Sunday Is World Health Day

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Sunday is World Health Day.  The WHO (World Health Organization) has made this year's focus on health Hypertension.  High blood pressure can be insidious (can just 'creep up on you'), hereditary, or a result of unhealthy life styles.  Hypertension can lead to kidney failure, stroke, blindess, heart disease and death.  Get on the health wagon with the rest of the world this Sunday and do something healthy - eat right, exercise, meditate, have a few laughs.  If you haven't had your annual physical or had your blood pressure taken within the last few months, go get it done!  It takes less than 30 seconds and could mean the difference between life and death.

No Heat? Try Some Jumping Jacks!

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Many of us in the tri state area are still without heat or hot water....and we are the lucky ones to still have a roof over our heads.  If you're cold, and have electricity, turn the oven on to heat the house (like our mothers did over 40 years ago).  Still cold?  Try doing 20 jumping jacks at a time.  It will get your blood cooking and circulating and you'll do your cardiovascular system some good while warming up!  20 Jacks every hour for 8 hours....that's quite the cardio!  I'm taking a break for a few days, so I'll catch up with all of you on Tuesday.  Have a great weekend and stay safe and warm!  Over and out.

Establish Your Child's Palate Early In Life

It always fascinates me how many American parents offer garbage to their children at the meal table...luncheon meats full of synthetics and sodium,  mac n cheese that has nothing but fat and carbs and tastes like paste, hot dogs that are composed of byproducts you cannot pronounce, pizza that is nothing but dough, fat, sodium and heaven knows what else....the list goes on and on and on.  Many of these children have retarded culinary palates and few ever develop their taste buds.  The result?  They become fat children from what they are given to eat.  Childhood obesity leads to adult obesity.  These people become the adults who order the 2 slices of pizza for lunch, the donut or bagel for breakfast and the burger for dinner.  They develop diabetes, heart disease and other life threatening diseases.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day: Be a good parent and guard your child's health.  Help your child develop his or her culinary palate.  Serve fresh vegetables, fish, poultry, meats, legumes at the table.  Do not assume that because they are young they won't like 'adult' food...this is quite a silly and ignorant thought of most parents.  Offer fresh fruits for snacks and instead of pizza parties, cook a turkey breast and make fresh cranberry sauce and teach the kids how to make a turkey club...how sophisticated, healthy and tasty!

Quality Counts

This morning, I decided to be frugal with my breakfast.  I had some leftover protein powder, greens and amino acids that I had been taking before I discovered Shakeology.  So, in the true French tradition, I decided not to waste this stuff and switch my protein shake for the day.  What a mistake!  I was hungry an hour after breakfast and felt like I was 'missing' something from my nutritional intake.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  When it comes to nutrition, don't be cheap!  Buy the best quality you can on your budget.  You won't regret it! http://myshakeology.com/esuite/home/kmondesire

This is What I Eat For Breakfast

People ask me what I eat for breakfast.  Well, I'll tell you....Shakeology.  I've had plenty of protein/meal replacement drinks on the market, but I believe this one is the best for your health, and tastes pretty darn good as well.  I usually have my shake at 8am every morning and, unlike most replacement drinks that only stave off hunger for an hour or so, I'm completely satisfied until about 11am when I have a piece of fruit or small healthy snack.  Shakeology has everything you need in it:  probiotics, greens, reds, vitamins, proteins....the list is way too long for this blog.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Want to be able to do what I do in a day?  Start it right with Shakeology  http://myshakeology.com/esuite/home/kmondesire this is the site that has all the information about the product.  It comes with 2 cardio workout dvds, recipes, and if you choose a monthly autoship, the shipping is free.  Not a bad deal.  I did my research and am sharing this caveat with you today.  So, now you know what I have for breakfast every day!
