Beef & Cabbage Stir Fry Recipe

A lot of people want to cook a wholesome and filling meal at home, but can‘t do so because they’re either too tired, too busy, or do not have enough time on their hands. In the end, they resort to ordering takeout or having food delivered to their home.

But did you know that it’s possible to cook a delicious and nutritious meal without slaving away in the kitchen for hours?

All it takes is a bit of creativity (and some spice) to transform a few simple ingredients into something that will delight your palate and nourish your body. This Beef and Cabbage Stir Fry recipe from Wellness Mama is one perfect example – try it today!

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

1 lb. organic grass-fed ground beef
1 small head of organic cabbage, chopped
2 organic tomatoes, chopped
2 onions, thinly sliced
2 organic carrots, grated
Spices to taste: salt, pepper, garlic, basil, oregano, thyme, etc. (At least 1 tsp. of each)

Instructions:

Brown beef in a large skillet or wok, adding spices to taste as you go.
When beef is almost completely browned, add sliced onions, grated carrots, and chopped tomatoes.
When onions and carrots are starting to soften, add the cabbage and spice well.
Cook about 10 more minutes, stirring often until cabbage starts to soften.
Can be topped with salsa or sour cream if desired.

This recipe makes 4 to 6 servings.

When Buying Ground Beef, Look for Organic and Grass-Fed Varieties

This simple and easy-to-prepare stir fry recipe uses beef, a superior source of protein and other nutrients, including conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which has been found to be a potential cancer fighter. However, for this recipe (and other recipes calling for ground beef), I advise you to buy ONLY organic, grass-fed ground beef for safety reasons.

Conventional ground beef from confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs), which are notorious breeding grounds for diseases, can expose you to dangerous antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and even fecal bacteria like E. coli. One test even revealed that 100 percent of all ground beef samples contained bacteria that can cause life-threatening blood or urinary tract infections.1

The truth is that ground beef is actually more problematic than solid meat cuts. In whole cuts, the bacteria are found on the surface of the meat, and are destroyed once the meat is cooked thoroughly. When you grind meat, though, the same bacteria get mixed throughout the meat, contaminating all of it. What’s more, ground beef is usually made from a number of different animals – and if one animal is contaminated, the entire batch will be, too.

Once you find organic beef (from pasture raised cows, raised by a trustworthy local farmer), make sure to cook it thoroughly. However, avoid burning it, as burnt meat can cause carcinogenic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heterocyclic amines (HCAs) to form. Organic beef is not only safer, but also nutritionally superior than CAFO beef, as it is higher in:

Total omega-3s (it has a healthier ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids)

B-vitamins riboflavin and thiamin

Minerals, such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium

Vitamin E

Beta-carotene

Vaccenic acid (which can be transformed to CLA)

Don’t Forget the Other Standout Ingredients in This Recipe

The second equally nutritious ingredient in this recipe is cabbage, which is an excellent source of fiber, folate, vitamin B6, manganese, vitamins B1, B5, B6, and K, as well as powerful antioxidants. These beneficial phytonutrients help protect against several types of cancer, including colon, prostate, and breast cancer.

Cabbage also contains an impressive amount of vitamin C – it can give you 54 percent of the recommended daily value for this nutrient. Vitamin C is a potent free radical-scavenging nutrient that helps protect you against infections. Other nutrients in this humble vegetable include phosphorus, magnesium, iron, and potassium.

While the recipe above calls for completely cooking or “softening” the cabbage, this method may remove most of the nutrients in the vegetable. If you want to get all the benefits of cabbage, cook it as minimally as possible instead. Leaving it tender crisp preserves the delicate nutrients while giving your dish a delicious crunch.

Carrots add a mild sweetness to this recipe, but that’s not all. Aside from their abundant amounts of beta-carotene that help keep your eyes healthy, carrots also contain phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium that help build strong bones, teeth, and hair, maintain nervous system and heart health, and promote mental development. Carrots also contain vitamins C and B6, potassium, copper, thiamine, folic acid, and magnesium.

Lastly, don’t underestimate the herbs and spices used for this recipe. They contain a wide range of minerals, vitamins, and antioxidant that helps maximize the nutrient density of the dish. Thyme and oregano, in particular, have been valued for their anti-inflammatory properties, which help prevent the formation of AGE compounds (advanced glycation end products) that can contribute to heart disease and premature aging.

Meanwhile, garlic (which is actually a vegetable, and not a spice or herb) is a proven health tonic – it can provide protection against more than 160 different diseases.

Can “Miracle Drink” Cure Cancer? Expert’s Analysis & View

Cure for cancer – Claim that now a Miracle drink can cure cancer.  How true this fact is although? Have we really been successful in finding out a cure for lethal cancer?

  ”Combination of carrot, apple and beetroot saved my life” claims our friend from Japan. This man believes that this miracle drink helped him to battle his cancer.

The wonders of Ayurveda are known to all. Since ancient times the magic and benefits of it have become the talk of the town. This ancient practice which was started by many of our forefathers, prove to be beneficial to us even today. Natural home remedies to a number of ailments, methods to lose weight/ gain weight, wonders of fruits and different kind of fruit-juices, hidden benefits of various vegetables and a range of anti-oxidants and also the ACAI berry have been known to many of us. But now we have a natural Miracle drink added to this list as well!

Bringing about certain changes in one’s diet which may include fruits and vegetables majorly is something that Ayurveda always teaches us. There is no doubt that this change in our diets is not only important for our well-being but also beneficial in a number of many other ways. Our bodies can now strongly fight against many dangerous ailments. All thanks to the study of Ayurveda which teaches us the benefits of a number of fruits and vegetables. History too bears witness to this claim.

  But can we now claim as well that a certain type of miracle drink will help us cure cancer? Well, maybe yes. The home remedies suggested by Ayurveda are always tested and tried before hand. It is proven that now papaya leaves are a sure cure to dengue fever. Besides, the home remedy for the blockage of blood heart vessels as discussed at length earlier is also known to be a contribution of Ayurveda.

While gazing through a number of articles and posts, this particular article about the Miracle drink happened to catch my attention. This article was sent to me by Mr. Seto, from Japan. The article said that the so called Miracle drink prevents the formation of bad cells in the body. Not only does it help in this, but the drink also helps to restrain any further cancer growth from advancing.

This gentleman swears that this Miracle drink helped him to battle his lung cancer. The brainchild behind that Miracle drink is known to be an herbalist from China. That herbalist had recommended the miracle concoction to Mr. Seto. After rigorous three months of continuous drinking of the Miracle drink, Mr. Seto manages to restore back his health.

  Further reviewing of the article and a deeper study into the subject matter went on to say that the drink can also help to restrain and cure a number of other ailments and cancers. To name a few of its benefits-

  1. Curing liver, pancreas as well as kidney diseases

Curing of ulcers
Strengthening of the lungs
Prevention of heart attacks as well as high blood pressure
Strengthening of the Immune System
Helps in improving of the eyesight
Eliminating muscle aches
Detoxifying the body
Assists in Bowel Movements and also helps in eliminating constipation
Reducing indigestion
Curing of throat infections
Reducing menstrual pain
Hay Fever Attacks and
Weight Loss

After reading in depth about the benefits of this drink and also after somewhat being fascinated by it, you too may be tempted to avail to it. Go fetch for a piece of paper and a pen as here’s how you can prepare this Miracle drink –

Ingredients:

1 Apple

1 Carrot

1 Beetroot

  Method: Mix this concoction well in a juicer. These have to be used enough so as to obtain an 8 ounce drink. To add taste to this drink, lemon can be used.

  For best results, one should consume this juice immediately after it’s taken out from the juicer. Thus, we see that this drink is quite simple enough and easy to make.

The article also goes on further to state that this drink is known to not have any side effects. It gets easily absorbed into the body and therefore this adds to its nutritious level. Within 2 weeks the results can be noticed. The immune system will begin to show some kind of improvement.

Are you wondering now when exactly should you consume this drink? Don’t worry! We have an answer to all your questions. This drink ought to be drunk twice a day for better results in the morning on an empty stomach and sometime in the afternoon before 5 pm however. Breakfast should be eaten only an hour after the juice has been consumed.

Now as we reach the climax of this article, I would firstly like to thank my friend. His concern towards my health and his willingness to help me out are something for which I can’t express my gratitude in words alone. I’ve never doubted the role of fruits and vegetables in helping us lead healthier life. However, it came as a big surprise to me that they can help to cure cancer as well!

 It may not be known to all that the indigenous people of the Amazon Rain Forest are said to be living healthy lives, free from diseases and ailments mainly due to the ACAI berry that they consume. There may be a slight exaggeration if we say that these people live almost forever. However, there is no denying of the fact that they lead better lifestyles that the average of us. It is important to note that by ‘better’, I only mean ‘healthier’.

  Modernization or say Westernization has hit us so badly that we people living in the cities mainly have to rely on drugs and other forms of medication from time to time. Even when diagnosed with diseases like Hepatitis C, we have to look up to doctors and the medication suggested by them.

 However, as the saying goes, it’s never too late! It doesn’t mean that we can’t change what we eat and that we can’t moderate how much of what we eat. To avoid diseases and other ailments all we got to do is bring about certain alterations in our diet.

We can all learn from Mr. Seto who claimed to have had nothing but the Miracle drink for around 3 months. This powerful natural mixed juice drink helped him to cure his cancer.

All we require is a determined positive mind. The power of a positive mind can be really amazing. The Miracle drink as well in this case stands out to be something astonishing.

  If this post may have helped to add to your knowledge or if this Miracle drink has been beneficial to you or any other known person, I will request you share your thoughts and learning with us by commenting on this post. It can help someone in need .

With Love n Care,

Luscious Healthy Lemon Curd Smoothie Recipe

If you ask me what the best fruit to use in your smoothies is, there’s one top choice that I would absolutely recommend: avocado. It’s incredibly versatile, has a mildly sweet (but not overpowering) flavor, and gives your smoothie a thick consistency. Plus, it’s brimming with health-boosting nutrients like B vitamins, fiber, and folic acid.

You’ve probably tried my Avocado Super Smoothie recipe, but if you want another variation, here’s a delicious recipe from one of my readers, Mary Lyon.

Her Lemon Curd Smoothie combines the tart flavor of lemon and pineapple with the rich goodness of avocado to create a unique but absolutely refreshing drink that you can enjoy anytime, anywhere.

Ingredients

½ organic pineapple
2 to 3 organic lemons
1 banana
2 avocados
Handful of organic greens such as spinach or watercress
1Tbsp. coconut oil

Procedure:

Keep the rind on the pineapple and lemon. Cut in small pieces and run through a juicer to separate the juice from the pulp (rinds should not be blended into juice).
Combine pineapple/lemon juice, banana, avocados, greens, and 1 Tbsp. coconut oil in blender, and blend until smooth.

This recipe makes 4 servings.

Tip: Get Creative When Making Smoothies

Some people tend to drink only one type of smoothie all the time, and while it might seem healthy and convenient, I would advise you to switch up your smoothie ingredients regularly instead so you can get a wide variety of nutrients in your diet.

I highly recommend this smoothie recipe because it truly a packs a nutritional wallop. Not only do you get healthy monounsaturated fats from avocado, but also vitamin C and flavonoids from lemon and pineapple, which can combat inflammation. The latter also contains fiber, and bromelain, an enzyme that is found to have cancer-fighting benefits.

Adding greens like spinach or watercress also upgrades the nutritional content of this smoothie. Many people dislike using greens in their blended drinks because they can be slightly bitter, but the lemon and pineapple will help mask their strong flavor.

I recommend using organic fruits (and vegetables) when making smoothies, as conventional produce are usually loaded with pesticides and genetically engineered. Plus, if you’re insulin- or leptin-resistant, I advise you not to overdo the fruit. In fact, you should limit your fructose intake to 15 grams of fructose per day from ALL sources, including whole fruit.

Spray This Simple 3-Ingredient Oil On Your Feet 10 Minutes Before Bed And Watch What Happens

I found this great recipe for an essential oils Sleepytime Spray - a safe, effective, and really nice-smelling sleep inducer. A quick spray on the soles of my feet and I'm out cold - and it even works for kids!

Remember sleep? I mean a Good Night’s Sleep. I’ve capitalized it because it’s important. But we often overlook a Good Night’s Sleep, and many of you (myself included) may not have gotten A Good Night’s Sleep in some time.

What does it even mean anyway? And more importantly – how do I get one?

A Good Night’s Sleep means 8 hours of shut-eye. There are tips and tricks on how to fall asleep – everything from Himalayan salt rock lamps to feng shui to dropping the temperature in your bedroom to a below-comfortable level.

Not Just A Good Night’s Sleep

You need 8 hours every night. Every night. EVERY. NIGHT. There – I’ve said it. Now that we’re on the same page, let’s flip to the next chapter: how to achieve this 8 hours of sleep using essential oils.
I’m guessing you’ve got some knowledge of essential oils, if so just skip this next part where I discuss the essentials of some essential oils (EO). The EOs you’ll need to make the 3-ingredient sleep spray are: Magnesium, Lavender, and Chamomile.

Chamomile: If you’re a gardener, tea-drinker, or just a great person that peruses Healthy Holistic Living daily, you’ll know about chamomile. It is a calming herb which, when brewed into tea, helps the drinker relax. As an EO chamomile is a potent and helpful sleep inducer.

Lavender: Lavender is another lovely flower as well as a calming, relaxing herb. In oil format, it is what we would consider “extremely potent” – sometimes a few drops on a pillowcase is enough. Most people use diluted lavender EO and, because of its potency, don’t use it for kids.

Magnesium: We’ve been talking a lot about magnesium lately: its internal and external uses and what that means for your digestion, cramps, anxiety, and sleeplessness. Magnesium EO can often make your skin tingle, especially if you’re magnesium-deficient, so the tough skin on your feet is a good place to apply magnesium EO. While not technically an “oil”, magnesium essential oil is called oil because of the look and feel – you can buy it (easier) or make it at home (cost-effective).

Why Foot Spray?

Foot baths are super-effective detoxes. With bentonite clay and water, for example, a simple foot bath can be prepared wherein you “literally see the toxins coming out of your feet”. Dubious, I know, but after soaking your feet the water turns dark and you feel a lot better. Even if it’s just a “placebo effect” it works quite nicely.

Your feet have the biggest and most pores of any place on your body, making them the perfect place to absorb much needed magnesium and oils which benefit your whole body. Your feet also have connections to the rest of your body – through touching specific points in your feet, you will do wonders for specific parts of your body.

Rick Simpson Healed 5.000 People from Cancer: This Is a Recipe That Kills All Types of Tumor in 90 Days – VIDEO

Hemp or cannabis oil was used by numerous people for centuries, but it was banned in the second half of the 20th century, as a result of the rise of the billion-dollar pharmaceutical industry.

Rick Simpson is a mechanical engineer and a self-taught doctor, who was diagnosed with skin cancer in 2002 and fought this disease using this miraculous oil. Nowadays, he is one of the greatest world activists for legalization of hemp oil. Using this treatment, he has cured over 5,000 people.

He attended a debate organized in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, on this topic. He states that hemp or cannabis oil can cure a vast variety of serious health issues, like diabetes, arteriosclerosis, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, asthma, psoriasis, as well as some of the deadliest forms of cancer.

Rick recounted his story to the Serbian magazine Telegraph “I always tell people – Cannabis will cure you, and you will see that at present, it is the best cure there is in the world!”

He began his story: “It was 2002. The doctors had given up on me because I’d had more than one unsuccessful operation on three pigmented lesions on my face’s skin. As soon as these were removed, they would reappear even more infected! Since I had been studying plants as a hobby for years, one day as I was looking at my wounds in the mirror, I remembered a study from the University of Virginia that said that THC, an active component of cannabis could cure cancer. I took some cannabis oil I had prepared beforehand from the cabinet and dripped a few drops directly on the wound.”

No significant results could be noticed at first. He bandaged his wounds again after applying the oil and waited for few days.

Then, he went on: “After four days I removed the bandages and I couldn’t believe my eyes! The wound was no longer there, and my skin was regenerated! I immediately started talking to people about how I had cured skin cancer with cannabis oil… Everyone laughed at me, but then eleven and a half years have passed, and the cancer still hasn’t returned.”

From then on, Simpson decided to help people in need for this cure, and his work resulted in thousands of cases effectively solved. His last case was an 80-year-old man who was dying from lung cancer.

“The man was all swollen from chemotherapy, open wounds on his legs and was barely breathing! After the doctors had given him no more than 48 hours, his son brought him to me. As I had recommended cannabis oil therapy, the young man had also consulted his father’s doctor. The doctor, of course, rejected such treatment, so in the end the young man took the oil from me, soaked a small cracker in it and gave it to his father.”

In less than thirty minutes, the old man finally started breathing normally again and his breathing completely stabilized during the night.

“Although the doctors “explained” that before death, his vital functions would return briefly, his son didn’t want to wait any longer so he checked his father out of the hospital the next morning. He also stopped all of his father’s prescribed therapy. After six weeks of cannabis oil treatment, the old man no longer needed insulin, and after three months he was completely cured from cancer,” says Rick.

Moreover, he stated that cannabis oil therapy is equally effective in all cases, for it knows no age limit. It can even be given to babies.

In order to supply fresh raw ingredients for his hemp oil, Rick soon started growing marijuana, but his field was raided four times in three years by the police. People who publicly claim to cure cancer are threatened 5-40-year imprisonment, according to laws in North America.

So, Jack was imprisoned for four days in Canada in 2005, for cultivating, owning and selling marijuana. However, at one point he was liable for 12 year imprisonment. He was fined 2,000 dollars.

“The worst of all was that the jurors were people whose dearest I had cured with cannabis oil. Even the judge knew it was all a farce! At one point he even told me that I should be rewarded, instead of tried! All knew, and no one could do anything! They didn’t even allow ten patients I have cured to testify! They also didn’t allow the doctors to come out on the bench, nor me to show a pile of medical documents about the effects of my oil. If you don’t know the meaning of a “coward court,” go to Canada and you will see what I mean,” claims Jack.

Rick claims that he has never sold weed, but only hemp oil, and as he was deeply disappointed by the Canadian government and corrupted doctors, he even put the recipe for hemp oil on the web page phoenixtears.ca.

According to him, the preparation of this miraculous oil is extremely easy. Simpson’s treatment starts with several drops of hemp oil three times a day.

“The usual dose I give to cancer patients is 60 grams within 90 days. And, it is never too late for the patient to start cannabis oil therapy. There isn’t such an excuse as, “It is late”… If you ask me, if I approve of smoking marijuana, I will tell you it isn’t as effective as cannabis oil, but it is scientifically proven that people who smoke marijuana live six years longer than those who don’t.”

Moreover, he adds that as opposed to Europe, North America still puts a blind eye when it comes to legalization of cannabis. He believes that every country in the world should allow their citizens to cultivate and use cannabis for medical purposes. He also points out that pharmacies should be opened for those who can’t cultivate it.

“Little is known that cannabis has been used as one of the most healing remedies hundreds of years before Christ. In the ancient Persian religious scripts, which among other things describe the most healing herbs, cannabis takes the first place,” concludes Rick.

His biggest wish and goal is to live in a world without cancer.

How to Make Your Own All-Natural Yogurt in 7 Easy Steps

Proper eating habits are significant part of living a healthy life and supporting your body. Little changes to your snacking routine, as avoiding snacking mindlessly and filling up on empty calories, can make big strides in your health goals.

Yogurt is a rich source of protein, excellent for your digestive health, with probiotics that strengthen your immune system. When you choose yogurt as a snack, you get a big serving of protein, probiotics, vitamins and minerals.

Its variety of probiotics is one of the most important advantages of the consumption of yogurt. Probiotics support healthy digestion, battle bad bacteria in your body and fight off infection.

Of course, store-bought yogurt is an excellent source of probiotics as well, but homemade yogurt ensures that you are using raw, organic milk and enjoy the greatest concentration of probiotics possible.

Research showed that there are numerous good reasons to eat yogurt, including an improvement in gastrointestinal health and a healthier immune system. However, its nutrients are enhanced when you prepare it at home, since you avoid all unnatural preservatives and chemicals.

Thus, taking the time to make your own yogurt allows you to enjoy a wide range of health benefits. If you learn how to prepare it, you will be able to have a healthy snack on hand anytime.

Homemade yogurt- recipe

The preparation of homemade yogurt is so incredibly easy, that there is no reason to buy commercially-made yogurt.

You will need:

2 tablespoons of ready-made yogurt as starter (choose organic one, no-sugar-added varieties)
1 quart of raw, organic milk (goat’s milk is best)
1 quart-sized Mason jar
1 ice cube tray
A food-grade thermometer
1 bath towel
4-quart saucepan
An electric heating pad
A wire whisk

Method of preparation:

In the saucepan, heat the milk, but avoiding scorching. Allow the milk to boil very slightly.

Then, pour it into the glass Mason jar and allow it to cool down to 110° (use the thermometer). Next, stir the starter yogurt into the milk and seal the jar. Wrap the jar in the heating pad and then again in the towel. Leave the jar in the turned-on heating pad for 7 to 10 hours.

After that time, gently remove the jar from the heating pad and transfer it to the refrigerator and let it sit overnight. The next morning, it will have formed into the ordinary yogurt texture. This means that your homemade yogurt is ready for consumption.

If you want to give it a little flavor boost, stir in fruit or spices to each individual serving.
