Good Morning America's Rx For The Fall!

                       Apples For Better Health! 

If you're a regular reader of this blog, then you may have read a post 

(or two) about Good Morning America's weekday anchor--George Stephanopoulos.
What about George, you're probably asking?
He eats an apple a day.

George is probably one of the few people who's taken this
advice...literally.
And if you're into Fall and the endless supply of apples, 

take advantage. 
Why?
An apple a day as the saying goes, does more than keep the doctor 

away, one a day can also...
* Help keep appetite under control.
 Eat one 20 mins. before lunch or dinner and you'll eat far less food. 

* Lose weight-
 With your appetite under control, you're bound to lose weight.
* Prevent Cancer- 

 Especially lung and colon cancer.
* Youthful Skin-
  A woman heated up apple slices with some milk. 

  She let the slices cool down and then applied them to her face.
 Long story short, her skin looked like a 20 yr's old after doing this 

 for 2 1/2 decades. Her age at the time she revealed this secret: 55.
  She started wearing apples at age 30.
  Eating them also helps.
* A Cavity Fighter-
 Concerned about cavities after eating some jelly beans or
 white carbs? Don't be- just make sure to eat an apple if you can
  get to a toothbrush. Apples help fight bacteria caused by 

  sweets, candy and other foods.
* Reduce Blood Sugar-
 Concerned about becoming a diabetic?
 Compounds in apples help your body use sugar for fuel and rev up 

 production of blood-sugar regulating insulin.
* Reduce Allergy Symptoms-
  Do you suffer from allergies come Spring and Fall?
 Try going gluten and dairy-free and eating more apples.
That's it-
Some more tips from the fruit that's been a favorite of newsman
George Stephanopolous for more than 3 decades.
Hey, this post could have been about Donald Trump,
the food he eats everyday, A cheeseburger. 


Good Luck!

A Television Watching Rx To Eat Less!

                             Stop Mindless Snacking! 

Ladies, (and guys), do you enjoy snacking while watching television?
Well, if you answered yes, then you'll love to know about the research
that was done on snacking while watching television.
What's the research? If you eat (or snack) while watching something 

boring, chances are you eat way more than you intended.

How so? 
The researchers say that watching something you're not fully engaged in
makes it all too easy to reach for food to pass the time and entertain yourself.
And if you want to change this one bad habit, the researchers say watch
something that keeps you riveted and interested.
Something like "Orange is The New Black,"" Scandal,""Breaking Bad, "
"How To Get Away With Murder", "The Black List" or "Chopped."
Oh wait, Chopped is about food, better leave the Doritos and salsa in
the fridge while this show is on.

Here's to less snacking and thinner waistlines.

Good Luck!

A Movie's Rx Fall Rx For Younger Skin!

                    Kill Bill To Look Younger! 

Any fans of Quentin Tarantino out there?
Well, if you're truly a fan, then you know that the
female martial arts film starring Uma Thurman and
Darryl Hannah was released about this time, 11 yrs.
ago. The film: Kill Bill Vol. 1.

And if you're a fan of entertainment gossip, then you may be
aware that Quentin and Uma are now dating.
Although there's only a 5 yr. age difference, Mr. Tarantino may
want to copy Uma's secret for looking 8 to 10 yrs. younger. 

Her secret:
Pumpkins,
That's right, October was when Mr. Tarantino released the 1st
Kill Bill movie and it's also the month when a lot of us carve and 

eat the pumpkin. 
But not Ms. Thurman, she wears the pumpkin. 
And if you really want to be progressive and ahead of your time,
then you should eat the pumpkin... mainly the blossoms.
Yes, the flowers that sit atop the pumpkin can help you look younger. 

The blossoms are chock-full of 2 skin-smoothing ingredients,
beta-carotene, which protects against and heals UV (Sun) damage,
and vitamin C, which increases cell turnover, minimizing fine lines
and wrinkles.

Look for the blossoms from pumpkins and squash (green and yellow)
at farmer markets or specialty stores. Clean them well and add to a salad.
Or stuff the leaves with ground meat (turkey or hamburger) and cheese
(ricotta or mozzarella) close them up with toothpicks, top with 

sauce and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Or stir fry them with veggies, 
meat, or chicken or fish.

And if you want more tips on how to use up that Halloween
pumpkin, go to Amazon.com.the kindle store and type 

Orange is The New Green in the search bar. Download it
and get started on your path towards better health. 


Good Luck!

AGT' Rx For Preventing Colds!

                           Sing To Prevent Colds! 

Ever hear the expressions, sing for your supper?
How about, sing like a canary?
Well, if you're a fan of America's Got Talent, then you're well
aware that the singer Emily West was beat by a magician

named Matt Franco, (any relation to James, just wondering)
But don't feel bad for Ms. West, we're sure someone out there
will help her become a successful singer.
And there's another reason you shouldn't feel bad for Ms. West,
the reason: being a singer means she's less likely to get colds and the flu
during the Winter months.

What does that mean?
Singing, whether it's done on a stage in front of thousands
or singing in the shower,   it (singing) raises the number of
antibodies in your system, providing you with the first line of
defense against invading viruses (germs) and bacteria.

And for those who want to know if there's anything
besides singing that'll help prevent colds, the answer is yes.

Those things...
a) Eat breakfast.
Just make sure it's a breakfast that'll boost health and
not donuts, cronuts, canolis, or danishes. Make it an egg,
broccoli, mushrooms and garlic stir-fry, a fruit/veggie
smoothie or some plain yogurt, fruit, & nuts.
b) Yoga or Tai Chi-
For some reason, gentle exercises boost your immunity
better than 5 miles of running or weightlifting for an hour each day.
c) Listen To Dr. Oz-
The good doctor says- to cut down on the number of colds
you get each yr. you may have to give up or cut way down on the
amount of sugar you eat. Salt gets the bad rap, but eat a lot of sugar
and you'll do considerable damage to your immune system.
Eat more fruit, or air-popped popcorn, nuts, or drink more...

tea with cinnamon or water to help shut down sugar cravings.

That's it- 4 tips to help you prepare for this yrs. cold and flu season.
And if you want even more great tips on how to bolster your immune
system, head on over to Amazon.com/the kindle store and type
The World's Best Secrets To Boosting Immunity.
Learn how the people of New Zealand, Australia, France,
Germany, Austria, China, Japan, Spain and Greece avoid
colds this time of year.

A Fall Movie Rx's For Looking and Feeling Great!

                           Fall Movie Tip! 

Now that the Summer is over, it's time for warm sweaters, apples and apple cider,
shorter days, heartier meals (like beef stew) and Fall movies. 

And if you're into movies with great plots and great acting, you may
want to check out "This Is Where I Leave You!"
A movie about 4 siblings who meet up after their father dies.
The movie features half of Hollywood, (only kidding) stars
like Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Connie Britton, Dax Shepard,
Abigail Spencer and Jane Fonda. 

And if you do go, make sure to pay special attention to Jane Fonda, 
why?
She's now 76 and looks better than ever.
Ms. Fonda was asked recently, what helps you stay so vibrant
and young looking.
Her answer wasn't the usual diet, yoga, cosmetic surgery, 

no- Ms. Fonda uses the same beauty secret used by Penelope
Cruz.
What is it? 

Sleep!
That's right, Ms. Fonda says she gets 8 to 9 hrs. of sleep a night.
And if you don't think an extra hr. or two of sleep (each night) will
help, you're wrong.
In addition to helping you look a few yrs. younger,
6 and 1/2 hrs. of sleep to 8 hrs. of sleep each night will also...
* Help you turn back the clock. Want to spend less time
  applying moisturizers, creams and lotions?
 Sleep more and you' ll see fewer wrinkles.
 They don't call it "beauty sleep" for nothing. 

* Help you solve difficult problems. (Make sure kids get
   between 7 to 9 hrs. of sleep each night. It (sleep) helps them
  in school.
* Weight maintenance- struggling with a sweet tooth or carb
    cravings? More sleep may be the answer to conquer your
    expanding waistline.
* Lower Rates of certain diseases.
   Concerned about becoming a diabetic? Or getting breast,
   uterine or colon cancer? Sleep more and reduce your rates
  of ever getting any type of disease. Especially important:
  Get to sleep before 12:00 am and make sure the room is
   totally dark.
* Cold Season--another sign of Fall? More colds, you can really
   give your immune system a boost by sleeping more. 

So, if you thought that 4 to 6 hrs. of sleep was enough,
take a cue from Ms. Fonda and Penelope Cruz and go to bed
earlier and get up later. Your body, mind, soul and appearance
will thank you.

Good Luck!

The Friend's Rx For Successful Weight Loss!

                         Lose Weight With A Friend! The hit show--"Friends" got its start about 20 yrs. ago, and
if you're a fan you can still catch it today, thanks to reruns.
And thanks to new research, if you have a best friend like
Jennifer Aniston, (her BFF is Courtney Cox) that friend can
help you lose weight and keep it off. 

How? 

You know the old saying, having a good support system
("Friends") around in times of trouble, will help you get
through those troubling times more easily.
Well, the same can now be said about weight loss.
Dining out and sitting across from a friend or (family member)
who's really into health, means you're more likely to order salad,
baked or broiled fish or chicken and brown rice.
The researchers say that you ordering healthier fare isn't
just peer pressure, seeing a good friend or family member
ordering something healthy , makes you want to do the same.

So, if you're struggling with weight and having a tough time
with temptation when dining out, start going out with
a healthy friend or family member.

Good Luck!

The Hollywood Cheapskates Guide To Looking Your Best!

                          Save Your Money and Still Look Good! 

Although many stars are rolling in the dough, that doesn't mean
they're willing to spend it all. 

Who are these stars?
Jay Leno.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
David Schwimmer
Tiger Woods
Jennifer Garner
And according to a recent report, Jennifer Garner isn't letting
her daughters have cellphones. (Just wait a yr. or two, she'll
change her mind)
If you're like  some of the stars and you like to shop for bargains,
or use coupons, you may want be interested in the two tips listed below. 

These 2 tips will not only save you money, they'll also improve the
way you look.

The money saving tips,
* Expired Sun Screen.
Think that sunscreen you have sitting in the cabinet
is of no use to you? 

You're wrong, don't apply it to your body for protection from
the Sun, use it to shave your legs and underarms. 

Yes, sun screen that's expired can help your legs look silky smooth
and clean shaven.

Now on to tip no. 2- 

* Old T-Shirts-
Or even new ones, can help end the nightmare of frizzy hair.
Yes, it sounds odd, but a woman asked her stylist what she could do 

to tame her frizzy locks?The stylist replied--take a T-shirt, and dry your 
hair after washing it. The thin material from a T-shirt doesn't beat up hair
like towels do. And after drying your hair, wrap the T-shirt around your 

hair as you would a towel.
And if you're out and about, and aren't able to wash your hair, carry a
few dryer sheets with you, why? New or used dryer sheets can
also help tame your frizzy locks.

So, if you think that you don't have anything in common with
any stars, think again, you hate to spend money on things you
don't need and so do the stars... listed above.

Good Luck!
