What are you thinking about today?

Haven you thought lately that you aren't achieving your dreams?  That you may perhaps be not good enough?

I say ... YOU ARE good enough and you can achieve your dreams!  Yes, ALL of them, at anytime!!

When you think you can't, you CAN!

When you begin to believe your attitude will SHAKE the world!

A couple of sentences I tell myself all the time!!  Use them to become better, DO them when you may be feeling perhaps a bit drowsy on life.

    Almonds the amazing snack!!

    Crunchy, handy almonds have been sighted in many new breakfast, snack, and salad products as research continues to show their healthful qualities. So, when you're perusing the supermarket aisles during American Heart Month (February) or National NutritionMonth (March), or ANY TIME;  consider these three reasons almonds fit the bill as a perfect nutritional "boost" to meals and snacks:  

    1) New research supports almonds' ability to lower cholesterol. A study to be published Monday in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition provides more evidence that almonds are one of the most heart-healthy foods around. 

    The study finds that when directly compared to first-generation statins, a certain heart-healthy dietary approach including almonds is just as effective in lowering LDL, or "bad," cholesterol below the recommended range for heart disease prevention. 

    The approach, known as the "Portfolio" eating plan because it includes a variety of heart-healthy foods, included foods such as oatmeal, beans, olive oil, soy products, and a daily one-ounce handful of almonds. Researchers called almonds a "mini-Portfolio" because in and of themselves, they contain several components emphasized in the eating plan -- vegetable protein, fiber, plant sterols and other several heart-healthy nutrients. 

    According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than half of all American adults have cholesterol levels higher than they should be. 

    2) Almonds are nutritionally dense -- a quality emphasized in the government's latest Dietary Guidelines. Almonds are the most nutritionally dense nut, whether compared calorie per calorie or ounce per ounce. The recently released Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005 encourage Americans to choose nutritionally dense foods -- that is, to get the most nutrition possible out of the calories you eat. A one-ounce, 164-calorie serving of almonds, or about a handful, is an excellent source of vitamin E and magnesium, and a good source of fiber. It also offers heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, protein, potassium, calcium, phosphorous and iron. 

    In fact, according to a study in the British Journal of Nutrition last fall, individuals who added almonds as a snack to their regular diet increased their overall intake of several important nutrients. The study's researchers, from Loma Linda University in California, concluded that incorporating almonds into a diet may promote the natural displacement of less nutrient-dense foods, making the overall nutritional quality of the diet better. 

    3) Eating almonds may help maintain or even lose weight. A recent study in the International Journal of Obesity found that adding a daily ration of almonds to a low-calorie diet enhanced weight loss, as well as significantly improved risk factors associated with heart disease, when compared to a low-fat, low-calorie diet. Researchers cited almonds' heart-healthy monounsaturated fat as being very satiating, helping satisfy the appetite and prevent patients from overeating.

    Apple Cider Vinegar


    Beneficial ingredients in raw apple cider vinegar give it its power to make us feel better, look better and feel energized. Just look at some of the beneficial ingredients in raw apple cider vinegar:
    • Potassium – helps to prevent brittle teeth, hair loss and runny noses.
    • Pectin – helps to regulate blood pressure and reduce bad cholesterol.
    • Malic Acid – gives ACV the properties of being anti-viral, anti-bacterial & anti-fungal.
    • Calcium – helps create strong bones and teeth.
    • Ash – gives ACV its alkaline property which aids your body in maintaining proper pH levels for a healthy alkaline state.
    • Acetic Acid – It appears that this acid slows the digestion of starch which can help to lower the rise in glucose that commonly occurs after meals


    A Few Benefits of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar

    • 1 tablespoon of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar mixed in 4 ounces of purified water after a meal has been used as a natural remedy for heartburn and as a replacement for toxic heartburn medications.
    • Raw Apple Cider Vinegar may help improve bowel irregularity, thereby removing toxins from the body at a faster rate.
    • Helps clear up skin conditions and blemishes giving a smoother texture and complexion.
    • Raw Apple Cider vinegar may also help with joint pain and stiffness.
    • Apple Cider Vinegar helps to break down fats so that your body can use them rather than store them. For this reason, many diets include ACV in their regimen.
    • On a small scale, ACV was studied by researchers at Arizona State University. The preliminary study was published in the Diabetes Care journal. It reported that ACV helps reduce levels of glucose.
    Raw organic apple cider vinegar is even good for pets. It has been used to help control fleas and even promotes a healthy shiny coat.



    How do I take Raw Apple Cider Vinegar: 

    Mixed with another powerhouse of beneficial goodness,  honey, apple cider vinegar can be a tasty treat with very healthy benefits. This is a great drink for fast energy. Remember, the mother of vinegar will settle at the bottom of the bottle between uses. Be sure to shake the bottle well before pouring to include these healthful ingredients. In a large pitcher, add together:
    • 2 tablespoons of Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
    • 1 gallon of purified water
    • Raw locally harvested honey or agave nectar to suit your taste
    Raw honey or organic agave nectar is a great addition because of their health giving properties. They can help improve your energy, strengthen your immune system, and much more. And they taste great.
    You can also find apple cider vinegar in tablet or capsule form. However, I do not recommend these sources because they are a dried source and not living as the liquid is.
    Bragg's Organic, Unfiltered & Raw Apple Cider Vinegar
    Raw Apple Cider Vinegar is very strong so I always recommend diluting it with water. A good ratio is 1 tablespoon per 32 ounces of water for general use.
