RUTLAND, Vt. and NEW YORK--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--At the end of the first decade of the 21st century, life’s curves seem more stressful and beyond individual control.

Milk: The Deadly Poison - Robert Cohen

Listen here - Get the Facts - Spread the Word...

Len Foley speaks with Robert Cohen (the NOT Milk Man) in an informative 45-minute interview. This startling, engaging conversation exposes the misleading representation by the scientific community about milk and dairy product consumption.

Even a sip of commercial milk contains a vast array of artificial growth hormones, bovine leukemia viruses, bovine tuberculosis bacteria, and cow immunodeficiency viruses. Presented in an engaging, entertaining format, Robert Cohen backs up all his claims that milk harms health with excerpts from scientific journals and other respected medical professionals.

In this interview, he challenges the listener to consume no milk or dairy products for one week. According to Robert Cohen you will expel quarts of mucous from your body and an internal "fog" will be lifted from your system! Robert Cohen shatters America's greatest myth. This book proves that cow's milk does not do the human body any good.

Almond Butter - yumito!

A healthy alternative to peanut butter is almond butter. It has six times the calcium, three times the amount of
Vitamin E and twice the iron of peanut butter.

And this is a really delicious brand. Actually, I think I need to go eat some of it now...

Enjoy.

How to cut a Pomegranate - (and delicious juice recipe!)

It's pomegranate season, and if you've never had one...now is the time!

Pomegranate's are native to the Middle Eastern areas and are in season in North America from September to November.

If you've never had one before, you are going to be surprised. They are very different than any fruit you've probably ever had.


How to Cut a Pomegranate

Step 1: Cut the Top and Bottom

First thing you want to do, is cut a small slice off the top and the bottom of the pom (as they are often called from those that love them.) The reason you want to do this, is because it will be easier to stand up and cut the rest of it.




Step 2: Cut it Into Quarters



Yo! That's some funky looking fruit!

The seeds, known as arils, are what is eaten from this juicy fruit.

(Great to toss into salads btw...)

Step 3: Separate the Arils from the Pulp



Now here's the tricky part. You want to get a bowl and fill it up about halfway or a quarter with water. Now you are going to pull out all the seeds from the surrounding pulp.

If you don't do it in a bowl of water, you are going to stain anything thing that the juice touches.

Step 4: Scoop out the Seeds!



The other reason we do it in a bowl of water, is because the seeds will sink and the pulp will float.

Now you can just scoop out the pulp and strain the water to get the yummy seeds!

Step 5: Eat 'em Straight Up or Juice 'em!

You can eat the arils by themselves, throw them in a salad, or juice them...

If you eat them alone, you are going to get a lot of seed. That's why a lot of people like to juice them.

When you do juice them, combine it with something like apple. Pure pomegranate juice is good, but really intense. Intense in a good way, but it's nice to mix it up... Also one pomegranate can make a very small amount of juice. Mixing it with another fruit extends the flavor out further.

Here's a raw juice recipe from the folks at Raw Food, Right Now (a raw food blog), that highlights the full flavor of the pomegranate and the delicate sweet flavors of ripe juicy apples!



Pomegranate Apple Juice
by Heidi Ohlander

Serves 2

Ingredients:
Seeds from 1 Pomegranate
2 red apples (Cortland, Honeycrisp, etc.)

Directions: In a juicer, juice the seeds from the pomegranate as well as juice the apples. When you are finished juicing, stir the juice to combine the flavors. Pour into glasses.

Enjoy this healthy drink!
