Easy-to-Grow Herbs to Help Keep Your Water Tasting Fresh Through Winter
Staying Healthy
Through the Winter Months
Part One: Freshly
Infused Water
As autumn sweeps in, and cooler weather to follow, many new
challenges can present themselves when it comes to eating fresh. The great
habits we form during summer months, like eating fresh produce, growing fresh
herbs, and grilling out start to fade to classic comfort foods, hot beverages,
and baking. But there are some ways to hold onto our summer health habits. In
the coming weeks, I’ll highlight a few tips to help keep up the great strides
we've made over the summer.
To start, let’s talk about one of my favorite topics: healthy (and tasty) hydration. We’re always trying to find ways to make sure we’re getting enough
water every day; after all, some days, 8 cups of water can feel like a river! Summer (and our handy TNT infuser water bottles) definitely made it easier
for us to come up with creative (and healthy) combinations to flavor our water, and break the boredom.
In general, the rule of thumb is to pick a fresh fruit and a fresh herb, put
them in the infuser. Some of my favorites include: lemon & rosemary, lime
& cilantro, berries & mint, and apple & basil. Come fall, these
herbs aren't as readily available… or are they? As it turns out, growing herbs indoors is an
easy (and clean) way to stay healthy all year round. And this is the perfect time of year to start
preparing your indoor "garden."
The number and variety of herbs will depend on your own
preferences and space you have available. I have two windowsills above my
kitchen sink which would effectively hold up to 6 herbs during the fall and
winter. I typically go with my three favorites to prevent a cluttered appearance. Then, I can (and do) transplant them outside for the spring and summer.
And repeat the cycle each fall. Never having to start from seed again, and
never having to buy another herb plant or spice jar!
The three most prolific kitchen herbs are the ones in my own
kitchen: basil, rosemary, and orange-mint. I should note that any mint variety
works, I simply prefer the milder citrus flavors of the orange-mint.
To bring your herbs indoors from already existing plants is
incredibly easy:
- Simply take a cutting (see step 2 for more information about where to make the cut) and drop the cutting like a fresh flower into a vase or cup of water. I use leftover mason jars. In a couple short weeks, the cuttings will grow roots, and new growth ready to be consumed! To encourage continued growth, after a few weeks, you can move your cuttings (when they have visible roots) into potting soil in small pots on your window sill. You can leave the cuttings in your vases/cups/jars if you prefer, just remember to change the water every 5 days (sooner if the water looks cloudy).
- Make a cut from the main plant about 4-5 inches in length, measuring from the top of that stem.
- Remove all the small leaves (keeping just the top 2-4 leaves) and remove any flowers that have formed.
- Place the stem in a vessel of water, covering no more than 2-3 inches of the stem.Some plants have a harder time producing roots in water alone.
- If you find you have some of these (most notably Thyme, Sage, Stevia, and other herbs that have a woodier stem), take the cutting as described above, wait one day to let the cut itself heal, and then plant directly into a small pot with soil. Make sure to keep the soil moist though as even these cuttings need lots of water to produce roots.
- If you find aphids swarming around your herbs, simply spray a bit of cheap beer (the expensive stuff is for drinking, you know) on the leaves and soil!
Since you’ll need to wait for new growth before you start
plucking herbs for your infused water (or your favorite recipes), I like to
start this “propagation” in early fall, when I can keep the main plant for at
least a few more weeks.
So there you have it -- you can keep your freshly flavored water with no added calories even in the winter. And don't forget, even though it's colder outside, you'll still need to keep up with the proper amount of water for your body to run efficiently and provide you with optimal energy, health, and vitality.

The 6 Worst Coffee Drinks
Researchers studied coffee habits in New York and found that two-thirds of Starbucks’ customers opt for blended coffee drinks over regular brewed coffee or tea. The average caloric impact of the blended drinks was 239 calories. The regular coffee or tea, by comparison, was only 63 calories after factoring in added cream and sugar.
So even if you like your coffee sweet and light, you can strip away 176 calories every day, just by making this one swap—and shed a pound and a half a month. We've tracked down the worst dessert-in-a-cup crimes against weight loss, plus much healthier alternatives. Make these swaps to turn your neighborhood coffee shop of horrors into a tasty oasis of pick-me-ups—and stick with your new choices to keep the weight coming off.

Battling with Morning Sickness
Nausea during the first trimester is generally referred to as morning sickness, despite the chronological misnomer. As inconvenient and unwelcome as it is, morning sickness does usually go away just as quickly as it appears. The key to dealing with the hassle, is to consume foods and drinks separately and to consume as soon as the nausea dissipates. It's important to keep in mind that women who experience morning sickness can lose energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals and need to make sure that their electrolytes are balanced properly. If severe enough, encourage Mom to allow herself to be hospitalized, where they can help to rehydrate and prevent any further complications, such as ketosis.
Having Mom avoid triggers (smells, tastes, etc. that cause nausea to return) also helps. Often, the most tolerable foods are considered to be the old-fashioned BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast) or other foods that have little to no fat and high amounts of easily-digestible carbohydrates. If Mom consumes small, dry meals and drinks between meals, she is also less likely to experience severe nausea or vomiting. There is no cure for morning sickness, but rest assured that whatever makes Mom feel best, is what she should do. Simply remind her that it will go away soon and it will be very worth it!

Is Your Egg Fresh?
How to Tell if Your Egg is Old
Picture this: You’re in the midst of making banana bread. You’ve got the butter softened, the bananas mashed, the dry ingredients combined. Now you need your eggs. Gasp! They expired two weeks ago. What would you do in this situation: Use them and never look back, or hope your neighbors can rescue you with fresher eggs?
You can probably use them and never look back. If refrigerated, eggs typically stay safe well after their expiration date. But if the idea of using a slightly out of date egg makes you even the least bit nervous, here’s a simple test you can do to see if your egg is past its prime or perfectly acceptable.
The test: Fill a large pitcher or glass with water. Gently release the egg into the water. If the egg sinks, it’s still good. If it floats, it’s old.
Notice above I said floating eggs are old, not bad. Here’s why: Egg shells are porous. As eggs age, the air cell grows larger. Older eggs have larger air cells, so they float. Newer eggs have smaller air cells, so they sink. The USDA says even eggs that float may still be good. Before you toss the floater, crack it open. If it’s discolored or giving off a foul odor, it’s best to toss it. If it looks and smells like a normal egg, you’re most likely safe to use it.

Healthy Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
Source: www.godairyfree.org
Yield: 24 muffin cup cookies or about 3 to 4 dozen snack cookies
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
•2-1/2 cups rolled oats, divided (certified gluten-free, if needed)
•2/3 cup coconut sugar (can sub brown sugar)
•2 tablespoons flax seeds
•3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•1/2 teaspoon baking powder
•1/4 teaspoon baking soda
•1/4 teaspoon salt
•1/4 cup grapeseed, rice bran, canola or melted coconut oil*
•1/4 cup So Delicious Dairy Free Plain Coconut Milk Yogurt
•2 tablespoons maple syrup
•1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•2/3 cup dried cranberries
•2/3 chopped pecans or 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (see post above for other add-in options)
Instructions:
1.Preheat your oven to 350ºF and either grease or line 24 muffin cups (not necessary if using silicone muffin cups) or line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2.Place 1 cup of the oats, sugar (if using coconut sugar), and flax seeds in a spice grinder or food processor and whiz until powdered. Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl.
3.Stir in the cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, until well combined.
4.Add the oil, yogurt, maple, and vanilla, and whisk to combine.
5.Fold in the remaining 1-1/2 cups whole oats, cranberries, and pecans. It will be a chunky mixture.
6.For (my favorite) muffin cup cookies, press 2 tablespoons of the dough into each cup using damp hands. For little cookies, drop by the tablespoonful onto your baking sheet – they won’t spread much.
7.Bake the muffin cup cookies for 15 to 20 minutes. Bake the little cookies for about 12 minutes.
8.Let them cool in the cups or on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes (they will firm up and be easier to handle), before removing them to a plate or cooling rack.
Notes:
Coconut Oil Conundrum: If using coconut oil, be sure that your yogurt is brought to room temperature. Cold ingredients will result in solid bits of coconut oil!

Lift a Little: The Best Osteoporosis Exercises
At any age, exercise is essential for maintaining healthy bones. If you exercised regularly as a child and young adult, you probably helped maximize your bone production, most of which occurs by age 35. If you continued to exercise into middle age and beyond, you probably helped reduce your risk of developing the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis.
Still, it's never too late to start a bone-healthy exercise program, even if you already have osteoporosis or are at high risk of developing osteoporosis.
For years, we've thought we understood osteoporosis: it's a disease in which the bones become more and more fragile as they lose density, usually due to aging, menopause, and other factors like lack of calcium and vitamin D in the diet. But today, advances in research are shedding new light on osteoporosis, which is predicted to affect as many as half of all Americans over age 50 by the year 2020. From diagnosis to prevention to osteoporosis treatment, new research is turning our old understanding...
Although people with osteoporosis may believe that exercise increases the risk of injury from broken bones, the truth is quite the opposite. A regular, properly designed exercise program may actually help prevent the falls and fall-related fractures that so often result in disability and premature death. That's because exercise strengthens bones and muscles, and improves balance, coordination, and flexibility, which is especially important for older adults and people who have been diagnosed with osteoporosis.
According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, the best exercises for building and maintaining bone density are:
Weight-bearing exercise, such as walking, that makes you work against gravity while staying upright.
Muscle-strengthening exercise, such as weight lifting, that makes you work against gravity in a standing, sitting, or prone position.
Nonimpact activities such as balance, functional, and posture exercises also may benefit people with osteoporosis. Although these exercises don't build or maintain bone density, they may increase muscle strength and decrease the risk of falls and fractures.
Medical Evaluation Is Key
If you have osteoporosis or are at risk of osteoporosis, most experts believe that supervised weight-bearing exercise and strength training exercise is safe and effective. Studies of postmenopausal women report that aerobic, weight-bearing, and strength training exercise can increase bone mineral density in the spine, and that a simple walking program can increase bone mineral density in the spine and hip.
Before beginning any exercise program, it's important to undergo a thorough medical examination to determine which activities are safe for you.
There is no single exercise regimen that's best for everyone with osteoporosis. Each regimen should be specifically tailored to the individual patient based on a medical evaluation of:
fracture risk
muscle strength
range of motion
level of physical activity
fitness
gait
balance
During the evaluation, your doctor also will consider any other chronic conditions that can affect your ability to exercise, such as obesity, high blood pressure, and heart disease. If you're at risk for osteoporotic fracture, the National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends that your doctor refer you to a specially trained physical therapist for a through physical assessment and exercise prescriptions that focus on body mechanics and posture, balance, gait and transfer training, resistance weights, and progressive aerobic activities.
Weight-Bearing Exercises for Osteoporosis
If your doctor determines that it's not safe for you to perform high-impact weight-bearing exercises, he or she may recommend low-impact weight-bearing exercises that are less likely to cause fractures and also build and maintain bone density. These include:
elliptical training machines
low-impact aerobics
stair-step machines
walking (either outside or on a treadmill machine)
If you're new to exercise, or haven't exercised for awhile, you should aim to gradually increase your level of weight-bearing exercise to 30 minutes per day on most days of the week.
Muscle-Strengthening Exercises for Osteoporosis
Programs that maintain muscular strength can slow the loss of bone mineral density associated with osteoporosis, and may help prevent fall-related fractures. Examples of muscle-strengthening exercises include functional movements such as standing and rising on your toes, lifting your own body weight, and the use of equipment such as:
elastic exercise bands
free weights
weight machines
Experts recommend performing strength-training exercises two to three days per week.
Nonimpact Activities for Osteoporosis
Certain nonimpact activities can improve your coordination, flexibility, and muscle strength and reduce your risk of falls and fractures while increasing your mobility and overall quality of life.
Balance exercises such as Tai Chi can strengthen your leg muscles, and help you stay steadier on your feet. Posture exercises can improve your carriage, reduce the "sloping" shoulders associated with osteoporosis, and decrease your risk of fractures, especially in the spine. Functional exercises can improve your ability to perform everyday activities such as getting in and out of bed and chairs, and climbing stairs.
Balance, posture, and functional exercises can be performed daily.
Nonimpact programs such as yoga and Pilates can improve strength, balance, and flexibility in people with osteoporosis. But some of the movements associated with these programs -- including forward-bending exercises -- can increase the risk of fracture. If you're interested in such programs, ask your physical therapist to tell you which movements are most likely to be beneficial or harmful.
Although exercise can benefit almost everyone with osteoporosis, it's important to remember that it's only one component of an overall treatment program. Other essential lifestyle recommendations include a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, maintaining a normal body weight, and avoiding tobacco use and excessive alcohol consumption. You also may require osteoporosis medications to either build or maintain bone density. By working with your doctor, you can develop an osteoporosis treatment program that's right for you.
