i'll bet most people do not realize how good cinnamon is for them. the husband showed me an article in aarp magazine which talks about a number of spices, but i like cinnamon and garlic so i'll go with them first.
> cinnamon helps you stay focused; eat a teaspoon on your oatmeal at breakfast.
> garlic is good for your heart but may also protect against brain cancer; put garlic in your tomato sauce.
> ginger helps keep migraines away; grate 3 teaspoons in a cup of boiling water, wait 10 minutes, strain and drink.
> saffron helps combat mild depression; add 1/2 teaspoon to the water when you cook 2 cups rice.
> turmeric might protect against alzheimer's; add curry powder to your chicken salad.
i still have an article the husband e-mailed me in 2006 which stressed the importance of eating a mixture of honey and cinnamon. the article makes simply outrageous claims, but whether they work or not, they're harmless. and as fast-food, tv dinners, and take-out has become so ubiquitous, a lot of old-fashioned eating-smart dogma has gone by the wayside. maybe it would be good to try some of the old ways.
