This delicious fruit is packed with essential potassium, fiber, Vitamin C, B-6 and monounsaturated fat.  Though the fat content of the avocado is high, the fat that it contains is referred to as healthy fat, monounsaturated fatty acids which is the type of fat said to help in the reduction of bad cholesterol levels in ones blood which in turn causes lower risk of heart disease and stroke.  So on that note, how about adding avocado slices to your salad or using avocado as a spread on your sandwich, or make a creamy vinaigrette avocado dressing.

Ginger Ginger great for a Multitude of stomach ailments

So I woke up in the morning to a punch in the stomach, and heartburn.  This one ran to the middle of my chest down the the top of my belly button.  An hour later I am at work laughing and playing with my toddlers.  What did I do?  Good old natural Ginger root tea.  16 oz worth would do the trick, along with drinking 12 ounces of room temperature water before and after drinking the tea.

Tea:

• 1/2 a thumb size of Ginger root coarsely grated, pounded, or thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
• 32 oz water.

In a small pan, put water and ginger to boil until water is reduced to half the amount.  Add sweetener and sip.  Just the action of sipping this brew will make you feel like you are snuggling under your favorite blanket that you just laundered.  Inside and outside comfort
