Want a Healthy Heart? Satisfy Your Chocolate Cravings!

March 2, 2016 By Colleen 18 Comments

Want a Healthy Heart? Satisfy Your Chocolate Cravings!

Are you having chocolate cravings? Cool your jets if you are about to rush off to purchase an unhealthy, chocolate-filled candy bar after reading that headline! Because not all chocolates are created equal. There are a lot of reasons that processed, sugar- loaded, trans fat-filled and chemical-laden chocolate coated candy bars are not good for you.

However, one type of chocolate treat is heart-friendly.

Dark chocolate comes from the cacao plant. When you consume natural dark chocolate, with no additives, preservatives, sugar and other man-made nasties present, you actually do your heart a favor. This is because of the flavonols in the cacao plant. These natural heart helpers can lower your blood pressure and even prevent blood clots which can lead to a stroke or heart attack.

Dark chocolate also boosts your immune system. It has antioxidant properties which keep your LDL cholesterol moving through your system, instead of sticking to the walls of your arteries. This limits your risk of arterial diseases, just one more heart friendly property that delicious, rich dark chocolate offers.

Make sure you choose dark chocolate which is at least 70% cocoa to limit the amount of unhealthy ingredients like sugar. Choosing natural, organic cocoa powder or unsweetened cacao nibs ramps up the amount of heart healthy flavonols you ingest, for an even healthier heart.

What Is The Coenzyme Q10 And Why Is It Important For Heart Health?

February 24, 2016 By Colleen 11 Comments

What Is The Coenzyme Q10 And Why Is It Important For Heart Health?

In keeping with our heart health for February, lets take a look at CoQ10. CoQ10 is the abbreviation for Coenzyme Q10, which is also known by several other names, including ubiquinone and ubidecarenone. CoQ10 is considered by some researchers to be almost like a vitamin and is known to contribute to heart health.

CoQ10 is found in all the tissues and organs of your body, as it is needed by your cells for energy, which in turn helps all of your organs and tissues stay healthy and do their jobs properly. CoQ10 also helps defend the body against free radicals that attack and oxidize your cells. Oxidation is thought to be one of the main causes of aging and disease in the body, so a diet high in antioxidants such as berries and green tea can help fight illness.

CoQ10 also lessens the damage to the cells in your body caused by oxidation, particularly in relation to protecting your blood vessels. It has been shown to slow the progression of buildup of plaque in your arteries of your body from LDL or bad cholesterol.

In terms of heart health, it has been found to be low in people with heart problems, particularly congestive heart failure. Research showing the effects of adding it to the diet have been promising.

Ironically, one of the main drug classes taken with a view to improving heart health actually strips out CoQ10 from the body. Statins are prescribed to lower cholesterol, but have a range of potentially serious side effects, including muscle pain and weakness, liver and kidney problems, and Type 2 diabetes.

CoQ10 is important for digestive health and aids muscles and your bones as well. A study of cancer patients showed they had very little CoQ10 in their blood.

With so many different beneficial effects, why donít we hear more about it?

This might be due to the fact that it is natural substance, so it is just taken for granted as being present in the body. However, research shows that as we age, our levels of CoQ10 decline. Some studies show that your levels can start to decline as early as your 20s. It is present in certain foods, including organ meats (liver, kidneys), sardines (a heart-healthy fatty fish) and peanuts, which are high in monounsaturated fat and therefore heart-healthy as well as full of fiber and very filling.

If you can’t add enough to your diet, it might be time to consider a supplement. There are many inexpensive brands available online or in your local drugstore. Try one and see if it makes a difference to your health.

Green Apple Turnover Gluten-free Dairy-free

OH do I love pies and turnovers, and I have a great recipe for a Green Apple Turnover for you! Yes it's Gluten Free, doesn't it look mouth watering and tender?

Prep Time30

Cook Time10

Total Time40

Course: Dessert

Cuisine: American

Servings: turnovers

Calories: 505kcal

Author: My Dairy-Free Gluten-Free Life

Ingredients

Pastry

1 Bag Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pie Crust
12 Tbsp COLD Butter alternative
8 Tbsp COLD shortening

Filling

1 TBS Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 TSP Lemon Juice
1 1/2 Cups Organic Sugar
1/2 TSP Sea Salt
4 Granny Smith Apples Shredded

Topping

Wholesome Organic Powdered Confectioners’ Sugar
Cinnamon

Instructions

-Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
-Prepare pie crust according to package directions.
-Mix filling ingredients in a bowl, let set for 10 minutes and then drain*
(You can save juice for use with other recipes such as oatmeal for breakfast. In fact, any of your leftover filling can be added in oatmeal for your breakfast)
*While the apple mixture is draining, roll out your dough. Cut into squares using a pizza cutter or a knife. You can also roll out perfect squares using parchment paper as a package. Place squares of dough on parchment paper on the baking pan.
-Put filling in middle of each square. Fold over carefully sealing by pressing with the tines of a fork. If there is any breakage don’t panic, just use some left over dough to patch the holes. The dough is very delicate but pliable.
-Bake for 10 minutes until lightly brown. Do not overcook.
-Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, right on the pan. Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar and cinnamon on top or a dollop of dairy free ice cream! Enjoy.

Notes

If you want a more cooked gooey center of apples, you can put the filling in a stove top cook pan, add 2 Tbsp corn starch and cook until apples are thickened and tender. Then just add that filling on the prepared pastry squares and proceed to crimp shut and bake.

How to Choose Heart Healthy Fats

February 17, 2016 By Colleen 12 Comments

How to Choose Heart Healthy Fats

February is Heart Healthy month! So we are looking at ways to live a heart healthy lifestyle with healthy fats!

One of the easiest ways to live a heart-healthy lifestyle is to get your bad cholesterol (LDL) lower and boost your good cholesterol (HLD) higher. The best ways to do both is to choose the right fats in your diet.

There are 4 main kinds of fat:

*Monounsaturated ( Good Fat )
* Polyunsaturated ( Fair )
* Saturated ( BAD)
* Trans fats (BAD)

Your goal is to add more of Monounsaturated fats and cut the other 3 fats whenever possible. You should also limit your overall intake of fat to around 25% of your overall calorie intake each day. In a 1600 calorie a day diet, that would be no more than 400 calories. Dietary fat is not only linked with weight issues, it is linked with cardiovascular health as well, particularly in relation to cholesterol and how it can block arteries and lead to heart attack and stroke.

Cholesterol is formed naturally in the body, but we also consume it in animal-based products we eat such as butter, meat and milk. Butter is one of the most common fats most people consume, but it is full of saturated fat, which has been linked to hardening of the arteries. Olive oil may look less healthy in terms of calories if you compare the 2 side by side in a food database, but olive oil is plant-based and has no cholesterol. It is also a heart-healthy fat because it can boost good HDL cholesterol, which can help bad LDL cholesterol from sticking to artery walls.

A lot of people think margarine is healthier for them than butter, but this is often a mistake, for a couple of reasons. Some are made with milk, which has saturated fat. Others are made with corn oil, which sounds natural but can form clogs in the arteries as well. Plus most all corn in the US is GMO corn and that is something you want to avoid! But the main reason it is so unhealthy is the process of hydrogenation, which forms trans fatty acids. Think about it. Oil in its natural form is liquid. Hydrogen molecules added make it solid and spreadable. But just think how much more that can clog your arteries. So if you want to eat butter, choose organic butter and NOT margarine!

Many people avoid nuts because they are high in calories per ounce. The truth is that their fats are monounsaturated. They are also full of fiber and filling. In addition, walnuts and almonds have been found to lower LDL and boost HDL.

Avocados are also high in fat, but have the same heart-healthy benefits when eaten fresh or the oil is used.

Start using healthier fats such as nuts, avocados, flax and olive oil and see what a difference it can make to your heart health!

Touch Coffee Brewer Easter Giveaway – $249 Value!

February 15, 2016 By Colleen 20 Comments

Heads up Coffee Lovers! Who would like a new brewer for Easter? I’m not a coffee drinker, but everyone else in our family is and I know how hard these coffee brewers get used. We have 2 on the counter actually for just one coffee drinker! I’m very happy to join with Host New Age Mama and a group of fantastic bloggers to bring you this great Touch Coffee Brewer Easter Giveaway!

About the Touch Brewer and Touch Company:

While single-serve coffee systems continue to gain popularity, there have always been drawbacks: weak coffee, the ability to brew only a small cup at a time, and most notably, flawed coffee capsule designs and water heating systems. Touch Coffee & Beverages is re-inventing the single-serve coffee platform with the release of its ground-breaking Touch® T526S brewer and re-engineered capsules. Not only do Touch’s easy-to-use systems brew superior-tasting, coffee shop-quality coffee in significantly less time than current machines, but they are also open platform. This means that the brewers are fully compatible with any cup at all—from existing Keurig K-Cups® to generic cups, in addition to Touch’s ground-breaking XBold Cups™, XLarge Cups™ and reusable Refill Jumbo Cup™.

According to the National Coffee Association USA, the brewing water temperature for a good cup of coffee is “between 195-205 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal extraction.” The Touch® T526S brewer reaches this ideal temperature by using its Flash Heating system and starts brewing in under 20 seconds after being off all night. Plus, Touch heats just enough water for the selected cup size as opposed to the entire tank of water, and the machine turns itself off after using, making it more energy efficient than its competitors.

Touch’s superior coffee quality is also due to the fact that the hot water has more contact with the coffee grounds, which ensures that all of the coffee flavor is extracted. Other machines take much longer to warm up and then shoot water through the coffee grounds too quickly, so you end up throwing away untapped flavor with the used capsule. Even with a slower, more deliberate brew, when factoring in the warm-up time, the Touch® T526S still turns out a cup of joe in a fraction of the time.

Compared to most K-Cups®, which only fit up to 12.5 grams of coffee, XBold Cups ™ pack up to 15 grams of coffee and XLARGE CUPS™ provide up to 18 grams of coffee. Flavor Grooves swirl the coffee grinds to release bold aromas and flavors. The Refill Jumbo Cup™ packs up to 40 grams of your favorite coffee grounds—ideal for filling a carafe or large travel mug.

With Touch, you can customize your coffee experience and brew larger cups of coffee without sacrificing flavor. The T526S brewer allows you to choose from eight cup sizes (6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, or 18 ounces and carafe). Plus, its removable 90-ounce water tank has a greater capacity and is shorter in height than its counterparts, meaning you will be refilling less often, and it will be less awkward when you do.

The Touch® T526S brewer, which comes with a reusable Refill Jumbo Cup™ and 26-ounce carafe, is currently available online and has an MSRP of $249.99. For additional information about Touch’s brewers, accessories and coffee, please visit www.TouchBeverages.com.

Touch Coffee Brewer Easter Giveaway

One lucky winner is going to receive a Touch® T526S brewer.

This giveaway will end on 03/06/16. Open to the US only.

The winner will be notified via email and will have 48 hours to reply.

Thai Coconut Fish Soup

February 15, 2016 By Colleen 34 Comments

This Thai Coconut Fish Soup is Gluten-Free and Dairy-free. A flavorsome and hearty dish that is easy to make and fresh an tasty.

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Many people purchase their Cod at Trader Joe’s. I hear the prices are reasonable, the fish is wild caught and you can find it already cut into chunks at Trader Joe’s. Here in Alaska we do not have a Trader Joe’s. We have our own boat and fish for our own Salmon, Halibut and LingCod in the bay. So I usually use fresh caught halibut for most of my stews using white fish. But any white fish would work. What kind of soup do you like?

I love the seasonings for Thai dishes. Using Coconut Milk in this Thai Coconut Fish Soup makes it so flavorful plus Dairy Free! Coconut Milk has many health Benefits. It aids in weight loss and is rich in short and medium chain triglycerides, considering them to be healthy fats.

Coconut Milk balances electrolytes. It has anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore strengthening the immune system. It also is fabulous in making healthy hair and skin.

We use red curry paste in this recipe. Curry is such a fragrant and healthy spice. Did you know that curry reduces inflammation? Turmeric is the key part of curry that helps with reducing inflammation.

Curry also is a powerful agent to fight cancer. Curcumin is thought to be the agent to help prevent cancer, including prostate, breast, skin and colon cancer.

Other things that curry helps with are combating Alzheimer’s disease, aiding digestion, battles bacteria and boosts bone strength. Quite a powerhouse isn’t it!

This Thai Coconut Fish Soup is Gluten-Free and Dairy-free. A flavorsome and hearty dish that is easy to make and fresh an tasty.

Calories: 532kcal

Author: My Dairy-Free Gluten-Free Life

Ingredients

2 lbs of Halibut Cod or other white fish, cut into 2 inches
2 Tbsp oil coconut oil is perfect for this
1/2 onion diced
3 garlic cloves minced
1/2 green pepper diced
1/2 red pepper diced
2 large carrots sliced about 1/2 inch
2 medium potatoes cubed
1 tomato diced
2 - 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
8 oz coconut milk
2 Tbsp Thai red curry paste.
salt/pepper to taste

Instructions

Season the fish with salt/pepper.
In a large pot heat the oil and cook the onions, garlic and peppers until soft.
Next add potatoes and carrots, cook until the potatoes have begun to brown a little. Then add the tomatoes and allow them to soften and scrape down the bottom of the pot with their juices.
Add the broth and bring it to a boil. Simmer until the potatoes are tender, not mushy.
Once they're done cooking, add all the fish, the coconut milk and the curry paste. The fish cooks very fast, I'll say about 3 or for 4 minutes. Turn off heat and they'll continue to cook.
You pretty much decide how much broth to add to this, depending how "soupy" you'd like.
