Whole Grains
Below you will find an article on Whole Grain vs White Refined. If you have read my articles before, you know how I feel about white's - white flour, white sugar, white rice, white potatoes. They all raise the blood sugar levels in your body and will cause you to gain weight, in addition to all the other issues they cause. Please read my friend, Kim Watson's article on this topic.
It really does matter. Care for yourself. And your body will respond positively to you.

White vs Whole Wheat – It Matters
Eating whole wheat bread and whole grain cereals was one of the first things I remember hearing about, back in the early 1970s when the health food mindset emerged into mainstream consciousness. Pretty much everyone now is aware that they should be choosing whole grains over processed. Do you remember why?
As the saying goes, the whiter the bread, the sooner you’re dead… A frequently referenced study in the UK journal Lancet showed that dogs fed exclusively on white bread died of malnutrition within two months. Dogs similarly fed only bread made with stone-ground, whole-wheat flour lived indefinitely in good health. White flour has been treated with chemical bleach. Think Clorox. This leaves a toxic residue you don’t want in your system. There is a long list of chemicals routinely added to breads in the grocery store to extend shelf life. And a longer list of essential nutrients are removed with the bran and germ, and destroyed through bleaching and high heat of the milling process. Then, a very few are added back so that the breads can then be called ‘enriched’! For heaven’s sake, don’t believe that one .
Avoid chronic disease
Over the years, many studies have found that both humans and animals thrive on whole grains and become sick on a diet of refined grains. A Minnesota study identified the components in whole grains that protect against chronic disease. These include compounds like fiber and starch that improve the gut environment, trace minerals that act as antioxidants, phytosterols that support the hormonal system, and agents that bind carcinogens and modulate blood sugar affects.
Keep your bowels regular and healthy
No one likes to talk about it, but being constipated is very uncomfortable. You can improve the health and regularity of your bowels by sticking to whole grains, along with eating fresh fruits and vegetables. The fiber in the grains act like a broom, keeping your gut clean. As an experiment, try eating only whole grains and lots of fresh fruits and vegetables for a week, and stay away from processed foods. Say goodbye to laxatives! Studies also show that eating a whole grain diet can cause the symptoms of diverticulosis to disappear.
Reduce risk of heart disease
A number of studies have shown a reduced incidence of heart disease in women who eat whole grains, as well as better waist-to-hip ratios and lower cholesterol levels.
Normalize blood sugar levels
Since people with diabetes who replace refined foods with whole grain high fiber foods can greatly improve their blood sugar levels and even get off of their insulin, it makes sense that the rest of us can simply keep ourselves on track by doing the same. Why ask for trouble?
Eating whole grains
Pick brown rice every time for stir fries, casseroles, and pilafs. It takes longer to cook but tastes richer and nuttier.
Experiment with quinoa and barley too. Recipes ideas? Click here, and here.
Switch to whole grain pasta today. If you want to ease into it, chose thin spaghetti or angel hair spaghetti to start. But the rigatoni, linguine, penne and bow ties are all great.
Choose whole wheat bread every time. And if you can find fresh baked from a real bakery using their own fresh ingredients, all the better.
Look for whole grain crackers. I love Ak-mak, Ryvita and Wasa crackers topped with avocado and tomato, or cheese or peanut butter for a snack.
Insist on whole grain breakfast cereals. Kashi is a great brand. In our house we routinely have homemade granola and brown rice in our breakfast bowls. Use regular oatmeal, not the quick oats.
Use whole wheat bread crumbs when you cook. I save the ends of my bread loaves and freeze them for this purpose.
Some people seem to believe it is a big sacrifice to eat whole grains. I’m never sure why. The fact is that the fresh whole grain bread tastes better, whole grain pasta and rice satisfy longer, and the cereals are REAL food that will get you through until lunch time (not sugary pseudo-food). When I started eating a whole grain-based diet free of processed foods, I found I could eat more, feel less hungry and stay slim. No downside! What are you waiting for?

Are you addicted to Sugar?
Below is an article written by a Business Partner of mine. She writes weekly newsletters on wellness. The link to her web page is at the bottom. Are YOU addicted to sugar? I no longer am. Enjoy!

Reining in your Sweet Tooth
by Kim Watson
There is a buzz about sugar going on right now. Research is showing that sugar may be a BIG public health problem. It isn't just fat intake and high cholesterol levels that are the only culprits in the soaring rates of chronic disease today.
Are you a food label reader? Take a look. Sugar and high fructose corn syrup can be found in just about every processed food in the grocery store and fast food restaurant - deli meats, condiments, peanut butter, breads, cereals, frozen waffles, chips, baby foods, instant coffees, baked beans, dairy products, fruit juices, and, of course, in all the foods we expect to be sweet – jam, cookies, cakes, sodas, candy, ice creams etc.
The result? Sugar addiction across the population. Why are so many children resistant to healthy whole foods like vegetables and fruits? They are being weaned onto processed foods and their palettes are attuned and addicted to the sugars and chemical “flavor enhancers” they’ve been fed from the start. And even if you have been vigilant for years in steering clear of ‘unhealthy’ foods, many of the organic processed foods are still full of sugar.
Many of us admit to a ‘sweet tooth’. Is that a problem? Well, for sure, sugar isn’t helping your health. And there is a growing incidence of what the medical industry calls ‘metabolic syndrome’, a name for a group of risk factors that occur together and increase the risk for coronary artery disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. Two of the most important risk factors are carrying extra weight around the middle, and insulin resistance, where the body can’t process insulin effectively and blood sugar levels rise. When blood sugar levels rise it affects kidney function and raises the level of triglycerides. This all points to chronic disease.
If you want more depth information I encourage you to read a fascinating NY Times article called ‘Is Sugar Toxic?’ and then watch ‘Sugar: The Bitter Truth’ on You Tube, a talk given by Robert H Lustig, MD, UCSF Professor of Pediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology on the damage caused by sugary foods.
Would you like to be free of your addiction to sweets?
Like any other addiction it takes persistence and effort. Here are some suggestions to help you along the way:
Don’t drink soft drinks of any kind. This is a no brainer. Just don’t, not even in moderation.
Avoid all artificial sweeteners – they increase your appetite, increase your sugar cravings, inhibit and decrease your fat metabolism. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/02/080210183902.htm
Don’t buy junk food. Don’t have it in your home. You won’t eat it if it isn’t handy
Eat a piece of fruit when you have a sugar craving. Rather than giving a rush of energy, fruit gives a steady supply of glucose to your blood stream. This is a great bridge as you adjust to lower sugar intake.
Exercise. Along with diet, exercise yields great benefits – fitness and stable blood sugar levels.
Break the emotional association. Does sugar = happiness to you? If you associate it with love, reward, romance, holidays and good times, start separating the emotion from the food. Substitute flowers or a gift for the candy. Don’t reward children with food!
Taper off. This isn’t a race. Cut down on how much sugar you are eating with smaller portions or going for longer periods without it. Once you overcome the addiction, your body won’t ask for it. Really!
Don’t fall off the wagon. If you eat the sugary foods at a party or gathering, then the cravings begin all over again. Break the habit once. It's easier that way.
Eat low glycemic foods. Whole foods and whole grains don’t spike your blood sugar.
I’m a big believer in taking small steps. Make your goal and move toward it. Your body will thank you in many ways!

Spring is Coming!
Spring is coming and some may have spent a few too many hours on the couch this winter. You may want to review the 'Steps to Healthier Living' to get yourself ready for a more active spring and summer. One that might include gardening, and walking, maybe even some bike riding. Check the Index list at the side here for the Steps.

Not sleeping well?
There are many people who don't get a good nights sleep. Many reach for over the counter drugs. Here are some testimonies from several people who tried essential oils to help them sleep better. Read below. If you like what you read, and want to try them for yourself or someone else you know, contact me at solehaven@me.com and I will get the oil(s) ordered for you. I order on the 1st of every month.
Testimonies:
"A friend suggested that I try using the essential oil of valerian for sleep, so I decided to do a little research; the National Institutes of Health has a website devoted to Valerian for Insomnia and Sleep Disorders. I was amazed how much clinical investigation there was on the properties of this oil. What I read about valerian was that it was very highly regarded as an all-natural sedative. What I learned about valerian from using it was that it is calming, relaxing, balancing, and a sleep aid. Just an aside, Valerian Root is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) for ingestion by the FDA. I would make sure the oil you use is therapeutic grade. " John Rosenberger, Moses Lake, Washington
It is estimated that Americans spend $14 Billion dollars, every year, on our Sleep Disorders!
58% of adults experience symptoms of insomnia a few nights or more per week
35% of adults report at least one symptom of insomnia every night or almost every night
For those looking for a safe, effective, and cost-effective alternative, Young Living's beautiful essential oils stand alone.
Try some oils tonight before you go to sleep. You may be pleasantly surprised!
Using Essential Oil of Cedarwood on your feet before you go to bed and you may sleep like a baby! It stimulates the pineal gland which releases natural Melatonin. I feel this is also good for the brain since Cedarwood is high in sesquiterpenes [brain food].
"I have also used Alkalime and Lavender for sleep....love it." - Jackie K., Hemphill, Texas
"When my sister Linda died last year, I found myself facing insomnia for the first time in my life. I'd go to bed as normal but would have trouble even getting 2 hours sleep a night. I had heard that Valerian could be good for insomnia, so I ordered a bottle from Young Living. I'd put a few drops under my tongue and then - because it didn't smell great - I put a drop of Lavender on the tip of my nose which masked the smell. It was a wonder! I was sleeping again and never was groggy in the morning. The National Institutes of Health has a website devoted to Valerian for Insomnia and Sleep Disorders. Just as an aside, I'm a big fan of 19th century Russian literature and one of my favorite writers is Anton Chekhov, who was actually a country doctor as well as a writer. In one of his plays, The Sea Gull, the doctor in the play named Dorn asks his patient if he'd like some Valerian drops for his insomnia. So this has been a traditional remedy. Valerian Root is generally regarded as safe (GRAS) for ingestion by the FDA. I would just make sure the oil ingested is therapeutic grade. I highly recommend the Valerian/Lavender combo for insomnia." Kathryn Streletzky
"I put my daughter to sleep every night with a story and a kiss. Recently, I have added some reflexology techniques and the rubbing of Peace and Calming essential oils to the bottom of her feet, and some in her palms to smell deeply. The two of us become so relaxed and sleepy that we had to change our nightly ritual to stories first and oils last. She sleeps so soundly her blankets stay perfectly neat until she wakes up in the morning. Wonderful!" Stacy Allen
"Last year I was having problems with sleeping at night so I decided I would try the Valor oil to see if it would help me out. I tried putting 2 drops on the bottom of both feet and then with the oil on my hands, I would cup them in front of my mouth and nose and take 6-8 deep breaths. Since I started with this routine I have been getting a full night's sleep and waking up very refreshed. My husband has been using it also and is sleeping better with a lot less snoring." Anne Totzke

Peace & Calming Essential Oil Blend
Peace and Calming® Oil Blend is one of the basic oils that families all around the world use all day long to maintain vibrant health!
Peace and Calming® Oil Blend
Containing tangerine, ylang ylang, blue tansy, orange and patchouli, this blend is a must for anyone experiencing stress in their life. Peace & Calming contains properties that relax the mind and calm the body. Diffusing it into your air is a favorite for many people. To calm hyperactive children on a road trip, mix Peace and Calming and water and spray into the car. For a good night sleep, rub along your spine and on the bottom of your feet. A few drops under the nostrils will also help with snoring.
Contains:
Blue Tansy (Tanacetum annuum) may help cleanse the liver and calm the lymphatic system, helping one to overcome anger and negative emotions promoting a feeling of self-control. It contains sesquiterpenes that can stimulate the pineal gland, which secretes the hormone melatonin, a hormone that enhances deep sleep.
Patchouly (Pogostemon cablin) was used in India in ancient times as a trade commodity because of its earthy, musty fragrance and its ability to mask many different odors. Its fragrance reestablishes equilibrium while simultaneously quieting emotion and energizing the mind.
Tangerine (Citrus nobilis) contains esters and aldehydes that are sedating and calming, helping with anxiety and nervousness.
Orange (Citrus aurantium) was believed to bring joy, peace, and happiness to those who possessed it. It is elevating to the mind and body.
Ylang Ylang (Cananga odorata) helps bring about a sense of relaxation and may help balance male and female energies. It balances equilibrium and inspires confidence and self-love.
SAFETY DATA: If pregnant or under a doctor's care, consult your physician prior to use. May be irritating to those with sensitive skin. Avoid eye contact. In case of accidental contact, put a few drops of any pure vegetable oil in the eye and call your doctor if necessary. Never use water.
APPLICATIONS: Diffuse, wear as a perfume, apply on bottom of the feet, on wrists, and outside of ears. Put in bath water. Dilute with V-6 Mixing Oil or Massage Oil Base for a full-body massage.
Rub 1-2 drops of Peace and Calming® oil on the bottom of the feet and on the shoulders before bedtime to get good quality sleep.
Diffuse Peace and Calming® oil in the room to calm overactive or hard to manage children.
Mix Peace and Calming® oil with massage oil for a relaxing massage.

COMPANION OILS: Lavender (for insomnia) and chamomile (for calming).
FRAGRANT INFLUENCE: A feeling of calming and emotional well-being.
This gentle fragrance is specifically designed for diffusing. It promotes relaxation and a deep sense of peace, helping to dampen tensions and uplift spirits. When massaged on the bottom of the feet, it can be a wonderful prelude to a peaceful night's rest. It may calm overactive and hard-to-manage children. The oils in this blend have historically been used to help reduce depression, anxiety, stress, and insomnia. This blend along with Mineral Essence may be a healthy alternative to Ritalin.
