I just finished watching Jamie Oliver’s TED Talk. Jamie is a chef
from England who I’ve long admired for his simple yet outstanding
recipes. My personal library is heavily laden with all his books.

But I admire him even more for the way he’s leveraging his
celebrity to bring the problems of the food industry into the
light.

It’s refreshing to see a foodie who’s promoting healthy eating and
who hasn’t been brainwashed with the low fat, high grain crap
that’s landed us squarely where we are today–fat, tired, and
unhealthy.

One of his big beefs is that, as a society, we’re not being taught
how to cook anymore. And if you can’t cook, it’s hard to eat well.
And we know the result! As a society we keep getting fatter and
sicker.

He also challenges people who CAN cook to pass it on, so here goes…

I’m giving you a recipe–one of my favorites–inspired by Jamie.
You’ll find it at the end of this message. But giving you a recipe
is like giving someone a fish. I also want you to learn HOW to fish.

If you don’t know what foods are bad and which are good, it’s
pretty near impossible to figure out which recipes are going to put
healthy meals on your table.

And there are so many half-truths and outright lies about what
constitutes healthy eating that we feel we have to do our part to
set the record straight.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, we’re turning you over to health
and fitness author Mike Geary. Mike tears down the myths about food
in a no-nonsense style that’s both informative and entertaining. He
used to be some sort of scientist, and he manages to wrap the
scientific evidence into an enjoyable read (not an easy feat).

It just so happens that when we asked Mike to give you a deal on
his book, it turned out to be his birthday on the same week. So to
celebrate, you can pick up a copy at half price until tomorrow.

The book is called Fat Burning Kitchen (FBK), but don’t let the
gimmicky title turn you off. It could just as easily be called The
Complete Guide To Understanding How Food Works In Your Body. (but I
guess that wouldn’t be as catchy)

FBK is applicable to anyone who wants to learn more about the
effects of food for any goal: fat loss, muscle gain, sports
performance or general wellness. Once you click over and read his
site you’ll be convinced of the thoroughness with which Mike
attacks the subject of nutrition and your health.

Finger Lickin’ Roast Chicken Ingredients: Whenever possible, buy organic, local and free range / pastured… • 1 small or medium organic and free range chicken
• 1 large red onion roughly chopped
• half a cabbage (any kind) roughly chopped
• 7-10 cloves of garlic, peeled and whole
• 1 lemon
• ample olive oil
• 1 tbs balsamic vinegar (optional)
• loads of Celtic sea salt and fresh ground pepper
• red wine or balsamic vinegar & water (optional for gravy)
• rice flour (optional for gravy)

Preheat oven to 475° F. Heap the onion, cabbage and garlic in the middle of your roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil. If you like, you can also drizzle your balsamic vinegar over the veggies at this point. Rinse your chicken and pat it dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. With a sharp knife, prick holes all over your lemon and stuff into the cavity of the chicken with your rosemary leaves. Cover the outside of your chicken with olive oil and rub thoroughly and liberally with Celtic sea salt and fresh ground pepper.

Then place the chicken on top of the bed of veggies in your pan. Pop the pan in the oven. Reduce the heat to 400° F. Baste after about 40 minutes. Total cooking time should be about 1 hour and 20 minutes. I like to use a meat thermometer. Insert into the thickest part of the chicken’s thigh, without touching the bone. Take the bird out when it reads 175° F.

The internal temperature will continue to rise. Cover your bird with foil and let sit for another 10 minutes.
Carve it up and serve on a platter with your favorite steamed veggies and wild rice.

Bonus Gravy… Remove excess fat by skimming off the top of the pan. Put the pan on a large burner and bring it to a simmer. Mash up all the veggies with a potato masher. Add a few glugs of balsamic vinegar and a half cup of water. Or you could use a half a cup of red wine. Let this simmer for a few more minutes, then sprinkle about a tbs of rice flour over the pan. Whisk vigorously until you reach the desired thickness and then remove from heat. Let it cool for a few minutes and then press it through a strainer.

Personally, I use a colander because I like a fairly chunky gravy. Add salt and pepper to taste.

5 A Day Day in Croydon Campaign: Decade of spending on health messages ‘has had little effect’ - Health News, Health & Families

Leading UK Nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston from Foods for Life says “It’s a little early to be saying that the Change4Life campaign has failed but there’s no doubt government needs to dramatically rethink the issue of holistic preventative health measures to save the NHS from collapsing into a black hole”

It’s been shown that stress and pain are irreversibly linked to fibromyalgia. In some cases, being under a lot of stress is what initally has triggered it. Fibromyalgia sometimes will manifest after a serious illness, or an emotional of some kind. Although not certain, a genetic tendency toward fibromyalgia appears likely, and many people believe that stress unmasks the disorder. Therefore, it makes sense to reduce stress to reduce fibromyalgia pain.

Fibromyalgia is believed to be a central nervous system disorder in which either pain-sensing nerves are overly sensitive, or the brain is very sensitive to pain impulses. Those who have this disease have poor functioning of the HPA axis-hpyophysis-pituitary-adrenal axis- in other words….. our body’s system for responding to stress with neurochemicals such as adrenalin and serotonin.

How pain sensation and an abnormal stress response are related is not known, but we do understand that people with fibromyalgia have increased pain when under a lot of stress.

It is very stressful just knowing you have fibromyalgia. Having to cope with chronic pain, fatigue and mental cloudiness is very challenging and difficult. It may affect a person’s ability to keep their job, which only adds to the stress. That can lead to financial difficulties as well. Because many people do not understand what you are going through, they may expect you to behave “normally”.

Learning how to cope with a chronic illness and lifestyle changes is stressful. That’s the typical daily stress load; adding anything to it often tips the scale and, as a result, the fibromyalgia symptoms will tend to get worse.

For these reasons stress reduction is crucial in managing your fibromyalgia. These ways may help alleviate some of it.

1. Take good care of yourself first This includes eating a nutritious diet with lots of fruit and vegetables, getting enough exercise and restful sleep. You won’t be able to do as much and may feel worse if you don’t look after yourself before anything else.

2. Be aware of your body so you can recognize your body’s cues that you are becoming stressed. Then you can make use of relaxation techniques or exercise in the early stages, before the stress gets out of hand. However, you don’t want to lose your protective lack of awareness about pain. Pay attention to how you feel so you can identify where you feel stress first. Does it start with your shoulders get tight? Once you have that figured out, you can scan to see if your body is showing signs of stress

3. You may find it helpful to keep a journal. A journal can be your tool to assist you in finding situations that cause tension so you can either avoid them in the future, or be better prepared to handle them if they can’t be prevented. Writing about the stressful event in itself can help you release it.

4. Practice stress management techniques. This can include meditation, deep breathing and visualization. These techniques reduce neurochemicals levels that circulate in your body, and help decrease both stress and pain.

5. Physiotherapy, massage and stretching can reduce muscle tension and stress and as a result keep pain at a minimum as well.

These are some was to reduce stress and reduce the fibromalgia pain as a result. Taking good care of yourself, which may require some lifestyle changes can reduce the incidents of flare-ups and give you a better quality of life.

The popularity of the French manicure is undeniable. Maybe it’s because of the versatility that is offered by a French manicure. They allow you to have groomed and polished looking hands without having to worry about picking a color. Picking a color is one of my least favorite things about getting a manicure, especially at a nail salon. I always end up picking a color that I don’t like once it’s on my nails.

Then I either have to live with the unfortunate color or embarrassedly ask the manicurist to change the color. That’s the beauty of a French manicure. There really aren’t that many decisions to be made. Sure you may have to choose between white and off white for your tips, or possibly have to choose between blush and beige for the base color; compared to having to choose between wild orchid or pink palm, that decision is for amateurs.

Another great think about the French manicure is that it usually lasts longer than a traditional manicure with color, if only because it shows fewer chips and imperfections. Also, I like that I don’t have to think too much about the color of my nail polish when choosing my outfits. Nothing is worse than having someone point out that my hot pink polish clashes with coral dress.

Now that I’ve sold you on the great art of French manicures, I will have to tell you that it is more difficult to give yourself a French manicure than it is to just paint your fingernails one solid color. I do have a quick fix as an alternative. If I am in a hurry, but still want my nails to look great. I will dig my fingernails into a bar of dove or ivory soap. Really and white soap will do just fine. Then, I wash my hands thoroughly. The soap really helps to whiten the tips of my nails. Lastly, I will quickly apply a clear coat of polish. The affects are not quite the same as taking the time to do an actual French manicure, but it works in a pinch.

Now if I have more time on my hands, I will give myself an at home French manicure. It’s not as great as getting one in a salon, but still a treat nonetheless. First I will soak my hands and scrub them well with an exfoliating scrub. Next I will trim and shape the nails. Then I will apply a base coat of polish to my nails.

When attempting to paint the tip of my nails, I have tried a couple of different things. In the past I have used those tape strips that you can buy in a French manicure kit. They don’t seem to work for me. When I peel the tape off, half the time the polish comes off with it. The other half of the time I find out that I have managed to paint underneath the tape. I’ve found that the thing that works best is to use a super thin brush, like an eyeliner brush. Next, I just take my time and apply a very light thin strip to the tips of my nail. After allowing the tips to dry, it’s time to apply the pink or beige top coat. Lastly, I apply a clear chip proof top coat to my new French manicure.
