There are many important things that we need to teach children as they grow-but they have many natural behaviors that we shouldn't try to change. In fact, we could learn a few things from kids! Here are some important lessons: Eat when you are hungry. From the time they are born, babies know when and how much they need to eat-and they cry to let us know too! As they grow, this important instinct can be un-learned. By the time they are adults, they may have learned to eat for many other reasons besides hunger-mealtimes, tempting food, stress, anger, boredom, and countless other triggers. By recognizing the difference between needing to eat and wanting to eat, adults can re-learn when and how much to...

Food Pyramid
For those of you who don't know, the food pyramid is a carefully drawn up plan of exactly what the human body needs nutritionally.

There is a lot of demand for Indian-Chinese food. Indian-Chinese cuisine emerged as a result of the migration of Chinese to the Indian subcontinent many decades ago. Most came from the Indo-China border for, among other reasons, employment and political refuge. As with Indian cooking, Chinese cooking is provincial and the staple is rice. Some regions use more spices than others, and the types of dishes vary. But when Indians went to Chinese restaurants in India, they were looking for spicy Chinese food. What emerged was a cuisine that merged Indian spices, which suited the local tastes, with classic Chinese recipes and cooking techniques. In addition, dishes evolved that suited the large Indian...

Antioxidants Naturally Found in Foods
Why do we need to eat foods that are found to be naturally high in antioxidants? What are antioxidants? Which foods do we need to eat, in order to naturally fight free radicals? Scientists have found that the body forms unstable oxygen molecules, called free radicals; every cell produces tens of thousands of them each day. A free radical is basically an atom with an odd number of electrons in its outer ring. Since electrons have a very strong tendency to exist in a paired rather than an unpaired state, free radicals indiscriminately pick up electrons from other atoms, which in turn convert those other atoms into secondary free radicals, thus setting up a chain reaction, which can cause substantial...

Experiencing Costa Rica!
We have just returned from a trip to the coffee farms of colorful Costa Rica! As our airplane landed at the international airport outside of San Jose, it was dark already. Our flight was late out of Miami, but we were still excited to finally get to Costa Rica. Then reality hit us! We needed to get to the Siempreverde (meaning 'always green') Bed and Breakfast on our own, ruling out our initial plans of renting a car.

As we were walking toward his cab, we spied a hand-made sign with our names on it! Two wonderful people from the DOKA Plantation stayed up late and...

My husband has MS, and I have Diabetes. Researching health issues has become a "hobby" of mine. I am always interested in health issues. I am especially interested in soy because I am constantly looking for protein to balance my diabetic meals. I am not a meat eater, although I am not a vegetarian either.

The Diverticulitis Diet Defined
Diverticulitis develops from a condition called diverticulosis. If you're older than 40, it's common for you to have diverticulosis - small, bulging pouches (diverticula) in your digestive tract. In the United States, more than 50 percent of people older than 60 have diverticula. Although diverticula can form anywhere, including in your esophagus, stomach and small intestine, most occur in your large intestine. Because these pouches seldom cause any problems, you may never know you have them. A low-fiber diet is considered to be the main cause of diverticular problems. First diagnosed in the United States in the early 1900s, and now common throughout developed countries, the emergence of...
