Russia's Rx For Superior Health!

                      Eat The Russian Fruit For Better Health! 

When one thinks of the foods that are most popular in
Russia, what foods come to mind?
Caviar
Borsch
A salad of cucumber, tomatoes and dill.
Plov or Pilaf
And Watermelon.
Watermelon?
Yes, we were shocked as well, but apparently many Russians
enjoy the juicy Summertime treat even more than Americans
do. And if you, like the Russians- enjoy a slice or two of this delectable
fruit, look below and see how it (watermelon) can improve
your health.

The Watermelon Rxs:
a) Stronger Bones- The red interior of the fruit is called Lycopene,
a powerful antioxidant that builds and keeps bones strong.
b) Sun Protection- Tired of wasting money on sunscreen?
Watermelon, like other red fruits and veggies (tomatoes and red bell peppers) 
protect your skin against the Sun's harmful rays.
c) A Sleep Aid- Need a natural sleeping pill? Have a slice of watermelon 
about an hr. or two before bed.
d) A Sex Aid- Guys want to save money and possibly avoid the
side effects of Viagra and Cialis? Start eating up some watermelon.
It (watermelon) increases the body's production of arginine, an amino 
acid that boosts circulation, which improves arousal. And arginine also 
increases nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, and
what Viagra does. And lastly, arginine can also improve heart health 
and lower blood pressure. 
e) Beautiful Skin- Drinking 6 to 10 glasses of water a day may not
be possible for most of us, and it can also be dangerous. But, eating more 
fruits and vegetables like watermelon and cucumbers that contain
ample amounts of water is possible. Not only will the water from the fruit
keep you hydrated, but it keeps your skin hydrated as well. 
And hydrated skin looks better and more youthful.

That's it- 5 tips from our friends in Russia, on the healthful benefits 
of eating and juicing more watermelon.
One more thing...Better hurry, watermelon will be out of season here in
the U.S. and that means higher prices.

Good Luck!

Swiss researchers had hay fever sufferers picture themselves
high atop the Matterhorn, and in a few weeks, a number of the people
saw their sneezing, congestion, itchy and watering eyes abate or even
disappear.

Why the Matterhorn?
Researchers say the cold environment is allergen-free and when the subjects
imagine themselves there, that gets the mind working to making them feel
as though they really are allergy-free.

So, if you or a loved one is tired of Fall and Spring allergies and you want
relief, go to Google.com, type images in the subject line, and then
type Matterhorn. When you see the beautiful and majestic Matterhorn
mountains-visualize the cold, the snow falling, the skiing, and you being
allergy-free. Do this exercise a few times a week, for a few minutes
each time. 

That's it- your tip for ending allergies naturally, just think-
by visualizing, you'll be able to avoid the over-the-counter meds
that may or may not work and you'll certainly save money.
And with all the money you save by not buying meds, you may
be able to really take a trip to Switzerland and see the Matterhorn
in person.

Good Luck!

Italy's Rx For The Perfect Pasta!

                  Cook Pasta Like A Pro! 

Ever hear of the term "al dente?" It means to the tooth and it's
the way you should cook pasta, especially white pasta.

Why?
Cooking pasta less than the recommended time on the box,
and it (the pasta) is more firm and chewy, means there will
be less of an impact on blood-sugar levels.
And when your blood-sugar levels rise normally and not rapidly, means
there's less than a chance of you getting diabetes.

So, do like our Italian brothers and sisters, and cook your pasta
Al Dente!

Good Luck!
