Do you cook with your kids?

A recent article by Lela Nargi on CivilEats.com says you should! And here's why.

"New research suggests that learning how to cook as a young person leads to better eating practices—and better health—later in life.

Then, in March, the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior published the results of a 10-year longitudinal study conducted by researchers at the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health. The aim of the study, which tracked more than 1,100 participants, was to answer a simple question: Can knowing how to cook as a young person lead to healthier eating practices in adulthood?

Lifestyle Matters. How we eat, move, sleep and manage stress has an enormous impact on health and longevity.

Health Tip #14: Don't Forget the Sunshine Vitamin!

Vitamin C, abundant in citrus and many other foods, shown to have host of health benefits. Nobel prize winning scientist Linus Pauling developed a protocol utilizing vitamin C that in 1996 was shown to reduce coronary calcium plaques by 15%, indicating a reduction coronary artery disease.

Vitamin C is also a potent antioxidant shown to quench free radicals and oxidative stress, protecting the body against pollutants. Because vitamin C is a biological reducing agent, it is also linked to prevention of degenerative diseases - such as cataracts, certain cancers and cardiovascular diseases. Vitamin C is most abundant in fresh raw fruits and vegetables and is destroyed by cooking. Good sources of vitamin C are green leafy vegetables, berries, citrus fruits, guavas, tomatoes, melons, papayas, etc.

Humans and all primates are unable to produce their own vitamin C, therefore it must be obtained through our nutrition. Vitamin C is required by our bodies to be able to make collagen which is a protein abundant in connective tissue, neurotransmitters, and steroid hormones.

Be well! See you at the market on Saturday!
