Avocado the healthy fat

Avocado the Healthy Fat

Avocados are considered a healthy fat. I think of them as a vegetable when I'm cooking, but technically they are a fruit with their seed in the middle. I've also read that they are related to berries, because they grow on trees and have the flesh around a single seed. As a child and young adult, I never ate avocados. I don't even remember seeing them in the store when I was young. But at that point in my life, I probably ate the same things, maybe on only about 8 or 10 different vegetables each week. Certainly not eating a variety of 30 different plant-based foods each week (including vegetables, fruits, seeds and nuts.) I love eating avocados and they keep me full for a long...

Many of us have heard about the health benefits of dark chocolate. Dark chocolate with 70% or more cacao solids has many vitamins and minerals, such as iron, magnesium, zinc, copper and phosphorus as well as antioxidants. I try to only eat it during the day, as it also has some caffeine in it which interferes with my sleep. Unfortunately recent findings of a Consumer Report study has been in the news about high levels of heavy metals in several brands of dark chocolate including Trader Joe's, Green & Black's, Theo and Lily's (from Hershey.) The news of this report was dated December 15, just in time for Christmas gifts. Of course, I received two nice big bars of dark chocolate in my stocking. The same article said that...
