We
Sunday visiting the Tzu Jan Vegetarian House in Escazu. It was a beautiful experience. First you get a rich while you get all the participants and then to start the cooking class. MAMA cantons explains what you are doing and Meichi, daughter us will translate all the details. They are a sea of \u200b\u200bwisdom , with about cooking, ingredients and the effects they have on our bodies. This time the issue of class was gluten free, gluten-free bone.







We
rice roll filled with soybeans and vegetables and some steamed sweet potato balls stuffed with vegetables. Commented about how important it is to peel vegetables if they are not organic , especially the tubers to be a root poque directly absorb all the chemicals used in cultivation. Of course I encouraged them to consume organic products because they do not contain chemicals and can consume your skin is where most stay nutrients from vegetables and fruits.

us sick with laughter and sympathy between jokes while we were told and encouraged us to chop, stir, peel, mix and test (this was the best time !). The group was fantastic, an incredibly friendly people, friendly and cheerful. After class, we all sat down to eat the treats that we had cooked under the supervision of MAMA (by the way is pronounced breast without an accent, because if you say in a tone means horse mom!).

The atmosphere was so nice that I end up not wanting to go. The vast majority of these ingredients can be found in Nature, and say the majority because the flavor and taste that gives MAMA probably will not get but waaaaay practice! As I was told this is the last class of 2010, and want it to be 2011 for another class asist TZU JAN. I recommend them!

O KALE KALE AND CANCER AMONG OTHER VIRTUES



Epidemiologists suggest that most cancers, 65 and 70%, are caused by factors associated with lifestyle, including the use of snuff, alcohol and diet. Up to 30% of cancers appear to be directly related to nutrition and another 30% to snuff. Therefore, smoking cessation and change in diet play a key role in primary prevention cancer.

Indole 3 carbinol (I3C) is a molecule found in cruciferous vegetables , that belong to the genus Brassica. you say? You do not understand anything of what I wrote? To translate all this scientific information? Well ... okay I'll do my best. First I tell you that in the genre Brassica are several plants, among the more common (I apologize if I may escape many): cabbage, sprouts brussel, bok-choi, Ruccula, watercress, broccoli, Romanesco, cauliflower, radish, Wassabi, and rutabaga. As a dietitian and tells the naturist Diana Dyer several studies show remarkable results on how the I3C prevents or stops the cancer process, transforms estrogen into a less trainer of cancer, partially blocking the cells, directly or eliminates cancer cells and inhibits reduces the levels of free radicals which stimulate the development of cancer by damaging DNA. It is a protector of the liver and helps fight diseases like Cervical dysplasia (pre-cancerous condition).

contains calcium and folic acid, is a good source of vitamin C (good for the immune system), A and K (which strengthens bones) so it is a good alternative to dairy. Rich in vitamin K6, and riboflavin that help prevent heart disease. Being high in fiber is coayudante in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, balance the levels of blood sugar and prevent constipation. It helps to have more healthy eyes avoiding falls, it contains carotenoids.

When I read all this research I remember my dad (whom I owe my good eating habits), saying at the table ... . 'Eat all the green that helps prevent cancer. " She never told me why, but now I understand that he was very right. So do not understand why we let the kale forgotten and rarely invite her to our table if it is so beneficial to us. to incorporate into your diet will leave two recipes to try and tell me (as I write this post I feel that in kale display tempt me taking them to test tonight).
