Before you peel that banana; take a moment to appreciate all its wonderful healthy qualities.

Each banana is full of Potassium, Folate and Vitamin B6 for your heart and bones. It also contains Vitamins A and C for protection. The banana is also packed with Fiber for regularity and Melatonin for adjusting your internal clock.

In fact, bananas are one of the foods selected to display the American Heart Association’s stamp of approval which is peachy-neato! This means that they meet the AHA’s standard for saturated animal fat and cholesterol because they have none!

Bananas are an inexpensive, wholesome fruit that even comes in its own germ-proof package. Even though it doesn’t matter a tinkers damn, bananas also contain only around 100 calories each. Seriously though, bananas are essentially one of those ‘real’ foods that you can eat without guilt!

HEARTBURN

Despite its name, heartburn doesn’t affect the heart. Heartburn is a burning feeling in the lower chest, along with a sour or bitter taste in the throat and mouth generally resulting from food that has gone down the ‘wrong way’.

Tips for preventing Heartburn:

• Drink a glass of fresh cabbage or celery juice everyday
• Drink raw potato juice (do not peel the potato). Just wash it and put it in the juicer. Mix the juice with equal amount water. Drink it 3 times a day.
• Sip 1 tablespoon of raw apple cider vinegar, mixed with a glass of water while eating. Do not drink any other liquids with meals.

Try these things next time you experience heartburn and things should be back to normal for you in no time.

Peas to Please!

Peas are awfully handy to have around. They can: regenerate the spleen, pancreas and stomach; balance digestion and reduce the effect of an overworked, excessive liver on the stomach; benefit the spleen and pancreas; reduce vomiting, hiccups, belching and coughing; cause diuretic symptoms and are mildly laxative. Peas may also be used for spasms, edema, constipation, and skin eruptions such as carbuncles and boils.
