Holistic Cooking & Nutrition Tips!


Holistic Cooking Tip 
Add Himalayan salt to your food and water to increase it nutritional value. A tiny pinch will mineralize your water and help prepare your stomach for optimal digestion. The human body requires approximately 90 trace minerals for optimal function. Himalayan salt has 94 minerals and can be added easily to your food. Salts that are rich in minerals are not white, but are various colors from pink to green. 
Traditional table salt lacks adequate minerals and can lead to an array of health issues. It also contains anti-caking agents some of which are aluminum based, which can contribute to heavy metal toxicity and has been linked to Alzheimer’s disease. Consider eliminating it from your household. 

Holistic Nutrition Tip 
Consider making the switch to organic, free range meats. In his highly respected book ‘How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy!” Paul Chek writes…. “Some commercial meat producers have begun research trials adding cardboard, newspaper and sawdust to cattle feeding programs to reduce costs. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) officials say that it’s not uncommon for some feedlot operators to mix industrial sewage and oils into feed to reduce costs and fatten animals more quickly” “The agency said the following animal diseases do not present a health danger to humans:
  • Cancer
  • Sores 
  • Infectious arthritis
  • Diseases caused by intestinal worms 
  • Tumors (In case of tumors, the guidelines state: “remove localized lesion(s) and pass unaffected carcass portions.”)
