Fruit Rx For The Hollywood Birthday Girl!

                      Eat and Drink This To Look and Feel Younger! 

It's official, as of two days ago, Ms. Jennifer Lopez is now 5 yrs.
away from the big 5-0. And if rumors are correct, Ms. Lopez
is doing everything in her powers to stave off the aging process.
Things like--giving up soda, giving up dairy and gluten and dancing
for 2 to 3 hrs. each day.

But wait, there's one more thing Ms. Lopez can do, and it's not only
something that's very popular in a lot of South and Central American
countries, but Thailand as well, what is it?
Eat more limes.

Yes, although lemons get all of the attention, limes only get recognized
as a way to garnish a drink or make a certain type of pie, (Key Lime)
but folks in Chile, Bolivia, Peru and Thailand know that the lowly 
lime can do a number of things to help you look and feel younger.
The scent alone can increase focus and attention levels, helping you to make
fewer mistakes at work or school. And as for your looks. it (the lime)
contains ample amounts of vitamin C, and it's a vitamin that you need
to keep skin smooth and supple.
And there's more--lime juice is also said to help keep your heart in tip-top
shape (low rates of heart disease in Thailand, Chile, and Ecuador) the juice
relaxes arteries and prevents the buildup of dangerous plaque.
And one more tip: Since Hollywood is a place that loves to
recycle, make sure to use some of the peel (clean it thoroughly) and grate
it into oatmeal, a smoothie, stir-fried veggies or a margarita
and you'll...
* Reduce or prevent the varicose veins on your legs
* Lower cholesterol levels 
* Lower blood pressure
* Protect your skin from the powerful rays of the Sun
* Prevent and even stop small strokes (Frankie Muniz, the
young star from "Malcolm in the Middle" suffered a few already)
* Stop constant dizziness
* Lower certain cancers like breast and prostate (men)
So, if you've been avoiding, ignoring or only using lime in your
cocktails, it 's time to change that and start using them on a regular
basis. 

Hey it's working for a lot of Spanish and Thai people.

Malcolm In The Middle Rx For Avoiding A Stroke!

                            Avoiding Strokes! 

Frankie Muniz, the former star of  "Malcolm In The Middle" had a mild stroke 
a few days before his 27th birthday.
Mr.  Muniz noticed that the vision in one eye was completely gone and his
speech became slurred.
Although Mr. Muniz claims to have never smoked or had a drink,
Drs. are baffled as to why it happened.
Well, believe it or not, research about 3 yrs. ago, says that smog
from living in big cities is causing strokes in the young, old,
black and white people.

Smog?
Yes, taking in the fumes from buses, taxis, delivery vans and endless
cars can raise blood pressure and that can cause an increase in strokes.
So, if you live in a big city and don't want to move or can't, there are
some things you can do to lower your risks-like...
a) Drink More Water-
That's right- many have heard about the benefits of water for great skin,
but it can flush out impurities from your system. But, not too much
water. Too much water can throw off the electrolytes and actually cause a
a stroke.
b) Spices and Herbs-
Adding spices and herbs like cardamom, ginger, cilantro, cinnamon,
basil, sage, marjoram and cayenne pepper. Why spices and herbs?
They relax arteries and help blood flow more easily.
c) Drink Up-
Tomato juice is a great beverage to help lower stroke risks.
Just watch the salty varieties and add some of the spices and herbs
mentioned above and make a delicious soup.
d) Don't Drink This-
Soda! Yes, it tastes great, but new research says that the caffeine in soda 
can tighten artery walls. What about tea and coffee? They won't raise
stroke risk, as long as you watch the sugar and milk. And avoid the scones,
danish, cinnabuns and donuts when drinking them.
e) Go Gently-
On the exercise. Running in a big city puts your health at risk in a number of
ways, but gentle exercise like Tai Chi or yoga is a great way to remove
inflammation from your system.
f) Watch The Fish Dinners-
Some baked salmon or trout is great for avoiding stroke, but deep fry it
and you raise your stroke risk considerably. Avoid the fried fish dinners,
make it once a yr. occasion.
g) Processed Food-
Enjoy frozen dinners, baked goods off the shelves, or other boxed foods
with 8 or more ingredients? Well, eat this way for yrs and yrs. and stroke 
risk goes up. Read labels and eat more fresh fruit, vegetables, lean
meats, coconut and olive oil.

That's it- And we're not saying big city living is the reason Mr.
Muniz had a stroke, but just wanted to let our readers know that
it may be a factor for you or a loved one.
