Soon it was the next day and the aroma of the olive oil, the potatoes coming through with the fish that for some reason has a pleasant aroma, not a fishy one. It still makes me think of home when I make it and all my good thoughts come through of my Portuguese Home of the past with my parents

Miracle Energy Burst - Homemade - Healthy
Good For: Hypoglycemia, but a great pick-me-up drink and homemade and good for you.
Hypoglycemia is low blood sugar. It occurs when the level of sugar, or glucose, in the blood drops too low to fuel the body.
Att: Do not drink this 4 hours before sleeping.
******************************************************************************************************************************

Makes 200 to 300 ml

What is low blood sugar?
You may have briefly felt the effects of low blood sugar when you've gotten really hungry or exercised hard without eating enough. This happens to nearly everyone from time to time. It's easy to correct and usually nothing to worry about.
But low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, can also be an ongoing problem. It occurs when the level of sugar in your blood drops too low to give your body energy.
What causes hypoglycemia in people who don't have diabetes?
Ongoing problems with low blood sugar can be caused by:
Diseases of the liver, kidneys, or pancreas.
Metabolic problems.
Certain medicines.
Alcohol use.
Stomach surgery.
Att: Please Note:
If your hypoglycemia is caused by a longer-term health problem, you may need treatment for that condition. There also may be steps you can take to avoid low blood sugar. For example, talk to your doctor about whether changes in your diet, medicines, or exercise habits might help.

Research Finds Commercial Energy Drinks Have an Immediate Health Impact
he options for a quick caffeine boost keep pouring in.
The energy drink industry is projected to reach nearly $20 billion in sales this year thanks to its most popular customer: Teenagers.
But according to new research, that energy burst comes with a consequence: Potentially dangerous health problems, especially among teens and young adults.
That has experts concerned.
Dr. Mary Claire O'Brien is one of 18 researchers who recently petitioned the Food and Drug Administration to restrict caffeine in energy drinks because they could be dangerous for young adults.
"They are more sensitive to the effects of caffeine, in part because their body mass is lower and in part because majority of them are caffeine naive compared to adults," O'Brein explains.
A new study shows energy drinks have an immediate impact on heart rhythm and cause an increase blood pressure.
While most adults can tolerate this slight change in heart rate, teens' inexperience with caffeine makes their reaction stronger, with the potential to cause severe cardiac events especially among those with heart problems.
Many energy drinks are classified as dietary supplements, and therefore have no limit to the amount of caffeine they can contain -- unlike sodas.
"We don't think its safe based on the science, and we don't agree that the case has been made by the manufacturers that the levels are safe," O'Brein argues.
The American Beverage Association says research shows teens and young adults consume, on average, a third of the amount of caffeine as people over 21.
The FDA says evidence suggests it may be advisable for teens to limit their caffeine consumption. They are assembling a panel of experts to discuss the topic.

Magic Diet Soup "2" - Lose Weight Fast, Low Gi.
Magic Diet Soup "2" - Lose Weight Fast, Low Gi.
Diet Soup, a complete meal in it's self. Lose the weight fast or just maintain it, it worked for me......
Start with having the soup 3 to 4 times a day, with fruit and salad in between for 1 weeks. Eat a low calorie breakfast like whole wheat porridge or whole breads with low fat butter or jam, fruit will be ok, but no bananas. For a snack if your hungry have some raw veggies or fruit, but no mango. Also have some tea without sugar, coffee (if you have to), but no sugary drinks at all.
After that do this for once a week and on the rest of the days, follow low GI Diet....
I hope it helps whoever needs it...

1 to 2 tsp. - Nutmeg.
1 to 2 tsp. - Cumin.
2 to 3 tsp. - Oregano.
1 to 2 tsp. - Black pepper.
2 to 3 - Green onions.
Salt to taste..............
For more information please see video below.
***************************************************************************************************************
Just look at all the great veggie here, that is not only good for your weight loss but you know it is good for you.
Here was using a celery root to substitute the potato to give you some form of fullness so you will last longer and not get hungry so fast, Also this root is low in GI and that's what you want here.
This soup is number 2 in the Magic Diet series to lose weight fast so I added some carrots to it. Now cooked carrots is a medium GI not like the first soup Magic Diet # 1 for there is no carrots.
The cabbage is where it gets down to lose the weight and reduce the fat, that's why it's the main ingredient here with the soup.
Now some people with have a weak system detesting the cabbage and it could cause some cramping because of the extra ruffage. So if you find that this is the case then just cook it a little longer to break down the fibers even more.
Now go ahead and add whatever herbs and spices that you would like and you like best. I have designed this soup to give you the best flavor and taste to keep it from being boring, but maybe you would like to add a personal touch to it.
Now remember to keep the salt as low as possible for after all this is a diet soup. If you want to bump up the taste then add more herbs and spices.
Remember to make a large pot of the soup so you will have enough to finish off the fast diet program.
This soup also freezes very well and in this way your supply will never run out and will be ready to use at any time.

!! Attention !!
Before attempting any diet, you should consulate a Medical Doctor. For I' am just showing "How it worked for me"...
It is an easy to follow diet. Although not suitable for lasting weight loss, the Cabbage Soup Diet is a high-fibre, low-fat diet that will help you get into shape fast before you embark on a more sensible long-term diet plan. The cabbage soup is really filler, making sure that the dieter does not get the feeling of starvation or hunger pangs.
Cabbage soup diet is recommended for more 7 days straight. The Soup Diet is very low in protein, complex carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals to continue for a long period of time.
Attention
Now the cabbage soup diet is not recommended as a long term diet plan, if you have a special occasion coming up, or you simply need to lose weight fast, the Cabbage Soup Diet could well be just what you need. Although really not suitable for long-term weight loss, the Cabbage Soup Diet is a low-fat, high-fibre diet that will help you get into shape fast before you embark on a more considered and sensible long-term eating plan.

Does Eating High Cholesterol Food cause High Blood Cholesterol?
I have been meaning to write this post for awhile, but i kept skipping it because i had other posts to make. Then 2 weeks ago, i met a certified fitness trainer (he has like 6 or 7 different certifications) and we were talking and he mentioned "i told my client not to eat eggs and seafood because it causes high cholesterol". Now, i am sure many of you out there have also heard the same statement how red meat, eggs, prawns, sotong and of course, santan are all high cholesterol foods. And therefore consuming them will cause your blood cholesterol levels to go up. So to stay healthy you should avoid all these foods.
I understand why many people still believe this - its because many years ago, scientist and doctors believed that this was true. They did a bunch of basic experiments and based on those results they came up with this. However, with our better understanding of science today, we are realizing that many of these statements are no longer true. With better research and technology today, we are able to conduct better experiments. Lets put it this way. Research indicates that 90% of people will die on a bed. Does this mean that sleeping is dangerous for you? When you take things in isolation, it just doesn't make sense. But you can't just take 2 elements and stick together just because there is a slight correlation.
Now, does eating high cholesterol food raise the cholesterol level in your blood? Well lets find out what cholesterol is first and whether we need it. Cholesterol is an essential component of our cell membranes and it acts as an anti-oxidant as well as a precursor for the synthesis of vitamin D, bile for digesting fats. It is the only source out of which our steroid hormones, such as cortisol, as well as estrogen, progesterone and testosterone which are key to reproduction, can be made. Cholesterol is also the precursor to calcitrol, the steroid hormone that regulates calcium levels in our bodies by helping us absorb calcium from our food, thus playing a key role in the mineralization of our bones and teeth. Sounds important? Therefore it is safe to say that without cholesterol you would not survive. Now of course, with everything good, too much of it is bad. But does your diet really cause high blood cholesterol?
The fact is, your body manufactures 80% to 85% of your body's cholesterol needs. The remaining 15% - 20% comes from external sources or your food. When there is too much cholesterol coming in from external sources (from eating) your body will adjust and reduce the amount of production. Its like a thermostat in an air cond. When the room gets cold, it shuts off the AC and only turns on again when the temperature goes up. Unfortunately, many people who have high blood cholesterol today, they have a problem with this thermostat and their body is unable to control the amount of cholesterol produced by your body. So it is just running on auto pilot despite the amount of cholesterol you are eating. This is why there are many people who eat healthy diets their whole life and abstain from high cholesterol food, yet they are diagnosed with high blood cholesterol before the age of 40. And many others who have always consumed high cholesterol foods since young, yet their cholesterol levels are perfectly fine.
So what causes this "thermostat" to stop working? The answer, no one knows. Most probably its just plain genetics. If you have parents and grand parents who are suffering from high cholesterol, chances are, you too may be affected. So get yourself checked often.
Now of course if you already have high blood cholesterol, i would not recommend you to continue eating foods high in cholesterol. YES, you will want to turn it down. BUT this does not mean that eating high cholesterol food causes high blood cholesterol. It doesn't mean the same thing at all. So how do you lower you blood cholesterol levels? Here are a few ways
1) Taking statin drugs - If your cholesterol levels are critical, then the use of statin drugs may be your only hope. Of course, statin drugs have a whole lot of side effects on their own, but thats a discussion you should have with your doctor. Not your personal trainer
2) Increase intake of fish oil - Eating lots of fish is good for you and in fact people are starting to notice that cultures which consume a lot of fish, live a lot longer than those who don't. You can also take fish oil supplements that come capsules. It really does help a lot.
3) Increase intake of soluble fiber - Latest research indicates that diets high in soluble fiber help to lower blood cholesterol levels. Now before you ask, let me explain. Soluble fiber is different from insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber attracts water to it, and turns to a gel like substance when wet. Insoluble fiber is usually found in vegetables and just helps to add bulk and of course help with you doing your "business" everyday. Soluble fiber can be found in foods such as oat bran, barley, nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, peas, pears and some other fruits and vegetables.
So there you have it. The low down on cholesterol and it is not caused by eating high cholesterol food. I would recommend that you do a blood check every 2 to 3 years and check with your doctor on what is the best solution for you. Now latest research is also showing that high blood cholesterol does not cause heart attacks, but heck, that is another discussion all together. As usual, look forward to hearing your comments.
