The Fat Flush Foods is an excellent book by Ann Louise Gittleman. I came across it while researching the best way to cleanse my body right …

1 “bottom line” tip is to wash off toxic chemicals and preservatives. This also helps our fruits, vegetables and meats stay fresh longer. Win win win.

Here’s how – 3 Step Process:

* Step 1 – Add 1/2 teaspoon of regular ‘ol Clorox per 1 gallon of purified water. (I’m using tap until I get my filtered water set up.)

* Step 2– Soak away according to this schedule:
Leafy vegetables 15 minutes
Root, thick-skinned, or fibrous vegetables 30 minutes
Fruits 30 minutes
Poultry, fish, *meat and eggs 20 minutes

*don’t place ground meat in the bath. Frozen meat can be thawed in a Clorox bath. Allow for 20 minutes for up to 5 lbs of meat.

* Step 3 – Soak again for 10 minutes in clear water and rinse.

This is an easy routine to get into … I do it on Sunday nights then make up my veggie bags for the week. Doing more of less keeps it simple.

Till tomorrow … eat well, feel well and find something that makes you giggle and guffaw. Why?

Bottom line is “we” keep each other on track and feeling fine.

I have proof of this, fortunately or unfortunately. This week my husband has been out of town and somehow – gee whiz – I just haven’t made it to the gym. Not a once. It has been a lot easier to eat “whatever” vs. something “good” for me.

All this time I kind of thought I was the one helping him get healthy. Now I know how much loving and encouraging him helps me stay on track. Should I admit this to him? You bet. We’ll have a lot of time to catch up on that ride back from the airport …

A study from the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom found that digging in the dirt may boost your mood and help you cope with stress.

My mother has been showing and telling me this for years. I just thought she wanted cheap labor though I admit that the older I get the more I enjoy hanging and hauling and hoeing …

So — the moral to this story is get out there and give your mom a hand or just potter & putter around on your own like we did when we were kids and mud pies were so much fun!

UCLA STUDY ON FRIENDSHIP AMONG WOMEN
By Gale Berkowitz

A landmark UCLA study suggests friendships between women are special. They shape who we are and who we are yet to be. They soothe our tumultuous inner world, fill the emotional gaps in our marriage, and help us remember who we really are. By the way, they may do even more. Scientists now suspect that hanging out with our friends can actually counteract the kind of stomach-quivering stress most of us experience on a daily basis. A landmark UCLA study suggests that women respond to stress with a cascade of brain chemicals that cause us to make and maintain friendships with other women. It’s a stunning find that has turned five decades of stress research—most of it on men—upside down.
