The Amazing Kiwi


This amazing small fruit is packed with nutrition and tastes great also. Eat a Kiwi fruit plain, on a salad, cereal or use it for a garnish on your favorite dessert... One great fruit! Sometimes called Chinese Gooseberry, grows easily in the tropics... Wish I lived in that part of the world, just to grow Kiwis! Enjoy them when they are in season...photo from www.sheknows.com

Hidden danger on fruits and vegetables


This morning I have been up early, due to the day light savings time change. I've been reading up on the dangers of Pesticide use on our fruits and vegetables. A website, www.drmomma.com has a very interesting article on the potential risks that pesticides pose on children. This is well worth the time it takes to read the article. Even in small quanities these dangerous products can potentially harm all of us. Since a recent bout with skin cancer, I have been looking carefully at my ingestion of all food products. But especially fruits and vegetables. I'm trying to purchase only organic produce and from reputable vendors. This is difficult and somewhat costly. I have made up my mind to do this... just makes good sense. I will be doing more research on this subject. Eat healthy and organic!
