Asparagus

Asparagus is a high in antioxidants, Vitamin K (decreases dark circles, increases bone mass among other things) and Folate.

It helps with the prevention of hair loss, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), high blood pressure, fatigue, toothaches (who knew?), kidney stones, and even prevents some cancers(especially lung cancer).

Asparagus is great for women in particular. It helps with menstrual cramps, nursing mothers for helping with milk production, and because it is high in Folate/Folic Acid, it can help prevent birth defects like Spina Bifida (incompletely formed spinal chord).

Asparagus isn’t known for being the cheapest veggie out there, but if you ask me, it’s definitely worth the cost for all of the benefits it provides for your body.

How to eat Asparagus? I recommend either baking or steaming this to get the most out of it’s nutrients.

Got Extra Baggage?

“Your body is the baggage you must carry through life. The more excess the baggage, the shorter the trip”

-Arnold H. Glasgow

Wow. Doesn’t this just make you want to work out, huh? Not that I like to think of my body as “baggage”, but this guy has got a point.

Breakfast Sausage chicken & apple by Applegate Farms

“Yum!”

That’s where I am going to start off about this little breakfast sausage. I like to eat healthy, or at least have the healthier alternative, but I also think food should taste great all at the same time. Possible? Yes.

Sausage that isn’t bad for you?

I usually try to stay away from anything that says “sausage”, usually because there is a higher fat content involved amongst who knows what else. I like the idea that this breakfast sausage is gluten-free, casein free, and there are no nitrates (natrual or added)! There are only a handful of ingredients in this product. That is a good thing, since that means it doesn’t have all of these artificial and harmful filler products included. The chicken that is used was never given any antibiotics or animal by-products.

This is no ordinary breakfast sausage. It is something you won’t feel guilty eating, doesn’t take long to cook (already cooked, so you are just warming it up) and again… it actually tastes great!
