Artichokes and Garlic News

A lot of people enjoy eating artichoke leaves with some clarified butter or olive oil. But did you know that artichoke leaf extract can be used as a medicinal supplement? Its true, according to research presented in a new column entitled, Artichoke Leaf for IBS and Indigestion. But theres more to the story than the title suggests. It appears that artichoke extract may also promote cardiovascular and liver health.

I was also interested to read about how to use garlic to support a healthy heart. Theres a lot of debate about whether garlic truly is a useful food with regard to high cholesterol, hypertension and to improve circulation. These days, many doctors claim that its pretty much useless. Not so, according to The Truth About Garlic and Heart Health.

Youve got to stay up to date on this kind of material or you cant put it to use! I hope you find it to be helpful and informative.

Instead, it seems almost to have evolved from different sources, and his name was almost by osmosis rather than a real basis in fact.

Stressed? Maybe ornithine can help. Or is this study just a hoax!? Sounds like marketing shenanigan, right? "Lower Cortisol, Higher DHEA, Better Sleep W/ Only 400mg of Ornithine Pre-Bed." Ok, if it was marketing it would probably say "with only 5g of ornithine." I mean, 400mg thats not enough to generate significant revenues - is it? But before we get to the marketing side of things, lets first look at the science, researchers from the Research Laboratories for Health Science & Food Technologies present in a recent paper in the Nutrition Journal , an open-access journal which charges scientists a certain fee for processing their papers.

CrockPot Dolmas Recipe

Day 344. Jessica emailed me a few weeks ago and asked if I had a crockpot dolmas recipe. I didnt, but I do now! These are super easy, fun to make, and even more fun to eat. I was floored at how many my kids ate---they really liked them a lot. The Ingredients. 1 jar grape leaves (8oz of leaves, in juice, near the pickles) 1/2 pound ground lamb 1/2 pound ground turkey breast 1 cup cooked white rice 1/2 cup chopped parsley 2 lemons 1 egg 1 tsp allspice 1 tsp dill The Directions .

Mix well with your hands to combine. Drain and rinse the grape leaves. Put a sm...
