cousin Photo by Meredith Make a broccoli rabe recipe tonight!

It is related to cabbage, kale, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. These vegetables are known for their beneficial health effects, and are sometimes referred to as the “super veggies.” Broccoli is high in many nutrients, including fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron and potassium. Broccoli also contains more protein than most other vegetables. Broccoli can be enjoyed both raw and cooked, but recent research shows that gentle steaming provides the most health benefits (1, 2). This is what broccoli looks like: Broccoli on Wooden Table Advertisement Nutrition Facts Raw broccoli contains almost 90% water, 7% carbs and 3% protein, and almost no fat. Broccoli is very low in calories, providing only 31 calories per cup. The table below contains information on all the main nutrients in broccoli (3). Broccoli - Nutrition Facts Type Serving General Vitamins & minerals General information Amount Calories 34 Water 89 % Protein 2.8 g Carbs 6.6 g Sugar 1.7 g Fiber 2.6 g Fat 0.4 g Saturated 0.04 g Monounsaturated 0.01 g Polyunsaturated 0.04 g Omega-3 0.02 g Omega-6 0.02 g Trans fat ~ More details Advertisement Carbs The carbohydrates in broccoli mainly consist of fiber and sugars. The sugars are fructose, glucose and sucrose, with small amounts of lactose and maltose (4). However, the total carbohydrate content is very low, with only 3.5 grams of digestible carbohydrate per cup. Fiber Fiber is an important part of a healthy diet. It can promote gut health, help prevent various disease, and is linked to reduced body weight (5, 6). 1 cup of raw broccoli (91 g) provides 2.3 grams of fiber, which is about 5-10% of the recommended daily intake (7). Bottom line: Broccoli is low in digestible carbs, but provides a decent amount of fiber. Fiber promotes gut health and may reduce the risk of various diseases. Protein Broccoli Proteins are the building blocks of the body, and are needed for both growth and maintenance. Broccoli is relatively high in protein compared to most commonly consumed vegetables (29% of its dry weight). However, because of the high water content of broccoli, a cup of broccoli only provides 3 grams of protein. Bottom line: Broccoli is higher in protein than most vegetables. However, because of its high water content, the amount of protein in each serving is relatively low. Vitamins and Minerals Broccoli contains a variety of vitamins and minerals. The most abundant ones are listed below. Vitamin C: An antioxidant, important for immune function and skin health (8). Half a cup of raw broccoli (45 grams) provides almost 70% of the recommended daily intake. Vitamin K1: Broccoli contains high amounts of vitamin K1, which is important for blood clotting and may promote bone health (9, 10). Folate (B9): Particularly important for pregnant women (11), folate is important for normal tissue growth and cell function (12). Potassium: An essential mineral, beneficial for blood pressure control and preventing cardiovascular disease (13). Manganese: This trace element is found in high amounts in whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables. Iron: An essential mineral, which has many important functions in the body, such as the transport of oxygen in red blood cells. Broccoli also contains numerous other vitamins and minerals, in smaller amounts. In fact, it contains a little bit of almost everything we need. Bottom line: Broccoli is high in many vitamins and minerals. These include vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, potassium, manganese and iron. Other Plant Compounds Broccoli is rich in various antioxidants and plant compounds, which contribute to its health benefits. Raw Broccoli Sulforaphane: One of the most abundant and extensively studied plant compounds in broccoli. It can have protective effects against various types of cancer (14, 15, 16). Indole-3-carbinol: A unique nutrient found in cruciferous vegetables, which may have beneficial effects against cancer (17). Carotenoids: Broccoli contains lutein, zeaxanthin and beta-carotene, which may all contribute to better eye health (18). Kaempferol: An antioxidant with many benefits for health. It may protect against heart disease, cancer, inflammation and allergy (19). Quercetin: An antioxidant with numerous benefits, including lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure (20). Bottom line: Broccoli is high in many plant compounds that have been associated with health benefits. The most abundant one is called sulforaphane. Health Benefits of Broccoli Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli contain sulfur-containing compounds that are responsible for their often spicy and bitter taste (21). These are bioactive compounds that may have numerous beneficial effects on health. Woman Holding a Piece of Broccoli Cancer Prevention Cancer is characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal cells, beyond their normal boundaries, and is often linked to oxidative stress (22). Broccoli is loaded with compounds that are believed to have protective effects against cancer. Observational studies suggest that consumption of cruciferous vegetables, including broccoli, is linked to reduced risk of many cancers. This includes lung, colorectal, breast, prostate, pancreatic and gastric cancer (23, 24, 25, 26). The factor that sets cruciferous vegetables apart from other vegetables, is a unique family of plant compounds called isothiocyanates. Isothiocyanates have been shown to affect liver enzymes, reduce oxidative stress, decrease inflammation, stimulate the immune system and decrease the development and growth of cancer (27, 28, 29). The main isothiocyanate in broccoli is sulforaphane, which acts against formation of cancer at the molecular level, such as by reducing oxidative stress (16, 30, 31). Sulforaphane is found in 20-100 times higher amounts in young broccoli sprouts than in full-grown broccoli heads (32). Broccoli supplements are also available in powder form, but supplemental intake may not contribute an equivalent amount of isothiocyanates, and thus may not give the same health benefits as eating whole broccoli (33, 34). Bottom line: Broccoli contains a unique family of plant compounds called isothiocyanates, the most abundant of which is called sulforaphane. They improve many risk factors for disease, and may reduce the risk of cancer. Lower Cholesterol Levels Broccoli in a Bowl Cholesterol has many important functions in the body. For example, it is a key factor in the formation of bile acids, which are substances that help us digest fats. Bile acids are formed in the liver, then stored in the gallbladder and released into the digestive system whenever we eat fat. Afterwards, the bile acids are reabsorbed into the bloodstream and used again. Substances in broccoli have the ability to bind with bile acids in the gut, increasing their excretion out of the body and preventing them from being reused (35). This results in the synthesis of new bile acids from cholesterol, reducing the total level of cholesterol in the body. This effect has been linked to reduced risk of heart disease and cancer (2). According to one study, steamed broccoli is particularly effective for lowering cholesterol levels (2). Bottom line: Broccoli may lower cholesterol levels by binding to bile acids in the gut, causing them to be expelled from the body. This reduces total cholesterol in the body. Eye Health Impaired eyesight is a common consequence of aging. Two of the main carotenoids in broccoli, lutein and zeaxanthin, have been associated with decreased risk of age-related eye disorders (36, 37). Vitamin A deficiency may cause night blindness, which can be reversed with improved vitamin A status (38). Broccoli contains beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the body. It may therefore have beneficial effects on eyesight in individuals with a low vitamin A intake. Bottom line: Broccoli contains several carotenoids. These are plant compounds that may improve eye health and reduce the risk of eye-related diseases. Adverse Effects Broccoli is usually well tolerated, and allergy is rare (39). Thyroid Problems Broccoli is considered a goitrogen, which means that high amounts may have harmful effects on the thyroid gland in sensitive individuals. Cooking (high heat) can alleviate these effects (40). Blood Thinners Individuals who are on the drug warfarin (blood thinner) should consult with a doctor before increasing their broccoli consumption, because the high amount of vitamin K may interact with the medication (41). Bottom line: Broccoli is usually well tolerated. It may have undesirable effects on the thyroid in some people, and those taking blood thinners should consult with a doctor before incorporating large amounts of broccoli into the diet. Summary Broccoli is one of the most popular vegetables in the world. It is easy to prepare, and can be eaten both raw and cooked. It is high in many nutrients, including a family of plant compounds called isothiocyanates, which may have numerous health benefits. It is also a decent source of fiber, and higher in protein than most other vegetables. The consumption of broccoli has been linked with reduced risk of cancer and heart disease, as well as improved eye health. https://authoritynutrition.com/foods/broccoli/
Ingredients: a lot of eggs!! About 9-10 per jar whole garlic cloves gallon of distilled white vinegar large bottle sriracha hot sauce peppers of choice (I use jarred pepperocinis, jalapenos, and habaneros. Habaneros are my favorite!) Instructions: 1) Hard boil eggs and peel the shells off them (if you want to know the best way to hard boil eggs, check out my blog post HERE)https://vimeo.com/124843137 *if the eggs break and you see the yellow yolk. Do not use them!! Send them down the hatch immediately!.. Then before you put the eggs in the jars at all, add your other ingredients. 2) Squirt enough sriracha in the bottom of the jar so that it's about 1/2-3/4 of an inch deep 3) Peel 3-4 individual whole garlic cloves and place in bottom of jar 4) Add peppers. I usually add 3 yellow peppers and 3 pepperchinis and then either 1 jalapeño or 1 habanero pepper per jar. *Update* I think the jars with the habaneros tasted the best and they weren't too spicy! Just full of flavor. 5) Add eggs until they reach the top of the jar as full as you can get it and still close the lid. *Don't smoosh them. It might crack one open to the yellow yolk and that's a no bueno. It ruins the whole jar if you do. 6) Add vinegar until it reaches the top of the jar. Place canning lid and ring on the jars. 7) Use a large canning pot (sometimes called a water bath pot) and fill it with enough water that when you add your jars to the pot, your jars are totally immersed in water. 8) Bring your water to a gentle boil and let them boil for 20 minutes. Remove your jars from the water bath onto a towel and allow them to cool. 9) Typically I will flip the jars upside down every other week for the first month so the sriracha soaks in evenly. They taste the best if you let them set for about 6 weeks. *It does take at a minimum of a couple weeks for the sriracha flavor to set in. You'll be pretty disappointed if you crack one the next day. Disclaimer: Don't eat more than three pickled eggs a day. I'm not sure what it is about the pickled eggs, but whoever you share a room or car with later that don't won't be very happy with you haha!

“Our Daily Poison” — A Stark Look at Our Toxic Food Supply October 24, 2015 | 264,396 views

“Our Daily Poison” — A Stark Look at Our Toxic Food Supply October 24, 2015 | 264,396 views Visit the Mercola Video Library https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvvvPTksIJ4 By Dr. Mercola How many chemicals are you exposed to on a daily basis? There's no way to know for sure, but chances are toxic chemicals are in your food and many items you touch hundreds, if not thousands, of times a day. What is known that your toxic burden is largely related to your purchasing decisions and lifestyle. While environmental pollution is certainly a factor, primary routes of chronic exposure include your diet, and personal care and household products. Tests have confirmed that those who eat non-organic foods and use chemical-based products tend to have far higher levels of toxins in their system. Your choice of building materials and furniture can also play a role, as many contain toxic chemicals like flame retardants. Toxins in Food and Plastics Are Fueling Chronic Disease Health statistics suggest the toxic burden is becoming too great for children and adults alike, and toxins in our food appear to play a primary role. According to Joseph E. Pizzorno,1 founding president of Bastyr University, toxins in the modern food supply are now "a major contributor to, and in some cases the cause of, virtually all chronic diseases." Dr. David Bellinger, a professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School has expressed similar concerns. According to his estimates, Americans have lost a total of 16.9 million IQ points due to exposure to organophosphate pesticides.2 Most recently, a report3,4 by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics5 warns that chemical exposures now represent a major threat to human health and reproduction. An Endocrine Society task force also recently issued a new scientific statement6,7 on endocrine-disrupting chemicals, noting that the health effects of hormone-disrupting chemicals are such that everyone needs to take proactive steps to avoid them. The statement also calls for improved safety testing to determine which chemicals may cause problems. Our Daily Poison Written and directed by Marie-Monique Robin, the featured film "Our Daily Poison" delves into these kinds of issues, covering a spectrum of poisons that most people are exposed to on a regular basis. This includes: Agricultural chemicals Artificial sweeteners like aspartame and other food additives Endocrine-disrupting chemicals like phthalates and bisphenol-A (BPA) The film also discusses "the cocktail effect" — interactions between chemicals that render the sum total more harmful than the risks associated with any given chemical in isolation. Conventional Farming Can Be Hazardous to Your Health With the advent of the "green revolution" starting in the 1930s, chemicals became agents of choice and were widely embraced as the way to eradicate hunger and ensure abundance. Agricultural chemicals such as pesticides were said to be responsible for providing the Western world with the highest living standard the world had ever known. In this chemistry-based model, there's a chemical for every problem: pesticides to kill pests, herbicides to address weeds, insecticides to get rid of specific insects, fungicides against mushrooms and fungi, and so on. But, as the decades wore on, problems and drawbacks of this system became apparent. For starters, farmers became increasingly vulnerable to diseases and chronic ailments related to toxic exposures — many of which came as a complete surprise to farmers who believed such chemicals were safe. The film features a group of about 30 French farmers, who for more than 15 years have fought against the use of pesticides in France after becoming severely ill from either acute or long-term exposure. Studies have indeed shown both farm workers and rural residents living near farms are at increased risk of certain diseases, including Parkinson's disease, which has been linked to pesticide exposure. Pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides are potent toxins that can damage your neurological system, including your brain. Even extremely low-level pesticide exposure has been found to considerably increase the risk of Parkinson's disease. Certain types of cancer are also more prevalent among agricultural workers than the general population. Common Side Effects of Agricultural Chemicals Different chemicals are associated with different side effects: Insecticides primarily produce neurological symptoms, such as headaches Fungicides tend to produce skin-related symptoms Herbicides are associated with digestive and skin problems Glyphosate, one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, has been linked to an array of health effects, including:8,9 Nutritional deficiencies, especially minerals Systemic toxicity Disruption of your microbiome; preferentially affecting beneficial bacteria, and allowing pathogens to overgrow Increased antibiotic resistance Increased cancer risk10,11,12,13 Roundup Formulation Is Likely Far Worse Than Glyphosate Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Monsanto's broad spectrum herbicide Roundup. This herbicide is most heavily applied on genetically engineered (GE) corn, soybeans, and sugar beets, but it's also commonly used to desiccate conventional (non-GMO but non-organic) wheat and protect other conventional crops from weeds. While the dangers of glyphosate are quickly becoming more widely recognized, many fail to realize that the Roundup formulation is even more toxic than glyphosate, because the surfactants in the formula synergistically increase glyphosate's toxicity. Recent research14,15 by Gilles-Éric Séralini — whose initial lifetime feeding study revealed massive tumor growth and early death — shows that long-term exposure to even ultra-low amounts of Roundup can cause cancer, along with liver and kidney damage in rats. The dose used in this study was "environmentally relevant in terms of human, domesticated animals, and wildlife levels of exposure," prompting the authors to suggest Roundup may have significant implications for health. As revealed in the featured film, pesticides are not safe, and the science backing their use on the field, and the safety of consuming traces of them on food, has been largely produced by groups that have significant conflicts of interests. The chemical industry also has a perpetually revolving door with the regulatory agencies, which has allowed unreasonably hazardous chemicals to be used in the growing of our food. The film also reveals the history and questionable use of Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) and the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) as assurances of the "safe" level of pesticides in the diet. While many believe these measures are based on sound science, in reality, there's plenty of guess work involved in calculating these limits. Many Food Chemicals Are Unregulated While the regulatory system governing agricultural chemicals is dysfunctional and flawed, other chemicals used in food production are not regulated at all... In the US, food additives are not automatically required to get premarket approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).16,17,18,19,20 As explained in the video above, items that fall under the "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS) designation are exempt from the approval process, and food manufacturers routinely use this loophole to add novel ingredients without FDA oversight. This is also how Monsanto and other agribusinesses sneaked GMO foods into our food supply, as the FDA classified them as GRAS in 1992. Steven Druker revealed in my interview with him how his lawsuit to reverse this was lost on technicalities. The law that provides this unfortunate loophole is the 1958 Food Additives Amendment. It excludes GRAS items from the formal FDA approval process for food additives, and while it doesn't make sense today, it did at the time it was written. In 1958, GRAS exemptions applied to common food ingredients like vinegar and baking soda — regular cooking ingredients known through their historical use as being safe. However, times have changed, and so has food chemistry. Food manufacturers of today use chemicals in food processing that would have been inconceivable in 1958. A major part of the problem is that food companies are allowed to determine, on their own, whether an ingredient is GRAS. To do this, all they have to do is hire an industry insider to evaluate the chemical, and if that individual determines that the chemical meets federal safety standards, it can be deemed GRAS. At that point, the company doesn't even need to inform the FDA that the ingredient is used, and no independent third party objective evaluation is required. This process allows food manufacturers to market novel chemicals in their products based on absolutely nothing except their own safety assessments — the results of which can be kept a secret. According to Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI),21,22 at least 1,000 ingredients are added to our food that the FDA has no knowledge of. One now "classic" example of the GRAS process gone awry is artificial trans fat, which was originally considered GRAS. Decades later and faced with a mountain of scientific evidence, the FDA has now deemed trans fat dangerous, saying it causes as many as 7,000 deaths from heart disease each year, and has withdrawn the GRAS designation from hydrogenated vegetables oils. Fascinating Example of How Funding Bias Can Influence Science The film also touches on how the regulatory process was manipulated to allow aspartame into the food supply. There are a number of well-written books on the market that detail the twists and turns of this part of history. A Harvard law summary of the legal wrangling23 that took place is also a worthwhile read if you're confused about how a toxin like aspartame could possibly be allowed in the food supply. Aspartame gained FDA approval in the US in 1981, with a daily ADI of 50 mg/kg. In Europe, the European Food Safety Authority set the ADI at 40 mg/kg. While aspartame can be found in some 6,000 different food products, diet soda accounts for a majority of the aspartame consumed. A 12 ounce can of diet soda can contain upwards of 180 mg of aspartame — well over the ADI of both the US and Europe. The safety of aspartame has been debated since well before its FDA approval, and if you've been inclined to believe the claims that aspartame has been well-studied and found safe, the following review of the science just might make you reconsider... In 1996, Dr. Ralph G. Walton, a physician and professor of Clinical Psychiatry reviewed 165 aspartame studies24,25 believed to be relevant to human safety. What he found was a remarkable discrepancy between study results and their source of funding. Of the 165 studies, 74 had industry-related funding (such as Searle, Nutrasweet®, Ajinomoto, and the International Life Sciences Institute Nutrition Foundation), and 91 were independently funded. Of those: 100 percent of the industry funded studies supported aspartame's safety 92 percent of the independently funded studies identified at least one potential health concern However, of the seven non-industry funded studies that supported aspartame's safety, six were done by the FDA. The seventh was a literature review of mostly industry-sponsored research. Considering the long-standing revolving door between various industries (especially Monsanto, which acquired G.D. Searle in 1985) and the FDA, it's questionable as to whether an FDA study can be considered truly "independent," even though they were counted as independent in Walton's review. If you give that concern any merit, you'd more or less be looking at 100 percent of industry-related studies claiming aspartame to be safe, and 100 percent of independent studies flagging some sort of health concern! The Hormone-Wrecking Power of Plastics A number of common household chemicals are endocrine disruptors, meaning, they alter the normal function of your hormones. These are referred to as "endocrine-disrupting chemicals" (EDCs). A 2013 Environmental Working Group (EWG) report 26 identified many of the best-known hormone wreckers; 12 of the worst are listed in the following table. I've written about many of these in prior articles, so for more information about any particular one, please follow the links. Bisphenol-A (BPA) Dioxin Atrazine Phthalates Perchlorate Fire retardants Lead Mercury Arsenic Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) Organophosphate pesticides Glycol ethers A hormone's job is to interact with the cells in your body, sending signals that instruct them to perform certain tasks, but EDCs interfere with this communication process. Small but repeated EDC exposures can mimic your natural endocrine system — and that's what's so concerning. Your hormones operate at parts per million and parts per billion concentrations. This is why many experts believe there is no safe level of exposure for many of these EDCs. As noted in the film, the effects noted in animals such as rats are now — some 25 years later — being observed in humans. This includes early-onset of menopause in increasingly younger women. This effect was demonstrated in animal studies decades ago, and is now turning out to hold true in humans as well. The fact that EDCs cause generational effects makes the proliferation of chemicals in pregnant women all the more disturbing. In a 2005 landmark study,27 EWG found an average of 200 industrial chemicals and pollutants in the umbilical cord blood of infants born in the US, including pesticides, environmental waste chemicals, BPA, flame-retardants, PCBs, and even DDT. Some of these chemicals can cross the placenta and produce effects at very tiny doses. In an important 2012 World Health Organization (WHO) report about endocrine-disrupting chemicals, the authors wrote:28,29 "The diverse systems affected by endocrine-disrupting chemicals likely include all hormonal systems and range from those controlling development and function of reproductive organs to the tissues and organs regulating metabolism and satiety. Effects on these systems can lead to obesity, infertility, or reduced fertility, learning and memory difficulties, adult-onset diabetes, or cardiovascular disease, as well as a variety of other diseases." Tips to Help You Avoid Toxic Chemicals Tens of thousands of industrial chemicals are used daily in consumer products with grossly inadequate safety testing — if ANY safety testing was done at all. Even under the best circumstances, the current American system does not look at how chronically low doses of chemicals affect you, or how aggregate exposures affect you over time — and it's these combined effects that pose the greatest concern. Within such a dysfunctional system, you are the best one to keep your family safe. Although no one can successfully steer clear of ALL chemicals and pollutants, you can minimize your exposure by keeping a number of key principles in mind. Eat a diet focused on REAL FOOD that is locally grown, fresh, and ideally organic whole foods. Processed and packaged foods are a common source of chemicals such as BPA and phthalates. Wash fresh produce well, especially if it's not organically grown. Choose grass-pastured, sustainably raised meats and dairy to reduce your exposure to hormones, pesticides, and fertilizers. Avoid milk and other dairy products that contain the genetically engineered recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH or rBST). Rather than eating conventional or farm-raised fish, which are often heavily contaminated with PCBs and mercury, supplement with a high-quality krill oil, or eat fish that is wild-caught and lab tested for purity, such as wild caught Alaskan salmon. Buy products that come in glass bottles rather than plastic or cans, as chemicals can leach out of plastics (and plastic can linings), into the contents; be aware that even "BPA-free" plastics typically leach other endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are just as bad for you as BPA. Store your food and beverages in glass, rather than plastic, and avoid using plastic wrap. Use glass baby bottles. Replace your non-stick pots and pans with ceramic or glass cookware. Filter your tap water for both drinking AND bathing. If you can only afford to do one, filtering your bathing water may be more important, as your skin absorbs contaminants. To remove the endocrine-disrupting herbicide Atrazine, make sure your filter is certified to remove it. According to the EWG, perchlorate can be filtered out using a reverse osmosis filter. Look for products made by companies that are Earth-friendly, animal-friendly, sustainable, certified organic, and GMO-free. This applies to everything from food and personal care products to building materials, carpeting, paint, baby items, furniture, mattresses, and others. Use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter to remove contaminated house dust. This is one of the major routes of exposure to flame retardant chemicals. When buying new products such as furniture, mattresses, or carpet padding, consider buying flame retardant free varieties, containing naturally less flammable materials, such as leather, wool, cotton, silk, and Kevlar. Avoid stain- and water-resistant clothing, furniture, and carpets to avoid perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). Make sure your baby's toys are BPA-free, such as pacifiers, teething rings, and anything your child may be prone to suck or chew on — even books, which are often plasticized. It's advisable to avoid all plastic, especially flexible varieties. Use natural cleaning products or make your own. Avoid those containing 2-butoxyethanol (EGBE) and methoxydiglycol (DEGME) — two toxic glycol ethers that can compromise your fertility and cause fetal harm. Switch over to organic toiletries, including shampoo, toothpaste, antiperspirants, and cosmetics. EWG's Skin Deep database30 can help you find personal care products that are free of phthalates and other potentially dangerous chemicals. Replace your vinyl shower curtain with a fabric one. Replace feminine hygiene products (tampons and sanitary pads) with safer alternatives. Look for fragrance-free products. One artificial fragrance can contain hundreds — even thousands — of potentially toxic chemicals. Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets, which contain a mishmash of synthetic chemicals and fragrances.

Like · Reply · 1 · Mar 9, 2016 1:10am Mark Spirito · New York, New York Explain please Like · Reply · Mar 11, 2016 11:51am Sylvia Surfer · Founder and CEO at My Daily Dosha Mark Spirito The main principles of Ayurvedic eating are that certain foods are very healthy for certain doshas, but could be very unhealthy for others, especially if eaten everyday. Ayurveda is also about balance, so the idea that you should eat the same fruit or vegetable every day is not an Ayurvedic principle. One should eat different foods to help balance one's own personal doshic makeup and certain foods are better eaten in Spring, Winter, Summer or Fall again depending on one's doshic makeup.

Then you can use the frozen banana as a base for any smoothie or just blend the banana and it tastes just like banana ice cream. I usually add, strawberry's and blueberry's or apples and spinach and peanuts, tastes pretty good. But, any combination of fruits you have will be good, if you like them. I am on a high folate diet that's why I add spinach and peanuts to mine. Also, add a little water if you want it more liquified to drink or less if you want to eat like ice cream.

Did You Know That Eating Kamias Everyday Can Do This To Your Body?

Did You Know That Eating Kamias Everyday Can Do This To Your Body? It’s funny that while we Filipinos are so familiar with Kamias, we rarely look into their healing properties. Because of its complex nutritional compounds the mighty plant, from the stem to the flower to the fruit, can be used for these purposes: 1. Treating Cough Prepare a few grains of fennel, 3 grains of kamias, and sugar. Mix in water and steam for a couple of hours. Drink twice a day on an empty stomach to absorb the nutrients faster. 2. Overcome Diabetes Prepare 6 grains of Kamias and crush. Mix with water and boil the mixture. When ready, strain and drink twice a day. 3. Overcome Acne Kamias’ acid properties can help in treating acne. Just crush into fine powder and apply topically as needed. 4. Overcome Thrush or Singaw Just like in the previous number, crush the Kamias grains and apply topically. Be warned, this will sting. 5. Rheumatism Take a handful of Kamias leave and exactly one grain of Kamias. Crush until fine then add whitling and mix. Apply paste on the area 2-43 times a day for best results. As usual with natural remedies, it is best to treat the problem with proper exercise, diet and a consultation with your doctor. Source: drhealthbenefits.com

What is Rosemary Good For? Rosemary Health Benefits

What is Rosemary Good For? Rosemary Health Benefits Natural Cures Natural Cures Subscribed152,087 Add to Share More 76,750 views 1,861 23 ShareEmbedEmail https://youtu.be/oh4ZBzylrSQ Start at: 3:20 Published on Nov 14, 2016 What is Rosemary Good For? Rosemary health benefits “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance: pray, love, remember.” This line from Hamlet shows that Shakespeare, the famous writer, knew the great uses of rosemary. Long after Shakespeare’s time, different studies have also shown many ways rosemary is good for your health, whether it is used fresh, dried, or as an oil. Rosemary has strong antioxidants, can kill germs, block cancer, bring down swelling, and fight infections. It also has some vitamins and minerals, like vitamins A and C, thiamin, riboflavin, folate, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc and copper. The woodsy, citrus-like smell of rosemary essential oil is also found in beauty products and used in aromatherapy. Besides its health and beauty uses, rosemary is also used as a cooking herb by many people. Fresh or dried rosemary can be added to soups, sandwiches, salads, dips, and even be used for making infused oil. Also, rosemary tea is a well-liked drink. Here are some ways rosemary can be good for your health. 1. Boosts Memory Rosemary works as a cognitive stimulant, helpful for boosting memory and mental focus. It is even good at raising brain- wave activities and guarding against neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s disease. 2. Fights Stress and Anxiety The sweet smell of rosemary is helpful for clearing your mind and easing stress. Its calming nature even helps soothe tense muscles. 3. Alleviates Headaches Rosemary dulls pain and brings down swelling, so it can soothe headaches. It can even help ease the pain and strength of migraines. 4. Stimulates Hair Growth This wonderful herb also helps hair growth. It boosts blood circulation to the scalp, which lets more nutrients reach the hair follicles. 5. Reduces Inflammation Rosemary is helpful for easing pain and swelling. It helps soothe arthritis pain, sciatic nerve pain, gout pain, back pain, and stiff neck. Because it stops spasms, this herb also helps ease menstrual pains. 6. Strengthens the Immune System Rosemary gives you a powerful shield against different diseases and germs that may harm your immune system. 7. Treats Respiratory Problems You can also use this herb to treat respiratory infections like cold and flu, sinus infection, and bronchial asthma. This is because rosemary is soothing, kills bacteria, and stops spasms. It also helps lessen bad breath. 8. Improves Digestion Rosemary is great for your stomach because it controls how much bile is let out, and fights germs from food. It also boosts the appetite, treats indigestion, and eases gas buildups, bloating, and constipation. 9. Prevents High Blood Sugar Diabetic people can use rosemary oil to control their blood sugar levels. Rosemary extracts can lower glucose and cholesterol levels, which helps control Type 2 diabetes and other metabolic conditions. When taking this herb to help with diabetes, make sure you keep checking your blood sugar levels. Also, keep taking your regular medicines as your doctor tells you. Extra tips: Don’t use rosemary essential oil during pregnancy, or if you have epilepsy, hypertension, or bleeding disorders. Before using rosemary oil on the skin, test it on a little part of the skin to make sure you’re not allergic to it. Do not eat a lot of rosemary.
