    What is the measurement in Step 4? 3/4 what? Also, these take an hour to bake? the beef meatballs I make, which are slightly smaller than a golf ball, they are usually done in about 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. Just wanting to make sure I don't over cook these. Thanks!

It is important to eat breakfast in the mornings. After the body does not eat throughout the night, the body goes into starvation mode. When the body is in starvation mode, the metabolism slows, and the body retains as much nutrients as possible. By eating breakfast and introducing food for the day, the metabolism speeds up and weight loss is made possible. 2.       Stay fueled. Instead of eating 3 large meals a day, eat 4 to 6 small meals throughout the day. In eating smaller meals more frequently, the body uses most of the nutrients it takes in and refrains from storing extra calories. Another benefit of eating smaller meals throughout the day is that this type of eating will keep mu...

Hello Spring Season, Goodbye Winter Blues!

http://www.madgene.com/wallpaper.php?view=105 As spring quickly approaches, your body rejuvenates and gives your mind and body both strength and power. The spring quickly begins nursing your body back into a healthy state, making winter blues a part of the past. Two ways to take advantage of the new season are to take advantage of the sun and of the new crops in season. 1.       Take advantage of the sun :   Vitamin D: The body makes vitamin D when it is exposed to the Ultraviolet B (UVB) rays of the sun. The Vitamin D Council recommends 20-30 minutes (be careful not to burn) of sunlight exposure each day.

The Benefits of Vitamin D

http://maxlindatravel.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/img_1591.jpg In addition to aiding in bone health, Vitamin D may prevent viruses from affecting our cells. We obtain Vitamin D from our diets as well as is consumed in our diets as well as made in the body. Vitamin D2 is manufactured by plants while Vitamin D3 is manufactured in our skin when exposed to ultraviolet-B (UVB) rays from sunlight. Since Vitamin D is made in the skin, it interacts with sunlight. Therefore, there is a natural tendency for many individuals to make less Vitamin D3 in the winter months. This can be compensated by consuming plant sources which synthesize Vitamin D2. Monterey mushrooms, for example are a great source of Vitamin D. It is important to continuously monitor our Vitamin D levels. Increasing our intake of Vitamin D during the winter months will aid the body in maintaining our Vitamin D levels and prevent the drop during the winter months. According to Real-Depression-Help.com , decrease in sunligh...
