Wasting fresh produce is hard on our grocery budget and our environment
The estimate today is that families toss out over 500 pounds of food per year at an annual cost of $800. Every day, they discard more than half a pound of fruits and veggies.
In total, Americans discard a quarter of all the produce they buy, mostly because it’s gone bad, The estimate today is that Americans discard over $50 billion worth of food every year. Wasting fresh produce is hard on our grocery budget and our environment
“The main way to lengthen shelf life is by using cold temperatures to slow food’s respiration, or ‘breathing’ process,”
In general, the warmer the temperature, the faster the rate of respiration, which is why refrigeration is critical for most produce. However, stopping respiration is even more harmful. “The worst thing to do is seal produce in an airtight bag,” says Barry Swanson, a food scientist at Washington State University. “You’ll suffocate it and speed up decay.”
Never refrigerate potatoes, onions, winter squash or garlic. Keep them in a cool, dark, dry cabinet, and they can last up to a month or more. But separate them so their flavors and smells don’t mingle.

Have FUN this summer and DRINK UP!
Water the medium that delivers nutrients to cells and transport toxins out of tissues .
Most people know they SHOULD drink 8X8oz. of water/day, as recommeneded by the western medical system; this recommendation was started by the bottled water companies, therefore has no scientific basis…
SHOULD is the keyword here, because in reality, most people are walking around in a state of DEHYDRATION.
*I see this everyday, day after day in my office, when I do the BodyScan-bio-feed-back energetic device I use regularly.
*the beauty of the human body is that it get used to a state of dehydration and adjusts by lowering it’s water requirements, therefore leading to chronic disease.
There is biological “formula”(mathematical and quite precise) regarding one’s necessary amount of water per day… My “rule of thumb” for water requirements has long been - weight in pounds / 2 = oz. of water / day. Caffeinated, alcoholic and many carbonated beverages have a diuretic effect and actually increase the daily fluid requirements.
One should choose pure (that would take up another article) water or high quality sport beverage in some circumstances.
Unless you weigh 128 lbs., 8 glasses of water ( 8oz each) per day is not enough!
Especially when the women’s average size in N.Am is 14! Read the rest of this entry »
