Enlarged Prostate and Pumpkin Seeds

Pumpkin seeds are available all year round but it is great to get them fresh from the pumpkin you carve. Don’t throw them away because in terms of nutrition they are a treasure.

A serving is roughly 1 tablespoon (10 grams). So you really don’t need to eat many of them. Pumpkin seeds are high in calories, so you wouldn’t want to eat a lot of them anyway.

Here are some suggestions for adding to your diet

* Sprinkle on top of roasted vegetables
* Add to salads for extra crunch
* Add them to homemade beef or chicken burgers
* Sprinkle chopped pumpkin seeds in your cereal or oatmeal
* Include in your baking recipes, for example oatmeal cookies

For your one tablespoon of pumpkin seeds a day here is what you will get:

Constipation and mucus formation are prevented because pumpkin seeds have powerful enzymes known to boost the immune system.

They promote overall prostate health and alleviate the difficult urination associated with an enlarged prostate.

In some studies, pumpkin seed extracts improved bladder function in animals.

Pumpkin seeds contain L-tryptophan, a compound naturally effective against depression.

Because they are high in zinc, pumpkin seeds are a natural protector against osteoporosis. Low intake of zinc is linked to higher rates of osteoporosis.

Recent studies suggest that pumpkin seeds can help those suffering from arthritis or other chronic conditions where inflammation is a problem.

Animal studies conducted by Jayaprakasam, Seeram and Nair show that pumpkin seeds had a similar anti-inflammatory effect as indomethacin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine.

1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds contains 92% of your daily value of magnesium, a mineral in which most Americans are deficient.

Pumpkin seeds contain phytosterols, compounds that that have been shown to reduce levels of LDL cholesterol and protect against many cancers.

Food Combinations That Burn Fat

Justine — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 21:29:22 +0000

Food Combinations to Lose Weight

Here is really great article I found in Family Circle Magazine about different food combinations that burn fat.

Bread and Vinegar – If you like bread, pasta and potatoes, but tend to eat too much of it because it tastes so good just sprinkle it with a little vinegar. According to dietitians, when we eat high-carb foods like bread, the amount of glucose in our blood rises rapidly. But very quickly it plummets, triggering feeling of hunger that cause us to eat even more.

Vinegar moderates that spike in glucose, so you feel full longer. In a recent study people who consumed 4 teaspoons of apple-cider vinegar along with some bagels and juice ate 200 fewer calories throughout the day than those who ate the same meal minus the vinegar.

Brown rice and peas - Most women assume gaining weight as they age is just a fact of life, but it isn’t. As we age we lose lean muscle which is a natural metabolism booster that helps us burn calories. So lift weights and make sure that between 25% to 35% of your calories come from protein. Plant foods like rice have protein but eaten alone they lack some of the essential amino acids needed for a complete protein. Pair lysine poor rice with lysine rich peas and your body will get a healthy protein boost. If you adds beans to this combo you will get a good dose of potassium, a mineral that counteracts age-related muscle loss by making the blood less acidic.

New Healing and Healthy Food Pyramids

Justine — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 22:23:10 +0000

American Dietetic Association’s Knowledge Center Team

June is National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month. Our paper had a great article on the new food pyramid which is actually called the food plate now instead of the Food Pyramid. MyPlate, the USDA’s new icon that replaces the Food Pyramid to guide Americans in eating a healthful diet, recommends filling half your plate with fruits and vegetables. Any fresh, canned, frozen or dried fruit or vegetable or 100 percent fruit or vegetable juice counts. Dietitians advise eating a variety of colors. Most of colors provide different nutrients so if you stick to just one color you will miss out on important vitamins and minerals.

Here is a look at what each color of fruit and vegetable group offers, according to the American Dietetic Association:

Red - Beets, cherries, cranberries, red peppers, pomegranates, red onions, watermelon and tomatoes: May support heart health, immunity and vision and reduce cancer risks.

Blue/Purple – Blueberries, blackberries, purple cabbage, eggplant and plums: Many have antioxidant and anti-aging benefits, keep memory sharp and the urinary tract healthy and reduce cancer risks.

Deep Yellow/orange – Pineapple, apricots, cantaloupe, carrots, corn, peaches and sweet potatoes’ Reduces risk of some cancers and supports healthy vision and immunity.

Green – Broccoli,, asparagus, avocados, grapes, green beans, kiwis and leafy greens such as spinach: May help maintain healthy vision and reduce cancer risks.

White/tan/brown - Bananas, cauliflower, onions, white potatoes and turnips: Some contain nutrients that may reduce the risk of cancer and help support heart health.

The Department of Agriculture introduces the new food icon, MyPlate, to replace the MyPyramid image as the government’s primary food group symbol. An easy-to-understand visual cue to help consumers adopt healthy eating habits, MyPlate is consistent with the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Here is a short video explaining the new icon and how it relates to the new food pyramid.

How to Curb Sugar Cravings

Justine — Mon, 16 May 2011 01:57:41 +0000

How To Beat Sugar Cravings

Gastronic Dr. supports healthy levels of normal micro-organisms, yeast, and bacteria in the colon and entire digestive tract. Overgrowth of yeast in the gut is sometimes the cause of sugar cravings.

This was a very interesting article that appeared in Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen’s column in the newspaper:

Knowing what causes sugar cravings can help you put a cap on them long before they force you into bigger clothes. Which of the three types of sweets cravings do you have?

1. You say: “Feed me now, or I’ll kill you”. This usually reflects low blood sugar. Eating sugar helps in the first few minutes, but it makes things worse in the long term.

Break it – sucking on a Tic Tac or two can be enough to stop the attack. After that, eat more protein and fewer sweets to keep your blood sugar stable.

2. You say:”I’d really like a Twinkie.” You generally feel okay, but find yourself searching for a snack.

Break it – Holistic docs say that this could reflect yeast overgrowth in the gut, and that taking a digestive aid that balances your system can help.

A digestive aid such as Gastronic Dr. supports healthy levels of normal micro-organisms, yeast, and bacteria in the colon and entire digestive tract. Gastronic DR.also keeps your system in balance and supports ongoing health in the entire digestive system and stomach lining.

Regular use of Gastronic Dr. safely supports digestive health and all organs and structures involved in digestion, as well as the mucus membranes of the digestive tract. Additionally, the herbs used in Gastronic Dr. have been specifically selected and are suitable to use in conjunction with prescription and over-the-counter medication, if required. Click on the banner below or at the top of post to get more information.

Gastronic Dr. promotes healthy digestion and encourages comfort after meals. Helps you avoid gas, upset stomachs and digestive irregularities.

Also see our post Foods That Have Probiotic Bacteria which will also help you learn how to work probiotic food into your diet.

3. You say:” It’s my period, and I’m depressed.” Low levels of serotonin around your period can cause you to crave carbs.

Break it – Eating dark chocolate just an ounce or so will supply a natural antidepressant, called PEA plus the carbs you crave.

Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes Diet

Benefits of 70% Dark Chocolate Cocao

Here are some simple changes you can make to improve your health. None of these are expensive, they are all easily found in your area – i.e. you don’t have to live in a big city to find them and they are easy to do. These are therapeutic lifestyle changes diet is one of the easiest to start with.

1. Eat more chocolate: make sure it’s dark chocolate and get the real cocoa-based stuff, with 70 percent or more cocoa. Dark chocolate is full of flavonoids which do wonderful things for your arteries and other parts of your body. Chocolate also releases dopamine, a hormone that makes you feel good.

2. Eat more nuts: Dry roast walnuts in your oven (275 degrees for 9 minutes)for a snack full of omega-3-fatty acids, which will give better hair, a healthier heart, better moods and flexible joints.

4. Yoga: Take up yoga to improve energy, flexibility and maybe even your attitude. You can get DVD’s from your library and find routines that take as few as 10 minutes and are for the beginner.

5. Walk: Walk more, and keep track of how far you’ve gone with a pedometer. You can find a good one for just $15 or so. Aim for 10,000 steps a day – that’s the equivalent of a five-mile walk. Park your car farther from your destination to get in those extra steps.

6. Pedicures: If you get regular manicures or pedicures, consider investing in your own implements to take to a salon with you. That way you’ll avoid a hard-to-shake fungus you might pick up from another customer.

7. Drink more water: Buy a refillable stainless-steel water bottle to save money and the planet.

8. Drink Coffee - Coffee is the largest source of antioxidants in the North American Diet. If you add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg you will get even more health benefits. See our post Cinnamon A Super Food For Your Body

Complex Carbs Recipes

Justine — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 02:10:04 +0000

List Complex Carbs

Carbohydrates come in two basic types, simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates are comprised of simple molecules that are easily digested into the bloodstream. Examples of simple carbohydrates are: dextrose, fructose, fruit juice concentrates, glucose, honey, lactose, maltose, molasses, and sucrose.

Most of our carbohydrates should come from complex carbohydrates, providing energy, fiber and essential vitamins and minerals. Starch and fiber are the primary ingredients of complex carbohydrates. Simple carbs are generally those found in foods containing sugars and in some fruits and vegetables and their juices. With the exception of fruits and vegetables, foods high in simple carbohydrates provide less nutritional value. Here are some tips to help you choose wisely:

Grains and grain products - Instead of eating sugary cereals choose an unsweetened whole-grain cereal. Select baked goods or pasta made with whole wheat flour over white flour. Eat brown rice instead of white rice. Mix other grains into your diet, including whole oats and oatmeal, corn, barley, quinoa, whole rye, and wheat and oat bran.

Vegetables - Eat from a variety of organic vegetables, dark green leafy vegetables, cabbage, beets, Brussels sprouts, turnips, broccoli, peppers, cauliflower, tomatoes, and sweet and white potatoes.

Fruits – Include citrus fruits, melons and berries, bananas, apples, mango, apricots (fresh and dried) and prunes.

Milk, yogurt, cheese - select low-fat, low sugar diary products instead of highly sweetened or high-fat options.

Beans and nuts - Cooked dried beans, peas, lentils, and nuts are nutritious foods.

Here are a few recipes to get you started. The first one comes Runners World magazine and the second one from a site called The Healthy Eating Guide.

Complex Carbs Recipes

Foods To Support Brain Health

Justine — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 22:58:27 +0000

Elizabeth Somer Eat Your Way to Happiness

Food and brain power are connected. There are actually foods that will increase your brain power. This is especially helpful as we get older because we tend to lose brain function and eating the right foods will help us hold on to what we have. Here are some suggestions from Elizabeth Somer’s Book, “Eat Your Way to Happiness” which will keep your brain healthy and your memory sharp:

DHA Omega-3s - These are what keep walls of the brain cells flexible, fluid and able to communicate with each other. Your body can’t make DHA so you have to get it from food or supplements. One study indicated that people who took DHA daily for six months improved so much that their brains became three years younger. Try to get 900 milligrams a day. Get an algae based DHA supplement, eat DHA enriched foods and eat salmon and trout. Taking a DHA Omega-3 supplements also helps keep your healthy. See our post Diet and Your Hair

If your look for a good Omega 3 supplement, consider Omega 3 and Omega 6 interact with each other, so the balance between them is crucial for good health. Together they affect the production of hormonal-type messengers called eicosanoids, which have an impact on many functions at a cellular level. With Hypercet Omega 3-6-9, you can be certain you’re receiving the right mix of Omega-3 and 6. Now you won’t have to rigidly balance your diet in order to maximize the properties of these essential oils.

Brightly colored fruits and vegetables - Phyto chemicals in foods like dark-green spinach, pumpkin, red raspberries and bright yellow peppers not only directly disarm free radicals, they also switch on genes that muster your body’s own antioxidant defense system for a double whammy. Try to get nine servings a day.

Water - Even a little dehydration can blur your thinking. Drink enough so that your urine looks pale at all times. Sip, don’t chug. Your body can’t absorb more than 1 cup in 20 minutes.

Nuts – Walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts and pecans, all have healthy mono- and polyunsaturated fats that help keep your arteries clear which helps carry blood to your brain. They also provide the raw materials your body uses to produce mood-boosting serotonin in your brain. Try to get an ounce a day which is 12 walnut halves or 24 almonds.

Dark Chocolate – Real dark chocolate that’s 70 percent or more cocoa boosts your levels of feel-good dopamine and provides flavonoids, which help keep a arteries young. Try to get 1/4 ounce four times a day. The 70 percent might not taste so good to you if you are not used it so you may need to start with the 60 percent or work up to the 70 percent. Your taste buds will gradually adjust. Just get the plain chocolate if you add fillings and flavorings you start getting too many calories. Dark chocolate and walnuts make a super food combination. To find what makes this such a great combo see our post

Whole Grain Muffin Recipes

Justine — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 23:09:29 +0000

Nutrition Facts of Whole Grain

At least half the grains you eat should be whole grains, says the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Next time you shop for food, substitute whole grains for some of the grains you usually buy.

Whole-grain products contain all three parts of the grain’s seed, the endosperm, gran and germ. Refined grains contain only the endosperm. Refining removes the bran and germ. This creates a finer texture, but it also removes fiber.

Eating whole grains is important because fiber helps reduce high blood cholesterol by blocking your intestines from absorbing cholesterol. Fiber may also help you lose weight because it makes you feel full on fewer calories. Losing excess weight helps control high blood pressure and improves your body’s use of insulin.

Research in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association found that overweight and obese adults on a weight-loss diet reduced their LDL, or “bad,” cholesterol more if they ate whole grain ready to eat oat cereal instead of grain-based products that were low in fiber. They also reduced their waist measurement more with the cereal.

Whole grains include brown rice, wild rice, buckwheat, bulgur, oatmeal, amaranth, millet, quinoa, sorghum, triticale and popcorn. Grain-based products like bread, pasta, crackers, breakfast cereal, tortillas, and pitas may be made from either whole or refined grains. Choose products that contain whole grains, such as whole wheat, whole rye, whole-grain barley, or whole-grain cornmeal, as the first ingredient on the label. Don’t be fooled by the term “multigrain.” It doesn’t mean whole grain.

You can make your own whole grain bakery products at home. Here are two really easy muffin recipe with lots of fiber. If you like blueberry muffins check out our recipe for high fiber blueberry muffins. See our postHealthy Recipe for Blueberry Muffins Even my kids thought this recipe for blueberry muffins was good and they are tough to please.

Scientific Health Benefits Avocado

Justine — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 03:26:15 +0000

Healthy Fats Foods

Low fat diets have promoted for so many years yet our population keeps getting fatter. The obesity rates for Americans have doubled in the last 20 years, coinciding with the advent of the low-fat revolution. In the 1960s, Americans ate 45% of their calories from fat – and only 13% of us were obese. Now, while most of us get only about 33% of our calories from fat, 34% of us qualify as obese! So many people are afraid of eating fats but they often don’t know the difference between the good fats and the bad fats. Avocados contain monounsaturated fat which is a good fat and can help reduce your risk of heart disease as opposed to saturated fats which will increase your risk. Avocado’s have many other health benefits and because they do contain fat they will help you feel more full and may therefore be helpful in weight loss.

Eyesight - Avocados help protect your vision because they are rich in lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidants found in the retina that keep eyes healthy. They also may help prevent age-related problems, like cataracts and macular degeneration.

Cancer fighter - Extracts from avocados kill or stop the growth of precancerous cells that lead to oral cancer and may have a similar effect on other cancers, according to a recent study. Researchers credit the fruit’s unique combo of nutrients-which include folate and vitamins C and E.

Benefits of avocado and tomato – Add avocado to salsa for a bigger health payoff. A study from The Ohio State University found that people absorbed four-and-a half-times more of the cancer-fighter lycopene from the tomatoes when avocado was added; the healthy fats help you absorb more nutrients.

Healthier fat - Add avocado to your sandwich. It has 4 grams of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat (which lowers cholesterol), 2 grams of fiber, and 1 gram of protein per ounce, making it a lower-fat, more filling substitute for mayo.

Peanuts and Weight Loss

admin — Sun, 30 Jan 2011 00:05:34 +0000

Dr. Oz The Right Diet for Me

Fava Beans

Now I know you always see those crazy ads that tell you about miracle foods that will help you lose weight. They talk about foods that actually burn more calories than the food contains etc. These suggestion though come from Dr. Oz and I think he is someone you can trust. Some of these foods are especially good at filling you up and some are good for keeping off belly fats. You will be probably be surprised to find peanuts and weight loss together in the same sentence but here they are. Eggs are another surprising addition. Read our post on Eggs and Weight Loss and find out why they are okay to eat.

Salmon – Salmon appears on so many lists of healthy foods meaning this one food has all kinds of benefits for your body. I would try to eat it at least once a week. You can get buy it in the can if it is too expensive for you to buy fresh and still get all the good health benefits. Dr Oz says the omega-3 fatty acids may help your body lose fat especially when coupled with exercise.

Eggs – Dieters who eat eggs for breakfast stave off hunger longer and eat less the rest of the day than the folks who load up on carbs at breakfast. I usually boil up a dozen eggs each week and they keep in the fridge just fine.

Peanuts - A small daily serving of peanuts – just 20 dry roasted nuts – can help keep your waist smaller. Dr. Oz says to make sure you substitute the nuts for a high-calorie food that is already in your diet. Peanuts are usually the cheapest nuts you can buy so this is another way you can stay healthy and keep your grocery bill down.

Apples - An apple before each meal wil make you less likely to over eat.Apples are packed with filling fiber but are not too high in calories. Here I think you need to be careful with size though. Some of the apples you buy in the grocery store are huge. Our store sells some of the kinds of apples in what they call “lunchbox size.” I would try to eat those small apples because the big ones will have too many calories. If you can only find the big one just cut them in half.

Fava beans - These creamy beans (see picture at top of post) are loaded with flavonoids that can help ward off belly fat. If you are not familiar with these beans, I can tell you they are used in Middle Eastern cuisine. You can find them in the international foods section of your grocery store or Middle Eastern food markets. They come in cans or in the dried bean form that you have to soak and boil before you can eat them.
