Longevity Live to 140 Years of Age in Good Health ?

Every 7 seconds someone in the US turns 50. Would you like to extend your lifespan? Did you know that the Hunza people frequently live to between 120 and 140 years of age, and are HEALTHY for all that time? Some people say it is the water they drink, the minerals they consume, certain foods they eat, their non-toxic environment, or stress-free life. We address all of these issues on this web site. What we are suggesting is that those who follow the 8 step program to prevent cancer could easily live 40 - 60 more years than is presently the norm, and enjoy good health all that time. A longer, more active and healthier life is the carrot, and cancer and other disease is the stick to get people to adopt a healthy diet and lifestyle. Are you interested?

Healthier Preparation Methods for Cooking

When you prepare and cook meals at home,

you have better control over the nutritional content

and the overall healthfulness of the foods you eat.

(You can also save money.)

Here are some tips for sensible home kitchen:

Healthier Preparation Methods

Using Healthier Methods of Food Preparation

• Stock up on heart-healthy cookbooks and recipes for cooking ideas.
• Use “choice” or “select” grades of beef rather than “prime,” and be sure to trim the fat off the edges before cooking.
• Use cuts of red meat and pork labeled “loin” and “round,” as they usually have the least fat.
• With poultry, use the leaner light meat (breasts) instead of the fattier dark meat (legs and thighs), and be sure to remove the skin.
• Make recipes or egg dishes with egg whites, instead of egg yolks. Substitute two egg whites for each egg yolk.
• For recipes that require dairy products, try low-fat or fat-free versions of milk, yogurt and cheese.
• Use reduced-fat, low-fat, light or no-fat salad dressings (if you need to limit your calories) on salads, for dips or as marinades.
• Use and prepare foods that contain little or no salt.
