diet & exercise

[Guest guest]

Bob's statement that diet & exercise changes have a big impact on

general health is something that I strongly agree with; it impacts

your life physically and emotionally. Consuming as much raw fruits

and veggies that can purchase for the current season does wonders,

steam any veggies that you do not want to eat raw, juicing is

excellent. Also taking daily walks; (I do not have the energy for

other forms of exercise) you will have more energy and a clearer

mind. I recently eliminated meat, refine sugar and as much white

flour as possible from my diet. I am open for any suggestions with

eliminating white flour from my diet, other than rye bread all other

breads and pasta's seem to have some amount of white flour and we do

need fiber. I just try to pick foods that are low in white flour.

Listed are some herbs that I use, making herbal teas may be the

easiest and cheapest of all herbal remedies. Herbal teas can be made

by simply adding fresh or dried herbs to a pot, or cup of boiled

water. To begin, place 1 teaspoon of dried herbs per I cup of water

into a teapot or teacup using an herb/tea strainer ball, or a teapot

with built-in strainer. I prefer cotton muslin reusable tea bag. Add

boiling water, cover, and steep for 10 minutes. For teas with more

than one herb the general rule is to mix equal portions of each herb

and then use 1 teaspoon of this mixture. At least 3 cups a day are

needed to be effective.
