Avacado pears great food

A fantastic food to make sure that you are including in your diet are avocado pears. They are a great source of oleic acid, potassium, carotenoid lutein, they are also rich in folate and they taste great.

Avocado pears do a wonderful job of helping your body to absorb carotenoids of other vegetables when eaten together.

The avocado pear is normally displayed by super market along side other fruits as it should be. Avocado’s are normally eaten in salads and as such are thought of as a vegetable. They are however a fruit which was discovered in Mexico approximately 291 BC. Their popularity has grown immensely and in 1995 40% of American households ate avocado pears.

Avo’s as they are sometimes affectionately referred to do not ripen until picked. The fresher the fruit the harder it is. When choosing an avo shake it gently and if the pip is loose then it is older and you may want to choose another one.

To ripen an avocado get a brown paper bag and wrap the fruit in the bag leaving it between 2- 5 days at room temperature. If you are impatient a banana or apple in the same bag will speed up the ripening process.

A resource for a whole lot of recipes that use avocado can be found at About Home cooking not all of these are recommended for a yeast infection.

No thrush naturopath healing

Here is a story from some one who emailed me recently. It is great to hear other people’s success stories with beating ill health. And it is wonderfully encouraging to those that have suffered for ages with the problem of yeast infections.

Dear Lisa

After approx six plus months of very much stress due to vaginal thrush and antibiotics from the doctor, I consulted a naturopath. I do not like to take antibiotics of any sort so after months of taking them (and yes they were working but as soon as I stopped, within a day the thrush would return), I consulted a naturopath. Within days of taking herbs in liquid form, NO thrush. Life has returned to normal and is happy days again.

Kind regards,
