Is Tilapia Dangerous ?

2011-12-08T05:40:00.000-08:00

Avoid Tilapia?

What’s this I hear about tilapia being dangerous? I thought eating fish is good for you.

Answer (Published 10/28/2008)

Eating fish is good for you. But the type of fish matters - and this was true long before the alarming study about the potential drawbacks of tilapia was published in July 2008. I recommend consuming fish with high levels of omega-3 fatty acids.

Dr Weil

Tilapia, an increasingly popular choice of fish in the South, may not be a healthy diet choice after all, according to research released today by Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

The researchers found that farm-raised tilapia — the fifth most popular fish consumed in the United States -- could be potentially dangerous to people dealing with heart disease, arthritis and asthma.www2.journalnow.com

'Iran's saffron exports to hit 100 tons'

2011-02-03T00:25:00.000-08:00

Photo: guardian.co.uk

Saffron harvest in Iran

Iran is busy bringing in the annual harvest of saffron, a spice known to many as 'red gold' because it can fetch up to £1,000 per kilo on the world markets, largely due to its fiddly and labour intensive production process

Iran's saffron exports will increase by more than 10 percent to top an annual 100 tons by the end of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20).

Head of Iran's Union of Sellers and Exporters of Saffron Gholam Reza Miri said the country exported 90 tons of the precious spice last year.

Iran, the largest saffron producer in the world, exports saffron to 46 countries including European and Persian Gulf countries, IRIB quoted Miri as saying.

Salawat Sweetens Honey

2010-12-22T20:06:00.000-08:00

Once the Holy Prophet (s) was sitting with Amir al-mu’minin 'Ali (a) in the middle of a garden, which contained many trees, and was very fertile.

A bee came towards them and started circling above them for quite some time...

The Holy Prophet (s) addressing 'Ali ('a) said: "Indeed this bee has made us his guests today. It said to me: 'I have placed for you some honey in that specific place. So send your brother Amir al-mu’minin to the place so that he may bring the same.'"

Thereupon Imam 'Ali ('a) stood up and brought the honey.

[Then] the Prophet (s) addressing the bee said:
"O bee, surely your food is from the roses of flowers, and that is bitter [in taste]; so how does it change into sweet honey?"

The bee replied: "O Messenger of Allah, surely the sweetness of the honey comes from the blessing of mentioning your blessed name and the name [s] of your pure progeny; when we draw the nectar of the flowers we are inspired to invoke blessings upon you and your infallible progeny three times; therefore when we eat, the mention of salawat turns our honey sweet."

[Khazinat al-Jawahir was lama’aat al-Anwaar, p. 586]

Asparagus

2010-09-24T06:08:00.001-07:00

Three types of asparagus on a shop display, with white asparagus at the back and green asparagus in the middle. The plant at the front is Ornithogalum pyrenaicum, is commonly called wild asparagus.

It is believed that asparagus can cure cancer of the bladder, Hodgkin's disease (cancer of the lymph glands), lung cancer and skin cancer. Journal `The elements of Materia Medica', edited in 1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, stated that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones. He even referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power of asparagus in dissolving stone.

How To Prepare for consumption<

1) Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and store in the refrigerator.

2) Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily, morning and evening.

Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink. This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases.

Asheh Mast ~ Persian Herb & Yogurt

2010-09-24T06:06:00.000-07:00

by My Persian Kitchen on December 7, 2009

Ingredients

2 onions

4 cloves garlic

1/2 lb extra lean ground beef

1/2 cup chickpeas, dried

1/3 cup rice

1 bunch parsley, equivalent to 4 cups

1 bunch cilantro, equivalent to 3 cups

1 bunch mint, equivalent to 2 cups

1 bunch green onions or chives

1/4 + 1/8 tsp turmeric

yogurt

This is a pretty easy ash to make. These few ingredients make up for a very delicious and hearty soup.

Saute one of the onions and 3 garlic cloves until translucent. Add 1/4 tsp turmeric give it a stir. Then add chickpeas. Give them all another stir. Add 4 cups of water, a dash of salt, cover and cook for one hour.

In the mean time, grate the second onion and one garlic clove. Place in a bowl and add 1/8 tsp turmeric, salt and pepper.

Mix well together. Add meat and mix it all well.

Make meatballs with the meat mixture about the size of a cherry.

Add rice to the beans along with 3 cup of water. Cook for 15 minutes longer.

Rough chop your herbs.

Add meatballs to the beans and rice. Add salt & pepper to adjust seasoning.

Add herbs cover and cook for 2 hours on low. While cooking make sure to stir the pot every so often to make sure that the bottom doesn’t stick. Further adjust seasoning if needed.

Once the Ash is ready you can either add 2 cups of yogurt to the pot or a dollop of yogurt to each bowl. If you are adding the yogurt to the pot, let it warm through gently making sure it does not boil.

This recipe made a nice pot full of ash. Remeber that you can always freeze the leftovers and eat them later!

Pumpkin and Butter Bean Soup

2010-09-24T06:03:00.000-07:00

Ingredients

20ml (1 tablespoon) oil
1 1/2 medium onions, peeled and finely diced
3 medium cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1 teaspoon ground cumin seeds
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Pepper, to taste
750ml (3 cups) vegetable stock
750g peeled, deseeded butternut pumpkin* cut into 2cm cubes
400g can butter beans, drained and rinsed (this should yield about 230g butter beans)

Methods

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook for two minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium and cook for a further three minutes or so, until onion has softened but not browned.

Add garlic, cumin, curry powder, salt and pepper to the saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 50 seconds until spices are fragrant but garlic has not browned.

Add stock, pumpkin and beans to the saucepan.

Increase heat to high and bring mixture to the boil. Cover saucepan (have the steam vent on the lid open), and reduce heat so that the mixture is simmering. Simmer for about 30 minutes, until pumpkin is very soft.

Puree mixture with a stick blender until smooth, and then serve or store. Alternatively, set soup aside to cool for about 10 minutes, and then puree in a blender in batches. When pureeing hot soup in a blender, we have the blender no more than one third full. We leave the lid plug out, cover the hole in the lid with a few paper towels or a clean tea towel, and hold the lid down while pureeing. Reheat soup and serve, or store until required.

The soup can be reheated in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, or in the microwave.

Serve the soup in warm bowls with crusty bread.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer. When freezing the soup, we freeze it in single-serve portions.

*Butternut pumpkin is also known as butternut squash.

Curried Eggplant Soup

2010-09-24T06:02:00.000-07:00

Ingredients

1 large eggplant (or 2 smaller ones)
1 large onion, diced
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and diced
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (drained canned tomatoes or fresh)
1 1/2 -2 tablespoons best-quality curry powder
1 pinch cayenne (or more, to taste)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons agave nectar (or other sweetener)
1 15-ounce can great northern beans, rinsed and drained

1/2 cup soy milk or other non-dairy milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
6 tablespoons soy yogurt (optional)
Parsley or cilantro, chopped (optional)

Methods

Preheat oven to 400F. Peel the eggplant and slice it 1/4-inch thick. Place the slices on a sprayed baking sheet and cover with foil. Roast until eggplant is very tender, about 30 minutes.

Spray a non-stick skillet with canola oil and get it hot. Add the onions and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the diced apple and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato, curry powder, cayenne, soy sauce, and agave nectar and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the reserved 1 cup of broth and cook another minute. Pour this mixture into the food processor with the eggplant.

Add the beans to the food processor and puree until it forms a thick paste. Scrape the paste into the pot with the broth and eggplant, stir well, and add the non-dairy milk. Season to taste with salt and pepper (and more curry powder if necessary). Turn down to very low and barely simmer for 15 minutes.

Serve hot or chilled, stirring in one tablespoon of soy yogurt into each bowl (if desired) and sprinkling with parsley or cilantro.

2010-09-24T05:59:00.001-07:00

Ingrediens

2 pounds asparagus, ends trimmed
2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 small onion, sliced
2 cups warm vegetable broth or “no-chicken” broth
1/2 ounce raw cashews (1 heaping tablespoon) or 1 tablespoon cashew butter
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
salt to taste
grated peel of 1/2 lemon or orange

Directions

Preheat oven to 450F. Place the asparagus spears on a baking sheet lined with a silicone liner or parchment paper. Roast for 10 minutes. Turn asparagus and sprinkle the onion and garlic over it. Roast for about 10 more minutes, until asparagus is very tender. If anything looks like it’s browning too much, take it out. (Important Note: These directions are for thicker asparagus. Thin asparagus may take much less time so start with 6 minutes, turn and add onions and garlic, and check again in 5.)

While the asparagus is roasting, blend 1/2 cup of the broth with the cashews and pepper until smooth.

When the asparagus is done, select several of the best-looking spears, remove the tops, and set aside to use as garnish. Cut the remaining asparagus into pieces and put it and the onion and garlic into the blender, along with the remaining broth. Cover the blender and blend on high until perfectly smooth.

If you’re using a Vita-Mix, you can blend it on high for a few more minutes until piping hot (remove the center cup and cover with a kitchen towel to allow steam to escape). Otherwise, pour the soup into a saucepan and heat until hot, stirring frequently. Add salt, if needed, to taste.

Pour into bowls and sprinkle with grated lemon or orange peel. Garnish each bowl with the reserved asparagus spears and serve hot.

A type of blood fat different from cholesterol may play a key role in heart disease, a study suggests.

Cambridge University researchers looked at the role of triglycerides, which is produced in the liver and derived from foods such as meat and dairy products.

The analysis of 350,000 people from 101 previous studies found those with higher levels of the blood fat were more likely to have heart disease.

Bananas Health Information

2010-05-04T22:44:00.000-07:00

A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class about bananas. He said the expression "going bananas" is from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on:

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator! !!
This is interesting.
After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology inAustria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips.. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady..

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance.. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time! I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth. Amazing fruit !!!

Walnuts

2010-05-03T20:29:00.000-07:00

A very common ingredient found in many baking items. Walnuts are mainly grown in California and Oregon. They are high in protein.

Health Tips

1. There are few foods that are as nutritiously complete and good for the human body as walnuts. For more than a dozen years, research by highly-respected scientific and clinical experts has continued to reveal that this "Super Food" is packed with nutrients that positively affect the body on a multitude of levels. Walnuts are unique as one of the most nutrient-dense whole food sources of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential omega-3 fatty acid. Numerous studies have concluded that omega-3s help reduce the potential for heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and clinical depression. The bottom line is that walnuts contribute nutrients essential to a healthy lifestyle. Eating walnuts is one of the easiest things a person can do to improve their health. Best of all, they taste great and are ideally suited for inclusion in any diet, as part of meals or snacks.

Herbal Legacy of Iran

This travel blog photo's source is TravelPod page: Some of the teas and herbs, Mashhad, Iran

Only a bit larger than the state of Alaska, Iran is among the most geographically diverse countries in the world. This ancient nation can be divided into 12 separate geographic environments and boasts 5 major climates. No wonder Iran is so diverse when it comes to the natural herbal remedies it produces.

This astounding diversity in Iran's geography allows Iran to host more than 7500 species of plants--around 1800 of which are used in medicine. Many of Iran's most precious herbal treasures are plants found nowhere else in the world.

The World Health Organization tells us that there are currently 30 companies producing natural herbal remedies in Iran. The government of Iran, in contrast to the regulatory agencies here in the U.S., requires all herbal remedies to be manufactured to the same quality standards as pharmaceutical drugs.

What is the best time to visit Iran?

2010-04-25T07:30:00.000-07:00

Generally spring and autumn are the best time to visit Iran even if the weather may, on occasions, be a little uncertain with short lapses into either the cold of winter or the heat of summer. More accurate is mid-April to early June, and late September to early November. These times avoid the long, cold northern winter, the Iranian New Year (late March) and the summer.

* If the heat doesn't keep you away, take note that prices along the Caspian coast can quadruple during summer.
* If you would like to go skiing then you should plan your visit sometime between November and March.
* The rose and rosewater festival takes place between April and June. The hunting season in Iran commences on 23 October and lasts until 19 February; however the high season of foreign hunters normally coincides with January holidays.
* Many people prefer not to visit Iran during Ramazan, the Muslim month of fasting, when most restaurants are closed between dawn and dusk.

Yogurt

2010-04-25T04:59:00.000-07:00

Is a wonderful quick, easy and nutritious snack and with other fermented dairy products (like kefir) they are a dietary staple.

Yogurt is a very good source of calcium, phosphorus, riboflavin-vitamin B2 and iodine. Yogurt is also a good source of vitamin B12, pantothenic acid-vitamin B5, zinc, potassium, protein and molybdenum.

These 10 nutrients alone would make yogurt a health-supportive food with potential inclusion of live bacteria.

Eating a cup a day of yogurt that contains live L. acidophilus cultures may help prevent vaginal yeast infections. In one study, a daily 1-cup serving over six months reduced recurrent yeast infections threefold. Acidophilus not only produces an environment that repels yeast, but also releases hydrogen peroxide, which halts the growth of other microorganisms.
