FOOD INFORMATION
PISTACHIO NUT
Did you know this little nut contains Phytosterols, a substance that blocks your body from absorbing cholesterol?
Using pistachios daily could help prevent arteries from clogging, keeping your arteries clean, a big help for a healthy heart.
SIMPLE RULES for good health
Eat fruits, vegetables, and whole grain.
Stay away from white sugar, white flour, and white bread. The saying goes “if its white don’t bite”.
LIVER DISEASE
One of the leading cause of liver disease in the USA and Canada is not alcohol, nor hepatitis.
Acetaminophen is the problem. Tylenol has the ingredients’ along with other pain killing drugs. Some pain killing drugs have ibuprofen, (Advil, Motrin 1B) which can cause blood pressure, hard on the stomach, liver and kidneys, when used long term. Always check with your Doctor.
After about 15 years, Health Canada has come out with a new Food Guide. Included in the guide is advice for different ages and stages of your live (children, women of childbearing age, men and women over 50).
Some recommendations are;
Eat at least one dark green and one orange vegetable each day.
Vegetables, fruit with little or no added fat, sugar, salt.
Have vegetables and fruit more often then juice.
Make half your grain products whole grain each day Choose grain products that are lower in fat, sugar or salt.
Drink skim, 1%, or 2% milk each day.
Select lower fat milk alternatives.
Have meat alternatives such as beans, tofu often.
Eat at least 2 Food Guide Servings of fish each week.
Select lean meat with little or no added fat or salt.
IRRADIATION
Food manufactures are permitted to irradiate potatoes and onions to inhibit sprouting; wheat flour to control insects; and ground spices and dehydrated seasonings to reduce microbial content.
In 2005 The European Civil Society released a statement against irradiation stating, "Food irradiation is often used as a substitute for good sanitary practices and misleads consumers, as it kills spoilage bacteria, which tells people when food is rotten through smell or sight"
"The American and Canadian public is justifiably concerned over the unknown effects of irradiation food." Rosalie Bertell, PhD.
Where possible we should buy locally grown foods. As a rule your food is fresher, better flavour, picked within a day of your purchase. Local produce more likely has a higher nutrient content than store-bought produce that has spent time on a transport truck and warehouse. Further farmers who sell directly to local customers receive the full value for their product, can sell cheaper, as there is less cost to processing, transportation, packing, warehouse etc.
Recall lists
Given the investigation into the outbreak is ongoing, it's best to check recall lists daily to see what has been added. Updates and background information about the recalls are available at;
fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/salmonellatyph/faq.html.
RECALL ALERTS
Have you unsafe products in your home? Check out items that have been recalled by manufactures in cooperation with U.S.Consumer Product Safety Commission. You can check by phone: 800-638-2772.
Remember, when it comes to recalls, health, food, the same information applies to both USA and Canada, as a rule. Check both government sites for above.
NOTE: For limiting exposure to mercury from certain types of fish, refer to Canada's Food Guide. For latest information and guide for your health and safety.
