STUDY FINDS EATING VEGGIES REPAIRS CELL DAMAGE

A new study published in the journal Nature indicates that eating certain vegetables can repair damaged DNA.

Previous studies have found nutrients that can help prevent cancer, but this research shows that certain vegetables can actually reverse cell damage that has already occurred. Laboratory tests revealed that a compound called indole-3-carinol (I3C), found in broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage, can increase two specific protein levels that repair damaged DNA. "It is now clear that the function of crucial cancer genes can be influenced by compounds in the things we eat," said Eliot M. Rosen, MD, PhD.
 

Crunchy Rosemary Almonds

1 lb almonds - blanched
1t - 1T RealSalt
1 - 2 t powdered rosemary
2T or more of dried rosemary sprigs (large bunch fresh and dry it in the oven - with just the pilot light.  A dehydrator would work best.)
Olive oil

Soak the almonds over night (longer is OK too) in water mixed with the Real salt and powdered rosemary - in the refrigerator.  Drain almonds and dehydrate slowly until crunchy.  A VERY low oven works, but a temperature-
controlled dehydrator is best.  Keep the oven as low as possible, but so that it still comes on now and then. 

Stir almonds occasionally and taste-test until they are at the desired crispness.  This can take from 4 - 6 hours or even over night - depending upon your oven and the humidity, etc.

Pour almonds into a bowl and drizzle olive oil over them - just to lightly coat.  Stir in dried rosemary sprigs

Sprinkle a little extra RealSalt, if needed.  Be sure to taste the almond with a sprig of rosemary...divine!  

Store these in the refrigerator, just in case you don't get them dry enough - they keep indefinitely.

Roasted Veggie Green Salad
transitional

Lettuce -- use several varieties
Potatoes
Asparagus
Green Beans
Carrots
Mushrooms
Cauliflower
Onions
Broccoli
Any other favorite vegetable
Dried basil
Dried oregano
Garlic powder (or fresh garlic)
Olive oil
Other herbs, as desired
Dressing: olive oil, lemon juice, oregano

Chop the veggies into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a
large baking pan. Coat the veggies with olive oil
and sprinkle them with herbs and garlic.
Mix well to be sure that all of the veggies are coated
with oil/spray. Put the pan in a 350F oven. Stir the
veggies every 15-20 minutes until they are as done as you
like them. Put some of the veggies on top of the lettuce
mix.

For the dressing, mix 1.5 parts olive oil to 1 part lemon
juice and add a dash or two of oregano. Mix well and pour
over the salad.

This is great when the veggies are still warm from the
oven, but you can refrigerate leftover veggies and use
them cold, too. This is best as a salad with only a few
veggies -- Particularly  potato and asparagus. If you put
a whole bunch of different veggies in, your cooking time
will go up -- but you can also omit the lettuce in that
case and eat the veggies as an entire meal.

**** Note from BG regarding her daughter using this recipe ****

I wanted to write to tell you how Super Greens and the pH drops
have helped my newborn grandson.  My daughter was only home
from the hospital, one week, breastfeeding her baby was going fine,
until he began to projectile vomit.  She took him to the Pediatrician
that diagnosed him with Acid Reflex disease and said one in every
three babies have this. 

The doctor wrote a prescription, and said it would help.  Instead of
filling the prescription, my daughter decided to drink the
SuperGreens with the drops between every feeding.  The vomiting
ceased except at night, then she realized she was not drinking the
Greens for the night feeding.  When she began to drink the greens
around the clock the vomiting ceased.  She encouraged me to tell
you so you can tell others how well this worked.  The baby is now
five weeks old and has not taken any of the prescription and is
healthy and strong!  We are so grateful for the knowledge of
Alkaline vs. Acid, that we have learned through you and Dr. Young.

I am also grateful, that once again a 'cure' has been found rather
than 'treatment' and the reward of health is in knowing the truth
about our bodies.

Coconut Almonds

1 lb almonds - blanched
1 - 2 pkgs Stevia (or to taste)
Coconut flakes (opt.)

Coconut milk to cover almonds (from Wilderness Family Naturals - online at wildernessfamilynaturals.com), or made fresh from water and coconut - blended, or canned coconut milk.

Store these in the refrigerator for a sweet snack.
