  • Mangoes are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, and they are also an excellent way to replenish potassium lost through exercise or for those who are constantly “on the go.”
  • An average-sized mango can even contain up to 40 percent of your daily fiber requirement, thereby being a great way to curb constipation and irregularity.
  • Mangoes can also help to prevent certain types of cancer and help to lower blood cholesterol levels, too.

Recipe:  Jamaican Jerk Chicken Salad 

  • ½ cup prepared or purchased honey mustard dressing
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
  • 4 chicken breast halves without skin, boneless
  • 1 tablespoon Jamaican Jerk seasoning
  • 2 large fresh mangoes
  • 10 to 12 cups mixed greens 

Stir together honey mustard dressing and lime zest.  Cover and chill dressing while preparing chicken. 

Rinse chicken and pat dry; sprinkle with Jerk seasoning.  In a large skillet cook the seasoned chicken in hot oil over medium-high heat about 6 minutes on each side until browned and no longer pink.  Thinly slice each chicken breast.

Arrange warm chicken and mango atop greens on four plates; drizzle with the honey mustard dressing.

 

Recipe:  Mango Pork 

  • 2 medium ripe mangoes
  • 1 pork tenderloin, about ¾ pound
  • Cooking spray or olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Hot pepper sauce 

Put pulp of one mango in food processor or blender. Cut the other mango into small cubes.  Trim pork tenderloin and slice into 1-inch thick medallions.  Flatten slices lightly with hand.  Spray a skillet or medium saucepan with cooking spray or add a small amount of olive oil and heat on medium-high.  Brown pork for one minute on each side. Season each side with salt and pepper to taste.  Reduce heat and cook pork another five minutes to cook through.  Remove to plate and add mango to skillet or saucepan. Cook puree about, scraping up brown bits of pork, for about 30 seconds.  Add several drops of hot sauce and the mango cubes.  Toss cubes in puree while heating through.  Spoon sauce over pork and serve with pasta or hot cooked rice.

We are well into the cold and flu season and unfortunately everyone knows someone that has been down and out with cold and flu symptoms this year.  Or even worse, COVID, RSV or pneumonia.

Fortunately, there are some simple ways to help you stay healthy throughout the winter.

Here are five simple ways to stay cold and flu-free:

  1. Load up on garlic.  It contains allicin, which has antiviral properties.
  2. Sweat it out in the sauna.  Sweating helps to release toxins in the body.
  3. Get the proper amount of sleep.  Sleeping helps you to be more energized and helps your immune system fight off germs.
  4. Eat your chicken noodle soup.  It contains anti-inflammatory deliciousness that strengthens disease-fighting cells.
  5. Have your yogurt.  The probiotics help strengthen your immune system by increasing the number of white blood cells in your body.

Be open to change: Change can be difficult, but it can also be an opportunity for growth and development. Embrace change and be open to new experiences.

Set better boundaries: Setting limits is one of the most courageous things that we can do. It is a challenge to let people know what you will and won’t tolerate.

Get more sleep: We need 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night. Teenagers and babies need 10 to 12 hours. Make sure to get those ZZZ’s.

Meditate for 5 minutes every day: Meditation is an effective way for people to relax, harness life’s energy forces and come to realizations.

Do something scary: It can be warm and cozy in our safe space, but as the saying goes, you miss 100% of the shots that you don’t take. Do something scary and bold that takes you out of that comfort zone- wear the red lipstick, ask for that raise, try out for that play, and take that little idea that has been whispering in your head and give it a voice.

Plan a trip: Life is for enjoying all the beautiful places that this Earth has to offer. So, get out there and see it!

Eat fruits and vegetables at every meal: No matter how many you are currently eating, there is always room for more! They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, so imagine what an apple, orange, broccoli, and carrots will do!

Happy New Year to All and Here’s Hoping for the Best 2024 to you and yours!

Happy New Year!

As the excitement and merriment of the holidays and ringing in the New Year die down, it’s time to reflect on the past year and focus on building a better you in 2024.

Here are some ways that you can work on that goal and have a successful and mindful new year.

 

Practice gratitude: Take a few minutes every day to reflect on the things you are grateful for. This can help you develop a more positive outlook on life.

Learn a new skill: Trying your hand at a new skill or hobby can help you become a more interesting and diverse person. Consider taking up sport, trying to learn a new language or take a painting class. Whatever piques your interest, have at it!

Volunteer: Volunteering your time, talent, and energy to help others can be a rewarding experience. Consider helping a local non-profit or charity organization. 

Be kind to yourself: It’s important to be kind to yourself and practice self-care. This can include getting enough sleep, eating healthy, and taking the time to relax and recharge. 

Set realistic goals: Setting realistic goals can help you stay motivated and focused. Break down your larger goals into smaller ones. 

Connect with others: Building strong relationships with family and friends can help you feel more supported and connected to others. Connect with your loved ones on a regular basis.
