As we head into
Autumn, our tastes turn more to the warming herbs and spices as we
begin to pull out our slow-cookers, roasting pans and baking
sheets. Here are a few things that you may not know about our
favourite Autumn flavours:
Allspice is an antioxidant that protects against cancer, kills microorganisms and is used to treat flatulence and relieve indigestion.
Basil
may help to prevent cancer of the bladder and prostate. It aids in digestion and is used to treat flatulence and stomach upset. As an antibiotic, it may help to fight colds and the flu.
 Black
Pepper stimulates digestion, circulation, and
detoxification. It helps to relieve congestion and fever, and as an
antibiotic, may help to fight colds and the flu. In some people,
inhaling black pepper can help to reduce cravings for cigarettes
during withdrawal.
(Thanks to Watkins' conviction to quality and high oil content, they are able to offer the only "sneeze-proof" black pepper!)
Cayenne Pepper
and other hot peppers boost metabolism for several hours after they are eaten, increasing calorie burning. They contain antioxidants that help to prevent cancer, heart disease, and defend against toxic chemicals.
Cloves
are antioxidants which fight cancer, kill microorganisms and can help to relieve toothache pain.
Garlic
boosts the immune system and fights infection. It also fights cancer, lowers cholesterol and prevents blood clots, offering protection against heart disease and stroke.
Ginger
helps to relieve nausea, including motion sickness, is useful for treating arthritis, and helps to lower cholesterol and blood pressure.
Marjoram is effective as an
insecticide and as an antibiotic, and may help to fight colds and
the flu.

 Here's a little bit
of "good" news we saw on CTV NewsNet 'ticker', August 19, 2008
...
"Recovery from West Nile Virus takes about a
year: Most people who contract West Nile Virus from infected
mosquitoes - even those with some serious neurological complications
- can take heart that they will fully recover over time, Canadian
researchers say."
... well, there you
go! (Wouldn't it be easier
just to remember to apply your Watkins
Insect Repellent before you head out the
door? ... just a thought!  ) |
