Watch: Food is Medicine!
|
 |
Not only does it taste great, and is fun to cook with, Asparagus has been known for centuries to have beneficial medicinal properties.
Nutrition studies have shown that asparagus is a low-calorie source of folate and potassium. Its stalks are high in antioxidants. "Asparagus provides essential nutrients: six spears contain some 135 micrograms (µg) of folate, almost half the adult RDI (recommended daily intake), 20 milligrams of potassium," notes an article in Reader's Digest. Research suggests folate is key in taming homocysteine, a substance implicated in heart disease. Folate is also critical for pregnant mothers, since it protects against neural tube defects in babies. Several studies indicate that getting plenty of potassium may reduce the loss of calcium from the body.

Watch: A healthy way to have FUN! Stand Up Paddle Surfing
|
|
You always admired those surfers with the slim but muscular bodies who made riding waves look easy.
But it’s not easy; it takes a long time to learn.
This has changed with the introduction of modern Stand Up Paddle Surfing (SUP). Long and wide stable boards make it easy to learn. And best of all, you can do it anywhere where there is water – no need for waves (until you get better). SUP is the fastest growing sport in the world. And there is a reason for that – it is a lot fun!
It is also a terrific exercise which will make your tummy flat in no time.
And yes, it is very relaxing. It has been called "meditation in motion". |
