- Why Cook Organic
[Food-and-Drink:Cooking-Tips] There is no better reason to cook organic then for the main fact that it is so much healthier for you. Organic foods are free of man-made chemicals, poisons, and pesticides. The best food choices for your health are simple and fresh organic foods that are cooked to maintain their vital nutrients.
- Garlic! What it is & What it Does
[Health-and-Fitness:Nutrition] Garlic is a source of selenium, which must be present in the body for proper immune response, and which acts as an antioxidant in combination with vitamin E. Rich in potassium, zinc, selenium, and Vitamins A & C. It helps keep blood clots from forming in the blood vessels, and from having plaque building up in coronary arteries.
- Cinnamon Equals Better Health
[Food-and-Drink] All cinnamon is not created equally. That old jar of cinnamon from 10 years ago in your kitchen spice rack probably won't be nearly fresh enough to confer the full benefits that fresher, organic (non-irradiated) cinnamon stick or its powder recently ground can. Generally speaking, ground cinnamon stays fresh and most potent for up to 6 months from grinding, and cinnamon sticks can keep for 2-3 years.
