I thought he’d go for the raspberries first, but that’s more Newton’s style. Satchel loves the carbs. Pictures will appear if I can get my camera. Copyright © 2008 white pebble.

Visit the original article at http://www.white-pebble.net/?p=4028.I just found this interesting tidbit in my evening browse. Interestingly enough, this summer, as my recuperation went along, I ate bowls of any kind of berry, constantly. Grapes too… bunches of those. Via The Cancer Blog According to a new study led by Dr. Gary Stoner, black raspberries may be effective against preventing the development of esophageal tumors. Powered by ScribeFire.

As I read Kendra James’ post at Diabetes Notes today, Fruit Kabobs Were The Highlight of My Day, I recalled the appeal of finger foods for Mother when she had Alzheimer’s.  Kendra tells of the fruit kabobs she had for lunch. Fruit and cheese kabobs that my 7 year old made. They were really good, just chunks of cheese and berries, bananas, apples and grapes on a bamboo stick. She had fun making them too!    It made me hungry reading about them. What can you think about for yo...

I’d asked to hear more about MONA-VIE … a drink Don and Carol sell, and Oprah lists as the world’s No 1 super-food. Specific benefits are described at the official MonaVie distributor information page.Over lunch … we shared MITA stories about the human brain’s capabilities and listened to Don and Carol’s amazing tales about MonaVie’s freeze-dried Acai berries. By the way … I’m told that’s pronounced ah-sigh-eee … and it’s a name worth remembering. Life is good with this antioxidant-rich acai berry drink!

The flavonols found in foods such as onions, apples and berries is the one responsible for the said association. Such were the findings of a multi-ethnic study conducted by a team from German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbruecke. The researchers also stated that theirs is the first study to examine prospectively specific classes of flavonols (quercetin, found in onions and apples; kaempferol, found in spinach and some cabbages; and myricetin, found mostly in red onions and berries) and pancreatic cancer risk. Of the three individual flavonols, they report that kaempferol was associated with the largest risk reduction (22 per cent) across all ...

An intriguing claim, because it's so often said that Mediterranean-style eating is super-healthful. Let's also admit it is a delicious way to eat: yes, pasta and bread is there, but it's balanced out by tons of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish and olive oil. The Stone Age way is a bit more spare: we're talkin' meat, fish, and lots of whole grains, berries and nuts. Nary a sliver of Parmesan in sight.However, the results of yet another study, this time from Australia, indicates Mediterranean-style eating is a good choice, especially for diabetics.

More specifically, what do your salads look like? If you say green, you might not be getting all the health benefits you can. Colours -- deep reds, yellows, purples, oranges -- are full of important nutrients that you might not be getting from plain old lettuce. One colour is especially good for you: berry red. Full of antioxidants, vitamins and oh-so-tasty, berries can be a great addition to salads, main dishes and pretty much anything else. Thought I like them on their own. My other favourite coloured produce includes bell peppers, eggplant, carrots, mangos and watermelon.
