A Recipe For a Longer Life!
If you're a regular viewer of the "Today show" then you're well aware
that they did a whole week on living longer and one of the segments
involved Iceland.
Iceland, and other Scandinavian countries now boast the second longest
life span in the World, and who is first, you ask?
The Japanese, more specifically- Okinawa Japan.
And if you're wondering how does one live long like the Okinawans
or Icelanders, or the Cretes from Greece?
Well, you can attend some type of religious service, or you can
work past 65, or you can do some form of activity--dance, work in
a garden, socialize more, or diet.
Diet?
No- not a diet of 1,000 or 1,200 calories, but a diet of more vegetables, low-sugar fruits,
(green apples and berries)
good fats, ( grass-fed butter, avocados, olive, coconut or walnut oil) seeds and grains,
(flaxseeds, almonds, pistachios, and sunflower seeds) brown rice and oatmeal, coffee,
tea, red wine, good quality meats, and fish.
And to get you started- here's a recipe that will not only help you look younger,
it will also help you feel younger for yrs. to come.
The recipe: Fish with Zesty Salsa.
It's a combination of good fats, (which fight inflammation)
fruits and vegetables--(which nourish your skin and keep your heart strong)
Ingredients:
1 large avocado
2 tsp. lemon juice
1/2 red onion
1/2 red grapefruit, peeled, segmented and diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
salt and pepper
4 salmon fillets, (4 to 6 oz. each)
1 Tbs. olive or walnut oil
4 cups mixed salad greens
1 lemon, cut into wedges
====================================
Directions:
In a bowl, toss avocado with lemon juice.
Add the onion, jalapeno, salt and pepper, toss. Reserve.
Sprinkle some salt and pepper on the salmon, and place them in a skillet
with olive oil. Cook until lightly brown on both sides (about 2 to 3 mins.
each side or until they flake easily)
Take out 4 plates.
Place 1 cup of greens on a plate along with a salmon fillet,
and top with the avocado mixture.
Do this 3 more times.
Enough for 4 servings.
Not a fan of salmon? Try mahimahi fillets.
And lastly, if you want some more great info on ways to live longer
like the people of Denmark, China, Japan, Jamaica, Greece,
Spain, France and Italy, head on over to Amazon.com/the kindle store,
and type The Asian, French, Greek and Italian Rxs For
Super Longevity in the search bar.
Download the Ebook, and you may get another decade (or two) out of life.
Good Luck!
